honor of its completion. Since the de-
struction Of Eureka Hall, in July last,
the people have found the need of a
centrally located and commodious
building in which to give parties,
dramatic performances and like enter
tainments, and in the completion of
the above named hall all that could be
desired has been accomplished. The
building is well adapted to all such &C.
casions, and when entirely finished will
be the finest hall in Eastern Nevada.
At the ball. on Thursday evening, a
goOdly number were In ~attendance;
perfect harmony prevailed among the
merry throng and dancing was contin-
ued until after 4 o'clock yesterday
morning, and even then many reluct-
antly dOnned their overcOats and
shawls, so pleasant and Delightfully."- had
the night passed away. The music, 10y
the Eureka String BAND, was excel
lent; none better could I've produced, and
Eureka may justly feel proud Of pos.
sessing such . fine band of musicians.
Though the music sounded infinitely
better than in the old hall, there was
still q defect, owing TO the ceiling not
being calcimined, a defect which will
soon be remedied.
Among the many present on the
floor, we noticed Mrs. Geo. Thatcher,

S%rALLED.-A wagon heavily laden
with charcoal, drawn by four span of
mules and horses, came to a sudden
halt yesterday. The driver had the
temerity to attempt to ford the duck
pond at the corner of Main and Gold
streets. The wagon was finally pulled
through, but not before thetOngue was
broken and two hours OF hard work
had been expended. 1t would be a
great benefit to have the place filled in,
but the property-holders in that vi
cinity, while willing to help, are not
disposed to do all the work for the
convenience of a few who are engaged
in tcafning and show no indication to
ut their shoulders to the wheel.
w
delays, the machinery for the new re-
ining works at the Richmond Smelt-
ing Company's works, has begun to
arrive. Tors of castings, some of a
most intricate sort, are now on the
ground, AMI many hundred tons more
are between here and Elko. The ma
chinery was all manufactured at Mar
settles, France, and has been a long
time reaching its destination. The
building inclosing tho machinery will
be completed and before many
weeks a new and valuable industry
will be added to the many now i'll sue
cesSiul operation in our midst.
THE NEXT BALL.-The mex social
event on the programme is the ball to
he given on the night of December 9th,
by the Templar Club, under the aus
pieces Of Reclamation Lodge, l. 0. G.
r. The socialS of last season given by
this club gave the greatest satisfaction
to the people, and it is only necessary
to say that those to I've given during the
present Winter will be characterized
by the same good p~ene6ement as be-
