MPORTAN

To the People of Eureka and Vicinity;
We wish to state a few facts which we
hope will place us in q true business
light and on a sound commercial standing
in this community.
First-We say it without fear of success
full contradiction, that we are selling (and
propose to continue to do SOY frst-class
dry goods, carpets and gents furnishing
goods as cheap as they are being sold to-
day in San Francisco or any place on this
coast.
Second We have no old and shelf-worn
goods which we offer, but all CLEAN,
NEW, STYLISH materials, selected with
great care from the finest and largest
stocks Of goods just opened from the East
by direct importers. We have completed
our arrangements with one of the largest
wholesale houses in the world, to con-
stantly secure for US the best of bargains
and the first selection OF new goods in
every instance.
Third-Ws propose adding a small hv-
ing profit to every article we sell. WE
OFFER NO BATS. OR QUOTE FIG
TICIOUS PRICES in order to in
luce people to buy, but place our
goods side by side with any and all
competitors. knowing that upon examina-
ton we will come out ahead. We
have one price, and mark every ar
ticle in plain figures, so that every
man, woman or child can see for
themselves just what every article sells
for. Since opening, u store has been
crowded constantly, and each buyer has
left with the verdict that they had been
sauarely treated, and served good goods at
low prices. By SPECIAL FAVOR we
have been given inducements by O'Connor.
Moffatt Il Co., of San Francisco, in the way
of obtaining goods from their house.
Should any of the ladies in the community
wish to send away, we keep on hand a
full stock OF their samples from every de-
partment to select from, which can be
seen at any time in our store.
Remember, one price to all, square deal
ing, no bats offered, goods obtained
strictly from first hands, entire satisfac-
ton given or money refunded, and an
earnest desire to please all and obtain a
reasonable share OF your patronage. We
remain respectfully yours,
\ HARRIS & MATHEWS.

The deadlock in the California Legisla-
ture still continues.
Between 500, 900 aud $500, 900 per
month are paid in wages at the smelters
in Butte, Montana.
The first piano in the Ceur d'Alene
country reached there q few days ago. 1t

Three Of the Quijotos mines have been
listed az the stock board-the Croker,

600 shares.
A Scotch colony, consisting OF about
1000 persons, is now being organized in

R. Fredericks, Assessor.
There ia much complaint in Alaska
about the new officials, and a petition is
being circulated for the removal of the
District Judge. Two Of the appointees of
last September have not yet showed up. 1t
is reasonable TO suppose that they have
not failed to draw their salaries.
The fire at South Wellington Colliery,
Victoria, has thrown many miners out of

be decreasing, it will be a long time before

and it may yet be necessary to flood the

a.. Eurekau Has struck - scheme
whereby He Expects TO Make .
Fortune without Much Capifai
or Labor.
There is a genius in Eureka who claims
he has q scheme whereby he will be able
10 make an independent. fortune within q
few years, and which will require but com
paratiyely little labor and capital. He has
spoken OF the matter In a quiet and rather
mysterious way, and those who got an ink
ling Of his ideas thought that he was, to
10 an extent, demented. Yesterday q re-
porter OF the SENTINEL sought him out,
and it was after quite a while that he was
able TO gain from him the information
contained in tho following interviews:

A Clock in n BustIe.

An amusing story reaches US from Paris,
says the Pail Mall Gazette. On Friday
last a lady, having paid her hotel bill. sent
away her boxes on a cab and sailed forth
on foot. No sooner had she departed than
the landlord discovered that the clock had
disappeared from the mantel-piece of the
room which the late ledger had been occu-
plying, though he remembered to have
seen it there subsequent to her trunks
being dispatched. Convinced that she
must be the thief, he rushed in hot
pursuit, and, o~vertaking her, he charged
her with the robbery and gave her into
custody, the lady meanwhile protesting
loudly against the ~indignity offered her,
and vowing vengeance against the ira
Queer. She was, however, taken before
the JUICE d'instruction, to whom she re-
sumed her torrent Of indignant denial
with the extraordinary volubility peculiar
to the daughters of Gaul. Her indigna-
ton was at its hight when 10 IL O'Clock
rang forth in clear tones from the region
Of madam's dress improver. The express
sion Of CONSERVATION depicted upon the
fair pilferer's countensnce, together with
the appositeness of the quaint phenome-
non, were too much for the gravity OF the
officials, who burst into a fit of uncon-
trollable laughter. Five minutes later a
female warden returned the t~ell-tale time
piece to it's owner. Will Oscar Wilde still
insist upon " the utter uselessness Of that
hideous monstrosity-the hustle 7"

The Prescott, Arizona, Miner says:
Gov. Tritle is preparing an elaborate and

erence to a photographic survey to be
made by the General Government OF the

fall Of the Territory, the volume OF water
in different streams and the sources OF
OF sapply, and the feasibility of erecting
reservoirs to retain the surplus OF Winter
for use during the dry season. The Gov
ernor expresses himself as confident that
Congress can be induced to make the
necessary appropriation, If it can be made
TO realize the importance of the work, and
that millions Of now unproductive acres
can be reclaimed through the agency OF
the valuable and definite data which such
a suryey would obtain. So far Arizona mas

regret that the last act of the administration
should have been performed at the dlctation
and in the interest of corporate wealth.
Take sample Of this Republicans denunci-
alton Of the latest swindle of his party rep
ressntstiYes:
What right had the President and Cabinet to
waive broken cOnditiOns2 That power was vested
in Congress alone. But why this haste? Why
should the CLERKS work nights and insult the re-
HgiOus element OF the Nation by working on sun
day What is the necessity. public or otherwise?
This Republic was lot TO perish on the 4th OF
March. It's con- inuitY was not TO be disturbed
by changing the executive. There was to be no
suspe nsiOn Of powers and duties All other bust
ness IN the Interior Department was concluded
Dy March 4. DIG other executive departments
work their forces nights and Sunday so that the
new administration might start with only new
business? The people should ask why this haste?
Was IL dangerous 10 trust the representatives Of
the people IN the next Congress? Was il danger
Gus TO trust the incoming administration to do
justice TO the men claiming this grant2 Was
there danger that the rights Of settlers on those
lands would be recognized and the public domain
protected By the incoming administration? IL
so. then It evidently mad been installed TOO soon.
Of the patents would be contested. that the
purchasers of the bonds now to be issued might
not claim the protection accorded innocent pur-
chasers without notice
