THE CLIMAX"
TUESDAY EVENING

"'The Climax will be seen at the
Nixon opera house ON Tuesday, May
Cd. 1t is one of the most remarkable
dramas of modern times. It contains
all the essentials of success. First, it
has tremendous plot, which is worked
out with admirable power. Second, it
has great heart interest; and third, it
has situations which for intensity
have never been surpassed. The play
is by Edward Locke, dramatist, who
has seized upon the salient points in
modern life and has transformed them
to the stage with fidelity to nature.
The result is play that appeals to
people of all classes in life. 1t has
been one of the most successful plays
on the road this season and has created
keen interest wherever it has been pro-
duced The company Offering "The
Climax' is carefully selected one, and
the United Play company, which is
directing the route of this organiza-
tion, has spared no expense in making
this superb production. The com
pany carries all scenery and special
properties.

new PLANT FOR
WATER & LIGHT co.

For the past year or more the Water
& Light company has been devising
plans to secure more water and light
for Winnemucca, necessitated by the
towns rapid growth and the installa-
tion of sewer system. Several ex'
perts have visited the town at differ
ent times, looking over the possibili-
ties for an increased water supply,
making their reports to the directors
of the company.
At a meeting Of the board of direct
ors, held in San Francisco recently,
which was attended by Edward Rein
hart, after considering the reports re-
ferred to, it was decided to build a
new and sufficiently large plant to fur
nish an abundant supply of both water
and light
During the present week s. Naph-
taly, a San Francisco electrical engi-
neer who stands at the head of his pro-
fession, visited Winnemucca, and, in
company with Supt. Akin of the Water
& Light company, looked over the
town for a site for the new plant and
arranged other details.
Edward Reinhart is authority for
the statement that work on the new
plant will be commenced within the
next few DAYS

JOSE GREETED BY
LARGE AUDIENCE

Another record breaking audience
congregated at the Nixon opera house
last evening to greet Dick Jose and his
company in "Silyer Threads The
plot of the play, in some respects, is
similar to Hazel Kirke,'' while many
of the character would be recognized
as belonging to the school of the "Old
Homestead -
The drama depicts New England
life and was presented by an unusually
strong and evenly balanced company.
Miss Louise Kent, who took the part
of Ruth Laurie, in addition to being
handsome lady, is an actress of great
ability, sustaining the difficult part in
an admirable manner.
The play, however, is a secondary
consideration, being only intended as
. filler-in for Jose's singing and
this was the principal reason for the
large attendance. But the vast audi
ence suffered a keen disappointment.
Dick is the same jolly good fellow of
old, but, like many another who has
been in the game too long, he "can It

FRANK STALL RE-
Turns TO NATIONAL

Frank Stall, of the firm of Stall
Bros. former owners of the great
lease on the National mine, returned to
Winnemucca yesterday afternoon from
San Francisco. AS will be remember
ed, some months ago both brothers
were seriously injured in the shaft of
the mine by cavein, from the eff
fects of which they have not yet fully
recovered. Frank is able to walk with
the aid of cane and will fully recov-
er in the course of time. George, how
ever, is not so well off While he
also is able to walk with the aid of a
cane, one leg has been left shorter
than the other
The Stalls are still the principal
owners in the First National, ConsoIi-
dated and other valuable properties at
National, as well as about $500 tons of
rich ore still on the dumps of the old
lease. Frank Stall will leave for Ma
tional within the next few days to look
after the firm IS interests.
To Silver State representative this
morning, Mr.. Stall stated that a large
amount of work on the properties men
toned was contemplated this year.

NEVADA SHFFPMFN
PAY THE FIDDLER

The total wool clip for the state of
Nevada this year is estimated at
about 100000 pounds, as against
the same amount for last season. The
clip marketed in Humboldt county is
figured at approximately 100000
pounds, or about onet third the entire
product for the state.
Prices in Humboldt county this year
have ranged from lie for few of the
poorer clips to 13Mc for the best Last
year from 141a to 151ac was the pre-
vailing market.
While nearly every firm of wool
merchants in the country has had rep
resentatives in the local field, all of
whom did some business, as has been
the case for the past several years,
Staunton Bros. bought the bulk of
the clip, their purchases in eastern Ne
vada being estimated at 100000
pounds.
In passing, it might be well for Ne
vada woolgrowers to inquire into the
causes that led up to the present de-
preston in the market and what it has
cost them. It is generally conceded
that the low market was caused by
Democratic and Insurgent Republican
tariff agitation and the converting of
an extra session of congress. For these
causes Nevada sheepmen have this
year, as compared with last season,
paid cents a pound on their aggre-
gate clip, or a total of $4,000, while
Humboldt county alone has been call
ed upon for $4,000.
However, the depression began two
years ago, when the market ruled
around Is cents. Taking that figure as
basis, Democratic tariff agitation has
cost Nevada sheepmen, in round fig
ures, $350,000 and Humboldt county
$150,000.
Taking these facts into considera-
ton, it is little wonder that the voters
last fall returned Nixon to the SEN
ate and sent Roberts to the lower
house.
