COOPERATION WILL
MEAN SUCCESS

The following communication from
Mark w Musgrove, appointed by Gov
ernor Sparks as Nevada Commission
er to the International Mining Expo
sition, is timely and his plea to the
press of this state should be. given
hearty support. The gentleman isl
showing aggressiyeness in his atten-
ton to the new position and it is
very evident Nevada will be Strongly
represented at the exposition. Mr.
Musgroye can make his efforts all the
more effective with the hearty sup
port of the press and he and the eX-
position should be kept in mind.
Reno, Nevada.
To the Nevada Press Having
been appointed by Governor Sparks
Commissioner from Nevada to the In
ternational Mining Exposition TO be
held at Madison Square Garden, in
the city of New York, in the summer
OF 1908, it is proper to call your at
tention TO the great Importance OF
this matter. and the desirability OF
Nevada having as complete and full
a representation as il is possible to
secure.
This is in no sense a Mining Con-
gress but an Exposition where the
Commissioners from every mining
region in the world will, no doubt,
represent their different sections in
the best possible manner.
Governor Sparks feels a deep in
terest in this matter and earnestly
desires an exhibit worthy OF the
great State of Nevada, and from
personal standpoint l am strongly i'm
pressed with the importance OF this
Exposition, and will do everything
in my power, in season and out OF
season. to further the matter.
Your attention is directed thus
early from the fact that few months
later Commissioners will be in New
York, not only from out own state,
but foreign countries, and at that

on an equal footing, and OF course,
there will be pleasant, rivalry for
public confidence, and yet, by being
on the ground at an earlier date than
any other Commissioner, Nevada s
representative will be in position
to form a pleasant acquaintance and
give more definite and fuller informa-
ton to all comers, from the fact that
ample time will be at his disposal
while he IS alone in the field.
The Commissioner feels that it is
in the power of the Nevada Press tC
make this matter a positive success
and without their hearty cooperation
it will be failure.
This is the first time that an eX
sition has been attempted, and as Ne
'vada is the greatest mining region OF
:, the face of the earth, and man.
), thousand people, all over the world
6 have investments here, it is special,
:, important, l might even say of neces
sity, that this exhibit be a very cred
table one, and any comment whicl
you will be pleased to make will b
,. appreciated.
In order to be in the field at a
-. early date as possible, within tn
-, next few weeks l shall go to Ne'
- York for the purpose of opening hea
g. quarters for Nevada, where peopl
=, from this State will. at all times, b
;. heartily welcome.

known woman was found float
ing in the Truekee river here
yesterday. The body was
quickly recovered and an exam

GOOD COMPANY
PRESENTS "sALOME"

This being short play Of one act
4 was proceeded by curtain raiser
by Richard Hardin Davis where a
young lady gets up in her night
clothes and entertains three burglars
cntil the police arrive, for which she
.as thoughtfully telephoned.
It was nearly ten o'clock before the
curtain raiser got off the boards and
tae hair raiser came on.
tSalome is certainly about the livi-
Vest dramatic situation that has been
brought here for years.
King Herod, who has bats in his
helfry has step daughter who Is the
oelle of the town and all the young
suen regard her as the only available
candidate for Queen of the Carnival.
Presently John the Babtist pre-
epertetic preacher shows up. He Is
very scantily clothed and because OF
mis- limited means he has prompted
\ cistern. His preaching mainly con-
sists of saying mean things about the
private character of Herodious whose
past has not been just what it should
Oe.
How he managed to go about ac-
cusing the Queen of immortality and
disorderly conduct is not explained
out he seemed to be able to keep his
hammer going without any call down
from her relatives.
Salome falls in love with John in
spite of his tough clothes and the
TACT that he never brushed his hail
and makes very decided advances
John who has set out to lead a pious
life turns her down, refusing kiss
from her. The open love making tt
John SO discourages one OF her suit
ors that he runs several feet of stee
into his bowels and dies. This dom
seem to even attract the attention o
the young lady and the corpse lie
around promiscous for some time.
Then the King asks Salome to do
skirt dance and she declines. Sh
also refuses to drink with him an
treats him with various modes OF IN
difference. He finally swears to Civ
her anything he has if she will dane
and she makes him swear with bot
hands up.
She then demands the head of job
on a charger.
The King tries to renig, but she an
her mother hold him to his word an
although he tries to buy her off wit
all the jewelry in the kingdom, sh
stands pat and gets what she wants
She dances a while and the Kin
orders up the head. A soldier goe
down into the cistern and up come
the head on charger. s...
The girl loses her head in the b,
ginning of the play and he loses hi
in the end. A cloud comes over tn
moon just at the time she kisses tn
dead mans lips and the audience
