EUJCOT xCeO1eU:
In answer to the article that appeared In the
New Ulm Post ON the 7th inst. relative to my &C.
ton as informer in the case Of Mr. Crone's arrest
for Sabbath breaking, lwonld say that every part
ardly. never in any manner employed A. schalk,
or any one else, to act as atpy, but the facts are
that one Of Mr.. Crones sons employed him to 90 up
and buy quarter of a pound oftobaceo at Jacobs,
on the same Sunday, with money furnished by
CrOne. Having done that he bought some dried
apples at Crone's store. These facts he told in my
brothers store the next day. and under the condi
tions of the understanding made when the petition
was signed complained Of Mr. Crone. It is needless
for me to state that If this matter ofseng some APP
pies had been the only instance ofAlr Cr0nes break
ing the law, and his word, no legal proceedings
would have been taken. When first circulated the
petition to have the stores closed onSunday Mr. 30.
gen encouraged me in the matter, in his paper, but
when ne found that it was an unpopular move in tho
eyes OF Some Of his friends, he in his usual manner
went back on his own convictions, and the convic.
lions OF every rational man, and attempted to njae
me- by exiting the prejudice of class Of our peo-
pies Whose interests were in no way consumed

in a great measure the "Conestoga
wagons" so famous in Pennsylvania from
Colonial tines until the advent OF rail-
roads, can numbering down Main street
yesterday, and stopped in front of Mr.. W.
H.. Clark's store. An inspection Of the
strange looking vehicle disclosed the fact
that it WAS really a house on wheels, and
for the accommodation of sheep-herders.
Its interior contained everything necessary
in kitchen and bedroom, and the newt
able stove-pipe protruded from the canvas
top. It'll the property of Mr.. Joe Winzel,
and has been doing service on Duck
water the past winter, where Joe has
herded his sheep. These sheep, number
ing 3, 200, were being driven to Hunting
ton Vail ey, and these travelling quarters
were following in their wake. 1t is a novel
continuance, and one which only an
ingenious mind would suggest.

EUREKA, April 10. 1879.
EDITOR SENTINEL A note in the SEN
T1NEL of this morning says :. almost every
question has two Sides" Some may, per-
haps, have three sides. 1t seems to me,
however, that Mr.. Campbell's side is sub
ject to a construction not at all pleasing to
some Of the taxpayers, or even to Mr..
Campbell. One may readily suppose there
was an understanding between the Assessor
and Commissioners, by which the railroad
was to be cinched. II this be a fact, it
certainly was not the desire Of the people.
Very few desire to sec any injustice done
the railroad.
The officers Of the county are only the
servants Of the people. The Assessor n
Commissioners have their part to perform,
and should do it strictly according to law.
The law requires the Commissioners to fix
the rate of taxation on the first Monday in
April. 1t also fixes the time in which the
assessing and collecting shall be done. 1t
requires the Assessor to ascertain how
much property there is, and to fix . cash
valuation Of all, according to his means OF
ascertaining the value, aud admits Of no
compromise or Jumping OF property, by
which any favoritism may be shown, and
| any departure from this rule is q violation
| Of his oath of Office. l AN clearly of the
| opinion that all the people require, or have
any right to expect, is . fair and equitable
assessment. such as the law directs, max
ing the rich and poor share alike the bur-
den Of taxation. When that is done, the
taxpayer will have no just cause of COM
| plant, and If the Assessor fails in any par
| ticular, it then will be the duty of the
Commissioners to equalize the assessments
by raising or lowering the assessment.

Its E~xhtlarattng Emeets-How nm
Enterprising Lady Met the wants
Of the Boys.
Wednesday evening was uncomfortably
cool, and the prospects for the sale Of ice
cream and lemonade at the Methodist Fes-
tival looked decidedly slim early in the
evening, and the ladies' in charge Of those
two stands had little hopes Of swelling the
exchequer Of the church TO any appreciable
extent. So long a time had elapsed, how
ever. since any one had enjoyed the luxury
Of a plate of cream that a demand for that
article was a natural sequence, but nobody
wanted lemonade. For a time the lady in
charge'of the lemonade stand, and who il
noted as being one Of the %jolliest and most
miscellaneous Of her sex, folded her hands
complacently, and saw the managers OF
other stands dispose VI their wares, etc.,
rapidly. and, in some instances, at fabu-
lous prices, while her drawer did not even
contain a two-bit piece. 1t was more than
human nature could stand, and she set her
wits to work to remedy such q state OF
affairs, and nobly she succeeded. For some
u~naccountable reason there was q sudden
demand for lemonade, and it was a notice.
able fact that instead Of having q chilling
influence on those who INDUCED it had q d.
rectly contrary effect. A good deacon, who
had taken mortal offense at the SENTINEL's
local from some trivial cause, embraced
him ~affectionately, and said he was a devil
ish good fellow, in fact q whole team, with
the dog right under the cart. A young
gentleman prominent in Main street circles,
and usually OF a quiet, tactiturn DISPOSE
ton, astonished his friends by making love
to all the pretty girls in the room. An
other individual, whose cordial invitation
to take a glass we had declined, regarded
us with a look OF ineffable disgust, and
sarcastically observed that it was evident
we didn't know the ropes" The whole
affair was a puzzling mystery to the SENTI-
NEL's representative, which was finally un-
ravelled yesterday morning. Mr.. Kicker
in his perambUlati0ns went behind the lem
onade table, and discovered Q suspicious
looking black bottle labelled methodist
lemonade" An examination disclosed the
fact that it was pure, unadulterated Bour-
bon, and the cat was out of the bag. TIT
lady who managed that table knew q thing
or two, and had supplied this boys with
lemonade with 'a stick in it." OF course
there was q devil of q muss, in certain
circles, at which the fair culprit laughed
good naturally. In the meantime an in
v~estigation Of certain members Of the
Good Templars is talked OF.

THE SULLIVAN ACCIDENT.

Statement 81 the Gentlemen VIII
Gave the Signal.
There seems TO be . desire among tbs
miners Of Ruby Hill 70 bring out all Of
the facts connected with the unfortunate
accident by which Daniel Sullivan lost hia
life. The SENTINEL Is DESTROYS Of giving
every one and all sides . fair hearing.
Below we publish . communication from
Mr.. James Ironside. the gentleman who
rang the bell, giving his version Of the sad
affair:
ErBY Hill, April 10. 1879.
EDITOR SENTINEL: In the account OF
the Coroner's inquest upon the remains Of
Daniel Sullivan, killed ut tho Richmond
mine. In your issue Of yesterday, there
occurs the following sentence: what yet
remains TO be explained, 10 who gave the
signal" In this connection allow me 70
make the following statement.
l was on the 500-foot level, next TO the
shaft, when the second load Of men came
down. The cage descended 10 within three
feet Of the station level. Some Of the men
on the cage said: Ring her down; she is
too high to get off," l then caught hold
Of the bell rope and gave t,oo distinct bells,
still holding the rope in my hand ready 10
give . stop bell when the cage should be
lowered to the station level. No attention
being given to the bells rung, some OF the
men on the cage said: LET us get off," l
then let go Of the rope and the men began
getting of. Four Of the men had landed
OF the station, and Sullivan, the fifth man,
was in the act Of stepping of. At this
moment the cage started up with such q
sudden and reckless bound as to leave him
no chance to save himself. Instantly there
was a cry to stop her, when two men near
the shaft caught the bell rope and rang.
but all to no purpose. The cage went
clear to the surface. l have abundant tes-
timony from men who witnessed the sad
occurrence to bear me out in the shove,
and l am at any time ready to substantiate
the same beyond the peradventure Of .
doubt. Very respectfully,
JAMES IRoNsIDR.

A Prosnerous County.

Under this heading, the "Silver State ="
has the subjoined regarding our county !:
1.-THE financial prosperity of Eureka is
due to its mines, which have, since the Or
ganization Of The county, six years ago.
produced millions Of dollars worth Of
bullion, and are to-day paying more divi-
dends than all the other mines ct
the State combined. Tho two prin-
cipal mines Of the district, the Rich
mond and Eureka Consolidated, pay
regular monthly dividends, and though
their bullion product is not so large as
that Of several Of the. Comstock mines, the
cost of its production, Notwithstanding the
ore is base, and has to be smelted, is
proportionately much less than on the
ComstOck."

MUSICAL l.
Projected COmstOek BENEFIT to .
Lady formerly OF Eureka.

Projected COmstOek Benent to q
Lady formerly OF Eureka.
Miss Lizzie Murphy will be remembered
by most Of our citizens as a lady Of rare
musical talent. She was married to Mr..
Murtha some years ago, who was subse-
quently killed by a railroad accident in
Kansas. Returning to Virginia, a year or
two later, she married a Mr.. P~orteous.
Her splendid vocal powers have made her
q great favorite on the Comstock, and now
a movement is on foot to send her to Eu-
rope to complete her education. She writes
to inquire Of us whether the people Of Eu-
reka would be likely to assist her should
she give a concert here prior to her depart
ure. Inasmuch as she was always highly
appreciated in Eureka, we have no hest
fancy in saying that in our judgment they
would be much pleased to do 30. The
Enterprise" has the following:
We have been informed in confidence
that some Of the public-spirited ladies Of
| Virginia City who heard the wonderful
purity and marked improvement, at Mr..
Eells' concert, Of Mrs. Porteous' (nee
Murtha) voice, have determined to extend
to her a public benefit, with the design of
| raising funds enough to enable Mrs.
Porteous to go to Europe and commence q
thoroughly musical training. We presume
that it is not generally known that az let
Mrs. Porteous has received only the rudi-
ments Of a musical education. Those best
qualified to Judge have faith to believe
that she possesses the germs Of q wonder
full singer. 1t is to give her voice and brain
a trial that this concert is designed. She
has friends in England who will take care
of her when she reaches them. The OBJ
ject is to forward her and her little children
to these friends. There is no question that
she Possesses a most rare voice, and what
its possibilities may be can only be tested
by a trial in the only country where per-
feet masters of the musical art are found.
An Austin girl the other day astonished
the finest critics Of Eu ope by her marvel
GUS singing. Who knows but just such a
triumph awaits this Virginia City lady.
We are certain that the generous men and
women of this city will give her the benefit
of whatever doubt there may be, and give
her q testimonial which will maxi her de-
termined to render back the kindness
shown her in a way which will be a gratifi-
cation to all who contribute. A New Eng
land girl went away to Europe some years
ago to study music. When she left home
there were other girls in her native town
who sang almost or quite as well. But
when she returned and entered the old
church unapnounced and Joined in the
singing of a simple hymn, every other
voice was hushed in a moment, and since
then the most cultivated people Of all the
great cities Of the Union have delighted to
honor her. All singers cannot be Careys,
but zone cannot be great without making
a brave struggle TO be 30.
