IMPERIAL RUSSIAN BALLET.

IMPERIAL RUSSIAN BALLET.
 With the coming of the All-Star Im- perial Russian Ballet to the Park Theatre on Saturday evening next, To- cal art enthusiasts and music lovers will have the fullest opportunity to satisfy a desire fostered by the reso- lution of the National Federation of Musical Clubs-that is, the study of Russian music. The united musical organizations have decided on a year of Russian musical exploration.
 Russian music and Russian danc- ing have much in common, and it isn't a platitude to say so, although every body knows that dancing without mu- sic is about as interesting as straw berry short cake without any straw berries. It is in the folk element that the Muscovite choreographic and musical arts are so closely akin. Both grew up spontaneously among the peo- pie.

RAPIDLY SINKING
 THE DALLAS SHAFT
1t Is Going Down at the Rate of 140 Feet a
 Month,

The new Dallas shaft of the Cop per Queen Mining company will have been completed by Christmas, accord ing to Mine Superintendent Parker WoodmaR. The present depth of the shaft is about $50 feet. The shaft is being sunk at the rate of about 140 feet per month, and raising is being done on the HOO level of the Lowell shaft. When it is completed the depth of the Dallas will be about l. 200 feet.
 The tunnel running from the rail road track to the shaft has been run a distance of 120 feet and will have been completed by October 1, it is believed Some crosscutting is be- ing done at the other new shaft, the White Tail Deer, and conditions there are favorable. While the Dallas is being sunk primarily for the purpose of bettering the ventilation Of the Lowell shaft, some ore is being en- countered and indications of further finds lower down are good
 The big hoisting engine for the Dallas has arrived and will be in stalled at the shaft this week, the foundations having already been sci up.

JURORS WEAKENED
 IN BRADLEY CASE
Three Swear They Believe De- fendant Was not
 Guilty
NEW TRIAL IS ALLOWED

In afidayits filed in Judge T. D. Burdlck's court yesterday. three of the jurymen who tried and convicted William Bradley on the charge of dis turbing the peace yesterday asserted that they did not believe Bradley to be guilty: that the verdict of guilty rendered and signed by them, was not their opinion. The jurymen are:
 Rue Prick.
 Louis Johnson.
 William Trezise.
 The affidavits were filed by Attor- ney $ K Williams in petition for new trial. and at the same time a change of venue to Judge Highs court was asked fof. The motion for new trial was allowed by Judge Burdick and the second hearing of the case will be set by Judge High.
 The petition for new trial recites the following in part:
 That the verdict rendered in the trial of the said cause by said jury was not an expression of the opinion Of the entire jury as to the guilt of the defendant; that Juryman Rue Prick stated immediately after the trial of the case that he did not be- lieve the defendant was guilty or should have been convicted, and that he should not have signed or con sented to any such verdict but that the only reason he did so was because he had important business to attend to and wanted to get out of the jury room as soon as possible in order to attend to such business, and that if 1t was to be done over again that he would stay there a week before he would have consented to the rendition of verdict of guilty herein"
 Louis Johnson's statement was that he did not believe Bradley to be gull ty, and William TreZise's statement was that he believed that certain of the jurors were influenced by preju- dice in finding against the defendant and did not believe him guilty of the charge.
 The affidavits were not necessarily legal grounds for the granting of a new trial, it is said. When the verdict of the jury was read in Judge Bur- dicks court on the first trial of the case, the jury was asked if the verdict expressed their opinion. and they an swered in the affirmative.
 The conviction of Bradley was the third conviction by jury on a charge of disturbing the peace that has oc' cured in Judge Burdicks court in the last five years.

NEW YORK STATE GETS

From the New York World.
 From Friday, September l, op, in this state, 1t will be felony to carry a concealed weapon and misdemeanor to own a firearm. A license costing $1O will enable you to be armed. But that may De more than the old re- volver in your trunk is worth. To be safe, you might throw it away, al- though it is reasonably safe to let it stay in the trunk, since the police cannot search your house without a warrant and the offense of possession is a misdemeanor only. But it will go hard with the thug or brawler caught with a gun" in his pocket,
 From Friday on prize-fghting will be resumed after eleven years Of pa per outlawry. The bouts can not last more than ten rounds and must be fought with eight-ounce gloves in buildings safeguarded against fire and under the direction of licensed clubs, which will forfeit $1O,OOJ if these con ditions are violated or if there is a sham fight.
 From Friday on it will be illegal to paint or paste an advertisement on the property of another without his consent or to post advertising on the highways It will be legal for any one to remove highway advertising. and the good roads committee of the automobile club has appointed Friday as clean up day"
 From Friday on the slaughter of wild game in America will be mater tally checked by the virtual closing of it's greatest market. It will be against the law in this state to sell all game save deer, black ducks, mal- lards and pheasants bred in eaDtiv- ity, and certain stock imported from Europe.
 These four laws just about offset each other. IL will be profitless to kill game for the market, and with ones pistol taken away 1t will be hard to kill anything else. But one can legally satisfy his destructive pro pensities for smashing highway ad | yertisements or by watching duly li censed pugilists smash each other.

OFFICIAL INSPECTION
 OF DAMAGED HIGHWAY
Citizen Member Craig Went Over the Torrent Torn
 Road Yesterday

Citizen Member R. s. Craig of the territorial board of control arrived in the city yesterday 10 inspect the dam age to the territorial highway by a mountain torrent near Forest Station on Saturday night.
 After looking over the rayages of the flood Mir Craig said that James Parker, engineer in charge, would prepare the necessary data regarding the repairs, for submission to Terri torial Engineer Girand. Mir Girand was called to Los Angeles on Satur- day evening before word was received at the capital of the damage to the road. He and Mir. Craig will come 10 Bisbee next week. when the work of making repairs is under way.
 MT. Craig said that a section of the read about a mile and a half In length Is affected, many gullies of various length and width having been cut across. The repairs he said will not be very expensive and altogether he thinks it is not a bad thing that the flood came. It proved that such things are possible at that particular spot, though from the topography it would not have been expected that such volume of water could have been brought together
 The road had not yet been crowned; l; that is. the surface had not been oiled yet. otherwise the damage would more nearly have approached a disaster.
 The grade will be raised somewhat and provision will be made by more frequent and larger culverts for the passage of water.

edge and who seem to think that
they may prove exceptions to the
rule and be content to simply drift
with the tide.
"A persons individuality, of course,
naturally enters largely into his con-
eeption of duty. and many of the
nonsuccesses of life, which the
world calls failures, are caused by
the inability to grasp the more vital
issues as they are presented. Much
depends upon the way in which we
begin the work that lies before US.
Just as in every other condition Of
life, the best results are obtained
from thorough knowledge Of the
task we essay, and the person who
sets out with a decided purpose in
view and the determination to at
tain that purpose at whatever cost
generally succeeds in the end.
The pity Of it all is that even in
this day of specializing, where mas.
terry of the trades and professions
is undertaken in a systematic man
ner, there are 80 many young men
and young women set free upon
the great wilderness of life to blaze
their paths unaided by any special
preparation and often retarded by
false ideas. with nothing to depend
upon except vague conceptions and
impossible theories, they are left to
pass their lives as best they can.
