By far the most interesting event of
the evening was the address by Ezra
Meeker, a resident of Oregon, who de-
scribes himself as 40 years young"
who has crossed the continent with an
OK team attached to a prairie schooner
in the interest of a national highway.
Mr.. Meeker crossed the plains in 1852

at this time is to awaken an interest

lowing the old Oregon trail.
He has succeeded in interesting the
members of congress in his project to
the extent that bill carrying an ap-'
preparation of $4,000 has been intro
duced. This money is to be used in
marking the trail with suitable monu-
ments and as a step towards the re-
esta blishment of the trail which was
abandoned soon after railroad building
commenced.
Mr.. Meeker arrived by rail as the
rains of last week made the roads SO
heavy that he could not reach Topeka
in time for last nights meeting had
he driven his OK team. The outfit is
now on his way to Topeka in charge
of an assistant and will probably ar
rive here some time Sunday.

MILLER WANTS
ANOTHER PULLMAN

Dr. Miller, who runs seven autos
between Schurz and Rawhide, the
new mining camp of Esmeralda coun-
ty, arrived in Reno last evening and
is today negotiating with Division
Freight and Passenger Agent E. W.
Clapp for another Pullman standard
sleeper for train No. "a. He says
that the sleeper now set out at
Schurz for the traffic to Rawhide is
not sufficient to accommodate the
travel into that district and that it
would be great accommodation to
the travelling public if two sleepers
instead of one were placed on the
night train to the south for the bene-
fit of Rawhide passengers. He also
says that the traffic between Schurz
and Rawhide is daily increasing in
stead of decreasing as people believ-
ed it would after the first excitement

yesterday handed in his resignation,
to take effect as soon as possible

his residence here Mr.. Keith has be-
come widely interested in many prop
critics in this district and, in fact,
throughout the State. With his gen.
ial manner and courteous ways, Mr..
Keith has made many friends, and
his opinions in the mining world are
eagerly sought after.

itor of the company, has been made
comptroller and will have complete
charge of the office. w. H. Black
burn will continue in charge of the
mine and A. R. Parsons in charge OF
the mill. Each will be in absolute

in the other day and deposited in one
of the Rhyolite banks 1t was in the
form of amalgam and valued at
$4,000. 1t was only a partial clean
up of the plates, however, and for
run of only few days. A COM
plete cleanup will not be made for
some time. The full capacity of the
mill is 80 tons day, and it is treat
ing now about 40, with an extraction,
the management says, of Sc per
