CHRISTMAS IN EUREKA
Trees and Exercises Christmas
Eve Followed By Festivity
and Good Cheer

Christmas trees and exercises were
held in both the Presbyterian and Epis-
copal Churches in Eureka on Christmas
Eve. Programmes made up of Christ.
mas music and Rotations were well
selected and ex~cellently rendered. At
the proper time Santa Claus made his
appearance and distributed his presents
in a most pleasing and entertaining
manner. 1t would be exceedingly diff
fcult. indeed, to convince any child in
Eureka that its behavior had not been
of the best during the past year. for
Santa Claus succeeded in finding every
one. and r%ewarding each generously
for the excellent conduct reported.
The day was generally observed as a
holiday. The weather was fine and
nearly every one took advantage of this
opportunity to get out of doors for a
few hours. Special Christmas dinners
were served at both hotels. and many
families entertained their friends in
their homes. Christmas festivity and
good cheer were the order Of the day.

Remains Of Pioneer Nevadan De-
posted in Mausoleum ct Reno
Reno journal. December 21:-Built in
memory Of a Nevada pioneer, politician
and wealthy stockman. the Cleveland
mausoleum was completed yesterday.
and the remains Of A. O. Cleveland
were placed In their receptacle. The
costly vaoit is composed Of Vermont
marble, imported for the purpose and
constructed at . cost of $40. 900.
A. @. Cleveland remains were buried
at the time OF his death, three years
ago, at Ely. Nevada. The body was
disinterred and brought here q few days
ago.
Mrs. Cleveland. the widow Of the
deceased. spared no expense in prepar-
ing the eternal resting place Of her hus-
band. The casket in which the remains
will lie is said to be the most costly evsr
purchased in this State. Is 10 rolled

was placed in the mausoleum and sealed.
The casket is air tight.

men is going On. All seem to be
satisfied to hold on until everything is
in readiness for the final breaking away
of the cloud that has 50 long ~enveloped
this section and which must 1901 depart.
By the time Spring opens, at least
five strong companies will have been
formed ready to take ore from as many
different groups of claims which have
heretofore not been opened at all.
Others will follow as soon as the pre-
liminary work eau be gotten into
proper shape for organization.
The men who are taking the lead say
they van no advertising nor exrloita-
ton. They have the goods. and are
content to wait until their stock can be
placed on the market with positive as
surance that it will be supported by the
most substantial evidence of actual
worth before asking the public to make
investments.
Probably. in the history of Nevada
no mining camp has adhered to as con-
sentative a policy as is being pursued
here at this time. Boomers, exploiters,
and ''hot air" vendors are given a wide
berth, and are wholly unwelcome in
the district, while live business men,
who really want to do business, Will
find no better field for their operations
in any part of the mining world than
can be found now right here in Eureka.

CITIZENS TO MEET LEGISLATORS
Many Important Topics Will Be
Brought Up for General
Discussion

The suggestion that the citizsns meet
the Legislators. recently made by the
Eureka County members of the Legis-
~lature. is receiving the approval of a
large number Of influential citizens who
have already expressed their intention
Of being present at this meeting, which
will be held in the Court House in Eu-
reka on Saturday evening. January 5.
Several important measures will be
brought up for discussion. Among
them are the establishment Of a State
Mining Inspection Department. a Pri-
mary Election Law. a restriction to be
placed upon the number Of mining
claims located by one person. a change
In the School Text Book Law, and other
matters of more or less general import
ance.
1t has also been suggested that it will
be a good plan for Nevada to follow the
the wise provision made in some of the
States for furnishing the members Of
the Legislature with information on the
subjects to be acted upon through a
State Bureau Of Information maintain
ed at the Capitol at State expense.
This makes it possible for the member
to get information from the best
sources without depending upon the
corporation lobbyists for it. This
system has been found TO be most bene-
fetal and satisfactory in Wisconsin,
and is being advocated in many other
States. and Is also now in active opera
ton at the Capitol in Washington.
The Board Of County Commissioners
has offered the use of the Court House
in which to hold the meeting. and a
large attendance is expected.

aud handsomely appointed places of
its kind in the State of Nevada. A
partition divides the room into two
apartments. SO and 43 feet in length,

Bright Future for Eureka District

There is q general feeling in Eureka
that something is really beginning to
move in the direction which has been
looked forward for since the mines
closed years ago. and there is very good
for this feeling. A brief survey
Of the records of the county, and a visit
to the assay offices leaves no doubt that
much is being done, but so quietly and
with such assurance that it leads one
to look a little further for proof of this
condition as an existing reality. A
trip to the hills about town gives all
that is desired in this direction.
Scarce q claim can be found upon
which the location work has not been
done, OF is now being done. and never
since the palmiest days of the camp has
the assessment work been done with
such care. Each man feels that the
day OF awakening is at hand, and for
FIXTURES in this district will be almost
unknown this year.
An abundance OF low grade ore Is
already in sight on a large number of
these recent workings. some Of which is
Of sufficient value to yield the owners
good wages while doing the develop

enger train was due to arrive at the
station. He explains that his watch
bad stopped and he ven into the sta
ton to get the time and ask for orders,
and while so engaged the passenger
train came laundering along at full
speed. Engineer Linville saw the
danger and threw on the brakes, but
could not avert the wreck. Both en-
gines are total wrecks. and several Of
the passenger coaches were thrown
