THE KEY is IN THE LOCK
United States Mining and Smelling Company Will Open ecu
reka's Golden ~Tomb"-Acquires Eureka Con. and Richmond
Properties and Orders the Eureka & Palisade to Rebuild
the Railroad to the Mines on Ruby Hill.

The news this week from Supt. G. d.
Abbott Of the Eureka & Palisade Rail.
way goes far to confirm the opinion
that only a little more time is needed
to see Eureka a live. hustling camp
again.
MIR. Abbott came up from Palisade
Wednesday and when asked by a SEN.
TINEL representative what news he had
to offer. he said
81 presume you refer particularly to
the transfer of the Eureka Con. and
Richmond properties" and when such
was signified, he continued I:
"The best news / can tell you is that
l have been given orders to go ahead
and build the railroad from Eureka to
Ruby Hill and finish it as quickly as
possible"
When further questioned Mr.. Abbott
said other matters would be made public
as 0 o as the details were arranged.
The people of Eureka and Ruby Hill
who have been waiting for several
weeks to know if the United States Min
ing and Smelling Company had taken
over the Ruby Hill Mines and the En-.
reka Stag dumps, will realize from Mr..
Abbott's statement that the transfer
has been made.
Finds Favor With the People Here.
1t has been q matter of qualification
to all observers that the new company
has prosecuted its work of investigation
in a very thorough and systematic man
ner, and the absence of the "wild cat
ters'" methods inspired a confidence in
the community that the URited States
Company was after the properties for
legitimate mining development if the
m~ineralogy proved to be what was
wanted.
1t is accepted as a fact that the
United States people have found a valu-
able fluxing investment in the big Stag
dumps in Eureka alone and Furthermore
that the reports of the experts e here
to explore and sample the lower levels
of the mines on Ruby Hill have justi-
fed the company in deciding that the
old Base Range offers them judicious
investment in big paying mines, along
with being the treasury house of the
.iuxing ores. for which there is a greater
demand at the smelters than at no
other time in the history of mining.
In a word, the United States Mining
and Smelling Company has the key in

VALUABLE MINING
PROPERTY LOCATED
United States Company Posts
Notices on Albion Group of
Mines-Thought For Years to
Be Patented Ground.

A decided sensation was sprung in
Eureka and ON Ruby Hill this week
when notices of location were posted on
mining property Oh Ruby Hill that for
years has been considered by the people
here as patented ground.
The property involved is known as
the Albion group of mines, adjoining the
Richmond group OF mines. aud was ac-
CURED by the Richmond Company after
long and costly litigation.
From what the SENTINEL can learn
the Richmond Company years ago
made application Tor a United States
patent. but late developments make it
appear that the Richmond title to the
Albion group was not protected by a
patent, IL never having been issued. and
it is contended hat the property has
been re-locatable for years, inasmuch as
the annual assessment work was not
done. IL Is also maintained that the
work that has been done on the
Richmond claims-contiguous claims
amply protected the Albion group.
Whatever may be the law in the case,
it is evident to every one that the United
States Company was not willing to take
any chances on having the Albion
ground jumped and it has located the
property, under the names Of the
Marriage, Bridegroom and Accouche.
ment claims, A. +. Holden, general
manager OF the United States Company
being the locator.
A SENTINEL representative called on
j. Fewson smith of the United States
Company in Eureka. and asked him to
make a statement concerning the action
of his company in jumping patented
ground on Ruby Hill. as the locating OF
these claims was thought to be by
many. Mr.. Smith said:
"That various mining claims on
Ruby Hill surveyed for patent have
been jumped is not any cause for either
| surprise or concern to me. The claims
might have been patented long ago, but
| since they were members of a CONSOLE
dated group of contiguous claims upon
which work has been prosecuted each
| year during the last 20 years, IL was
never necessary that they should be
patented. And inasmuch as the vacant
ground which could have been covered
has now been located by the interested
company. there is not much left for o
first. class boom in the jumpers line"

mob HILL FIRE COMPANY.
Old Company ReOrganized and Of
ticers Elected for Ensuing Term.

Oiu SdIliLtu anu VI
ticers Elected for Ensuing Term.
The Mob Hill Fire Company has been
r~eorganized and Eureka now has an
other active company ready to render
organized assistance in fighting fires.
The Mob Hill Company has not held
a meeting in ten years until recently,
when it was found that all its men,
bers have gone from Eureka except
Spencer Reynolds, and the reorganized
company has honored him by electing
him President.
The Mob Hill company was organized
to especially guard the western part of
town. 1t is a fact worthy of mention
that Mob Hill has been singularly pre-.
served from fire. but in view of a recent
misfortune when the members of the
house barely escaped with their lives,
the property owners and residents de-
cided they should have an active CON-
pany in their midst.
The Board of County Commissioners
about W years ago almost rebuilt the
Mob Hill fire house. which was in a de-
lapitated condition and had placed
therein 500 feet of new hose. With
very little cost the fire house can be
made cosy and comfortable. Speaking
of the reorganized company a few days
ago, a member said:
mo II attaches any blame to the
fire company for the damage done by
the recent fire. The distance of the fire
plugs from the fire. the long uphill pull
with the hose cart and other circum.
stances were hardships on the boys who
did heroic work. but the people OH the
hill feel they ought to have a visible
and active company in the western part
of town. Although most of the men,
bers affiliate with the Rescue Company.
it is hoped another organization will
not be q hardship. We are not selfish,
as all iremen are in a common cause" "
AT a meeting Monday night the Mob
Hill Company elected the following Of.
icers: President. Spencer Reynolds;
Vice President, DIR. w. F. Burnett;
Secretary, ]. ]. Lucey; Foreman,
William Harris; Assistant Foreman,
Harry Fine; Second Assistant, Thomas
Hicks; Treasurer. Peter Lob; Trustees,
William Leighton. William Stewart.
William Mau.
A committee OF three was appointed
to see to the wants Of the company.
Meetings will held on the first Monday
of each month.

Tomb"
A. T. Mayberry Will Be in Charge.
The SENTINEL learns that A. P. May.
berry will arrive In Eureka about the
middle Of November. Mr.. Mayberry ID
at present in charge of the United
States Mining Company's property at
Bingham, Utah, and it is surmised that
his mission here is to take charge of
operations on Ruby Hill.
Mr.. Mayberry is a man of varied and
extensive mining experience and has
been very successful in developing the
Bingham properties. He began his
mining career in Nevada about twenty
years ago. He is comparatively a
young man yet and the utmost conf.
dence is entertained for him by those
who have been brought into business
contact with him. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Mayberry is to be here per-
manently and that his family will ac-
company him to Eureka.
Work on Road Progressing.
The Ruby Hill Railroad is now in
course of construction and will be hur-
ried to completion. The graders have
reached the Ruby Hill wagon road, a
mile and a half from the Eureka & Pail.
SADIE switch. The force has been in.
creased and the company is hiring all
the men it car get. The scrapers,
plows and teams were put to work
Thursday. Timbers have arrived for
the trestle hat runs through the
old Eureka Con. works in Eureka,
and on Wednesday q force of men be-
gan putting in the foundation for the
trestle. Charles Rand, head carpenter
for the E. & p, is in charge of the
work. He brought some men up from
Palisade with him and hired more in
Eureka.
At the mines on Ruby Hin work con-
tinues and men are being added as fast
as the company can use them. The
work of sampling the Eureka Con. Stag
dump IN Eureka. was finished several
days ago.
About town, business is on the up
grade and property owners every where
are making improvements and getting
their empty houses ready for tenants.
IL will be no secret for the SENTINEL to
print that everybody is feeling good and
that conditions are of a highly salts.
