LOUISVILLE, Nov. 2-Indications are that w. o. Head, the Democratic mayoralty candidate, won over Mayor James F. Grinstead, the Republican candidate for reelection, by 2,O0o. Ow- en Taylor, Citizens party candidate, received but about 1000, and George D. Todd, Independent Republican, 2G votes. The election of the entire De mocratic ticket for councilmen, muni- cipaI and county officers; is conceded by Republicans.
 But one serious clash with negroes occurred. Moses Perkins, white, was shot and instantly killed by an un- known negro, who escaped.

THE MOVING PICTURE SHOW
Popular Form of Entertainment To B,
Given In Eureka Every Week

During the Winter months Eureka is
promised some ment every Satur-
day night in the form of an up-to-date
moving picture show.
The moving picture show has become
the most popular form of entertainment
in the United States. Every town and
city Of any size has n or more moving
picture theatres, and the tremendous
demand for good subjects has brought
the art of reproducing actual scenes
and plays to a high standard of p~erfec-
ton. The moving picture itself is one of
the most remarkable OF modern inveu-
TONS, consisting as it does of a reel of
film about a thousand feet ia length and
containing upwards of IL, 600 different
photographs Of the subject shown.
These are flashed before the lens at the
rate Of 20 a second. and each individual
picture has to remain motiopless for a
fraction Of a second. The cost Of pro
ducing a single subj set is very great.
often running as high as 5000, but as
each subject is shown in thousands Of
theatres the returns warrant the ex-
pense.
The local show is under the manage
ment of Walter Y. Osborn, our new
photographer. He has had considerable
ex perience with this form OF entertain
ment and states that he will put on the
very best selection of subjects each
week that can be obtained. One of
these subjects this week. entitled "fhe
Soul Kiss" is one of the most comical
films ever made. Out of hundreds of
comic subjects it is probably the best.
aud Mr.. Osborn made an especial effort
to obtain it for the first performance.
The illustrated songs this week are
also popular and catchy airs, and one.
entitled "Have I Made a Hit with You.'
will probably make q hit with the audi
ence.
The show will star. at 1880 p. m. sharp.
This is a half hour earlier than usual.
but on account of the short days it has
been deemed advisable &c start early so
that the show will be out by $50 p. m.
The full programme will be found in
the display advertisement in another
column.

Celia Recovered Thursday

When the late Alec Celia died 1t was
generally known among his friends that
he had q diamond stud said to be worth
$500 or 5000, a diamond ring valued at
$3.50, and a gold watch reported to have
cost $3.50. After his death none OF these
valuables were found among his effects
aud the most diligent inquiry failed to
reveal their whereabouts. He had been
working at the Merialdo Hotel. and also
boarded and roomed there. The room
was searched. but the jewels could not
be found. Il was thought by a number
Of his friends that he had sent them to
bis sister in Philadelphia. However.
Thursday afternoon When Mrs. Meriaido
was making up the bed in the room Tor
msrly occupied by Celia she fell some
thing like a package inside one end OF
the mattress. and on opening it found
the missing valuables wrapped up IN
paper. The jewels were subsequently,
turned over to p. II. HUI. who has
been appointed administrators OF the

A novel sight was witnessed on Mob
Hill in the rear Of the school house Sun
day afternoon. E. & P. engine known
as No. s, being m of the big locomo-
tives of the company, was on its way to
Ruby Hill with the ore train, and on
reaching that point a bank Of snow had
drifted on the track to the depth of four
or five feet and 90 feet in length. En-
gineer Arthur pulled the throttle wide
open and plunged the locomotive into
the snowbank. Those who saw the
scene say the snow was thrown Oh either
side of the rails for at least 40 feet and
a clean cut vas made the entire dis
lance on the o~bstructed track. This
feat is considered something unusual,
as heretofore a now pillow has been put
into requisition in performing the work
done by No. s in getting through the
snowdrift.
