MUSIC HALL.

joe Mendes keeps tho best Of beer.
Down at his big saloon;
His waiter girls will serve you we'll,
Whilst Plumhof plays q tune.
Not only that, a lady sings
Sweet ballads of the day;
And she will surely charm you all
For which, no extra pay.
Upstairs there are some keno cards,
And other games of chance;
And should you soon get tired Of there,
You cross the way to dance.
So when you come from Ruby Hill,
Don't fail to make q call;
The only place to meet a friend
Is ut Joe Mendes' Hall. jy20tf

An Undesirable Element.

A very undesirable class of %loafers,
FOUNDERS and petty thieves are infest.
ing Eureka at the present time. Their
depredations, although confined to
articles of trihing value, are very an.
noying. and their frequency has given
rise to a general feeling of insecurity.
As suggested by a sufferer in a com.
munication to the SENTINEL in yester.
days issue, it would be q wise policy
TO enforce the provisions Of the Va
grant Act" If lawful measures fail to
suppress them, we fear that sterner
methods of procedure will be resorted
to by the suffering community.

A man with his feet frozen, and suf.
fering scutely from his misfortune,
made his way to Wizards, at Pine
Valley, on Wednesday last. He told a
most pitiful tale of his adventures,
having walked from Eureka TO that
point. He was caught in snow storm
between Mineral Hill and the Hay
Ranch, and passed the night previous
wandering through the valley in search
of shelter. He was taken care of, sup.
piled with nourishment, and provided
with sufficient money to reach Elko,
he claiming to have friends at that
place.

Jack Aikens, a miner on Ruby Hill,
was halted by a couple OF foot pads
Thursday night on the Hill road, near
the slaughter house, and a demand
made for him to throw up his hands.
Instead OF complying he took to his
heels, and made for town It a rapid
pace. The men fired two shots at him ,
which only had the effect of acceler-
ating his footsteps. He had been paid
off that day. and the robbers doubtless
g expected to make a haul. About this
time of the month the gentry are very
active, and it behooves lonely travellers
to keep on their guard.

stated that the big Raymond & Ely
mill would start up on ore from the
Day mine on that day. and also that
there we're new and fiattering develop

The unparalleled prosperity and
magnificent developments in our two
principal mines, the Eureka C~onsoli.
dated and Richmond. and the general
outlook all along the lode, is a source
of encouragement and q subject for
congratulation among all interested in
the welfare of Eureka. The steady and
uninterrupted outward flow Of bullion
that has characterized them for months
past, and one that promises to be in.
definitely continued in the future,
stamp the Base Range as n of the
most important silver producing re-
Rions inahe world, both in scope and
productiveness. We now yield the
palm to only one district, the Com
stock, and we are audacious enough to
believe that the time will come when
we will rival our lordly neighbor. OF
course we do not institute any present
comparison, as the output of that won
derful lode admits of none, but our
prospects at the present writing are so
bright that it is allowable for us to in
dulge in some slight exultation. From
the first discovery up to date, there
has been very little OF the hurrah or
furore that has attended almost every
other camp in the State. but we have
gone on steadily improving, learning
more applicable processes by expert.
ment, and making the most Of our re.
sources, until we have arrived at a
clear understanding of the value and
extent of the grand deposits that un-
derlie the mountains and bills in this
vicinity. Deep working has proved
their permanence, and as depth is OBJ
tanned, the ore bodies are more extern
sive and of higher grade. Throughout
the district the greatest activity pre-
walls, aud many properties are coming
into prominence by sheer merit and
alu of developments. Since last
September we have sent abroad a mill
lion a month, and as spring opens and
work is inaugurated, it is probable that
this amount will he increased one
third. The direct effect of this state OF
affairs has been to start an era OF inn
provements, and the town is taking
upon itself airs; substantial buildings,
elegant business structures and cosy
private residences, going up as IL by
magic. notwithstanding this increase,
we doubt there being an eligible house
to let in town, and the demand Is far
beyond the supply. We are of the
opinion that next summe will be the
liveliest season eve experienced on
the Base Range, and we are borne out
in our opinion by the present situation.
A Wedding to Come on at COrtez.
Joe Winzell will leave for Cortez to-
day or Tomorrow, taking with him a
minister of the Gospel, and on their
arrival the nuptials Of Joe Dean and
Miss Wenban will take place. The
young lady is the accom- plisbed daugh-
ter of Simeon Wenban, the proprietor
of the Cortez mine and mill, and is a
lady of rare graces and eduction.
Mr.. Dean is one of our principal stock
owners, and one of the solid men of
Eureka county. His worth and social
attributes are universally recognized,
and all of his friends-a host-will con
graduate him on his departure from a
state of single blessedness. We join
with them in the congratulations, and
wish him and his charming bride a
happy voyage down life's stream.

DEFERRED ARTICLES.
COMMUNICATED.

/ Mr. Editor. Il want to call your attention
to the need of more strenuous, severe and
certain laws in this State covering what are
called petty thefts, but-which frequently in
the aggregate, make something more. Every
week nearly we have an item or two in your
paper, stating the fact of some ones meat
house, hog pen or chicken coop, being robbed.
Now, sir, 1 hold, that with the proper
laws this can in great measure be stopped,
and would urge it upon you, that as you
in your paper represent the voice of great
many people in this county, that you cease
not to lcall the attention of our Legislators to
the fact of this need in the revision of our
laws, also of the direct responsibility resting
upon them-fOr the present condition of soci-
ETY.. You may ask why? My answer is this.
l am told that nothing of consequence
be- done with a person unless he steals
tUentg dollars worth. Now l want to know
if The trainers of such laws nre not in mea>
sure responsible for the stealing going op in
this county. say they are, for if we had
the proper legislation on this subject it would
deter men from committing crime. A legis-
lator is morally, and in every other eniight-
ened sense, bound to study the needs of his
constituents and to devote his time especial
ly during legislative session to bring about
those ends which viii insure his constituents
that he is laboriug for them and that he is
serving the people in the attainment of the
best laws possible for the good of all alike.
We do not send him to the Legislature to
have jolly time, as some seem to think by
their actions; neither do we send them there
for their personal aggraudzement, and de-
sire to call tho attention of our Legislators
from this county to the fact that zee, tic peo>
pie, expect them to labor earnestly for law
which will punish person for stealing five
cents worth, if it is carried out. If cut
my iuger the laws of nature are trampled
upon and consequently have to suffer the
penalty. IT | transgress a single point of
the law of God am to be punished fur it
II steal one cent am just much thief
as the person wlIo steals thousand dollars,
and all laws of morality and God hold me
just as responsble. Now, sir, 1 hold that
all principles of morality and religion re-
qure that sufficient laws be enacted to pre-
vent the one just much the other, and
if our Legislators do not give us these laws
they fail to do their duty, and will be held
responsible before God and man, for it is
giving the thief room and opportunity to
carry out his malicious designs with an as
surance beyond the fear of law, and while
the hard working farmer and honest aborer,
(for they are the principle sufercrs) are taxi
ing their rest which should be sweet, they
are disturbed by fears and dreams of some
prowling thief inspecting their premises,
which too often is realized in tho morning
By The loss of some property, which comes
under the head of petty thefts, and there
being no punishment for the offender, there
is no incentive to ferret him out I sms
Yours respectfully, A SUBSCRIBER.
