The Court House on Runners =

The Court House on Runners -
Never before was Rockville known to pre-
sent such lively scene as it did on Monday
afternoon last In u sleighing carnival. The
entire town, male and female, was out masked,
joined by many persons from the country.
After parading the streets of this town the
party moved TO Gaithersburg in large num-
Der ofsleighs on return visit and took with
it a representative Court House, which the
prominent citizens Of the latter town claim
properly belongs there ON the ground Of
central location. The procession moved
throughout the town and returned home
much pleased. The representative Court
House was frame covered with cotton and
bore the names of all those who have any
official connection with it, The masks
worn were risible and created much fun
and comment. Senator Bruce and wife,
mulattoes, were represented by jet black
faces and decorated in comical style, with
the school board, the town officials, and the
the remainder were masked in a-go-as-you-
please style.

A PARTING WORD TO WINTER.

Cold weather, go! O frigid dallier, go!
Too long Gouve fingered hereabout-
Too long, alas! too long; you're dreadful slow!
Come, vamose! clear! get out!
Too long you've nipped our ears and aching
hands,
Too long you've pierced lis through and
through,
Too long you've held us in your icy bands
Oh, leave us quickly, do!
Too long we've watched the mercury in the glass,
Too long we've lied about the thing;
Much have we all to answer for, alas!
Come, go! twill soon be spring!
Do 20! The ice man has his harvest made,
The coal men sure have made enough:
With colds and rheumatic you've thousands
Stayed,
We've had quite FFquantum suff.'
Go now; there is time, I'm certain, quite,
When you will be much welcomer:
Come when the days are hot, when shelters bite
Yes, come next summer.

WOOD RIVER.
A Letter from Uncle Jimmy Hayes
to Colonel Perry.

A Letter from Uncle Jimmy Hayes
to Colonel Perry.
Colonel John Van Buren, Perry yester-
day received q letter from Uncle Jimmy
Hayes. formerly Of this place, and who is
we'll and favorably known to most Of our
people. The letter bears date, Bellevue,
Oct. az, and speaks rather discouragingly
OF the outlook Of the Wood River region.
We are permitted to make q few extracts Of
local interest. Uncle Jimmy says the
weather il fine, but there is nothing doing
In Bellevue section. The Sawtooth Range
is believed to be the best part of the
Wood River country. On the Sawtooth
they have free milling ore and good deal
OF 1t. But that part of the district is ex-
tremely rough in the Winter. The snow
Is four feet on the Divide already, though
teams are still ~wallowing through to the
upper camps. 1t requires two Summers
to get the machinery in for one 20-stamp
mill.
Pete Anderson Is at Little Wood River,
So miles from Bellevue, on the Kelton
road. Jim Kellogg is with him. They
have q toll bridge, saloon and eating house.
John Murphy is still in Bellevue in a tent,
but 10 not getting rich. Frank Cleveland
has q Winters job as barkeeper. Charlie
Pryor Is in Butte and likes the place.
George Almond ia in Bellevue, but will go
up to Sawtooth to Winter.
Uncle Jimmy says he has fitted up q
comfortable log cabin. and will burrow In
it until about the middle Of next May, at
which time he thinks Of going to Sawtooth
to start a blacksmith shop. After inquir-
ing about various matters and things in
Eureka, Uncle Jimmy concludes his letter
by sending his regards to Bob Reed and
other old friends.
The SENTINEL concludes that most Of the
Eureka boys who went to Wood River with
the rush, would be glad to be back once
more ON the Base Range. 1t is pretty hard

MURDERED IN ARIZONA.
The Sad Fate of an Old Resident Oi
Eastern Nevada.

The Sad Fate of an Old Resident Of
Eastern Nevada.
Tue following, from the St. John (Ari-
zona) Democrat, gives the details Of the
murder Of a former we'll known resident
OF White Pine County. David Blanchard
was a pioneer Of White Pine, and at differ
emit times within the past eight years was
engaged in business at Duck Greek, Ward
and Hunter. A great many of his old
friends in this section will regret to hear
Of his sad fate :.
On the 10Th day Of August Joseph Wal
tiers and VIM. Campbell murdered David
blanchard, a merchant at Washington
Station, in this county, and Jay Barrett, a
young man in the employ Of Mr.. Blanch-
ard. James d. Hauck, also doing business
on the road about four miles above, started
after the murderers accompanied by five
Navajo Indians. Mr.. Hauck and party
trailed the fugitives nearly to the Zuni Pu-
eblo, and a heavy rainstorm coming on
they lost the trail. As soon "a the new
reached st. Johns (being four days after
the murder was committed) u Sheriff,
e. 3. Slower, at once made preparations TO
effect the capture of the criminals; he sent
out parties in various directions, and on his
W responsibility offered a reward OF $500
for the arrest and delivery to him at st.
John Of the two criminals, or $3.50 for
either one of them. 1t must be borne in
mind that the murders were committed 100
miles from this place, and the murderers
had a very large scope of uninhabited coun-
try through which to travel in their attempt
to elude justice. But through the efforts
Of Col. Slower, our Sheriff, the two muir
derers were captured and lodged in Jail
on the first Of this month. The little party
that captured the wv murderers were
Jose Navarres, Nerefor Frijillo and Fred
erico Jean, who followed them through
the mountains, and overhauled
them near Socorro, New Mexico, and
knowing about red tape requisition bust
ness, they arrested the two men and
brought them back to this Territory. If
this numbering and stealing continues
much longer Judge Lynch will be brought
into requisition, and murderers and horse
thieves will then understand that Apache
County is no pleasant place to ply their
unlawful practices.
David Blanchard, Esq, one Of the MUIR
dered men, was al old gray-headed man
and Justice Of the peace Of the precinct in
which he resided, and one OF the best men
in the county. He was kind-hearted, hos
pitable, and always ready and willing to
assist the deserving destitute.
