A RUNAwAY ACCIDENT.
d H. Davis L. Severely Injured
Near Pinto Summit.

J. ii. Davis, representing the Holt Trac-
tion Wagon Company Of Stockton, CAL,
arrived at Eureka by Thursdays train, and
left about 2 o'clock that afternoon with q
livery rig, driven by Merrill Fletcher, for
the purpose of looking over the road be-
tween here and Pinto Canyon, with a view
to deciding as to the feasibility Of estab.
fishing a traction service for hauling ores
from Hamilton to Eureka.
While going down the other side of Pinto
Summit the horses took fright, and getting
beyond control, started on q lively run.
Mr.. Davis, getting excited, deliberately
took of his overcoat, and notwithstanding
the assurance of Mr.. Fletcher that he
would be able to bring the horses under
control, he jumped from the buggy over
the cover, which had been lowered, and sus-
tanned injuries from which it will take him
some time to recover. After going about
half a mile further, Nh. Fletcher succeeded
in q~uieting the frightened animals, and
driving back. met his passenger, who was
proceeding towards him. Blood was flow
ing from wounds on his nose and chin, and
they proceeded to Pinto Station, where
Thomas Fitzpatrick rendered what aid he
could in making him comfortable. After
bandaging the wounds, Mr.. Fletcher
brought the injured man back to Eureka,
where DIR. NJ. J. Davis dressed the injuries.
1t was found that his nose wa broken, the
flesh being split the entire length, and that
the upper lip wa badly torn and lacerated,
not enough skin remaining to cover the
wound. The inside Of the lip was also
bruised and cut by coming in contact with
the teeth, and he was generally badly
bruised and shaken up.
DIR. Davis says that his patient will bear
permanent scars on his nose and lip as a
result of the accident. but he does not an
ticipate that his injuries will result seri.
ously. Mr.. Davis was made comfortable
at the Brown Hotel, and had so far recov.
cred Friday morning that he took the train
for home. not feeling equal to the task Of
making a further examination of the road.
Mr.. Fletcher was not injured in any
way, and no damage was done to either the
horses or the buggy.

AGAINST THE LOTTERY.

To the People of Eureka County:
As considerable speculation has been
INDUCED in since the day Of election %
to my position on the Lottery Amend
ment, which is to be considered 81 the
coming session Of the Legislature, and
in order that there may be no surprise
expressed after the final vote is taken on
that measure. l take this means Of pub
licly stating my views to my constitu-
ents, and promising them that my vote
will be cast in accordance Herewith.
In my opinion the success of the Lot
terry measure would not only disgrace
Nevada in the eyes Of the people through
out the rest of the country. but If i.
succeeds in obtaining q foothold within
our borders it will prove . curse TO the
State, and one which ID will require
years to shake of after its evils become
thoroughly realized.
At the last session Of the Legislature
l cast my vote against the Lottery
Amendment, and as l have not changed
my views regarding il since then, I want
il understood that 1 will oppose it at the
coming session. and will do all in my
power to accomplish its defeat.

Another Attempt Being Made 60
Change she schedule.

During the past week, says the White
Pine News. a petition was circulated in Ely
asking the Postoffice Department to so
change the mail schedule between this
place and Ely that all stages will leave Eu-
reka at z o'clock A. NJ. Out of sympathy
for the contractor, who it is claimed finds
its difficult to make his receipts offset his
expenses, many people signed the docu-
ment, but the business men and others who
appreciate a fast mail service, prepared and
circulated a counter petition, which crit
cized the alleged poor service rendered. and
demanded that the mails leave Eureka i'm
mediately after the arrival here of the
train and stage from the north.
For some time past a rumor has been
ahoat that an effort was being made to in
duce the Department to so change the
service hat Ely's mail would go by way
of Cherry Creek, instead of from Eureka,
and at this end of the line it is believed
that the present scheme, by which the Ely
mails would be delayed about twenty
hours, is part of a plan to so disgust the
people of Ely with the service that any
kind of a change would be welcome to
them.
Eureka, as we'll as Ely, is interested in
this matter, and while all will sympathize
with the local contractor, if he is losing
money on the route. still the fact remains
that the Government is willing to pay a
good price for the service, and if parties
whose zeal for contracts permits them to
assume the responsibility at prices which
will not allow them to give a reasonably
good service. they should not complain il
the people step forward and assert their
rights.
Both petitions will &c to the Department
together, and it is to be hoped that the
whole matter will be so explained that the
mail service between Eureka and Ely will
DOT only be maintained, but improved.

GRAND JURY's REPORT.
That Body Finds q Number os
Thfngs to Condemn.

80 tOuuemn.
After being in session only a little more
than two days the Grand Jury on Thurs
day presented their final report to Judge
fitzgerald, aud were shortly afterward dis.
charged. Considering the services rendered.
this jury made remarkable progress, and
will undoubtedly receive the thanks of the
taxpayers for the economy and diligence
which they practiced. Following will be
found the general report Of the Jury as
made to the Court, the sub-reports Of the
several committees being unavoidably
crowded out of this issue; but the complete
report as filed will appear in the next issue
of the SENTINEL:
To the Honorable A. L. Fitzgerald, Dis.
trict Judge Of the Third Judicial District
Court Of the State Of Nevada, in and
for Eureka county:
We, the Grand Jury impaneled on the
18th day of December, 1900, and charged
by your Honor with the duty of making
such examination and investigation Of the
affairs Of Eureka county and the official
conduct of its various officers, beg to
submit the following report:
We find that the sanitary conditions
existing in the town Of Eureka are far
from satisfactory by reason Of the careless.
ness of many people in throwing and
dumping manure, rubbish. tin cans, papers,
and trash OF all kinds In the streets and
vacant lots, in utter disregard of the
health, comfort, and good order of the
community; and we also find that hogs,
cows, and other live stock are permitted
to run about the streets. to the great
annoyance of many people who complain,
and condemn the practice Of permitting
this to continue as a public nuisance.
The Grand Jury therefore approves the
action Of the Board Of Commissioner in
passing an Ordinance some months ago
providing for the prevention and punish
ment of offenses against the good order
and health Of the tow of Eureka and the
people thereof, and recommends that the
Board Of Commissioners take such further
action as is provided by the statutes for
making such Ordinance effective.
We would also most earnestly call the
attention of the proper officers to a strict
obedience in the enforcement Of the law
relating to the sale of whisky and other
ardent spirits to Indians. The almost
open violation of this law is a disgrace to
the community, and the continued prac.
tice Of allowing the i%nfrine ement of a
statute which is designed as a most neces-
sary safeguard against possible serious
consequences, can not but be deeply re.
GREETED by the best citizens, and we con-
denim the i~naction of the officers whose
duty II Is to enforce the law, and hope
this criticism may have the desired effect,
and cure the apparent neglect of duty.
We take pleasure in commencing the
management of the financial affairs Of the
county, and believe that the administra-
ton of the Board of Commissioners, and
other officers connected with this branch
Of the County Government, has been wise,
careful, and economical in all respects that
have com under our notice, and is a mat
ter for sincere congratulation for our tax
payers.
