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.

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. It would bo an unpanlonabla omission was not reference made to tbo veteran , Bon G , Rogers who played Molvlllo and played it With flno discrimination.

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.

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. Powers , SS0.1T ; H. P. Mobloy , fr7UO ( ; state Journal company , tiS.CO ; M. W.

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.
