THE ARCHITECT HERE.
A Modern and Up-to-date
Department Store to be

Messrs ]. H. Anderson & Co., ex-
pect to begin the erection of their
magnificent three-story Department
house as soon as possible. AS stated

chase of the three lots on Main, be-
tween EIGHTH and Ninth, Messrs
Anderson & Co. will put up a build
ing that will be an ornament to Main
Street. 1t was said that it would
require years time to complete
the building.
Plans have not yet oeen decided
upon, but a prominent architect of
Nashville, has been in the city this
week taking the clay of the land''
before beginning his drawings. He
has caste blanche to make the build
ing beauty as to architecture and
at the same time include every con-
venience necessary to make the in
terror modern and attractive.
This is only one of the buildings
to go up in Hopkinsvilla this year
and 1907 will be as notable, almost
as 1906. The business of j. H. An
derson & Co. has grown so rapidly
in the past decade that, though nov
occupying three store rooms in thu
Trice block, the floor space is entirly
inadequate for the transaction Of
the business of the firm.

COLONEL WILLIAM
BILL BREWER

Col William Bill Brewer Is back
at his old job. saving souls In ia,

in New York. and Is doing more cf-
fectIve work than ever. for. after two
years or more among the ungodly OF
GOldfield. he is in position now ia
tell how II feels He has double
advantage can pose as a "hor-
rible example" and can also tell OF
the unhappiness of being a follower
of Mammon from personal expert
ence.
The Salvation Army may be mill
tant, but 1t is also merciful. Deser-
tion from the regular army in time
of war is punishable by death, but
the Salvation Army Furnishes merely
by reduction in rank Perhaps ii
considers that the moral death OF
the delinquent, while merely temper
AIRY, is yet sufficient. A recent Issue
of the War Cry says:
Our readers will be glad to learn
that eX-Lieutenant Colonel Brewer
has been re-accepted for service, with
the rank of major. The pleasure will
be intensified by the demonstration
our old comrade has given of his
sincere and deep regret for the mis-
taken step he took in relinquishing
his God-honOred post and the results
that have followed, and also his de-
termination to atone for it with a life
of unreserved devotion to the flag
and his ambition to be of any service
he can in any position to which he
may be appointed in any country des-
ignated.
Hallelujah!
Whatever else the homeopathic
may have done, Col. William Bill
Brewer can thank it for having
turned his footsteps back to the
paths of righteousness.
1t is awful to contemplate the pos
sible state of Williams soul if, in
stead of slumping below the 81
mark, Goldfield Con. had scared to
$50, and the other stocks of the
southern camp had kited with it.

tion.-Reno Reveille.

SNOW STORM
Was SEVERE

There was fierce snow storm last
night for a little while, and all the
old familiar tracks in the city and
on the hills We're obliterated 1t was
lovely excuse for those gentlemen
who stayed out late, for they lost the
road home. Somebody had stolen the
road. The ground was slippery, and
it was an easy matter to fall down
and whack your precious back and
send an ode heavenward, which
wouldn't pass muster through our
prudiSh mails.
1t was just sixteen years ago last
night that the first snow fell for the
hardest winter that we have ever ex-
perienced in Nevada. The Indians
might have had worse ones, but no
white man in the State can recall one
so bad. There were over $1,000, 900
worth of cattle and sheep persisted in
the State, and there were all kinds of
hardships experienced.

only S21.05 in the bank. Burton was
captured in San Francisco and takca
back TO Goldfield. hut there was no
law at that time in this State to fit
the crime. Burton had previous
penitentiary record. and while in
prison he succeeded in getting Si5,-
900 out of the superintendent to in
vest in mythical mine in Colorado.
He had some reputation as a gun
lighter. Buck, his slayer, is a small
man of about fifty years of age, and
halls from Texas. He is usually a
quiet man, but seems to be different
when aroused.
1t was in the Deer Island Reform
atory in Boston that Burton turned
the trick on the superintendent, in
ducing him with his oily tongue to
invest $4,000 in the mythical mine
in Colorado, and it is said that he
caught other officials of the institu-
ton. He told them of untold wealth
that was to be had in the lands of
Dumont, Colorado, and his fairy
tales soon won their confidence and
| their money. His next victim was
Charles F. Berry of Dorchester. Mass
Berry embezzled about $4,000
most of which belonged to the wild
ows and orphans of Dorchester, and
the bulk of the money found its way
to Burton and his wildcat promo
| ton schemes. There are a dozen
Bostonians who long have mourned
in the neighborhood of 100000.
which they gave to Burton.
The confidence man got into a
brawl in Denver and was badly beat
en- up. Next day there was a wreck
on the New York Central, and Bur-
ton was in the train that followed
behind. He put in claim for $500
and offered as testimony of his in
Juries the bruises he had received in
the brawl in Denver. He got the
money, but was afterwards nailed
and sent to the reformatory for two
years, and while in the institution he
got in his fine work.
He swelled it for a time in Gold
field and there were many who flock
ed to his bank, not knowing his ca
reer. j. B. Young was president of
the bank, and Boal was cashier. The
wrecking of the bank was one of the
most barefaced pieces of thievery
ever ksown in the west, and was in
a small way conducted on the lines
of Wrecker Walsh of Chicago. Young
and Burton were arrested in San
Francisco and threats of lynching
them were heard in Goldfield. They
were landed there safely, however,
by Sheriff Bradley, and stood trial.
Their guilt was plain enough, but the
law at that time did not cover their
offense. and smart lawyer did the
rest.
Burton's record was known in
Rawhide, and he had no sooner land
ed there than the citizens got on to
him and committee waited upon
him and requested him to take the
stage on the following morning,
which he did Buck wrote up the
incident. and while he said in the
Rawhide Rustler that the notorious
coincidence man and bank wrecker
was not worth the space, he ladled
the hot stuff into him with artistic
style. 1t was scathing article, and
Burton could not have remained in
Nina, in all probability, had he not
threatened to make it warm for the

A Printed Play Based Upon the
Acadian Expulsion

A play that is based upon either Sec
tartan or partisan controversy does
not recommend itself for the adoption
by the powers that control the Ameri-
can stage. and for that reason alone
1t is reasonable to infer that Walter S.
Kerr's five-act drama, The Acadian
Proscript," was written for the library
instead Of the theater.
AS its title implies. the work treats
of the Acadian expulsion, when two
irreconcilable religious creeds clashed
over the peaceful and simple settlers
end of the story there is rancorous big
tion Illuminating that theme.
The story of the play is as simple
the life of the people it depicts. and
it's text is beautifully written. It's lit
erary and historical worth alone entitle
II to a place in any well-ordered
library. But in some of the dramatic
essentials 1t is weak. Its blank verse
is too abundant for patient acceptance
by the average latter-day theater- goer,
who demands that the development and
unraveling of the plot be done as much
through action as through words. Its
climaxes, too. lack the dramatic power
to provoke the curtain calls" by which
a stage manager measures the worth
of any play
Mr.. Kerr has evidently given deep
study to his subject and painstaking
care to the construction of his play.
