MYSTIC MINERVA WITH SHOW

One of the most popular attrac-
tons with the Brown Amusement
Company is Mystic Minerva, who tells
your past and future without asking
you a question. She gives the date
of your birth, your name, and tells the
time of day without looking at your
watch. There are other features in
Prof Gordien's Palace of Mystery and
Magic that must be seen to be appre-
ciated. Gordien is on a par with the
best of magicians and his wit and
humor adds to the delight of his per-
formances. But the most mystifying
of all is the Red Box Mystery, with
it's weird setting and thrilling epi-
sodes Everybody who sees it is
amazed and awed.

OIL Is DISCOVERED WHILE
DIGGING POST HOLE on RANCH

A rifle excitement was created in
Reno last night when Ed. Questa re-
ported that oil had been struck on
the Bridgeman ranch, located in Wa
shoe Valley, about three and one
half miles from Reno. According to
Questa's story Bert Bridgeman, own
er of the ranch, made the strike while
digging a post-hole and that the fluid
which bubbled up in the bottom gives
unmistakable evidence of possessing
value.
Questa lives on the Bridgeman
property and declares this is the sec
ond instance of oil having been dis
covered in the southern part of
Washoe county. 1t is said samples
will be brought to Reno today for
testing purposes.
1t is reported that farmers owning
property in the vicinity of Huffak-
er's have been offered large sums for
their farms. One sale was at the
$40, 900 mark.-[Reno Journal.

USE A BAG TO SAVE
TREE FROM LOCUST

After seventeen years underground
the periodical cicadas-"sevcntcei
year locusts"-of brood No. 10 began
emerging in the latitude OF Washing
ton in considerable numbers the night
of May 21. The great swarms were ex-
pected to come during the next few
nights. During the next few days tree
trunks, bushes and chuncks were
thickly studded with cast pupa skins.
The period during which the cicadas
do damage to trees by splitting the
branches to deposit eggss would not
begin for ten days or so. according to
entomologists of the United States
department of agriculture. Within
that period it would be easily possible
for the individual orchardist or farmer
to determine whether or not the in
sects were present in sufficient num-
bers to make protective measures
necessary.
The one sure means of protecting
young trees, the entomologists say, is
to place a bag over each tree. Sprays
and similar measures have not been
found particularly effective.

STATE AND COUNTY
NOT TO LOSE MONEY

Relative to an articles printed in
the Carson News stating that the
state would lose several hundred
thousand dollars because of the omis-
sion of word in a resolution drawn
by the Tax Commission, the following
statement has been sent to NJ. Rein
hart, member of the commission, by
Governor Boyle:
Owing to AN Inconsistency in one of
the blanks sent out by the Tax Com
mission for the return of statements
of bullion tax, certain properties in
the state over the past year have
doubtless deducted construction costs
from gross proceeds, thereby depriv-
ing the state and counties of some
revenue. The exact extent of this ar
rearage has not been determined. II
is probable that assessed valuations
aggregating 100000 have not been
reported and that the state and coun-
ties have thereby been deprived of
revenue amounting to between $500
and $4,000. The states proportion of
this would be about one-fifth of the
total. There Is no doubt that the
amounts not collected can be readily
secured after an audit of the COM
panies' records

Cal is pitcher de luxe and also

when the game is close and a hit
means run, he is rushed into the
battle and usually comes through
with a hit.
His first error" is to fall in love
with the minister's daughter. Then.
in attempting to show his Uncle, the
Deacon, good time, they are arrested
and the Deacon spends the n IN

the outcome. Here it is, in the hair

in the end. that he is a pinch hitter
