Railroad Day

Hurrah Hurrah for Railroad Day,
1t brings good times hat come to stay
Then to the railroad, all hail, all hail,
For it brings again the dailie mail.
Days of the mule have gone and passed,
The iron horse is here at last.
We've got the mines, we've got the ore.
And times will be as they were of yore.
Then Hurrahl Hurrahl for Railroad Day,
We will all feel happy and all be gay.
And when it is time to go to bed.
Don't stop to paint the old town red.
And when we see the railroad train,
We will know good times have come
again.
Then we will all be happy and gay,
When the ears come in ON Railroad Day.
And when it is time to go to bed,
Don't stop to paint the old town red.
We know good times will be all right
Don't fill with booze and want to fight
Hurrah Hurrah we'll all be gay,
When the cars come in on Railroad Day
But when it is time TO go to bed,
Don't stop to paint the old town red.

Resumption Of E. P Will
Start Mines at Hamilton

A. L. Shields of Hamilton was a visi.
tor in Eureka several days this week.
He says that although the news that the
Eureka and Palisade railroad would go
into active operation on Monday next
was not known there when he left, this
announcement has been anxiously
looked forward to for several months
aud will be most welcome to the people
of that section ; that the mines there
cannot be worked without railroad
transportation through Eureka-experi-
ence having demonstrated that under
present conditions the ores annot be
hauled to Ely and shipped over the Ne
vada Northern with profit.
Mr.. Shields states that while there is
little or no snow in Hamilton, it has
piled mp and drifted to great depths in
the vicinity of the mines, and that it is
almost impossible to get supplies to
them at this time.
He says that the of a number
of the mining properties there have
only been waiting the chance to ship
u their ores over the E. & p, and
that he looks forward to a renewsl of
activity in the district as soon as con-
ditions will permit of work being re-
sumed in the mines.

FLYING MACHINE To
CORRAL WILD HORSES
New Yorker Submits Plan to Corral
Wild Horses With Aeroplane

Charles (Pete) Barnum, well known
as a successful catcher of wild horses,
often receives letters from outside
parties who have original ideas, which
they believe will corral all the mustangs
now ranging in q hills
The latest, from a New Yorker, is
right up TO the minute. This party
owns q flying machine, which lie is
willing to ship to Eureka and use 10
pursue the wild horses on their native
ranges. No one will deny that the idea
is new. The owner thinks he can catch
all the horses in the State. Mr.. Barnum,
who was in Eureka this week, says he
believes the machine might prove useful
as an auxiliary. providing it worked
perfectly, and the operator understood
the nature of these animals. Doubtless
the saddle horses that are called upon
TO make the long runs necessary to ex-
haust the wild ones would welcome a
machine that could do the work.
The owner of the aeroplane says he
can fly high or low. turn quickly In any
direction. and speed up to GO miles an
hour. Barnum says he thinks that is
just about the gait necessary to keep up
with some Of the old studs on Fish
Greek Flat.

Status of the Woman Suffrage Question
According to the Constitution Of the
State Of Nevada only male citizens are
allowed to vote. A resolution was in.
troduced in the Legislative session OF
1911 that there should be no denial OF
the elective franchise at any election or
account of sex. This resolution was
passed by large majorities in both Sen
ate and House. According to the pro-
vision for constitutional amendment in
Nevada. this resolution must also pass
the next succeeding legislative session,
that of 1918. in order to have the oppor'
tunity of going before the people (the
male electorate) in November 1914, and
becoming part of the State Constitu'
ton after a favorable vote.

REAL NEWS "sCOOP"
How News That Railroad Was To Com
mence Operating Was Received

mence Operating Was Received
1t is pretty hard to secure a scoop"
of important news in q town without
telegraph service, but, thanks to A. r.
Randolph Of Palisade, the SENTINEL
was able to put a live one over last Satur-
day. In the long z Mr.. Randolph
promised that the people Of Eureka
would be informed through the SENTINrL
the date of the putting into operation
of the railroad just as soon az ii was
possible to send the news on. and that
he would not forget them. Very shortly
after the news reached Palisade last
Saturday Mr.. Randolph sent telephone
message to the SENTINEL that he would
have something for the paper in about
half an hour. We were hen closing
up the forms to &c TO press and really
did not expect anything of great i'm
p~ortance from Palisade. But you never
can tell what is going to happen. Tho
message was ready on time, and when
Adams johnson got ready to lend it to
us from the depot he started of with,
well, here's q real live one, and If you
can get the SENTINEL on the street in q
couple of hours here'sa real scoop"
Everything in the Office worked nicely
and we got to press and enough papers
to supply all Eureka before letting one
get out Of the Office. To give every
body a chance to learn there was some-
thing dong and to get the good news.
We turned a gun with some blank cart
ridges loose from one of the upper front
windows of the SENTINEL building, and
Main street vas soon pretty well filed
with people. IL surely brought them
all out. 1t was only IN before
the official announcement that the e. g.
P. would be in active operation on May
8 was known, and then the cheering be-
gan. Nearly everybody was happy. and
most of the smiles that spread over 30
many faces that day have not worn
off yet.

WINDFALL MARKETS HIGH-GRADE
Fourteen Tons Shipped to Salt Lake
Brings Close to $1,000

Brings Close q $1,000
The following is from the Salt Lake
Tribune of April %:
General Manager George Y. Edwards
Of the Eureka Windfall Company, is in
the city from the property Of Eureka,
New. with a very unusual shipment Of
ore. unusual because there is not q great
deal Of high-grade gold ore coming to
the Salt Lake smelters these days of
numerous Nevada milling plants. The
shipment consists of about fourteen tons,
and 1t is expected to bring in very close
to $1,000. The ore is being sampled by
the Utah Ore Sampling Company.
Mr.. Edwards stated yesterday that this
ore occurs within the vein OF irst-class
milling grade rock which the manage.
ment is now treating in the cyanide
plant on the property at the rate of
ninety-hve tons daily. This ore being
milled is providing the treasury with
comfortable material. for Mr.. Edwards
came Ia last March with sev~enty-five
pounds OF refined gold bullion, a week
ago the same amount of the yellow ma
terial was sent to Salt Lake, and the
mine is showing so satisfactorily that
like results are expected indefinitely.
The property has been sounded success
fully to date to the 500.foot level.
The Eureka Windfall Company is
backed by prominent eastern capitalists.
who helped make early Goldfeld history
by their leasing operations on the famed
Mohawk property.

MEETS WITH SERIOUS ACCIDENT
Isadore Sara Thrown From Wagon and
Suffers Dislocation of Shoulder

Issdore Sara Thrown From Wagon and
Suffers Dislocstion of Shoulder
Isadore Sara. presidents Of the Eureka
Land g. Stock Company. met with a
serious accident last week while on his
way to Eureka from the company's
ranch at Fish Greek. While coming
down this side Of the Pinto summit one
of the forward wheels of his light
wagon dropped into q hole. causing
him to be thrown from his seat to the
ground in front of the wheels. two Of
which passed over his legs. bat as it was
a light rig and ~unloaded, no bones were
broken. He was not so fortunate other
wise, for when he was throw from the
wagon he struck on and dislocated his
left shoulder.
Two other men were on the seat be.
side him when the accident happened,
and as Sara was driving and took the
lines with him when thrown from the
wagon, they were in q rather serious
p~redicament. But one Of the men had
the nerve TO step out ON the pole and
ecure the lines, and the team WAS soon
stopped.
Sara was assisted back into the wagon
and q hurried trip made into town. DR..
Roberts was called. and after putting
his patient under the influence of an
a~nesthetic, immediately placed the dis
located shoulder back into place.
Although carrying his injured arm
and shoulder in a sling, Mr.. Sara has
now so far recovered from his accident
as to be able to be up and around town
and is attending to business again.

MI. Edwards returned to Eureka Tues.
day from his trip to Salt Lake, and in
speaking of the above shipment Of high
grade said the Windfall had been doing
pretty well; that besides the returns
from the above shipment he took over
enough bullion TO make a deposit in
Salt Lake OF some $24, 900, the result OF
the Windfall's product for the past
month,
Mr.. Edwards also stated that he had
made arrangements while on his last
trip to ship the company's precipitates
East. and that in the future they would
not be refined here, thus doing away
with the risk of handling and shipping
