tfBeeltlj) Sentinel, PCBLISHBD EVERY SATCBPAY BY E. A. SKILLMAN. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1900. Lincoln county enjoys the distinc tion of being the only coonty in the State to elect a lady to office at the last election, Annie B. Clinton having defeated her opponent for Superintendent of Schools by a big majority._ A match was arranged in New York on Wednesday between James Jeffries and Tom Sharkey, the win ner to take the entire parse. The battle will take place before the Club offering the largest parse, and if it comes off in Nevada, will be to a finish. The offioial oount of the vote io San Bernardino, oounty. Cal., showed that in a total of 6,728 ballots cast for Judge of the Superior Court, Bledsoe, (Dem.) and Bennett, (Rep.) had each received 2,864. As the result was a tie a special election will be held to fill the vacancy. Henry Villard, who established a reputation for himself some years ago by his management of the North ern Pacific Railroad, and has sinoe been identified with a number of other gigantio interests, died at his Summer home at Thornwood Park, New York, early last Monday morn ing of apoplexy. He was sixty-five years of age. Marcus Daly, the millionaire min ing man and politician of Montana, died in New York on Sunday last of Bright’s disease complicated with other disorders. Mr. Daly was born in Ireland, and was 58 years of age at the time of his death. In early days he worked as a miner in Nevada, going from here to Montana, where he amassed an enormous fortune. He leaves a widow, two daughters and a son. _ Ono of the results of the recent troubles in China is the unearthing of records at Peking which tell of the discovery of Amerioa by Chinese voyagers a thousand years before the advent of Christopher Columbus. These records are said to be now in the possession of Department officials and are closely guarded by them on account of their rare value. These documents, it is said, explain various discrepancies in the world's history on which the opinions of scientific men have differed since the dawn of our present civilization, and throw light upon the origin of certain evi dences of early civilization which were found in this oountry. Dr. Edward A. Rosa, after a ser vice of seven years in Stanford Uni versity of California, was forced to resign bis position this week by reason of the antagonism of Mrs. Stanford, which was aroused by cer tain positive statements made by him from the platform in discussing questions of a pnblio natnre. It is nnderstood that his speeches against corporate monopolies and Coolie labor drew down npon him the wrath of certain powerful corpora tions in California, and that these influences were bronght to bear npon Mrs. Stanford, with the resnlt that she demanded his resignation. MB. BBYAH OH TUB KESC'LT. W. J. Bryan has given ont the fol lowing statement of his views on the resnlt of the recent eleotion: “The resnlt was a surprise to me, and the magnitude of the Republi can viotory was a surprise to onr op ponents as well as to those who voted onr tioket. It is impossible to an alyze the returns until they are more complete, bnt, speaking generally, we seem to have gained in the large cit ies and to have lost in ' the smaller cities and in the oountry. “The prosperity argument was probably the most potent one nsed by the Republicans. They compared present conditions with the panio times of 1893 to 1896, and this argu ment had weight with those who did not stop to consider the reasons for the change. The appeal, ‘Stand by the President while the war is on,’ had a great deal of influence among those who did not realize that a war against a dootrine of self-govern ment in the Philippines mnst re-aot npon ns in this country. We made an honest fight npon an honest plat form, and having done onr dnty as we saw it, we have nothing to regret. “We were defeated, bnt are not discouraged. The fight mnst go on. I am sore that Republican polioies •rill be repudiated by the people •rheu the tendency of those polioiee ^ ie fully understood. The contest between plutocracy and Democracy cannot end until one or the other is i completely triumphant. “I shall continue to take an active 1 interest in politics as long as I live. 1 I believe it to be the duty of the oit- 1 izen to do so, and in addition to my interest as a citizen I believe it will require a lifetime of work to repay the political friends who have done so muoh for me. I shall not be a Senatorial candidate before the Leg islature which has been elected. Senator Allen deserves the Senator ship which goes to the Populists. Mr. Hitchcock and Mr. W- H. Thompson are avowed candidates for the Senatorship. They both deserve well of the party, and I am too grate ful to them for past support to stand in their way, even if I desired a seat in the Senate." Mr. Bryan says he has no other plans than to remain at home, where he returned from the fatiguing cam paign. He denies the report that hs would remove from Nebraska and make his home in Texas.

Compton was burned to death at her home at Peavine, Nye county, Monday night of last week, and how the affair occurred seems to be a mystery.

Upon in vestigation the bodv of Mrs. Compton was found in the ruins, with the lower limbs burned from the trunk.
