B Denvcu, Juno 10. Three favorable points
B in the mining situation In tho Wrst cannot bo
B f overlooked. Tlio first Is tlio steady and con-
B , stnnt arrival In the West of promlnontcnpl-
BB ,. tallsts of tho East who In provlous years, havo
Ka i Invested heavily In mines which wero permitted
HB r to Ho Idle durlnit tho years of depression, nnd
Kb A who are now coming to view tho now oondl-
Sgfj is. tlons with tho expectation of reopening their
h " mines. Tho second Is the marked success of
Ssk H new concentration works, ami the modern ri
8L M dbctlon plants at various points In tills Rtnte
BBtV which makoi many mines profitable where
BBT u on co they operated at a loss. Tlio third fnvor
Ba ' able Indication Is the Increasing number of dtvl-
BB dend paj Ing properties. The rite In Blhcr, also,
Bf might bo given as a fourth faiornblo sign, for
BB ' tho best rren of the State now believe that sll-
BBj ' er will advance steadily regardless of national
BBJ legislation or the platforms of political parties.
BB Mixer Is lscromlng scarce, and Is not moetlns
BBJ the demand. It w 111 rlso to DO cents before tho
BBj i summer ends, they assert confidently.
BBJ Tlio First National Hank this week exhlb-
BBJ ' Ited two gold bricks from the Florencocjanlde
BB works, wlilch woro alucd at $4fi,000. That
BBJ treat reduction plant will soon bo completed to
BBJ n rapacity of 400 tons of oro per day. The low-
BBJ prude ores of Cripple Creek aro profitably
BBJ treated at that place.
BBJ I 'I ho opening of tho new reck mill nt Inde-
BBJ pondenco with a capacity of 200 tons Is awaited
BBj with exeat tntorest. Millionaire Stratton bc-
BB lloios ho has a process that will mako tho low
BBj prides highly profitable, and hols now dovcloD-
BB , lng his mines sn as to furnish big tnnnngo
BBj when tho Peek works are piepnrcd to handle
BB (jS tho ore. It $10 and SIS ore can be profitably
BB 3 handled there will be several hundred mines
BB i'I n Crlpplo Creek ready to sell ore, and the num.
BB rl 1 or of minors In the district will be quadrupled.
BB S '1 he new concentrating plant at Ward In ISould-
BB V er county has shown such remarkablo results
BB that that old camp has been hating i boom
BB ; ' unknown to Its sleepy part. Idaho Springs
BB I hus half a doicn new mills which nro profitably
BB ' treating tho ores of the district, and tho result
BB ) Is tht that c.vnp Is doing a fine business this
BB icn-Min. Central City hu a new 100-ton mill
BB I now In operation, but with what success is not
BB ct fully know n. Last week a now process
BB was started in Oolden, which promises to treat
BB , S10 ore from Gilpin county it a far profit.
BB J Throughout the State other mills are In opcra-
Bj tion. and many of them ar making a good rec-
BB i. crd.
BB Some items In the progress of Cripple Creek
BB mines are worthy of note. Tho first shlppor
BB for Carbonate Hill, northeast of town. Is the
BB Klttlo Wells, which aftor four ) ears of eiplor-
BB ' atlon work has shown a 14-lnch streak of pay
BB ore at a depth of fourteen feet In a new shaft,
BB and several tons havo been taken out. In
BB 1803, a rich pocket of ore was found In this
BB property which realized $1 a pound, but
BB nothing mora of valuo was discovered until
BB this now vein was found. Within the corpnr-
BB ate limits of town, lessees on the Hnytlen
BB place this week discovered In a cross-cut thirty
BB feet from tho 100-foot level an 8-luch vein of
BB syiranlte running better than twenty ounces
BB by assay and averaging twelvo ounces. A
BB shipment can be made from this during the
BV month.
B f The Union dividend of 511,000 will be paid
B on the 25th from the returns of a $20,000
BW shipment of ore and another 100-ton shipment
BM '' bos been mode. Tho directors of the Union
BV I Company are quarrelling over tho management
of the property, fomo opposing the Issuing of
BB !.' dividends. Tho Elkton will pay a dividend
BW I of 310,000 on the 20th. The gross valuo of the
B i- May output of the Elkton was $3o,000, and
BjF f the net profit was 323,000. During the first
Br v week of Jane the company shipped eight cars
rot ore.
Stratton has resumed work on the John A.
am t Logan to develop tho extent of the ore bodies
Be T awaiting the completion of the Peck works
BB before making any shipments. The Pharmacist
BW k Company has decided to buy a 82.500 steam
B hoisting plant for Its new shaft. FIf iecn cars
Bt t tif ore were shipped from Raven Hill In one day
Bk I last week, five mines contributing to the total.
Bj r The Moose has begun work upon a tunnel 1,225
H r feet long to drain the property ot a depth of
Bj j 000 feet. Last month the Raven shipped 400
BT i tons averaging 330. Twenty-five sacks of ore
Be l from the Lottij returned $20,020. The ton-
Bj. nage and value of ore shipped from the Victor
BJ i last month was the best In the history of the
Bj r property, tre net value being 340,000 on a grost
Bj value of 300,000. Trial shipments from a
Bj half dozen new properties were made this
Bt week.
B Mining operations about Alma are unusually
Bj V o;tlve. Alvln Boody of New York has opened
Bb I tip three old properties and has made a trial
Bj f shipment to tst the values under new condl-
BjF l tlons of reduced cott of smelting ores nnd
Bj , working mines. The Phillips mine Is shipping
BJ steadily and the placers have been started.
Bj The m-eat activity In the old camp of Alma, as
Bj hero outlined, has resulted In the employment
BJ . , of many men, but tho local supply of labo r is
H adequate to all demandr.

Tho Pain nmphtthoatro at Manhattan Bench
this summer Is devoted to A spoctaclo called
"Cuba," which may bo moro Imaginative than
accurate, but I Is In any oaso highly diverting
and fills a stirring half hour with moro sensa
tions than the most concentrated melodrama
over contained. Tho scenery, which Is par
ticularly Imrresslvo irom tho aonso of apace
and eUs'aiico, represents a pnbllo squaro In
Havana, beforo a building that may bo Casflo
Slorro. On tho loft nro thostrootB of tho
town, nnd on tho right a itrotch of country.
When Iho notion commencos tho population
Is gathered In tho squaro. A troop of acrobatB
perform, and after them neompnny of dnnclng
girls In Spanish costumo bang tholr tambour
Inej, nnd much to tho delight of tho nu'lvos,
v ho iipplnuil them with no apparent thought
of tho rebellion or Its troubles. When thoon
tortalnmcnt hns concluded, tho Inhabitants

loft. Thoy nro numorous onougli lo kcop tho
stago crowded, and In nil tho eubsoquont ina
ncDUvrcs that follow thoro Is no dairago to tho
Illusion from any lack of moving llguros.
Aftor tho githcring In tho squaro has dis
solved, tho Spanish soldiers aro seen march
ing out of tho fortress, and vv'jllo thoy occupy
tho centre of thogrcntsticc, tho life of tho city
Is exhibited nt Iho left, wheto people are. seen
moving tu nnd fro, nnd other soldiers, from
tlmo tr time, nppoir. While the Spiulsh troops
nro drilling, n man, npparontly 1 reprosonto
tlvoof tho new Journalism, Is discovered prowl
ing nbout tho outworks of tho fortress. He Is
seized nnd dragged Into tho square, while n
ttoop of Cuban Insurgents steal up to tho tort
on the right and take their places In tho under

tho spy, vv hen somebody appears vv Ith an Amer
ican flag, which tho man wraps about him.
Then to tho tuno of "Tho Stnr-spnngleel Ban

It Is aflor this Incident that tho real crisis of
tho spectacle commences. Tho Insurgents be
gin to llro on tho fortrcrs, and tho Spanish
troots answer them with a volley. Ihu firing
'ontlnues, and tw o boats, manned by tho Cubans,
appear In front of the squaro nnd throw u search

modest demeanor and average comellnest ap

rode quietly around tho track Just at hundreds
of women do on the lioulcvnrds every day.
After sho had mado several Journeys around
the ring she alighted, leaned her w hi el against
npost. und stepped into tho ring. She se emeil to
be looking for somebody among the spectators,
nnd as thero wero not moro than twent)-fivo
present she ought tn have lieen able to find him.
But she did not. nnd after reading a note w hlch
she took from her gown, the tonng woman re
muuntod her wheel und stalled around tho
track Then a )oung fellow In ,1 derby hit
npprared riding a blcjcle. He followetl tho
girl. Thoy smiled, bowed, and gave an exhi
bition of a familiar wene that occurs daily pos
sibly where the riders are most nunii rnus.
After the had ridden around together the two
dismounted ngalt., stepped Into the ring, in
dulged in more pantomime, nnd then resumed
their riding. In the s-one that passed between
