lDORA PLAYS TO
RECORD BREAKING
HOUSES SUNDAY
NEW VAUDEVILLE ACTS MAKE
BIG HIT AND ORCHESTRA
PLEASE EVERYBODY.

The Idora theater played to rec
ord-breaking houses last night. The
program was changed completely,
two new vaudeville stunts being on
the boards The team of Dunbars
was very good and the imitation
of the language conversed in by
dogs and cats when the fur flies
was particularly good, Their act is
entitled "The Father and the Girl
at the Geological Gardens
The playing of the orchestra was
particularly well received last night
and many friends of the new lead
er were in the house. The pic
lures were all clear and of the very
best.
In speaking of the team of Ne
lusco and Levina, who made their
first appearance at last nights show,
an exchange has the following to
say:
"Nelusco and Levina, the head
liners Of the Sunday night show
at the Isis theater, were held over
to make the bill for last night and
tonight.
''They bill themselves as comedy
magicians and on the comedy emo
of that same billing they are 6
mighty big hit. OF course, they
pull some very clever legerdemair
tricks, but it is on their comedy
work that they made themselves
so popular Sunday night. 1t il
hard to name any particular tricl
that is responsible for them, bu
all through their act some new 1ok'
or some well-turned little piece o
business keeps the crowd in goo
humor. If you overlook their act
you are overlooking a good chanc
to laugh and enjoy yourself, and j
this vale of tears, that same
always mighty bad bet

San FRANCISCO
PAPER PAYS HIGH
TRIBUTE TO TALENT
MUSICAL COMPANY WILL AP-
PEAR FOR FIRST TIME IN
TONOPAH.

The San Francisco Bulletin, in
speaking of the Jacoby company,
which will make its first appear
ance in this city tonight at the
Butler theater, has the following:
when Paradise was fading from
the sky the last of the angels
lettering near the earth to get one
more glimpse before ascending to
ed a chord on the golden harp and
brought forth sweet music that
startled the entire world, and as the
last faint notes faded away the
wind took up the glad refrain and
sent in murmuring through forest
and dell, proclamining the glad
tidings that new world had sprung
into existence, and so it is when
you sit and listen to the yiolinist,
Miss Jacoby, now playing at the
Empress.
Startling, enchanting and be-
witching she holds her audience un-
der a hypnotic spell and as the
| last notes Cavalier Rusticanna lin
gers, the silence is broken by loud
| and prolonged applause. In the his
| tory of the new Empress, no ono
has been able to enthuse the audi
ences as the Jacobys. From the
time they come on the stage until
the curtain is lowered on their
grand musical act, everyone's at
tention is riveted on them.

The baseball game yesterday be
tween the married mer and the

to witness the sport, though the aft

of rooters, 1t looked bad for the
married men at the beginning of
the game, as the singles in their

often on the sphere. with the re-

close. The "henpecked," however,
rallied on realizing what would be
in store for them if they returned

following innings tied the score.
The game was in the nature of
a tryout and proved to the fans
that Tonopah has excellent material
TO pick from to make up the nine
that will represent the town this
season. Prout, for the singles,
pitched excellent ball, and Spen-
Ger, for the married, did remark
ably well, considering that he in
jured his hand just before the
game started and had to rely upon
a straight ball.
Hunter, at short, proved that he
has not lost any Of his old-timt
speed and played the same ever
game that he always does, fielding
and batting in excellent form.
"Pud" Hatton, Perry, McDonnel
and Emminger also showed to gooC
advantage n the infield. In tn,

the star, making two good catches
and batting with a good eye. vii

Hall, (better known as Bud'') who
resides on the ranch north of Trot-

cident which cost him toe,
though the peculiarity of the ac-
cident lies in the tact that the Sc
cond toe of his right foot was COM
pletely shot off, with shot gun,
without injuring any other portion
of the foot.
Mr.. Hall was standing erect
with the muzzle of the gun resting
on his toes, when his little son,
who was clinglng to his pant
sleeve, in some unaccountable
manner pulled the trigger, send
ing the contents Of the barrel
through his shoe. with the above
result.
Mr.. Hall had a hammerless gun,
and before the shot was fired felt
confident that he had put the
safety lock on the trigger, but, his
sons demonstration" furnished
conclusive evidence of his mis-
taken idea, which he learned after
it IVES too late.
Accompanied by his wife and
two little sens Mr.. Hall arrived in

doctor was summoned to dress
the wound, and at this writing
