Eureka is cursed with as vicious and
annoying a set of hoodlums as ever
were turned loose upon q commu-
nifty. Dozens of boys, from twelve to
eighteen years of age. roam the streets
until q late hour at night, making the
air hideous with their yells and pro-
family, insulting respectable people,
and trusting to their tender years for
immunity from the consequences OF
their misdeeds. They are to be found
haunting he hurdy houses, aping he
bad traits of older roughs, and having
but ID aspiration-the ambition to be-
come q gambler. Unfortunately, the
hoodlums fail to rise even to that
height. generally recruiting the ranks

is the great rallying place for the
crowd of youth described. A dozen

piercing whistles, and loud and vulgar
talk, succeed in making 1t uncomforta-
BILE, and spelling the amusement OF the
more respectable portion OF the auui-
ence. To our knowledge, many of our
citizens refrain from patronizing the

Jackson.

Louis Loschenkohl camein from the
Pancake coal mine yesterday and
brought with him the Hooker pump
that had been used at that point up to
the cessation of operations on that
property. AS soon as some minor re-
pairs, such as tightening the valves,
etc., are completed, it will be placed in
the main shaft at the Jackson mine. 1t
is of sufficient capacity to keep the
lower levels free of water, and allow
the work of sinking, which has been
delayed by the inflow, to 90 On unin-
terruptedly. Raby Hill, especially in
the vicinity of the Jackson, presents q
very busy appearance just at present.
A large force of men are employed
grading the roadbed of the branch
railroad, and constructing . new
dump to the west of the hosting
works. These improvements will be
completed by the LIST inst. In the
mine prospecting is being carried on,
and as soon as the outside arrange
ments are finished an added force of
miners will he put to work stopping
out and extracting ore from the 450-
foot level,

The Court.HOuse Well.

For some time past the water drawn
from the Court house we'll has pos.
sessed a peculiar taste, something be-
tween the pungent flavor OF a saline
spring and the fiat. insipid SAVIOR of
Settler water. The officials who
abound i'm and around the county
edifice, aud who daily quaff copious
draughts of the liquid. became accus-
toned to it, and were fond Of compar-
ing it to the article furnished by
Major Mccoy, much to the disadvan-
tage of the latter. AS these qualities
that made it such a favorite rather in
creased with time, and the odor of the
liquid acquired a smell usually found
in close proximity to- a slaughter
house. Sheriff Sias determined to in
vestlgste the well, and see TO what
this quality was owing. A man
IA sent down the shaft yesterday
morning, and his first discovery was
an old water soaked hide of some de-
ceased bovine, which, from its appear
ance had laid, like truth, at the bottom
for a considerable period Of time. Fur
ther ex plorations brought forth vari-
Gus collections of old hats, dead cats,
etc., the presence of which solved the
mystery, and accounted for the taste
and odor of the water. Major Nc
Coy's works are in the ascendency at
present. and the county officials have
unanimously resolved to eschew the
we'll and it's contents in the future.

Horrible Murder.

From the Coso "News" Of the 18th.
Again we are compelled to chronicle
a murder in Darwin, me most foul
and atrocious. and which will not re-
feet very favorably upon the fame OF
this place. Nancy Williams, the MUIR
dered woman, who was keeping a
lodging house here, Is well-known in
most every town in Nevada, Idaho
and California, and, although leading
a dissolute life, she bore the reputation
of being one of the kindest and most
liberal OF women, alleviatipg distress
by her means whenever an opportun-
ity offered, and giving from her own
purse TO all public enterprises. She
was supposed to have about her per-
son or secreted in her house quite a
large sum of money, and to obtain
this booty undoubtedly was the in
centive to the murder. The murder
was committed some time during the
night of the 18th instant, but her dead
body was not discovered until four
o'clock next morning. AT the latest
accounts no clue had been obtained
to the perpetrator OF the foul crime.

TuscarOra EIOpement.

The Reriew of the 18th has this item:
"On Sunday last another elope-
ment occurred in this place. Samuel
stark, the engineer at the Grand Prize
mill, and Miss Jennie Pierce being the
couple on matrimony bent. The de-
parture was made about hall. past one
O'Clock p. NJ, and the couple had al
most an hour the start of the young
lady's parent. who mounted a horse
and followed them, but took the
wrong road after following them three
or four miles, and then returned
home. When last heard from the
runaways were in Battle Mountain,
and were pursuing their way to a
place where they could get spliced."

A crowd of well-known citizens,
among whom were Pete Caravan,
Charlie Livingston, Judge Atwood,
Recorder Horn, JEFF Work and others,
assembled in the Justices court room
last evening. As a matter Of course,
biblical subjects formed the principal
topic of discussion, and the Lords
prayer came up incidentally in the
course of the conversation A heated
argument ensued as to its wording,
and. Notwithstanding the religious
tendencies OF the disputants, nuIner-
u bets were laid as to the form Of
that invocation. Pete Caravan, on be-
ing called on TO repeat IL, started in on
the Ten commandments, and insisted
that that portion OF Exodus was the
formula. Horn secuted at the idea,
and gave his version of It, commence
ing with, Now l lay me down to
sleep" etc. He got as far as 'if / die"
and his memory failed him. he sat
down, and Livingston Clipped in with
the statement that he was perfectly
familiar with the prayer, and that the
original document could be found in
tDt uTSI CDdDttT Vi ITOvcTDS. Jcu
differed with Charlie on that point,
and thought it would be discovered i'm
Revelations. Judge Atwood looked
wise and did not commit himself, but
suggested that a Bible be produced,
and the dispute authoritatively settled
by reference to the sacred volume. A
half an hour Vas consumed in trying
to find that book, and a messenger
was dispatched to the SENTINEL office
after II was proved hat no one in the
crowd had one. We loaned him our
we'll thumbed copy with strict i%njunc-
tons rs to its careful handling. The
messenger came back after an hours
time spent in vainiy searching for the
prayer, and desired further informa-
ton as to its locality. We turned TO il
in a moment, and went to the court
room to point it out. A blank look
spread over their faces as we read that
simple and pathetic appeal, and after a
few minutes whispered talk all bets
were declared off. Caravan reverent-
ly turned over the pages of the work
until he came TO Parson Kelly's name
on the fly leaf, when he excitedly ex-
claimed that The book was no good au-
thorily, but had been fixed up by the
Psrson for some sinister purpose, and
he was willing to wager that Rev. Mr..
Gray's copy was an entierely different
version. We left them wrangling
over this new point, and learn that
after our departure it was agreed that
the question should remain in abey-
ance until that gentleinan's return,
and then be submitted to him FOR fur
Their calculation.

A Partisan Landmark DAMNED

Another interesting monument Of old
Paris or rather what was ono the coun-
try round Paris, is about to disappear
for ever. The little parish church of
Notre Dame d'Auteuil, built in the
twelfth century, with a view to the
wants Of a village of 800 inhabitants,
has for some time past been found too
small for a population of 10, 600; for, after
all that has been said and done since
1889, people still go to mass in France,
and even in Paris. Another and posi-
bly, more pressing reason for pulling
down the church at Auteull was to be
found in the dilapidated condition of
the edifice, which constantly threatens
the worshipers with destruction. The
last Municipal Council Of Paris voted n
sum of $50, 900 towards the erection of
u new building and the purchase of a
larger site. The Director Of Public
Works fol the City of Paris has, how
ever, reckoned the necessary expenses at
$3.50, 600. The cure of Notre Dame
d'Auteuil has proposed to contribute
$50, 900 Of the required sum himself,
while his parishioners have engaged to
furnish an additional contribution Of
$40, 600. On the motion of NJ. Clavel,
the present Municipal Council has ac-
copied these handsome offers, and has
resolved, without a division, or even a
discussion, that the new church shall
be forthwith erected. 1t has also voted
an additional sum Of S31 400 towards
the same object.
