EUGENE DAVIS RETURNS

Eugene Davis, who has been i'll fol
over a month with the flu at Sar
Francisco, returned to Eureka last
Wednesday. Questioned regarding
the progress being made in the de.
velopment of Eureka-Croesus, he
said: THE mine has never looked
better than it does at present. Work
has been somewhat retarded of late
owing to the illness of SO many OF
our men. An epidemic of something
similar to, but not as severe as the
flu, has incapacitated large number
of them. Fortunately there have
been no fatalities.
eve have made additional con-
nections with the old Dunderberg
workings, thus extending the scope
of our exploring work, so far with
most gratifying results. On the 40O
level we have reached the north and
south fissure which was made famous
in the old days by the large bodies
of high grade ore found in it on levels
above the present 400. Already we
have found a body of very high grade
ore which gives every promise of be-
coming very extensive. Yes, the
mine looks better than ever"

COMPANY PLANS TO BUILD
WIRELESS STATION HERE

Eureka is to be furnished with
wireless telegraph service, according
to plans announced by the Nevada
Wireless Telegraph & Telephone
Company, which was organized at
Tonopah recently.
The Manhattan Magnet says masts
200 feet high for the station will be
ready for business when the dynamo
that will furnish the power is in
stalled. Besides including Eureka in
its service. the company proposes also
to connect with Ely and Tybo
The connecting by wireless of the
important camps of Nevada will as
suredly be a great benefit to all min
ing districts included in the territory
and will permit the convenient dis
patching of news to the outside cities
and towns.

Claim, 200 Feet Below Its

In the Eureka-Climax mine the
Mabel l.. Tunnel, formerly known as
the Orange Tunnel, has been put in
good shape. The necessary timber
Ing has been completed and the rails
laid. Driving in this tunnel is now
being pushed with all possible vigor
towards the known ore body in the
Deadbroke claim. The tunnel will
strike this body 200 feet below its
present showing and upraises will be
made on 1t and the high grade ore
will be extracted and shipped. 1t is
confidently believed that very large
tonnage of this ore will be available
for shipment by the time the weather
conditions will permit hauling.

Respected and Highly Esteemed Pho
necr Resident OF Eureka Passes
Away mt Tonopah

The announcement of the death OF
Mrs. NJ. B. Bartlett at Tonopah. Ne
|vada. on February 20. brought vivid
;ly to the minds OF old Eurekans the
long years OF residence of this vener-
able woman here, and Of the clinging
devotion So ever retained for the
home Of her earlier years. The little
family residence on Spring street in
Eureka was a part Of her worldly
possessions when the end came.
She died from q complication Of
ailments superinduced by imhamma-
tory rheumatism. which confined her
to her home for some length of time.
her condition being aggravated for
months by paralysis OF the lower
limbs.
Barbara Bartlett was born in Ba-
varia, Germany, May 26, 1912, and
came to America when about twelve
years OF age. living in Baltimore. Md,
during early womanhood, later going
to Austin. Nevada, where she mar
ried Mason Brown Bartlett of Ken
lucky In 1856. later going to Eureka,
where she resided until she went to
Tonopah in 1902 Deceased is sur
vived by her husband and two sons,
George Bartlett, we'll known attor-
ney, of Reno, and Henry j. Bartlett,
well known mining man formerly of
Round Mountain, but now living in
San Francisco. She was in her 18th
year.
The funeral of Mrs. Bartlett was
held from the family residence in
Tonopah Saturday. the body being
taken to the Catholic church where
mass was said and Father Noonan de-
pa2[<d from the established custom
by dwelling ON the many excellent
psHsonal qualities of the deceased.
Tie paIlbearers were chosen from old
time Eureka friends and Tonopah
pioneers as follows: Charles E. Wit
tenberg. II. A. McKim, Edward j.
Erickson, ]. ]. McQuillan, Joseph p.
Stenson and w. w. Booth.
The deceased requested that her
remains be inferred at Eureka, but
owing to storm conditions it was not
deemed advisable to make the long
journey at this time and they were
taken to a Tonopah cemetery for tenn
porary interment.f

EUREKA-KINc MINING co.

Driving in the Prospect Mountain
Tunnel, which was recently acquired
oy the Eureka-King Mining Com
pany. is being pushed ahead with all
possible speed. 1t is the object of
tne company to get under the known
ore bodies in the Alexandria claim as
quickly as possible and raise up ON
tnem until the bottom of the old Al
exandria shaft shall have b n
reached. By tapping the Alexandria
smart a wonderful circulation Of air
VIII be obtained which will be nec-
essary and the rich ore bodies OF the
Alexandria will be made available
lor extraction at great depth. From
'nis point the tunnel will be contin-
ued through the Alexandria ground
ana over into and under the old
workings Of the Lord Byron, where
'n the old days q great amount of
very high grade ore was taken out.
a branch Of the tunnel will also be
continued under the old workings
.aAt are zoo feet below the Eureka
iunnel, where quantities of the rich
es' ore ever found in the district
ssre taken out. This will establish
: connection between the two tun-
aels' making the work of prospecting
sua developing that great field of
s'e bearing ground very simple and
asapensive and at the same time re-
aacing the cost OF mining to the min
lam. This is regarded as one of
.as most important undertakings In
.ls mining history of the Eureka dis
s". and will open up an immense
as'o OF virgin ground at depth be-
"" the old workings which were
's'se producers in the old days.

VALUE OF LOCAL REAL
ESTATE PROPERTY RISES

Real estate values can always be
taken as an index to the prosperity
of any community. Consider the case
of Eureka It Is safe to say that on
the whole property i'm this township
has in the past few months doubled
in value. and in some more favorable
instances tripled In selling price. All
this due to the renewed activity Of
several mines in this mining district
that are known to be among the very
biggest Of the State.
That tents will be required to ac-
commodate the flow OF people COM
ing to Eureka with the advance Of
Spring Is not only possibility. but
probability verging close to certain
@ty. Practically every cabin IN town
is harboring prospector or some
other human inhabitant already, and
rooms are being furnished for occu-
pancy on a large scale. Hotel facil-
tiles here are equally as good as
those boasted by any other town of
this size. but then, the present pros
perity of Eureka is not commen-
surate with its size. but greater.
Thus 1t appears that Eureka and
New York City are yet sisters under
the skin. for recent advice from that
metropolis indicates that the scarcity
of housing facilities there is shock
ing, and the rent prices still more
shocking. For instance, a modest
price schedule announces that one
may rent a five-room apartment at
from $4,000 to $50, 900 year. Some
Of these suites, it might hastily be
added, include a maids room, bou-
doir. bath, foyers, and private halls.
OF course, no Eurekan can be imag
ined as being pretentious enough to
desire boddoir. or a foyer, and even
the private hall might be dismissed
for persifiage here. But just the
same, comparison of conditions here
and there may serve as a balm while
local prices and rates go bounding
skyward. The Sentinel" expresses
its fluctuations for the owners of
property, and its commiseration for
the future renters and buyers.
The Eureka sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1902-current, 1920-02-28
EPIDEMIC
MILD IN EUREKA

With only 1 8 or 16 cases of infiu-
enza in Eureka County reported to
him, DR.. w. H. Brennen, County
Health Oficer. says there is no cause
for alarm or excitement over the epi-
demic. There have been no deaths
here caused by the disease, indicating
that it is much lighter this year than
last year. The public is also profit
ing from the lesson learned last year,
and more caution is being shown,
which is thought to be an important
factor in limiting the epidemic to
only mild attacks in most cases.
1t is estimated that the influenza
epidemic will run its course in this
country in about four years. growing
milder each year. Health authori-
ties think that weather conditions
have very little influence on the ac-
tivities of the influenza germ, al
though disagreeable weather may
make the constitution of the patient
more liable to attack. Medical ex-
perts are also OF the opinion that the
germ thrives just as well at high al
titudes as at low ones.
DIR. Bremen said he could not JUS
tify any of the current rumors that
there are cases of sleeping sickness
in Eureka. and that he is certain such
reports cannot be justified. His ad-
vice to everyone is: When you begin
ailing, call in doctor-don't wait
too long.
