Tills festival wus unusually quiet to all appearances. A great many pres ents were given away anil the day was generally enjoyed in private circles By the usual indulgence in big dinners and refreshment*. About town, however, the day was quiet. There were a number of |>eoplo aliout the saloons on Christmas eve and during Christmas day, exchanging the compliments of the season over the " flowing bowl,” but very little money was spent at the bars. The restau rants were provided with the best the market atlorded, and probably did a la tter business than the sa loons. In the evening a masquerade hall was given by the Kuroku Star Band, the particulars of which will be found elsewhere. _ IIiiby Hill I'hrlMinaa Tree. Owing to tlio Inclemency of the weather the Christmas tree entertain ment at Kuby Hill was i>ostponed un til Christmas night. It came oil at Miners’ Union Hall under the auspices of the M. E. Church, and was partici pated in by some of the day scholars of the Kuby Hill public school The tree was beautifully decorated, the presents were numerous and hand gome and the enjoyment of the |ieo ple assembled, both old and young, was complete. The exorcises con sisted of Christmas carols by the church choir, and recitations and dia logues by the children, all of which were rendered in excellent style. At ttie conclusion the thanks of the school were expressed for all who con tributed to and assisted in the enter tainment. A K|>lr»ill<l IHimer. Mrs. Julia Brown set out a splendid dinner for Christmas. Fat, young turkeys, (home fed) roast pig, <ran berry'and mince pics, rich fruit and otner cakes and plum pudding were among the dainties.

Although we have experienoed oue of the hardest and longest continued storms that hat ever been known hereabouts, tbs • tore keepers have been kept bnvy and a very fair amount of business has bean done. To those not initiated in tbe aet or nToacKiariKo, The oare, merriment and anxiety, and the disappointments or pleasures incidental to the holidays, sro matters neither under stood nor appreciated. After taking io the Cristinas Tree at tbe Opera House on Christmas eve, this quid nunc dropped Io at Jobcuy Lambert's grocery store, and bis remarks were illustrative. Held he: “ I’ve been worried almost to destb, hut now I'm pleased." On being esked why, he said, " Well, you see I’ve had Io order large quantities of Christmas stuff which I did not kuow if I could sell, and after they were ordered I was afraid they would be held somewhere on tbe road and not get here in time, but I have cleaned out almost everythiog and am as pleased as I can well be.” We looted around and noticed some curioa iu tbe way of new fashioned candies, wbicb elicited an en quiry, tbe reply to wbiob was an invita tion to step around tbe counter and help yourself." There were tbe richest of rich sweetmeats imaginable. French neugets, walnut drops, chocolate rolls, mikados, etc.; marshmallows, operacsrsinels, plum puddiog, bonanza walnuts, maple cream bon bona, cream dates, and such a variety of these sugarplums that ono would hardly imagine there would be sale for them dur ing tbe holidays. Then there were oranges and all tbe fruits of Ibe season, fresh uuts, dates, figs, etc. There were also big paroelsof oleaD while celery, pars ley end nice vegetables of all kinds ob telnable at Christmas lids. Lucks, geese, chickens and bilge turkeys were laid out and marked, ready for delivery fust thing In Ibe morning.

THE BBKWKBIEI. The Eureka and Ban Francisco Brewery iragnna were kept busy during the week lelivering draught and bottled beer, aud ,ba aigns were evident that we would not jave a " dry ” Christmas.

New ilreetliiir The New Year 1890 will dawn upon us next Wednesday. It will come to us with smiles bringing strong holies, with good reasons (or a more pros perous period than we have had for years past. The prospects in the mines of this and the neighboring districts are very |ieroeptiUy improv ing, and the facilities for disjiosing of ore at advantageous rates are now at our command. The heavy snow storms that have prevailed all over the country forecast a hard Winter, but wo hail them with joy, as they will insure our farmers a plenty of water, and, consequently, hii abundance of feed ami the enhancement of all our cattle, agricultural ami mining inter ests. We greet our readers with hearty congratulations, and wish them a happy and pros|ierous New Year. Almost » Fatal Aeeldeut. Frank McMillan, w hile at work with the diamond drill in the ltiehmond mine last Friday received a heavy blow from a monkey-wrench he was using to turn on compressed air. It uppears the handle slipped out of his hand, ami the sudden pressure threw the tool around with terrible swiftness and almost fatal effect, striking Mc Millan a blow that came near reduc ing his face to a pulp. Ilia right eye is still seriously affected and he will tie liable to feel the shaking up for some time to come. We are glad to know that the accident was no worse. Matrimonial.

A I l»*o Eulerlttiumrnl -Npfctnca* lar A|>|M>nraure of Nuiila C'Iau*. Tlie entertainment of the St. James’ Episcopal Sunday school Christmas tree came olf in a very happy manner last Tuesday evening, Cncle “Jack” l’ardy enacting Santa Claus and de lighting the little folks with his quaint appearance and pleasantries. He was ably assisted by Mis. M. E. Kosseao and Masters B. J. l’owell, George Bliss ami Merrill Fletcher. At 7 o’clock in the evening the entertainment commenced by the school singing the hymn, “ Silent Night.” Mrs. Kosseau, with her usual ability, presided at the piano. The Lord's l’rayer and Apostles’ Creed were then related. Little Irene Baker ap|>eared on the stage and sweetly sang “In a Manger,” and was accompanied hy tlie school in the chorus. Next came the Misses Flossy Ford, lUiby l>ean and Allie Cox in a fireside tableau, the young misses ai> pearing en costume ue nuit, entered and hung stockings on the mantel piece. The little folks then sang a carol, entitled “ Christmas Tree.” In the meantime the merry jingle of sleigh liells sounded and Santa Claus, w ith white flowing beard appeared on tlie scene. A shout of joy went up from the children and then liegan the distribution of presents. These were composed of dolls, sets of blocks, books, pai*teries, albums, toilet sets, writing cases, etc., most of which were handsome and useful. The young folks were also supplied with an abundance of candies. The delight depicted on tlie faces of the children was a pleasant picture for the grown folks. One of the most pleasing incidents of tlie evening was when a wax doll was handed to a cute, prattling little tot of onlv2 vearsold, Gertrude Iiives, she folded tlie pretty toy in her arms and kissed it with all the affection that u mother might have evinced for her babe. Could the audience have wit nessed this impromptu tableau vivant, and thought it a part of the entertain ment, it would have l>een readily pro nounced the “hit” of the evening. The Misses Effie Phillips, Annie Young, Florence Cromer, Maud Hives, Mary Olsen and a few other young la dies! whose names we fail to recollect, added much to the entertainment by their excellent singing. A disappoint ment w as caused by the absence jor the time being of Miss Gertrude Ed mund, who waH to have delivered the 0|>ening address, but was detained on account of an accident. Otherwise the entertainment was a success. C'oiii|»llineui« of il«© K©«so«*. “ Ah there! Why it’s fine. Sharp, clear and frisky; just cool enough to drink; and smooth.” “ It goes down with such fine relish, quenches your thirst and does not mount to your head as quickly as most other drinks of the kind.” “ Well may the lord bless Charley and prolong his life in the land.” *• He’s the boss of ’em all.” " Yes he’s a noble good fellow and never forgets his friends.” Such were the greetings in the composing room of the Sentinel office to our whole-souled, honest friend, Charley Lautensehlager, a few minutes after the delivery of a keg of lager beer from the Eureka brewery, a Christmas gift from the big-hearted proprietor. His foaming beer is the test on earth. The Sentinel comps, send their com ! pliments and wish him a ^ Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Til K •4IIIOI.il' (III Kill flu* I InKtimi Tr*l Folhnl Wr.l .%ll<..*«l«**l Nl .nljiUI M «■*. Tne Christinas tree festival »t the Catholic Church came off last Monday evening. The clmrcli was crowded to eicess. The programme interspersed the distribution of toys, candy, etc., to the children with music and recita tions. After a short address from Father Nattini, and a welcome to the audience from Master Charles l.am bert, an original dialogue was spoken by the Misses Fannie MeUarry, (iracie Jackson and Marv Nulty, and poems were delivered by Master Frank Brown and the Misses Annie Mc (larry and Mary Nulty. AH acquitted themselves very creditably. The choir gave delightful songs. While things were going on a fire hell was lieaid and some imprudent fellow gave Jie alarm. Hie wildest contusion tol owed. In an instant all started from .heir seats toward the door, and the (anger of children being trampled lown was imminent. Fattier Xattini, lowcver, raised his voice above the loiBe of the excitement and repeatedly jrdere l all to sit down. He asserted that there was no tire, and that the •ngine bell rang for some other object, and he finally succeeded in preventing > most dangerous stam[>ede. Mr. Harry Jackson, also with the some presence of mind prevented the rushing )f the singers and other folks from the {allcry. So in a litte while all was [uiet again ami the performance was satisfactorily resumed. Too much blame cannot be attached to the man who rang that bell under he circumstances, as it is probable that ilong with the wind and storm some lroiis of whisky may have caused him to mistake his reckoning. Surely it is tot his fault, if in the accident there was no loss of life or limb. Christmas Day was ushered in by the solemn peelings of the church bell ind a little after midnight a good •roid of faithful were present at hurch notwithstanding the difficulties if the howling storm. Thirty-one ■omniunicants approached the altar, rho Bethlehem crib was very taste ully put up, with statues, lights, and iving plants. A number of the latter lecorated the altar and the walls of lie church. F'ather Xattini feelingly iddrcssed the congregation and vished a Merry Christmas to them and o all our citizens. He tried that norning to drive to Ruby Hill, but by tie advice of several gentlemen he lesisted from thejattempt, as it w as not probable his team could then go hrotigh the snow drift in time before lie road should be broken. He will mt off his trip abroad, and attend at duby Hill to-morrow morning. THE NTURM, the llmtlrit Ever Known In Tills Srrtlou. The snow which fell last week was ollowed on Saturday with a tremend jus heavy gale of wind. On Sunday i big snowstorm set in, when the vind drifting the crystal flakes into jig piles, travel became greatly im jeded. Violent gusts of wind, snow md sleet plaved turn about with only ilight intermissions of fair weather luring the whole week. An occasional jut momentary gleam of sunshine oc curred during the days, and a tew glimmering stars blinked in the firma :nt at sin rt intervals during the lights, hut heavy clouds prevailed ind soon hid them out of sight. A :haw commenced on Christmas Eve tnd continued over the great festival, (now ing occasionally in the meantime, rhe amount of snow fallen duringthe storm must have averaged two feet >n the level. The mountains are full jf it and ti e canyon roads were al most impassable for any kind of ve hicle. Ore hauling and teaming generally was temporarily stopped, travel lias been generally impeded tnd the mails by buckboard were de layed three or four trips several hours cacli time during the storm. Down the railroad but little difficulty oc curred and the trains have come in very close on time- The White I’ine mails have been greatly delayed at both ends, notwithstanding that the Mattos Brothers have used every means iiossible to push along on time, the snow having fallen much heavier in that county than in this, and drifted on the summits of the mountains to an unusual depth, The storm lias con tinued mi to this date for seven days, and lias been the geatest ever known in this section. On Wednesday evening “Doc” Holmes, who is driving for Mattos Brothers at this end of the line, came in town and re|)orted that the snow was seven feet on the level at Hamilton, and Messrs. Mathewson Bros, had to tunnel under tt to get in and out of their store. It lies about two feet on the flats between the Eighteen-mile house and here. The ranchers and cattlemen feel greatly encouraged over the pros|>ect of plenty of water and an abundance of feed next Summer. Depnrlure of Old UfitldenlR. On Monday next A. P. Gallwey, manager of the Kuby-Dunderberg Mining Company, accompanied by his wife and baby, will leave hero lor England. They will be accompanied as far as I’alisade by the lady’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. William I’ardy, and her sister Mainl, who will go to San Fran cisco and make that place their future residence. Mr. Gallwey has talked for a long time past of going to South Africa, and after visiting his friends in England, if the outlook is propitious, he will start for the Cajie. The young couple will be missed in Eureka soci ety. Mrs. Uaftwey has been a great favorite among us since she was a •mall child, and Mr. Gallwey has made many friends here during a residence of three years or more. Mr. and Mrs. Partly having resided in White Pine anil this county for twenty years or more, their departure may be likened to the tearing up of one of the old monarchs of the forest, ami the de partuie oi this family will be regretted by their friends. We trust to hear good tidings of them in the new fields to which tliey are separately destined. A farewell banquet was tendered to Mr. Gallwey last evening by the mem bers of Beatific Lodge, K. of 1\, of which he is the District Deputy Grand Chancellor, and in eloquent speeches made by several of the members pres ent, the regrets of the I<odge over his departure were freely expressed. Two Broken Thlgli*. Thornes Tyrrell, a teamster, went into his stable at Marysville holding in his arms the little child of Mrs. Weirs, and was kicked by a horse [with such force that his thigh was broken. He fell on tlie child, who also had its thigh broken by his weight. I tt II III. riVK III!

We have already heaid one Steptoe Valley rancher cry out: “ Hold enough!" He had reference to a fur ther prolongation of the glorious storm he had been praying for for two years. It is said that five feet of snow fell in Hamilton the first three days of the present week. Tho roads between here and there are in very bail condi tion and travel will for some lime be hard and tedious.

A1 Hageraan is prospecting and living in hopes of getting rich. He has good chances ahead of him and is very much en couraged with a vein of lead ore in sight in the Ida May mine. He is Bnishing his assessment work lor this year. Joe Molino is doing assess ment work on the May lode. Johnny McNaughton and the Laird brothers are taking considerable heavy lead ore from the Bullwbacker mine, which they are shipping to Salt Lake. They are making good wages. Nnowaltde. Last Tuesday morning Frank Rogers and John Ivy, of Ruby Hill, were cross ing the canyon next south of the Lord Byron mine, on their way home from the Diamond mine, where they had been working on the night shift, when the snow broke away for several acres be neath them and slid roaring down the aide of the mountain. The men were fortunately a foot or two above the break, which they started, and got off with no other lujury than a loss of breath. Said Johnny Ivy: “I never saw a snowslide before, and 1 never want to see another.” r. * A. N. Installation. Last Saturday evening, after the newly elected officers of Eureka Lodge No. 16, F. & A.
