1889/99 not 1989/99
Hoover had a pash with a barmaid in Kalgoorlie and bought her a huge mirror. I think she flogged it to the pub, it's in the corridor of the palace hotel with a note. Nice mirror. Tasteful wooden nude caryatids on the side.

The museum says during peak rush days 150,000 people were living in tents. If that was before the Coolgardie waterpipe was laid it would have been a ripe town.
