broke out with the disease and as
there was no health officer here at
that time, they did not quarantine
them and they scattered the disease
broadcast over the town and country
around, claiming that it was not
smallpox So far the disease has been
in a very light form, and is not hurt
ing any one except making them pretty
sick for a day or so.

INDIAN QUEHO MEETS DEATH
Murderous Piute Who Killed Many
Men is Slain by Brother

Searchlight. Nevada. June THE
career of Queho Half, the Piute Indian
who ran amuck and killed half a dozen
miners and honest eaders near Fort
Mahave three years ago, has ended.
Word was brought here to-day that the
Indian, on whose head were placed re-
wards a~ggregating 5000 had met death
at the hands of his brother and uncle.
whom he had tried to kill in a tribal
camp in Arizona.
Queho began his career of murder by
killing John Woodwork on the latter's
claims in Timber mountains. Crossing
into Arizona to elude posses, he killed
DIR. John Gilbert and a watchman at
the Klondike mine. Several prospectors
whom he met in the desert we're slain
for their ammunition. The Indian then
invaded the camps Of brother Piutes
and ruled them by fear until he was
shot down by his two relatives.

PIONEER EUREkAR DIES AT RENO
Michael Walsh, Eureks's First Deputy
Sheriff, Dies There While Visit
ing Relatives

Last Thursdays Journal brought an
account of the death at Reno Of Michael
Walsh. one Of the best known and PROM
inent OF Eureka's earliest pioneers.
Mr.. Walsh was one Of the first settlers
to locate here, and he was soon q
ing a position of trust, being appointed
to the position Of Deputy Sheriff of
Lander County by J. g. Sullivan, with
full jurisdiction to keep the peace here
in Eureka, which at that time was grow
ing like q weed and a pretty lively town.
When Eureka did not have q man for
breakfast in those days, speaking liter.
ally, 1t was considered rather unusual.
While the shootings and killings went
on with little attention being paid to
them. it being considered a good policy
to let the rough element kill itself of,
all the better class of people received
every protection from Mr.. Walsh, and
he was universally esteemed as a man
and peace officer. The following &C.
count Of his death is taken from the
Journal:
The newness ofthis nation was shown
last night when q man who crossed the
sea in a sailing vessel and crossed the
continent on horseback and fought In.
dams on the way, died in Reno sur.
rounded by all the comforts of modern
civilization.
Michael Walsh 1t was. who passed
away at 2 O'Clock last night after q more
than ordinary career, at the age of 70
years. In 45 years of his life in this
country he saw the West emerge from
the home of savages to the treasure
house of the nation.
Mr.. Walsh was born in Ireland in
1910 aud crossed the plains and the
Rockies 45 years ago. He fought In.
dams on the way. particularly in Wy.
oming where he had a horse killed
under him in battle. He came first to
Eureka County where for a number of
years he was deputy sheriff Of the coun.
ty. He lived in Lovelock for 10 years,
following mining. later engaging IN
other business and removing to Ven
tura, California. which was his home at
the time of his death.
Mr.. Walsh had been visiting in Reno
at the home of his brother-in-laW, Orr
McMenamin, where he was stricken
with illness which finally eliminated in
apoplexy. He is survived by Kate
Walsh, his widow.

DAVE STEINDLER PAYS
VISIT TO EUREKA
Former Pioneer Resident Takes
Working Option On Mining
Claims At Cortez

Eureka was visited this week bv
(Dave) d. M. Slender. q former pio.
neer resident. who left here about 30
years ago. While living here he was
engaged with the late Henry Kind In
the merchandise and liquor business.
After leaving Nevada, Mr.. Slender
went to New York to live, and was en-
gagged in business there.
When silver was discovered at Cobalt,
Canada. several years ago, the mining
fever struck him and he was one of the
first to reach and invest in the mines
there. He had a couple of other men
Interested with him. and they paid $780,.
600 for q small claim at Cobalt. MIR.
SLENDER states that this mine has been
a wonderful producer, having, up to
January l, 1918, paid "a. 700. 900 in divi.
dends. The property is still a money
maker. with its own milling plant, which
is under the superiutendency Of Mr..
Steindler's son.
Several months ago the John Ross
claims at Oortez, Eureka County, were
brought to Mr.. Steindler's notice, and
when he found the claims were in Eu.
reks County. the scene Of his early day
business career. and adjoining the ia.
nous Wenban mines. he became in
terested in the proposition and decided
to come out and look over the property.
The outcome is that he has now taken
a lease and bond On Is claims Of the
Rossi property, and the agreement
signed by both interested parties wa,
placed On record here this week. The
development of these claims will b.
commenced at once. aud the work will
be under the SUPPLEMENTARY of Harry
Goliath, formerly employed at tn,
Windfall.
Mr.. Slender was accompanied on hi,
trip West by A. G.. Kirby. an expert
mill man of Cobalt. Canada, who wa,
with him on his trip to Eureka.
Mr.. Slender gave q dinner to old,
time gentlemen friends and acqoaint

Brown Hotel. All those hidden to the

SMALL MILL FOR pROspEcTORs

Arizona Man Invents One Answering
Buno Requirements For About $500
Nearly O year g this paper published
an article describing q quartz mill known
as the Humphreys patent. At that time
q mill was set mp in Prescott, aud some
ore run in testing the mill. says the
Prescott Courier. 1t was the first mill
of the kind built. and was crude in
many respects. although the principle
seemed to be a good one. Since that
time much time and study has been de-
voted to perfecting details Of construc-
ton, until it Is now believed the weak
points of the mechanism have been
eliminated.
M. Pike, who is q practical m~achinist,
has in the past few months made many
changes in the details of the mill. I'M
til he has succeeded in SO perfecting IL
that it feeds automatically and lie handy
and practical in every way. In making
the machine. care has been taken that
no part shall weigh more than 300
pounds. thereby making it practicable
to set it up at points which can be
reached only by trail.
The crushing Of the ore is affected by
means of foul hammers which ere con-
neoted with a revolving shaft. These
hammers strike a blow which is slightly
glancing, thereby securing the pulp.
and it is claimed for the mill that in
this respect the hammers are superior
to stamps. especially in the working of
an ore in which the gold is coated with
iron. The capacity of the mill is about
eight tons in "a hours, upon quartz ore
of average hardness. A 5.horsepower
engine will furnish ample power to run
the mill alone, while q slight increase
in power will also run q concentrator,
should concentration prove desirable.
The patterns and details are about
finished and the Arizona Mine Supply
Company, under contract with Mr..
Pike. Will shortly be able to furnish the
mills at q cost OF $0UO.
Mr.. Pike has shown his confidence in
the mill by securing an option upon the
old Hopper mine, upon the ore of-which
one of the mills will be operated as soon
as it can be completed and set up. In
setting up the Humphreys mill. it is
only necessary to place it upon a solid
foundation. preferably n of cement.
This can be done at small cost, as rock
is available everywhere and a few sacks
of cement can be readily packed to the
millsite.
Mine owners having ore which is not
quite good enough to ship. but which
carries good milling values when
worked at the mine. will lose nothing
by looking into the merits of the new
mill. Its low cos and ease of trans
~portation. at least. are points in its
favor which are manifest to all.
