FROM DeLAMAR.

Inc law talent is IN attendance on
the District court at Phoebe.
Fear of being called for jury SER
vice was the main interest manifest
ed this week in the District court
sitting.
What was asked for the DeLamar
property is not known but it is sup
posed to have been about $4,000, :
10000.
Practicing and rehearsing for the
church entertainment has broken
the monotony of the week for the
young folks.
The heavy winter snow and spring
rains have put all water points in the
mountains near in good flow and
scarcity is not looked for this sum
mer.
Culverwell Bros. are erecting a
building on the south side of Lower
Main street, above the Peoples
saloon, to be used for business pur-
poses.
The DeLamar company has sew
eral thousand cords of wood in its
yards and more teams are engaged
in hauling now than at any time
heretofore.
A building was put up this week
between the Eureka lodging house
and the Justices Office on Upper
Main street. 1t will be occupied as
a law Office by Mr.. Jesse Root.
The value of a patented mine over
one held by possession only is APP
parent and is realized here, as
dozen or more claims on this and
the Helene side, are to be patented
this season.
For 'Schilling's Best" or any of
Schilling's other products, go to
Whitehead, Miles q Co. Money
back if you don't like it" is the mooto
and it's taking one. 1t means pure
goods.
Al. Thorne, who was forced to
enter the hospital as result of in
juries sustained two weeks ago from
upsetting from a wagon, is able to
be about again, and we trust will
soon regain his usual health.
The race mare attached to Nesbitt
Bros buggy ran away down Main
st. on Sunday. The turn at the low
er end was made safely and the
animal brought up between two
houses without injury to herself or
the vehicle
You must travel from home to
hear the news. 1t is rumored on the
outside that the fever has already
appeared here this season and that
four cases exist. We have not case
in town and the story is pure
fabrication.
The new machinery recently added
to the DeLamar mill fails to act as
smoothly as it might, and frequent
stoppages are the consequence ow-
ing to hot boxes, etc. The difficulty
is one common to new machinery
and will soon be remedied.
The principals and witnesses in
the Maid Queen townsite case re-
turned from Carson last Saturday,
coming as they went, overland.
They were each and all we'll Drowned
up from the 240 mile trot across the
desert, which a visit in that direction
occasions.
The theatened Indian outbreak in
the southern part of the county has
called to their homes nearly all the
men from that section working here
abouts. A number of them were
getting out wood for the April Fool
Company. They quit almost in
body and left for home last week.
Pat O'Brien is out of luck of late.
A short time ago in an accident he
lost part of finger, and on Satur-
day, through a similar accident in
the mine, lost the tip of another.
DIR. Mayo attended the wound and
Pat has concluded to quit mining for
the present and devote his attention
to the saloon business.
The DeLamar Company is throw.
ing into the mine, all the material of
the waste dump that can be got at.
Notices have beenlposted at the post
Office for the past week for contract
bids to throw in all the dump mat
erial from Tunnel No. 4, up. The
waste is needed to fill in old slopes
and thousands of tons of waste rock
have been blasted down in the mine
for this same purpose.
Evidently No Sale.
1t looks as though the DeLamar
mine and property will not immedi-
ately change ownership. The op-
ton on the property is said to have
expired on the 23rd, inst. This be-
ing the case it is not probable that
any further effort will be made this
to sell. Various rumors as
to the condition of the mine, have
been sprung. They are good, bad
and Indifferent If the best of them
are to believed however the mine is
in condition to astonish the mining
world with its output and may be
worked 'for all it is worth. The
