The Ogden Pilot says that the terrible
storms in the East have doubtless helped
to delay the prompt transmission OF news
during several weeks past; but, as will be
seen from a Washington dispatch to the
Iater-Ocean, dated Oct. 4, another good
reason for the delay Of their dispatches is
given, as follows: "The small salaried
telegraph operators employed by the West
ern Union Telegraph Company, in this and
other cities, have petitioned for an increase
Of salary, claiming that first-class operators
should receive 500 per month. This
movement is. general all over the country,
and as first class. men are difficult to OBJ
tain, it is likely the operators will win.
This is the second time the Washington
operators have sent out q petition. OF this
kind. In the meantime, while the west
ern Union men are '%whooping it up for an
increase Of salary, the Mutual Union Com
pany is taking a wise advantage, n Is
securing the best operators in advance OF
the opening of that line. They have
already secured q number Of operators in
this city, in Baltimore and Philadelphia,
and are paying them salaries right along
in order to retain them. Telegraph oper-
ators say that the scale of salaries offered
by the Mutual Union is very satisfactory

SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 12.-The contest
made by the Eastern shareholders Of the
Eureka Con. to change the management
seems likely to terminate in favor Of the
present directory. It is now definitely
known. that the old board controls about
40, 900 out of the $4,000 shares of stock.
The annual election of the company takes
place on Monday, the 18th inst. ALI the
old officers will be reelected.
Arrangements have been made to list
the stock Of the Eureka Tunnel Company
on the San Francisco Stock Exchange.
Goodshaw has levied an assessment Of
Is cents.
As the steamers Bay City and New York
were passing each other on the bay this
afternoon, q skiff containing two men,
which was between the two vessels, was
upset and one OF the men drowned, the
other being picked up.
A meeting and election Of the Nevada
Bank was called for to-day, but no quo
rum being present the meeting adjourned
until tomorrow.
To-day there is o small run on the Ger
man Savings Bank, owing to the statement
made by William Hollis, President Of q
real estate association, and an insolvent,
to the effect that he was indebted to the
bank in a considerable amount, which was
Unsecured. The Cashier says that the rpr
has been confined to small depositors Of
the more ignorant and easily excited class
that the bank is paying all demands in full
and is in q thoroughly satisfactory condi
ton, and that no n OF any consequence
ia apprehended. The bank was examined
by the Commissioners q few weeks age
and pronounced solvent.

A HIGH.TONED WEDDING.
Two Minors Gland estfnely Married
Among the Clouds.

Among ID Clouds.
Society circles at Annapolis, Maryland.
are all agog over the recently discovered
marriage Of Miss CLARA Hamilton. aged II,
daughter Of Gov. VIM. T. Hamilton, to
John Stanhope, aged 20. which was SOL
emnized In August last. The Stanhopes
and the Hamiltons live near each other In
Hagerstown. and II was known that young
Mr.. Stanhope had been paying attentions
to Miss Hamilton. The Governor objected
some months ago to the young mans at
tentions and intercourse between the young
couple was apparently broken off. About
the middle OF August, however, the lovers
planned an elopement. Young Stanhope
went to Westminster, Carroll County, and
obtained . marriage license and the SER
vices Of q Methodist clergyman, the Rev.
DR.. Murray, who agreed to marry them.
II was arranged that the should
be performed at Penmar, Q summer resort
on the summit Of the Blue Ridge Noun
tains. . few miles from Hagerstown. One
day Q pleasure party went to Penmar, Miss
Hamilton being Of the number, and on her
arrival she was met by Etanhope and the
clergyman. They went up the south
aide OF the mountain to High Rock, said
TO be the most elevated point in the State,
being more than 1900 feet above the level
Of the sea. Here among the clouds the
marriage was solemnized, and the young
couple returned to their companions as
though nothing ofimportance had occurred.
Since that time they have lived ct their re.
spective homes. 1t is said that the fact OF
the marriage was discovered by q friend Of
Gov. Hamilton's. who happened to look
over the records at the Courthouse. Mrs.
Stanhope has been kept closely secluded
at her fathers country house since the dis
will have to rslent. The groom Ia . son OF

A singular Robbery.
WHEELING Nv. Va.), Oct. IA very
singular and daring robbery occurred
here yesterday. Mrs. Alex. Otterson was
awakened about S O'Clock by a noise in her
bedroom. and discovered q masked man
in the act of going through her bureau
drawers. In moving in the bed Mrs. OF
terson attracted the attention OF the rob-
Der, who compelled her at the muzzle OF q
pistol to rise, and seating her in a chair
he cut off her hair, which was of an ex-
ceedingly luxuriant growth. He molested
her no further and made his escape.

PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE.

PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE.
The Philadelphia Inquirer Republican,
printed the following previous to Bay.
ards election: at has been given out
that if the Democrats organize the Sen.
ate they will do 90 by electing SEN
ator Bayard President Should they do
SO wise a thing as that it is doubtful il
the country would greatly regret the po-
liticsl change. for Senator Bayard is a
statesman who does not abuse that
name, and who is so wise, honest and pa.
triotic as to command the universal re.
spect and confidence. OF all those in
the Senate, Of either side. he is the least
q partisan, and can most be relied upon
not to serve his party at the cost Of his
country. If the Republicans are, un.
fortunately, to lose the control of the
Senate, and that seems most probable,
they will least feel their loss with so
moderate a Democrat as Senator Bayard
in the chair. The country would prefer
3 fit Republican there, but, lacking such
a Republican, it would regard with salts
faction the election of a fit Democrat"

DANA ON GUrrEAU.

The New York Sun says: at seems
to us that Guiteau's narrative disposes of
the theory which holds the so-called
spoils system responsible for the crime.
which has been a source of consolation
to many whose grief would otherwise
have been unsupportable. He was an
~impecunious fool, or in Scripture phrase.
possessed Of a devil, bursting with the
vanity of the weakest and most revolt
ing sort, and ready to do anything that
would bring him notoriety, he was never
theless a moral monstrosity. Though
Guiteau is a very fend, in nothing that
he has ever said. written or done is there
evidence that he is not mentally and
legally responsible"

General Crook WAITED.

The Apache war in Arizona appears to
be carried on somewhat unfortunately.
A Tucson dispatch says that the net results
so far are two dead Indians, who were
shot by a civilian, and the capture Of a
little girl. There is no doubt but that
men and officers are full of fight, ready
and willing to endure hardships aud en-
counter danger in the pursuit Of their
treacherous foes, but somehow their efforts
do not appear to be well directed. In this
condition of affairs, ones thoughts natu-
rally revert to General Crook, who, with
far less advantages than at present enjoyed
by the troops, forced the murderous saw
ages TO an unconditional surrender. If
the War Department wished to put the
right man in the right place, Gen. Crook
would forthwith be assigned to the COM
mand Of the campaign in Arizona and
New Mexico.

There are few instances of devotion
that prove the existence OF love in q
higher degree than that given by Kit
Carson's Indian wife to her brave and
manly lover. While minirg In the
West he married an Indian girl, with
whom he lived very happily. When
no was taken i'll, long way from
home, word was sent to bis wife, who,
mounted a feet mustang pony and
travelled hundreds OF miles to reach
him. Night and day she continued
her journey, resting only for q few
hours on the open prairie, flying on
her wonderful little steed as soon as
she could gather up her forces anew.
She forded rivers, she scaled rocky
passes, she waded through rnotaases.
and finally arrived, just alive, to End
her husband better. But the expos
ure and exertions killed her !; she was
seized with pneumouia, and died
within d briet space in her husbands
arms. The shock killed Kis Carson,

vessel. and both are buried in one

wise ruler decided to treat all the
artiaans employed on his famous edi-
fec TO a banquet. While the men
were enjoying tho good things his
bounty had provided, King Solomon
moved about from table TO table, en-
deavoring TO become better acquaint'
Cd with his workman. To one OF
them he said;
"My trend what is your ,rads ?

King Solomon addressed was the
blacksmith himself. He was a pow

the muscles stood out ia bold relief,
and seemingly, almost as hard as the
metal he worked.

"Make EN- myself" said the black
smith. .
