Ore Sailing.

A stupid attempt to salt an ore sam
pie was made at the X. X. furnace
Monday last. A lot of high grade ore
from the Mountain Boy mine had
been delivered, and was being sampled,
it having been run down to a bucket
full, when the seller, finding his OPP
p%ortunity while Mr.. Porter's back was
turned, threw i'm a lot of silver filings.
1t WAS a very foolish attempt, ami INT
detected in a moment. as the particles
were plainly visible. OF course, samp
ling ceased at once, and that lot of ore
was rejected AS being too rich for any
use. The man acknowledged the corn,

cieut cause on which to base a criminal

Disturbed Their SIumbers.

The denizens of North Main street
and vicinity were awakened from their
peaceful dreams early yesterday morn

female Barbary Coaster, an inference
that was probably correct.

Tho sOanty

A casual visit To the County Hospital
yesterday convinced us that some &C
ton ought to be taken at once toward
putting that institution on a proper
basis. It certainly, at the present time,
falls to meet the requirements and de
mands made upon II, and the neces>i-
ties of the case call for some action.
The furniture il old and worn out. the
bedsteads rickety, crazy affairs that
threaten to fall to pieces on the least
~provncation, the mattresses old and
dllapidated, the bed clothing an az
gregation of rags and t%atters, u the
whole outfit gone to ruin and decay.
The articles have been in use for a
number Of years. and constant EN-
pioyment has broken them up until
no patching and mailing will Pct them
in u satisfactory condition. The hos
pital has been crowded for some time
last with patients, forced to seek shell
ter beneath its root. aud their suffer.
ings have been enhanced by the want
OF adequate accommodations. 1t Is
probable, from the present outlook.
that there will be no falling off in the
sick roll, aud commou charity re
quires hat the existing state OF affair,
should be remedied. 1t is the prov
ince of the Board of County Commits
sioners To provide for the wants of the
establishment, and the present pleth
ORIG state of the County Treasury
would seem to warrant any necessary
ex penditure of funds for the purpose
OF fl ting the building up with all the
needed furniture and appliances. We
hope the Board will give their at,en.
ton to the matter and authorize The
disbuI sement.

A PUBLIC LETTING SUGGESTED.

EDITOR SENTINEL: As l interpret
the signs of the times, as bearing upon
certain contemplated improvements to
be made this season, there is no doubt
that a majority of the Board of County
Commissioners have in view the erec-
ton of the new Court house elsewhere
than on the ground at present occupied
by the county buildings. That such
removal would be a gross injustice to
that portion OF the community VINO
gave, rs a free gilt, to the county when
young aud in great need the present
buildings, Is too plain TO admit OF a
doubt. 1t would constitute a breach
OF faith of such enormity Al not To he
tolerated by any right thinking man,
10 matter in what quarter OF the town
or county he may reside. l can hard
ly think hat our Commissioners viii
he guilty of so unjust "A trick, and yet
the general outcrop seems to point un-
m~istakably in that direction. Noting
the undue rush of official action in
this connection, it must he apparent to
every one thai there j. nc lime To he
lost. / therefore suggest that a public
meeting be called to protest in thnn-
der tones against removal. VIII
not citizens and property holders who
are interested, and all lair minded
men, join in a demonstration of this
kind Will not somebody take the
INITIATIVE Saturday night at the
Courthouse, it occurs to ne, would

A friend living in Philadelphia has a
sweet golden-haired little daughter, aged
three years, who is devoted to her father,
and endeavors, after her baby fashion, to
govern her actions by his own. This habit
causes much amusement in the family,
though the little one seems quite uncOn-
scious that she is the cause of it all.
Not long ago the child attended divine
service for the first time with her father,
and sat quietly and gravely in the pew
until the close of the sermon. 1t CHANGED
to be communion Sunday, and Mr.,
being communicant, went with others
tow ard the chancel, unconscious that his
little daughter was following him. As he
knelt and bowed his head, the baby Of
three years beside hum also knelt and
bowed her sweet face upon her tiny
hands. Those who saw the touching sight
were affected almost to tears, and nobody
attempted to re move the small communi-
cant. Not until my friend rose to return
to his seat did he discover the child, who
also rose, and slipping her little hand in
his, walked gravely toward the pew. The
clergyman, speaking of it afterwards,
said it was, in his opinion, the most beau
tiful sight he had ever seen.-Harper's
