This underground apartment is next shown, with the fleeing uncle aparently caged.

They sent east, and a large number of young men came out to Cheyenne and Laramie City. They were given employment, but soon became as accomplished thieves as the old-timers, They were brought into association with the old-time herders, and being told of the fortunes that had been amassed in a few years by stealing stock, they readily concluded tocommencesimilaroperations, 1 did think,” observed Mr. Colyille, |he falls and is supposed to be killed.

It now seems possible that Miss Davenport may not remain in my theatre beyond Decerber 24, though she could play hero to important profits for a long time after that. The out-of- town managers are anxious to have her engagements kept, and she will have dif- ficulty in postponing them longer, That is what makes me sorry. I have arranged for the production of tho ‘Pavements of Paris” at Niblo's Garden. I think that play is going to be a strong success, It is, to my mind, a pieco of muchMthe same general tone as the ‘Streets of New York," ‘Streets of London,’” and similar dramas, but it has the advantage of a general interest not unlike that of the “T'wo Orphans.’ 1 have alteady laid out had Mr. Haley and his corps of 24 people employed for the past three months on the propertles, and all these things cost eight tableaus, as it was played in Paris. Frenchmen like things to be done in this way. Butin this country we are not fond of a large number of acts. I saw thav Brooks and Dickson would not be able to agree with me ov this point, and I bought them out entirely. Mr. Poole, of Niblo's, Mr. Fred Williams, and my- self have been at work together over Mr. Jazauran's bare translation, and we have condensed it into a four act play. The first sceno is laid in a Parisianrailway sta- tion, and it serves to introduce all the important personages of the play. The effect is made picturesque {) a large way porters, and the like. It is devel- oped that a wealthy Countess has a num- ber of years prevously given birth to a daughter, whose father had been exceed- inglyanxiousfora maleheir. Thechild was sent to be reared in a respectable family in the province of Lorraine. When she was still a little thing the Prussians in- vaded the district and she was supposed to have been killed in the general slaughter. She was, however, saved by a young French soldier and brought uj among the peasantry. In company wicg a green young fellow from thesame prov- ince sho has come to Paris in search of work. There her companion finds the advertisement of a man who has just opened an intelligence office on a great scale, In the ‘second scene they .are I have of flags for some time past, with a scopic views of various historical events to whomsoever may care to come and sce mute contemplation of the prospect of one hand and manipulate a magic lantern with the other, the manager paused, with a paternal smile, and then went on' talk- ““There is no use,” said he, *‘in doing We are Here he is confronted with the boy who has seen him commit his crime from the roof, and, driven fairly to the wall, he kills himself. The last act is what I con- sider certain to raise the play above the ordinary run of gutter dramas, - 1t is al- most purely an ideal piece of work. It shows the apartments of the countess,who ¢ |is the heroine's mother, She is revealed as o good and wealthy woman, whose deeds of charity have endeased her to all with whom she has come in contact., Her 1ife has been saddened by the loss of her daughter, and she has under some mes- meric influence received the conviction that the child still lives, Reclining upon her couch, she falls into a doze, and the various incidents in the early life of her child pass before her. A number of mov- ing tableaux have been arranged te occur behind gauze drops at the back of the stage, giving a picturesque effect to this scene.

The ranchmen of Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico, and in fact of the other territories and states where cattle-raising has been car- ried on to any great extent, have sufferea many wrongs at the hands of herders, who have, by their propensities for stock stealing, grown ricfi faster, frequently, than their employers. The manner in which herders sncceed in stealing stock is bold, yet bwt few of the thieves have been brought to justice, owing to the lack of evidence to eonvict them. A herder applies to a ranchman for employment. &a is questioned as to what experience he has had, and his answers invariably prove satisfactory. He is given a position, and begins his work. He rides over a tract of land owned by his employer. In a gulsh or some secluded spot he finds a heifer with a good-looking calf. He pulls out his pistol and shoots thie heifer dead. The thief carries a brand of his own and im- mediately places it on the calf. Dhe car- cass of the dead heifex is soon devoured by wild beasts. At the “roundup! in the spring or fall the cattle are brought' in and the thieving herder then puts in found applying for work at this agency, his claim, Ho says that he owns acer- vipal charactersare introduced,the mother receives her daughter and her soldier The peculiarity of the piece is that nearly all the characters are eccentric There is nothing of the cat Even He will be played by Harold Forsburgh.

This woman hires her ostensibly to wait on the table, but in reality with other de- signs in view. Her unele, who is heir to the vast estates of the count in easo of the girl's death, is searching for proofs that will convince the ‘authorities of her removal, This matter is developed in the intelligence ofice scene. The third set represents one of the Paris mar- kets. After some characteristic business the heroine and her new employer eater, and it comes to the young girl's knowl: edge what use is to be made of her. She attempts to escape, and an exciting scene follows, which brings the act to a close with her rescue by the ung seldier. In the second act the scene is laid in the ragpickers’ quarter of Paris. The people are on the verge of revolt, and are having celebrated members of their eraft, and a eneral and grotesque jolity prevails, ere the villainous uncle, who has learned of the actual existence of the young girl who stands between him and the attainment of 800,000f., eomes to take steps for her removal. He finds & rascally eccentric named Flachon, who is agreeable to the perpetration of an assas- sination or two, and the twain smmeud to lay thewr plans. Thus far the plot proceeds when the act terminates with a clodoche dance as a culmination of the ragpickers’ jollification. The third act is where the main effects of the play are to be brought forward, 1t nycuu in the home of the youngsoldier and his mother, Here'the heroine has been brought for safe-keeping after the market aflair. The day marks the anniversary ot the birth of the soldier's wmother, and there are some pretty home services in connec- tion with the event. The heroine has meantime been apprised of the existence of her own mother, and that very day sheis to go with her seldier lover and seck her out. She ascends to her room in an upper story to complete her toilet for the my. In her appart- nfent the uncle and ‘comic villian, have secreted t! death. They soeks to make his escape.

The operation of this agreement has proved ef: little or no avail. When one ranch had been robbed by a herder he notified the other mem- bers of the associations and thus it was expected to stop the nefarions practice. The herders learngd of the agreement ex- isting between the gtock-rasers, and to aveid being identified by ranchmen from whom they expected to receive employ- ment they assumed a fictitious name, By this means they avoided idenditication and: succeeded in carrying on their thieving operations. During the meeting of the Wyoming cattle-growers the matter was fully discussed and the gomeral deter mination of thoso present was that the thieving herders must go. A system was adopted by which the thieving herders can be identified, and it will be adopted by the Cattle-growers’ association of Colorado. 1 is th A herder is employed by a cottle-raiser and told that he can have castle, but they wust run with those of his employer and bear the latter's brands. To avoid any dispute at the ‘‘ round-up,” the cottle- raiser gives the herder a certificate, which certifies that he owns a certain number of stock. The herder must not be the owner of a brand, soon as o herder registors a brand, the stock-raisers are informed,and the would -~ be thief is summarily bounced. Before this, however, if it has been possible to. do 80, photographs of all the henders om- ployed by the stosk-raisers have been ubtained. 1f the photograph of the thiev- ing herder has nod been procuzed, a mi- nute description of him has been ob- tained, of the Cattle-growers' assosiation, and thus the thief 1s debarred from obtain- ing & position. nal of Commerce, of this city, who is a By this means, as| This is sent to all the members Capt.
