It Is believed that the situation, so far as the government is concerned, is lost. Louis Borno, minis ter of state, has banded in his resignation and taken Tefuge in te German legation, and there now remain in office only three high governmental officials General Tpontp rolnlstpr nf the interor.

All other ministers resigned, with the exception of Gentral Celestln Cyriaque, who after his defeat by Insurgents is believed to have found refuge In one of the foreign consulates.

The first visit to this vicinity of a play that has swept both south ana north like a cyclone Is an event of tnore than ordinary interest! The Or-pheum Is fortunate in securing "The Clansman" for December 10th. Both the company and the production promised are identical with thobu seen In the leading theatres of New York and Chicago. None of the features that have made "The Clansman" so popular the past three seasons Is omitted.

The Ku Klux Klan cavalry, thd beau tiful pictures of southern life and scenery, the chivalric men, lovely women and darkles of tho reconstruction period, all will be there. "The Clansman" Is briefly the story of how the descendants of the Scottish clans, living In the South Carolina hill country. Jose up In the year or 186 1 and threw off the carpetbag- Eer joke. Their agency In effecting Vtro'T Ben Cameron, is a leader of the Klan. Hls sweetheart.

Elsie Stoneman. Is the daughter of an Abolitionist, tho organizer of the hated Union League. Here Is the Interplay of love and hate, of passion and circumstance, in which the dramatist delights. Elsie's father puts forth every effort to enforce negro domination, and Ben as stoutly resists. Tho latter ts arrested and clapped la.

jail by the scalawag white governor of tho state, wao is egged on by the mnlatto l'eutenant governor. Silas Lynch- A federal court martial Sentences Ben zJ1, lieutenant says he -will -jf Elsie -will -him Wm Elide taints at tho sac-eking proposal. Stonema Stoneman enters and is maddened on learning what ms trusted protege Lynch has dona. He has encouraged Lynch about so-c'al equality and indeed has told him to go ahead and marry a white wo man; dui wnen ue learns L.ynca wants els own daugoter, "that is another story and his rage and disgust are beyond bounds. Yet Soneman and his daughter are helpless in the hands of the mulatto.

It Is the Ku Klux Klan who. headed by the rescued Ben, surround the house, make Lynch a prisoner and free tho old man and his daughter. Stoneman at last sees his gigantic mistake In trying to rule tho country by carpetbaggers and negroes and In InstlU'ng false Ideas of social and political equality. He announces that he will make yet another trip to Washington to Induce tie authorities there to withdraw the federal troops and allow the southern people to manage their affairs in their own way. Ben and Elsie are united.

A fairer day begns for that portion of tho stricken south, thanks to the high purpose, steadiest courage and heroic I'uipwe. tits achievements of the Ku Klux Klan, "an Invisible empire which within a gertnanTrn Europe. snd twwfr out or defeat and death, and tore the fruits of victory from twenty I million conquerors." GOMES TO THE FRONT Solid LODDer CaillD That Has the Ore and Will Be Successful. Too much cannot be said or printed about the new Courtland district, north of Douglas anc we reproduce the following concerning the new district from the El Faso Alining Journal: "Courtland (generally known heretofore as Leadvllle) is north from Douglas, In Cochise county, and on I he excellent iagon road.

It Is predicted by mining men of judgment that Courtland will develop Into one of the best mining camps of tho section, simply because it has so excellent a showing. C.

O. Ellis, tho Douglas banker, stated the 1 other day that In several places in tne camp Important 'oro bodies have been run Into and cut for varying The new district Is so close to Douglas, the business of that city must expand considerably as Courtland increases in 'size and Importance. Douglas people believe tno Southwestern will put In a lino to tho new camp, especially now since the Phelps-Dodge people have secured Interests and aio working there. At this time several hundred men aro reported working at the new camp, and the belief is that the development will necessitate the employing of several thousand and that production can begin within a short time. Some ot the properties already have considerable tonnage ot excellent ore on their dumps.
