A krfef Biographical sketch of Our
a TOwnsman, VIM. III. Clark.

At 2 O'Clock yesterday afternoon, in the
prime Of life and the full career OF useful
ness, that good citizen, honorable gentle
man, and loving husband, William H.
Clark, was suddenly stricken down with
pneumonia, and after a few days Of pain
full illness breathed his last. When the
news Of his demise spread it could hardly
be credited, and for a time friends were
dazed with the announcement.
Mr.. Clark was not a powerful man, phys
ically, and still there was hardly a man in
the community whose appearance gave
token Of a longer life. Abstemious in his
habits, and domestic in his tastes, he
seemed to have before him a long future Of
usefulness and prosperity. As a member
Of Eureka society he had won the good
opinion Of every one with whom he had
been thrown in contact, and he leaves be-
hind him as q legacy to his sorrowing wife
a name pure and untarnished. Prompt to
the call of charity, generous to the frail-
ties OF his fellow men, and honorable in
every transaction of life.
Billy Clark was an exemplary citizen.
Noble, chivalric and gentle; the influence
Of his character will long remain as a slim
illus to those who remain behind. Pow
erty never knocked at his door without a
welcome, his liberality to every public in
stitution was marked, and none know it
better than the fire boys; the State or town
wherein he has lived since Nevada was a
State, has never called upon him without
his prompt response, and never in his
presence was q man maligned that in his
generosity be did not speak a kindly
word for whoever it might be that
was abused. Mr.. Clark was taken
down with a cold last Sunday and,
was anticipated from the symptoms
evinced. Before the SENTINEL went to
press on Friday morning, however, word
was sent to this Office direct from Mr..
Clark's attending physicians, Messrs.
Bishop and Owens, to the effect that their
patient was sinking, and mention was made
of the fact, but none anticipated the result.
VIM. H.. Clark was a native of New York
State, and died aged very nearly 46 years;
came to Nevada in 1861, and has, up to a
few months ago, been actively engaged in
mercantile pursuits-first in Silver City
and Dayton, and later at Hamilton and
Eureka. With Billy Seaton he opened the
leading grocery store Of Eastern Nevada in
1869, in a canvas store, upon the site Of
the magnificent stone building now known
as Clark's block, in honor of the deceased.
Clark street was also so designated to per-
petuate the name of one who had dom SO
much for that thoroughfare in our town.
The miners, the builders and the people
Of Eureka, have lost in the death Of VIM.
H.. Clark one Of the brightest lights lin a
business view and socially that ever shone
throughout this part Of the State. While
he leaves a devoted wife and friends by the
hundred to mourn his loss, and although
in his family's deep bereavement, it were
idle TO offer words of coincidence, we ten
der our sincerest sympathies.

CHERRY CREEK ITEMS.
white Pine News. Noyember 11th,

white Pine News, November 11th.l
A gentleman just in from Cherry Creek
informs us that the Star Company are ship
ping about $50, 900 per month. The mine
is looking well and the present output is
likely to be increased rather than dimin-
ished.
The Company that recently purchased
the Genoa and Teacup have secured i'm
portant water rights, and will erect a
twenty-stamp mill during the coming
winter.
The San Jose Company at Egan Canyon,
have put a force Of men to work at their
mines, and we hope before long TO learn
something OF interest from that camp.
The Exchange mine is running a fiye-
stamp mill and turning out some good bull
lion.
Taken altogether the outlook Of Cherry
Creek is bright for the future.

So BUCK
His ~COurtship and Marriage of Miss
Chaffee.

ChaYee.
"Gath" telegraphs concerning the mar
riage Of Buck" Grant: The latter is 2S
years old, and Miss Fannie J. Chaffee, the
bride, about 23. Buck was his fathers
Secretary in the White House during the
closing part Of his administration. He
studied law in New York, was admitted to
the bar, and when his father went to Eu-
rope was left in charge Of q number Of his
interests and speculations. He has some
business dash. but is too con1ding, like
his father, and, being tempted into sundry
speculations, was on the point Of being
ruined q year or two ago, but some strong
men, thinking well Of him, stepped to his
rescue. He was in a pool which was hold
ing a lot of stocks for q rise, and he held
on and would nave been left with the
stocks dead on his hands if men of more
auspicious caliber had not given the cue
from the outside. He was not engaged to
Miss Flood, Of California, but they had
been a good deal together and made an
effort to fall in love, but without much sue
cess. Miss Chaffee had been educated in
Europe, and is an only daughter. Her
father is the owner and she the mistress OF
a beautiful home here, in q fashionable part
of New York, which, with its elaborate
decoration and furnishing, cost little less
than 500, 600. Senator Chaffee has been
very i'll for several years past, and his
daughter has given him careful attention
and home comforts. He is rapidly becom-
ing a we'll man again. Miss Chaffee was
courted by Dan Richmond, of New York,
and by a bright and educated young ply
stefan from Louisiana, whose address was
winning, but her father was a severe Rad
ical and incorrigibie about a Southern
marriage. "Buck" Grant became attached
to Miss Chaffee, but made but very little
progress in his suit. In short. he was
turned off but last summer. At Saratoga
they were thrown together again, and he
was finally accepted. 1t is said here that
| he is without enemies, amiable and stall
wart. He was worth, in his W right,
when married. from $1,000 0 to $3.50, 900,
The young couple received from Senator
Chaffee S400, 600 in Government bonds.

PALACE
The Finest nbIishnient of the
Kind fn Eastern Nevada.


One thing and another have combined ia
keep Luther Clark and Chris Malatests
back from the completion and occupation
of their new and elegant saloon on Main
street, upon the former site Of the old
Empire" But they are now ready for a
good opening, and tonight they will throw
wide to the Eureka public an elegant sa-
loon, complete in all its trappings, rich in
all arrangement, and first-class in every
particular.
The saloon proper is plain, but rich in
it's furnishings; the bar is especially SO,
and the French plate mirror, five feet by
eight in size, is the admiration Of all be-
holders. Gilt mouldings, magnificent chan
deliers, and beautiful paintings Of hunting
scenes, etc., go to make up the furnishings
in excellent harmony and taste. Clark 4
Malatesta have sold liquors too long to ad-
NIT OF question as to the quality they dis
pense, and when Alec Celia is behind
the bar no man ever dreamed Of
"pizen." The best and most varied
qualities are stored right under the saloon,
in the best cellar in Eureka, and all are
shipped direct from old established whole
sale houses in San Francisco.
Oscar Lewis has the cigar privilege of
the house, and will only offer the best OF
goods in his line.
Charley Greek has the sole right to the
faro ROOM, which opens out upon a Buell.
street plank-walk and also from the Main
saloon by an easy stairway.
But the club-room is 'the chief" 1t is
grand in its new furniture; the card-tables
are of the latest patterns, the chairs are
suggestive Of luxury, and the carpets are
as soft as velvet.
A spledid lunch will be served this even
ing to the patrons of the house, and we
predict that coin will flow into the Golfers
of Messrs. Clark & Malatesta from this day
on

The Idaho Mine.

Mr.. Thomas, the contractor in the Idaho
mine, has nearly finished the 50-foot
winze, but from Mr.. A. W. Atchison we
learn that work will be continued. They
already have a 15-foot vein Of low-grade
ore in sight, and with such prospects the
San Francisco Company are not the men
to let go. Mr.. Atchison is busy putting
the buildings Of the company in repair for
winter work, and when the whim-house is
enclosed there will be no weather which
can effect a stoppage of active operations.
The shaft is now 235 feet deep. and five
men are driving ahead as rapidly as posi-
BILE. They have a small quantity OF very
good ore on the dump at present, and the
management feel greatly encouraged with
their prospect.

Our Cities.

The census is of course far from complete,
but it already gives some very interesting
figures in respect to the population Of the
larger cities. New York, of course, main
tains her position as the metropolis with a
population of nearly million and quar-
ter-a gain in ten years of quarter of a
million, and during the half century of over
million. Philadelphia and Brooklyn are
still second and third, the former with S42,.
600, and the latter with 560,O0O-an increase
for each of about 100000. Chicago has
passed its old time rival and now stands
fourth on the list with 474,000, while St.
Louis is 100000 behind. In the similar
contest between Boston and Baltimore, the
competitors also change positions-the for
mer taking the sixth rank with 900 in
habitants, and Baltimore having about $780,.
900. Cincinnati probably retains the eighth
place, although New Orleans and San Fran.
cisco, her nearest rivals in 1870, have not
been heard from. Some of the western cit
les have grown prodigiously. Thus, Cleve.
land, with only 92,S29 in 1870, has jumped
to $4,000, an increase of seventy per cent,
and Milwaukee exhibits the astonishing ad-
vance from II ,440 to 100000, an increase of
eighty per cent The number of the cities
having over 100000 inhabitants has in.
creased from fourteen in 1870, TO eighteen,
and probably the complete statistics will
add one or two more TO the list.

OUR CANDIDATE.-General Garfield as
chief of staff to General Rosecrans is thus
described by Edmund Kirke. in his war
book, Z" Down in Tennessee" written in 1868;
In corner by the window, seated at small
pine desk-a sort Of packing box, perched
on long-legged stool, and divided into pig
con holes, with a rundown lid-was tall,
deep chested snewy built man, with regu-
lar, massive features, full, clear blue eye,
slightly dashed with gray, and high, broad
forehead, rising into ridge over the eyes
as II it had been thrown up by plow.
There was something singularly engaging
in his open, expressive face, and his whole
appearance indicated, as the phrase goes,
great reserved power" His Uniform, though
clearly brushed, aud sitting easily upon
him, had sort Of democratic air, and
everything about him seemed to denote that
he was +" a man of the people," A rusty,
slouched hat, large enough to have fitted
Daniel Webster, lay on the desk before him,
but glance at that was not needed to con.
vince me that his head held more than the
common share Of brains. Though he is
yet young-not thirty-three-th reader has
heard Of him, and il he lives he will make
his name long remembered in our history.
