old SPORT
HAD HOT TINE
ON A PICNIC
INSTEAD OF SEVERAL HOURS
y OUTING HE STAYED ALL
NIGHT

Some one speaking of the scenery
among the Santa Cruz mountains,
started the old sport to tell story
of his former day when he attended
a picnic given at the big trees in
the Santa Cruz mountains which
ended in an all night affair for all
hands who attended.
The picnic was given by an or
ganization called the Pieuta drum
corps, and about 1000 people attend7
ed. 1t was midsummer and as the
day was hot, the heat caused the
rails to spread at sharp curve on
the side of the mountain. The en-
CINE left the track and plowed its
way over the wooden ties for about
80 feet, then toppled against the
mountain. 1t was a very lucky
thing for those aboard she did not
20 over the opposite side for below
was a deep ravine almost straight
down for distance of about 2O0
feet, and had the engine dragged
the cars after it there is no telling
how many people would have been
dashed to death. However, luck
was favorable and no one was heard
to make any kick over the six
mile walk to the grounds, after the
lucky escape.
The wreck was in bad place
for the wrecking crew to work, be-
ing in a narrow mountain cut ana
hard to get at. SO it was not until
THE next morning that the picnick-
ers were able to start homeward,
and they were forced to make an all
night celebration of their pleasure
trip. When they realized that they
must stay out all night they made
the most of it, built big log fires
and sat around and sang all the
songs on the calendar, while the
members of the drum corps made
the rounds of all the farm houses
in the district and bought all the
bread, milk, coffee and eggs to be
found. The night was warm and
balmy, while the moon shone clear
and full.
"A better time ! never had said
the narrator, "and all hands en-
tered into the fun with the best OF
spirit. The musicians, played until
everyone was tired out from dane
ing, but the singing and fun went
on around the big fires, with plenty
of hot coffee and eatables, and the
picnic went on in the best of fash
ion all night long. when the repairs
to the road had been completed and
all were glad to return to their
homes, tired. but none the worse
for their experience. and avowine
that they had had the best time
ever"

Broker Epstine, who attended the
mining congress at Goldfield in the
afternoon. The prices show no
change as they are practically what
was recorded on the closing of the
previous day. There is no price on
Pittsburg-Silve Peak, which sold at
10 cents Friday. This skyrocket
jump has been the cause of consid-
cradle comment and many rumors
concerning the settlement of the law

going the rounds.

that is not badly rusted is fine emery
powder mixed with vaseline or par
