A well pleased audience saw Eflie Ellsler last night at the theater in "Tbe Governess." Few plays have been pre-sented on the Salt Lake stage to full of interest as "Tha Governess." There is just enough humor pervading the plot to season it well. The story of the gov-erness, Zorah Warden, appeals to the better sido of human nature her noble self sacrifices, her silence under tbe shadow of doubt ani the ultimate roll-ing of the clouds away to give the sun- - shine of joy a chance, all tend to make "Tbe Governess" a pretty and elevating play. Of Miss Ellsler nothing can be said to ber praise which has not al-ready been said. Her laurels have been garnered long from the stubborn held of fame and are becomingly and lightly worn by the charming little woman. The personnel of the com-pany is excellent. Every character is so well cast that improvement seems out of the question. Little 'Hone, the daughter of the governess, is a marvei a dainty little fairy marvel, as it were. Mr. Frank Weston, as Jarvis Coulter, gives to Mrs. KllsU-- a support that is practically perlection.

Mr. Nugent Kobinsnn, the accom-plished editor of Once a Week, ami John F.arnest McCanu sold two little comedies last Saturday. One, called Ada Kehan, Mr. Daly bought, and Mr. Robert U. Mantell bought the other, paying $450 down for it. It is called A Lesson in acting, and was the last play the late Mr. Lawrence Harratt ever read. Mr. liarratt spoke very highly of it, in a letter to Mr. McCann, anil that letter is now in the possession of Mr. Mantell. Mr. Kobinsnn has w ritten sixteen plays, and twelve novels, and is a member of the Dramatic Author's Society, of London. He is as well known in London and Paris as he is in New York. The stars of American dramatic writers seem to be in the ascendant. Managers seem to realize, at last, that somebody can write quite as well as writers born within I he sound of the bloomin' How Bells. Mr. Robin-son and Mr. McCann are to write a three. act comedy for Mr. Daly this summer. Friday Night "The I.tttla Tycoon." Friday night will be given "The Little Tycoon." It is a bright, lively, kaleidoscopic entertainment, in which there has apparently been neither hesi-tation nor dilliculty in bringing about any situation or scene the composer's fancy has called for. It ia called "The Little Tycoon," but one has to wait till the last fifteen minutes to find out what he has to do with it. Tbe prettiest and in some particulars the best portion of the opera, however, comes then, and dresses and scene and music are all very effective and picturesque there. There is an abundance of music in "The Little Tycoon" too much, if anything. It is an exhibition of versatility and of considerable ability on the part of Mr. Spenser, who gives us a little bit of everything from topical song to grand opera. Katta Emuiett C'omius;. The well known little soubretje "Katie Fjnmett," in her successful play "Tee Waifs of New York," is one of the early bookings at the Opera House. Miss Kmmett has made a wonderful reputation for herself as a star, the past two years iu her play, and she has the support of such high salaried and clever artists as Amy Ames, who was the original violot iu Hoyt's Tin Soldier; Geo. W. Thompson. F'rnnk Roberts, (ieo. W. Mitchell, W. II. Murdoch, Elizabeth Garth, Emma Rice, and others. Wonderland, Wonderland announces a novel ad-vertising scheme today.

HUlpniMiU from Centennial Knraka. Tbe daily records of shipments of ore from the Centennial Kureka, shows that the property is capable of making the highest grade production of almost any mine in Utah. A sale was made yester-day of twenty-fou- r tons which re-turned Mil ounces iu silver 11. 5, lead and 1 ounces aold to the ton netting the owners 7i00. Miuaa l Miliars. Harry Donovan will leave in a few days for Minneapolis on business con-nected with Tintic mining property. It, will be two or three weeks yet be-fore the tramway to tbe Crescent will be cleaned out to permit the transpor-tation of ore by that method. Six thousand and five tons of Horn Silver ore was purchased by local buy-ers yesterday for the Globe and I'hila-delphi- a companies of J'uebio, aud the works at Aurora, Illinois. l'ark City will soon have another big propertv working in the ..Massachu-setts, which will make some expensive improvement in its machinery and will employ a largo number of men, and will doubtless soou become a large producer. A M1NINGMKENKG. A Veritable Epidemic has Set in Caused by the Splendid EoporU Which are Coming. PROM ALL THE MINING CAMPS, Utah on the Threshold of a Wonderful Season of Excitement Backed by Subetaittial Discoveries. Kven the pouring rain and lowering clouds yesterday seemed to be power-less to cool the heat of the mining ex-citement or dampen the ardor of the enthusiasts. Jt will only need one more shipment of rich ore from Fish Springs or Dugway to lill every manly heart iu the western states with a con-suming desire to test his fortune iu a battlo with the gold-ribbe- "d silver-line- d mountains of the Deep Creek country. t THOSE Ml I I'M EXT COM I.Nrt. It is believed that tbe consignments of ore which will lie necessary to clinch the facts already published of the riches of llugwav, Fish Springs and Kagle.are now 011 ttiu way; and that when the test hare been made they will show a greater value thin any pre viously received. This seems reasona-ble from statements which have been made by several entirely disinterested parties who have arrived here within the past few davs and who have visited and examined the bonanzas belonging to Sam (iilson. Chipuian and (irantas well as the property of a dozen cither miuers who are opening up claims of nntut i.TMinim. and have been piling ore on the dumps from tho first tucmeut a blow was struck with a pick. IT IS COMING. It is certain now that nothing can prevent the boom, and it also seems positively assured that Salt Lake will receive such an awakening from its drowsy slumbers as to thrill all the old mossbacks from cuticle to marrow. i'hcisi'kciuks auk oi'tkittin. Scores of blue-hhirtc- and canvas and corduroy coated prospectors were seen yesterday buying grub, supplies and tools preparatory to making a cam-paign iu the mines. These are only waiting now for the sun to pierce through the man-tle of overhanging clouds to turn their faces and set their footsteps towards thestar which is leading them to the mineral meccas of the western empire. MORE (IILSON OKI! COMISU. A son of Sam Gilson, w ho has been so indisposed for sometime as to o him for a journey to Dugwav, received a letter from his father yester-day, stating that ho had mined four cars of ore from the liuckhorn since he went out tho last time, and that a shipment of one car was now on the road to this city which was better shan any which he had previously sent in. MINE lll(iiKll THAN F.VKK. The mine is not only opening up bet-ter and showing larger bodies of ore with every explosion of a blast, but it is becoming better defined and gives add-ed confidence that it is the making of a great property and possiby a grand bo-nanza. FAHl l.oi'S ASSAYS. In the same letter from Gilson to bis son. he says that he has made some as-says within the past week from ore taken from the deepest workings of the mine, which returned all the way from .')(I00 to i:(0OU ounces in silver, with the usual amounts of gold, in some in-stances running as high as $000 to the ton. IT W II.I. SI'KKAliTO EVKItVCAMI'IN t'TAII. None of the old camps of tbe territory need feel jealous of the wonderful in-terest and great excitement w hich is being generated by the glowing reports of the rich strikes which are being made in the Deep Creek mountains. The honors of the old districts like Bing-ham, Tintic and l'ark are assured, and the grand records they have made in the past and the brilliant showings they are making today, will always give them a great prestige. CAI'ITAI. WILL FI.cn V IN. Money w ill How into this city from the financial coders of the east, all of it seeking to get a slice of Cue gold ami silver riches.

No one local-ity or one camp can monopolize all the a'.teutiou or absorb all tho interest. (lltKAT STUIKKS have become so frequent within the past few weeks, scattered ail over the territory, that it is even now difficult for a man to decide which district oilers the most allurements to him to come to them and make a fortune.

T1H Onnt No Mora Quail In Florida, Three Nimrods who have been hunting 5nfc.il near here for Boine weeks past were on Thursday last treated to an experience that they will never forget. They were hunting that morning In the Hal woods near Ben ford, and, while trying to locate a covey of quail that their dugs had flushed close to a growth of high palmettoes, one of the party who was some distance from the others sud-denly called out, "A rattler!" His dog was only a few feet in front of him, when all at once ho sprang to one side quicker than a flash and came "to heel." On the instant there came from under the palmetto that well known but dread-ed sound to the hunter the rattle. To locate the snake was mi impossi-bility, for the peculiar noise that ema-nates from that vibraing tail so affects the drum of the ear that, unless tho snake ,is seen, it would seem to bo within a radius of but a few feet, but where yon cannot toll. Finally, alter much caution by the hunters, with the aid of u stick at least ten feet long, the palmettoes were down enough to see his bead raiiM-- out of a "gopher hole." Angry nnd fierce he looked; his eyes seemed fairly to emit sparks of fire. After gaz-ing at him for a short instant, one of the party fired, hitting him full on the bead, and the hideous warning ceased. Then, with a forked stick-an- tho united efTorU of two, he w.w pulled out of his retreat. His length was five feet and ten inches, and he girted at the center of tho body twelve inches and having twelve rattles. One of t ly party re-marked: "Gentlemen, I have seen my first rattle on its natural domain in Florida, and I'm ready to quit. If quail live in their Ideality, even if every bird had a new if 10 silver certificate tied to it, I say let it go." Do Laud Cor. Florida Times-Unio- BORNEO KNOCKED OUT A Sheep Herder on the Z. 0. Ranch Captures an Untamed Denizen of the Desert. BOXED UP AND FED ON BEEP. The Thrilling Experience in the Depth of Sight-N- ow on Their Way to Salt Lake. It was two weeks ago that Amos Cuinmings, a sheep herder employed on the Z. C. ranch, east of the Wasatch range, landed in the city and was view-ing Wonderland's collection of curios, when he began to unfold a story that caught tiie ear of McGill, the vigilant romancer of the museum. " Taint a marker to what we've got roainin' down on the range near us," piped the shepherd as lie pumped his bellows full of fresh air and ozone aud grasping the wary "Mack" began to unbosom himself. "Talk about your wild man of ltorneo, your Jo Jo, and and your gal from old Missouri," chimed the herder, "why, (bey ain't in it. This here thing is a cur'osity that'll knock 'em ail out o' sight, "its a genuine wild man with hair on him thick as a toon's wool and tusks like a wild boar." Continuing the herder stated that he was patrolling the plains one night and followed a Maine that flickered from the shadows of tho bluff that rose like a huge ami silent sphinx underthe beams of the moon. It was an uncommon spec-tacle and Cuinmings spurred his animal to his strongest pace, lie was in the arc of the la.v berg when to his horror the herder pulled up beforo an enigma that came bounding towards him and brandishing a formidable club, to the fierce evolutions of which he kept time with shrill cries and guiterai grunts. Tho cowboy was not in it, but gathering rein wheeled his animal and shot across the dry aud desolate desert. Accompanying this wild and weird creature that had come into the world in shape of a man, was a team of long-horne-goats and a minature cart. "I'll give you a reward." interjected the bewildered romancer, "if you'll produce him." The contract was sealed, and show-man and shepherd started for the haunts of tho wild man. The desert, with its white, glistening carpet of alkali was too much for Mack anil casting a sack ef coin at the herder he retraced his steps. Last evening while he was seated in the literary department at Wonderland a telegraph messenger handed him the following 'gram: Hsu Narrows. April 15. Out wild inan: cot him In a Ihu ; feeding htm raw beef aud era I-ters. Send nut car fare. Amos Ccmmisos. Arrangements were promptly made for tha "combination." Mack was ex-ultant and a cago in which to exhibit this untamed denizen of the desert was ordered to be made at once. "Aint you romancing just a little?" was asked this morning. "Not a bit of it, sir." replied the press agent as he lifted six inches of altitude out of his shoe tops, "not a bit of it. I tell you its a wild man for I saw it aud the goats with my own eyes. There's no money in deceiving the public and if it's not a go well give me six months before Judge Laney." dimming! is now at Red Narrows with the wagon and wild man, the goats having "flown the coop." a .

The two passengers were whiling away the time by a gamo of cards iu the Kmoking car. "Want to bet on your hand?" said the one with the diamond breastpin cas-ually.

"And I nm a retired paper hanger." There wasn't any betting done on that game. Chicago Tribune. Steam Cram Kxravntar. A steam crane has been constructed for employment on the Manche .ter ship canal which has done some remarkably good work, both in hard and in soft ma-terial. The machine is an ordinary ten ton locomotive crane, with an excavator attached to the jib, the whole being car-ried on a steel truck fitted with wheels. The principal feature of the excavator is the method by which the bucket is fed tip to its work. This is done by a spe-cial steam cylinder, which is bolted to the arms carrying the bucket, and by means of which the bucket can be moved in or out a distance of two foet as desired. In making a cut tho bucket is first lowered to the bottom of the cut-ting, and then fed up to its work by the 6team cylinder, the valves of which are controlled from the footplate of tho ma-chine. The lifting gear is then applied, and the bucket ia swept up the face of the cutting by means of the lifting gear. In practice entire cuttings up to 20 feet deep and 40 feet wide have been worked by these machines, the output varying, go the makers state, from 200 to 300 wagons of 4 cubic yards each per day of eleven hours. The cost of such excava-tion and delivery into wagons is said to De a trifle less than two cents per cubio yard. New York Commercial Adver tiser. lT.KSOXAl R. H.

There is a certain feasible reform that would bo eagerly welcomed by frequent-ers of the theatre. Tho public would be glad to see banished tiio vulgar, volum-inous and inconvenient programmes that nro forced upon them. It is perhaps pardonable that in a house of low grade, both as to tierform.'tnce and public, the progriuiiuie should lie sandwiched into Volume of tawdry advertisements. There is ample pecuniary justification for such Methods, and tho frequenters of third rate places of amusement are not likely to bo delicate as to such details. But where the management caters to a high-er t;uste surely tho averago programme of these days is entirely out of keeping. Nor is it altogether a matter of taste. It is a serious annoyance to spectators who would examine tho cast of a drama to have to rummage through many pages to find it. A man who goes to the play for amusement has a right to insist that the amusement shall bo as unalloyed as possible; and managers would find it to their interest, we should think, to re-spect tho legitimate wishes of their patrons in this regard.

In one of the tropical greenhciises at the Harvard .botanic garden in Cam-bridge may bo seen in flower a wonder-ful and noblo plant belonging to the or-chid family. This magnificent plant, which is technically named Angraecum pesquipedale, is a native of Madagascar, where it is found growing upon trees. In its native country its stem is from three to four feet high; the hiaves, about a foot long, dark, shining green, The flower is about six inches in diameter, ivory white, with a spur from twelve to eighteen inches long, and it has a power-ful fragrance, particularly at night. It was discovered about seventy years ago, but was not introduced in a living state until 1857. It has become famous aa one of the orchids which Darwin was ppwially interested in on account of the exceptional length of its spur. The plant at tbe Cambridge Botanic garden is a particularly good specimen, ami has four Hpikes of flowers, with three bloouia oil each spike. Boston Journal.

John Hunger brought to this city re-cently an arrow head, made of tempered copper, and a number of human bones, which were found in the Rocky Point mine, at Oilman, 400 feet below the snr-f;tc- o of the earth, imbedded in a vein of silver bearing ore. Over $100 worth of oro clung to the hones when they were removed from the mine. The important feature of this discovery is tho fact that these relics were found in the center of a vein of ore, indicating that man was in existence on this conti-nent when the molten metal vas sent coursing through the. fissures c f these mountains.

On and after July 1st next there will be a big reduction in the price of post-ollic- e ooxes. The small boxes will rent for 50 cents per quarter and the large boxes for $1 per quarter. Post-master lionton has secured this reduc-tion from the department after repeat-t- i efforts and is pleased to make the news public. Ily this act he has shown himself to bo nnsellish and to be work-ing for the benefits of tho patrons of the oflico. In the reduction of tho box rents the revenue of the ollice will be reduced about $1:200 per year and a clever slice will be chopped off Mr. Benton's salary. This of itself should convince the public that Mr. Kenton is endeavoring to afford the best service at tbe lowest possible rate. As for the old key redemption act there will be more on this subject, it is understood, later in the month. At present about 1000 boxes have been rented, the re-maining 500 going off at the rale of ten or fifteen per day. Iitri of Six Vara. Horatio Harrison Hughes, of Franklin, is a hero of six wars.
