GIIIhOoley's Reception.

Opera House Tuesday, November
%. No more marked change in the
theatrical business in recent years has
been noted than the very decided up
ward trend of that branch of it known
as the "Vsudeville." Some years ago
the term variety was thought syn
onymous of that which was course Or
vulgar. To certain extent this was
true, but with the recruiting from the
Legitimate" ranks of actors and &C
tresses of standing in the operate and
dramatic fields the VaudeYilles took
on more healthy complexion. There
is no reason why this should not be so.
A Vaudeville performance is made up
today to afford the greatest pleasure
to the greatest number. There is little
or no attempt at plot. There is no
strain on the mental faculties. You
come there to be entertained, and you
are, without an effort on your part.
You hear good singing and see beanti-
full costumes. Walter J. Mcdonald
has introduced vaudeville" in his
farce-comedy "Gillhooley's Recep-
ton" 1t has proved success. The
people want it and he is reaping the
benefit by pleasing his patrons. Re-
served seats are now on sale at Han
son & Emerson's drug store. Prices

400 Pretty Homes aud Gardens.

How general the use of photography
is coming to be adopted by the modern
magazine as means of illustration
is shown in the announcement of The
Ladies' Home Journal that it is about
to publish six new, distinct series of
articles which will include not less
than 400 photographs. The idea of
the magazine is to present one hundred
of the prettiest country homes in
America, to encourage artistic archi-
lecture; one hundred of the prettiest
gardens, to encourage taste in foricul-
ture; seventy churches decorated for
festal occasions of all kinds, such as
weddings, Christmas and Easter SER
vices, etc.; some forty Of the prettiest
girls rooms in this country; twenty
five floral porches and vine-clad
houses; and the story of the native
wild flowers in America, told in seven
ty-fve photographs. Over 5000 photo
graphers, in every part of the country,
were employed by the magazine to get
these pictures, and several thousands
of dollars were paid in prize awards
for the best photographs. The choice
was made out of 10000 photographs
received by the magazine.

Arrangements nave been made by which the war news bulletins of the Associated Press are daily sent to La Colorado and Minas Prietas by wire, and are within a short time posted at the hotels and principal resorts. By this arrangement the people of the entire camp get the latest news at the earliest possible moment. About twenty-four hours after they have read and digested it daily newspaper from Nogales reaches camp with the same news.
 Some three weeks ago large area of ground, about sixty feet across, near the Creston hoist, caved in early one morning. the ground being above some of the old workings of the mine. The railroad track leading up to the hoist crossed the place that fell, and but few hours before the mishap a locomotive had crossed the place with several cars. Work of retilling has been prosecuted vigorously, and in the meantime the necessary wood and supplies are hauled in by teams.
 MT. A. Nicholson, is now foreman of the machine shop of the Colorado Creston Company, at Minas Prietas, in the place recently filled by c. l. Rollin, whose acceptance of the post of chief engineer for the Santa Rosa l:a Co.,, is noted elsewhere. MT. Nich- olson was originally from the big shops of Fraser X Chalmers, in Chi cago, and is an expert at his calling. The Colorado.C Creston Co. are to be congratulated upon securing the ser vices of so capable man.
 At the Grand Central hoist gang of men are grading an area for wood- yard, for new building, in which is to be placed large fine air comDres- sor, and station for rail tramway betweed the mill and the hoist. Ore is carried down from the hoist to the mill by an Otto tramway; but all the wood, timbers, mine tools, etc, have to go up by wagon on circuitous road. The new tramway will take up all such supplies quickly and directly at a great saving in cost.

 A new set of boilers is being set up at the Grand Central hoist, making a battery of six boilers which will all be needed for the work required.
 MT. John L. Miller is grading the ground for the wood yard, air con- pressor and tramway station at the Grand Central hoist. He has fifteen men working on the contracts.
 The Grand Central Co. has enclosed all Of it's grounds with substantial wire fences, having regular entrances and exits which serve to keep off the grounds many idlers who have been frequently purloiners of unconsider. ed trifes that in the aggregate reach ed quite value
 On the evening of May 5th very elegant bailc was given at Minas Prletas. It was largely attended by the gentry of both camps and as everything was conducted in. the usual whole-souled and generous man ner for which the Mexican people are noted, it is needless to say that the function was grand success.
 About two miles, east of La Colo rado, MT. Pedro Negro is working La Patria mine as much as the dearth of water will permit him to do. He has 3 Huntington mill which can be run upon the water supply bumped out of the mine forty-eight hours at a time, twice month. With that he gets about s4,000 in gold each month.
 Doctor d. 5. Williams, has return ed from very successful trip to La Dura, Alamos and other points in the Southeast, and has again opened his dental parlors at La. Colorado. Dr.. Williams is one of the most com petent and successful dental practi- tioners in the country, and his work gives the most complete satisfaction.
 MT. Tom Jones is about to return to England, and expects to be at his home in Southampton about the 29th of the present month. Tom is an old man-of-wars-man, and asserts that he is going back to re-enlist in the Brit ish navy with full expectancy that before the present troubles are over he will be in an allied fleet where the warships of old England and the Unit ed States will be in line against common foes.
 At the time it occurred mention was made in THE OASIS of the theft Of about thirty boxes of giant powder, couple of months ago, from the Col orado-Creston Go. For a time 1t seemed impossible toidnd any trace of the missing explosive or to locate the theiyes, although several suspects were under suryilance and others under arrest. Recently information was receivedwhich led to a search at one of the numerous outside mines not far away, where no less than 2s boxes of the missing powder were found secreted.

LIFE OF A FIRE ENGINE.
Twenty Years Of Work May he Ex.
Deoted of One Before the Junk
r'.--'. Man Gets 1t.

The life Of fire engine in this city in
its first use is ten years. 1t is then re-
bhilt and is good, either in regular
service or as a reserve engine, for ten
years more. After 20 years of service
the old engine is sold at auction, says
the New York Sun.
1t may be bought by another city or
town for use as fire engine. but this
happens very rarely. The engines are
heavy. and they must be drnwn by
horses, so they are not adapted for use
in smaller cities. The old engine is
oftener bought by contractor, for use,
for instance. in pumping out cellars. In
such service a steam pressure of so
pounds might be ample for the work,
while in fire service pressure Of $50
pounds might be required. In such
work as this the old engine might last
three or four years more. #.'.
Sometimes the discarded fire depart
ment engine is bought by junk dealer,
who breaks it up for the metals it. con-
tains, and this is what they all come to
at last.-N. Y. Sun. :.......
