Around the circle of the gallery hung
horseshoes and balls in red and green.
Above the stage and in the rear of the
hall were banners of the Eureka High
School.
The members of the Senior Glass led

AUTO PARTY OUT ALL NIGHT
@. +. Wittenberg and Family
Mired in Willows Slough for
Many Trying Hours

MIR. and Mrs @. F. Wittenberg. both
former Eurekans who still have q warm
place in their hearts for their old home
town, left Tonopah last Monday morning
in their new 1912 Doris automobile in
tending to reach Eureka in time to greet
our fret passenger train and to attend
the ball that evening. They we're ac-
companied by their three children, max.
ing good time. and everything was going
nicely until they struck the slough about
six miles this side Of the Willows.
Charley left the road here and was
picking q route through what he thought
was sound ground. when ell at once his
forward wheels commenced to sink. He
stopped and attempted to back out, but
could not, and his hind wheels gradually
sank until both axles were in the ground.
He lacked up the wheels, cut sagebrush
and tramped 1t under them, but could
not get the machine out of the mud. As
it was about 10 miles to M. Regli's ranch.
the nearest point he could seek aid, he
kept cutting ~sagebrush and filling 1t under
the wheels. working from l O'Clock in the
afternoon until way into the night, but
he could not get the Car out.
He had a big heavy overcoat with
him, and in the morning he cut this mp
aud wrapped it around the wheels to get
traction. 1t worked all right. and he o
had the car on firm ground and headed
for Eureka. making the 25 miles into
town in one hour, the party arriving here
about 10 O'Clock Tuesday morning. none
the worss for their rather trying expert
ence. but greatly disappointed at not
being able to join their Eureka friends in
making merry at the depot and in mis-
sing the ball that evening.
Mr.. Wittenberg is the owner Of the
Cyanide mine on Adams Hill, and has
had a force Of men under supt. Frank
kopp doing development work on the
property for the past year. He informed
the SENTINEL that he was very much
pleased With the showing made, and
said that he expected to be over here
again in q short time, when he hoped to
be able to give out SOM good news re.
garding the Cyanide.
Mr.. Wittenberg and his family left in
their auto Thursday morning on their re-
turn to Tonopah.

MINERAL HILL ABOUT READY
New zoo Ton Mill Has 10000 Tons
of Ore to Reduce

rev y Ion Mill Has 10000 Tons
of Ore to Reduce
While In Salt Lake last week on n
business visit, s. O. Pratt, Of Mineral
Hill, Eureka County, gave the Herald
Of that city the following Information
regarding the mining property and
plant now under his management. On
account of an accident G an ore car on
the high trestle leading TO the milling
plant. the company's new mill was not
able to start on It's initial run last Mon
day as intended:
Yesterday s. o. Pratt, president and
general manager Of the Mineral Hill
Consolidated Mines Company, was in
Salt Lake on business. He expects to
return in time to ride on the first train
out of Palisade and to be present at the
warming mp on Monday Of the 200 ton
mill which he has just completed at his
property. five miles east of the track and
about mid way along the branch line.
Mr.. Pratt has been managing this prop
erty for the past FIVE yeArs. Since last
September the company has expended
s65.o0o in equipping the mill. This
large expenditure is justified by the $50,
600 tons Of ore already knocked down
and ready to shoot into the plant. The
ore averages So to 90 q ton in quartz,
silver and gold. 1t is estimated the
mining and milling will aggregate % to
% q ton. leaving a net profit of approx
mately $3 a ton. Should the entire ton.
mage OF hand now average up that well
it means a profit Of close to a half million
dollars. The mine has been developed
to a depth Of 800 feet and has every in
dication Of giving mp many times the
present available tonnage.
Recently Mr.. Pratt showed the other
officers of the company over the mine
and mill. They expressed themselves
as immensely pleased with the outlook.
The party was made up of Frank Stol.
lenwerck. vice president; 8. Wilcox,
treasurer; and Daniel Pratt, secretary.

RAILROAD DAY IN EUREKA
Record Breaking Crowd Turns
Out to Welcome Train and
Everybody Celebrated


grammed celebration of Railroad
Day in Eureka last Monday, the
entrance OF the first passenger
train in over two years was well
coined by as loyal a crowd Of
well-wishers as it was possible
for the present population of the
Base Range to turn out.
The train was scheduled to ar
rive at A p. m, but a telephone
message from the Summit an
nounced that some time had been
made up and it was expected to
reach Eureka about $50.
As this event had been looked
forward to by Young America for
some time, it had been planned
to dismiss the public school at
the afternoon recess to permit
all the pupils to "see the train
come in" But as no authorita-
tive announcement of such action
had been given out, a very great
many refused to take such chances
and when the afternoon session
was called at l o'clock, hardly a
corporal's guard was present. The
trustees had been apprised of the
real situation of affairs, and soon
after school was called gave or
ders for the dismissal of all for
the balance of the day.
AS early as 2 p. m. people COM
meDced striking out for the E. &
P. depot, abont one mile from
town, and a steady procession
moved ~depotward until the
whistle of the train was heard
down the canyon. Vehicles of
all descriptions turned out that
day to carry the crowd-autos,
carriages, buggies, delivery and
dead axe wagons all being pressed
into service, and many an old
time Eurekan looked in wonder
at the immense assemblage
present.
Several of our enthusiastic citi-
zens had arranged for a salute of
81 guns to be fred on the hill
sides east of town as the train
reached the depot, and as there
happened to be 115 sticks of
giant in the box, it was all taken
to the firing grounds and used.
The train rolled into the e. &
p. depot at $40, and as it entered
the yard the 81 gun salute
doomed forth, and with an air of
welcome by the Lobster Club
Band and the hearty cheers of
the waiting crowd, the glad hand
Of welcome was freely extended
the officials of the road and to
all those who arrived on the first
train.
General Manager j. E. Sexton,
Superintendent L. r. GLADDEN.,
the officials who came up on the
train, and P. B. Wallace. the engi-
neer who reconstructed the rail-
road, said the first regular trip
over the road had been unevent-
full, and considering the newness
of the roadbed they were well
pleased with conditions on the
line. On account of the soft con-
dition of the road through Pine
Valley it had been determined
not to use the heavy oil-burning
engine until the roadbed had be-
come firmer, and the little coal
burning 5 spot was given the
honor.
When the crowd reached town
from the depot the good cheer
commenced to flow freely, and it
