treatment at Georges hands, and feels the
coming separation keenly. Returning
home she find Fanny Minafer waiting to
give her a full account of what took place,

the little keepsakes and letters George had
sent her; but her heart was heavy indeed
for a trip around the world. The town
has a tremendous boom and everything is

Harai r. Laying. who arrived in Eu-
reka this week to act as superintend-
ent of the Eureka-Holly mine during
the absence of L. w. Hope, is greatly
interested In the treatment OF anti
mony ores through chloridizing vola-
tilization processes. He has a small
plant in San Francisco. where he has
for some time been making expert
ments for the purpose of finding a
most economical method OF reducing
antimony ores.
Mr.. Laying was interested in prop
critics at Austin when that district
was in its prosperity. and he is well
acquainted with the mining condi-
tions in Nevada. There is a possibil-
ity that his method of reducing ores
will be adopted by the Eureka Holly
mine officials in constructing a plant
on their property.

OIL PROSPECTS AT
ILLIPAH BRIGHT

Ely Record: Reports from Illi-
pah are most encouraging and the
progress being made is most salts
factory to the management.
The latest goodnewsis that brought
in by Ira MacFarland, field superin-
tendent of the Illipah Basin Oil &
Gas Company. - Mr.. MacFariand ar
rived in Ely Thursday and when asked
in regard to the property had the fol-
lowing to say:
"The drill, which is now down to
over 400 feet, is making good prog
ress and everything running smooth
ly. 1t is in highly carbonaceous
lime, laminated with lime shale and
sufficiently pregnated with oil to
show plainly on the water whenever
the bailer is dumped.
"Of course we do not expect to
get commercial oil in lime, but its
presence in the formation is quite
encouraging.
This character of lime, while it
is not particularly hard, is of a rub
berry texture owing to its hydrocar-
bon content. and for this reason the
drilling is much slower than 1t would
be il it was more pliable or brittle.
However, we can we'll afford to
accept the slow drilling as the log of
the well up to this time is entirely
satisfactory in every way and when
the present formation changes we
may expect some interesting develop
ments.
1--WE do not expect nor do we want
to bring in producing well at this
shallow depth, but should we cut
even thin superficial stratum of
sand below this lime it is quite pos
sible that 1t might even produce a
little oil. but l do not expect. to cut
the Chugwater sand. which is the bed
we are after, until we have passed
the one thousand foot point.
Weather and road conditions are
very much against us at this time,
particularly roads which in places are
almost bottomless in mud and make
the hauling of water and fuel and
supplies very difficult"

WILL ORGANIZE TO
RELIEVE GOLD SITUATION

For the purpose of organizing to
furtehr the efforts of the American
Mining Congress in its labors to OBJ
tain relief legislation for the gold
producers of the country, meeting
of mine representatives will be held
in Tonopah Monday afternoon, March
%, according to special dispatch re-
ceived from Fletcher Hamilton, State
Mineralogist of California.
The meeting will be attended by
Governor Boyle, Buckley Wells, pres
ident of the Mining Congress, and
others prominent in the mining in
dustry of the country, 1t Is stated.
Owing to curtailment of gold pro-
duction by various laws that are such
as to practically prohibit the mining
of gold, experts all over the country
are deeply concerned over the state
of affairs, and are seeking to find
some way to relieve the situation.

Members Of Traffic Department Of
Southern Pacific Company Come
Here In Interest Of Railroad

Members of the Traffic Department
of the Southern Pacific Company. con-
sisting of ]. nj. Fulton, Assistant Gen.
eral Freight and Passenger Agent.
E. b. Stinson, Travelling Agent, and
T. Bergerson, Livestock Agent, all of
Reno, we're in Eureka this week for
the purpose OF determining in what
way the interests of this district can
best be served by the railroad now
that 1t has been turned back to its
owners by the Government.
I'VE came to get acquainted with
conditions here" Mr.. Fulton said,
land to see IL the service of our road
is satisfactory to our Eureka patrons.
1t seems to me that the district is on
the verge of wonderful developments
in the mining industry, and judging
from the number of farms between
here and Palisade, it has vast agri-
cultural resources yet to be devel-
oped. Since the railroads have been
turned back to their owners, they are
greatly interested in building up the
country. Our representative will make
regular visits to Eureka, and the
company will make every attempt to
serve the people here to the best of
its efforts"
A large quantity Of railway equip
ment is being built in the Southern
Pacific shops at Sparks, Ogden, Sac
ramento, and Los Angeles, Mr.. Full
ton declared, which shows that the
road is making preparations to do its
part in getting Nevada back onto a
pre-war basis af activity and prosper
ity. About 5000 or 5000 cars are
now being built in the western shops,
in addition to a large number of To-
comotives. He thinks there is no
probability of rates going lower, at
least before September l. as no con-
cessions or reductions can be made
until then except by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
Relative to the resources of Ne
vada stock-raising, Mr.. Fulton stated
that over 5000 cars of live stock are
shipped from the State annually, and
that the northern branches of the
railroads alone handle yearly 400
cars of wool grown in Nevada. The
State realizes $4,000 daily in taxes
from the Southern Pacific lines with
in it's boundaries.
The company is not confining its
attention to the territory adjoining
its main lines, but is also going out
into the country reached by other
lines and connections.

ST. PATRICK BALL
is SUCCESSFUL AFFAIR

The st. Patrick's ball given last
Tuesday night for the benefit Of the
Eureka baseball. team, was success
in every way, and the members of
the team give their hearty thanks to
all those who aided by attending.
About 200 persons we're present at
the affair. including visitors from
Palisade. Carlin, and other points IN
the county. A special train was run
from Palisade Tuesday afternoon to
bring the quota from that section of
the county.
Although the dance was one of the
most successful ever given by the
team, officials in charge expressed
themselves as being in doubt as to
whether the funds realized would
fully equip the nine for its season
campaign, and there is possibility
that another dance might be given
later to raise the required margin.
Total receipts from the sale of
tickets amounted to s17O.5O. The ex-
were as follows: Rent of

OIL WELLS ONCE IDLE
NOW BEING REDEVELOPED

Although there was a decrease in
the production of the western fields
during the past fiscal year. there is
no danger of an immediate oil fam
inc, In the opinion of A. ID. McCabe,
travelling representative for the Stan
dard Oil Company, who spent several
days in Eureka the past week. Dis
tiIlate has been taken off the market
only temporarily, he said, and does
not indicate a scarcity of the oil pro-
ducts.
II there were to be serious short
age of the finer oils, Mr.. McCabe said
that no doubt the engines in use
would be adapted to the use of lower
grade fuel. Such was the case at
mine in the Tonopah district recent
ly, when the management, failing to
secure distillate for the engines, be-
gan using coal oil and have found 1t
a satisfactory fuel.
On arriving in Eureka, Mr.. McCabe
found a wire awaiting him, advising
that the following increases In prices
would be effective March II: Coal oil
one cent per gallon: gasoline, two
cents per gallon; and fuel oil, 20
cents per barrel.
Owing to the unusual demand for
oil. wells that have been capped and
lying idle have been re-opened, Mr
McCabe stated, and some of them
sunk deeper. These wells, before the
war. were not considered worthy oi
attention, even by the small produc
ers. But now a we'll with capacity
of even q barrel a day is not to ht
overlooked. for every barrel possible
is being tanked.

But owing to the presence of only

result the two delegates will be ap-
pointed at another meeting on April

ing no funds for expenditures on the
primary elections, which were favored
at the convention at Reno, IL pri-

three counties in the State will hold
elections, In the event no election
is held. 1t is within the power of the
chairman OF the various county com
mittees to appoint the two delegates
from each county. Mr.. Reynolds
said that he would not exercise this
power. but that the concensus of the
members OF the committee would be
