The English sparrows have increased to
such an extent and are behaving like so
many little demons there is great anxiety
manifested to rid the country Of them, but
nobody has been ingenious enough to pro-
pose a plan that will accomplish the de-
sired end. The New York Mail gravely
discusses the situation thus: "The pest
will never be removed until q systematic
plan is adopted for the destruction Of the
birds wherever they exist. Experiments
have shown that they can be easily shared,
and that mode of capturing them is most
practicable. But unless some motive not
now in operation is provided to secure
their destruction they are likely to be a
curse to the country indefinitely. In order
to make the crusade against them short,
sharp and decisive, ii will be necessary to
offer q reward Of 10 to rs cents a hundred
for sparrow heads, and with that induce
ment to quicken them, the boys of the
country might become most ardent trap
pers. 1t will be economy for the Stateeto
offer a small reward for every hundred
sparrows removed"

An Explanation.

Commissioner Arlington stated yester.
day to a SENTINEL reporter that by his
suggestion in the meeting Of the Board
Monday, he did not mean that any Of the
duties of the Board should be transferred
to private citizens. Hes said his suggestion
was meant to cover a case in which certain
purchases had been made and the bills for
which 1t could be seen were regarded favor
ably by two OF the Commissioners, while
the other member was opposed to them,
and looked upon them "a illegal or unjust.
His idea was, in such q case, that il the
minority could get the matter turned over
to a committee OF taxpayers to be invests
gated by them they might report against
the proposed action Of the majority, and
by standing in with the one member de-
feat the allowance Of improper claims. He
says he agrees with Taxpayer" generally,
that it is the province of the Board to at
tend to county business themselves, and
that they should not seek the aid Of out
siders or allow them to interfere improp-
erly In the Boards proceedings"

A Bis Coal discovery.

Speaking Of the Bull Mountain coal
Aeld, the Helena lMontana) Herald says
All OF the reports that come to US from
the new coal field speak encouragingly,
the latest examination reporting q vein OF
II feet in thickness and OF good quality.
The fact that this discovery has been made
on railroad lands will increase the proba-
bility of constructing q branch at once, a.
has been several times announced. The To-
cality called Bull Mountain is only q line
of bare, and not very rich hills, about
so miles northwest from Billings, on the
line of the railroad survey from Billings
to Benton. The range Of low hills is the
divide between the waters Of the Yellow
stone and Musselshell. 1t is the heart OF q
section that stands much in need OF a
supply of fuel before it can be generally
settled.

Tho Cannon nall MIL.

Cannon Ball mill. says the Placerville
Democrat, has been tested at Grizzly, and
after a run OF six weeks has been pro-
nounced a perfect success. With from
two TO three horsepower II will reduce
from six to eight tons Of ore q day. Only
one man Is required to operate it. The
cost OF one OF these mills of the largest
size is less than $500. The owners offer
very liberal terms to any poor miner who
has got a ledge. They offer to put up a
mill for any one who will get out so tons
OF $40 ore. They will reduce the ore and
take their pay from the proceeds.

A sineuIar spectacle.

Yesterday afternoon q violent hailatorm
took place and the rafting Of hsilstones
raised such q racket o. ia seldom heard In
these parts. A gentleman who was at the
Eureka Con. new shaft when the storm
began says that II hailed there for a min
ute or two, when the shower began to re.
treat before a stiff breeze. He watched
the falling hailstones further and further
away with the naked eye for q while and
then went for his opera glass, through
which the receding hail shower assumed
the appearance Of a snowbank drifting In
the air.

EurekEs Con. Water.

The water in the Eureka Con. new
shaft stands at a hight Of 60 feet from the
bottom. The machinery keeps it at this
point without strain or difficulty. Supt.
Read is convinced that the food comes
from a reservoir which is being gradu-
ally emptied. The reservoir theory, he
feels satisfied, is the true one, for If the
water came in by a current it would
have been pumped out before this time;
but to keep it down, if this were the
case, would require continuous pumping
at the present rate. According to his
idea, however, that the flood IL from
an accumulation Of water in some i'm
mense chamber or reservoir, when this
ia once drained there will be no further
trouble. He says he has not the least
doubt but the water will all be removed
in time, but how long the pumps Will
have to be kept going he can tell no
better than anybody else.
