sPRINKLIxG THE STREETS.

Now, that the summertime is fast
approaching, and the dust becoming
~di-agreeabiy prevalent, our property
holders and citizens OH the main
streets are resorting to the old plan of
laying the dust by bringing the small
hOuse-hose into service. Past expert
ence has proved that neither this meth
Oh nor the sprinkling carts prove a
success. 70 the first the water COM
pany objects az too wasteful Of the wa
Ter needed for other purposes; and as
to the carts, the spasmodic attempts
10 keep in operation have shown
that they will not do. The most sue
cessful way Of keeping the streets
free from dust is a plan brought into
use in y number OF mining towns ] n
Idaho and other places by ineans of a
length OF fire hose and a blunderbuss
pipe. EARLY each morning, before
sunrise, some II having charge Of the
business attaches the hose to a fire
plug and thoroughly saturates the
streets AZ far as the stream OF water
will permit; then, going to the next fire
plug, and so on until each plug Is
brought in use and the street we'll wa
tered. This plan has always been
found to work we'll, the streets being
kept free from dust during the most
prolonged dry season. The water
company a furnish water for such
use at a very reasonable rate, for when
the tanks are drawn on at about day
break it would only take about the
same amount of water as TO- runs TO
Waste. Some energetic man can make
money from such an enterprise.

THE MEETING ro.NroHr.

Every American citizen should deem

lows Hall tonight, for the purpose oil
arranging for a proper celebration of
our Centennial National holiday. In

Union next fourth day Of July will be
celebrated in q manner becoming the
great event. Let not Eureka be be-
hind, but arrange for a celebration OF
the day that will excel all others ever
made. Attend the meeting and show
what patriotic, country-loving and lib
erty. worshiping mel can do when
once aroused.

DECORATION DAY.

Two weeks from next Tuesday will
be the 30th day of May, the day which
for several years has been solemnly
observed throughout the Union in do
ing honor to the dead of the late civil
war. The old soldiers and all the citi-
zens Of Eureka, have ever since we at
tanned to the dignity of a town, duly
celebrated the occasion; and have, ir-
respective of party, done honor to
those who fell on either side. In fact
we believe that to a few old soldiers in
Eureka belongs the credit of first in
augurating sucf a celebration OF Decor
alton lay as tended to heal rather than
infiaine the bitterness engendered by
Years of strife, such a celebration AS
enabled citizens from all parts of the
Union to mourn the fate and do honor
to the memory of all who fell from
Bull Run to Appomattox, whether ar
rayed under the banner Of the Union
OF under the folds of the "Bonnie
Blue Flag" Whether Eureka is en-
titled to this credit or not, 1t Is to day
true that from Maine to Texas this sol
einn day is observed without y rem
nant OF sectional feeling; that the
graves Of Confederates at Elmira, and
elsewhere throughout the North, are
as tenderly cared for by the people as
those of their " dear ones; and that
throughout the South the graves Of
C~onfederates and Federals alike are on
that day covered with the beautiful
flowers which III Southern States
alone can boast. We understand that
the militia companies Of Eureka pro-
pose to parade on that day, but that
alone Is not enough. This is our Cen.
tennial year, an era Of peace and good
will. 1t is not too early to commence
action, and we hope that the veterans
Of the late war, of whom there are
hundreds in our midst, will-those
from the South rs well as the North
Immediately take this matter in hand
and provide for proper ceremonies on
that day. 1t is in their hands. 1t is
for them to act.

The Phoebe Record, after paying its
d~isrespects to c. Columbus Powning
as a Congressional aspirant, pays the
following compliment to our fellow
~townsnian, whose name heads this no.
tice: "If it should turn out to be the
case that Mr.. Wren does aspire to the
position OF Congressman from this
State we can only say that it will be a
very hard matter for his party to select
a more capable man, one more worthy
TO represent the State of Nevada, one
more likely to benefit his constituency,
one more capable OF rejecting honor
on their choice. AS to honesty, Mr..
Wren stands before his fellow-citizens
without fear n without reproach, for
surely he Is what is said to be the no.
blest work of God-an honest man.
We are now simply speaking of Mr..
Wren as a gentleman and a citizen. AS
to politics, it is well known that he is
an out.and-out Republican, but we are
not referring to him from q political
standpoint. AS to that, he, If nonii-
mated, will have to take the chances of
his party, and il it does not win Tom.
will lever squeal. Our remarks are
only intended TO apply to Mr.. Wren's
personal character, to which they are
respectfully offered as a well deserved
tribute. We know Mr.. Wren; have
known him for many years. We know
him to be honest, reliable and
capable, and courteous, gallant and
manly, and withal charitable and gem
erous to a fault. We know that we
may, and properly so, be told to mind
III W business, that we have moth
ing to do-which isthe truth-with the
arrangements of either party. In spite
of that, and all other penalties, we will
say this: that if the Republicans Of this
State want first.class man for their
Congressional candidate, and one who
will be powerful hard to beat, those
requisites are to be found combined in
the person Of Old Tom. Wren of Eu-
reka. 1t may not be "put," but
we thought we would "put" anyhow.

We received the following dispatch
from Philadelphia yesterday:
CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION,
May IL, 1876.
EDITORS EUREKA SENTINEL: Ia this
your local patriotism? Do you no
notice your own distinguished citizens
among those honored at the opening
ceremonies? [Signedl
GosHoRN,
Director General.
We apologize. We plead guilty of
inadvertence, of forgetfulness, of care
lessness, but not of wilful neglect.
We Wcre in receipt OF a dispatch from
the secretary of the Centennial Com
mission, but in the haste of compost
ton it was mislaid. We hasten to
remedy our error. The dispatch read
as follows:
PHILADELPHIA, May 10.
General Grant was escorted to his
seat on the platform by A. Botto and
r. L.. Guiberson, Esquires, distin-
guished citizens OF Nevada. The APP
pearance of these gentlemen was mag
nificent and the effect was most
marked. They were gorgeously at
tired, each in 4 full suit of silver bull
lion ornamented with red checks.
Dom Pedro was introduced to the por-
ulace by Gen. Harry Levy, also of
Nevada. Gen. Ievy's towering height
and superb figure lent great dignity to
the occasion, and dwarfed even the
grand physique of the Emperor.

Col. BLEDSoE'S BET.-Thursday's
Winnemucca Register contains the
following account of an aquatic adven-
ture of a former resident of Eureka:
LAST evening the indefatigable Col.
Bledsoe and the noted wag Jim Ran
dali, took a walk down to view the
raging Humboldt and see if the turbu.
lent waters had increased during the
preceding twenty-four hours. Arriv-
ing at the bridge, Randall made a wa
ger with the Colonel that he dare not
leap into the angry flood and swim to
a certain point. Bledsoe went down
into his pockets and produced the sum
Of nine dollars, which was instantly
covered by the valiant Jim. The
money was placed in the hands of a
mutual friend who WAS present, and
the Colonel, not waiting to divest HIM
self of his garments, plunged in 0 the
waters Of the turbulent stream. He
struck out like a duck, and while buff
feting with the angry water Randall
and the stakeholder made for town and
safely ensconced themselves if the
brewery, and then invited 4 large
crowd to drink at Bledsoe's expense.
The swimmer gained the point sought
for, and came back to the bridge wet
ter than u drowned rat, when to his
surprise he found that the stakeholder
and Randall had fled. The Colonel
made for own a pitiable looking OBJ
ject, water dripping from him and his
teeth chattering. He swears that he
has lost confidence in the human race.
and declares "the country is goin' to
the dogs"
