10 announce that the sessions of the

d. d. Ogilvie, State Sheep Inspec-
tor. who has been going through a
number of bands of sheep in the
north end os the county, was an ar
rival by Fridays train. He left for
Duckwater this morning with A. c..
Florio.
The SENTINEL is in receipt of al
letter from Senator Newlands in
which it is stated that a consignment
of garden seeds has been shipped to
this office for general distribution
among the ranchers and others who
care to make gardens.
Domingo Recatume is setting the
pace in this section for his brother
sheepmen, and they will surly have
to speed up some to catch him. He
has purchased a Hudson Super-Six
auto, and the new car was delivered
to him at Palisade on Thursday of
this week.
Ralph Irwin of D~uckwater; who
has recently been making trips into
Eureka, was taken down the first of
the week with the measles and has
since been confined to his room at
the Zadow Hotel. He is reported to
be getting along all right and ex-
poets to be out in a day or so.
The plans of the Eureka Land 81
Live Stock Company to shear about
5000 head of their sheep at Oak Sta
ton commencing last Tuesday. were
called off on account of the inclement
weather conditions. but the crew of
shearers was held and it is under
stood that another attempt to COM
mence shearing will be made to-day.
The local train from Palisade failed
to reach Eureka last Monday. Sew
eral fues in the boiler of the engine
commenced leaking after the train
left Palisade and. after reaching the
Hay Ranch, about Is miles out. the
trip was abandoned and the engine
and coach went back to Palisade. Al
train was run to Eureka on Tuesday. |
We are glad to report that the
measles epidemic in this community
has about passed and there r now
only two or three cases reported.
Most of the children have returned
to school. and the adults who con-
tracted the disease are 0 to be
found doing business at their same
old stands. All seem to feel graft
fed that the epidemic is over.
Frank Winzell came up from Alpha
by Fridays train, and when he re-
turns will try and go home in his,
auto. He left his car with the Eu-
reka Garage last Fall for a thorough
overhauling. and when he started
home with it about a month ago was
unable to get over the Garden Pass
summit on account of the deep snow
and was forced to bring it back to
the garage.
1t is learned that the cold and
stormy weather that continued
through last week and the early part
OF this week proved of a most trying
nature to the sheep shearing opera
tons that were being carried on at
Alpha Station. Finally. the owners
OF two lots of sheep to be sheared re-
fused to have their iocks sheared at
this time on account of the severe
weather conditions and the shearers
were paid off and dismissed.
