LOCAL TALENT SCORES HIT IN PRESERVATION
 OF ''OLD HOMESTEAD"
[From Thursday,. paily MinerI

''The Old Homestead" was pre- sented by local talent to a crowded house last night at the Elk's theatre. The auditors many times showed their appreciation of the efforts of the com pany by loud applause. l. Douglas May, in the leading role of "Uncle Josh" was splendid, and was well sup ported by the entire cast.
 Special praise is due Frank Hutch inson who took the part of "Cy Prim". His portrayal of the role provoked much merriment. All members of the company are to be highly compliment ed for their fine work. Many of them made their first bow to the public in the play. It is understood that it was a financial success and the ball club under whose auspices it was given, will realize a good round sum in con sequence.

GOLCONDA MANAGER
 IS BACK ON JOB

General Manager John D. Wanvig of the Golconda mine and family, who have been on the coast during the summer, returned to the property a few days ago. He is much pleased by the great showing of ore opened up in the mine during the past few months.
 On the 1000 foot level there has been exposed one of the finest ore bodies ever opened in the property. It is developments on the scale of the Golconda that is bringing Mohave county to the front, because it is well known that there are many other properties just as good as it at equal depth.
 Since taking charge of the mine MT. Wanvig has done an immense amount of development work and has secured better results than obtained in any other property in the county.

LUCKY BOY ID START
 SINKING IN FEW DAYS

The Lucky Boy will resume in few days, probably not later than OctO- Der l, according to Manager K. A. Watson.
 The shaft is down 365 feet and con- tains 200 feet of water. It came in from a ledge that was cut at that point. The plan is to sink to what is considered the permanent water level and then crosscut for the main ledge, or drift as the case may be.
 Two strong parallel ledges run through the group. The larger one is also the main ledge of the Telluride and a cross ledge of good size comes in from the Black Eagle of the Tom Reed.
 Of the two running parallel the one dips to the south and the larger to the north, so that Mir. Wat son expects them to join at some in definite, though not very great, depth. One of the lodges comes in directly from the Carter.
 Walter Wilson, formerly foreman, will again fill that position.

VALENTINE INDIANS
 ARE WHITEWASHED
From Tuesd4y's Daily MinerI

The Valentine Indians last Sunday went down to defeat before the King man Koyotes, the score being to O. The game consumed only hour and 50 minutes, the fastest time this sea- son. Up to the fourth inning not a hit was made off of either pitcher and for a while it looked like a pitchers battle, although the local bunch had collected runs on misplays and good base running.
 The Indian boys played good ball, but the result of the game was never in doubt as the local pitcher was only in hot water once or twice and then the boys from the government institu- tion could not touch him. The score:

Republicans Have Been Get ting Advantage in Politi- cal Publicity During
 Recent Weeks
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington. January 2.-(Special.) lon account of the fact that it is generally ad- mitted that MT. Wilson win be the nomi- nee of the St. Louis convention unless he does the almost mpossibe-that is, re- nounce like Caesar, the crown-the repub- light have had all the best of current publicity.
 When Senator Underwood some days ago declared to be false the intimation that he was supporting Speaker Clark in a covert attempt to win the presidential nomination, the political speculator was put to sleep. And save only to state that Speaker Clark is preparing to wage a camapign in the event that MT. Wilson should declare himself eliminated, the forecaster has permitted democratic poli- tics of the presidential order to continue Iundisturbed.
 However, concerning other than the presidential field. two interesting stories are going the rounds. The first is that other members of the Missouri delegation are urging Speaker Clark to run for the senate, the argument being that he alone can save the state to the democrats. The other story is to the effect that Tam many has sent out the recall for Senator O'Gorman of New York, and that at the conclusion of his term in 1917, that states man will retire to rebuild his personal for tune, and that William G. McAdoo Secre- tary Of the Treasury, will ask that the tiger decorate him with the abandoned robes.
 These are stories of the most diverting nature. Az to whether or not they are true. one does not know.

CENSORSHIP PLAN IN CASE OF WAR SHOWN IN SCOTT'S REPORT

 Regulations if Needed

Washington, January 2.-Details of out by the army general staff. are re- yealed in the annual report of Maj Gen, Hugh l.. Scott, chief of staff, made pub lie tonight The report says it is of vital importance that definite prepara- ton along this line be made before war is at hand or i've may anticipate greater confusion and dissatisfaction than Great Britain experienced if no plans be pre- pared and no personnel be selected for execution thereof until the time arrives when censorship and control of the press become as necessary as in Europe in 19l4.''
 The following is quoted from the staff plan: ..That an officer of the army designated hv the Secretary of War and an officer of the navy designated by the Secretary of the Navy be directed to consult with representatives of the press associations and managers of leading newspapers of the country in drafting legislation author izing the President to issue regulations for control of publication and censorship of telegraph, cable. wireless and mail communications wherever such course may seem to him necessary for the de- fense of the country.

In the first place, it is not yet proved that submarine sank the Persia. If it was an Austrian submarine, it must be determined whether the cir cumstances were such as to warrant the action taken.

 It is understood that Baron Zwie- dinek will call upon Secretary Lansing tomorrow for the purpose of informal ly conveying his views on the subject and endeavoring to gain an under standing of the views of the United States for the information of his gov eTnment.
 Only one dispatcF concerning the sinking of the Persia was received to- day by the state department. It came from Consul Garrels at Alexandria Egypt, and indicated that Consul Me Nicely, on his way to his post, had been lost He was last seen in the water before the steamship went down. con

Germany Said to Have Told Greece Best Interests De- mand Removal of the
 Allies From SalOniki

Berlin, January 2-(Via London)-The Morgen Post today publishes report that orders have been given to the Ger man and Austrian troops to Servia to ad- vance into Greece and attack the French and British. A Bucharest dispatch to the Morgen Post credits this statement to the Outro of Sofia.
 It is said Germany has communicated to Greece her desire to clear Grecian terri tory of the entente allied forces.
 The German minister at Athens, the dis patch says, told Premier Skouloudis the best interests of Greece demanded the re- moval of the French and British, inas- much as in the existing circumstances Greece would be exposed to danger from the troops of the central powers, which have been ordered to pursue the allies on Greek territory.

CAUGHT COLD WEEK AGO

About a week ago the justice con- tracted cold. His weakened heart was unable to bear the added burden of this iHfamma ton.
 About 9 o'clock this morning his con dtion was noted to be critical. The sys- tenn had ceased to throw off the normal poisons In the afternoon. after recog- nizing his wife and two sons, Phillip and William, he dropped off to sleep. Grad ually his breathing respiration grew less frequent until at S:30 tonight he gave a long sigh as of relief and was dead.
 Arrangements for the funeral were not completed tonight, but the burial will take place at Augusta, Ga. for many years the home of the justice. The funeral party will leave Washington for Augusta Tuesday at D. m.
 Had Justice Lamar lived until tomor- row noon he would have completed five years service on the supreme couft bench During the entire period he was regarded as one of the hardest workers ever on the bench. His opinions were written and rewritten as many as 70 times, and when handed down were re- garded as excellent specimens of diction It is said of him that when member ot the Georgia supreme court he once took an opinion to a public stenographer to write because he was humiliated at the number of times he had dictated it to his own secretary.
 About the time Justice Lamar returned to Washington last fall a movement was started to have Congress legislate so as to enable him to retire on full pay At that time Secretary Lane of the interior and Solicitor General John w. Davis of the department of justice were mentioned in discussions of his possible successor. It is believed that President Wilson will act at once in filling the vacancy beca use of the important cases now awaiting consideration before full court
 The court will meet at noon tomorrow and will adjourn immediately until after the funeral.
