To Our Patrons.

The season of the year has come when
money is in circulation, and the printer
asks that all who are in arrears come for
ward and settle. We have been very in
dulgent to many of our patrons for ad-
vertising as well as subscription. 10 all
who are in arrears year or more we
will send statements of their account,
and hope that each and every one will
oblige us by prompt remittance. The
printing of a first-class weekly paper
like the SENTINEL, involves n great deal
Of expense, hence the necessity of re-
quiring our patrons to adhere rs nearly
as possible to a cash basis. No offense
is meant by us in rendering accounts to
our debtors, aud none should be taken.
Observance of business principles, as
we'll as nesessity, compels the prompt
collection Of all dues. Those therefore
knowing themselves indebted to the SEN
T1NEL for subscription or advertising
would confer favor by settling ut their
earliest opportunity.

Ting, it is thought, is not yet at an end.
For week premonitory signs of the cave
in have been noticed by experienced
miners, and one of them made it his
business to warn the inhabitants of
those houses to keep low fires in their
stoves, and make preparations to take
drop down. They concerned them
selves but little, as cave-ins are of CON-
mon occurrence In this region, and
while the women of the warned houses
were preparing their MONDAY meal,
the earth began to settle and in a
few momentse the houses were al
most standing on end. The
fires in the stoves were quickly
eXtinguished. The danger now lies in
an extension of the cave-in, which is
altogether probable from present indi-
cations. A few feet from the scene of
the disaster, and in direct line with it,
is the cemetery, and fears are enter
tanned that this will yield to the press

WASTING THEIR TIME.
Washburu and Window Trying
to Defeat Davis.

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The Mime.
sotans who have been here during the
past SIX months, and they have been
legion, are all imbued with the idea
that Senator Washburn and Secretary
Window are in league to defeat Senator
Davis for a denomination. Whether
this is so or not remains to he seen. Its,
however, the universal opinion among
MinneSotanS. Senator Davis is not
worrying himself about it in the least.
He is simply working away doing his
duty as senator and trying to do all
he can for the state, and is not troubling
himself with looking after the condition
of his fences. Speaking of the reported
combine A. II. Wilder remarked the
other day that If it was true. Messrs
Washburn and Window were wasting
their time. 'Senator Davis,'' said he,
lis SO strongly entrenched in the hearts
of the people of Minnesota that he will
prove hard man to defeat. He may
not be able to spend large amount Of
money to secure his denomination. and
there is little doubt that the other fell
lows can if they so desire spend a large
amount. However, think that he can
have his denomination in spite of
money. The people of Minnesota love
him. He has made splendid senator
and l think there Is not much doubt
that he will receive a unanimous re-
nomination."

three officers was seriously cut about
the hands. Robert Black, murderouslv
insane man. was finally arrested this
morning and safely lodged in Jail.
About 10 o'clock he entered the house
in (which lives his sister and her hus-
band, William Crossley. In one of his
hands he held a fiatiron, the other
grasped an iron poker. With a demo-
niacai yell he sprang across and knocked
Crossley down with the poker. jumped
OH his PROSTATE victim and was about
to beat out his brains, when the cries of
his sister distracted his attention. The
maniac turned on Mrs. Crossley.
and she narrowly escaped a
savage blow aimed at her head. The
yells of the mailman had aroused the
neighborhOod by this time. and, seeing
the crowd, Black seizedi shotgun and
went to bed room, barricading the
door. When the three officers arrived
Black was sitting on the bed with the
gun to his shoulder covering the will,
dow. Gaining entrance by back door,
the officers entered the room and seized
him from behind. Then ensued des-
perate struggle. but the mailman was
finally handcuffed. Though badly
bruised and injured by the blow he re-
ceived from the poker, CroSsley'S inju-
rieS are not considered fatal.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-That Duluth

stocks side. Col. Graves expressed the
situation pretty we'll the other day.

BILE temptation. The salary is only
$1,000, and the properties handled are
of such enormous value that the posi-
ton is very responsible. Great corpora

Sary that some man should be appointed

speaking of the same matter, says: II

mendatiOn because / want to make no
mistake. ! shall not recommend a man
Oh political grounds. but am endeaVOr
ing to find one who will make a good

which is giving me some difficulty.
When c. P. Maginnis is removed to
make room for another man, want him
to go out with no suspicion attaching TO
him. l, therefore. do not want him re-
moved for cause. .AsperSions have been
made, rejecting upon his character as
an official and charging dishonesty in
the administration of the land office.
These aspersions and charges are, /
believe, entirely unwarranted, and am
particularly DESTROYS that no action of
mine should serve to give any color to
the idea that they are given any cred
ence, either 10y myself or by the admin
istration. This may delay matters to
to some extent, but think in the. end
will result i'll the appointment OF first
class officer and the removal of MIR.
Maginnis with no stigma or shadow of
suspicion resting against his character.
From this it will be seen that Mr.. Com
stock is only delaying matters from a
desire TO be fair. Col. Colvill, register
of the Duluth land Office. and }. e.
Flynn, postmaster, at the same splace,
will not be removed until their terms
expire. which is still remote. both being
