ABLE AS RAILROADS.
As matter of course we are more
than pleased and more appreciative
than words can express at the proposed
action Of the S. P. Co. 1t is our large
favor.
Several substantial lodges of good
ore have been found and located in
Tiger Canyon. north of Olinghouse.
They are combinations Of lodes worked
at a good profit in Olinghouse Canyon
proper, but the gully in the canyon
show that only depth is to be obtained to
insure US one of the best gold mining
camps in Nevada.
From the parties interested whom
we know have the money to carry out
the project we learn that within six
months plant will be constructed to
reduce ore from Olinghouse by water
power within town limits.
E. H., Proctor ssays there is ore
enough in sight in the various work
ings on the Ora group Of mines to
keep the new mill running steadily for
a year. The mill will start on 200
tons OF custom ore.
An average l8-inch vein Of So ore
is being opened up on the Hutchinson,
which vein pinches out at y feet from
the surface but promises continuation
along the load. Work is being done
now to outline this vein and deter
mine its extent.

ALPHA LODGE No. /, DECREE OF
Honor, A. o. U. W.. ENrERTAINs
A MULTITUDE.
Tomorrow is ST Valentines lay
All in the morning betime
And | maid at your window
To be your valentine.

| To be your valentine.
The valentine ball given by Alpha
Lodge No. |. Degree Of Honor. on
Wednesday evening in Music Hall. ex-
ceeded the expectation of the guests
and give to every attendant hours Of
the pleasure that will recur in memory
every ST. Valentines Day hereafter.
1t was the first grand ball given by the
lodge since its organization but il is
very safe to say the ladies' will have to
cater to popular demand frequently in
the future.
THE PROGRAM.
The program Of dances was dainty
affair, heart shape, well selected and
containing thirty numbers and ending
with the medley at S a. m.
THE RECEPTION.
The lodge acted as a committee Of
the whole on reception and performed
the duties with tact. pleasure and
skill, so that everybody present unite in
praise Of the work.
THE OFFICERS.
Mrs. Hattie EIDE was the efficient
floor director. past master of the art,
and the floor managers were Miss
Nellie Clay. Mrs. Viola Bridges, Miss
Josie O'Brien. Miss May Givan, Mrs.
Annie Driscoll, Mrs. Daisy Short
ane Mrs. Nellie Davis, without excep-
ton experienced in that province and
ITO whose capabilities many owe not
only entertaining dances but equal val
ued sociability.
THE MUSIC.
The music furnished by Prof. w. A.
Henrys Orchestra was in itself treat
and pronouncedy Of much merit.
Many Of the guests were not at all
backward in expressing themselves as
delighted with the selections and rendi-
tions.
THE DECORATIONS.
The decorations Of the ballroom
lent color and briiancy to the scene.
A beautiful banner draped over the
stage bore the tenets of the lodge;
"Constancy. Honor, Purity" Over the
main entrance hung huge heart ap-
propriately inscribed but the gentlemen
remarked it was symbolic of the in
splration Of Alpha Lodge in giving
their friends such pleasure. Gally
colored streamers adorned the ceiling
and walls, the whole effect of the dec
orations being added beauty to the ball
room.
THE BADGE.
A feature that aided much was the
badge worn by the members, the ros-
cites being Of pink, blue. and white,
with pendant broad purple ribbon. 1t
was not only ornamental but useful in
asmuch as strangers felt more privi-
legged te ask any necessary attention.
COT A VALENTINE.
T. w. Fitzgerald, with the assist
ance Of Mrs. Harmer Huston. won the
prize as the best gentleman Walter,
and in knightly courtesy, presented the
lady with the souvenir.
THE SUPPER.
The supper given at the new White
House restaurant was an introduction
to an institution that we have long
needed and we hope will flourish. The
spread pleased, the dining room was
neat, tasty and inviting.

this week to recuperate his health.
Father Sullivan, of Dubuque, who
was visiting the hospital last week, re
turned to his work in Eastern Iowa
Tuesday evening.
The front yard is being improved
and made more attractive by the con
struction of lattice work to the north
of the building. The fence has been
repaired in few places, this week.
Next Sunday, mass will be held in
the chapel at 8 o'clock instead of 7:3(
as heretofore. The change is for Sun.

venient for strangers who could better
attend at the later hour.

Two men were brought to the hospit
al Tuesday night, having arrived or
the 1890 Elkhorn. They were on thei,
way to the Soldiers Home hospital but
it was thought not advisable to take
them there at night as the night all
would not be benefit to them. Thei,
names are G. w. Coney, Camp Crook

Louis G. Hepner, who owns a ranch
south of town had an eye operation
performed Sunday. About eight or
ten days ago, while driving cattle, his
eye was injured by being struck with a
whip lash. After several days of Sc
we're suffering he thought professional
treatment would be the best thing, and
came to the Springs to consult with
doctors. He was placed in the hospit-
al and it was decided. unless the in
jured member was removed, total
blindness would result The operation
was performed and now Louis is SLOW
ly becoming himself again. The loss
of one of these important organs is sad
for person, and it is fortunate that
both were not lost.

This is the first license issued this

The stock men south of the cheyenne
are trying to arrange with the county
for the construction of first class
bridge over the river at the mouth of
Fall River. The ranchers will contrib
ute cash and labor if the county and
Hot Springs business men will assist.
The river at the present ford is very
uncertain and it is difficult to know
Just what will result when crossing is
attempted. If the bridge were con-
structed it would be good thing for
Hot Springs merchants and make our
city much closer to the people south
of the river. The county is willing
to help and prospects are good for the
bridge to be built. One or two bridge
builders have already made estimates
on the cost of such an enterprise and
it seems to be within reach.

Death ofotis conger.

Otis Conger, son of Charles l.. and
Mary E. Conger, aged about IL years,
died at the home of his father and
mother, near Buffalo Gap, Thursday
morning at 2:3O, of appendicitis. He
was taken sick Friday, the 18th, and
DIR. Grimm was sent for, who discover
ed symptoms Of appendicitis, but the
soreness might have been caused by q
strain the boy had received previously
from roping an animal which affected
that side and down onto the leg. Lat
er the doctor was satisfied that it was
appendicitis and on Tuesday the in
fiamation was definately located by DR..
Hargens, and on Wednesday afternoon
he was operated on by DIR. Hargens, of
Hot Springs, assisted by DIR. Grimm.
On removing the appendix one
side was found to be badly ydecomposed
and eat through, thus allowing the pus
to escape Unto the abdominal cavity.
Death was caused from the shock. In
the appendix were three pieces of
foreign substance, the largest one be-
ing about the size of small bean.
This is n severe blow to his fond
parents and his sister and brothers.
Otis was a good boy and fave rite with
his companions. The funeral will take
place today Saturday, at the house,
services being conducted by Rev. r.. II.
