business connected with his profession,

ing. Mr.. Wren. in connection with other
capitalists in Eureka, has recently erected
a fine opera house in that city, which Is
said to be the most complete and best ap-
pointed edifice Of the kind in Nevada, east
Of Virginia City. The structure supplies a
need long felt in that place, as the former
building heretofore dignifed with the
name of an opera house was o mere shell

OF the Eureka Opera House is an induce
ment for first-class theatrical companies to

Captain Colgan Enters a vigorous
Protest against His Own Death.

We were truly pleased to learn some days
ago that our old friend. Captain J. C. Col
gan, was still in the land Of the living.
Tit necessary correction was then made.
The letter published below is from the Cap
tain and was received last night. 1t will
be observed that Captain Colgan is worth
a regiment Of dead men yet. He doesn't
behave a bit like a cold, cold corpse. On
the contrary, he seems as vigorous as
though he had never struck the pneumonia
atmosphere Of Bodie. For a fact. CAPTAIN.
we do not know exactly how the item about
your reported death got into the SENTINEL.
rms writer never saw Ill until il was pub
hshed. Some one-he cannot remember
who-gave it to II reporter. 1t is quite
likely that the informant got mixed and
gave the wrong name. AT all events, our
reporter had no personal acquaintance with
you, and published the item in good faith.
We repeat, that we are glad to hear in this
direct manner from Yourself that you
are still on mercy's side Of eternity. Hope
you will remain on the same side for a
century. We congratulate you on your
good health. We comply with your re-
quest and publish your letter:

Human pathy.

Riches take unto themselves wings and
fly away even treasures laid up in heaven
are Of little practical benefit in this world.
There Is nothing lasting or 80 sweet as hu-
man sympathy. The lady patrons Of Dr..
Hamilton say that when they are under
going tortures that no mortals but dentists
know how to %iniiict, there is nothing which
so alleviates their sufferings as that tender,
sympathetic grunt, so full of feeling and
pathos, to which the Doctor gives utterance
As he rams chisels, and all manner Of in
QUESTION tools, into aching teeth. The
only drawback to the Doctors popularity
is that he will stuff tissue paper, and rags,
and sheet rubber into ladies' mouths-and
how awfully dry a woman's tongue must
get when IL ia kept still 30 long.

San Francisco Big Bug.

The first bed bug that we have ever seen

page Of the San Francisco Stock Report as
we took it ont Of its wrapper yesterday
morning. 1t was about the size OF an
Owyhee turtle and was branded IS. r."
on its upper shell. 1t had evidently been
stall-fed, for ii made a break for the paste
pot as soon as it landed on the table. Pre-
suming it to be a pet Of the Stock Report

will hold 1t subject to the order Of u con-
temporary's foreman.

ernoon to devise;ways and means for a

take steps for a continuance Of the old Gus
tom of having a Christmas tree. An ex-
animation of the books Of the teachers
showed that 100 scholars have attended
regularly the past year. and that number
will be entitled TO presents. One OF the
teachers incidentally remarked that those
scholars who lived IN Ruby Hill were far
more punetual in attendance thar those
from Eureka, which certainly speaks well
for the Ruby Killers, considering that. Is
a rule, they walk from and to the Hill.
