Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1876-10-10

FALLIsH.-The nights and mornings
have a touch of fall about them, sug-
gestive of ~overcoats and hot whisky,
but the days are exceedingly warm for
this season of the year. The sky
sunday night aud yeste rday morning
threatened a storm of some kind, but
only resulted in the usual storm of
dust. A little moisture in the atmos-
phere would probably prove beneficial
TO the health of the community, as the
long dry spell which has prevailed
has probably caused anlinalculR to
accumulate in the atmosphere, which
have devoured the ozone and absorbed
the oxygen, thus preventing the forces
OF nature from oXygenating, and Great
ing, in combination with certain
ozoneous elements supposed to be
evolved by atmospheric pressure to
the exclusion of the eliminations
natural to and derived out OF the cir
cumambiency of ethereal moditica-
tons. Ii this were not so, there would
probably not be half so many people
in town troubled with corns. Our col
uInns are open to anybody who can
scientifically controvert the facts here
stated.
PETTY LARCENY.-A young man
was tried in Justice Beatty's Court,
last evening, an a charge of petty lar
ceny, adjudged guilty and sentenced
to pay a fine of one hundred dollars,
with the alternative of fifty days in
Jail. He accepted tie alternative. AS
this is the young mans first appear
ance before Justice Beatty, and as he
has respectable family connections in
this town, we depart from an established
rule of the SENTINEL and refrain from
publishing his name, not, however,
out of any consideration for the GRIM
inal himself.
JUMPING.-Eureka Consolidated
stock is jumping like a catamount. 1t
touched $l7H in yesterday afternoons
board, which is an advance of nearly
five dollars over Saturdays prices.
over three thousand shares changed
hands at rates ranging from SIS to
$l7H. The movement in the stock is
probably owing to the near approach
of the company's election.
THE HEBREW BALL.-The first an
nual ball of the Hebrew congregation
of Eureka will take place at Bigelow's
Hall tomorrow night. The best music
that could be procured in Eureka will
be in attendance, the ladies of the con.
gregation will furnish an elegant sup
per, and every effort will be put forth
to secure pleasure and amusement to
all who may be present.
TAINTED IN THE PULPIT While
Rev. MIR. Gray, the new pastor of the
Methodist Church in this town, was
preaching, last Sunday evening, he
was seized with a fainting fit which
rendered him unconcious for several
hours. He was confined to his bed
yesterday, but his illness is not deemed
to be of a serious nature.
ELECTION NorlcE.-In our advertis.
ing columns will be found a proclama-
ton by the Board OF County Commits
sioners, calling an election on the
seventh day of November next and
designating the places where polls will
be held in Eureka county.
WANTS TO COME BACKING are in
formed by a spiritual medium of this
town that she has received a spirit
communication from James Lick,
stating that he is trying to get a pass to
come back to earth, just to make one
little, unimportant alteration in his
will.
RECEPTION TO Hon. THos. WREN
Hon. Thos. Wren, Republican candidate
for Congress, is expected to arrive
here on t~o.night's train from Palisade,
and a number of his friends have ar
ranged to meet him at the depot and
escort him to his rooms.
