 However, Lieut.. Rooster says, if any man is convicted of committing an offense while unlawfully wearing the uniform, such a charge will be prosecuted for the latter violation, as well as for the offense for which he was arrested.

EUREKA's SPRING CLEANUP
Wonderful Improvement Being Made
by Removal OF UnsigntIy Piles
OF Rubbish and Trash

Eureka Is beginning to have the
appearance OF q Main street town,
following the annual Spring clean
up. While wagon and truck loads
OF rubbish have been removed from
all parts Of town, the tin can, bottle
and debris piles Of long standing in
vacant lots and unoccupied territory,
make certain portions still look like
dumping grounds that are unsightly
to the eye.
A former Eurekan on a visit here
said: eureka could only be COM
pared, in his mind. to Dickens De-
serted village but the wonderful
water resources of Eureka canyon
ought to some day make it a garden
spot in the desert, and that its mines
would yet make 1t world famous"
The cleanup period throughout
the State has been extended, and II
Eurekans continue ON the job, the
old town will surely be wonderfully
brushed and spruced up by Decora-
ton Day. m
Steady improvements are being
made by property owners in all parts
OF town. which. when completed will
materially change the general ap-
pearance to one OF thrift and enter
prise and the look to one of comfort
and attractiveness.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The Junior Prom, given Friday,
Nav l5, was the third of a series OF
parties planned by the different clas-
ses during this semester, and must be
gwen credit as the liveliest a1Iair ex-
perienced this year by either the
high School students or their guests.
Dancing began at an early hour
and. with the exception of q slight in
termission for supper, continued un-
III half past 4, or until everyone had
hardly enough energy left to walk
home.
Partners for supper were chosen
by blindfolding the boys and girls
and having them take the partner
they got in the scramble that fol-
loved. However, this was not what
one would call exactly a success. for
some were determined to eat supper
With the one they wished. for, and
not with the one that was wished on
them, and they did SO.
This was our first Prom and GER
tainly will not be the last, for the
memory of it will always be so en-
hyening that Juniors in the future
sill entertain no fears of failure
when they determine to follow the
sxample set by the Juniors of 1920.
Efforts are being made at present
In this country to raise money to aid
the starving children of Southern
Europe, and few contributions have
been given by the school towards
this cause.
Those flush Sophomores are plan
ning another party. and II 1t is going
70 be anything like their Valentines 8
party, we certainly aim to be there.

.HANDLEY FAMILY TO
TRYpAsTEUR TREATMENT
Test By. University Results IN Find
Ing Family Cow Was Effect
Cd By Rabies

Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Handley, their
two children, and Mrs. Handley's q
mother. Mrs. William Potts, were de-
partures Wednesday for Reno, where
the ladies and the children expect to
take the Pasteur treatment as q pre-
vsntive against an attack Of rabies.
At the Handley Bros ranch In
Newark Valley on April /, coyote
was observed to be attacking q milch
COW in one of the corrals and was
shot and killed. The dead coyote
showed NO signs of being rabid. and
as the COW exhibited no symptoms Of
the disease during the next couple of
weeks, the milk from the COW was
again used and the incident passed
and was about forgotten.
About two weeks ago Mr.. Handiey
noticed that the COW was not acting
exactly natural and had her placed In
another corral and quit milking the
animal. The next day the COW
showed unmistakable signs of not
being right, and while watching her
she hobbled down to the creek, fell
in the water and died.
AS the family and the men working
on the ranch had all been psrtaking
of the milk for about a month. con-
siderable uneasiness was felt and Mr..
Handley brought the cows head into
Eureka and had 1t prepared and
shipped to the University at Reno to
be tested for rabies. AS small sore
had already broken out ON the face
of one of the women, and both COM
planned of sore gums, the result Of
the test was anxiously awaited, and
Mr.. Handley requested the Univer-
sity authorities to telegraph the re-
suit of their findings at once.
The answer arrived by telegraph
Tuesday, and was to the effect that
the head of the COW gave all neces-
sary evidence of having been rabid.
The family made hurried arrange
ments and left by the next days train
for Reno.
Henry Wedekind and George Van
noy, working at the ranch. pulled the
COW out of the creek with horse
and rope. and in handling the cows
head got some pf the saliva on their
hands. Several days later slight
eruptions showed on their hands and
Mr.. Handley offered to take both
men to Reno, but they declined and
said they did not believe the erup-
tions amounted to anything, and
would take chance.

TO LOSE 191 CASES
OF BONDED WHISKEY

in the Supreme Court of Nevada,
which has handed down a decision
dismissing the petition for writ of
habeas corpus for the release of Y.

nemucca Silver State. The decision
also quashed an alternative writ o;
prohibition to prevent the destruction
of 191 cases of whiskey taken when
Arrascada was arrested last year for
violation Of the State prohibition law
Arrascada is remanded to the custody
Of Sheriff Springer. and it is thought
he will give himself up before the Of
fetal decision reaches winnemucca.
The original order of Judge Calla-
han. which will be in force upon ar

whiskey ''at once" This, however,
will probably not be Immediately ac-
complished. They will apply for
rehearing of the case before the Su-.

Sudden Illness

Following the close Of his days
Work on Ruby Hill on Friday OF last
week, Robert A. Laird was taken
with a chill and congestion of the
lungs. Pleuro-pneumonia quickly de-
veioped, and medical aid was OF little
avail, for he was critically i'll from

particularly sad feature of his death
Is that it so quickly followed that of
mis- Older brother Abrams here on
May q, who he had assisted In laying
10 mis- final rest, seemingly himself In
apparent good health at that time.
Mr.. Laird came, to Eureka from
Homecoming, Md, in 1879, his mining

cierkship in a general merchandising
store when he answered the call OF

His first work in Eureka District was
at the Silver Connor mine on Pros
pect Mountain. then at the Colorado.
adjoining the Connor on the west,
and from there to the Alexandria,
where the three Laird brothers were
all employed. Later he engaged in
stock raising, going to Green River.
Wyoming. During the hard Winter
Of 1883 heavy stock losses caused
nim to give up this business and he
returned to Eureka. He then joined
mis- brothers in lease ON the Bull
whacker mine and for about 16 years
were operators of this property. later
taking over leases on the Williams
burg and Holly mines.
In 1884 he ,servpd as q deputy
under Sheriff w. H. sweeney, and In
1893 he again served as a deputy un-
der Sheriff James Morris; during
Martin Mahoney's incumbency as
Sheriff he served as his deputy for
about six years. He was trustee Of
the Eureka schools for some 16years.
Mr.. Laird was for many years q msm-
Der of Eureka Lodge No. 16, F. & A.

For 40 years he has been q member

daughter; one brother, william, and
sister, Mrs. Mary r. Brown, OF
Cumberland City, Md. He was q
