Order For Sheriffs To Collect

the payment of cigarette and tobacco
licenses by saloon men and liquor deal
ers where cigars, cigarettes and
tobacco are kept as their stock -in-trade

sion has aroused considerable feeling
among the ~saloonmen. who in the past
have not been required to pay the extra

based on an opinion written BY Cleve-
land II. Baker. the late encouragement,
issued recently by Attorney-Gen era
Thatcher.

of Eureka, n 9 Of the few surviving
members of Upton Post. G.. A. R., to
see if the post was still in possession of
any old flags or other mementoes which
might be loaned to Ely for the day.
With his reply Mr.. Broy sends a copy
of the printed program of the day as OBJ
served in Eureka in 1882. His letter is
in part as follows:
1--WE had on our muster roll So men,
bers. / am the only n still living in
Eureka and there are but six members
of the post now living. / sent our rit-
uals to headquarters in San Francisco
after the post disbanded. but l still have
our post flag and charter. The other
flags have all been loaned on different
occasions and they have not been re.
turned"
brother Mclean remembers well
how our post observed the day for q
number of years until our members were
so few that we now have to let others
take the lead.
"With best wishes for the success of
your exercises, believe me
Sincerely yours,
@. L. Broy."
From the programme itself it lie noted
that Thomas Haley, now of Ely. was
one of the marshals of the day. J. S.

NEAT BURGLARY JOB IN EUREKA
Premises Of c. B. Bale Entered and
Valuables Taken From His Safe

Natu8otS& A8k6n from NlA4 98Ae
@. B. Bale. who conducts q saloon
and harness shop on south Main street
in Eureka. and with his wife has living
apartments in the same building. met
with quite loss Tuesday evening while
they were temporarily absent from the
building.
While they were absent some person
broke a pane OF glass from q door at the
rear Of the building, and reaching in.
released the spring lock and obtained an
entrance. This person must have
had q pretty good idea Of the lay of the
land and where Mr.. Biale's valuables
we're kept. for the Yale paddock on q
small homemade safe was wrenohed
apart with an ice pick or small bar and
two tin boxes cont aining coin and pri-
vate papers were taken from the safe.
Mr.. Bales box contained si10 or el15
in currency and coin. besides some pri-
vate papers. The other box belonged to
his brother. now working In the north
end of the county. and tie contents are
not known, but IL is also thought to
have contained some money.
The cash register behind the bar in
the saloon was not disturbed, and q
close inspection of the premises shows
no effort was made to ecure other valu-
ables. As the safe was in Mr.. and Mrs.
Bales bedroom behind q curtain and 90
placed that a stranger could hardly dis.
cover il without a close search, and az
Mr.. and Mrs. Bale we're only absent
from the premises a few minutes over
an hour. it is snrmised hat the culprit
was no stranger.
Mr.. Bale was. however. fortunate in
escaping a still greater loss. When he
left the house he took ont over $500 in
currency, intending to obtain orders at
the Post Office for sending the money
away. but reached the Office that even.
ing too late to obtain the orders.
