The Eureka sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1902-current, 1914-05-30

The lining of mine shafts with con
crete, in place of the old method OF
timber lining. is making rapid strides.
The chief advantages of the new
method lies in it's effectiveness in
preventing disastrous fires. The
work is far more expensive than when
timber is used. but economy is found
in it from the fact that, once done,
concrete lining lastsfor many years.
whereas timbers have to be replaced
often. Also. the prevention of fires
and consequent interference with
mining are factors influencing many
mine owners to spend the additional
money.

month, has been making flights about
the city. The start was made from the

the water like a bird and sailing over
the river toward Alexandria. Then the
War College was passed over, a race
was run with an automobile speeding
along the driveway of Potomac Park
and the machine dropped to the surface
of the water, alighting easily and with
out making much more than a ripple on
the surface
Mr. Beech pays Miss Stewart the COM

trace of nervousness even when he
suddenly stopped the motor to glide
down from an elevation of about 700
feet Miss Stewart enjoyed the trip
very much, she says. and would like to
make one every day. She denied feel
ing the slightest sensation of fear and
describes her trip as a most glorious one

celVed his license from the inspectors to
navigate his craft on the water, instead

also the board Of education.
The vice question in Washington
came up for discussion. The associa-

Potomac River Mists Fail to Impede
the Steamers.

Though the Potomac navigators have
been considerably annoyed by fogs on
the river in the past week, the fog
banks have generally made during the
early morning hours and before noon
have disappeared. The Norfolk line
boats and the river steamers have
been able to run on schedule time. In
the early mornings. while the fog
blanket has been thick as a general
thing, it has been thin in spots, and the
steamboat navigators have been able
to locate their positions and keep
their boats moving.
Reports received from along Chesa-
peake bay and on the coast state that
the fogs have been unusually heavy
and have forced an almost complete
cessation of navigation. even the regu-
lar bay lines out of Baltimore and Nor
folk being unable to maintain regular
schedules.
Rivermen say foggy conditions will
continue until the coming Of colder
weather, which is about due.

granite walls are inscribed the names
Of the officers, 232 sailors and rs
