Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1878-11-01

Holiday presents are q necessity the world
over. and nothing is more lasting. beauti-
flying and appropriate than iewelry, or an
elegant selection from the various silver
ware sets, which are to be seen in the
large establishments which deal in that
line. in our cities.
To supply the trade Of Eureka for this
brand of the holiday trade, mr.. P. Ste!er
will take a trip to San Francisco about the
10th Of the present month, that he may
personally superintend the purchase Of
such articles as the demands Of our people
require; and such a rich display as lie will
array before the Eurekans upon his return.
We predict, has never been shown in the
town.
Mr.. Steler. whose advertisement is under
New To-day. in another column of this
mornings SENTINEL, offers . splendid
feature in this trip Of his to the Bay-he
will take orders for any speciality that may
be desired. For instance. if anybody want1
a particular article to present to anyone,
or for their own use, the gentleman will
fill the order to the letter.
In conclusion, Mr.. Steler states that
ne muss haso coiu Where"itn 10 pur-
chase a complete assortment, and
only requests that those who owe
him will come forward and respond
with the ready cash as quickly as
possible. Another thing: He has made a
great reduction in the prices Of his pres.
ent stock. in order to make room for the
latest patterns, and renew, as much o.
possible, his entire list Of goods. He has
a large stock still on hand, from which
almost any M could satisfy himself az to
a choice, and his prices are now such that
no one could find fault with them.
Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1878-11-01

Within a corral, at the upper-cnd Of
town, there are two jacks, and they have
been browsing of the rocks. chips, old
manure piles. and the bark Of the posts,
until they are qnite tame. The other day
we noticed three little fellows busy har-
Messing the animals up with baling rope
every iota of the harness was manufactured
Of this rope excep. a couple Of collars, and
one of them was rs large as the picture
frame we are accustomed to view the photo
graph of Balaam's ass in. Finally the
harness was arranged satisfactorily, and
then the team was hitched 20 an old truck,
such as is used about our grocery stores,
and with the two boys to push at the
handles, the driver mounted aud put the
brad to the of jack. There was a groan
from the animal, and then the boys pushed
the truck on to his heels aud he kicked
gravel so fast that the lads thought the
proprietor of the corral must be shooting
buckshot into their faces. They beat a
hasty retreat to q neighboring wood-pile,
while the jacks got up a wonderfully rapid
rotary motion, at last climbing the corral

Politics all the Go.

These are fine times for a reporter. A
SENTINEL employee walked three miles
yesterday afternoon, upon hearing that
they had struck it rich in the Poorman's
Friend, to see the Superintendent Of that
m ne, and to the interrogatory Of "what
are the prospects, up your way?" he
answered.:
"Oh, my boys are only waiting to see
who the Workingmen are going to
nominate.
Rep.-Well. l heard you were taking out
ere hat would assay $4,000 per ton, from
your mine?
Supt.-Got lots Of ore. but we shan't do
anything until after election.
The reporter next struck the foreman Of
the Pee Dee.
Rcp.-How's things at the Pee Dee?
Foreman-Nothing doing until after
election. Started in to work the first Of
the week. but there was tho much hilarity
around-whisky, cigars. etc.
The reporter here met . rancher, and
Thought he was all right for an item.
Rep.-How's crops over your way
Rancher-Crops don't amount TO . d-n.
but we don't care; the Democratic ticket
Ia solid all along the gulch. Got any dark
mules to jump into the race for office

It's nothing but politics here. there and
everywhere.
