Sailors Are Scarce.

Good sailors are in great demand at
Columbia river ports and owners and
agents OF coastwise vessels find diff
Guilty in securing men. The increase
in railroad tariffs on lumber has been
boon to the owners of schooners and
steamers, which are kept busily en-
gagged carrying away the output of the
northern mills. There is consequently
much more work for sailors, and the
union is frequently hard pressed for
men. The union wage for coastwise
sailors is $40 a month.

On Wednesday Judge Breen received
q telegram from II. E. Driscoll, District
Attorney Of Lander County, announc.
ing the sudden death at Austin from
heart failure Of James B. Eagan, a
prominent member Of the Lander

as Mr.. Eagan had appeared as
the attorney for one of the litigants In
an important damage suit which was
concluded in the District Court ut
Austin about ten days ago. At that
time he seemed to be in the enjoyment
of robust health and manly vigor. Judge

Death of L. +. j. Wrinkle.

Professor L. F. ]. Wrinkle was found
dead in his room in the Grand Hotel at
San Francisco on March 80. He was
about 10 years of age and his death is
supposed to have been due to heart
failure. He leaves a wife and five
children living in Inyo County, Cali
fornia. In the early seventies he came
to Nevada and went to work as a min.
ing engineer. So fine was his work
and so thorough his knowledge Of min
ing that it was only a short time until
he was the leading authority on the
Comstock mines and had charge of the
engineering works Of all of the princi.
pal mines on the lode. His work there
placed his name among the leading
mining men of the West and his deci.
sion in engineering was an authority
seldom disputed. In 1900 he accepted
the position of Professor of Civil and
Mining Engineering at the Nevada Uni.
versity in Reno, resigning in 1908 to
take up his mining and engineering
work once more. Professor Wrinkle
will be remembered by many Eurekans,
having spent some time here engaged
in surveying on the Bullwhacker and
Silver Lick properties on Adams Hill
during a mining suit a few years ago.

How Do You Make Bread ?

Is a question asked by housekeepers
since George Gavin received his Uni.
versal Three Minute Bread Makers.
The Universal is q combined mixer,
kneader and raiser, simple in construc.
ton, and doing away with the old and
laborious way of making bread by
hand. The hands do not touch the
dough, which is mixed and kneaded
thoroughly in three minutes by this
machine. The dough. after kneading.
is left to rise in the pail, which, with
its cover. is peculiarly adapted to this
purpose. Call and see 1t at George
Gavin's store.
