THE LATE DENNY COOnEY
Tribute Paid to the Memory Of Deceased
By an Old Friend

Communicated
The many friends of the late Dennis
Cooney. who died in Eureka about two
years ago, will be glad to know that on
tuesday last the headstone, which had
been sent for. was placed on his grave
in the Catholic cemetery. which, with
the neat but transformations railing com
pletes his last resting place.
The estate was an humble one. con-
sisting Of 200 shares Of Jumbo Exten.
sion stock, which brought s72 net. two
cabins, $40. and cash $50; in all $I92.
The sum. however, was sufficient to
cover all expenses. His friend, Cos
Hiniz.as administrator, made no charge
for his time or trouble. and Mr.. Hender-
son, attorney for the administrator, as
well as Mr.. Mechanics. County Clerk,
waived the greater part of their fees for
their work.
An ''old timer" was little "Dinny,"
as he was familiarity called. Short in
stature, compactly aud stockily built, he
was in his day a mau who was not only
able. but ever willing to do a fair days
work for a fair days wages. He came
to Eureka more than 30 years ago aud
worked in the smelling furnaces as long
as there were any to work in. He saw
and enjoyed Eureka In its palmy days,
and loved the old town and gloried in
its great past, as q father might glory
In the high achievements of his child.
Scrupulously honest, he never failed.
even in the hardest times, to meet his
simple obligations, and died without
owing a dollar.
In friendship he was as true as steel,
and to serve a friend. as the saying il,
would Ego to his neck in the river"
On the neat little headstone the fol-
lowing epitaph is engraved, composed
for it by his lifelong, warm, personal
friend. Judge Peter Breen:
humble toller. from boy hood to the grave ;
Poor Of this worlds goods. and lowly his career.
Loyal In friendship. manly. truthful, brave
Gods noblest work-an honest man sleeps here"
After all, when the last word is said,
and the last sod cast upon the grave.
will not the kindly remembrance that
follows an honest. simple. truthful life.
a thousand times compensate for the
lack Of wealth. perhaps ill-gotten. and
i'll. deserved?
Reouiescat in pace. Amen.

The Tax Roll For 1910

The total tax aoll Of Eureka County
for 1910, exclusive Of the personal prop.
erty tax collected by the Assessor. is
81. 500, 1873. as against 81, 1885, ASP for 1909.
The total valuation of the property
outside of the town Of Eureka is 50, 1884,.
9l6.
The personal property collected on by
the Assessor is SAG, 607.
The valuation of the property inside
the town limits of Eureka is $118,207. a
falling off of some $50. COO from last year,
mainly owing to the decrease in the as.
sessmeut of the Eureka County Bank,
which, according to the advice of the
Attorney General. could only be law.
fully assessed for it's realty and i'm
provements.
This falling off of property in the
town of Eureka will leave the fire fund
of the town In a very bad condition
The Commissioners can only levy a tax
rate of so cents on the 800 on the above
valuation, which would realize $3.50
Against this there is a standing ex-
pense of 1928 per annum-$40 per month
for water and 81 per month for fire
warden for testing fire hydrants, which
only leaves 500 for the purchase of hose,
necessary repairs to fire hydrants. and
other incidental expenses.

YET NO RAILROAD
RECONSTRUCTION NEWS

All kinds of rumors regarding
the rebuilding of the Eureka &
Palisade Railroad have been cur
rent in Eureka during the week.
But the SENTINEL has been unable
to obtain the slightest informa-
ton of a reliable nature that
would prove that any new move
looking to the reconstruction OF
the road has recently been made
While the SENTINEL has al
ways heretofore believed the
road would be rebuilt this year,
the long delay in making a start
has about caused the abandon
ment of hope that it will now be
rebuilt before early next Spring
Unless the work is commenced
within the next two weeks, it is
almost certain that the handicap
of rebuilding the road during the
Winter months will cause a post
ponement of its reconstruction
until some time next year.
