The water pipes in nearly all the wooden
houses about town were frozen up yester-

We lave never before seen thermometers
in such demand as they were yesterday.
Everybody wanted to see one.
The new machinery at the Eureka Con.
mine started up at noon yesterday and
worked smoothly and satisfactorily.
The Enterprise says Senator Fair will

thy, has been iappointed physician of the

ing Superintendent arrived from San

that the Martin White Mining Company's
mill is running nicely, and will commence

News was received here yesterday that
the Navajo mill, Tuscarora, would proba-

becoming unmanageable, owing to the
freezing up OF the water pipes.
The barroom-stove sharps discussed the
weather yesterday, and told how much
colder weather they had experienced in
SOM of the Eastern States. We are dis
tressed to think that some of them lied.
Superintendent Bliss of the Water
Works Company was about town last even
ing trying all the water mains. He found
them in good condition and none frozen.
If he does not have some Of them frozen
up before this cold snap subsidies he will
be in good luck.
Thomas Trainer, proprietor of the Eu-

The Rev. George W, James is something
like the restless Apostles of old. He has
arranged for another preaching circuit, as
follows: Wednesday next at Elko, Thurs
day at Carlin, and Friday at Palisade. He
hopes to have good services at all three
places, and we hope his good friends will
do all they can to make them so.
Edward Clifford, employed at the Eureka
o Furnaces, while emptying a Stag pot
yesterday morning was severely burned
about the eyes and face, and also had his
clothing burned. Possibly he may lose
his eyesight by the accident. He had just
recovered from a similar accident that oc-
CURED to him several weeks ago.
