the evening, partaking of the
delicious coffee, tea and punch
and tempting delicacies on the
tea table.
We certainly enjoyed the So
called rehearsal at Fort Myer.
Rehearsal, indeed, but we think
it was the real first perform
ance SO smoothly did every
thing go off, with not a sign
of a hitch or tieup anywhere.
The costumes are colorful and
exactly what they should be.
The real show will be given
tomorrow and Saturday.
One very unusual bit was
that, before everything started,
the audience was asked, begged
and implored to make as much
noise as they could, so that
the amplifiers might be tuned
Tor whatever they do to them)
to the proper strength. Nat
urally, the assembled people
became as quiet as the we'll
known church mouse. Then,
when they discovered that the
nice-sounding voice over the
radio was serious, they CO.
operated and when usual con-
versation ran out, as it will
when you really want it, we
heard "rhubarb, rhubarb, buzz,
buzz"
As to the show itself, Fort
Myer certainly has something
to be proud of. The jumping
teams in their gay attire were
splendid; the Indian maidens
and their tandem ride drew
much applause for their skill
full handling of two mounts.
Especially good was Ellen
Dryden, whose horses kept
their positions almost to a
rulers exactness.
Then there were the Indian
braves-who were brave in
deed to come out in this
weather in the costumes they
did-the hunt scene was most
enjoyable and the column Of

tivity of prospectors and mining
engineers today transformed the
sensational Jumbo gold mine from
an isolated gold strike into the
center of promisingly large min
ing district.
AS tests continued to show val
liable ore over wide extent, John
A. Fulton, director of the MacKay
School of Mines at the University
of Nevada, began preliminary sur
veys to select the best point to start
operations of the five claims owned
by DR.. Bart Hood of Reno and
George and Jesse Austin, adjoinin-
ing the Jumbo property on the
north.
r. w. Hanna, president of
the Standard Oil Company of Cali
fornia acquired an option of the
claims last week after visit to the
area with former President Herbert
Hoover. Hanna selected Fulton to
handle the engineering work.
Ed Benane, well-known mining
man, together with Congressman j.
G. Scrugham of Nevada, has option
ed property adjoining the Jumbo
claims on the west. Scrugham said
pannings can be obtained on the
surface. He is preparing a plan of
development.
