QUARTZ MrLLs.-Mr. 8. Fountain,

informs us that the great Eureka mill
on Carson river Is so nearly completed
that it will start into operation for the
first time tomorrow. That turbine
wheel which Is expected to turn all the
vast amount OF machinery, Il n little
giant, and will do what 1t starts in on
unless the mill machinery gets the best
of il and turns the wheel, instead OF
the wheel turning the machinery. The
reason why a dog wags his tall, Is be-
cause the dog Is stronger than the tail:

hauling and repairing, and will start
up again about the 5th Of next month.
