New Strike Improving

The new strike in the Pearl mine on
Bergman & Paroni's ground is i'm
proving as the development work
proceeds. AT present they are sink
ing on the ore, which continues to
hold its dimensions and is improving
in values. Two samples were taken
recently, each from a streak one foot
wide, and showed values of 5000 and
$500 per ton, respectively.
There has been enough work done
to demonstrate the stability of the
ore body, and the lessee. t. Tamietti,
has started sacking ore for shipment.
He has three men at work now, and
as quick as there is room for more
will probably push the work as fast
as possible.

DEATH OF HARRY RICHARDS
Old. Time Miner Of Ruby Hill
Succumbs To the Iufrmities
OF Old Age

Harry Richards. an old-time miner
of Ruby Hill. died at his home there
Wednesday of general debility.
About two years ago he contracted
a heavy cold, from which he never
fully recovered, since which time he
has gradually failed. He had almost
lost the sight of his eyes from cata-
racts having grown over them.
Deceased came to Eureka from
Colorado in 1876 with John G. Kit
chen of Ruby Hill and for a number
of years worked in the mines of this
district. In the SOS he returned to
his family in England, and from there
went to South Africa and worked in
the gold mines. He returned here
about eight years ago and again en-
gagged in mining. He was a man
generally respected, as he had always
been honest and upright in all of his
dealings. On Ruby Hill. where he
was best known, he was held in high
esteem and had many friends.
The funeral was held Thursday af-
ternoon from his late home on Ruby
Hill. District Attorney N. P. Nor
gan conducted the burial services,
and many friends and acquaintance
from the Hill and Eureka assisted in
laying the body to rest in the city
cemetery.
Deceased was a native of Cornwall,
England, and aged GA years, IL
months and 8 days. He leaves a
widow, two grown sons and daugh-
tiers living in England.

they will last but a year or so, and
any kind of a load will break them
in three pieces.
Personally | fail to see why this
line should be STONED to death prac-
tically before it can walk" to satisfy
any concern, and particularly one as
rich as the smelling outfit.
You have heard it said that Mr..
Mills, with Mr.. Whittell, were the
owners of this railroad; now if either
n of them are willing to invest
money in railroads, would it not be
far better to choose in favor of the
encouragement of railways than in
that of a nonresident smelling COM
pany, which in a few years will have
the ore out and be gone, while the
railroads will likely be permanent.
Mr.. Mills has large interests in
Nevada that have yielded large re-
turns in taxes and furnished employ
ment to well paid labor.
Mr.. Mills and Mr.. Whittell, and
those associated with them, builded
the Carson and Colorado Railway, in
which they lost several million dol
lars, quite sufficient to discourage
either of them from considering fur
Their investment in what to my mind.
as this case is beginning to indicate)
extra hazardous undertakings. Ex-
ira hazardous, by reason of the un-
certainty of earnings in a country
of such sparsity of population and
business, and for the further reason
of the uncertainty of treatment that
will be accorded their investment by
Public Service Commission. The
very serious attempt that is being
made to regulate-poverty-as in
this case-one of the hitherto unsung
stunts in the litany of causes taken
notice of for the public good-starts
those kind of men to thinking-think-
ing of other fields in which to invest.
1t is now up to the Commission to
decide on or before March 81,
whether quit or the railroad runs
and a dismissal of the action is what
| must have in order to continue OPP
erations, as improvements must be
made for safety, and no money can
be had for improvements of the most
limited character under present con-
ditions.
Respectfully submitted,
j. E. SEXTON.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Members of the Senior class of the
Eureka County High School planned
a surprise on Professors G. w. Ham
and w. l.. Keep on Friday, March 20.
A large crowd of the High School
and few of the town folks assembled
at the home of Mrs. James Kautz at
7:30, and all repaired to the home of
Mr.. Ham on Mob Hill, expecting to
see him open the door in his school
clothes, and imagine their surprise
when he appeared dressed in his even
ing clothes awaiting them. Thinking
that Mr.. Keep would be surprised,
they then went to his home, and he
appeared hat in hand ready to join
them at Mr.. Hams home. Some
word had been dropped in school,
when the scholars were all discuss
ing just what they would wear, etc.,
and were overheard by the principals,
but despite the fact that it was no
surprise to the principals, all enjoyed
themselves with dancing and other
amusements, and at midnight de-
licious refreshments were served.
The High School girls wish to thank
Ray Swick for his kindness in fixing
their basket ball goals.
The basket ball court in the rear
of the school building has been lev
eled off and is in readiness for a game
as soon as the snow clears off.
George ImObersteg has been alb
sent from school on account of illness,
and we all hope to see him in his
regular seat on Monday.
We all regret to hear that Vivian
Hicks has dropped out of school for
the rest of the term as he was one
of our best scholars.
The geometry class were agreeably
surprised when Mr.. Ham gave them
an easy examination in geometry on
Friday, March 20.
The Seniors are preparing for their
dance on May s, so do not fail to
come. We guarantee you all a good
time, with music by the Nostrosa
Orchestra. PRESS CHAIRMAN.

BUYS 4 PLACER MINE

ciates Invest AZ Battle Mountain
Last Saturdays Battle Mountain
Scout has the following regarding
the purchase and lease ofgold placer
properties near there by l.. A. Petit
bone of the Mineral Hill Con. Mines
Company and associates:
The largest actual deal in placer
property was contaminated this week
when l.. A.. Pettibone, of Mineral
Hill, Eureka County. and associates,
purchased outright the fully tested
claim. the Washington. of L. E. Ken
drick, Robert Scofield and Charles
Snow. The same parties took lease
on the group Of 16 claims adjoining
the Washington, from j. H. burst,
j. A. Veatch and Charles Snow. This
property is situated in the region
known as Shows gulch, extending
toward Golden Era canyon.
Active work was at ono started.
The leased ground will be thoroughly
prospected. Mr.. Pettibone is a min
ing man experienced in placers. and
is not looking for very rich deposits,
but rather prefers quantity with
modest values. He proposes to in
stall placer washing machines which
have proven very effective in British
Columbia. These have a capacity of
80 tons daily and consume very little
water. They operate quite profit
ably on gravel 80 cents per cubic
yard. The gravel of the Washington
claim runs from $4 to SIS per yard.
For these machines millions of yards
will be found that will average 81
and upward in the Battle Mountain
ranQe.
