MAJESTIC THEATRE MAY
NOT BE REMODELED

That the plans for turning the Ma
jestic into an apartment house have
been postponed for a time and pos
sibly changed entirely was made
known today when it was announced
that c. C. Martin had been appointed
manager of the theatre and was pre-
pairing to book several attractions for
the coming months.
Mrs. George S. Nixon, owner of the
building. spent several days in Reno
last week, comforting with NJ. D. Fair
child and others concerning the
plans. While here she would not state
definitely that the plans for MAX
ing an apartment house out of the
building would be carried out. She
denied that the Pantages vaudeville
circuit would take over the theatre
as had been reported, but intimated
that some other coast house might
send its shows here.
Martin, who succeeds ]. F. Butler
as manager of the house, will go to
San Francisco and conclude the ar
ngements.-Gazette.

"zA1A" AT THE AMERICAN
THEATRE TOMORROW NIGHT

The story of the immortal drama,
"Zaza," which has been added as a
photoplay by the Famous Players
Film company, with Pauline Freder-
ick, the foremost emotional actress
of the screen, in the title role, and
which is to appear on the Paramount
program at the American theatre to-
morrow night, is as follows:
Zaza is a popular singer in one of
the gayest music halls in Paris. She
leads a very tempestuous life and is
much sought after by the beaux of
the town. One night she meets Ber-
nard, a man about town, behind the
scenes and, after a frivolous firta-
ton, falls deely in love with him.
1t is not long before he establishes
her in an apartment, where they live
happily for several months.
Her infatuation for Bernard is the
only real and lasting emotion hat
Zaza has ever experienced and she
dedicates her whole crude nature to
the task of making him happy. 1t is
therefore a terrible blow to her when
she discovers that Bernard is mar
ried and has a little daughter. Stung
to the depths of her savage nature
by the duplicity of the only man she
ever really cared for, Zaza's first
thought is for revenge.
With fiendish accuracy she hits up
on the plan of going straight to the
wife of her betrayer and announcing
herself as his mistress as the one
best method of obtaining the ven
geance which she Graves. While still
in the heat of her passionate hatred
of Bernard, she sets out on her cruel
mission, but meets the little daugb-
ter before she has an opportunity of
denouncing her lover to the mother.
The sweet simplicity of the child,
her righteousness and her delightful
generosity so touch the grief-stricken
Zaza that she cannot find it in her
heart to crush the child under the
blackening weight of the scandal
which she knows would follow ner
through the rest of her life So it
happens that the daughter of Bernard
saves him from disgrace.
Totally disillusioned, Zaza now dis
misses her lover and returns to the
stage. She soon attains marvellous
popularity and becomes the idol OF
Paris. Hearing of her triumphs, Ber-
nard comes to renew his attention
to Zaza, and she, in the supreme
struggle of her life against the over
whelming love which she still has for
the man, finally conquers her own
emotions and sends him back to the
wife and child. who are still in total
ignorance of his double life.
Zaza, with Bernard forever dis
missed from her mind, devotes her
life to the drama in which she attains
the pinnacle of fame.

Will PURCHASE
HOMES FOR INDIANS

G. II. Asbury, for many years spe-
cial agent in charge of Indian agen-
cies and reservations in Nevada, but
now assigned to general supervision
work over all agencies and reserva-
ton in Colorado. New Mexico and
Utah, is in Reno again after an abb
sence of several months, and is busy
going over plans for the handling of
the two appropriations made by the
last Congress for purchasing homes
for the homeless Indians in Nevada,
with Col. L. A. Dorrington, assigned
as special agent for Nevada and some
of the other coast states, says the Ga
zette.
Since leaving Reno several months
ago Mr.. Asbury has been dividing his
time between different agencies and
reservations. He was stationed for a
time on the Shoshone reservation in
Wyoming and also had charge of a
reservation in Utah for a short pe-
riod.
Col. Dorrington, who succeeded Mr..
Asbury here, has as yet no fixed
headquarters, but spends most of his
time in the Reno office.
The last Congress appropriated
$4,000 for the benefit of the Washoe
Indians in Nevada and 5000 for the
benefit of the members of other tribes
who have not been assigned to reser-
yations. The idea of the govrnment
was to use the money in purchasing
home sites for these Indians and Lo-
renzo d. Creel, formerly superintend-
ent of the Pyramid Lake reservation.
has been named as a special super
visor to handle the details of the pur-
chase of the lands. He will work in
conjunction with Col Dorrington. Mr..
Asbury was detailed by the govern
ment to go over the situation in Ne
yada. Just what policy relative to the
expenditure of the money appropri-
ated will be adopted has not been de-
cided.
Mr.. Asbury expects to complete his
work here within the next few days
and then will take up work in another
part of the West

While roaming the beach at Popham
Sunday F. H. Hodgkins. mate Of the Vir-
ginia, picked up a whiskey bottle com
Pletely covered with barnacles which n,, had
Encrusted with the white shells, the
bottle presents much the appearance OF
bouquet of flowers. 1t Is on exhibition IN
the window of the business Office Of the
Times. The bottle has evidently been in
the sea long time. It has in the neck
rubber stopper which kept all water
from the inside OF the bottle. 1t was
thus used as buoy for lobster pot lines
by some fisherman. 1t is quite a curiosi-
ty. One Bath man seeing 1t remarked that
it showed how even barnacles make iof
whiskey bottles. Another citizen replied
that it also showed what becomes OF the
barnacles when they get too close to
whiskey.-Bath Times.
Doesn't it also pretty conclusively
show that whatever comes in close
contact with whiskey becomes barn
acles? The streets of some cities are
barnacled by booze.
