claims covering loss and damage to
freight received at Palisade. when the
amount of loss or damage does not ex-

AS fully 80 per CEN of the claims are

settle all but a small per tent of claims
at time delivery of freight is made.
This will also take considerable work
off the freight claim department. in San

action on the larger claims.
The wish of the management is to
settle all claims with the public
promptly.

TELEGRAPH SERVICE FOR EUREKA
Order to Thoroughly Repair Palisade-
Eureka Line l. Reported


L. r. GLADDEN. Of San Francisco and
II. A. Talley Of Elko, Nevada, arrived
Ia Eureka last Monday afternoon and
spent the remainder of the day looking
over the town and seeking information
about conditions in this camp. As they
came mp from Palisade over the tracks
OF the E & p. ON a speeder. the SENTINEL
sized them mp rs being connected in
some capacity with the railroad and
asked for some news. While both
gentlemen were courteous. they said
they did not care to say anything for
publication regarding their present
visit to Eureka at this time, but that
they expected to etorn here in about
three weeks and would then try to give
the SENTINEL something for publication.
From another source it was learned
that one gentleman was a representa-
tive Of the Western Pacific Railroad,
and the other q Western Union TeIe.
graph man; also. hat the order for the
thorough repair Of the Western Uuion
Telegraph line between Palisade aud
Eureka had been gwen. and that this
work would be completed within the
next three weeks.
This last information was not from
an official source. but is believed to be
pretty reliable.
The re-establishment Of ,telegraphic
service into Eureka will surely be ap.
preciated. for the present telephone SER
vice between here aud Palisade has
proved most uncertain. and when par
ticularly needed for urgent business the
line has often been entirely out of com.
mission or working SO badly that it has
been next TO impossible to get a message
through.
Whether the Western Union will re.
open it's Office in Eureka at this time,
or the telegraph line is being repaired
for the E. g. P. Railroad Company,
could not be a~scertained. But in either
case il will mean a much improved SER
vice over present conditions, and there
is little doubt but that the Western
Union will open an office in town soon
after the railroad resumes operation
and business here gets back to normal.

Attention is called by the United
States Geological Survey to the fact that
it does not make analyses or assays of
ores or metals for the public. Many
specimens and samples are received by
the survey. accompanied by requests
for such treatment, with which il is i'm
possible to comply. The most that can
b, done in such cases is for the survey
g~sologist to give an off-hand opinion
based ON a simple examination Of the
specimen; but il an assay is desired.
ths proper course is to employ a private
a'ssyer or to send the specimen to one
Of the Government assay offices.

to do all things necessary to set the new
machinery in motion. Pending the
organization Of the Board, there was q
contest between Messrs. Arlington and
Cromer as to which of those gentlemen
was legally entitled to occupy q seat on
the Board; the latter having been named
in the law, and the former holding .

position; each in turn protesting against
the right Of the other to the seat.
After a recess for consultation, Messrs.

was thereupon organized by the election
of Mr.. Hall as chairman Judge F. ii.

CAUGHT IN CONVEYOR BELT
Three Men Suffer Painful Though Not
Serious Accidents at Windfall

Three men working in the milling
plant of the Windfall Mining Company
met with painful though not serious ac-
cidents on Thursday and Friday while
cleaning the idlers that carry and sup
port the oonveyor belt that carries the
ore from the crusher TO the tanks in
the mill.
On Thursday Jack Evans had his left
hand caught. and though no bones were
broken, his hand aud wrist were badly
wrenched. John Gibellini met with a
like accident the same afternoon, but
he did not escape so fortunately. His
right hand was caught aud besides hav-
ing it severely pinched, one finger was
badly split open and he lost the nails
from two of his fingers. Thomas Hook
ing had his left hand caught in the
betting Friday forenoon and besides
having the hand badly wrenched. suf-
fered the dislocstion of his little finger
and had one other finger cut open.
These idlers are revolving rollers that
carry a large belt conveyor, and on &C.
count of the particles of ore and dust
that accumulate in their revolving
sockets. require attention and cleaning.
The men are provided with a thin
wooden paddle to do this work. but often
use their bare hands and fingers when
an idler does not require a thorough
cleaning.
Evans resumed work again Friday,
but Gibellini and Hooking will be forced
to lay off until the soreness in their
bruised hands and split fingers passes
of. DIR. Roberts, the company physi-
clan. says no bad results are likely to
occur from the accidents.

Anonymous Writer at Seattle, Wash,
Sends Postal Order for that Amount
Considerable interest aud speculation
has been aroused around the Court
House this week over the donation Of
800 sent Commissioner Alex Fraser
from Seattle, Washington. by an
anonymous writer. to be used for the
benefit Of the Eureka County Hospital.
The letter of the writer aud the ac-
companying Post Office order for 500
were presented to the Board Of County
Commissioners at its meeting on We'd
nesday by Mr.. Fraser. and the Board
promptly accepted il with a vote Of
thanks and ordered it turned over to

So far. no one has been able to place
any former resident Of Eureka now
living in the northern country who
would be liable to send in such q gen.
erous and unsolicited gift, and it is
generally believed to have been sent

an inmate of the County Hospital when

northern country, now shows his ap-
probation and gratitude by evening up

was a full aud straight statement of his
only connection with the affair that his
past friendly relations with the mem.
bers of the Board. and his careful hand
ling Of all its proceedings should assure
them that this Communication was pub
lished because it was only right that
both sides Of any controversy should
have a hearing; that he did not come
before the Board to plead the baby act
aud if the Board thought him wilfully
culpable of in any way bringing about
the publication of this matter, it laid
with the members Of the Board to seek
any redress they thought proper.
Believes Retraction Should Be Made
In view Of the fact that certain charges
made against the Board of County Com
m~issioners by the County Board of Edu-
cation in its communication published
in last Saturdays SENTINEL cannot be
substantiated according to the official
records. which are open { the Board
of Education, or any one else who cares
to examine them; and. further. that
Commissioner Otis Fulton was not a
member of the Board of County Com
mlssioners when these certain trans
actions were passed upon. the SENTINEL
believes that in all justice the Board of
County Commissioners is entitled to a
r~etraotion from the County Board Of
Education.

AND OTHER MATTERS
Grade Across the Slough Below
Eureka Reported To Be
Nearing Completion
Reports from the construc-

Reports from the construc-
ton camps and the other forces
along the line of the Eureka &
Palisade railroad are most favor
able rs to the progress made dur
ing the week. The grading force
thatwentinto action at the Slough,
eight miles below Eureka, the
first of the week, is reported to
have done particularly fast work,
and a visitor there Thursday from
Eureka was informed by the men
that the grading work at that
point would be completed in
about four days. The gang that
lay the ties and rails we're ex-
pected to reach the Slough to-day,
and as soon as the roadbed is
sufficiently completed for the
engine and pile driver to reach
the channel a hurriedly built
bridge and trestle work is to be
put in so that the Nc. Z engine
now in Eureka can be taken down
and put into commission on the
road. This engine is said to be
badly needed, and an extra effort
is being made to complete the
work at the Slough in order to
get it out of Eureka.
One gravel train with a large
force of men is reported to be
completing the track in Pine
Valley, and another gravel train
with a smaller crew is working
near Blackburn.
The construction train got
up as far as Garden Pass summit
the middle of the week, and al
though the road down the hill on
this side is said to be in pretty
good order, an engine has not at
tempted to come over that por-
ton of the road as yet, but
several fiat cars with supplies
for the construction camp at the
Slough were let down the hill
with their own brake power and
made the trip all right.
Agent S. G. Dye reports the
telephone line to Palisade as
working very poorly all week,
and says it has required consider
able effort and patience to get
any kind of a message through.
He informs us that Joe Minoletti
started out from Naples ranch in
Pine Valley yesterday with his
big team, but with only one
wagon. AS Eureka at this time
is pretty short on a number of
supplies, he is making IN effort
to get some of those most needed
through on light rigs, as the bad
roads in the north end make it
impossible to haul any heavy
loads.
