AMATEUR NIGHT
FEATURES OF MUCH.
MERIT PROMISED

Amateur Night features of unusual
merit are promised for the entertain
ment Of those who visit the Teer-Na
Nogue, or Irish fair, at Eagles hall
tonight. A number of young ladies
who have never appeared in public
before, will contribute to the enter
tainment, and try for prizes which will
be awarded to those who provide the
best acts. Many entries were made
last night and the list includes the
Misses Nina Salmon and Ethel Miller,
two pretty little girs who sing and
dance like professionals. Grover
Cleveland O'Neill will present a sing
ing speciality, and the friends of Miss
Irene Hutton, who has an excellent
soprano voice, have urged her to en-
ter. There will be many other fea-
lures of interest. George T. McCar-
thy will supervise the program.
This evening members of st. Jo-
seph's Temperance Society will ap-
pear in a body, to attend the car
Mval, upon invitation of the general
committee. While the attendance at
the carnival has been large every
night and the entertainment is very
successful, some familiar faces are
missing, and the general committee
expects the members of the United
Irish Societies of Bridgeport to help
out in the work of making the affair
the greatest success in the history OF
these organizations. Last night the
Hylands came up from Polls theatre
and made a great hit with the crowd,
the work of Miss Hyland, who is just
entering her teens, was considered of
a high order. The courtesy of Man.
ager Carney and Mr.. Pol in contrib
ut1ng to rival amusement, IS appre-
ciated by the members.

The sensational story of the arrest
Of certain labor union officials for the
Los Angeles Times crime cannot fail
to stir up ugly passions. That muir
derous outrage calls aloud for VEN
geance, and the arrest and punish
ment of the men who did it is a most
desirable thing. But it is we'll to wait
and see before breaking out in con-
gratulations to society ON SO satisfac-
tory a result. Detectives under the
stimulus of great rewards and pro-
fessional ambition have been strain
ing every nerve to catch somebody.
There is great pressure upon them to
do something to justify their preten-
sions to skill in the detection of crime.
Society is crying out for exposure
which shall avenge the past and Sc
cure the future. 1t is intolerable
that these crimes should go on, piling
up one after another, until the aggre-
gate of property loss and human ter
ror and death is dreadful to think Of
The labor leaders claim that under
this pressure the detectives have
planted" the evidence they claim to
have found and are now digging it
UP. The truth must appear before
long and most of us can afford to wait
for it.

Tt will be remembered that Miss
Katherine Beers, daughter of Prof
Henry A. Beers of Yale, one Of the
most eminent English scholars in the
country, was excluded from the
dances at Annapolis because she was
companion under salary to her friend,
the wife of Lieutenant Commander
Tarrant. An investigation proves
that the person who was responsible
for the exclusion of Miss Beers was
Capt. Bowyer, superintendent of the
Naval Academy, and that, under pres
ready to apologize. It is believed that
Capt. BowyerS retirement as super
fntendent of the Academy is further
punishment for his snobbery. If it
is not, 1T ought to be. In the first
place, of all people in the world, the
last claim to affect social superior
ity. The officers of our army and
navy are rightly drawn from the or
binary ranks of life all over the coun-
try, and, as a rule, have little of fam
ny inheritance or social position OF
which to boast This is so generally
recognized that at Newport even the
United States uniform is not a pass
port ITO society, those officers only be-
ing admitted to exclusive circles who
happen to come from families of rec
ogniZed position, or whose wives are
members OF such families. AS rule,
officers in the navy dislike exceeding
ly a Newport assignment. Further,
Miss Beers, known to some Waterbury
people as a most charming young
woman, was studying domestic sci
ence and in pursuit of that speciality
took the position she had with her
friend Mrs Tarrant. AT this time
when, everywhere on both sides of the
Atlantic, a serious attempt is being
made to interest women in the care
of children and the household as
scientific pursuit, 1t is most inappro-
PIRATE and most unfortunate that any
social stigma should be permitted to
attach to any young woman who is
willing to take up this new profess
sion one likely to prove Of such great
value to society.

COMMISSIONER DISTRICTS
Senator Sweeney Explains Why
Legislature Has No Power
to Act In That Matter

The SENTINEL has received the fol-
lowing communication from Senator
w. H. Sweeney regarding the dividing
of the county into commissioner dis
tricts. The Senator has investigated
the law bearing on that matter and
gives the reasons why it nj be done
by enactment by the Legislature. He
says:
Carson, Nevada, March A, 1911.
Editor SENTINEL: For the informa-
ton Of quite a number Of my constitut-
ents residing in the northern part OF
Eureka County who desire that the
county shall be so districted as to insure
a County Commissioner from that end
of the county. permit me to say that
upon examination / find that in 1908
an Act was passed by the Legislature
of this State, and is still in force,
which provides that upon the presenta-
ton to the Board of County Commits
sioners, at their meeting held in July
prior to any general election. Of q petit
ton signed by 90 per cent of the quail
fed voters of the county, it shall be
the duty of the Board to divide the
county into three commissioner dis
tricts. This Act will be found on page
40l Of Cuttings Compiled Laws. and
is. l believe, all the legislation that is
nacossarv IN prokact all sactiona of the
county 30 far as the election Of County
Commissioners is concerned, il the citi-
zsns interested will prepare and present
the necessary petition at the time
stated in the Act referred to.
Let me add that an Act that attempts
to Sc district the county that the in
habitants of a certain portion Of the
county may elect a County Commits
sioner from that particular section is,
as l am advised and believe. uncon-
stitutional, and would be of no effect if
enacted. The only way by which the
citizens of the northern end Of the
county can be sure of q commissioner is
by proceeding under the law above
stated.
You cannot make one district in the
north end and comply with the law. as
it would be unconstitutional.
Please give the above space in your
columns and oblige. Yours truly.

GAMBLERS ARRESTED
Twenty one Men In Custody VIII Make
Test of the Gambling Law

Constable Wolf and deputies last Sat.
urday arrested 81 men in the Nevada
Club at Lovelock aud took them to
Winnemucca for a hearing On felony
charges.
Alvin Hendrickson, q well known
sporting man, was among the number
taken charged with conducting and par.
ticipating in divers games Of stud poker
and pitchcard games. Two were given
a hearing Monday and bound over to
await the action Of the grand jury as
for a felony. Over $1,000. found on the
card table 1t the time of arrest, was
coniscated as evidence. Three others
arrested will have an early hearing.
The others. it is believed, will be held.
presumably until it develops whether a
test case will be made.
Considerable resentment over the ar
rests is expressed by the gambling men.
who intimate that card playing had
been tacitly excepted from the enforce
ment of the law by custom. They o
are eager for a battle all along the line
in a legal way.

Notes From The Legislature

Assemblyman Jones of Washoe has introduced a divorce bill
providing that six months residence in the State, without any bona
intention of making the State a permanent home, will be suf-
fcient for a person seeking a divorce to gain a legal residence and
secure a divorce.
The Salter bill regulating marriages came up for first reading
and reference in the Senate the other day. Without hesitation the
referred the measure to the Committee on Public High
and Bridges. They figured out that the marriage question
took the contracting parties over some pretty rocky roads, and that
as a rule they found several bridges out before they finish hfe's
span. 1t is believed that the Road and Bridge Committee can
amend this bill so that it will make married life more pleasant to
all parties.
