ALL HAVE THEM.

Let us learn from the tinancier of New
Jersey, forvyerily he understandeth the arts
of the loaner. The man Of shekels whose
methods we describe was a strictly consei-
entious man and an elder in the, church. he
never took, above the legal rate OF interest,
he did not think it right to do So; but ne al.
ways managed to have a barn full OF Old
brokea-down horses and carriages that had
come aown from past generations-one
in particular that his great uncle Daniel had
used in his lifetime, and which, when new,
was a marvel of workmanship as well as ca
pacity.
Farmer Jones came one day with a note,
and wanted to raise some money. Its lace
value wassfive hundred dollars.
"Pretty hard times" said the Jersyman;
SHUT if You want three hundred dollars III
cash, andtthe Uncle Daniel carriage for that
paper, | must try and accommodate you"
The trade was made. Aboutt the time the
note became due, Jones, having tried his
best to realize on the vehicle, and as often
failed, applied to Mr.. Cain, another money
lender, to help him over the crisis. After
various expedients had been talked over and
rejected, Cain said:
Farmer Jones, the fools are not all
dead vet. Go find one, and get the carriage
off your hands"
"I've been trying for a year to do that
very thing" replied Jones. There's plen-
ty of tools about here-plenty; but they've
all got CARRIAGES.

Cups and Badges.

We were shown last evening some
elegant silver cups and a badge, de-
signed for prizes and imported by
NJ. III. Josephs, of the Golden Rule
store. One of the goblets stands to a
height of about ten inches, and is
beautifully engraved with a wreath
on one side and a stand of arms.
crossed muskets on the other. This
will be given TO the most skillful and
accurate shot at a future target shoot
ing contest. The cup, somewhat
smaller, will fall to the winner
of a hundred-yard foot race, to be
hereafter arranged. 1t has appro.
pirate emblems chased on one side,
representing two runners in costume,
and on the other an inscription. The
badge is to be given to the highest
scorer in a future rifle contest. 1t is
the intentention of the proprietors of
the new race track to inaugurate a
series of sports, and the above de-
scribed articles are but a sample of the
prizes that will be offered.

Star mine has yielded nearly $780,
600 worth of bullion per month for
three months past, and the indica-
tons are that it will soon develop
into a big mine. Muncey District, in
the Schell Creek mountains, where
Ned Brannan is developing a mine
for a Virginia company, is also con

much sought after. Three of these,
which are owned by the Silver Hill
Mining Company Of White Pine

of Chicago capitalists for
$3.50 900, and others have also been
bonded for lesser amounts.

Mr.. Allen Reed, a gentleman whose
residence adorns Mob Hill, has an an
tipathy to cats. Mr.. Reed has a trap
door in his kitchen, that opens into a
cellar. He also has a careless wife
who left said trap door open the other
night. Along toward the midnight
hour, a party of felines organized a
serenading party on his back wood
shed, and their cater waullngs and love
melodies had such an effect on Mr..
Reeds nerves that he arose in his
wrath and night shirt, seized a boot
jack, and rushed out into the kitchen
to fling that useful implement at the
exasperating cats, but he didn't. He
landed down in the cellar, and re-
ceived injuries that will confine him to
his bed for some days. The only real
comfort that he takes now is to lay
plans for the entire determination of
the feline race, and cuss his wife for
her heedlessness in leaving that eel
lar door open. He has plenty of
leisure for both of these soothing occu-

PALDIsADE, May 8, 1878.
EDITOR SENTINEL: o Dean, of
Cortez Valley, passed through town
this morning with some very fine stock
that he had bought while absent in the
Eastern States. The lot embraced
twenty head OF splendid mules, heavy,
large animals one of them weighs
100 pounds, and all are of extra size;
three fine jacks, two thoroughbred
stallions-one a t~wo-year-old magnii-
cent black Hambletonian, a fast trotter,
with a record of 2:22; he is a beauty.
The other is a dark brown horse, that
can trot inside of 2:40 with ease. Mr..
Dean purchased all Of the above stock

En- District.

The apathy prevailing in the Com
stocks anterior to the development of
Julia's prospects diverted the attention
of dealers to the outside, especially
those of the Eureka District. The
official news from this district. says the
Stock Report, and it is corroborated by
reliable experts, is extremely encour-
aging. The Richmond mine, owned
by English capitalists, has struck a
body of ore which is apparently mex
haustible. The Eureka Consolidated,
so say the reports, has been equally
fortunate, and the prospects of the
Jackson, Phenix, Hamburg and mines
of lesser note, are highly encouraging.

A ROYAL Feast.

The proprietors of the Parker sa-
loon, promise their patrons a royal
feast this evening. They will set one
of their elegant repasts, similar to past
efforts in that line, that have given
them a reputation and local fame. All
lovers of rare and appetizing dishes,
compounds that appeal to the grosser
senses, and give the %partakers a feeling
of happiness and contentment not to
be gained in any other indulgence,
will consult their interests and crafty
their tastes by visiting the Parker this
evening. Chris Molatesta will be on
hand to do the honors.

Leap For Liberty.

Kelley, the man convicted of as
sault with intent to rob, at the last
term of the District Court, and taken to
Carson by Sheriff Sias, jumped off the
train while running at its usual speed
between Browns Station and Wads-
worth. The prisoner being heavily
ironed, the Sheriff was confident that
he could not get away very far, and got
off the train to hunt his man, whom he
found about an hour afterwards, and
got aboard the first west bound freight
train. With the exception of cutting
his heel with the l6-pound chain that
was placed around his ankle, the pris-
oner sustained no'other injury.

Mr.. Fred. Fisk and wife departed for
California this morning. AS hereto
fore stated, Mrs. Fisk seeks the balmy
climate of the foothills of that State,
hoping in the change to find relief from
the severe attack of rheumatism with
which she has been suffering for the
past six months. 1t is the sincere wish
of her host of friends that she will be
restored to complete health. Mr.. Fisk
will remain absent about a month, and
during his stay Mr.. j. p. Edoff will
take charge of the business. He is a
very pleasant gentleman, and will at
once become a favorite with the com
munity.

Personal.

Mr.. d. E. Mccarthy, proprietor of
the Virginia City Chronicle, arrived
from the west, last evening, and we
had the pleasure of a visit from him
at the SENTINEL office. This. we be-
lieve, is the gentleman's first trip to
the Base Range, and he tarried but a
few hours, leaving for Cherry Greek
on the stage this morning, important
mining interests calling him to that
point. We hope he will arrange his
tour so as to take in Eureka on his
return, and sojourn with us for a
time. His sprightly, newsy journal
is a favorite all over the State, and
especially in Eastern Nevada, and
Macs friends number a host out this
way. We wish him a pleasant jour.

following: Yves. Travis and James j..

Justice Barker's court this forenoon,
on a charge of attempting to bride j..
5. zimmerman, a juror in the case of
Flaherty, Coleman and Mclaughlin
against Gwin, ct. al, were, upon a
hearing of the evidence, discharged.
The court found that the prosecution
had failed TO prove the criminal intent
in the cases. The evidence of the pros
ecuting witness, which, by the by, was
denied by the defendants, who were
allowed to testify in their own behalf,
only proves a casual observation as
having taken place between the parties.
