Conductor Philip Foy performed an
heroic action yesterday afternoon at

at the rate of from eight to ten miles
an hour. Mr.. Foy was on the front
platform with the motOrman, West

where the car started. a group of chill
dren Were playing on the street. and
one ofithem little boy, 3 years old, in
dresses walked on the track ahead of
the approaching car.
1t was too late to stop II in time to
prevent striking the little one. Seeing
what was to be done If the child could
he saved. Mr.. Foy crossed over the
front of the car. got down pronely on
the fender, reached out when the proper
moment came and lifted the child out
of danger, throwing him up on the
platform. The youngster is son of a
Polish storekeeper of Smithville. rejoic-
ing i'm the name of Horan. This is the
second time Mr.. FOy's presence of mind
and ready determination under similar
circumstances has prevented hap
pening that would be serious at the
least.

WHITE PINES PROTESTS.


Ernest Eek and Joseph Names. two Of
the four parties whose registration in this
county was protested last week, applied
for and were granted transfers during the
week.
The cases OF Peter schaefer and Nicolo
Ratio came up for hearing before Register
Wilson Thursday.
Governor ssdler argued in favor Of Mr..
Schaefer's registration In this county be-
ing allowed to remain, and Hon. Thomas
Robinson of White Pine opposed him,
claiming Mr.. Sohaefer was a resident Of
White Pine county and should not be
allowed TO register in Eureka county.
Register Wilson decided that Mr.. Schaefer
was entitled to vote here.
During their arguments the Governor
and Mr.. Robinson warmed up to the
occasion like professionals.
Mr.. Robinson won the decision in the
case Of Nicolo Ratio. Register Wilson de-
Gliding Mr.. Ratio had not gained a resi-.
dence In Eureka county that would entitle
his name to remain upon the register.

Editors Out OF sorts.

The expression on the faces OF Allen
Bragg, Nate Hummell and Patterson, the
Rusiler man, as they left the central
committee rooms at Carson Q few days
ago would have melted the heart Of . cob-
BILE stone. The Republican editors fully
expected that Q large wad Of Hanna's
campaign money would be placed before
them with the compliments Of the COM
mittee, but the treasurer reported dole
fully that the check had not been received
up to date. After the singing Of . short
funeral hymn, the committee adjourned.
Sill these unfortunate soribes, who
support the Mckinley outfit In the hope
OF q Hanna reward are no worse of than
the poverty-stricken silver editors. who
also get nothing for the campaign, except
the lambient-hued glory Of laboring for .
righteous cause, which 10 all intents and
purposes is better than serving the devil
in the hope OF a fee and getting left on
the home stretch. The purity Of elections
law is a mighty saving institution for the
candidates. but il produces a hollow feel
ing in the stomach Of the editor .-Carson
Appeal.

A Starch Factory.

Among the many capabilities OF Nevada
soil is the raising Of the mealiest and
whitest potatoes in America. Anyone
who has eaten the clammy California
product or the sodden product Of the East
will readily appreciate the fact that Ne
vads raises the best potatoes in America.
An analysis Of the Nevada potato has de.
veloped the fact that il contains . higher
percentage Of starch than any known
analysis Of the product from other States.
Potstoes can be raised in abundance In
Nevada in fact the black soil Of the
Humboldt and Paradise valleys is partic'
ularly adapted to potato culture. The
cost Of a factory is comparatively small,
and the process Of extracting. drying and
pulverizing the starch is very simple.
II is said that Eastern parties are con.
templating starting such Q factory In
Nevada. The department Of agriculture
10 Washington bias been giving special
attention to this industry. and among III
reports is much valuable information.
Under the present low prices Of potatoes
and under present transportation charges,
in which the railroad adjusts its rates &C
as to eat up the profit, a scientifically con
Quoted starch factory would yield n
equal OF two cents q pound for potatoes
We hope the Eastern parties will favora
bly, consider the proposition.

Items of Interest Clipped From the

The Misses Pearl and Maud Norman,

Eureka for the winter, and will attend
school there.
Mr.. @. A. Msthewson OF Hamilton will
move his family 70 White River and spend

The commencement Of work on ths
Star and Gray Eagle mines. near Cherry
Greek, through the efforts Of A. G. Cleye-
land, is . source Of great satisfaction 10
the people In this section. Cherry Greek
seems TO have . bright future. and we
hope the expectations Of ell concerned
will be fully realized.
Hamilton has, perhaps, what few towns

Nsvaaa Not I'm the Market.

The expose by the Examiner OF Hanna's
plot TO purchase the electoral vote of Ne.
vada has caused great indignation here
among al classes, says the Carson Appeal.
Rumors Of this infamous deal have been
on foot for some weeks. but the real in
side OF il was not known. 1t is a we'll
known fact that letters have been received
in this State inquiring after the political
situation, and asking IL money could be
used 10 advantage. II is also claimed
that one OF the electors has been felt of F"
to see if 1t were possible to secure the
electoral vote for Mckinley in case the
State vent Democratic. But the idea OF
this State ever delivering the electoral
vote against Bryan and silver is ridicu-
lous. II 9 Bryan elector were to sell his
vote he would be lynched If he ever sp.
peared in Nevada, and If he disappeared
the earth would not be large enough to
hold him.

FIRE.


sad Death OF Joseph BARKER In she
Burnfng Opera House Thursday
Morning.
The Eureka Opera House was discover.
ed to be on fire Thursday morning at
about 2 o'clock. The fire bells we're rung'
and II was but . few moments before
three companies were on the ground and
doing excellon. service in controlling the
flames.
The fire started in the tailoring essab-
lishmens Of Joseph Barker. better known
as Mormon Joe." The doors were
broken in. and part Of the main stairway
chopped out to give the iremen q better
chance 10 save the burning building.
They worked vslisntly for an hour and q
half. and we're finally successful.
II was generally believed on the street
that Barker was not in the tailor shop, as
II has been his habit to sleep at his home
in Goodwin Canyon, but at about A o'clock,
when the fire had been ~effectuslly checked
and the smoke had somewhat cleared
away, his body was found near the south
side Of the room in which the fire had
evidently started. He WAS in a kneeling
position with his head between the legs Of
q small table against the wall. The poor
fellow Was so badly burned as TO be almost
unacceptable, and in sll probability
must have been smothered some time be-
fore the fremen gained an entrance into
the shop. This room was broken into
Immediately on their arrival, but the
smoke was so dense that several minutes
passed before they could get q few feet
beyond the doorway, and they moved
along she opposite side Of the room from
where Barker was found, as the fire was
raging most fercely on the north side.
Joe was a quiet, kindly man, who made
no enemies.
II will probably never be known how
the fire originated. The most plausible
theory advanced is that it started from
some cbarred wood that be was seen 10
take Wednesday morning from the ash
heap lief, by the bonfire which had been
built Tuesday night in front Of the Court
house. He carried these into his shop
and they probably smouldered during the
night, and finally broke out into a blaze.
The Opera House is owned by Governor
sadler, Mrs. M. WHEEL and the Foley
estate. The Governor estimates the dam.
age to be in the neighborhood Of three
thousand dollars. An insurance has been
carried for many years, about $4,000 hay
ing been paid In premiums, but it was
allowed to run out on the LIST Of this
month, hence the owners suffer a total
loss.
The whole front OF the building is badly
damaged, and the inside of the hall burnt
md blackened by the fire and smoke. The
scenery lie also damaged.
II Ia not yet certain that it will be
repaired. as the owners have not been able
10 consult in regard to the matter.

Lake smelters 1871. $4,000 tons of tribute
and 16 $1,000 IONS company ore from the
mine. and IS $40 material from the old
furnace dump.
We nave extended IN old tunnel, that
was in 1876 feet on the west side Of the

This tunnel will enable working ground
that could not otherwise be touched,
without moving the hoist, and l expect IL

within q short time.
all the other work, as in the previous
two years, has been performed on the
tribute system.
