FIRST SHIPMENT OF
 ANTBFONY RECORDED

The first big shipment of anti mony was recorded in the transDor- tatiou officers of the White Pass Route when the train pulled in with car load from the Wheaton dis trict. The mineral was shipped from Robinson and mining men are watching the developments of this line of mining with a watchful eye. The car load consisted of ten tons of the mineral which will probably run fifty per cent and market from $30Q to $4OO per ton. The demand for aut.mony at the DreEent time is brisk, the market is holding it's ownc aud people in this vicitny look for rapid developments with the shipping mine.

The sanitary condi- ton of this institution is some thing awful, it IS just reeking in filth; It cannot be otherwise for the patients are crowded in a very small space, and the attend ants do not try to keep it clean.

Safety

During my stay in that: institute have never seen a pa tient given an examination, or receive any kind of medical treat meut from the doctor or attend ants unless they call it a tract ment to kick the patients down kick aad beat them and drag them to a cell in an unconscious state and lock them up without food for several days.
 1T nature comes to the rescue of a patient and he recoyels and IS sound in both mind and body, and he proves 60 be a good work CT, they will find plenty of work for him to do, but in no case will they ever turn him loose, unless he has good friel.ds OH the outside to intercede for him and pay some money for expenses.
 I believe the management ot that institute likes the monthly income of s27.5O a head per, that our government kindly donates them for the abuse given to our poor unfortunate citizens of Al 'aska.

Sudden Weather Changes

Mr.. Tcatsorth concerning the beauti-

very pretty and is appreciated but he
has one on the weather here that beats
il all to pieces. In speaking of the
sudden changes, Mr.. Lacy says he was

girls were out in their summer frocks
and the frogs in the lake had become
excited at the merriment and their
heads were sticking out of the lake
all over the surface of the water. \

could dive back into the water, each
one had his head frozen in the sheet of
ice that covered the lake.

Robson Opera House.

Richard & Pringles Famous Geor-
gia Minstrels have probably made
more people laugh than all the other
minstrels combined. All those com
panies that sprang into existence
soon after the birth of the Georgias
have long since been forgotten.
The public were quick to distin-
guish between the real and the imi-
tation, and the management of this
company in turn appreciated this con-
fidence, and have ever striven to
give what was best, high-class and
most desired.
That the policy of giving the pub
lie its moneys worth and more, is
the best policy, thirty years of pros
perity amply proves.
The date of this company's appear
ance at Robson Opera house is Fri

cast in this production, including Paul
Gilmore, the popular romantic stage

acter actor; and a dozen others of like
importance. Rosemary" is the adapta-
tion of the famous English drama in
which John Drew was starred at the
Empire Theatre, the home theatre OF
the late Charles Frohman, on Broad

country life and affords Miss Snow an
excellent opportunity to display her
unusual charm and distinctive dramat-
ic gifts.
Dan and Edith Collins opened a
three days engagement yesterday
and it is one of the best vaudeville acts
shown at the Palace this season. The
"Rube" sketch is particularly clever,
and the songs and jokes are new and
catchy. They will be here today and
tomorrow. You will regret it if you
do not see them.
