WILL SOON MAKE TIN.
Wllhln n Tow Works the llnrnry Tcnk
Ciinipiinr Will Stnrt ltd Mill.
Joseph Hare , postmaster at Hill City , S.
D. , Is lu Omaha. He was soon last evening
by a BDE reporter , and as the town from
which ho holli is in the center of the tin dis
tricts of the Black llllls the conversation
naturally drifted to tin and tbo work being
done in that district toward developing that
Industry.
Mr. Ilnro declares that b fore the year Is
post the tin plato liar will bo compelled to
look for another argument to support his
free trade fallacies , as the output of metallic
tin from tbo Black Hills alone will ba moro
than sufficient to controvert the falsehoods
which have been so Industriously circulated.
True , Mr. 'Hnro declares , the output of mo-
tallio tin from the Black Mills has heon very
small to far , and a semblance of truth has
been given tbo many false statements con
cerning the present status of tin mining
there. But this delay , Mr. Hnro says , has
shown the wisdom of the men who have In
vested their money In the Black HIlU mines.
Instead of oracling costly milling and reduc
tion plants und hoisting works and then
hunting for mines , ttu company has found
its mines , developed them , put them In the
host condition to work nnd then commenced
the erection of milling and reduction plants.
The Hnrnoy Pnak company has been pushIng -
Ing work on Its mill , nnd by the 1st of next
Juno it will bo in running order. The mill
will bo ono of the most complete tin mills in
the world , nnd will have n dally capacity of
2.10 tons that Is , It will crush and treat that
Jmount of ere n day. A low estimate ot Iho
output ot metallic tin from this mill Is
twenty tons n week , or 1M ( < ) tons a year. To
supply the demand of the United States at
tbo present titno would rcijuiro fifteen mills
of this size ; to supply tbo world , forty. Tboro
Is an abundance ot ere in tbo Black Hills
to keep supplied moro than double that num
ber of mills , aud arrangements are already
making for Iho erection of several.
"Tbo Hartley Peak company , of course ,
has Its property In bettor shape than any of
tbo ether companies in operation tboro , "
continued Mr. Ilaro. "Spurs from the mam
track of the B. & M. have boon run to nil
their best minoa , so tno question of handling
ere and keeping tbo mill ! ; supplied has now
resolved Itself to merely n matter of getting
the oro. The Addle , as n sample of the work
that has been done by tbo company , has a
shaft 550 leot in depth , tno vein has been
crosscut at different levels , hoisting works
established nnd the miners nro now engaged
in sloping out ere and piling it on the dump.
Tbo Cowboy , Coates , Gertie , Novadu and
Tenderfoot nro other mines on which the
work of development has bean pressed , and in
ovary instance all the mines have shown In
creased richness as depth has been attained.
All tbo above mentioned mines have expen
sive bolsttng apparatus and ether machinery
to facilitate getting out oro.
"Superintendent Chllds , one of the most
experienced minors California bos over produced -
ducod , is in choree of affairs tor the com
pany , and from investigations recently made
by him in the Cornwall mines , ho docs not
hesitate to stake his professional reputation
on the assertion that the Black Hills mines
ore richer and will bo worked cheaper and to
bettor advantage than tboso of that placo.
"Honry C. Wicker , formerly of the North
western Railroad company , associated with
J. G. Rockefeller , Governor McKlnloy and
other prominent men , bas interested himself
in the mines of the Black Hilts. Tbo party
bas a largo number of claims bonded , nud it
Is understood that all those bonds will betaken
taken np next week.
"Tho Black Hills Is moving rlgbt along ,
and is It especially so in regard to tin. Walt
but a few months and you will see. "

ASLVitKMESTS.
The return of Mnic. Modjeska was a wel
come oveut. The distinguished actress came
forth last evening at the new Boyd in the
character of Mary Stuarl , and she was received -
coivod with affectionate intorcst by a largo
and sympathetic audience.
But the embodiment presented to us wns
the Mary of Schiller , not the Mary of his
tory. With the pictures before us which
Mr. Swinburne has painted in poetry and
which Mr. Froudo has depicted through his
tory wo should Indeed lack graoo of culture
or power of criticism if wo could accept
Schiller's portrait as satisfactory.
The play presents no sufficient figure of
the hapless queen , but paints only her sad
end foreshortened and complected by a
love intrlguo with Leicester. But even in
this setting of tears , uublstorlcal as It is ,
that great audlonco lived and breathed thu
atmosphere surrounding the Stuart during
her hours in prison and for the night they
were as loyal to Mary as over her subjects
were , ready to battle if need bo for her
honor and her name.
Froudo says finely ot Mary : "Sho was
her own center of hope , fear and
Interest ; sbo thought of nothing ,
cured for nothing , except as linked
with the gratification ( of some ambition ,
some desire , some passion of her own. " But
the dramatist for his own purpose has for
gotten the real Mary of Scots and given to
the world a beautiful , cultured , sorrowful
woman over whoso head the shadow of the
axe was over present. Aud Modjesua showed
'ast ' night the renowned loveliness , tbo magio
witchery , the high courage and deep narrows
of tbo lalod queen of legendary lore.
Tbo beauty of the artiste's performance
who last night dominated tbo play lies in its
exquisite perfection and its absolute har
mony. Her btudlos are rich In delicate effects
of light and uhado , In intellectual suggestion
and in the most attractive womanly at
tributes. She makosMary accomplished aud
pure , with the graces of the French courr ,
the fervor of a saint and tbo easy majesty
born ot faith In the principles of divine right.
Tbo recaption of Uurlelgh was queenly , as
you would anticipate , nnd she urgucu the
decree of tbo commission with him with a
subtlety that was delightful.
In her great scone with Elizabeth in
Fortberlngay pant , the "Scolding Scene , "
as it has boon well named , she showed with
consummate skill the struggle between prldo
und expediency , and the preservation of her
personal dignity even at tbo moment of cruelest -
est humiliation was the triumph of histrionic
art. The pathos of the "Final Scene of AH" Is
Irroslstablu. ItxU a masterpiece in which
all the devices of art have been utilized to
glvo duo expression to Intellectual purpose
and design. Upon tbo modern stage it 1
doubted if tboro is a greater Mary Stuars
than Modjoska.
TIO ) supporting company Includas names
that have figured in tbo logltlmalo for many
years , and as might bavo been expected give
iutolllgont support to the star. Aud there
are several young men in tbo cast too who
are Just winning their spurs , but the future
holds out its brightest chalice for them ,
Mr. Howard Pyln as Sir Edward Mortimer
won enthusiastic pralso ; although but a com
parative novice , ho showed ability of a line
order , and his impetuous zeal for his queen ,
his line manly bearing and his scholarly
reading were points highly commendatory ,
Mr. Tbulborg was an attractive Earl of
Leicester , the nandsomo deceiver of two
queens , and ho tnado much of his oppor
tunity.
Mr. Beaumont Smith as Sir Amias Pnulot
showed the "good old school" in which hu
wa roared , and bis performancn was worthy
of all consideration.
Mr. John Lane played nurlelgb.but not as
acceptably as eomo other character * in
which ho has boon seen.
Mlis Kuto Meek waa disappointing as
Quoou Elizabeth. In the quieter scone , not
ably in the meeting with Leicester , tbo
pledging of Mortimer to murder Mary , and
the signing of tbo death warrant ho was
( rood , but In the mooting with the Stuart at
Forlhoringay caatlo sbo failed to show the
ucoru and contempt sbo felt for the usurper
who aured cross a Tudor in her purpose.

The day was passed mostly In n , gonornl dli-

representing the Nebraska State Dairymen's
association , addrcmcd the commisson re
specting coacosslons to bo asked from the

At the meeting this forenoon it transpired
that the plans and specifications prepared by
Architect Woods of tnts city and adopted by
the board were rejected by D. H. Buriibam ,
superintendent , of construction at Chicago.
Air. Burnhnm pointed out his objections and
Mr. Woods has prepared entirely new drawIngs -
Ings of a much more nlaborato nature. lu
the meantime Architect Voss of Omaha
mada a pilgrimage to Chicago with a &ol
of plans of bis own , which ho sub
mitted to the powers that be. At
the suggestion of the supervising architect
ho nmdo certain alterations and today came
to Lincoln with his rovlsod plans. In order
to ascertain whether tbo Chicago authorities
had arrived at any conclusion in regard to
tbo revised plans prepared by Architect
Woods a telegram was sent to Chicago this
morning. This afternoon the following
reply was received : "Wrote you yesterday.
Prefer Voss' revised plans to Woods' . "
This Information created something of a
flurry among tbo members of the commission
who favor the plans prepared by Mr. Woods.
Have Spent Money I.nvlsluy.
If the commission has not done much of a
nrnctlcnl naturn during tho'eight months of
its existence , it has at least spent money
with a lavish hand. Under the law and the
rules of the commission the president of the
commission is made tno solo disbursing
officer. The by-laws as originally proparea
provided that no money could bo paid out ex
cept upon a warrant drawn by the secretary
of the commission after the claim for which
It was drawn had been duly examined and
auuitod by the commission at a regular moot-
lug. This was evidently not satisfactory to
sorao parties , as the rule was afterwards
amended so as to provide that an amount
not to exceed f 1.000 per inontn might bo
paid by the president upon warrants drawn
by the commissioner general without tbo
bills for which the warrants were drawn
being allowed by the executive council of the
commission. It was further provided , how
ever , that all such bills must DO presented to
the executive council at least once n month ,
anil must also bo passed upon by the com
mission at tbo npxt regular meeting after
such Pills have been allowed. It wns the
adoption of this rule that led Iho commission
Into deep water , . 03 the following results will
show :
Money Kxnciulcd unit Not Accounted For.
The law appropriating the money necessary
for the state exhibit provided that no moro
than fo.OOO of the un tire amount appropriated
should bo expended the first year.
Under tbo administration of President
Strong the expenditures have reached
the limit , or at least tbo entire
sum of $5,000 has been driuvn from tbo state
treasury. There is a balance still in the
hands of President Stranc , but Commls-
.sloner General Garneau stated today that it
woula not amount to moro than $1,000. The
only thing on record to show wbora all this
money bus cone to is iho record In the audi
tor's ofllce , which shows that warrants have
boon paid to the following named patties for
the amounts attached to each : H. H. Groer ,
f290 ; A. I. . . Slrancr , $370 ; S. L. Brass , $137 ;
Eric Johnson , $104 : 11. B. Miller , $100 ; J. H.

Journal company , tiS.CO ; M. W. Carder ,
KELTS ; A. G. Scott , fci'J.05 ; furniture , print
ing , general supplies end extra labor.
fTUO.18. The above accounts appear
to have bean audited by A. L. Strang
H. H. Grcor and Governor Thayor. No
vouchers have noon filed or presented to tbo
commission by either Messrs. Grour or
Strang. The commission , as a commission ,
has never passed upon any exconso account
with the exception of that of Mr. Greer.
'Ihero is nothing on tbo records of tbo com
mission to show why the sum of $700.13 was
expended for furniture , printing , general
supplies and extra labor. Tboro is nettling
to show what the furniture : was for , whore
It is and for whom it was purchased. .No
member of the commission knows what is
included In tbo term "general supplies. "
Neither do any of them know who performed
ttio "extra labor , " nor why it was performed.
It wns stated in the foronoun mooting today
that President Strung U the only man who
can throw any light upon tbo subject and be
is In Texas and not expected to return until
the latter part of next woolf.
There will bo a general house cleaning by
the reorganised commission. Commissioner
Gala stilled today in open meeting that tor
0110 ho did tut propose to como Into the com-
muslon and at once shoulder the criticisms
of the people , of the state for the shortcom
ings ot former members of the body , without
knowing Juat what had been dona , Ho
wanted a "clean bill of health" bofora nro-
coodlng turthcr. While his remarks elicited
no comment from other members of the com
mission it was apnanmt tnat they made an
impression and it Is altogether probable that
the people of the state will soon bo informed
as to tbo particular * of the worklncs of their
commission before much moro is accom
plished.
School I.umMThrown on tli Market ,
Tbo State Board of Educational Lands and
Funds bos decided to put the school lands of
( Jruut county upon the market , and tboy
will bo appraised and offered for sale or Icaso
ot once. These lands comprise lio.lXJO acres ,
and nro valuable for agriculture and grazing.
The school sections in Boyd county will uUo
bo put upon the market at onco. Tboso lands
nro all Uno agricultural and stock lands and
will undoubtedly attract the attention of set
tlors. The part of the state in wtilcb they
