Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1875-07-17

nHo"lhS HeI appeliatlOn, weIl desig
nate her as All Yell. She is of the
Mongollan persuasion and resides in
the most ~aristocratic portion of China
town. She's got a voice that a loco
motive whistle wouldn't form an &C.
compartment for, and last evening
about 7 O'Clock she let it out to its
fullest extent, awakening the echoes
throughout the town, and in a few mo-
ments attracting a larger audience from
Main street than ever attended the
Beecher trial or greeted the King of
Pain. Not being thoroughly versed in
the Chinese ve~rnacular, we couldn't
make out whether her discourse was
delivered upon general principles or
directed especially at some particular
individual, and while we were ~revolv-
ing the question in our mind officers
Mckee and Bell closed the meeting by
snatclilng the speaker bald headed and
conducting her gently to the calaboose.
She will probably attend Judge Beat
ty's matinee to-day.
OPENING SPRINGs.-Major Mccoy,
we understand, is preparing to devel-
OPP some Of his springs in New York
Canyon, and as soon as certain arrange.
ments are completed the water there
from is to be brought to the top of the
hill back of the residence Of DR..
Schneider, on the west side of town.
From thence it will be conducted to
Main street in large and subtanii al
pipes, giving us an additional pressure
of about so feet, which will be q capital
thing in the event of fire.
SHOTS. -Four shots were fired in rap.
id succession over in the direction of
Chinatown, at a late hour last night, but
a most vigilant search failed tt rev cal
a corpse. We started out encouraged
by the hope of a dead thing on an item,
but returned terminating about how
frequently in this life are the fondest
dreams doomed to whitening disap-
p%ointinent. We we're denied the pleas
ure of writing obituaries for lalf a doz-
en- Celestials, and We didn't like it q
bit.
VALUABLE SLEEPER. = 1t appears
that our old-tius freighter, w. L..
Pritchard, is giving some attention to
fast horses since going to California.
In Sacramento, the other day, he paid
Steve Boutwell, $500 for a promising
Young trotter. P~ritchard, like Presi-
dent Grant and other great but silent
men, has quite a weakness for fine
stock.
TEAMING AND THGNGs.-There is a
wonderful amount of mining timbers,
sawed lumber, cordwood, charcoal and
SIGH coming in these days. We took
in at a glance yesterday something like
forty teams heavily loaded with this
character of country produce. Eu-
reka gives employment to more leans
than any town in America of equal
size.
UNDER THE WEATHER.-J. C. Ross
(Doc.) is lying at the International Ho-
tel nearly helpless from inflammatory
rheumatism. He was brought in from
Typo a few days ago, and intends go
ing on TO san Francisco as so IN as he
san possibly travel. He is in hopes
that the balmy air and sunny skies
of the Golden State will bring him
around all right-whicA is more than
probable.
OUR RAILROAD. - The locomotive
and ore cars of the Eureka Consolidat-
ed Railroad are busily engaged in haul
ing gravel to fill in between the ties.
AS soon as the track is properly bal
lasted the legitimate business of the
road will commence.
HoosAc.-We understand that nego-
;iations are pending looking to the re-
sumption of operations by the Hoosac.
II a sufficient number of ore producing
mines can be got together the furnace
may be started early next month.
GONE TO AUsTIN.-We overlooked
the departure some days ago of Attor-
ney A. NJ. HillhouSe for Lander's
capital. lie went over a. counsel for
Judge Harmon in matters pertaining
10 the First National Bank.
HAIL.-There was quite a heavy fall
of hail, at one time Yesterday, on the
summit between Eureka and Secret
Canyon. The hail pelted away thick
and fast, but the storm did not last
long.
GEDDEs & BERTRAND.-Some extern
sive improvements and operations are
being inaugurated OF this valuable
Secret Canyon properly. The mine Is
said to be looking fine in every part.
-
DULL.-With the exception of the
king of Pain" not a solitary individ-
ual has been 'cincbed" in Justice
Beatty's court during the present
