EYESToNES.

Most Genuine Specimens Found In the
Province of Astrakhan.
The collection of eyestones is a
dying industry. In New York the prin-
cipal sources Of supply are sailors who
touch the Baltic sea. and, as might be
imagined. the supply is precarious.
Eyestones are analogous in some re-
spects to beZoars. as they are a con-
erection found in the stomach of the
European crawfish. Most of the genu.
inc eyestones, crabs eyes, crabstones
or Lapilli cancrorum. are procured in
the province of Astrakhan, in Euro
pean Russia
There appears to be some confusion
regarding the nature of the eyestone.
for some authorities speak of it as n
concretion in the stomach Of certain
crab and others as of a peculiar shell
formation which is separated from the
crab at the time it sheds its shell.
The so called crabs eyes are found
fully developed at the end of summer
as the crabs begin to shed their shells.
1t is noted that these concretions are
absorbed into the stomach of the crab
during the shedding season and there
pulyerized and absorbed, the dissolved
calcareous substance being used. it is
supposed. for the formation of new
shell. When these calcareous shells
are not normally developed and alb
sorbed it is observed that the shedding
process is interrupted, and the crab
dies an early death.-American Drug

FRENCH COMEDY AT ROYAL.

An entire change of program went
into effect at the Theater Royal last
evening and was thoroughly enjoyed
by the large crowds that attended both
shows. Louis Pizarello, billed as a
famous French musician, coming di-
rect from a triumphant tour of the
-Orpheum Circuit, thoroughly justified
all the good things that have been said
Of him. Pizarello speaks only a few
words of English. but despite this
handicap. he succeeds in keeping the
audience laughing from tn time he
appears until he leaves The sta se.
Prot Martini, although a local pro-
duction, succeeds in mystifying the
audience with the latest European
magical illusions, and Bisbee may web
be proud Of so capable performer.
The pictures are above the Royal
standard, especially Easter Eggs, -
which is a beautiful hand colored film
of the trick variety. Miss Bonnie May
rendered an illustrated song entitled
pal of Mine" in a very pleasing
manner. All in all the program is one
of the best ever presented at this
popular place OF amusement.

COMMISSIONERS DECIDE
To BUILD COUNTY JAIL
Will Call Bond Election and May
Construct Court House
Also.

The county commissioners held a
meeting yesterday, a new Jail and a
new court house being the topic
taken up for general discussion. II
was the general opinion that the
county should construct these build
ings and that they should be put up
without any more delay than is abb
solutely necessary.
1t was decided to have the Jail sep
arate from the court house. The jail
will be built first and will be con-
structed of concrete or stone, with
steel cells. The clerk will be in
structed to advertise for plans and
specifications and when these are
adopted bids will be called for.
The court house and jail will ne
cessitate the expenditure of $4,000
and a bond election will be called for
that purpose The commissioners
have no doubt about the bonds car
rying, as the people have been COM
planning about the present Jail and
court house for some time. The es-
cape of several prisoners during the
past three or four months is argu-
ment enough for the construction of
a new jail 1t is proposed to have
accommodations for forty prisoners
in the county Jail.

THINKS HOUSES IN ELY
SHOULD Be NUMBERED
Citizen States City Is Large Enough
For Such An Improve
ment.

I'm always lost in Ely" said a
well-known citizen the other day.
He was asked what he meant by
always being lost and he replied that
he couldn't find his way because OF
the fact that the houses weren't num-
bered.
1T is hard enough to keep track
of the Streets" he said, land with the
houses not numbered it is difficult
proposition to find where people live.
Delivery men must have fine job
hunting people. You are generally
directed up such a street SO many
hundred yards, then turn to the right
or left a certain distance and the
first cottage with green trimmings Is
the place you are seeking.
YES, think the houses should be
numbered, but the numbering should
be done properly. A system should
be adopted and the plan carried out
on each thoroughfare."

BUILDING NOTES
FROM ELY CITY
WORK HAS BEEN STARTED ON
THE NUNNELLY BLOCK
OTHER STRUCTURES.

Construction has been started on
another building in Ely City-the
Nunnelly block, situated across from
the Townsite company's Office. The
and carpenters are now engaged in
putting up the supports for the first
story. The structure is to be rushed
to completion and will be used as a
store.
No time is being lost in construct
| ing the Thompson-Gunn building,
which promises to be one of the most
substantial and attractive structures
| in the city The brick wall on the
north side is completed as far as the
| first story. Fully twenty men are
employed on the structure at the
present time. Great piles of brick
and lumber have been placed in front
of the building and the work will be
| rushed until the structure is COM
pleted. The size of the building is
I55 by 100 feet. 1t is to be COM
posed of concrete, brick and steel.
Mr.. Klein, manager of Hotel Step
toe, stated yesterday that the furnl-
ture is expected here at any day. he
placed the order some time ago with
the understanding that it would be
forwarded without delay. The fur
niture for the annex will arrive first
as that structure is almost completed.
The plastering and finishing work on
the front of the big three-story hotel
still remains to be done. AS soon as
that work is finished the annex will
be ready for the furnishings. 1t will
be opened on the LIST or 18th of next
month, probably the latter date. The
opening of the elegant structure will
be quite an occasion, as it will be one
of the finest hotels in this section OF
Nevada. Work is to be rushed on
the hotel proper, the foundation of
which was constructed some time
ago. The steel and other building
materials have arrived and have been
placed on the ground.
Another structure that will proba-
bly, be finished about the time the no.
tel annex is opened to the public, will
be the $4,000 passenger depot. Car
penters are now engaged in finishing
the inside and the outside of the sec
ond story The clerks Offices will be
located upstairs.
A gang of men with scrapers is en-
gagged in leveling the various thor
oughfares. The street department is
carrying out plans for general i'm
provements in the roads.
The freight yards are almost con-
gested with building materials that
are arriving daily. Several teams are
engaged in hauling the freight from
the yards to the various structures
that are now in the course of con-
struction.
