The regular monthly meeting Of the
County Commissioners was held yesterday,
all the members being present. But little
business was transacted, save acting upon
q number Of bills, all Of which, with one
exception, we're allowed, although several
were cut down fully one-half, q proceeding
that brought down the wrath Of several
parties upon District Attorney Merrill.
A petition, or rather what was intended to
be q petition. was presented from citizens
Of Ruby Hill, who desire the erection Of
q new schooi-house. The paper was SO
worded as to only state the desire of the
petitioners, without asking the Board to
grant their request, and it was returned
for correction. After allowing the follow

TREAcIIERous TRAPS.
An Occurrence ut Ed. Deans No
In the Programme.

An Occurrence at Ed. Deans Not
im the Programme.
In the SENTINEL of Saturday morning
we called attention to the numerous pit
falls that remain uncovered in the burnt
district. and suggested that the Trustees
should take steps to have them covered, as
accidents we're likely to occur at any time,
should they be left exposed. From the
back door Of Ed. Deans saloon one can
look into a well, on Swensson' s property, 20
feet deep. About 3 O'Clock on Sunday
morning two Scotchmen stepped out Of Ed.
Deans door to settle q triling dispute,
and each tried to level the ground with the
other. In their struggle they drifted to-
wards the well, the existence OF which
was unknown to them. and in a twinkling
both disappeared. That two men should
together fall a distance of 20 feet, and
that too in a hole not over five feet in d.
ameter, seems almost incredible, but it is
an actual fact, and after recovering from
the shock occasioned by the fall, they
started to finish the perfc rmance com
menced on top. Both were too drunk to
do each other any bodily injury, and only
succeeded by their bowling jargon in con-
vincing the few passers-by that Satan and
some Of his imps we're trying to make their
exit through Swenssnn's ground. How to
extricate them was the all-absorbing topic
in Dams saloon. and Mr.. George Fay ca
vorted around town for half an hour in
search Of a ladder. After finding one Of
sufficient length, he lowered it into the
well, only to whack one Of the belligerents
on the head, And in shifting it brought it
down on the Uranium of the other. II Q
anathemas bestowed upon the luckless
George would have annihilated a less
plucky man, but he stuck to bis task man
fully and fiually succeeded-ia landing one
of them on top. The other. in reply to
| Georges polite invitation to come out, re-
piled that he might Ego to the devil"
| The well, he said, was the most comfort
able place lie had yet found, and he pro-
posed to stay. He did remain until a late
honr in the morning. when he climbed out
and sought mors comfortable and extern
sive quarters.

Liz Of Misfortune.

Mr.. John Mckinley, tie father Of Mrs.
r. H. Egleston, Of Eureka, and who re-
Gently died at Winnemucca, was in his
time the founder and owner Of more thea
tiers than n other man on the Pacific
coast. If not in America, was owner Of two
bo' els and a fine residence that cost him
not less than two hundred thousand dol
lars; all Of which he lost by fire and other
misfortunes. 1t is not q matter Of sur
prise that even such an iron constitution
as he possessed finally succumbed to such
q series of reverses.

spumk.

The people Of Eureka, Nevada, says the
DAILY Exchange" are spunky and indie
pendent. After the recent fire had swept
away half the town. with a snow storm
blowing delights all to pieces, they were
compelled to ask for help. But the en-
bers had scarcely died out when lumber
was on the ground, and, Phenix- like, Eu-
reka rose from its warm ashes. The poor
and needy being provided for with the
bounty which poured in, answering the
appeal as only California and Nevada and
California can answer such appeals, Eu-
reka telegraphed to all friends: "Send
nothing more. Thankful for what you
have done. We want nothing more" We
have known communities that would have
kept on receiving and begging, and beg
ging and receiving until the blowing Of
Gabriel's last horn. Eureka's people are
made OF sterner stuff.
