ROCHESTER MINES
SHOW GOOD YIELD

Close to 100000 in bullion has been
turned out of the mill of the Roches-
ter Mines Company during the month
of December The second shipment
for the month is going forward the
first of the week, totaling $4,000.
Forty feet up in the raise from the
Transportation tunnel level the vein
shows four to five feet of good mill
ore. The report from the company's
Offices says:
"The raise from the 1000-foot level
to the 900-foot level has been COM
pleted. We are continuing to sink
the winze from the 900-foot level to
the 1000foot level, which will give us
two connections from ninth to tenth
levels. The ore opened up by the
raise is of about the same width and
values as that which we are now
stoping on the eighth and ninth levels.
"The raise from the Transportation
level, which we believe to be the west
vein, is now up forty feet, at which
point the vein averages between four
and five feet in width, carrying a
good grade of mill ore.
'The Foreman (650-foot level)
slopes are producing the usual amount
of mill ore. The other workings are
progressing satisfactorily, but there
is nothing new to report this week.
"The tonnage so far this month has
been 1S2 tons per day. The heads av-
eraged SLIP per ton. A bullion ship
ment amounting to $4,000 will be
made early next week covering the
last half of the December production.
This, added to the production of the
first half of December, gives a total
production of $5S,420 for the month,
and from the present outlook the
production for January should be as
large. - -IReview-Miner.

RENO GIRLS Want
TO BE in PICTURES

Certain Reno girls, like certain
Lovelock and Winnemucca girls, are
movie ambitious, says the Nevada
State Journal. Remembering the ex-
alted position In the film world oi
Edna Purviance, who came from the
little town up the line" they are now
inclined to insist that Reno girls have
their chance A real epidemic of that
insidious penchant to don the grease
paint and parade before the ruthless
eye of the camera, accompanied by the
bawls of the director and the clicking
of the film, has completely conquered
greater part of the feminine element
of this city.
This is a somewhat new ailment in
Reno, but a superficial diagnosis
shows that it threatens to become
acute. In Los Angeles this is some
what common-among visitors-but n
Reno the novelty of the experience
makes 1t all the more forceful.
The yearning to act in the movies
is the elimination, or what might 3e
termed the beginning of the end, OF
an announcement made several days
ago that there was a possibility D.
establishing a motion picture studio
in Reno for the production of some of
the famous Bret Harte stories. One
Hale Ayres, director-general of the
Premier Motion Picture Corporation
was mentioned as being in Reno look
ing over the site for studio.
Evidently Ayres has had some expe-
rience along this line, because he re-
fused to register at downtown hotel
and took up his residence with pri-
vate family. About the same time
another Ayres, whose first initial is
also H., registered at a well-known
downtown hotel. His residence there
has been one continual round of phone
calls and personal visits from the fair
sex of Reno. who. admitting that al
though they had never registered be
fore the camera, il was only out of
sympathy for Mary Pickford and
Theda Bara that they had kept in the
background, not wishing to force these
stars into oblivion.
Now, Ayres No 2 is an exceedingly
kind gentleman. and furthermore he
is married and has quite a time ex-
planning to his wife the promiscuous
calls from the fair young ladies of
Reno who have besieged him for the
past three days. He claims no con-
nection with the motion picture in
dustry. other than sitting back and
watching the reflection of the world
pass before him as a member of the
fourth estate.
II wouldn't mind it so much" said
Ayres No 2. last night, "but for the
fact that the applicants try to demon
strate their ability in the crowde
lobby of the hotel and most any time
can be found surrounded by mimic
Marie Dressler or some other female
Charlie Chaplin, and then again the
prospective Theda Baras try to 'vamp.
and-and my wife won't stand for it. -

LONG AND SHORT
HAUL OBJECTED TO

A united drive has been launched
by all intermountain states now SUI
fering because of the so-called "long
and short haul" to have clause in
corporated in the new government
railroad bill eliminating for all time
the "long and short haul" provisions
on freight rates and providing that
railroads charge no more for a shoi
than for a long haul. The question
was taken up at meeting of directors
of the Reno Commercial Club, Satur-
day night, says the Reno Gazette. The
organization is taking the initiative
in the matter and is endeavoring to
have commercial organizations in all
intermountain cities place the ques-
ton before their Senators and Repre-
sentatiyes.
AS a result of the meeting, tele-
grams were sent to Director McAdoo
of the railroads, Senator Key Pitt
man, Congressman e. +. Roberts, and
to commercial organizations in Salt
Lake City. Phoenix, Tucson Boise,
Spokane, Coeur d'Alene, Great Falls,
Albuquerque and Pendleton. setting
forth the question and asking coop
Grafton in having remedied. The tele-
gram to Mr.. McAdoo was as follows:
"The intermountain and southern
states have been Disseminated against
by railroads and their growth retarded
by practice of charging more for a
short haul than for a long one. The
Interstate Commerce Commission has
decided in our favor, but now IL is
powerless to enforce ruling. The en-
tire situation will be cleared and re-
lief granted il the government bill
now contemplated will provide that
no greater charge shall be made for q
short haul than for long haul. We
are backing the government. Will it
back us in a plea for fair play?"
To Senator Pittman and Congress-
man Roberts the following telegram
was sent:
please secure provision in contem-
by government making 1t obligatory
TO charge no more for short haul than
for long one. II trainers of bill will
not incorporate this, then introduce
amendment and fight it through. Sue
cess will earn everlasting gratitude of
entire intermountain country. Expect
kilograms from intermountain and
southern states asking their Senators
and Representatives TO make the same
fight:
To the various commercial organi-
cations this wire was sent:
Advise by wire your Senators,
Representatives and McAdoo to secure
absolute long and short haul provision
in proposed bill for operating railways
by government, or secure amendment
after introduction IL sponsors will not
incorporate in original bill"
In reply to the Commercial Clubs
telegram, Congressman f. f. Roberts
sent the following wire yesterday:
II heartily indorse your clubs atti-
tude. The government should now
settle question by making 1t obliga-
tory to charge no more for short haul
than for long one. Will use every
effort at my command"
