PASN HER ALONG.
A Female "MajOr'' wilson on He
WAY West.

A Female sMsjOrs Wilson on Her
Way West.
A s'hotel beat" and general confidence
woman, who has made her presence disa-
greeably felt at several places along the
overland railroad, is said to be headed in
this direction. 1t is not out of order that
the public be notified of her coming. She
is said to be well educated, and having
the appearance Of a lady, but here the
similarity ceases. The writer of a warning
letter to the Ogden Pilot claims that he
knew the woman in Denver, Omaha and
other places, where she successfully worked
her racket" 1t is alleged that she makes
it a point or entering a city to put up at
the best hotel without money!; that in
the meantime she seeks the acquaintance
of men and women of affluence and inf1u-
ence, gaining their sympathy and conf
dence by having known some distinguished
relative of theirs either in this country or
in Europe. She pretends to open a school
to teach young ladies, and in the mean
time collects tuition fees in advance, when
something occurs which prevents the open
ing Of the school. She will go to the
Catholic clergy and state to them that she
was educated in their faith. Then she
calls on the Episcopal clergy and states
she was married in their church, etc.
When she arrives in Ogden she will be
recognized By the above expose, and if
any hotel-keeper or other persona who
read this item are afterwards victimized
by her they will neither deserve nor re.
ceive any sympathy from the general
nuhlio.

Our weather wisdom.

1t will be remembered that the SENTINEL
had this little weather prediction in type
at IL o'clock II. Wednesday night: "Every
star shone out brightly last night, but
the soft winds from the south made the
weather sharp believe that another storm
is brewing" Mother Shipton is thrown
into the shade. The weather struggled
against US. but it had to succumb. The
stars continued all night to shine with
unusual b%rilliancy. and when the moon
appeared she We'd with them in illuminat-
ing the heavens. Until I O'Clock yesterday
morning there was not q token Of moisture
anywhere but in the barometer and
the Joints of the rheumatic, A few
minutes later, however, the snow began to
fall, and by the time the readers Of the
SENTINEL. got to breakfast at a thrifty and
comfortable hour the ground was covered
with the "beautiful" three inches deep. The
barometer fell lower yesterday than it has
fallen at any time within the past year.
Capt. Tully, the veteran Of the Paul Pry,
says before the present storm is over there
will be two feet of snow on the ground.
We have tried our hand once, now let's
see what kind Of a weather prophet the
CAPTAIN is,

An Interesting Shipment.

consignment Of young carp was shipped
from Washington Tuesday for the Pacific
Coast. This consignment is intended to
supply those States which are somewhat
inaccessible. They will be distributed
throughout Texas. New Mexico, Arizona,
California, Nevada, Washington, Oregon,
Idaho and Wyoming. The consignment
goes a large part of the way over the Penn
sylvania Railroad, which has provided a
special car for the purpose, fitted up for
carrying young fish of all kinds. 1t is
provided with refrigerating apparatus OF
the most approved construction. The
greatest part Of the weight is placed in the
bottom OF the car SO as to avoid top heavi-
meas. Five messengers accompany the
shipment, as the journey is very fatiguing,
and it is necessary that two be on hand
night and day to watch the fish. The
present shipment is somewhat of an exper-
iment, as there are certain new features IN
this car that have not been tried. II these
fish get through in safety, German carp
will be c~olonized in every State and Terri
tory OF the Union. The most favorable
reports are received from every direction
of the growth of these fish.

s.DEPRECIATION.',

Something Further About the
Bended Claims of Wren and
Foley.
The SENTINEL is charged by the Leader
with speaking ''depreciatingly" OF the
Mazep, Desperandum and Magnet claims,
bonded to Messrs. Wren and Foley by the
Hartnett brothers and Alex. Fraser. The
charge is true, if the following language
used by us with regard to these claims
may be so construed: "The claims pur-
chased by Messrs. Wren and Foley have
the reputation in this district of being
excellent prospects, and they would doubt
less pay handsomely if developed. We
hope to see work begun on them soon,
because we believe they will prove to be
paying properties" Our purpose in
speaking of the bonding of these claims as
we did in yesterdays paper was solely to
correct an evident Misrepresentation, the
publication of which uncontradicted would
tend to depreciate the value OF the Eu-
reka Tunnel property; WHILE on
the other hand, M good could
result to the buyers or sellers Of
the Mazep, Magnet and D%esperandum by
an incorrect statement, the facts to con-
trovert which would necessarily be estab-
lished before further steps are taken to
complete the conditions Of the bond. We
are totally at q loss to see how our giving
facts, which must become patent to all in
terested as soon as the proposed survey
of the properties in question is made, can
have any effect to the disadvantage OF the
owners Of the bonded claims. We have
the word Of General Conner that our state
ment, made with the utmost caution, is 10
precise accord with the facts as developed
by Mr.. Reads survey. We say this much
to vindicate ourselves, If vindicatlon be
necessary, for the publication of facts as a
matter of news-which cannot, and was
not denied, to place anybody at a disad-
vantage. The SENTINEL has always stood
by the camp and has never showed any
disposition to ''speak depreciatingly" of
a%nybody's interest; nor will its course in
the future vary from what it has been in
the past.
General Conner wishes us to say that
Mr.. Fraser did not apply to him or the
Eureka Tunnel Company for admission to
the property, but that Mr.. Fraser asked
this permission OF the attorneys of the
company, Messrs. Baker & Wines, during
his absence from town. These attorneys
had not the authority to grant this per-
mission, which can be granted only by the
General, who is President of the company
and Superintendent of the mine. He says
that if Mr.. Fraser had applied to him for
admission into the mine his request would
have been complied with. The Leaders
statement of yesterday is very different
from that which it made on the preceding
day. Yesterday it says:
1--WE learn, through the description of
the workings of the Eureka Tunnel, that
they are in so feet Of these claims"
The day before the Leader said:
s'We learn that it is the impression of
Foley and Wren that the Eureka
Tunnel Company is across the line and
working upon these claims"
Now, if the amended statement of the
Leader is correct, why the furore mani
tested for a survey?

An Episode sIeighriding.

A young gentleman took his girl out

Willie was driving with one hand and 1t
might have looked dangerous to an out
slider, but not that the horses would run
away; if there was any danger 1t was that
they would lose the way.

A Presumption Dsoision.

A decision has recently been rendered
by Secretary Teller which. II enforced. will
interfere considerably with the methods
which have been adopted by pre-emptors
of government land in the Far West. The
Secretary holds that actual residence and
improvement ia demanded by the law, and
that a continuous compliance with its pro-
visions is essential before a patent can
issue. Small improvements and interrupt
ed residence, even though the pre-emptor
intends in good faith to settle upon the
land, do not meet the requirements OF the
statutes.
