C INTELLIGENCE.

HEAVY WEIGHTS WITH THE CUE
An extraordinary game OF billiards Is
to be played this evening at the SAFE
rae Saloon. The match is for $50 a side
and the heavyweight championship of
the world. Fred. Barnes and j. M.
Kellogg are the parties entered for the
contest. At latest accounts last night
Barnes was selling first choice in tho
pools, though 1t was thought the scale
woald turn upon the arrival OF several
prominent sports from McGeary Dis
trict, who are expected up by special
train To witness the game. Notwith-
standing, it is estimated that the game
Will occupy nineteen hours and three
quarters. every inch of standing room
in the SaZerac is already engaged.
The first shot will be fired promptly at
9o'clock, and. by special agreement, it
a been provided that the contestants
may recess for thirty minutes for
lunch at ] p. NJ. tomorrow. The ten
thousand profoundly interested specta-
tors who will be present may also take
advantage of the stoppage to fortify
themselves againt starvation pending
the completion of this intensely excit-
ing display of skill. We are indebted
TO Pete Caravan, who assisted in ar
ranging the preliminaries, for the fore
going particulars. A representative of
the National Billiard Congress is TO be
present to calculate the averages, which
will appear in the first issue of the
SENTINEL after the conclusion of the
match.

u. S. BAKERY AND COFFEE SALOON.
Messrs. Scherr Il Hotz, two gentlemen
who excel in their line of business,
will to-day open the above establish
ment, on Main street, two doors north
of Clark, in Goldstone's building. The
necessity for an establishment of this
kind has long been felt by the Eureka
public and we have no doubt they will
do a splendid business. Fresh bread,
cakes, pies, ETC., will always be on
hand, and a delicious cup Of coffee can
be had at any time, day or night. We
have been favored with some excellent
samples of their pastry, for which we
return thanks. Their regular card
will be found under the head of "New
To-day"

Stock QUoTATIoNs.-The Hoodlum
Board, as the little stock board is de-
nominated in San Francisco, seems to
be doing a thriving business, pending
the suspension of business in the other
two. IL is asserted that most OF the
brokers are dealing as usual through
this channel, which gives to the quo
tations OF the little board an impor-
lance they would not otherwise pos
cess. AS a matter of fact, We take it
thatthese quotations may be accepted
rs a fair reflex of the market. OF
course, the demand Is hardly so great
ifom the country as when all trade
connections were running smoothly,
put stili 1t is obvious that a great many
people are seeking to " load up at cur.
Ieht rates. 1t will be observed that
the market stitfened considerably yes
terday, and the indications are that
sne worst Is over. Stocks generally
lower. NV

BERKELEY SPRINGS, Dec. "a.
Messrs. Editors.
Last Saturday morning at eight
O'Clock, the " fire-fendn visited
the premises of Elijah Borer, eight
miles South Of Bath, destroying
two dwellings, the barn, and con-
siderable grain, corn and buck
wheat. The fire was undoubtedly
the work of an incendiary, there
being some ill-feeling existing
gainst MIR. Borer i'm that neigh
borhood.
Several Of our citizens have been
taking the deer lately, and al
though they didn't kill any, they
frightened four dreadfully, at least
so says one of the party, and he
proves the fact by pointing out the
slow price of venison,o which we
quote dull at 8a10c for saddles.
Poultry is drug, much offering,
with but few buyers. AS some of
the Bathites have caviled at our
previous quotations, we have pre-
vailed upon one of our leading
houses to "rate" the market, and
will append it to my weekly let
ter. The "beautiful snow" has
come at last, and it makes the
walking anything but pleasant,
though it seems more seasonable
than the few days preceding.
The children this week are all
expectation, and dnxiousIy wait

have worshiped this week and the

The Senatorial Question.
From the jackson Democrat.

Many of our contemporaries are
setting forth the merits of their
particular candidate but the favor
ed one get "hark" from the word
go. These various puffs, on the
face of them, appear to come from
the people in shape of commune
cations but how many of them
are written in the editorial sane
tum ;, / accredited as coming from
var = IS parts of the State,we know
pf
We are pleased to learn that we
..ave so much available talent ly-
ing around lose. Without dispar-
agement to the brains of one, or
the eloquence of another, "bloated
aristocracy" of another, we say
give us representative man, a
man of brains--and it will not be
to his disadvantage if he should
be worth few thousand dollars ;
such a man would have less incli-
nation to steal. Give us a man
that will command the respect OF
the Senate, one that will work in
harmony with the balance Of our
delegation, and then we may ex-
pect to have our needs respected in
Congress.
Taking everything in account,
we think J. N. Camden is the man
to elect as u. S. Senator in place OF
A. /. Foreman. Mr.. Cam denis
past and present fidelity to the
| Democratic party; and his stand
ing at home and abroad as a bust
ness man, will give him influence
in Congress. His services in the
past have endeared him to the
Democracy of West Virginia. He
is a man of brains, and though a
banker and railroad director, he
can represent the people of our
Sta e as well as any man, and just
as honestly as the best of them
dare to do il. To impute to him,
or any other candidate, so low q
motive as to say that he or any
other man aspiring to Senatorial
honors, would work for selfish ends
and not fairly represent the people
shows a lack of confidence il
American manhood. A man. be
he rich or poor, Democrat or Re
publican, that will go to Congress:
and work out his own selfish end.
to the detriment of his constitu-
ents is not fit to enter the legisla-
tive halls of the nation, and ough
to be kicked out Of Office and GU

"MY. JOHN.
BY JOHN SMIT,"

Like his father, my John, de-
lights in studying history but un-
like me.he carries his experiments
little too far sometimes. A few
evenings since, he read in a popu-
lar journal of the day an article
upon the "genus rush." vulgarly
called "Cat-tails," and unknown
to anyone, straightway commenc.
ed experimenting to raise a crop
of these aquatic plants. Well yes
terday, my wife's class leader called
to inquire after her spiritual pro-
gress," when he found Mrs. Smit
almost frantic from fear, caused by
an unearthly noise, proceeding
from rear,yard. The spiritual adj
wiser did all he could to quiet. Mrs
Smit, but she wouldn't be quieted,
and declared that a Tiger or at
least a Rhinoceros had escaped
from Menagerie and was tarin
round our back yard, but "My
John" entered just then, and with
an air of several C0nquerors, he
invited his Ma and the Spiritual
Adviser out to see his garden,
where he had, after great labor,
succeeded in planting small crop
of cat-tails. His Ma and the Spir-
itu al Adviser after being assured
that there were no wild animals at
large, entered the rear yard, where
My John, had dug and watered a
square, until he had succeeded in
making swamp to his liking and
there at regular intervals, was
planted cigar box, from each of
which waved poor pussy's latter
appendage. You may well believe
that My Johns Ma scolded; and
that the Spiritual Adviser sermon
lied, but My John thought it was
right, and as he has at all times
been taught, ito be sure you're
right, then go ahead" he utterly
refused to give up his pet crop,
until the Spiritual Adviser, called
in policeman No. 27 and then it
was only by the spiritual adviser
promising to aid My John in rails
ing "the crops" that he consented
TO take up the boxes. Just about
that time | dropped in. Well
somehow or other My John SEEM
ed TO make considerable splash
ing at his share of the task, for by
the time they had lifted all the
boxes, Mrs. SHIFTS spiritual advis-
er had the appearance nf tenn
perez in a brickyard. AS they open
ed box after box, some neighbor
who had been drawn hither by
seeing police man No. q enter the
yard, stepped up to claim her "pet
mouser," and as the spiritual adj
wiser would reach for the cats, to
give them to their owners, NY
John must have twisted their tails,
for by the time the last was deIiv-
cred, the spiritual adviser was
bleeding and cussing fsarfully.

Christmas in the Churches.

The Sunday Schools of the Luz

churches held their Christmas tree
festivities in their several churches
on Christmas night. The event is
one looked forward to and enjoyed
in a high degree by the Sunday
school scholars, and they enter in

of the programme with hearty zest,
while the superintendent, officers
and teachers of the schools devote
weeks of labor to the work Of dec
Grafton, &c. The custom is a
beautiful one, and SO appropriate
to the Christmas time, that it
should never be permitted to drop
out of the Christmas calendar.
