A Neglected Mead OF Praise.

Our account Of the Sunday school
concert which came off at Ruby Hill
on the Both ult., which appeared in
the SENTINEL two weeks ago, was sub
jected, for want Of space, to a curtail-
ment, by which, as We learn, some Of
the participants were not accorded
their mead Of praise. The SENTINEL
is too gallant to slight the fair sex and
is always willing to meet out justice to
the opposite. We learn Mrs. John
Ivy, a very pretty singer, rendered, in
charming manner and good voice,
" Sweet Spirit hear My Prayer" Miss
Mamie Jenkin, one Of the sweetest
little girls in Eureka county, in rich
and limpid tones that sounded like
the murmuring of ripping waters,
sang the beautiful ballad, "Some Day
I'll Wander Back Again" She is
earning laurels and is freely spoken Of
by all lovers Of music and song as the
"rising star" of Ruby Hill. She was
accompanied by Mrs. NJ. +. Rosseau
on the piano and in the chorus by Mr..
Richard Oates, who is regarded as an
accomplished singer. Miss Jenkins
recitation of a very pretty poem, en-
titled 1.-THE Present Days Are Best"
was greeted with very warm applause.

To CURE THE TASTE FOR
LIQUOR.
The Cause OF the Thirst-A simple
Remedy sugx ested.


A correspondent OF the New York
Sun, in answer to the question,
Can any one give me a cure for
drunkenness ?" says:
Indulgence in spirits after a
while-which is longer or shorter &C.
cording to the constitution Of the per-
son-produces irritation, infamma-
ton and fever OF the stomach, hence
the craving for drink and the greater
the fever the greater the craving. As
spirits act also on the nervous system
and on the brain, the nervous system
becomes impaired and the brain
weakened. Who can deny that a per-
son ailing in these several ways Is
laboring under a serious disease?
lie has then no will power to exercise,
because the seat OF the will is in the
nervous centers, and when these are
impaired or destroyed so is also the
will power.
Here is the cure: Let the person
have within his reach a small vial Of
the best kind OF tincture of Peruvian
bark, and when the craving for liquor
comes on him let him take a teaspoon
full Of the tincture every two hours.
In a few days the taste for liquor is
destroyed, and destroyed while indulg-
ing in it, for tincture Of Peruvian bark
is spirits into which has been drawn
all the substance Of Peruvian bark.
1t is to be found in every drug store,
but it should be Of the very best.
Peruvian bark is a tonic. 1t is
also the best, if not the only cure
known for fever. 1t is from Peruvian
bark that q~uinine is extracted, and
moreover, it is anti-periodic. 1t is by
these three agencies that it destroys
the craving for liquor. Any one wish
ing to be cured of that ailment can be
in the way | have described, but there
are few drunkards indeed who wish to
be cured"

A FAKE FIGHT.
Fruekeeites Harness Their Morbid
Curiosity TO the sweet Chariot of
Charity.

Curiosity 20 the sweet Chariot Of
Charity.
Two pugilists came to town last
week from Sacramento, says the
Truckee Republican. They were
gladiators from away back and were
scientists from the word 90. They
came by fast freight, and were hungry
and poyerty-stricken. Some philan-
thropic citizens, devotees Of the manly
art, proposed that these two indi-
viduals engage in a bloody encounter
TO a finish, and take the door receipts.
The pro position was accepted, the
distinct understanding being that they
should literally wipe the ground with
each other. SO a crowd gathered on
the quiet, and on Sunday night, at
the hall, the fight commenced. II
was soon Eel they did not intend to
hurt each other and the fight was the
fakest kind Of a fake. Those who got
up the encounter got mad and swore
by the sun, moo and stars that they
should not get a cent, and they didn't.
They were not even given anything
to eat, and they came to the con
clusion that Truckee was no place for
them. The door receipts, amount
ing to s12 80, were given to a poor
half-dependent girl from Carson City,
who has given birth to a fatherless
child.
