For the meeting of the National Ed
vocational Association at Buffalo in
1896 the excellent service given by the
Union Pacific was commented on by all
those who had the pleasure of using
that line. This year our educational
friends meet in Milwaukee, Wis, July
9th to 9th, and members of the associa-
ton and others from points west of
the Missouri river, should by all means
take the Union Pacific.
The service of the Union Pacific via
Omaha or Kansas City is the very best.
The equipment consists of handsome
day coaches, chair cars, Pullman buffet
and drawing room sleepers, dining cars
and buffet smoking and library cars.
Fewer changes than via any other line.
One fare, plus $3.50 for the round trip
will be the rate from Ill points west of
the Missouri river for this meeting

The new electric mill plant was start
ed upon Monday, but only two of the
ten tanks have been run at any one
time. This has been done to thorough
ly test each separate tank before work
ing them all and as everything has been
found, so far, to work very satisfactor-
lily, they will all be running from this
time on. The NUGGET hopes to be
able to report satisfactory results as
often as cleanup is made as this new
process now promises to do for Owy-
hee ores what the older cyanide pro-
cess has accomplished in so many other
mining districts.

One lady upon DeLamar mountain
who rides upon horseback great deal,
and who can manage a spirited horse
with grace and skill, though she lays
no claim to being a "new woman" has
had the courage and good sense to
adopt the new woman's style in horse
back riding and now dons neat bloom
er outfit and rides upon her husbands
saddle. She says she was little timid
about riding through town the first
time, on account of the fear of the at
tention she would attract, but now she
don't mind it little bit, and as she
feels so much more secure upon her
horse and rides with so much more
comfort, she will never have any fur
ther use for side saddle.

JONES Doherty pulled out yesterday
for the Pueblo mountains, near the Or
egon-Nevada line, taking with him a
prospector's outfit and a summers
supply of grub. He proposes to stay
until fall, but we are liable to see Jim
back here within a few weeks with
load of specimens which will start a
boom for that new region from which
fiattering reports have been cunning
for the past year. Doherty has found
number of good mines in his time
and can size up the value of prospect
as well as any one in the camp. We
all wish him the biggest kind of luck.

FIRE.
Larson Hotel ani Adjoining Buildings
Burned.

At an early hour yesterday morning
the Lamon hotel and a number OF
small buildings which were located
ON either side of it, were burned t.
the ground. The estimated loss i,
about s 1900, with but little insur,
anCc.
The heaviest losers are Mr.. NJ. c.
Lamon, lessee of the hotel, Mr.. W. G..
Dunlap, who resided next door. Mr..
McAlliStcr, who kept a store and
Mamie Guilds, who lost a grocery
stock. Mr.. Lamon had recently taken
out a small amount Of insurance on
his furniture, but not sufficient to
cover the loss. The hotel building
was owned by Mr.. 5. l.. Arnold, and
was not insured.
The fire started about 4 O'Clock in
the morning. and the alarm was gwen
by Mr.. II. X. Johnson, who saw Il
dense smoke pouring from one of the
windows Of the hotel. The Slumbcr-
ing occupants Of the building were
quickly aroused and the work Of car
rying out the furniture was immedi-
atcly commenced.
Had there been more system about
this work OF rescue a great deal more
would have been saved. But in the
excitement a great deal Of furniture
was carried from the building and
placed but Il short distance from the
fire. which. becoming i~icrCcr, soon
reached these articles and destroyed
them. The buildings were all frame
and blrnCd very rapidly.
Mr.. McAllistcrand other occupants
Of his house cndcayOrcd to cXtinguish
the fire and thereby lost a great deal
Of furniture that might Otherwise
have been saved. As soon rs the
alarm had spread people throngcd to
the scene. and many willing hands
assisted in the work of rescue. Many
attempts to save the building were
prevented by the heat, which was
%sufrocating. After it had become too
hot to enter the burning buildings
the occupants were obliged to stand
back and see their possessions 20 mp in
smoke. Mr.. Lamnn has our >ympa-
thy for his loss. He is II " the
most genial men in the country. and
his friends are legion.
The work of this fire cannot but
set us to thinking of the value OF
water works. and it is to be hoped
that before any more damage may be
done by fire the plant will be coln.
Melted.

Two OF Our Citizens Who Deserve

Nothing succeeds like success is
a well-worn old saw, and perhaps
should he laid on the shelf, but we
cannot help using the expression Al
times, especially when we see the
honest efforts of a public spirited
man or company when directed
towards the improvement of their
fellow man and the community in
which they reside crowned with sue
cess. Greenwood is indeed fortunate
in numbering among its residents
such business and professional men,
and that the state is approaching
their effort To make Greenwood one
Of the finest cities in the south, is
demonstrated by the many rompli-
mentary press comments which ale
going the rounds.
The merchants of IA city are its
back bone, and the beauty of a city

their places Of business. \ hand
