MAIL ORDER MEN

1t is stated that the large cata-
log houses experienced the shrinkage
in business the past year amounting
to $10,000,000. This was mainly
due to the activity and systematic eff
forts put forth by the retail men.
This is gratifying to the retail trade
and indicates one of the most effec-
tive ways of combating the cata-
log houses and keeping the trade at
home. If the retail merchants would
realize more than some of them do
that what the catalog is to the mail
order houses, that the home papers
are to the local merchants, the bust
ness of the mail order houses would
show a still further decline to the
great gain of the home trade and
the prosperity of the home town.
Business firms have tried all kinds
of advertising, but experience proves
that the most profitable is attractive
and liberal advertising in the local
papers.

AUDIENCE WELL
PLEASED LAST
EVE AT PAVILION

A woman's wit, wiles and clever
ness working against one of the
money kings of the world who prac-
tically controls the national govern
ment and who has always gratified
his every wish, was demonstrated
last evening at the Pavilion theater
when Henry B. Harris presented the
dramatization of the famous novel,
1.-THE Lion and the Mouse" The
play was well acted and was appreci-
ated by the audience. The part of
John Burkett Ryder, the master Of
finance, was ably portrayed by Paul
Everton and the audience had the
pleasure of witnessing some, clever
acting Shirley Rossmore, to whom
Ryder eventually acknowledges de-
feat, when off the stage is known as
Edna Archer Crawford, and is a
clever actress, her work being that
of an accomplished artist. The piece

out, and also has the usual love af-
fair.
At the beginning of the perform
ance part of the effect was lost on
the audience by the arrival of a
number of people who appear to
have but one thought, and that is to
display some new gown or the latest
creation in hat wear They seem tc
think nothing of the discomforts Of
those who arrive in time to see the
curtain rise, but come late so as tt
give all chance to witness their ar
rival. In most theaters no one is
allowed to take their seat during al
act, and have to wait until the in

v. B. O'CONNELL
IS in The TOLLS
At GOLDFIELD

w. B. O'Connell of this city, and |
who went to Goldfield several days
ago on the advice of the justice court |
here, which asked him to leave for
six months, is the guest of Sheriff
Bradley in the southern city. Evil
IDENTITY O'Connell's love for the booze
route was the cause of his undoing
and he now stands chance of going
on the water wagon" for some
months. The Tuesday morning
Goldfield Tribune has the following
to say about O'Connell's misfortune:
"An old offender, w. B. O'Connell,
was taken to cell by Under Sheriff
Mike Catalan. O'Connell has served
eight or ten months in this county,
and is said to have a six months
'fioater' over his head in Tonopah.
He went to the home of Mrs. Charles
Flett, $50 Columbia, Sunday night,
and not obtaining entrance through
the door, promptly smashed win
dow through which he crawled. His
hands were severely cut during the
operation, and the county physician
was compelled to treat him twice for
fear he would blead to death. Once
inside of the Flett house he is said
to have broken the furniture, cursed
every one far and near, and nearly
upset lighted lamp, He will prob
ably live at the county's expense for
some months"
