The river has risen again and is
now about as high as at any time
during the present high state.
Two of the effects of few days
sojourn at Point Isabel are de-
lighfu1 tan and a good, healthy ap-
petite.
Six barrels of fish were shipped
out by express this morning.
Fishing has been rather unsuccess-
ful the past few days.
Tonight and Tuesday will be
partly cloudy, says the weather
man. There will also be probably
showers with light variable winds.
A big crowd was at Riverside
park Sunday and all seemed to en-
ioy the day. The merry-go-round
and other attractions were well
patronized.
a large party of northern pros
pectors arrived III the city Satur-
day afternoon, and spent Sunday
at Point Isabel. They are very
much impressed with this section,
and left for home this morning ex-
pecting to return in couple Of
weeks.
A real estate deal involving H.
600 acres of land, was consummat-
ed Saturday, John and Chas. Cham
pion, of Point Isabel, purchasing
the San Martin tract at the mouth
of the Rio Grande, from Jose and
S. Fernandez. The consideration
was S1.25 per acre.
Quite a number of visitors and
good sprinkling of Brownsville
people visited Matamoros Sunday
evening, the attraction being an
open air band concert at the Hidal-
90 plaza. The crowd enjoyed the
music very much, and the visitors
found many things to make the
time pass pleasantly.
H. G. Stilwell brought in some
fine Malaga grapes this morning
which were grown by him on P.
Z. Blalack' place two miles from
town. They are a California
grape, and the beauty about them
is they ripen here in July, while
in California they are not on the
market before fall. They are large,
white grapes and well favored. A
HERALD man had a sample this
morning and can testify to their
being very palatable.
a naturalist or entomalogist
from Chicago, named Wolcott, ar
rived in our city Saturday after
neon and will spend a few day in
Brownsville and vicinity securing
specimens which are peculiar to
this section. He went to the Point
Sunday morning and spent most
of the day in looking for specimens
in that locality, and found several
interesting subjects. He will go
down to La Esperanza ranch in a
day or two to see what he can find
in that section.
Elsewhere in this issue will be
found the advertisement OF the
Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege. This institution is doing a
great work for the people of the
state; not merely in educating their
sons along industrial and techno-
logical lines, but also for the
farmers, stocFmen, fruit and truck
growers, and others actually en-
gagged, at the present time, in the
development of the states great
resources. The moral tone of the
institution has been so much i'm

NO RAISE IN THE
PRICES
EILERs' MUSIC COMPANY OF SAN
FRANCISCO GIVE
The People Of Winnemucca the Ben
eft Of Their Demonstration
Sale Of Hight Grade Pianos.

so many inquiries have been receiv-
ed by us relative to our demonstra-
tion sale of high grade pianos, that
we have extended our sale to this point
and have instructed Mr.. Werner to
give the same reductions until the 25th
Of December, that we are offer
ing in San Francisco. Until the advent
of the Eilers Music Company into the
piano business of the Pacific coast, it
was impossible to buy good pianos un-
less one paid an enormous price. We
have radically changed this and have
the combination of high price gettcrs on
the run. Eilers methods of buying in
train-load lots saves enormous freight
charges and we are selling highgrads
pianos at the same prices that you
formerly had to pay for medium grade
goods.
The wonderful Auto piano, the ia
nous Hazelton, the eet-toned Kim
ball, the original Decker & Son (not
the Decker Bros.), the beautiful Bailey
and host of others are now offered
during our Demonstration Sale a great
deal below the actual value. You don t
have to pay cash unless you want to. A
small payment down and eight or ten
dollars a month is satisfactory.
We have here in Winnemucca a
Chickering square piano and New
man square piano. We want to clean
these instruments out; take the Chick
ering at $500 and the Newman
square at $6S, cash or easy terms. Our
Mr.. H. J. Werner will arrive shortly.
All mail relative to the sale should be
addressed to him in care Of the Lafay-
ette hotel.
Remember when you deal with Eli
ers you deal with concern of absc-
lutte fairness in dealing, and you have
the satisfaction of knowing that at any
time your piano is not satisfactory
we stand prepared to make the same 30
at once or replace it with a new one.
There is nothing nicer in the world
for a Christmas present for your wife
or daughter than beautiful piano.
A few dollars down and few cents
each day gets one.

Big PLANS FOR THE
SHEBA
THE CONSTRUCTION OF AERIAL
TRAMWAY.
Two Miles In Length, and q Hundred
Ton Huntington Roller Mill
~ Proposed.

A. II. Floeter, superintendent Of the
Sheba Gold and Silver Mining Com
pany, arrived from Mill City with his
wife and family yesterday morning
He said this morning that plans had
been submitted to the company for a
large amount of construction work
which, II adopted, would enable the
sheba mine to producee three or four
times its present capacity.
Chief among the plans for the pro-
posed construction work are those for
an aerial tramway to transport the
ore from the mine to the mill, two
miles below. If this tramway is built
according to plans now in the hands Of
the company it will be one of few
similar mining devices in the state.
Plans have also been submitted for
the construction OF 100-ton mill of
the Huntington type. This stupendous
construction work, IL accomplished,
will make the Sheba easily the best
equipped plant for mining in the state

ROAD FROM MINNEMUCCA TO ROSEBUD

into the best route for the road and to
work with similar committee from
the citizens of Rosebud.
The distance from Winnemucca TO
Rosebud is about SIS miles. Along a
road leading this distance two stations
would be necessary. An old place
known as "Dutchman g Well,' about
twenty miles south of Winnemucca
will serve as one station. 1t will be
necessary to provide for second sta
tion midway between "Dutchman g
Well' and Rosebud. At this point a
well will be dug. The contour of the
country is comparatively level and the
construction of the road will not in
volve a great expenditure Of money.
Since the plan to build this road as
sumed definite proportions there have
been several of our citizens, noted for
carrying the little hammer, who are
welding their instruments on this as
they do on other propositions in the in
tcrests of progress. 1t is felt that such
action should be ignored, and that the
road is a necessity if Winnemucca is
to compete with other towns of less
Importance.

MINERS TO DEMAND INCREASE
r.. IN PAT,

GOLDFIELD, New, Dee. 12.--It 10
stated here that the Miners Union
has decided to ask for an increase in
wages for all miners. The wages now
range from $3.50 to $500 per day, and
the miners will now demand that they
be paid from $3.50 to $500.
1t is not known just what stand the
mine owners will take in regard to the
demand, but as all the leases are
now being worked to the limit in or-
der TO extract as much ore as possible
before January l, when many of the
leases run out, the miners claim that
the mine.owneFs and leascrs cannot
afford to deny their demand.

ca yesterday and briefly interviewed
the different business men on the pro-
Ject. The result was surprising, for the
men of WiDnemucca asked only what
was expected of each respectively and
signed for the amount. With more
business men yet to be seen and with
the assurance that if funds run short
more can be secured, the subscribed
amount is over $1,000. When all is
subscribed Winnemucca will put $2500
into the new road. It is understood that
Rosebud is subscribing to the fund
similarly and one of the best roads N
the state will soon stretch southwest
erly from this point to what is soon
to be one of the greatest mining camps
in the state.

which is a terror to Lancg ster's
horses and mules. AS many as
three runaways otcurrtd in
town last Saturday afternoon,
on account of. the machire. Ii
frightened Mr.. Lester Nelson's
mule, causing the animal to run
off, upsetting the buggy near
Mr.. l.. @. Payseur's residence
Mr.. Nelson and his young broth
er, who was riding with him
were thrown violently to the
ground and the top of the buggy
broken off. Fortunately, the oc-
cupants of the vehicle escaped
serious injury. A mule hitched
to wagon, being driven by a
son of Mr.. Bob Wheeler, of
Jones Cross Roads, ran away on
Main street. The lad was thrown
out by the wagon striking the
corner of a building. Mr.. Robt
Pardue's team also ran off in
town. His wagon was upset and
badly damaged.
1t We mistake not the last
legislature passed an act regula
ting the use of automobiles and
similar machines on public
highway and it is likely that
such law includes motor bicy
cles.
