sipation, still makes the pursuit of
women his chief occupation. He has
many conquests to his credit but his
interest centers upon Rosa of the OPP
era, whom he has established in lux
ury and upon whom he spends his
wealth layishly. The Baron chances
to meet Therese Beauchamp, the be-
trothed of Henri De Targy, and is
much taken with her innocence and
loveliness. Therese's father, on the
verge of ruin. compels her to marry
the wealthy nobleman, whereupon
Henri. her fiance, marries Marcelle, a
frivolous creature with aspirations to
a theatrical career. The Baron sees
Marcelle, his tickle heart is again cap
tivated, and in order TO have this new
object of his affections always near

arson arrive. In the midst of the fes-
tivities, the host arises to propose
oast to Rosa. Then outraged nature
sxacts her vengeance. Weakened by
his excesses the Baron's heart stops
md fresh from the orgy of depravity
and wickedness his evil soul rises to
meet its Judgment.

TO ORGANIZE TWO
CAVALRY TROOPS

The Secretary of War has author
lied the state of Nevada to organize
two troops of cavalry. Adjutant-Gen-
eral Sullivan has been assured by
army officers of the Western Depart
ment that as soon as the Nevada
troops are organized they will be in
spected and accepted by the federal
government, and will undoubtedly be
ordered to the Mexican border as soon
as they receive the regular army
equipment, which will be issued to
them as soon as the troops are ac-
cepted for United States service.
Acting upon the assurances receiv-
ed, Governor Boyle has ordered Ad-
jutant- General Sullivan to Immediate
ly organize at least two troops of cav
airy. and General Sullivan has issued
general orders directing the immedi-
ate muster in and mobilization of said
troops. The mobilization point has
been designated as Carson City, and
mastering officers have been appoint
ed in various districts throughout the
state, who will enlist recruits at their
home stations and send them to Car
son City, where the organization will
be completed.
Citizens of Nevada desisring to en-
list in the first state organization to
leave for the border should look up
their nearest mastering officer and
"sign up" as the first installment of
soldier boys is limited; so in order to
get in you will have to act at once.
Mastering officers in your district
will give any additional information
desired

RICHARD JOSE AT
NIXON THURSDAY

No song of modern times ever
swayed an audience as Mr.. Jose's
singing of Silver Threads Among the
Cold and what more fitting tribute
to this popular actor and sweet singer
could the X. & r. Film company offer
to this great artist, than to embody
the song into photo play form with
Dick Jose as the central figure Those
who have seen the big six-part pro-
duction assert that it will sweep the
country as the song has done and will
live forever. The X. e X. company
have surrounded Mr.. Jose with a star
cast of principals and several hundred
others, making in all the most origi-
nal offering ever seen in motion pic
lures; play of heart and home with
blending of quaint humor that
drives a tear away with a laugh, and
with a moral that makes one feel bet
ter after viewing it Every inch of the
film means something worth while
there are no wronged women or viii
famous crimes depicted-it is so diff
ferent from all other photoplays that
Silver Threads Among the Gold"
comes as a blessing to the millions of
picture fans and the K. & r. Film
company are to be congratulated or
their first production. 1t will be seen
at the Nixon opera house Thursday
evening.
