The Extra Trains Run Have So Far
Given Us Three Mails Each Week

Nothing new regarding Eureka's
present mail schedule of once-a-week
service has developed here during
the week. Postmaster Hoegh has
received no further advices from the
Department regarding the situation
and nothing is known here as to what,
if any, action has been taken by it in
establishing the temporary three
times-a-week service the Department
has asked bids for.
In the meantime Eureka has con-
tinued to receive three mails each
week, two of which have been carried
in and out by special extra trains
that have been run to accommodate
travellers that could not wait for the
once-a-week regular train service.
This arrangement appears s~atisfac-
tory just now to the general public,
for we hear no complaints, and if
the extra trains continue, it seems
probable the Postal Department will
be allowed to adjust the matter with
out further action being taken by
the people here.

MASQUERADE BALL

On Thursday evening, February
20, a grand masquerade ball will be
given at the Eureka Theatre for the
raising of funds to help make up
what the county is short on its Uni
ted War Work campaign and Relief
Drive. The Victory Girls and Vic
tory Boys and the Council of Defense
will have the affair in charge and a
good time with lots of surprises is
promised to all who attend. 1t was
the intention to give the ball on the
night Of the 22d, Washington's Birth
day, but that date falling on Satur-
day and thereby making a short even
ing for entertainment, it was decided
that the Goth would be better and
give the young folks more hours for
enjoyment.
Refreshments of various kinds will
be served at the hall; there will be
booths for CONNECTIONS and punch and
lemonade. Also there will be a fancy
work section displaying the work of
the Victory Girls, and such articles
as are not sold before the end of the
evening will be auctioned off. They
are all useful as we'll as pretty things.
The little ones in mask will have
the floor the early part of the even
ing and it is hoped that many will
try for the prizes. Adults will be
masked until II o'clock.

MISLEADING STATEMENTS

The following statement has been
issued by the Nevada Railroad Com
mission:
Referring to items in the press
which have come to our attention re-
Gently, and particularly to an editorial
in the Tonopah Daily Bonanza of
Tonopah, Nevada, dated January 81,
1919. relating to the matter of train
service on the Eureka-Nevada Rail-
way between Palisade and Eureka,
we note that these articles generally
state that the Eureka-Nevada Rail-
way has established a service where
by they operate their passenger and
freight trains only twice a week
each way between Palisade and Eu-
reka, and that such service has the
approval of the Railroad Commission.
"These statements are erroneous
for the reason that under the Rail-
road Commission law of this State
any railroad may change it's train
schedules without notice to the Com
mission. After such schedules are
in effect, the Commission may upon
receipt of complaint make a thorough
investigation of the service rendered
and then enter an order either re-
quiring additional train service or
approving the schedule in effect.
"Up to the present time no specific
complaint has been received against
the change made by the Eureka-Ne-
vada Railway, although letters of in
quiry have been received. 1t is ex-
pected that a complaint will be filed
in the near future, on the basis of
which the Commission will make a
thorough investigation"

The County Commissioners and AS
SCISSOR of Eureka County have re-
ceived a request from the headquart-
ers of the western department of the

furnishing information concerning
the resources of this county.

feet in depth and he came all the way
to Ruby Hill on skis. He reports
that four or five bands of sheep were
caught in the country between Spring
Valley and the Blair ranch during
the heavy snowfall last month and
have so far been unable to get out.
Considering the depth of snow the
owners have not lost many sheep so
far, but if an other heavy fall comes
before they are able to break through
he looks for some heavy losses. He
has already lost three of his work
horses this Winter.
H. P. Henderson. a mining engin-
eer of New York associated with F.
H. Dakin who has been examining
the Phenix mine on Ruby Hill for the
past week, was an arrival by We'd
nesday's train and has since been
looking over the property with Mr..
Dakin. They are both pleasant
gentlemen to meet. but except for
the statement of the latter that he
was here to make a report on the
Phenix and general conditions in the
camp, nothing was learned of any
prospective intention or plans of the
Phenix Company.
While the roads in and out Of Eu-
reka cannot be said to be in even fair
condition for auto travel at this time,
cars have arrived during the week
from Elko, coming up through Rail-
road canyon. from Duckwater and
points south. from Newark Valley,
and a big ear left here for Austin the
middle of the week and is supposed
to have made the trip. The roads
are still hard and frozen and the only
difficulty experienced so far is buck
ing the snow drifts. While autos are
coming into Eureka on the east side
of Diamond Valley. we have not heard
of any getting through on the west
side. A car from Eureka tried to
get through the first of the week,
but had to turn back after reaching
the point, about three miles this side
of the Sulphur ranch.

CURE FOR. INFANTIlE PARALYSIS

Elko Free Press, Jan. 20: Mr..
and Mrs. Arthur Clayton and two
sons will leave this evening for St.
Louis Mo-, where they are taking
their boys for treatment to the Nc
Lean O%rthopedic Sanitarium. A
number of years ago the boys we're
attacked with infantile paralysis,
leaving them cripples, and this insti-
tuition makes a speciality of such
cases. They spent last Winter at
St. Louis and the boys were so great
ly benefited that it is believed they
will be fully restored by another
course of treatment. Accompany
ing them is the youngest son of Mr..
and Mrs. E. M. Steninger, who is
also a sufferer from the same dis
ease, and who will be treated by the
Mclean company. The little daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Zunino of Skel-
ton is also one of the party for
treatment.
Mrs. Clayton is a sister of Mrs.
Frank Kopp of Eureka, and on one
of her visits here had these afflicted
boys with her. The Claytons have
tried numerous treatments for in
fantile paralysis without marked i'm
provement. and Eureka relatives and
friends will be glad to know that
they have at last found a treatment
that gives hope of restoring them to
health.
