Walter Luak,s Miahap.

The San Francisco Report has the
following concerning the terrible ac-
cident to Walter X. Lusk: w. r.
Lusk, an employee in O'Brien d Sons
carriage factory, Polk and Golden
Gate avenue, met with q horrible &C.
cident. He was standing on a plat
form and trying to push a belt off a
wheel rear the ceiling, when his
right hand was caught in the betting
and vas torn off just above the wrist.
Lusk grasped the bleeding stump and
cody walked to the Office, where he
laughingly informed the proprietors
that they had "lost a hand" holding
up the arm as evidence. His fellow
workmen bandaged the limb to stop
the flow OF blood. Lusk walked from
the patrol wagon into the hospital and
climbed upon the operating table
without assistance. He lay nearly an
hour without q murmur until the
shock could pass off before the arm
was amputated and dressed. He dis
played more courage and fortitude
than any man ever see in the hos
pital. He is a Young man and has
been married but a short time. He
lives at APO Ivy avenue.

Must Keen the Peace.

The Carson Appeal says: Zach
Taylor, a young sport Of this city made
a complaint in the Justice Court TO
the effect that Louis Kelly, a paper
hanger, had threatened to kill him on
sight and asking that he be bound
YER to keep the peace. Kelly was ar
rested and examined a few hours
later. Several witnesses testified that
Kelly had met Taylor in Livingston's
saloon, called him a good many hard
names, spat on him and challenged him
to fight on pain OF being shot. Kelly
admitted having used the threatening
language, but declined to state the
provocation or agree not to carry his
threats into execution. The Court
accordingly placed him under $500
bonds, saying that the laws would be
enforced if there was any more
threatening declarations. Late in the
afternoon Kelly entered Sweeny's
saloon, sent for Taylor, told him he
was wrong and was sorry for it; both
shook hands and peace reigned.

feet deep with sides nearly perpen-

Wednesday was q wild day in Ely.
Old Boreas turned himself loose and
in his raging wrath held sway over all

The wind blew a hurricane, accom-
panied by a snowstorm, which drifted
badly. Hardly any one ventured out
doors. Down the valley we learn it
was still worse than here, and huge
snow drifts we're piled up in many
places, while the ground is bare in
others. 1t was one of the most blind
ing storms we have ever seen in
White Pine.
We have had but one mail from Eu-
reka this week and that last Tuesday,
though the stage came in twice. 1t re-
ported q blockade or the Palisade
railroad. This makes it hard to get
out a paper in q dull town where there
is no local news; but we feel we can
moi justly complain at the non-arrival
of the maila aa tha roodo hatwaop have

while it is most likely the railroads
too are blocked. Later-Just as we

the Eureka stage came in with all the
back mail, which we have no time to
look over.

Glass Filling for the Teeth.

Persons who object to the con-
spicuousness Of gold filling when it is
placed in the front teeth may now
have their dentists use a substance
which resembles the teeth 80 closely

tected only by a close and careful ex-
animation. This new filling is a kind
Of glass and Is the invention Of a Ger
man. 1t was put on the market only
a short time ago. but 1t has been used
enough to prove that the idea Is a
capital one. The glass comes in the
form Of q sand, which is made OF nine
different tints. Those hues range
from a bright white through various
yellows to a kind of pale pink. Cen
orally a set OF teeth will have about
the color of one the ten kinds Of sand,
but to have the two exactly the same

Mr.. Harry Jackson and Miss Ina

bride will be remembered as the
young lady who visited in Eureka two

known 10 pretty much every n in

some years he has held and still holds
the responsible position OF Secretary Of
the Eberhardt Mining Company, an
English concern doing business in
White Pine county. Rev. Father
Walrath, of the Catholic Church at
! Colusa, pronounced the marriage cere-
mony in the impressive manner pc

well was bridesmaid, and Fred Butt
Of San Francisco acted as best man.
The wedding party proceeded almost
at once to the Bay, where the holidays
were spent. The young couple have
the good wishes OF a host OF friends in
Eureka and vicinity. The bride also
brings with her q shower Of choice
blessings from her old home in
Colusa, where she was a great popular
fayorite. The local papers devote a
good deal OF space to a description Of
