Charlie Wittenberg left for Tonopah
on Thursday, In company with u. a:
Bartlett. Now Charlie is gone, and
one by one the roses fall and Eureka's
Young men depart and none come to
lake their places. The situation for
our maidens fair becomes a grave one,
the prospect OF future spinsterhood,
and many a flower left to waste its
sweetness on the desert air.
Miss Hattie Raphael has finished her
term OF school at Cleveland WHITE
Pine. and will return TO Eureka about
the ist of June. Miss Hattie has been
a successful teacher and made many
friends during her sojourn as school
marin" abroad. After visiting with
her parents during the summer Miss
Raphael intends going to San Francis
co to take course IN stenography and
typewriting, with the intention OF ad-
opting 1t as future profession.
Charlie Stinson and wife arrived from
Tonopah last Thursday. Mrs. Stinson
left for Morey on Monday, accompanied
by Mrs. A, p. Tenvoord. When Mrs.
Stinson reaches the home station she
will have completed circuit OF 800
miles. from the starting point, Morey,
and return. Mr.. Stinson intends re-
turning to Tonopah shortly with the
intention OF locating permanently, and
later on the ladies will join their hus-
bands there. Eureka loses some OF her
good people with the departure OF this
little group bound for the new fields,
and we are certain our loss will be Ton
opah's gain.
During several days OF the last week
the weather has been extremely warm,
especially In the . rly hours of the day
The seismic disturbances must have ar
fected our climate to a slight degree at
least. Some OF the Oldest inhabitants
and old timers remarked that IL was

ment extending from old Prospect to
the Diamond range was inky black and

and according to descriptions, similar to
that which has appeared in southern
California, as predicted, and attributed
to the volcanic disturbances in the
West Indies.
The young lady teachers OF the lower
departments OF the Eureka public
school deserve great credit for the
highly entertaining and pleasing pro-
gram which was given by the pupils
under their supervision last Friday al
ternoon In the school building. There
Is no doubt that our teachers spent
their time in earnest and conscientious
labor, and the children responded to
their efforts, showing good and sprigh hit
ly training, and TO say they enjoy en-
pertaining their parents and friends
does not express it. Aside from the
work given in the line of entertainment
visit to the respective departments is
satisfactory, showing that the pupils
are interested in their reading, spelling,
language and number work, and enter
with vim into the exercises thrown In
to vary the monotony of that which
Is written and printed between the COW
ers OF school books. We are pleased tc

the usual cloud hangs over Eureka 's
school prospects and it is a question as
to whether 1t will burst, or disappear
without serious results. Suffice to say
that the majority of interested parties
in the welfare OF the school, attribute
all honor to whom honor is due, but
the usual kickers combine and voice
their complaints, as did the fault find
