FALCONIO IS GUEST.


of education in our parochial school,
Our Catholic societies are large and
progressive and our Catholic hospital
is pride of Kansas. But greater
achievem ents are before us In the
words of one of our native poets:
1t is morning here in Kansas. and the
breakfast bell is rung,
We are not yet. fairly started on the
work we mean to dc;
We have all the day before u.s. and the
morning is but young,
And there's hope in every zephyr
and the skies are bright and blue.
In parting, let me say: Our earn
est prayer is that God will bless our
holy father with many fruitful years
of peace and happiness in the gov
eminent of the church that he will
bless you in your great work among
our people; that he will give you many
years in the vineyard of the Lord And
when the hour of reckoning comes
that he will give to you as he gave to
your Industrious and holy founder,
Francis Assist, a crown of everlast-
ing glory and "a dwelling place of eter-
nal bliss

New YORK Stock Marbes.

Wall St, New York, Feb. 27.-STOCKS-
General weakness was shown by the ac-

OF 3,Ovv shares and Union Pacific q each
A Few gains were made, however, among
which were advances of "a in American
Agriculture Chemical and IL in United

The pressure to sell abated after tha
opening and the market became quieter
were in brisk demand and their advance
gave tone TO the general market which
eventually recovered to SATURDAYS clos

lew sharp losses among the inactive spec
iatieS.
Sales of stocks bought on the sharp de-
cine OF last Friday weakened the market
at the outset this morning but these Offer
lnSS were fairly well taken and the mar
ket improved. Uncertainty as to whether
declslons of the supreme court in cases
anect1ng Wall Street would be announced
today, limited the demand to small pro-
portions, although there was considerable
covering on the theory that none of the
looked Tor decisions would be made today
and the market in consequence would adj
vance strongly when this was known
definitely. BY midday prices of the i'm

gains were noted in various sDeciaIfies
such as the fertilizer group.

REMEDY FOR POISONED DOGS
Directions Given What to Do When the
Animal Is First Affected

About q week ago il was reported that
four or five dogs were poisoned in and
around Eureka, but upon investigation
only one case was found. hat being the
little rat terrier Of Edgar Sadler of
Diamond Valley. Sometimes valuable
dogs are poisoned. and if the owners Of
such animals know what to do, and do
1t at once, the CANNES may often he
saved.
From one Of our exchanges published
in o locality where a number Of dogs
had recently been poisoned we take the
following, which it says is an effective
mode Of treatment when the animal
is first affected:
Strychnine is the poison most fire.
quently employed. 1t especially affects
the hind quarters and spine of the
animal, with q tendency to paralyze
and prevent walking upright, the hind
feet dragging heavily as the poison ad.
vances in effect. These symptoms
sometimes show before any signs of
commissions begin. At once give the
dog all the melted lard, suet. fat or any
oil or possible form of grease which may
be quickly secured. For some hours, at
least, allow no water or milk to be
taken by the dog.
A dog which is regularly fed about
twice per week with a small portion OF
common copperas the size of a pea, in
with a bit of meat, is enabled to resist
poison better. aud. in fact, is said to be-
come immune to a certain extent from
poison. and it is q good tonic to the
system generally.

INSPECTOR VISITS EUREKA
Remains Here Two Days Investi.
g~ating-Gives All Interested
Parties a Hearing

j. s. Roberts, a Postal Inspector, ar.
rived in Eureka by last Saturday after
Moons stage. He was ordered here BY
the Post Office Department to look into
aud investigate the matter of the pro.
posed change of mail route. ~discontinu.
ing the present service from Palisade to
Eureka, to the new route from Ely tc
Eureka via Hamilton. He remained
here Sunday and Monday, during which
time he met and heard statements from
a number Of business men and others,
who strongly advocated that no change
be made from the present service from
Palisade t. Eureka.
While Mr.. Roberts stated it was the
intention to put on an all-night service
between Ely and Eureka. thus bringing
the mail in here on the same schedule
time as is now obtained from Palisade
to Eureka. the Inspector was informed
by those present who are familiar with
conditions along both routes that
eSOy uiu NV ehiuh INC same ser
vice could be maintained during
the Winter months for the
reason that there are five heavy sum-
mits to cross between Eureka and Ely,
aud for the past four or FIVE yesrs there
has been very little travel over that
road since the railroad from Ely to the
Southern Pacific line was built. As q
result the road has not been kept in
6rst-class condition. On the present
route from Eureka to Palisade there is
but n low summit TO cross. and owing
to the great quantities of freight being
brought to Eureka the roads are kept in
good repair.
On his way up from Palisade Mr.. Rob
erts was informed that il the proposed
change was put into effect 90 people.
which he verified. living between Ro-
mano and Palisade would be cut out en-.
tirely from mail facilities.
During the two days that Mr.. Roberts
remained in Eureka he made it a point
not only to talk with all who had any
thing to offer on the subject, but solicit
ed interviews from interested parties
who we're in a position to give him the
facts regarding the conditions that
the proposed change would bring about
to the people Of this section AMI those
living in the north end of the county
not only regarding mail service. but
also the loss Of any means of regular
passenger transportation between Eu-
reka and Mineral Hill. Pine Valley and
Palisade and in these interviews it was
shown hat to reach the countv seat at
Eureka from Palisade via Ely and Ham
ilton the fare would be at least $50, as
against $40 by the present route.
Mr.. Roberts informed the SENTINEL
that his report will Of necessity be of
exact details and conditions as found by
him after having completed his trip
over the routes from Palisade to Ely,
and this report will be forwarded to the
Post Office Department at Washington
at once. He left by private conveyance
for Hamilton Tuesday morning.

Woodruff & Ennor's stage was stopped
Wednesday this side Of Mineral Hill
by two men who demanded and re-
ceived the express box and captured
some baggage. Usually Wells, Fargo
L 90. send q guard through from PAIL
SADIE, but on this occasion there were
only the driver and two passengers.
Judging from this fact, We imagine that
the express box contained but little Of
value. The worst feature Of the trans
action was the wretches took the bag
containing the paper mail from the
boot. leaving us destitute of exchanges.
This time We can account for the alb
sence Of newspaper mail. and are graft
fed that some satisfactory explanation
can now be given.
We were shown an assay to-day by
Mr.. Lehman Of a piece OF ore from
Secret Canyon the result Of which was
$3.50. The owner AYERS that he has 40
tons Of the same sort Of ore now on the
dump.
Paxton & Co. yesterday shipped for
the Pinto Mining Company by Wells.
Fargo & Co. to the Oriental Bank Cor
poration. London, England. four bars
weighing l79 pounds and valued at
So, 254.4S.
We have been informed that the
Adams Hill Mining Company has pur.
chased a mill site near the Lemon Com
pany's property and the work Of build
ing a 20 stamp mill will o be COM
menced.
We have a fashion in Eureka of house
moving which is less expensive than in
many localities. A jug Of "sheep
herder's delight" will move any build
ing in town, together with . sufficient
number Of men. who pick it up bodily
and walk off with the same. We saw a
house travelling down Buel street at
quick time yesterday.
Yesterday the Lemon Company start
ed it's mill for the first time on ore. Fiji
teen stamps are 70 in motion pound
ing rock from the company's own
mines, which are noted for the rich
character OF the ore.
The dreaded small pox having entire
ly disappeared from our midst, Robin
son & Stowell will reopen their roomy
skating rink on Thursday evening next.
Twenty tons OF bullion per day is the
average yield of the four furnaces of the
Eureka Consolidated, and transportation
proves insufficient to take away the bars
as fast as they are made. On approach
ing the works long piles Of wood are
passed on either hand, and stacks OF
bullion are piled in front OF the build
ings. The mountain OF charcoal in the
rear is covered securely with canvas to
protect it from the weather and the bins
are filled with ore.
Big Alex Flemming. the genial prop
rietor of the Ruby saloon on Ruby Hill,
was in town Yesterday snd makes the
following report of the effects Of the
storm there the other night: The high
wind blew down the house of a widow
lady, causing but little damage other
than broken boards, etc. Alex says he
held his house down this time by pure
muscular strength, avowing he would
have put on his spurs and mounted it
if the wind got the best OF him.
