For upward of twenty-five years Dr. Light hill has been at the head of aa extensive met ropolitan practice, devoted exclusively to the relief and cure of Deafness, Catarrh, aud dis eases of the Throat, Lungs and Nervous Sys- tenn, and it is with pardonabIe pride that he refers to the extraordinary success which at of the highest practical importance, render ing treatment so effectual that relief is expe- rienced at once, and permanent cures are of ten effected in the most stubborn and aggra- vated cases; and it is one of the happy fea- lures of his method that the applications cause neither pain nor distress, and can be req lily administered to the most timid or nervous person. A candid opinion will inva- cure, and no case will be accepted for treat ment which does not present reasonable chance for success, while those who place themselves under Dr. Lighthi1's professional eft guaranteed by science, skill, and an ex- tensiye experience.

 Dr. Lighthill takes pleasure and pride in submitting to the consid- eratiOn of those interested the fol- lowing statement of MT. T. M. Cox. an old and prominent resident of New Haven.
Haven.
A Happy Experience.

(From the Journal and Courier, July 10.)
 We take pleasure in presenting to our read CTS the following card from MT. T. M. Cox ain old resident of New Haven, and a gentle man highly respected and widely known in our business and social circles. The state ment of his happy experience of Dr. Light hills treatment is full of interest and will be deservedly accepted by our community with the utmost confidence. Testimony of this nature and character reflects great credit on Dr. LighthilTs ability and skill, and cannot fail to establish him in public confidence.
 NEW HAVEN, July g.
 It gives me great pleasure to bear witness to the remarkable skill of Dr. Lighthin and the successful results of his treatment For the past thirty-six years had been troubled with catarrhal complaint, which was very annoying and often interfered with my swal- lowing and breathing Of late years it at- tackled my hearing, impairing it to consid- erable extent, and as 1t kept constantly in creasing upon me it subjected me to serious inconvenience One of Dr. Lighthilrs pa- tients, finding himself greatly benefited by his treatment, advised me to place myself un- der his care and happily did so. Dr. Light hill effectually removed the catarrhal com plaint and all it's attendant troubles, and re- stored my hearing to it's former perfection and acuteness. know Dr. Lighthi1l's repu- tation is so well known that any recommen- dation on my part is scarcely necessary, but I feel like discharging duty to the afflicted in New Haven and vicinity to make this pub lie statement of my case, so that others may be enabled to embrace this opportunity of obtaining relief
 My happy experience of the results of Dr. Lighthilrs efforts has taught me to appreci- ate fully the value of specialties in medical practice, and feel assured that few min utes' conversation with Dr. Lightnill will con- vince the most skeptieal of the fact that he is a master of his profession.

And all the boisterous clements are at work warning with each other in wild tumult. Old Sol the while, as if weary with the strife, comes boldly out, stares the storm king out of countenance, sets his rainbow of promised peace and sinks into his purple couch to rest. A glorious sunset witnessed after day so crowded with delights, leaves us with little wish for more, and we gladly climb into our coach, and at 8 rattling pace we descend the road towards home, passing through Sleepy Hollow, around which the poetic legend of Rip Van Wrinkle clusters. At a hotel here there occurred some years since an episode which illustrates the excellence of gentle re- hinder. Among a coach load of mountain tourists was a gentleman who was the very soul of generous jolity, and as the coach drew up before the door of the s'Rip Van Wrinkle House. his pressing invitation was by all accepted to partake of good cheer at his expense. Every palate refreshed, the voy- agers settled back in their seats, the driver drew up his lines and was about to start when the genial and ready-witted landlord, stepping out to the door of the coach and addressing our jolly friend, said: ''Mr. H., should you happen to lose your pocketbook, you may be sure you haven't had it out in my house P' The score was paid and alesson of thoughtfulness was learned.
 AS the shades of night were settling we drove into Palenville, and somewhat weary with our doings we sought with relish the repose that awaited us. The extent of the region known as t"The Catskills'' cannot be realized except by visit, and then only by the most persistent travelling about In hurried sketch but little justice can be done to them, but let us hope that their health giving charms may continue to be more and more sought for and appreciated.

ONE OF THE sADDEsT RESULTS.

On Of the saddest results of yester-
days fire was the destruction Of the H.
ternational Hotel. 1t was a three story
building furnished in splendid shape
throughout. With the single exception
Of its namesake in Virginia City, it was
the finest hotel in Nevada. 1t had been
completed and furnished late last Fall at
a cost of about S35, 600. The building
was deemed to be fre-proof, and per con-
sequence nothing was removed from it.
The whole was swallowed up in the seeth-
ing hell OF fame that swept down with
resistless fury from the south on toward
the northern extremity OF the town.
Mr.. and Mrs. D. H. Hall were the pro-
p%rietors. They are an aged couple who
have spent the best years Of their lives
in a%ccruing this property. They had in
volved themselves to erect this splendid
building and were in a fair way to work
off their indebtedness. The insurance
which they carried goes to their credit
ors. They are therefore left compare
lively penniless in their declining years.
The SENTINEL sincerely condoles with
them in their sad misfortune and hopes
that better luck and brighter skies may
be in reserve for them.

LET A PUBLIC MEETING BE
HELD.

A great many families were left home
less by the fire OF yesterday. No cases
of absolute want have thus far been re-
ported, yet there must be cases of desti-
tuition and suffering. The fire of a year
ago developed many such cases. That of
yesterday was still more destructive. 1t
is true that the weather is more favor
able than it was on the occasion of our
former calamity. But still there may be
those who are in sore distress. Let us
look them out and give them such assist
ance as they may need. To this end the
SENTINEL suggests a public meeting of
citizens at the Courthouse at 10 NJ. to-
day to organize a Relief Committee. Ii
no one needs help, SO much the better,
but it is clearly in the line Of duty to
take early steps to ascertain the real sit
uation Of those who have lost their all.
The old Relief Committee might be con-
tinued and authorized to 60 ahead in the
work Of relieving the wants Of such as
may need immediate aid. If we remem-
Der correctly there is still an unexpended
balance IN the hands Of the old commit
tee. This, at least, should be disbursed
among deserving cases..
Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1880-08-18
A GREAT CALAMITY.

Another great calamity has overtaken
cur town. Nearly one half OF the place
was yesterday destroyed by fire. 1t is 3
terrible blow, and the wound will be all
the more deeply felt because of the fact
that this is the second time within six
teen months that the same district has
been swept by the fiery element. The
people in that portion Of town were but
slowly recovering from their former mis-
fortunes. 1t will be difficult for many
of them to erect new buildings and re-
establish themselves in business. The
town has been extremely dull since the
great confagratioa Of April, 1879. The
situation in this regard must be i%ntensi-
fed by the terrible misfortune of yester-
day. The SENTINEL is satisfied that the
burnt district will be rebuilt, but the
process must in the very nature OF things
be slow. There is too much vitality in
this community to admit of permanent
scars. Our mines are known to be rich
and permanent. Great value attaches to
favorable business locations at all points
on Main street. Hence we conclude that
in due time town Will bear few evil
denees of the great calamity which yes
terday visited Us.
Ii is impossible at this writing to ag-
gregate the losses. In u local columns
will be found as nearly a complete list as
could be compiled in the confusion which
followed the fire. The trouble which be-
set the reporters was the difficulty expe-
rienced in finding parties known to be
among the sufferers. Considerable in
surance is noted, but in a great many in
stances these sums 20 to persons to whom
the parties losing property have been in
debted since the preceding fire. A
rough estimate OF the losses of yesterday
places them at about $50, 900, covered
by about $50, 900 insurance. We do
not claim that these figures are even ap-
proximately correct, as they amount to
nothing more than the merest guess
work.
The SENTINEL extends to the sufferers,
one and all, its sincerest sympathy,
Happily this journal, for the first time in
ten years when a calamity has visited
our town, escaped direct injury, though
both Of the proprietors sustained losses
in outside or individual property.

EXPLANATORY,

A number OF journalists and others
telegraphed the editor of the SENTINEL
yesterday for particulars of the fire. The
Office of the Western Union Telegraph
Company was burnt cut, and Mr.. Spin
ner, the operator, removed tothe railroad
depot, nearly a mile from town. We
made two trips TO the depot during the
afternoon and fulfilled all requests for
news as far as possible under the circum-
stances. Some requests had to be ig.
nored, owing to the press of private bus.
mess claiming the attention Of the wires.
We make this explanation in order that
correspondents who were not served may
know that the omission was not due to
willfnl neglect on our part.

THE LEADER.

The SENTINEL regrets the misfortune
which yesterday befell its evening con-
temporary, The ire originated in the
immediate vicinity Of the Leader office,
and soon the whole building was enyel-
oped in flames. The presses and best
part of the material were consumed.
Mr.. Hobart, the proprietor, is absent in
San Francisco. The attaches succeeded
IN saving only a few cases of type. The
SENTINEL establishment was placed at
their disposal, and in the course of the
afternoon they issued a Leader Extra,
The free use OF SENTINFL material has
also been rendered until Mr.. Hobart can
return and arrange to r~e-establish his
journal. In this manne the legal adver-
tisements of the Leader will not be al
lowed to lapse.

afternoon from San Francisco stated that
there was great excitement in that city
