Fortunate Escape From Injury

E. O. Boston. who has been saving
wood with his portable wood saving
machine for Angelo Florio at the Wind
fall mine, having finished the work
Thursday. started to haul it to town
that afternoon. After proceeding some
distance one of the iron wheels broke,
which compelled Mr.. Boston to leave
the machine at the side of the road
where it was disabled.
To protect the gasoline engine from
the weather he threw a canvas cover
over it. About 2 o'clock Friday MORN
ing, as Will L~onfbourrow end William
Holder employees at the Windfall mine,
were returning to town from work on
horseback, on reaching the place where
the machine had been left, the horse
that Holder was riding SHE'D and fell
into a gully at the side of the road,
%pinioning the rider underneath in such
a manner that be was unable to extri.
cate himself. 1~Ioufbourrow dismounted
and came to his assistance and succeed
ed in getting him from under tho
animal.
The most singular, as we'll as for.
tunate thing about the occurrence was,
that Mr.. Holder sustained no injury as
a result OF the accident.

Conditions Here Improving

Last Monday, June 5, was the pay
day of the Windfall Mining Company.
With the 65 men now employ ed at the
Wlndfall and those in the employ OF the
Farmers Mining Company and in other
mines OF the district. there are about
100 men at present at work in this sec
ton. The money put in circulation
here by these different companies has
been the means Of creating a better and
more hopeful feeling among the people
Of this community than has been expert
enced in the past year..
This feeling is still further augmented
by the belief that it is now only a mat
ter Of a short time when the work OF
the reconstruction Of the Eureka q
Palisade Railroad will be begun. and
business and industrial affairs assume
the condition that prevailed here prior
to the washing ont Of the railway about
Q year ago.

Fred Har', editor and reporter Of the

FRIDAY NIGHTS ENTERTAINMENT
Operetta and Farce Give Enjoyment to
Large and Appreciative Audience

The dramatic and musical entertain
mem at the Opera House Friday evening
for the benefit Of the Presbyterian Sum
day School drew a large audience, whose
pleasure was expressed by frequent and
general applause.
The one-act farce. The Troubles OF
An Inventor" presented by the Eureka
Amateur Dramatic Company. was hui
morous and we'll sustained by the men,
bers Of the younger set OF Eureka's young
people, who, under the direction Of Mrs.
T. A. Burdick, are getting into line to
work up some OF the better dramatic
plays.
The operetta, 1.-THE Isle Of Jewels"
rendered by the children Of the Presby-
terrain Sunday School. was made up Of
bright and pleasing musical numbers.
and considering the fact that most Of
those taking part were young children
with childish voices, the choruses and
solo parts we're sung in good time and
with musical rythm. This line OF work
with the young often brings but some
good talent, as has been demonstrated
in the recent entertainments given in
Eureka, and should be encouraged.
The two vocal solos rendered. "For
All Eternity" by Mrs. 6. L. Kaeding,
aud meet Me Tonight In Dream
land," by Raymond Swick,. received
merited applause.
The Lobster Club Orchestra in their
selections rendered during the entertain.
ment, and in the dance that followed.
contributed much to the pleasure Of the
evening.
The ladies Of the church served coffee
and sandwiches and ice cream and cake
to a large number of people in the rooms
up stairs in the Opera House building,
and a substantial sum will be realized
from the receipts OF the entertainment
for the benefit of the Presbyterian SUM-
day School.

Frank Byrne, Fish and Game
Warden, presented bond In the sum Of
$1,000. with the requisite number of
sureties. which was approved by the
Board.
On motion the Board ordered that J..
@. L,tta. heretofore appointed Justice
Of the Peace Of Beowswe township, be

which to file his bond.
A communication was received by the
Board from Mrs. A. p. Tenvoord tend

gust 1, 1911. On motion the resigna-
ton was accepted.

School Close. For Summer Vacation

Friday the Eureka County High
School and public school were closed for
the term. No exercises were held.
The pupils will now have a vacation
covering q period of about three months
until the first Monday in Septembe Vel
next.
The Eureka sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1902-current, 1911-06-10

At the session Of the Legislature Of
1909 a law was enacted requiring
counties to pay the premium IN a surety
bond for the treasurers Of their respec-
tive counties. Subsequent to this Act
another law was enacted relating to
surety companies. which the latter re.
fused to comply with and ceased doing
any business in this State.
One year ago the Board authorized
the Treasurer to secure a burglars
insurance for the sun of $50. 900, and
the county paid the premium on the
same. thinking that as there was no
means Of securing a surety bond, the
burglars insurance would be a great
protection to the county and to the
Treasurer's bondsmen-thirty thous-
and dollars being estimated as about
the greatest amount that would be in
the hands of the Treasurer at any time.
In discussing the matter Of a surety
bond for the Treasurer q month ago the
question arose whether under a surety
bond the county was protected against
burglary. and the Clerk of the Board
was requested to write the insurance com
pany and find out. The compaDyanswered
that the surety bond did not insure the
county against burglary. or where the
money was taken from the Treasurer
by force. the surety bond only being re-
sponsible for the true and faithful per-
Torrance of the duties appertaining to
his office by the Treasurer-the same as
a bond given any other county official
Under these circumstance the Board
deemed that it would be for the best
interests Of the county to insure the
money the same as any other county
property.
The Board adjourned to June IL.
