A circumstance which we over
looked in the writing of tl'o Moore's
wharf fire yesterday, but which is
deserving of special mention, never
theless, was the efficient, although
unsolicited, help rendered by seven

trusive wey. did all in their power to
save property of the' W. P. & Y. U.
company that was within the danger

jLocal Talent At
Nugget Movies
Last night at the Nugget Movies,
j the audience was treated to a
splendid performance, acted by lo
jcal talent.
We went to scoff and have our
fling at the players whom we know
quite well, but came away feeling
that our time bad been well spent,
and we can find nothing to criticise
in the performance. We can truth
fully say that acts of less merit
I have been well received In larger
I cities. The action was smooth and
the humor clean and well acted. Lo
cal hits were many and the audi
ence expressed its pleasure in them
by laughing loud and long.
Mrs. Johnston, as the bothered
Mrs. Grapevine, performed ber part
perfectly, never once slackening tbe
action, and besought in true style
that the pestiferous "Book Agent"
be killed or done away with in any
manner possible.
Bud Fisher as Snowball, was a
scream and his black face work was
indeed a surprise. Bud, we feel, ha
missed his calling.
As the "Book Agent," Mr. Galla
gher faithfully depicted that much
maligned character, and although he
didn't succeed In selling his com
bination subscription, he tried
mighty hard.
The "Book Agent" will be re
peated tonight, so as to afford those
who attended the dance last night
an opportunity to see the play
There will be a change of pro
gram tomorrow night*, A little dra
ma entitled, "The Reconciliation."

BOXING STATUTE
! NOW m EFFECT
New York, Dec. 14—Tbe anti
boxing statute of California is to
/o into effect tomorrw, < r within a
few days. Contrary to general be
lief, however, the promoters and
boxers haven't begun to cry as yet.
They are waiting until legislature
meets in January when they will
take the law into the courts and
tinker about to find some constitu
tional loophole.
Promoters McCareyand Coffroth,
together with a whole fleck of pro
moters of minor prominence are
said to have made up a big purse
for this now nearly completed to
have the new law declared uncon
stitutional. i-.
