Half an hour later Michael was de-

memory's clear. And may | be for

New y-Eureka Auto Road

Ely Record: From parties who have
recently returned from a trip over the
road between Ely and Eureka. 1t is
learned that the regular county road
from the summit of the range to Six
Mile, is practically impossible. and in
fact in a very dangerous condition. Ii
is also suggested that a much better
road can be had via Antelope by leaving
the regular road a short distance above
the Rosevear ranch and continuing via
Antelope, Newark valley, around the
Pancake range and on into Eureka. Ii
is said that this route is eight Mill
shorter than the regular road. and al
fords q much better and easier grade.
This road is not in good shape. bui
could be pat in splendid condition by
the expenditure of q few hundred dol
lars. For the present, at least, il would
be well for autoists to lake the Ante.
lope route, and it might be dvisab bic to
have the road put in permanent r-pair.
AS a matter of fact the auto travel does
not go through Hamilton anyway, and
very few machines stop at SIX Mile. as
it is an easy run from Ely to Eureka.

{. & P. RAILROAD MATTERS
Three Construction Camps Established and Over 100 Men
at Work Heavy Work in Canyon Expected to Be
Finished in Next Ten Days
Palisade, December 1.

Chadwick & Sykes, the contractors who are rebuilding the Eu-
reka & Palisade Railroad, now have over 100 men on their pay roll
and more men are being added daily to the force.
There are now three construction camps. One is located at
PaIsade, one at the Stump Ranch, about three and a half miles out,
and at the Hay Ranch, IS miles from Paisade.
The work on the bridge across Pine Creek, and on the two
bridges and treste work in the 'narrows," or Pahsade canyon, has
been somewhat delayed during the week on account OF a lack OF
bridge timbers and piling, but considerable Of this material has been
received here during the past few days and it is now expected that
the bridge across Pine Greek will be finished by tomorrow so
that the pile driver can be taken into the canyon and commence its
work there.
Besides the pile driving and the two bridges to be constructed
on the east side of this canyon, considerable blasting and grading
will be necessary, but it is figured that this work can be completed
in the next ten days. and this will finish up the heaviest and only
difficult construction work that is to be done on the whole job.
There is a short stretch of road near the Ennor Ranch that
was pretty badly washed out during the flood, and considerable
work will be necessary to repair this, but as the contractors now
have their forces we'll organized, it is not thought this piece of
work will give much trouble.
The contractors main grading force is now stationed at the
new construction camp established at the Hay Ranch this week,
and the men and teams are working 9th north and south from this
camp and throwing up the grade at a rapid rate. Another crew of
men and teams is working south from the Stump Ranch camp and
is reported to be making good progress with the grade.
When the road through the "narrows" has been completed so
outfits have finished their work, the completion of the road on to
Eureka is expected to go forward at very rapid gait The present
fine weather could not be improved on for railroad building. and if
the "beautiful' will only hold off for another couple of weeks, look
out for some record reconstruction work.

Eugene Field showed utter indiher-
ence when 1t came to being a follower
of the fashions. His clothes were al
ways neat and tidy. but they were not
made after the prevailing fashion; ne
had not consulted Worth, and this was
aconizing to at least one Of his mos
fashionable friends, named for conven'
fence Mr.. j.
One day in an offhand manner, so as
not TO be offensive to the poet, Mr.. j.
INQUIRED of him If he would wear n
suit OF clothes IL he would buy IL Tor
him. Contrary to expectations, Mr..
Field replied that he would be only too
glad to accept the suit and wear It.
In a few days Mr.. J. bad occasion
to be at jefferson ~transacting some
legal business, when he had a happy
thought. BY some means he procured
a suit of clothes made by the state Tor
one of her citizens. And the state does
not believe in changing fashions, man
ifesting a decided prediction for those
patterns that are characterized by
broad stripes. black and gray.

Every Watch Is a Compass

Most men who own a watch think
they know all about it. They have tn e
number fixed in their memory in case
it is stolen. They could probably pick
it out from 90 other watches with their
eyes shut. But how many men know
that their watch is a compass and will
tell north from south as accurately as it
will the time Of day? Stanley, the ex-
plorer, did not know it until he had
CROPPED his way through the dark con-
tinent and met a Belgian sailor on the
coast.
Every watch is o compass. If You
point the hour hand to the sun the
south is exactly half way between the
hour hand and the figures XII on the
dial. Suppose for instance. it is 4
O'Clock. Point the hand indicating the
4 to the sun and the II on the watch is
exactly south. If it is 8 o'clock point
the hand indicating s t the sun aud
the figure X on the dial is due south.
No man need get lost if he carries a
watch and can see the sun.-Exchange.

Indictments For Gambling At Elko

The Elko grand jury. which reported last Friday, found eight
for gambling The Independent says that Judge Taber
made an order that the bail in each Of these cases be increased to
$3000; that bench warrants be issued forthwith, and that the de-
PENDANTS be committed to the custody of the sheriff until the in
creased bail be given. The same order was made in a case where
two defendants were named in one Indictment
The cases in which the above orders were made are the eight
gambling cases in which indictments were found against Jack Maher,
Mark Johnson and George Forgor, who were running the games,
and two Cinnamon who were playing when Sheriff Harris raded the
games in the Commercial Hotel last Summer.
A batch of four indictments were laid aside with instructions
that bench warrants be issued on them on application of the District
Attorney These are probably against the four New Workers of the
Ocean to Ocean party who were playing at the games when the raid
was made.
