CELESTIAL JUsTICE.-A few days
since we published an item regarding
q fight between two Cinnamon, in
which one OF the men was badly, and
at the time it was thought fatally, in
iured. The trouble occurred over a
game OF dominoes. Mo Bong was the
assailanl, and struck All King over the
head with an iron billy, inflicting Il
frightful wound under he left eve.
AS soon as the act was perpetrated the
would-be assassin fled and has been in
hiding ever since. 1t was thought that
the wounded man would die, and his
''cousins"-memhers OF the same fac
tion-conSulted as what was best to do
i'm the matter. The friends OF the other
party were also on hand to settle the
affair without to law, and IL
was finally agreed that Mo Bong
should, in the event of All Kings
death, pay to his relatives one thou
sand dollars, deiray all the expenses
incurred in hiring a nurse; and engag-
ing the services of an attorney to PROS
ecute, settle the DOCTORS bill of ninety
dollars. and pay the wounded man
wages during the time he was unable
to work, in case BE lived. The man

EARLY "REMINISCENCES OF
EUREKA.

The editor of the Virginia Enterprise,
after paying the SENTINEL handsome
compliment upon the occasion OF its
seventh birthday, relates the following
interesting "reminiscences of the early
days of Eureka. The writer, Judge
Goodwin, was one of the pioneers of
the Base Range and combated the
wolf here during the soul-trying days
Of 1910. Listen to the Judge:
No other town in the State has such
a history as Eureka. 1t was started on
n hope, simply, and lived on that hope
for six months. It's final success was
a wonderful Endorsement of the prin-
ciple of imitation. Men without means
commenced by giving their notes, and
when they matured paid them by Civ.
ing a new note. Nothing saved the
camp from bankruptcy, repeatedly,
except that, from the first, it was dead
broke. CThis last sentence was writ.
ten without any thought of making a
bully The furnace-men paid their bills
by orders on the stores; the merchants,
in despair, left their business to their
clerks, and, when their San Francisco
creditors came around, took TO the
hills. Smelling was an experiment;
the furnaces would run ono day and
then chill, and rival furnace sharps
from Swansea and Frieberg would al
tcrnately look at each other as the fires
in their respective furnaces would go
out and I'm horrible German, or still
more horrible WEIGH, sneer at the
fiux used by their rivals. The liveliest
place in camp was the Justices Court.
II any une thinks hat eve and i'm
partial Justice was not administered
there be is mistaken. Among the good
there were also some very hard citi-
ens There were men who would
steal a blanket or a sack of flour. These
were mildly treated, because the
weather was cold, houses scarce and
food-the plainest kinda luxury.
Then there were fighters by instinct
and fighters by circumstance. Whena
man came out of a saloon, threw his
hat on the ground and declared the
TACT that he was a ~coal-5urner from
hell, people knew that he was harm
less; that he was a good worker; that
he had too much gin for the night;
that he would dance one perhaps at a
hurdy-house, go to sleep and get rob
bed, and next morning go back with a
headache to his coal. pit. But there
was another class, who did not toll,
neither did they spin, save TO .'spin
around town" They did not make
much noise, but if ever a fight was
started they were there. It Wa n JOY
tor the Magistrate To get one OF these.
The stage com pany grew rich carrying
them to Austin, until Lander county
taxpayers looked forward to the bank
ruplcy of the county. But with the
spring a change came. Men discov-
cred that there was ample guaranty for
Eureka in her mines. The furnaces
commenced TO run along for sixty
days at a time. Money began 10 come,
pay-days were established, men paid
their debts, people began to make
homes, and since then the town has
steadily flourished. We are glad that
its PROMISE for the future is bright.
We hope that its mines will 20 down
to the center of the world and grow
richer all the way, and that every mar

THE HoLIDAYs.-Already the store
keepers are preparing for the holiday
season. New goods, the latest novel
ties, suitable for presents, of all de-
s%criptions, are being received and dis
played in the most attractive manner.
The Juveniles, who look upon Christ
la as their special festival, are in
high glee over the approaching time
and their heads are filled with marvel
Gus stories of Santa Claus and a Jolly
good time and a Christmas tree. The
only ones looking sad are the turkeys
and chickens, who seem to have taken
the matter to heart and are seeking an
escape from the raid that will be made
on them in a short time.

DIED.-We mentioned in yesterday
mornings issue that frankie, son OF

not expected to survive the night. He
lived until seven o'clock yesterday
morning, when his spirit forsook its
earthly tenement and scared above to
its heavenly guardian. His sufierings
were evere during his Illness Of several
months duration, but he bore them
with a fortitude perfectly surprising
for one OF his age. He was n manly
little fellow and greatly beloved by all
who knew him. His relatives have
our heartfelt sympathy in their afflic-
ton, which W. trust will be solaced by
the recollection that he is releas ed
from his sutferings and IS safe in the
household OF Him who said: 'Suffer
little children TO come unto me, and
forbid them not, for of such Is the
Kingdom Of Heaven"

We hope to have . prosperous sunday school this summer. We have declined taking an active part in . union pic nic, not because we were not interested in the work, but be. cause we need a library more

We have been teaching here eight months have two more to teach, at the close of which we invite all to at. tend our examinations and sxhi- bitions.
