The leap year ball given by the ladies of
Eureka last week was bowling success,
as is every entertainment conducted by
them. AS no gentleman was admitted TO
the hall without lady escort many selfish
old bachelors (and some young ones, too,)
are kicking themselves ever since because
they had not secured some kind of girl
good hearted and abnegating enough to in
vlte them to the ball and all are turning
over new leaf in hopes of another similar
occasion.
Keeping in mind the old adage about the
early bird many prominent mining men are
now visiting Tintic and there will be many
prospects transformed. into mines before
1873. Ilntlc offers better opportunities for
the right kind of investors than any camp
in the west; nowhere else can prospecting
be done as Cheaply, with one-nalf the
chances of success. ProspectorS are will

give leases on good properties for reason
able time. The mines are dry, no water 10
contend with, and the ore averages more in
value than that of any other camp west of
the Missouri river With these induce
ments and as fine a climate as can be found
anywhere Tintic will surely receive the
hons share of attention from all who have
heard of her great mineral resources and
have money to invest in mining enterprises.

THE TUG UF WAR.
Varying Fortunes in the Contest for National
Preference.

Varying Fortunes in the Contest for National
Preference.
Our highly interesting tug-of war tour
nament was held in the opera house on
Thursday evening, the first of course of
six contests. The first which proved very
interesting, was composed of Young Amer
lea, T. Collins, captain, VS.. Young Eng
land, Harry Gray, captain, and after
a very spirited and enthusiastic pull,
resulted in victory for Young
America who pulled the ribbon over the
mark amid great deal of cheers and ap-
plause.
The next pull was to have been between
America and England, but owing to the
non-appearance of the latter the Irish
team consented to pull, with j. A. Sullivan
and w. j. Coulon as captains. B. B. Brown
acted as captain for the Americans.
The pull started amidst much enthusi-
asm, with the advantage in favor of the
Irishmen, who, after pull of about fifty
seconds, won easily, the ribbon passing
far beyond the mark. The first pull hav-
ing been thought unfair, it was tried again
at the conclusion of the evening with the
Englishmen the winners.
NOTES ON THE FLY.
Young England made a strong pull.
Harry Gray was rustling like a good
fellow
Frank Collins was strictly sin it" with
his team.
Captain Coulon was debsrred from act

AFTER THE GRIPPE.
The Grippe Responsible for More Deaths
after Recovery than During its Course.
How to Avoid the Danger.

Grippe, in ITSELF is bad enough, facilitating
enough, but it Is the after effects. the slowness
of recovery that give 1t its great danger. In
most cases, the person did not have sufficient
vitality to rally after the disease itself had
passed. The forces of nature were too weak to
contend with the debility which the Grippe had
left.
1t is sad to think how many people have died
who might have been saved If nature had been
properly assisted and fortified after the Grippe
had been driv en from the system. Many phys
iciaus realized this fact and assisted their pa
tients over the dangerous after effects by brac-
ing up and stimulating their systems. This
was and can be done in but one Way, and that
is by the steady and moderate use of som e pure
yet powerful stimulant. There is but one alb
solutely pure and medicinal st mulant known
to the profession and to the public, and that is
Dufys Pure Malt Whisky The most promi-
nent scientists and physicians of the land en-
dorse its purity and value. 1t is not new
whisky it has been before the public for years.
it is not cheap deooction. but pure distilla-
ton. 1t imparts tone to the system possible
in no other N amer and sends the blood cours-
ing through the veins with renewed vigor. II
is superior in every respect and however m uch
any INSCRIPTIONS druggist or grocer may seek
to lead you to believe to the contrary do not be
deceived

Courts

In the First district court yesterday the
case of the United States VS.. Thomas Hen
dry came up. The defendant was ar
raigned of the charge of unlawful cohabita,
tion and pleaded guilty, waived statutory
time and was sentenced to pay fine of S75
and costs.
Police court was quiet yesterday, and the
only manner in which the officials could
amuse themselves was to read the news
paper articles of the probable war with
Chill. The judge had one case, however,
which he amicably adjusted. j. j. Talbot
one of the proprietors of the Novelty thea,
ter, and l. West engaged in a little misun-
Outstanding on Thursday night and were
arrested on the charge of assault. Talbot
was fined S25 and costs and West was dis
charged.
In probate court yesterday hearing was
had on a petition asking that certain prop
erty should be parfltioned in the matter Of
the estate of Charles Beenson ct al, min
ors. An order was issued appointing Dan
iel Aamer as referee to report whether
such partition should be made.

A Lecture on Education-Coal at Wales-Per-
sOnal and General

AS per announcement in THE HERALD,
Thursday morning, DIR. Karl G. Maeser
gave an interesting and instructive lecture
in the Tabernacle here Thursday evening,
on the subject of education. A large and
appreciatlve audience assembled to listen
TO the remarks OF The veteran scioolman.
For nearly two hours the speaker held
the undivided attention of his audience,
while portraying the advantages of the
various kinds of education and their effects
upon civilization. He likened the various
forms of education TO the vegetable king
dom. Some are being used for
the benefit of mankind; the uses
OF some are not yet known, while others
are positively noxious. A man may join a
certain poliucal party because his personal
interests are to be enhanced by It's meth
DDS. Another may join certain church,
because 1t is best suited to his spiritual
faith or surroundings. But in making a
choice between educational systems we
must look above and beyond all selfish in
terests. We must look to the future vel
fare Of the people and seek to perpetuate
only that which is good.
After the lecture many of the people be-
took themselves to McCune's hall to ar
ticipate in a grand ball and supper given
by the Elders Quorum.
