EUREKA TO THE FRONT

Tonopah Bonanza. July 10: Jim

They came here from Belmont yester.

Goldheld aud other points before re-
turning to their home in Bishop.
While in Eureka, Mr.. Butler had
some experiences which TO him were
amusing. but which to another might
have been very serious. Eareka has
been coming to the front of late as a
mining center, and locators have been
getting into the country in pretty thick
numbers. Mr.. Butler found that some

The other stared for a while and
then had the grace to say that he was
glad to meet father, and Jim told him
a few things about patent law aud some
other things, aud then helped him to
get off the property and showed him
where there was some more good

There is lots of good country in Eu.

anybody who wants some Of it and

BATcHELDER'S NARROW ESCAPE
A Would-Bc Assassin Fires
Three Shots at Him, But
Without Effect

Chef s. Batchelder. a former WELL
known resident Of Eureka and for many
years principal assayea at the Rich
mond refinery and afterwards connect
ed with the Schneider Drug Store, but
now living at Spokane, WASH. had a
narrow escape from death ut Colville.
IN that State.
From the Spokane Spokesman-Re-
view of July 8 we learn the following
particulars regarding the affair:
"Mr. Batchelder and a PARTY of capt.
talists from Spokane went 10 Colviile
o inspect the Pacific Portland Cement
Works. On their arrival there they
met a man by the name of F. @. Jor-
dan, who was one of the original pro-
moters of the plant, but through litiga-
ton, which was decided adversely to
his interest, he lost all he had in the
concern and was not very amicably dis
posed towards his SUCCESSORS in inter-
est. Mr.. Batchelder went as an expert
to examine the works and take samples
of the rock and clay. While they were
at the dam they were suddenly sur.
prised by the appearance of Jordan in
their midst. Batchelder spoke t him,
but he made no reply and started OF a
rapid walk towards his home.
"Mr. B~atchelder told Mr.. McNutt,
the superintendent, that he believed
Jordan was going after a gun to shoot
him (Batchelder) as he had before
threatened his life. The superintend-
emit made light Of the matter and said
he thought the fellow harmless.
"a short time afterward, while the
party was going down a trail and near
an old mill shed. bing went a 30-30
rifle, and Mr.. Batchelder says he heard
the bullet whiz close to his head. Then
another shot was fired at him and he
dropped to the ground, realizing that
was the only means he had of saving
himself. After his Intended victim
dropped Jordan with his rifle came in
view from behind a shed where he had
been secreted. aud started again ap-
parently for home.
1.-THE men continued their inspection
for three hours longer and were sitting
down by the shed resting when another
shot rang out. hitting a post just above
their heads. Then the party ran into
the mill and hid.
"The mans apparent enmity to Bat
chelder is due to a misunderstanding
they had several years ago.
Jordan was arraigned ON a charge
of an assault with a deadly weapon and
held to answer with bail fixed at $1,000"

not successful in their quest. The free
gold in this ere exists in white quartz
