THE STATE UNIvERsITY.-We direct
attention to the advertisement of the
State University to be found under the
head of "New To-day" Mr.. Sessions,
the principal, is n of the most ac-
complished teachers on the coast, and
the school being yet small he has am
pie time to testow on each student.
This is an advantage that should have
great weight with parents and guard
ans seeking h most favorable place
for the education Of their children.
ElkO is nicely situated on the Hum
boldt river, and its clinIate is I'M ur
passed in the State. 1t il not generally
understood, perhaps, that no cost is
made for tuition or room rent, and
only seven dollar. a week for board IS
charged at the State University. The
school deserves to be butt up and
strengthened by the people of the
State. 1t is especially convenient to
Eureka, being in easy reach by rail,
and such of our citizens as have chill
dren to educate will find il to their adj
vantage to patroniZe the STATE Univer-
sity. There is no reason why the peo-
pie of Nevada should not make it take
rank as one of the most popular insti-
tutions of learning IN the coast. Their
State pride, if nothing else, should i'm
pei them to do this. Let us give the
California schools the go-by and build
up our own. The State pays all ex-
penses save board, and that item is
placed at a reasonable rate.

CHARGED WITH BURGLARY. - On
Monday night Peter Jeffceys found a
man in his barn, on Spring street, en-
gagged, as he alleges, in untying one of
his horses. The man, who gives the
name Of John Fnrey, vas arrested by
officer Mckee, on the complaint of
Jetfreys, charging him with burglary,
and has examination on the charge is
set for N O'Clock this afternoon, be-
fore Justice Beatty. Furey's friends
claim that his presence in the barn was
without felonious intent; that he was
suffering with a sore eye and went into
the barn for water with which to bathe
it; and, seeing the horse loose, was in
the act of tying it up when Jetfreys
turned mp. In view of the conflict be
IWtcn tbo SldttI1itubS vi uttS III
Jeffreys, it remains for Justice Beatty
to decide whether the former was EN-.
gagged in tying The horse fast or tying
il loose 1t the time the latter entered
the barn; and, even if the latter, it is
IN open question whether tying an
other mans horse loose in another
mans barn is a felony or only at
tempted horse stealing, which is a light
grade of crime compared to the actual
getting away with a horse, which, in
this Instance, was a mare.
JUDGES y Gle RKs.-A gentleman
writing from Ruby Hill suggests that
the Democratic County Central Com
mittee should select Judges and Clerks
for the primaries on Saturday. 1t Is
too late now for the committee to get
together, and besides, the call for the
convention, as published in the SENTI-
MEL, contains a recommendation that
the PEOPLE OF the several precincts
elect their own election boards. There
can be no possible objection to this
mode of procedure. and certainly the
| people themselves can as easily select
their judges and clerks, a. to have the
Central Committee do it for them.
