TONOPAH COLONY ESTABLISHED
ON BEACH NEAR SAN DIEGO

One of the prettiset surburbs of
San Diego is going to have a regular
Tonopah colony, according to the
terms of a gift made recently by
Mike Hall in memory of his brother,
Jack Hall. To carry out the idea Mr..
Hall has set aside fifty lots. each
40x125. in the fashionable Bird Rock
section, within eight minutes walk OF
the finest beach on the southern
coast, where bathing may be enjoyed
every day of the year. The only
stipulation is that the recipients i'm
prove their lots by building at an
early day, comfortable homes con-
forming to the designs which have
made Bird Rock n of the show
spots of San Diego. In addition to
securing a seaside home the owner
of lots in this section have the ad-
vantage of the finest soil for garden
products. where anything from citrus
fruits to vegetables can be raised
with scarcely an effort.
The location is directly on the Lin
coin Highway between Los Angeles
and San Diego. Already there is the
nucleus of a live and congenial col
ony. owing to the presence of such
men as w. ]. Douglas. AL. Frevert
Jim Butler. Ed Kirchen and w. W
Booth. and others who have built
beautiful homes. Since the first an
nouncement several have taken lots
and several contracts for construction
are now in the making.-ITonopah

Bailey entered the saloon through

BAD MINING CAMP
Continued from Page one)

tNousihucu from rage OueJ
of mining camp life that has gone
down the years unmatched, even in
the widest imaginings of the seen
ario writers. Every man. woman and
child in camp united to camouflage
the devilish utmost in wickedness.
Mrs. Glyn had expected something a
bit thrilling, but nothing as hectic as
the show Baker and Newhouse pro-
duced for her especial benefit, though
the novelist firmly believed such or
gies were a nightly occurrence.
Just as a curtain raiser a bale of
excelsior was stuffed into an clubhouse
and set on fire SO Mrs. Glyn might
see the fire department, pride of the
camp, in action. Just as the flames
were shooting up nicely, a high wind
sprang up and the one big hotel in
town caught fire. For a time it looked
as IL the whole camp would go I'D in
smoke. but the fire boys finally won
out. During the excitement hundreds
of workers on the graveyard" shift,
who were in bed, fled to the streets.
clad only in B. v. DIS, pajamas or
robes de mutt. This part of the show
was real.
After the fire was under control,
Mrs. Glyn was taken to the gambling
"dens." Here she saw poker played
with chips at 500, 900 each, roulette,
with bets of $4,000 to a single num-
Der, and faro bank with a bagatelle
of $4,000 on the high card. 1t was
all very real to Mrs. Glyn. Then she
was taken to some of the lurid dance
halls and found the girls literally
armed to the teeth, with pistols on
their hips and daggers between their
lips. She saw barrooms where moth
ing but champagne was sold, paid for
from bullying buckskin bags of gold
dust" and saloons into which the
merry, carefree cowboys would ride
on their wild bronchos ever and
anon, playfully shooting out the
lights with their six guns
Mrs. Glyn by this time was dazed
with amusement. but still game
and the evenings festivities were
closed with a general gun battle, end
ing with about half the camps popu-
lation lying dead" in the streets.
Mrs. Glyn departed, believing she had
seen a real mining camp at last. with
its denizens enjoying themselves in
quite their usual custom.

hemian Clubs high jinks on the coast,

NEwSBOYS STRIKE

Newsboys of Ely who handle the
Salt Lake Tribune from the agency
of L. H. Murdoch declared a strike
and refused to handle the papers
or allow the route boys to distribute
their papers.
The grievance declared by the boys
was that the agency discriminates in
supplying certain boys with papers
far enough ahead of the others to
give these favorites the cream of the
trade. 1t is reported that the route
boys ride to the train with the truck
that brings up the papers and that
these boys are supplied at once with
the fresh editions and allowed to
start selling before the regular
newsies have a chance to get theiI
papers.-(White Pine News.

BROKEN BLOSSOMS

The Please u Theatre had a capa-
city house Monday night at Broken
Blossoma' which is Il gripping story
of the tragic life of a London girl,
| loved by Il Chinaman, cruelty treated
by her father, and living pure life
almost devoid Of happiness or good
cheer. The two great characters of
the play are Lucy" impersonated by
Miss Lillian GiSh, and the dreamy,
slant-eyed Monaghan who shows his
emotion as only an Oriental can
Lucys father, Battling Burrows" is
an abysmal brute that acts the part
OF al ungrateful father as only a
| brute could
The play opens in China where the
temple bells are tinkling and the
Buddhist priest sends the young man
into the new world with lots of good
advice. This is soon forgotten as
the Chink comes to London to open
u store near the docks and there arc
scenes of the underworld where the
young man is prominent feature.
Later Lucy comes into his life,
Transforming his character and with
His transformation comes the devel-
opment of girl into lady, richly
gowned in Chinese silks and receiving
for the only time in her life the at
tention and friendship of another
person.
But the blossoms are soon broken
for the father hears that a Chink is
fond OF his daughter and after he
wins in prize fight he drags the girl
home and the climax of the tragedy
is quickly reached.
After it is all over the ship is seen
bearing the Chinaman back to the
land Of dreams and the home of his
ancestors.
Throughout the play there are
many pictures of great interest, the
rich traceries of the Chinese temples,
the dark and damp London docks,
the interior Of the Chinaman's store
with its wealth Of merchandise and
decorations, and the exciting scenes
of the prize ring.
Broken Blossoms" will be given
twice at the PlcaseU tonight, at Z

get together tomorrow afternoon
at Boulevard Field at 4 80 O'Clock.

one of the best amateur aggre-
