RUMORS AGAIN REVIVED

There is rumor in railroad circles
that the Southern Pacific are contem-
plating some radical changes in the
location Of their division points and
shops, and the story goes something
like this: It is almost certainty
now that the Southern Pacific win
build q road south from Portland to
Los Angeles, crossing the main line
at the town of Fernley, 80 miles east
o. Sparks. The main division point
of the whole system will be at eFrn-
Ivy, and tn emain line shops that are
now located at Sparks, will be moved
to that place. That would mean that
the division points along the whole
line would have to be moved in or
der that a certain distance might be
maintained between the different
points, and the division point at I'M
lay would be moved to Winnemucca,
the division point at Carlin moved to
Elko.-Free Press.

NIXON FRIDAY EVENING

One of the most thrilling incidents
depicted in the nine-reel motion pic
ture of "Les Miserables,' to be ex-
hibited at the Nixon opera house
Friday, April oath, is the realistic re-
production of the Revolution of 1882,
when the streets of Paris were barri-
caded and the insurgents fought des-
pertely against the states troops.
During one of these encounters Val
jean saves the life of Inspector Jaw
ert, his lifelong enemy, and helps
him make his escape from the revolu-
tionists. When the military has tax
en- the barricades by storm, Vatican
rescues Marius, revolutionists, and
makes his sensational escape through
the sewers of Paris, carrying wounded
Marius ON his back.
One show only, starting at S:l5 p.
m. Judging from the interest aroused
it will be well to come early to secure
good seat. Adults, 35e; children 25c

COMPANY BUYS
FAMOUS SOAP Mine

A. J. Mcdaniel reports that the
Elko county soap mine, upon which he
had an option, has been disposed of to
San Francisco capitalists, at q good
figure. The proposition will this week
be incorporated for $250,00O, under
the name of Nevada Natural Pro-
duets company.
For many years it had been known
that this deposit produced q fine quail
ity of toilet soap, it having been
used once fer year on all Pullmna
cars. However, so great a quantity
was wasted by porters selling the
soap for souvenirs of Nevada that the
company declined to renew the con-
tract at its expiration.
From an analysis of the product,
made by the new owners, it has been
found that it can be utilized for many
purposes in addition to toilet soap.
One that will make it popular among
the ladies is fine face cream, said
to excel anything at present on the
market. It is also said to contain
medicinal qualities and may be used
as the basic ingredient for many rem
edies
Mr.. Mcdaniel received a substan-
tial cash payment for the property
and a block of the stock. AS it will
be close corporation, with none of
tn estock on the market, it is hard to
estimate what the securities of the
company may be worth.

m.-Admiral Fletcher, commanding
the Gulf fleet, was this morning or
dered by President Wilson to seize

order to prevent a large shipment of
ammunition and field guns for Huerta

at Washington yet what Fletcher has
done.
The senate has been engaged all

LovETT PUT ON NEW
YORK CENTRAL BOARD

The election of R. s. Lovett to the
board of the New York Central gives
the Union Pacific a direct representa-
tive of its $17,s57 900 Central stock
for the first time since the death Of
Il. H. Hartman. Judge Lovett, be-
ing a director of the Baltimore and
Ohio, in which the Union Pacific had
q much larger interest, did not seek
the place on the Central board for
himself or for any representative.
Now the Union Pacific, barring le-
gal opposition, has undertaken to dis
pose of the Baltimore and Ohio stock,
and Lovett has already retired from
the Baltimore and Ohio board. His
election to the Central may be taken
to indicate that the Union Pacific di-
reetors contemplate retaining that
eompany's investment in the New
York Central indefinitely. 1t cost
Union Pacific $7,000,000 more than
its present market value. Lovett may
think it needs looking Alters. f.

CHAPTER XVII.

AS the sun. after a passing storm,
comes forth all the more gloriously so
the JOY of their new-found friendship
changed the world for Bud and Ora
cia. The rainbow that glowed against
the retreating clouds held forth more
than a promise of sunshine for them.
and they conversed only OF pleasant
things as they rode on up the trail.
The dangers that still lay between
them and the border seemed very re-
mote now, and neither gave them a
thought. There was no one in all the
wide world but just these two, this
man and woman who had found them
selves.
Twenty miles ahead lay the northern
pass, and from there II was ten more
to Gadsden, but they spoke neither Of
the pass nor Of Gadsden nor Of who
would be awaiting them there. Their
talk was like that OF children. incon-
sequential and happy. They told OF
the times when they had seen each
other. and what they had thought; of
the days of their childhood. before
they had met at Fortuna; Of hopes
and fears and thwarted ambitions and
all the young dreams of life.
Bud told of his battle-scarred father
and their ranch in Arizona; Of his
mother and horse-breaking brothers.
and his wanderings through the West;
Gracia Of her mother, with nothing Of
her father, and how she had flirted in
order to be sent to school where she
could gaze upon the outstanding Amer
leans. Only Bud thought of the trail
and scanned the horizon for rebels,
but he seemed more to seek her eyes
than to watch for enemies and death.
They rode on until the sun sank low
and strange tracks struck their trail
horses were shod. and more tracks OF
mounted men came in beyond. He
turned sharply toward the west and
followed a rocky ledge to the hills,
without leaving a footprint to mark
the way Of their retreat.
Those hoof prints brought Bud back
from the land OF dreams in which
he had been wandering to a realiza-
ton OF the dangers that lurked about
them. But a little way ahead was the
pass they must cross, and he sud
denly realized that they could not
safely do SO in the broad light of
day. He must not take such chances
of losing his new found happiness.
