THE ACT BETWEEN AcTs .

Going out between the acts is the old
subject that some of our dailies are
taking up again. Some of the people
they have interviewed defend and others
abuse the habit. Playsoers cannot be
penned up for whole evening; they go to
place of amusement for recreation, and
it is their privilege to emerge and return
whenever they choose, provided they
don t interfere with the enjoyment of the
rest of the assembiage. 1t is unques-
tionably desirable to go out and stretch
ones legs and inhale breath of fresh
air during the intermission, for
to sit three hours in your
seat induces cramp, while the

Mss Maddern has many reminders that
she has red hair, but the most noted one
and one of which she may well be proud
was that which occurred at the opening
of her season in Philadelphia, September
last. The occasion was also the opening
of the new Standard theater. At the close
of the second act there was Il vigorous call;
and as the curtain rose a floral white horse
sixteen hands high was run from the
center aisle over temporary bridge TO
the stage. The fair actress. was com
pletely dumbfOunded, in fact almost
frightened; but when last seen by the
audience as the curtain descended she
had caught the double significance of the
tribute and was gleefully running her
hands through her more than auburn

The Change Made.

The Rock Point mill has been leased to
Senator Williams, for period often months,
who has a contract to crush ore from the
Savage mine. c. c. Stevenson's lease of the
site upon which his mill is built would have
expired the first Of next August, but he has
had the time extended six months and then
leased to Williams until the expiration OF that
time. The rock will be hauled from the
Savage mine over the V. & T. and c. & c.
via the Mound House. Wsrk will be begun
to day building a switch from the C. & c..
to the Rock Point mill. This switch will
branch of from the main line just east Of
Chinatown and will run close to the river,
crossing the Rock Point ditch near The dam
A restle will be built to allow the ore cars
to run up high enough IN front OF the mill
to dump into the mill At present ore is be
ing hauled to the mill by teams, and the
mill will start in a few days with twenty
stamps. The switch will be ready for use
in two or three weeks, and the mill will be
kept running steadily. There will be no
change Of hands in the mill, nor will there
be any additional stamps put in at present.
The change will be beneficial, however, as it
will probably keep the mill running steadily,
for there will be no stops for want of rock

A Virtue Club.

Dayton has fullhedged association Of
mod ern Pharisees, male and female, who
thank God that they are not like the rest Of
the community-miserable sinners. Their
meetings are secret, are opened with prayer
and are closed with a dolorous howl, to
which the dexology is as lively as jig.
Females to be eligible must always have been
in sight of mamma, or SO homely that Cupid
would have fit at sight Of them, or so
ancient as to have left love fer behind them,
and virtue their only remaining solace. The
men must be those to whom vice or age has
made virtue compulsory, or if their blood is
warm and quickens through their veins,
they must give heavy bonds that their inten-
tons are fundamentally inclined and they
must make affidavit that henceforth a deck
of cards will fill them with horror and a
glimpse of golden wine or corn juice will
give them the hydrophobia. They are also
put under bonds not to leave Dayton unless
chaperoned. One of the by laws is to the
effect that no manifestation Of affection more
ardent than hand shake or the blowing OF
kiss from finger tips must be INDUCED in.
One must meet the above requirements and
must prefer 'rhe lilies and languors Of viz
tue" to the "roses and raptures of vice" If
order TO become one Of this gilt,edged, sane
rihed circle.

large supply of ore on the dump and ample
reserves in the mine, and the company is
now on a money making footing.
The Star mine in ellis District is more
than fulfilling expectations. The shaft is
now down I4o feet with good ore in the bot
tom. A drift hus been run fifty feet from
the seventy foot level, which shows a strong
ledge of good ore all the way. The shaft
will be sunk twenty feet deeper, when drift
ing will be begun. Enough ore has been
taken out in sinking to more than pay the
expenses of development, and when the
miners begin stopping the profits will be large,
as the pay rock is in sight to work On.

"PIUTE TOM, MURDERED.
His Throat Cut, Skull Crushed and
Body Riddled With BuckshOt.


Last Monday evening word was received
by Sheriff Brann and Justice Hawkins, Of
this place, that an Indian, well.known in
this part Of the country as "Piute Tom,"
had been killed at the old Buckl and ranch
some twenty miles below Dayton on the
Carson River, by three other Piutes. Early
the next morning the Sheriff and Justice left
for the scene of the murder, and upon reach
ing the ranch learned the following:
Monday morning about ten o'clock three
Piutes rode into field on the ranch where
the two Foster boys, "Tom" and another
man were ballng hay, and when within
few yards of "Tom" opened fire on him
with their muskets. "Tom" at the time was
on top of hay stack pitching of hay, and
he fell at the first fire. The men became
greatly alarmed and ran for the house which
was about a mile and half distant from
where they were at work, in their haste
jumping into and swimming the river instead
of crossing at the ford. Arriving at the
house they related what had occurred, and
one of the men stated that as he ran he
looked back, saw "Tom" raise up on the
stack, and as he raised he was again shot
| by one Of the Indians who was crawling up
| on the side OF the stack. In two or three
hours the men went back to the field The
murderers had of course fed, and "Tom's"
body was found riddled with bullets and
buckshot, his throat cut from ear to ear and
his skull crushed by blows from crowbar.
in neaf pine box, and a ter Judgh Hawkins
held the inquest, Tuesday, the remains were
buried near the old Fort Churchill grave
yard
"Piute Tom" had been working on the
Buekland or Marsh ranch, for the past six.
teen or seventeen years. He had a squaw
and two grown up sons, the former being
now at the ranch He also has sister who
is working at the Vail ranch. From her
the Sheriff learned that the Piutes who did
the killing rode by the Vail ranch early
Monday morning and enquired for "Tom."
She, not suspecting what was up, gave them
the desired inferma ton and they rode on
She described the Indians and said they
were from Walker River.
1t is reported that "Tom" some time ago
was suspected OF poisoning tive Indians near
Walker River, and it is for this reason he
was killed. There is not much credence
put in this report "Tom" was a well edu-
Gated Piute, could talk excellent English
and was good worker and the probabilities
are he was killed because he knew to much
for the balance Of the tribe.
Wednesday morning Sheriff Brann left for
Mason Valley to look for the murderers.
He has good description of them, and one
is well known as bad Indian and fighter.
1t is hoped the Sheriff will capture the three
Indians for if he does not Toms" boys
will make the trouble general.

The suggestive name, "Doctoring Old
Time" brings to our mind another YER
sion of the title used for another
purpose-"Old Time Doctoring."
We learn, through a reliable source,
that one of the enterprising proprietary
medicine firms of the country has been
for years investigating the formulas and
medical preparations used in the begin
ming of this century, and even before,
with view of ascertaining why people
in our great grandfathers' time enjoyed
health and physical vigor so seldom
found in the present generation. They
now think they have secured the secret

ing opinion that then existed, that
Mature has remedy for every exist
ing disorder" was true, and acting under
this belief, our grandparents used the
common herbs and plants. Continual
trespass upon the forest domain has
made these herbs less abundant, and has
lriven them further from civilization,
until they have been discarded, as rene
lial agents, because of the difficulty of
obtaining them.
II. H. Warner, proprietor of Warmers
afe cure, and founder Of the Warner
observatory, Rochester, n. Y, has been
pressing Investigations in this direction,
into annals of old family histories, until
be has secured some very valuable
formulas, from which his firm is now
preparing medicines, to be sold by all
druggists.
