Julia Arthur'S fHAmIet

Distinguished Actress Brings
Shakespeare to Keith Vaude-
vile and CompeIs Admira-
ton for a SkilIful Achieve
ment.
E. F. Albee presented at
B. F. Keith's Theater Julia
Arthur in the queens closet
scene from Hamlet"
THE CAST.
Hamlet. the Prince of Denmark
Miss Arthur
The Queen. his mother: Mona Morgan
The Kings Ghost George stiilwell
Shakespeare was introduced to
vaudeville in Washington yester-
day in a manner unprecedented,
yet highly befitting the new Sc
rious standard of this type of en-
tertainment; a welcome contribu-
ton to the condensed type OF
American drama that deserves
whole hearted commentator.
To e. F. Albee, who succeeded
to the mantle of the late B. F.
Keith, goes large part Of the
credit for his astuteness in bring
ing Shakespeare to vaudeville,
while to Mss Arthur is due indls-
putable praise for her distinct
triumph in a fiftsen-minute scene
OF the role OF the melancholy
Dane, the part having been en-
acted by but few trRgediennes in
the annals OF the Engllsh-speaking
stage, among whom was Bern
hardt.
Miss Arthur speaks the sonorous
phrases of the Bard OF Avon with
deiiberateness, yet with a calm
ness devoid Or either derisive ex-
pEesslon or derisive mood. Her
earnestness, her diction and her
merging OF her own personality
with the mood OF character far out
stripped expectations even of the
skeptics.
In the part OF the Queen, Miss
Morgan portrays Hamlet's un-
happy mother with a sympathetic
understanding that is remarkably
sincere. Mr.. Traders Polonius is
highly satisfactory, and is adapted
somewhat to the vaudeville stand
ard; while George SillweIl's Ghost
Is capably done, leaving nothing to
be desired.
Miss Arthur, in curtain speech
last night, explained Mr.. Albee's
desire to offer Shakespeare to
vaudeville and her happiness in
the opportunity to play Hamlet,
even in a concentrated edition of
the role. Miss Arthur was ex-
tended an ovation that was deafen-
Ing in its volume and unmistak

Walter Hampden, at the Gar
rick last night in "Othello," was
enthusiastically received by an
audience quick to recognize the
remarkable talent of the Shakes
pearean interpreter who has few
equals. The performance was a
very creditable one and Hampden
well deserves our congratulations.
"Othello" was a thorough en-
joyment. Hampden seemed at
his best. New York's verdict Of
"OtheIlo" was not overdrawn, for
seldom does a Washington audi
ence receive Shakespearean plays
with the reception accorded this
presentation of last night.
"Othello" may be old as the
hills, but the story and the inter-
woven plots differ little from
modern plot style. The thrills
are there just the same as in
every play of today. And the
acting, of course, is high above
the acting in the average play.
Hampden lends the character a
dignity, a suggestion of mental
SOhAAAII DIS Always TIC superb
passion to which he arises giving
but further proof that as an inter-
prefer Of Shakespeare he is ON
his native heath.
Hampden really acts Shakes
peare. He makes Shakespeare
live as dramatist. He makes
the play not an. exercise in elocu-
ton but worthy example of a
great art. His representation of

Mabel Moore as Desdemona

innuendo while preserving the

His work was most deserving of
praise. s
Ernest Rowan as Cassie and
Mary Hall as Emilia made much
of their parts.

PINE CREEK OUTLOOK
FOR MINING BRIGHTER
THAN IN MANY YEARS

The strong price of lead and the
assured market for zinc provided
by the Anaconda company have
combined to infuse new life into
the mining situation on Pine creek.
with the result that there is more
activity in that section at this
time than there has been in many
years and there is a feeling of
confidence that the long delayed
prosperity has. arrived Two COM
panies. the Constitution and Ma
bob, are making changes i'm their
mills for the recovery of zinc and
both expect to be in operation
within the next few weeks The
new mill at the Amy Matchless is
nearing completion, for which
carload of machinery arrived at
Kellogg Tuesday and is now being
transported by trucks to the mine
Leasers are shipping from the
Highland Surprise and it is prob
able that the output will soon he
increased by disposal of the zinc
product to the Anaconda. These
conditions have naturally given
substantial encouragement to de-
velopment. with the result that

INDEPENDENT DRIFTING
STRONG ORE STRINGER
CONDITIONS FAVORABLE TO I'M
PoRTANT DISCLOSURES AT
EARLY DATE.

Interesting development operations
are being carried on by the indie
pendent Copper Mining & Milling com
pany which promises to result in find
ing a body of silver ore. This
work is being done through a cross
cut extending from the main tunnel
of the National and will explore the
ground at a depth Of 1000 feet below
the original Independent workings
Soon after starting the crosscut a
stringer of ore, about inches thick
on the west side and about inches
on the east was cut Although it
was a very attractive showing, car
rying good values in lead and silver,
the crosscut was continued on the
theory that this stringer was an Off
shoot from the main vein. However,
this theory has not been confirmed
by extension of the crosscut and now
it is regarded possible and even prob
able that this stringer is the vein
sought Work has therefore been dis
continued in the crosscut and drifting
east on the sringer of ore has been
started. the showing suggesting that it
may be the west end of an ore shoot
Good Showing Above.
While former development of the
Independent did not result in finding
ore, it did show up con-
siderable ore in a vein of great prom
ises. The vein was explored by drift
ing from a crosscut tunnel which ex-
tends into Missoua Copper ground.
This drift discloses considerable ore,
both copper and lead silver, and at the
most favorable place a Wine was sunk
from the drift following the vein to
depth of 200 feet The ore continued
in varying quantities. lead-silver pre-
and a drift east from the
bottom of the Wine showed more and
better ore, though still not in paying
quantities The work that is now
being done is about 500 feet west OF
the winze, and if this stringer of ore
should prove to be the main vein, it is
to expect, in view of the
greatly increased depth below the
promising showing on the winze level,
that it will be the west end of an i'm
portant ore shoot.

FIRE PROOF ROOFS
FAVORED BY BOARD
FOR FIRE PREVENTION
Merits Zinc as Roofing Mat
erial--Annual Banquet to be
Held October Is

:" IRE PROOF roofs was given as
- the most essential step toward
effective fire prevention by
Herman }. Rossi at the board of
trade luncheon yesterday in a brief
address in connection with the observ-
ance of hre prevention week. He
referred to the ordinance pending be-
fore the council which would require
all new roofs within the city to be of
fire proof material, and was unable to
understand how any thoughtful citizen
could oppose its passage. He cited
the recent Burke fire as an impressive
example of the danger in single
roofs. 1t was generally accepted that
the fire originated on a single roof
OF house at the lower end OF Burke,
probably from a spark falling upon
it. Buildings were blown up to check
the fire and this accomplished its pur-
pose but the wind carried brands to
another single roof 2OOO feet away
and il was soon in flames which rap
idly extended to other buildings and
to the Hecla mine. and the great min
ing plant and business section of
Burke were soon in ruins. Fire proof
roofs would have prevented this great
loss. Even if the property was well
covered with insurance, as was the
case with the Hecla, Mr.. Rossi pointed
out that there is a tremendous loss to
the community that cannot be reached
by insurance. He referred to the com
mon acts of carelessness, such as
dropping matches, cigar and cigarette
stubs where they may be the means of
starting fires, and to the danger that
turks in gasolene which is now SO
widely used. But the most fruitful
source of fires he said was the single
roof

crOsseut from 700 Level.

Discussing these plans Otto A.
OLSON. manager of the Hypotheek
company said the first step in carry
ing them out would be to make a sur
vey to determine the position Of the
face of the drift with reference to the
shaft and that arrangements had been
made with +. G. Gnaedinger, mining
engineer of this city, to make the sur
vey. With this accomplished cross
cut will be run to the shaft. Upon
completing this connection the shaft
will be unwatered down to probably
the 700 level, 300 feet below the cross
cut connection. and at that level a
crosscut will be run to the vein. The
vein has quite a strong dip to the
south, or toward the shaft, which will
result in materially shortening the
distance TO be run as compared to that
above Much confidence is felt that
the development of the vein on this
new level, 300 feet below the drift on
the tunnel level will find the long
sought ore body.
