A Nickname that Stuck.

"Bluestone Kelly, Reno"
The above was the manner of the
address on telegram which arrived
in Reno yesterday from an eastern
mining man.
The Western Union messenger
boy had no hesitancy in delivering
the message to J. w. Kelly at the
Clarendon.
This nickname was given to Mr..
Kelly by the Journal while he was
negotiating the sale of the famous
mine in Mason Valley.
He has never been able to shake off
the appelation. In fact, since the
Bluestone has become such a good
producer, he has come to prefer it to
his baptismal name.-Re1loJ Journal.
