As matter Of fact, the Nevada Con-

of about 81 per share from its copper out

but its treasury is hardly in shape to war

sale Of certain treasury assets and Dor
rowing money against the time when final
payment on these sales is to be made.

REASONS FOR ADVANCE
IN PRICE OF WHITE METAL

Another sharp rise in London quotations
for silver Yesterday was followed by an
advance of similar proportions in New
York Silver is higher now in both cen
ters than at any time IN more than eight
months and within a small fraction of the
average price Cor 1908, sa Us the Boston
Financial News.
The advance in silver Is attributed to
heavy exports of the metal to Europe for
account OF China and also to direct ship
ments TO the Orient. China has been a
heavy purchaser Of cotton manufactured
goods, nd as well as q heavy exporter
of various commodities TO this country.
and much of the silver sent to China is
for payment of exports to the United
States. Leading silver interests report
the demand for silver from China to be
genuine. but they are non-cOmmittal in
regard to Indian silver situation.

seen at Proctor's Theatre last night,
when Claude Gillingwater, aided by his

The program given at the Lyric Thea

as a criterion, the surprises were any

Tenants received about the same
amount of consideration. But when
Miss Patterson and the team composed
of James Casey and Maggie LIE Clair
had one their turn they had the audi
ence figuratively, as well as literally, at
their feet.
In addition to a fine stage appearance,
Miss Patterson is possessed of a voice
that is well adapted to her repertoire of
songs, and her work compares favor
ably with that of the best performers in
her particular line that have peer i n

by Casey and LIE Clair, although some-
what o~verdrawn, was in the main effec-

audiences. The production proved to
be a much saner depletion of the plains
mans life than is usually seen in the
popular-priced theatres. 1t deals most

and his daughter. Not once during the
entire action il the sound Of a Western
Smoke machine" heard. although all
the characters carry guns to give 1t
the favor of the wild West.
As Texas Jack, a man of the plains,
whose kind heart makes him a friend
to all, Frederick Eckhard gives a capt.
tai representation. william H. Muir
dock is also a competent member Of
the cast, and Miss Bonnie Marie gives
an amusing account Of herself.
