DAMAGE AT EUREKA.
Town Filled With Mud and Debris,
nut Damage Not Serions.

IoWn FILLED With Mud and Debris,
Bat Damage Not Serious.
Wild and garbled reports of the dam
age done at Eureka by the cloudburst
on Tuesday prevailed yesterday, but
from a careful investigation the havoc
wrought was not so serious as report
ed by some sensationalists, who claim
ed to have the inside of the matter.
While the water washed out consider
able Of the improvements in the lower
portion of the town, the loss is not
such as will warrant any such state
ments as have been made.
Eureka is a town with too much
elasticity and enterprise to allow a
matter of this kind to cripple it, and
the good people down there do not ap-
prove of any rumors which have no
foundation to them being circulated.
The Bullion-Beck mine was not dam
aged at all, save by a little overflow
cause of any delay, while the Centen-
nial-Eureka can deplore nothing save
the rush of torrent of mud and water
into the dining room, which covered
the floor to considerable depth, but
which was cleaned out yesterday. The
Gemini shaft was damaged slightly by
rush of water.
Over at Mammoth the grade of the
East Tintic road was washed out in
a few places, but the damage will be
repaired in a short time.
While the loss of life is to be re-
GREETED, the circulation of sensational
stories is to be deplored.

Ex-President of Peru Gives an In

Ex-President of Peru Gives an In
terview to the Press
NEW YORK, July 15.-A special to
the Herald from Buenos Ayres says:
General Caceres, formerly president
of Peru, has just given an interview to
the press. Pierola, he says, has acted
strangely in imprisoning persons merely
on suspicion that a revolution was
about to be attempted Pierola's first
act, Caceres says, was to proclaim that
his administration would be one of
peace, and general amnesty would be
granted to all who had offended the
republic.
A revolutionary conspiracy had only
existed in Pierola's mind, said the eX-
president Arrests were resorted to as
an act of vengeance against Caceres
and his friends. Since Pierola took
office, the laws and constitution of
Peru had been stifed, and if compro-
missing letters had been found bearing
his signature, that signature was a
forgery and a. strong proof that Pier
oa3s adms ndstration Was tamoering
with the mails.
said Caceres, were certainly likely to
incite rebellious feelings in the minds
of citizens, especially as the military
chiefs had imprisoned the very per-
sons upon whom Pierola had counted
for support.
In conclusion Caceres said that from
the outset he condemned the revolu-
ton in Iquitos.

SOLD IT'S STORE.
BuIIionTBeck Goes Out of the Mer-
camille BUSINESS.


A big deal was recently consummat-
ed, by which the Bullion-Beck company
will not do a general store business
any longer. Very recently its general
store at Eureka was disposed of to
the Emery Mercantile company, OF
which William Paxton of Nephi
is one of the heaviest stock
holders, and a force of clerks
yesterday began the taking of stock. Il
is not known what the price paid was
and probably no information will be
given out until after this work is COM
pleted
The store has been a source of trouble
to the management for some time. The
men engaged at work on the property
objected to being virtually compelled
to take orders on the institution and be
forced to trade there when they believed
they could do better at some other
place, but whether this had anything
to do with the sale or not is not known
This sale does away with the last
vestige of company stores in this state,
with the exception of the Horn Silver
mine at Frisco, which still maintains
an institution there 1t was a fine insti-
tuition, the Bullion-Beck store, and car
ried a large stock. Very recently a
two story brick building was erected
for the accommodation of the business,
and everything was in good shape TO
sell when the deal took place.
The Bullion-Beck is looking we'll and
parties who have visited it the last few
days say it never looked better. The
cloudburst did no damage to speak of,
in fact, as far as that is concerned, it
would be well to say no damage at all.

Tuesday evening complimentary to her
guest, Miss Rose of Mississippi The
Range homestead is two miles from the
city, and is most beautiful and de-
lightful country home, and on this oc-

picturesqueness. The large lawn was
brilliantly lighted by Chinese lanterns
which were suspended from every CON
ceivable place. The delightful harm
ony of air and woodland and the music
of the little romantic stream as it went
so merrily and coquetishly by mingled
with the melody of happy voices from
the lawn made it very charming place
to be. Miss Range entertains with
dignity and ease and proved herself to
be quite an artist in planning and con-
structing so many original features for
the pleasure of her numerous guests.
Refreshments were served on tables
placed upon the lawn which were most
artistically decorated with the choicest
of flowers.
