almost hear his clarion voice proclaiming it

IT is not good to be angry with those who

a rev words About the Mines
EDITOR SENTINEL-Comparatively but
little is known of the Eureka mines so
little is lone in the way of letting the world
know about them. Many persons from
abroad seem to think it a little spot con-
tanning two mines, the Richmond and
Eureka Consolidated-a sort Of a one-horse
place. The Richmond is quoted in Lon
don at $50 or more, while the Eureka
Con-, except one-the Union Con.-leads
the stock list on the Pacific Coast, and
ought by rights to stand alongside Of the
Richmond, which adjoins it. However, it
will be seen that very little is changing
hands. In u opinion it is one Of the
best investments on the coast, and we
might say OF all the mines. As stated be-
fore, the Richmond and Eureka, though
the bast paying mines in the district, and
in the world, are not the only paying
mines nor does the ore begin to average
as some other mines do which are being
worked, and daily ship ore to the Richmond
and Eureka for reduction-often work
ing up in the hundreds. A suit in court
at the present time has developed the fact
that there are thousands OF mines located
and recorded in Eureka Mining District,
comprised in a ten mile limit, with several
promising districts all around us within
twenty miles.
There has never been an extensive effort
made to produce an excitement, and the
work Of development has been in a quiet
way, mostly by poor miners, without the
aid Of capital and each effort to properly
represent the mines has proved a failure.
by being incompetently managed. Against
all difficulties the mines continue to i'm
prove, and her main town, Eureka, so re-
Gently in ashes, is fast rising, Phoenix like,
more beautiful than ever. r.

The C~entennfals of Ruby Hill To-
Night will Celebrate their Fourth
Anniversary. /

The Centennia1s of Ruby Hill To-
Night will Celebrate their Fourth
Anniversary.
With one accord the voice Of the people
is to the effect that to-night's ball, in
Miners Union Hall, Ruby Hill, will be a
gala affair and a grand success. And the
reason why is because the committeeman
are working; the citizens Of Eureka have
taken a hand, because they like the pro-
~jectors; the inhabitants Of adjacent noun
tains and valleys will stand in, because
they are proud Of the Company; the citi-
zens OF Ruby Hill never go back on her
sons, and even the Union Guard-a rival
Company stand solid as one man for the
success OF the Centennial Guard anni-
versary celebration. The hall is Hastily
decorated; the management and order OF
dances upon the floor will be quietly and
effectively conducted; the music will be
ize. and that is guarantee enough; Ed.
Trofatter, the boss caterer of the great
Northwest, will dish up as rich o repast as
was ever served on Ruby Hill, n II the
participants Of to-night's pleasures-as
guests of the Centennials don't pro-
nounce the affair frst-class and fully up to
their expectations, then the SENTINEL will
have missed its guess. C~onveyances will
be accessible, to and from the ball, at all
hours OF the night. The festive candidate
will be there. Sound the tom-tom, and
give the boys q rouser.

A, coon MINING PROPERTY.


A reporter Of the SENTINEL visited the
Mary Ann mine yesterday, and reports as
follows: The Mary Ann is q issure in the
limestone or country rock. Its strike Is
about northwest and southeast, towards
the Silver Conner mine, and dips about
ten degrees to the northeast into the
mountain. 1t is situated on the west side
of Prospect Mountain, and bears north
east distant 400 yards from the mouth Of
the Prospect Mountain Tunnel, and about
500 yards northwest from the Silver Con-
nor mine. The matrix is q ferruginous
quartz, from six to eight feet IN width.
The mine is opened by o shaft forty feet in
depth, containing carbonate ore from top
to bottom, having an average width OF TWO
and one-half feet, running, per assays, in
gold and silver. from $40 to 500. There
is about fifteen tons Of ore on the dump,
and much is wasted through carelessness
at the dump pile. This mine, for a pros
pect, has a fine showing, and some day in
the near future will render q good account
Of itself.
The wagon road leading to the Prospect
Mountain Tunnel is not more than 200
yards away A short tunnel driven from
the south side of the ridge would tap the
ore body 400 feet in depth, and by this
means a great mining property could be
opened up. This property has recently
been surveyed and the boundaries estab-
lished by United States Deputy Surveyor
Major Long. The owners of the mine are
Ed. Looney and Mike Walsh, Of Eureka,
and some others. They have spent con-
siderable money ON it already, and intend
to prosecute the work for further develop
ments. All honor to men who have conf
dence in Eureka's great future, and who
spend their money in developing the great
mineral wealth that is buried away among
the rocks of Prospect Mountain.

An Attempt to Revive Old.Time
Customs.

V10
Customs.
We are informed that an agent for Uncle
Dick Barnes has been making inquiries and
e~ndeavoring to secur the services Of Q
lightweight, female race-rider, to attend
as 6 sort of an attractive feature at his
Currant Greek races on the 4th, 9Th and
9Th Of October. He had not succeeded in
catching the lightweight" at last ac-
counts. But the idea is not original with
Uncle Dick. Many years ago, it was over
the Knavesmire curse at New York, that,
in August, 1904, Mrs. Annie Thornton,
wife of the famous Colonel Thornton, rode
Vingarello against her brother-in-law,
Captain Flint, on Thornville, the distance
being four miles at catch-weights, and the
wager 500 guineas a side and a private bet
OF 1000 more. There were 100, 900 per-
sons on the course, which was kept by the
9th Dragons, n more than 81 ,000, 900
changed hands on the race. At the start
the betting was "fve to four and six to
four on the pe~tticoat," at two miles it was
seven to four, and at three miles two to
one. Mrs. Thornton took the lead and
kept it, increasing it steadily until in the
last mile a saddle-girth slackened and she
could not maintain her pace. Never" says
the New York Herald of August 25th, 1904,
" did a woman ride in better style. 1t is
difficult to say whether her craftsmanship,
her beauty, or her dress were most admir-
ed. She rode in a leopard-colored body,
with. blue sleeves, the skirt buff, and blue
cap. No words can express the ~disappoint-
ment at the defeat OF Mrs. Thornton. The
spirit she displayed and the good humor
with which she bore her losses greatly d.
minished the exultation of many OF the
winners" In the following year Mrs.
Thornton made a match for 1000 guineas,
with a bet Of 600, with Mr.. Bamford, who
at the last moment, declined to ride, and
let her canter over the course; she also
rode a match against the famous jockey,
Frank Buckle. Mrs. Thornton, "habited
in a purple cap and waistcoat, long nan
keen skirts, purple shoes, and embroidered
stockings" cut out the running, and
though once Buckle passed her, she closed
in on him and beat him after a desperate
finish, or, to quote from the chronicle,
"the lady, by the most excellent horse
manship, pushed forward and came in in
a superior style to anything of the kind
we ever witnessed, gaining the race by half
a neck" Her admirers carried her back
on their shoulders to the grand stand in
triumph.

My.ter,ous BeII Rtnging.

People living near the Silver Prize mine,
says the Tuscarora Times Review, say that
every night about 10 o'clock there is a
ringing of the signal bell at the mouth Of
the shaft. The mine has not been worked
for nearly a year, nor has any person. so
far as is known, been down into its depths
during that time. There is no one about
the hosting works, the premises being
apparently quite deserted. The bell is
said to be rung by some unseen agency
from below, and there are many who be-
lieve that it is attributable to supernatural
causes. A number of non-ghost-fearing
gentlemen are making arrangements to
unravel the mystery.

For County Clerk.

There are several Republicans who de-
sire to be Clerk Of this county, and G. J..
R. Buttlar, in this mornings SENTINEL,
himself as one Of the willing
ones. Mr.. Buttlar proposes to make a
good, square, stand-up fight for the Re-
publican nomination, and if he secures
that will then play a high hand with his
opponent for the prize. Mr.. Buttlar has
proved to be an efficient accountant and
general business manager for the firm Of
r. Sadler & Co. for several years; is an
old White Piner, and is widely and favor
ably known throughout the county. The
Republicans Of Eureka county could not
sacrifice a better man-and We are not SO
sure about the sacrifice" either.

preparation to bleach red noses. 1t has
been examined and found to consist Of a
liquid containing benzoic acid. salycilic
acid and thymol, and a powder composed
of oxide Of zinc, French chalk, and a
trace of carbolic acid. 1t is evident that
the discoverer Of menyl thinks the red
color of the nose to be due to a beginning
of decomposition. since all the aromatic
antiseptics enter into the preparation OF
his nostrum.

OF political aspirants can be found that Of
Mat Kyle for reelection to the Office Of
Sheriff Of Eureka county. Mat holds his
candidacy subject to the action Of the Re-
publican County Convention. II he then
aud there receives that body's support.
Mat will be a foeman worthy OF true DEM
ocratic steel. Upon his old stamping
ground ruby HID Mat polls a strong
vote, as the record Of two years ago will
show. He lived and did a good business
among those people; they liked him and
stood nobly by him in one election, and
are liable to do so again should he be
nominated. The general verdict is that
Mat Kyle has a good record as Sheriff Of
Eureka county. As a popular man and
officer, look out for the tally of votes.
