The funeral ceremonies of the late
George Hendricks, yesterday, were at
tended by a large of friends
and aequsintances. Deceased was uni
versally esteemed by those who
were thrown into his society, and his
pleasant and sunny DISPOSE
ton endeared him 10 all who knew
him. He was cut off in the prime OF
life, just As an honorable and useful
career was opening to him, and his
untimely death was a sudden surpri-e
and shock To tine circle in which he
moved. Everybody present were anx
iou> to add their tribute Of respect TO
the cold clay and assist at the last sad
rites. The Miners Union turned out
in full force. some 200 members CT that
organization following the hearse and
pail hearers, and a long string of car
riages and men on horseback brought
up the rear. At the grave the simple
but impressive Episcopal burial serv
ice vas read Ly the Rev. c. b. Craw-
ford, At the conclusion of which the
clods fell upon the coffin, and all that
was mortal was consigned to the earth.

Narrow Escape.

Judge Doolan, of Ruby Hill, while
out driving yesterday, in the neigh
borhood of the depot, attempted to
make a short turn, and was thrown
out of his buggy, falling on his head
and shoulders, and completely stun
ming him. A number of men working
at the freight depot came to his assist
ance and carried him to the platform
where he shortly revived. The team
ran a short distance, but were caught
before breaking any of the attach
menis. All who witnessed Mr.. Doo-
lan's fall consider that the gentleman
had a very narrow escape from death,
as it was their opinion at the time thai
he had broken his neck.

Sunday Services nj Ruby Hill.

Our regular correspondent at Ruby
Hill sends us the following:
EDITOR SENTINEL: Rev. j. NJ. De
LaMatyr preached in the Miners
Union Hall Sunday evening"; text,
Matthew, V. chapter. XIV. verse: Ye
Are the Light of the World" Mr..
De LsMatyr presented numerous IL
Illustrations, referring to the different
lights and the effect they have on man
materially. None is equal to that
light which is infused into the sou OF
man by the spirit of God. The dis
course was very impressive as well as
practical. He referred to Mr.. Kemp
lhorne, who died in Eureka a few
days ago. He was a Christian young
man, attentive to all means of grace,
but yet hs uttered words of regret, be-
cause he did not live more consistently
with his profession. and let his light
burn brightly. He rejoiced as he
thought the rays of light from the
eternal throne had burst upon his
view.
In closing his sermon, Mr.. De La
Matyr entreated all Christians to let
their light shine before the world, that
others might be led to glorify their
Father which is in heaven.
Mr.. De LaMatyr is much respected
by the people of the Hill, and they
manifest a desire that his presence be
oftener with them.
All of the mines were closed down
Yesterday afternoon, to allow the
miners to attend the funeral of the late
George Hendricks. j. f. NJ.

We clip the following from the Car.
son appeal: In Aurora, Eugene Ros.
coe n Ethel Roscoe. uncle and niece,
were brought to trial Saturday for the
crime OF incest. The mau and woman
have been for a number of years past
living IN the same house i'm Adobe
Meadows. the man running a ranch in
connection with his brother, who lived
~ the saine house with him. Roscoe
Is a wldower. having achild about nine
years q For some time II has been
the common talk in the neighborhood
IN which they lived, that Roscoe and
his niece were living together as man
u wife; although Roscoe at that
time always acknowledged the oma
TO be his niece. About the first of this
month Roscoe and his niece started to-
gether for san Francisco. At Will
liams' station, en- the Carson road, the
woman gave birth to a child.
Says the Enterprise of the 10th: The
remains of a young child was found by
a party of laborers engaged in grading
Summit street, Virginia City. The
body was very richly clad, tho dress
being OF some material resembling
silk. and the new white wooden un-
derclotbes being embroidered TO the
depth of four or five inches al the bot
tom. Over the body. az it lay in the
box, was tucked a Virginia Enterprise,
dated September 10. 1877. The box
was marked Hatch Brothers.

The Enterprise says: Tip Orndorf,
who, some weeks since, was reported
TO have been killed among the Union
Pacific car robbers, and all that kind
OF unpleasant thing, arrived here yes
terday morning, safe and sound. He
hasn't been hunting n bullion or
treasure trains that he knows of.
From the Esmeralda Herald we learn
that after many years of dull times
and stagnation in business, when from
a thriving mining town which cast
nearly 1900 votes. it was nearly de
serted, Aurora is again coming to the
front as a promising mining district.
The Enterprise says: James Green,
a carman at the sierra Nevada mine,
had the little finger of his right hand
20 badly crushed yesterday morning,
that amputation was necessary. The
finger was caught between the car and
a post swelling ground having forced
the post out of place.
The dead body of a man was found
in a tunnel west Of Gold Hill, on Sat
urday last. 1t was not identified, and
the remains we're taken in charge by
the Coroner.
Dan De guile and Prof. Stewart are
having a discussion on astronomical
matters. Dan has the last word, with
the rock sharp still to hear from.
There is now no snow in the Sierra

where it usually falls to the depth of
twenty or twenty-five feet in winter.

naval captain in the United States ser
wee. On iii death Of her husband she
remained in Baltimore under the care of
her cousin Archbishop Egglestuu, who
placed her in supervision OF st. Nmcent's
Asylum for Orphans on First street in
that city. The institution WAS formerly
in charge Of the Black Cap Sisters. who
refused to retire until threatened with
legal process. A year later Mrs. Keith
and her infant daughter were kidnapped.
and conducted 10y one Lovegrow to the
Mount Hope lunatic asylum, where the
mother was furcihly detained for seven
years, being moumed as dead by her
relatives. She finally regained her
liberty through the interference Of
Archbishop Hendricks, and returned 10
her father in New York. In search uf
health she went 10 Williamsburgh, Va.
where sho was again Kidnapped, and
confined in Inatic asylum for eighteen
