Mr.. W. r. Lindsay returned this
morning from his newly discovered
marble quarry in Burbank Canyon,
north of Smith Valley. He brought
specimens of the stone.
The samples are of mottled mar
bic of wonderful beauty. 1t is far
superior in every way to any Yer
mont marble ever quarried, and ought
to be valuable. 1t takes a splendid
polish and will stand for centuries
in all kinds of weather There is
a large deposit of this marble and MI
Lindsey has given the Davis Bros. OF
YeringtOn, bond on the property for
$4,000 for one year, and the first pay
ment has been made. Mir. Lindsey is
also to have royalty of % per cent
on all sales of marble taken from the
quarry. 1t will not be a great while
before Il railroad will pass within
about four miles Of this quarry, and
then the marble can be shipped. 1t is
fine material for headstones, pillars
and WainscOting for large buildings
and ought to find ready sale in San

PURIFYING THE RING

There is a lot of talk about purify
ing the prize ring. 1t certainly needs
lot Of fixing. Some years ago the
Carson Atheletic Club attempted to
eliminate one OF the rotten spots in
the sports where a beaten man loses
on a foul. This enables a rascal to
throw a fight and swindle the betters
The Carson Club made a rule by
which a fighter making q palpable
foul lost half his end of the purse
and the fight went on. Ii he fouled
again he forfeited the remaining half
and the fight went on.
This rule, had it, been enforced
would have made muCn more salts

fight. Nelson would have never
fouled his opponant under that rule.
Put that rule under Nelson's nose
before he signs with Cans for the
next fight and if he don't sign no
one will go to see him fight. With
fighters tied down uy that rule there
will be an end Of the foul fake busi-

From private correspondence from
Montreal, Canada, it is learned that
John McKane, we'll known through
out Nevada, and at one time one OF
Schwab's right-hand men, has cleaned
up S5,0O0,000 at Cobalt, Canadd's
great silver camp, and has left for
England, where he intends making
his permanent residence. Mr. Nc
Kane, according to the letter, some
time ago, bought piece of property
FOR $4,000; later sold it for 100000;
then turned around and took up an
other 100000. This he let go at
the astonishing figure of $5,OOO,O00,
which sum represents his clear profits
from several years hard labor at the
mines. In England he has purchased
fine estate on the Tyne for 1921, 900

Judging from the reports that com"

presented here by the Ma.Hattan

duction far above the average in
merit, played by first class people.
In fact, arrangements had been made

strike there badly upset the theatrical
business, and the managers OF The

selected for the roles they are to fill.
One of the newest of the pieces on
the road, there is nothing hackneyed
about the play. Music, songs, seen
cry and costumes are entirely new.
The company carries its own stage
settings and scenery, and for that
reason it is able to put the play on in
thoroughly metropolitan style, giving
| such a performance as one ordinarily
| has to go to San Francisco to see.
The managers feel fortunate in haV'
