UNION MINES COMPANY
President of Company Inspects Mines
and Says He IL Highly Pleased
With Property

w. p. Fairman, president of the
Union Mines Company. accompanied
by his wife, we're in Elko recently
and left for San Francisco where
they will visit the Exposition, return
ing to Philadelphia by the northern
route.
The Union Mines Company is pc
culiar in its organization as a mining
company. 1t is composed of Is lead
ing men of Philadelphia, nine of
whom are on the board of directors.
The company is a close corporation,
all stocks being owned by the IS
members. There are 90, 900 shares
of common stock issued and SO, 900
preferred. The property. situated
at Union, Eureka County, was
bought outright about two years ago,
and Senator Thatcher was placed in
charge. He has developed the prop
erty into a paying proposition and
the mine is now shipping a carload
of ore daily which paysa good profit.
Enough ore of shipping quality has
been blocked out to keep the ore
teams busy for more than a year, the
returns being used to further develop
the property with the intention of
installing a mill later on. President
Fairman in an interview said:
Il am highly pleased with the con-
dition of the property and believe
we have one of the big paying mines
of the State. We have decided on a
plan of operation and will not put in
the mill at present as we intended
doing early in the Winter, believing
that it is best to further develop the
property at greater depth. If the
ore bodies continue as the indications
lead US to believe we will build a
mill with a capacity much larger
than our plans call for. We have a
large tonnage of good shipping ore
blocked out which will be sent to the
shelters at Salt Lake City. the re-
turns being sufficient to pay for the
development of the property

EUREKA BALL CLUB READY
Will Play Return Game With
Palisade Club Next Saturday
and Beowawe On Sunday

The ball team played a practice
game last Sunday against a pickup
team, and the regulars won the game
easily, in spite of the fact that they
did not use either of their own pitch
ers. Tomorrow the team will show
up on the grounds in their new uni
forms, with each man at his regular
position. Kitchen and Cardinalli
will pitch for the regulars, and a
shut-out game is limited by some of
the fans. The boys are practicing
each evening that the weather per-
mits, and will continue practicing as
long as there is a chance for a game.
The captain of the club is in receipt
of a number of challenges from out
side teams; negotiations are well
under way, and an announcement of
the arrangements for the first half
of the season may be expected pres
emily.
1t is said, by those who have had
the opportunity of seeing the boys in
practice and observing the apparent
ease in which difficult plays are
made. the confidence they have in
each other and the teamwork in
general, that a stronger aggregation
of ball players has not been seen on
the Eureka grounds in a score of
years.
Off To Palisade MAY 8
The team will leave Eureka on the
morning of the 9Th to play Palisade
on that date. and Beowawe the fol
lowing morning. The railway COM
pany will run an excursion train at
popular rates for the benefit of the
team and their followers, and a large
crowd will no doubt take advantage
of this opportunity to see the boys
extend themselves on foreign grounds
Palisade is making arrangements
for the accommodation of a large
crowd from Eureka. They are pre-
pairing amusements that will mean
something doing every minute, the
chief attraction being the play to be
put on by the Palisade Dramatic Club.
1t will repeat the performance OF
Miss Topsy Turvy," a roaring
comedy in three acts with a laugh in
every line, featuring those sterling
comedians, Wendell Jones as the
Deacon" and James Whitmore as
"Ned the Pesticated Coon" W h Q
will be ably assisted by a company
each one of whom is a comedy in
himself, and the play is to be followed
Immediately by a social dance.
The excursion schedule has been so
arranged that the school teachers
and pupils may also enjoy the outing
without danger of missing any school
hours.

Easy to Darker Gray Hair

When your hair turns gray, streaked
with gray, white, faded, brittle, fall
ing out, itching scalp or dandruff, try
the following: On retiring rub Q-Ban
like shampoo on hair and scalp. By
morning the gray has disappeared
and another application or two of
Q-Ban the hair is beautifully darkened
and becomes fluffy, glossy and luxuri-
ant with real hair health. Itching
and dandruff have stopped. Q-Ban
stops falling hair and promotes its
growth. Q-Ban is not sticky and
messy, and cannot injure the hair or
scalp. Delightful to use and sure to
darken hair so evenly and naturally
no one can tell. Soc for 81 bottle.
