Friday Eve Attraction

Ben Hendricks, the popular actor
and comedian, is again presenting the
best of Swedish dialect plays, "Ole

have attended his previous starring
tours in this play, a succession Of
crowded houses that is seldom broken,
giving tribute to his well directed eff
forts in the star part and to the ex-
cellence of his supporting company.
Mr.. Hendricks other specialties will
be at the Armory Hall next Friday
night, and will doubtless attract that
large class of amusement lovers that
gets enjoyment from wholesome
comedy naturally presented.
"The Swedish Ladies Quartette" is
a factor in the entertainment and the
singing of this organization of at
tractive Swedish lasses is always an
feature.

This doesn't r.ean that Tuscarora

The trouble was all caused by Jack
Frost. He CONCEALED the water sup

the general shut down.
Balmy spring will soon start the
mines and mills and Tuscarora will
resume it's wonted activity. The ore
measures are said to be looking better
there than for years.
Mr.. Taylor says that Bull Run, 20
miles northwest of Tuscarora, prom
ises to become one of the richest
camps in Nevada. The new owners
are prepared to spend hundreds of
thousands of dollars getting the mine
in shape to produce and reduce large
amount of ore in an economical man
