Lulu Chaser.

The book that Harry B. Smith turned out for Miss Dolly Dollars" is said to fairly scintillate with jokes that are new and good natured satire. The book was written especially for Miss Lulu Glaser, who enacts the title role. Metropolitan critics are unanimous in their opinion that Miss Chaser was never seen or heard to better advantage than as Miss Dolly Dol lars" Local patrons of light music will have an opportunity to judge for them selves, as Miss Glaser and the same cast and production she used at the Knicker- booker and New Amsterdam theatres will play an engagement at the Jefferson the atre Tuesday. The sale of seats will com- mence Saturday morning.

It is probable that the contractors for the grading of the site for the new union passenger station and the digging of the Fifth avenue subway will put the steam shovel to work Monday morning. From that time on the work will progress very rapidly and within three or four weeks the grading will be practically complet- ed.
 Stollitt & Co. of Chicago, the contrac- tors for the construction, have had a force of laborers at work for the past week or ten days on the preliminary grading. The steam shovel will be op- erated from a temporary track to be laid. and will remove about 150O cubic yards of dirt day.
 There are probably seventy-five men at work on the site at present. and that number will be materially inereas- ed next week.

REPORT ON GEOLOGY
OF TRRALL MOUNTAIN

J. p. Mackenzie, mining engineer, in
making a report on the Camp Bird
Smuggler, Last Chance and Dixie
groups on Mt. Thrall. has the following
to say of this district:
Mount Thrall is about IL miles south
of Goldheld in the Cuprite mining dis
trict, about two miles west of the sur
vey recently made for the railroad to
Bullfrog and on the chain of isolated
buttes and elongated uprises on which
Tonopah, Gold mountain. Goldfeid and
Thran mountain, with Tokop further
south, are located All these camps are
amous mining camps with the excep-
ton of Thrall mountain now entering
the producing stage also. The chain of
mountains referred to are of a secord-
airy order and elections from a assure
in the plutonic which extends far be-
yond the districts indicated on the
small plat as evidenced by the futed
and serrated appearance of the noun
tain range on it's trunk. This great
assure cutting the earth's crust to un-
known depths formed a plain of weak

ness through which subsequent move
ments found relief and pent up solu-
tions carrying valuable metals escaped,
depositing their contents with decreas-
ing temperature and where other favor
able conditions obtained. 1t will be
noted all the camps in question are on
l~aterals or the points where the con-
traction of the surface yielded to a
north and south pressure corresponding
to the setting up of the assure and at
almost right angles to it. The two oc-
c%urrences differ in geologic time and
proximity; the assures are about 80
miles apart while the laterals vary from
10 to 20. as may be observed by the dis
tances between these camps, reckoning
from Tonopah. Gold Mountain 10. Gold

Thrall mountain arches up in the
desert as shown on view / and is of late
tertiary age similar to the other fam
Gus camps, and the faulting of the
crust is the most exact repetition OF the
Jumbo ~outcropping, only on a much
wider scale, that could be produced. and
indicates a subsistence of the range fav-
orable to foldings at depth, a popularity
of all important ore deposits, and al
though no development with the excep-
ton of location work has been per-
formed, the huge lodges that traverse
the mountains and oft recurring vents
in ~decomposed rock formation furnish
unmistakable evidence of a highly min
eralized zone beneath a deduction sus-

worker ever since.
Spencer.
Frank Jayne, living three miles
northeast of Spencer, met with very
serious accident. He was stacking
hay, and having finished stack,
thought he would descend by the hay
stacker route. There was slack rope
when he got on the stacker. and his
weight carried the implement down
with such force that when the rope
frightened it broke and let him fam to
the ground, distance of about fifteen
feet His left arm was dislocated at
the elbow, and the ligaments badly in
jured his upper lip was pierced clear
thru and he received other injuries. A
surgeon was called and Mr.. Us in
juries repaired so far as possible, but
he is doubtless disabled for the ball

| Fire, supposed to be of incendiary
origin, destroyed the new barn and
contents on the William Reudel farm,
two miles southwest of here, Sunday
afternoon. The tenant on the place is
Louis Turner. He and his family were
away from home at the time, being in
Dewar to witness a game of base ball.
When discovered by the neighIbors, the
flames were licking up the structure in
a rapid manner, and it was impossible
to stay their progress. The barn and
all it's contents were consumed, includ-
ing LOO bushels Of corn, new wagon,
| harness, etc., and an adjoining hog
house. The burning of the barn on this
same farm about year ago was also
believed to have been incendiary.
Moorhead.
The people of our little city were
aroused by the ringing of the Christian
church bell to discover the barn on j.
B. Moorhead's place north of town to
| be in flames. Mr.. Moorhead's son-in-
law occupies the place. His daughter
! was the first to discover the fire, and at
once gave the alarm, but the fire was
under such Roadway as to make it i'm

there We're six in the barn, and all per-
| shed. Five of these belonged to Mr..
| Van Scoy, and one to Charles Ballan-

VanScoy. This latter was a handsome
sorrel driver, for which he had been
offered $3.50 few weeks ago. The
barn was valued at $500, only partially

of the fire is unknown but to all APP

and it is thought some vagrant had
spent the night there and dropped a
match before leaving the barn.
