type, and in this subject are shown
a succession of southern California
views that are decidedly pictures

old Missions. The orphan girl of

cheating at cards and would have
suffered lynching had it not been

BUY THE HOIST
AT THE BOSTON
FOR WINGF|ELD
RUMORED CONSOLIDATION BIZ
TWEEN BOSTON AND OTHER
PROPERTIES.

This morning a force of men will
be employed in dismatntling the
fifty horse power steam hoist at
the Boston-Tonopah property, north
of town, and when the machinery
is prepared for shipment it will be
sent to Buckhorn and be erected
on the property recently purchased
by George Wingfeld
Fred j. Siebert, who represents
Wingfield in his mining transac-
tons, came over from Goldfeld
last evening and visited the Bos-
ton in company with James F.
McCambridge. An inspection was
made of the hoist, a small engine
for operating the air compressor,
and all appurtenances that go to-
ward rigging up a first class hoist
ing outfit. The machinery is in
excellent condition and the sale was
made. Mr. Siebert will leave this
morning. and the work of dismant-
ling will be carried out under
the supervision of Mr.. Mccain
bridge.
This does not mean the aban-
donment of the Boston, for to the
contrary it can be taken as an in
dication of an early resumption of
operations. Should the plant be
started again, the hosting would
be done by electric power, which
can now be secured cheaper than
when the steam hoist was install
led. The cost of wood and water
have been proven to be far in ex-
cess than that of the cost of cleo
tricity. 1t has been rumored that
a consolidation may soon take place
between the Boston and the sur
rounding companies, and should
this prove to be true, operations
may be resumed within a short
time with hosting done by modern
machinery

The Reno Journal of a late date
had the following to say of Merely
Mary Ann
I'm Merely Mary Ann which is
filling the Grand theater every
night, Miss Virginia Thornton has
the best vehicle since her arrival
in the city for the display of her
remarkable ability as an emotional
actress.
When the original production of
Zangwill's great play was given to
a Broadway audience, Miss Eleanor
Robson, whose name is known the
country over, played the title role
And the one who has seen Miss
Robson in the part, and who goes
to the Grand and sees the play
there, is naturally in a frame OF
mind to measure Miss Thorntons
presentation of the part by the stan
dard of Miss Robson's work in New
York.
Be it said that the one who has
seen both ladies in the role will
yield to Miss Thornton the great
est credit she has achieved at the
Grand. When the pathos in the
part comes to the fore, she has
three-fourths of her hearers with
moisture in their eyes. Public COM
