"TOO MUCH SPEED"

Automobile race enthusiasts will
see some of the high spots of the
big speed classic which was held at
the famous new Beverley Hills
Speedway near Los Angeles on Feb
ruary 81. 1921, when they see Wal
lace Reid's Paramount picture, Too
Much Speed" which will be shown
at the Liberty thatre, October %,
% and "a
One of the big features of this
picture is the race in which Wallace
Reid in the role OF Dusty Rhoades, is
supposed to participate, and the big
speed match referred to was used as
a background for the story. Many of
the most thrilling moments of the
big race were filmed and will appear
among the scenes of the picture.
Dusty Rhoades, a racing driver,
gives up the game to wed Virginia,
daughter of Pat MacMurran, Pakro
manufacturer Just before the we'd
ding is to take place, however, Dusty
accepts an open road challenge,

full attempt to elope with the girl,
Dusty secretly buys Pats discarded

"A ROMANTIC ADVENTURES"

Dorothy Dalton in a new Para
mount photoplay, "A Romantic Ad-
ventures" will be the chief attrac-
ton at the Liberty theatre October
25 and %. The picture was adapted
from Charles Belmont Davis novel,
"A Winter City Fayorite"
Miss Dalton has the role of Alice
Vanni, daughter of a New Orleans
dancing master. She has been
brought up by her father, her moth
er, a luxury-loving woman, having
deserted them. After Professor
Vannis death, his wife, now known
as Mrs, Martyr, reappears and takes
Alice to New York to exploit her
beauty and her talents as dancer.
Four years later, Alice, now a famed
danseuse, is at Monte Carlo with her
mother when she meets Maxwell, a
poor but worth while engineer. Mrs.
Martyr. desiring a wealthy match
for her daughter, induces her to
show interest in a Signor Castelli.
After he has been trapped into a
proposal, Mrs. Martyr tries to black
mail him. Alice, learning the truth,
exposes her mother and seeks happi-
mes swith young Maxwell.

THE CONCERT"

A splendid perturbation of THE
Concert, the play in which Leo Dit
richstein starred for several seasons
with such success, has been produced
by Goldwyn, and is booked to be
shown at the Grand theatre October
25 and 90.
THE Concert" is a keen study of
human nature and contains a fund
of sparkling humor--its situations
are genuinely laughable. 1t is the
story of a middle aged, temperament
tai musical genius and an impress
sionable young wife-not his own
and their adventure as soul mates "
The musicians sensible spouse and
the husband OF her rival" join
hands to teach the erring pair the
error of their ways by initiating
them. The result is easily forseen.
The musician fegs forgiveness of
his wife and the other woman rushes
into her own husband S arms, pdr-
manently cured of hero worship.

young Universal star, is scheduled to

ingly dramatic western story reaches

another powerful story to his Gold
wyn photoplays with the production

Their method is 20 exterminate those

new serial, an exact and authentic
story written around the adventures

From these wild cat schemes promot-

has gained reputation throughout
the nation as being the dumping
ground of questionable stock selling
schemes and although the people of
the nation realize the vast possibili-
ties for wealth through Nevada in

calling some crooked deal wherein
the state loaned its good name and
its own corporate seal as aids to the
eliminating of the scheming plans of
few people who became suddenly
wealthy through bilking the people.
Right now we are faced with the
necessity of compelling corporations
formed for the purpose of drilling
for oil to treat their stockholders
honestly. If this legislature sees fit

they ought to be forced to give the

nevertheless the spirit of protecting

SHEEPHERDERS To

Wages paid TO sheepherders ant

month on February /. according to q
statement given out by II. A. Agee Of
Wells, New. president of the Oxyoke
Land and Live Stock Company and al
SO of the Speptoe Live Stock Com
pany.
The reduction has been approved
according to Mr.. Agee. by the Utah
Construction Company. O'Neil Bros.
the Union Land and Cattle Company,
the companies represented by himself
and number of other concerns in
that section, and is expected to be
adopted by the smaller outfits with
out delay.
AT present wages paid to these
classes of labor range from SIS to $50
per month" Mr. Agree said, but they
reached that figure when wool was
selling from fifty to fifty-six cents a
pound and when living conditions
were entirely different from those
prevailing at the present time Most
of the outfits are now paying SIS
per month, but such wages cannot be
continued IL the industry is TO sur
vive and the owners escape bank
ruptcy."
According to Mr.. Agree, Eastern
Nevada sheep companies are still I'M
able TO dispose of their wool except
at a heavy financial loss.
I'VE were recently offered twenty
three cents pound for lot of grad
ed fine and medium-fine wool which
we have in Boston warehouses" he
said. which is equivalent to twenty
cents in Nevada for these grades. and
which would mean a price of from
twelve to thirteen cents pound upon
the lower grades of Nevada wool. We
could not accept the offer, but it was
interesting as an index to the present
state of the American wool market.
Eastern Nevada, says Mr.. Agree has
had an excellent winter. The ranges
are in good condition and there are
been an abundance of snow.-Reno

UNbURNAbLE COAL
FOUND IN IDAHO

Goal that will burn" has been
taken from many coal prospects in
eastern Idaho, yet what was thought
to be coal is not coal at all but phos-
phate rock. which contains so much
carbonaceous matter that IL closely
resembles coal. This rock has been
squeezed in some places by earth
movements and is black and shiny.
On distillation ii yields a small guam
tity of oil. Other coal prospects in
eastern Idaho are in carbonaceous
shale or in poor coal that has little
II any commercial value. A black
volcanic glass that Is found here and
there has also been mistaken for
coal. There are, however, two dis
tricts in the State that yield coal o.
good quality. One of these, the
Horseshoe district. on the west side OF
the Teton Basin. in Teton County, has
produced small quantities of coal,
which have been used chiefly to sup
ply the local demand. Improvements
now in progress will increase pro
duction. but the field is small and
the coal has been sheared by rock
movements, so that much of 1t shat
ters readily and will not stand trans
portation. The quantity of market
able lump coal available will aroba-
bly, not Justify development ca
large scale.
The other coal district Is in lark
County, on the Continental Divide. al
the head of Cottonwood Creek. Here
32-inch bed of good coal has been
found. but the area in which it crops
out is not large and it is so far from
lines of transportation and a suitable
market that its early exploitation is
doubtful.
