CANNOT LOCATE
MYSTERIOUS STRANGER
Former Eureka Lady Annoyed by
Unknown Suitor Who Calls
Up Daily On Phone

The San Francisco Examiner of
March 80 contains the following article
which is of a very mysterious character.
The lady referred to is Mrs. John 7.
Wheeler, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
James G. Ford. formerly of Eureka but
now of Tonopah:
The Berkeley, California. police de-
partment and the detective force of the
Pacific States Telegraph and Telephone
Company are seeking a persistent but
elusive stranger who for the past three
weeks has been prosecuting the guests
Of the Alta Vista apartment house, at
the northeast corner of Bancroft way
and Telegraph avenue. by constant
calls on the telephone. One of the par.
ticular objects of this Telephone
Toms" attention Is Mrs. John Wheeler.
wife Of a prominent attorney and mine
owner of Tonopah, Nevada, who has
been spending the Winter in the Col
lege town. a leading figure in Berkeley
and Oakland society, who came to the
bay region to attend the Christmas fes-
t%ivities at Mills College. of which she is
a gr aduate.
For nearly q month Mrs. Wheeler has
been annoyed by this unknown mans
attempts TO engage her in conversation
over the wire. At times the Alta Vista
exchange has been asked to connect
with her apartments. as many as a
dozen times a day. Other guests have
been pestered similarly. The man ap-
parently goes from place to place to
avoid detection, The Investigations of
the telephone detectives show that
sometimes the call has been from out.
side towns-from San Jose. from San
Rafael, Napa and intermediate points,
Frequently the call is from San Fran
cisco. more frequently from Oakland,
but it is a regular source of vexation on
the Berkeley wires.
Mrs. Wheeler says that she has never
seen her telephone admirer to her
knowledge. The police believed they
hal run down the stranger in an in
dividual who was complained Of as
annoying Berkeley women coming and
going on the Key Route trains and
boats, but Mrs. Wheeler siys she does
not remember any stranger attempting
to force his attentions on her."
II believe the fellow is a crank"
said Mrs. Wheeler. 1T is true that he
seems to have singled me out for a good
deal of his telephone attention, but the
strange part of it ia that we have never
been able to get sight of him. or locate
him. Notwithstanding that the detec-
tives have been called in to help us.
One night recently we thought we had
him. He called me up on the tele-
phone. aud / agreed to see him in the
Office of the Alta Vista. Mrs. Piver.
the manager OF the house, was with
me. aud. thinking that the man would
keep his word We sent a message to the
Berkeley police. The man evidently
knew what we had done, for while the
detectives put in All appearance in a
few minutes, our telephone pest rang MS
up shortly afterwards and told us that
we had called the police and inquired
what was our object.
II never remember to have been
ogled or prosecuted by anybody on the
ferries or street cars, and l car only be.
lieve that this persistent telephone
caller is a crank. know he is a pest"

RICH ORE STRIKE NEAR HAMILTON
Phil Paroni Of Eureka One Of the
Lucky Owners In Rich Find

Que Of the most important lead silver
strikes ever opened mp in Nevada wa
made last week in the Julia No. . mine.
situated on the west slope Of Treasure
Hill, about two miles south Of Hamil-
ton. in White Pine County. The own
ers are Phil PAroni Of Eureka. John
Cindrelh and d. Ferrovini Of Hamilton.
The discovery was made ct the breast
of . 1856 foot tunnel. which has taken .
years work for two men to complete.
In conversation with Phil PAroni this
week regarding the recent strike the
following particulars regarding the
mine were obtained:
my partners and / have owned the
property for the past four or Eve years.
We have two claims, the Julia Nos. 1
and2. It was on the latter whore the
ledge was cut recently. l am informed
the vein as exposed mp to date has been
cut ten feet across from wall to wall.
showing Q solid body Of high grade ore
that will run 90 PER cent lead and 20
ounces in silver per ton.
Il also learn that one man is taking
out Eve toni Of this high grade lead
silver Gre every shift Of eight hours, and
enough Of this ore has been piled on the
dump in the last week to pay for the
whole years work in driving the tunnel.
THE location of the property where
this late strike was made is Of more inn
portance than would appear on the sur
face to those unacquainted with the
country. The fact that these claims are
on Treasure Hill, near the Eberhardt
and Aurora mines, where several mil.
lion dollars worth Of silver ore was
taken out in 1868 aud 80 that averaged
nearly 80 per . q in that metal. and
was the cause Of The great White Pine
excitement. strengthens the belief that
fabulously rich silver ore bodies will be
found in that section as soon ~ depth
is attained"
