Sealed
Records
Again
AT
WANAMAkER'S

ITHE Wanamaker Store
was one of the first
and few stores in the
country to sell its customers
sealed, unused records. Then
the war came on and upset
our plans because there was
a shortage of phonograph
records. Stocks were incom-
plete, and we couldn't con-
tinue the sealed record plan.
But now we're back to the
original idea. There is one
stock of records. for dem
onstrating purposes. These
records are plainly labeled
SAMPLE, and they are
not sold. They are simply
used for you to hear, and
when you purchase you re-
celve a new unused record
in a sealed envelope, so ar
ranged that you may take
the record out of the en-
velope, examine it, and re-
place it without breaking
the seal.
y
Why buy records that
may have been used time
and time again for dem
onstrating purposes, when
the Wanamaker Store Of
fers you sealed, unused
records at the same prices?

AL of us had gppd time last even-
ing at the Lycrrm IN the ohserwatipn
of Miss Frances Starr as determined
little sempstress, pursuing with matri
monial intent) an evasive though ingra-
tiating sailorman in the person of Mr..
James Rennie.
1t is said that we enjoyed ourselves
because the comedy, "Shore Leave"
by Hubert Osborne, besides being
plausible essay in sentimentality was
an admirable study of an American
"gob" and an efficient utensil for Miss
Starr's hardworking art. Extrava-
giant now and then in it's endeavor to
please, it was on the whole faithful
accomplishment in humorous romance.
One of the acts occurred on the lowly
modiste's voluptuous freighter off the
New England coast, and the presence
aboard Of score of comic man o. wars
men inspired considerable enthusias-
tic laughter. But the plays most SUBJ
stantial petition was its honest, un-
usual picture of the sailor and the
patient, resourceful waiting of the pa
thetic little dressmaker.
This navigator, "Bilge" Smith, was
handsome, independent young adven-
turer, who, drifting into the seaport
hamlet where Miss Starr piled her
needle, ignited her with the flames of
marriage. Her humble hospitality
cheered but did not inebriate him,
and he went away. as sailors are said
to do, and forgot. Her heart-beats
for him, persisted, however, and when
good fortune made her well-to-do she
invested large sums to discover in
which of the Seven Seas he was
breasting the lofty surges. Among her
devices to find him was q dancing
party aboard her boat, the Zonoma, to
which she invited all the Smiths in
the American navy. Most of them
came, including an Admiral and
"Bilge," who arrived tardily, and, it
| seemed, trife lit To an obliging
| obligato by melting violins across the
waters "Bilge" recalled his conversa-
/ tions with her two years before, and
with a seamans traditional impetu-
osity asked her to become Mrs Smith
But upon learning of her riches he
reconsidered and brushed her aside
with indignation. This action, by the
way, resulted in fisticuffs between
"Bilge" and Battling Smith, an efficient
naval pugilist, which, I suspect would
! have been better and more Belascoan
if they had been deprived of Miss
Starr's dubious participation.
Mr. Belasco seemed at fault in few
other places, however, and the "produc-
ton" was complete and veristic from
real pie upon the supper table, to the
hollow moan of breakers on a desolate
Atlantic shore. Miss Starr, I think,
was more happily disposed than
have seen her hitherto, and save for an
occasional anxious inclination to over
strive, was simple, reticent and appeal
ing. Mr.. Rennie's representation of
the sailor was topnotch example of
Characterization, applied TO role as
truthfully observed and written by Mr..
Osborne as any you have seen in an
American comedy. There was more
than the customary frst-night applause
last evening, to which the author and
Mr.. Belasco responded, the latter in
his usual small, modest and embar-
rassed speech.

HOPEFUL SIGN FOR COPPER

A news dispatch announces that the Anaconda
Copper Mining Company has completed arrange
mcnts to purchase the American Brass Company.
News OF any development in the copper industry
is of particular interest to the intermountan sec
ton, which depends in large measure upon this in
dustry for its growth and prosperity and growth,
For months the copper mines and mills have been
closed, or working basis of very small output,
owing to the lack OF demand for copper and the low
price OF that product, Thousands OF men either
directly connected with the industry or in lines of
work dependent upon il, have been thrown out of
employment and, much shipwrecked mariner

less men, as well as other men and women whose
money is invested in copper, have watched eagerly
for signs OF reviving activity The purchase of the
American Brass by the Anaconda Copper is re-
garded as hopeful sign.
The Anaconda evidently wishes to have hand
in the manufacture of products into which raw cop
per goes. Similar action on the part of other
big mining concerns has been predicted or at least
limited. The vital reasons for this attitude will
probably be found within the industry ITSELF but it

GOLD THAT MADE

George Foster is getting out of the
Jumbo mine at Goldfield, some of the
stuff that started the rush to the south
ern camp back in the days of 1904
From 12-inch vein he extracted l6
sacks of high-grade that will carry
m average of $3.50. 60, according to
careful sampling. In addition to this
there is lot of tons, good milling
ore, that will run in the hundreds OF
dollars. The ore was extracted
from what was formerly known as
the Jennings & Kerr lease which Mr..
Foster bought about a month ago.
In prosecuting the leasers shot into
an old shaft, put down to a depth of
50 feet, and encountered the vein
which was almost cut by the men who
sank the shaft back in the nineties
Sampling of " inches of the find re-
turned $7483.50 including negligible
values in silver. From the center of

After week of continuous storms
his section of Nevada and California
IS buried beneath one of the heaviest
falls of snow that has occurred in re-
cent years.
Ninety inches of solid snow is re-
ported to have fallen at Blue Lakes
while at Markleville II inches re-
mains on the ground. In Lake valley
the snow has settled down to about
three and one-half feet, and due to the
TACT that considerable rain fell in the
higher attitudes, the snow there is
almost solid ice At Bridgeport about
three feet on the level is reported
The storm was general throughout
Nevada and a prominent stockman
has characterized it as million dol.
lar storm. The storm means much
to the farmers of Carson Valley and
while stock feeding and necessary
farm work has been made difficult
the farmers are overlooking the hard
ships of winter because of the good
that is sure to result next season dur
ing the growing period.

reports that the Bridgeport stage is
