At the Theaters

"In the Nick of Time, at the KruK.
Melodrama OF the sort that is active, and
oft times tense without being coarse and
common, several pleasing vaudeville num-
bers and a goodly portion of comedy are
blended acceptably in the last offering OF
the regular season at the Krug. 'In the
Nick of Time began a weekend engage
ment Thursday night, and although not
patronized by a crowded house, made quite
a hit with those who attended. II is diff
ferent from the usual melodrama and
lacks that sameness OF situations and III
makes which so often makes that class OF
play tiresome. Neither is 1t made comic
by ever-present gun play and impossible
deeds of heroism. Its situations are extra
ordinary enough to make the piece a go
without giving II a flavor OF impossibility.
And as a welcome bit of variety. there Is
no hero of the Johnnie -on-the-Spot order
to be always playing to the gallery. The
character who is the hero is a hero sure
enough. but OF the sort that is lifelike and
not exaggerated. A feature of note is the
presentation Of a scene depicting a vaude-
Vile entertainment that becomes enllvened
by a tragedy in one of the boxes, and a
climax of tenseness and fascination. Miss
Della Clarke. who heads the COMPANY and
also wrote the play, is we'll adapted to her
role and plays It with relish. Although
handicapped by a bad cold last night, she
succeeded In carrying the part with apt
ness. The rest of the large company sup
ports her well and makes the production a
we'll rounded evening of entertainment. II
Is staged in nine scenes with special set
tings.

MYSTERIES OF DEATH VALLEY
Man steadily Penetrating the For
bidden spot I'm Search of
Treasure,

Slowly but surely, inch by inch, in the
face of drouth~ and intense heat, man
is solving the mysteries OF Death Valley,
and one by one its hitherto unlocked
treasure vaults are being thrown open
to add 10 the wealth of the world. There
is gold, in large and small quantities
throughout the length OF the valley, par
ticularly at Skidoo and other neighboring
camps In the P~ansminta; there is copper
aplenty, enough borax to supply the entire
world for many a year. and now 1t seems
probable that the district will soon be
known as a large producer of rock salt.
These salt deposits are found in the
foothills of the Avakatw mountains, at
the southern end OF Death Valley, and
within sixteen miles of the Tonopah &
Tidewater railroad. There are four dis
tinct bodies. known as the Death Valley
King, Salt Basin and JUMBO salt mines.
The salt appears TO lie in ledge form with
we'll defined walls. particularly on the
upper or hanging walls.
The deposits have been well known TO
prospectors for many years, but it was
not until the completion of the railroad
thai they assumed any commercial value.
Years ago some OF the material was
reighted to the Tecopa mine for use in
a chlorination mill in use on the property,
when It was mined for its high surface
values of silver.
The Death Valley mine consists OF eighty
acres, and II is upon this ground that the
larger part of the present development
OF the deposits has been done. The show
ing is 800 wide by 1000 feet in length. the
salt being covered with wash gravel and
mud to a minimum depth OF ten feet.
Where the salt has been most exposed
to the elements It has dissolved and mixed
with the mud and graveL forming an in
crustation harder even than the rock salt.
The development consists OF numerous open
cuts, tunnels and shafts, all penetrating
the surface incrustation and showing pure
salt in the face. It is estimated that there
are 10000 ton of salt already exposed in
this deposit.
The King mine lies one mile TO the north
OF the Death Valley property and shows
salt for more than one hundred feet In
width, traceable for 100 feet. In one place
the rock salt stands fifty feet above the
surrounding foundation. The Salt Basin
property lies one mile further to the south
east. on what Is really a continuation OF
the King deposit. Two miles further south
east Is the Jumbo mine. showing a body
OF sale twenty-five feet across.-Los

NEW YORE'S DEBT CAPACITY

NEW YORK, April S.-Should the opinion
OF Referee Benjamin +. Tracy, on the
debt limit of New York City rendered to-
day, he upheld by the courts, the city's
prospects for extension of subway con
struction to relieve the present contested
transportation conditions would he appear
to be excellent. The report finds that the
borrowing capacity OF the city on June
80 last was slO6. 2O5. IA, and is presumably
several millions greater at present. Mr..
Tracy was appointed by the supreme court
as referee in injunction proceedings. the
determination Of which hinged upon the
city's actual debt limit.
Calculating the permanent debt of the
city at sSlT,S4 345, the referee found that
the constitutions borrowing W at the
close of the last fiscal year was more than
sos, OOO. 600. and that TO calculate the present
debt limit the increase In the assessment
roll Tor 1903 must be allowed for. AS the
assessment roll showed an increase OF
more thar $780, 900. the apparent con-
cluion is that the present borrowing ca
pacity of the city Is probably nearly $780,
10000. This estimate is far larger than
any previously made.

PRETTY PARK is PLANNED
THE WORK OF BEAUTIFYING
THE SCHOOL GROUNDS is
NOW UNDER WAY.

Under the direction of Superin-
tendent F. E. Land and DR.. L. La
mar, chairman of the city school
boards committee on buildings and
grounds, the work of improving and
identifying the grounds at the public
school building is progressing.
All of the front yard has been
broken and sodded in bermuda grass.
and the different grades have start
ed flower beds. The sidewalks in
front of the lot have been put in
shape, and a cinder and gravel walk
laid from the street to the building.
A running track one-fifth Of d
mile in length has been laid out, and
the grounds in the rear of the build
ing partially cleaned up.
A semi-circular driveway will soon
be made in front of the build
ing, and a longer driveway through
the grounds is contemplated. The
next object in view is to get rid Of
the water that washes the grounds
so badly during heavy rains This
has been taken up by the city
council and referred to the street
committee with power to act
Hedges of lockwood to line the drive
ways and walks, row of rose bush
es to border the lawn, a fountain
and fish pool, tennis courts and GRO
quet grounds, swings and other
amusements will make this a most
attractive place for Dawsons chill
dren and older people during the
long summer afternoons.
1t will do much more, however,
than refresh and amuse for the time
being. 1t will educate the children
who attend school there to a love
for and an appreciation of the beau
tlful-a most important but too
often neglected part of any true sys-
tenn Of education.
The school expects in the near
future to celebrate flag day, and on
that occasion the tenth grade will
present to the school a large flag,
which will float from the flag pole
on top of the building.
The board of school commission
ers and city council are to be COM
mended for what they are doing, and
every citizen should assist in the
movement toward identifying this
property.

BODY FOUND BY ROADSIDE
Corpse of Ross Manor, Who Was
Believed to Have Been With
White Caps, Is Identified
By His Father.
BY His Father.

SHELLMAN, April 13.-(SpeciaI
to The Dawson News. THE body
of Ross Manor, who is believed to
have been the white man killed by
Alfred Iverson, the negro who was
visited by white caps and murdered
Friday night, was found lying by the
roadside one mile from Shellman
last night about 10 o'clock, and iden-
titled by his father, James Manor,
of Eufaula, who had been here since
Sunday searching for his son, who
was reported to be missing.
Mainor's clothing were muddy and
dirty, showing that he had been
buried somewhere.
There was a coffin and box, said
to have been sent out from Cuth-
bert Monday, by the side of the dead
boy and it is supposed that his COM
panions in the affair of Friday night
had taken up the body from it's tenn
porary hiding place for the purpose
of burying it somewhere else, and
were frightened while en- route to the
place they expected to make the last
burial, and left the body where it
was found. Half of his head was
missing.
Young Manor will be buried at
Rehoboth church Tuesday morning
There is no clue as to who his
companions were.
The dead boy was a son of James
Manor, who was at one time fore
man of the Central railroads section
gang.
Young Manor was living this year
at Pachitla, where Iverson lived last
year, and from where he moved to
the Glaze place.

TWO DEAD FROM WHITE CAPPERS' VISIT
Negro Shot One of Mlgnlght Wis
itOrS Before He Was Killed.
BLOOD AND BRAINS ON WALL

And Pieces of Skull Were Scattered
About the Floor. An Ugly Trage-
dy ON the Line of Terrell and Ran
dOlph Counties Around Which
There Is Considerable Mystery
Coroner's Inquest Did Not De-
yelOp Anything.
Early Saturday morning Sheriff
Hill received a telephone message
from Mr. G. NJ. Cheney of Shellman
stating that negro had been lynched
on the Glaze place, owned by Mr.
Cheney, the tragedy occurring in
Terrell county about fifty yards from
the line.
Deputy Sheriff Slade and Coroner
c. 7. Buchanan at once left for the
scene, which was on the public road
about eleven miles from Dawson and
four from Shellman. Upon arrival
there the officers found that an old
negro, Alfred Iverson, had been shot
to death by unknown parties, and
there were evidences that he had
killed one of the crowd.
There were blood and brains on
the floor and wall, and pieces of skull
with the hair of a white man were
lying around on the floor of the hall
way. The dead negro with his body
literally riddled with pistol balls and
buCkshOt and his head beat into a
jelly was found just inside the door.
1t is believed that the negro killed
one of the men before he succumbed
to his numerous injuries. There
was trail of blood leading through
the front yard to the place where the
teams had been hitched.
VERSIONS son, a young boy, was
the main witness, and he did not see
all of the affair. He says the men
drove up to the house and demanded
entrance. IversOn refused to admit
them, but sent the boy out to see
what they wanted. They made the
boy help hold the horses while some
Of the crowd forced an entrance,
breaking open the door. At this
juncture VERSIONS wife fed.

Haddock, G. R. Bynum and A. T.
Eeasy, who, after hearing the testi
mony of VERSIONS wife and child and
one or two others, which threw very
little light on the occurrence, re-
turned the following verdict:
I'VE the jury find that Alfred Iver-
son came TO his death by gunshot
