THE IRwINs.-The Irwin Theatrical Troupe
left this City on Sunday, for Idaho City. Mr.. and
Mrs. Irwin were we'll liked here by those who
appreciate dramatic talent. They are indeed
very clever performers and this is not our opn-
ion alone, but it is the opinion of most of those
who had the pleasure of witnessing their en-
tertainments during their stay here Mrs Ir-
win won the greatest share of applause, as she
seemed perfectly at home in the various dlinea-
tions of character rendered. Whether she per-
sonated the boy from the Emerald Isle, the
Scottish girl, the French, German, or.the maid
en- from the happy land of pumpkin pies and
wooden nutmegs, her parts were we'll played
and life like. She appeared rather the best,
we thought, in personatag the Irish character,
and the erich Irish brogue' she is master of is
little above perfection. Her German accent"
is also said to be very good, but we did not see
her attempt the German character. In singing
and dancing she is better than average and up
on the whole is an accomplished actress. Mrs
Hayne will have to look to her laurels in Ida
no or Mrs. Irwin will eclipse her. Mr.. Irwin
is good general actor and gentleman withal
The troupe, as whole, is good one, and nc
doubt will receive liberal patronage in the
Basin.

HORSE THIEvEs.-The Idaho Statesman of a
late date, has the following in relation to the
on Payette and Burnt rivers
'Cattle and Horse thieves have lately been
exercising their vocation along Burnt river
We heard of one entire pack-tran being stolen,
and part of another. They had probably not
heard of the vigorous manner in which their
kind was getting cleaned out along the road to-
wards Umatilla'
1.-THE Payette and Burnt river horse thieves
are said to keep in their camps complete In
dian outfit consisting of moccasins, skins,
scalps, implements of warfare, etc, which they
put to use in different ways. For instance:
when they borrow part of pack-train they
take good care to leave behind them numerous
mOccasin tracks, which will then show that the
Indians made the raid on the stock. Great
many ways to steal horse"

The Idaho Statesman says that Alex. Stew
art, one Of the persons who emigrated from Pay

dollars damages The Statesman says it is an
attempt to ape the prosecutions of last winter at
Salt Lake City

the audience appeared well satisfied with the

vantage in argument and logic. This is SIM

MUDpIEp.-The San Francisco Spectator, a
newly established daily paper, evinces an abun-
dance of ignornace when speaking of affairs
northward from that city. In its issue of May

the following paragraphs taken therefrom plain
ly show:
"The Faltsr theatrical troupe are at Walla

''The Congressional canvass in Oregon is ex-
citing some interest"

Congress in Oregon

San Francisco, May l3.-It has recently come
to the knowledge ofthe committee appointed to
supervise the collection of money for testmo-
nial to Mrs. Lincoln, that irresponsible parties
have taken advantage of the liberal state of the
public mind by collecting subscriptions under
the pretenSe that they were fully authorized to
do so. Several hundred dollars have probably
been obtained in this name: from stores and
residences, not one dollar of which has been
paid over to the committee. No one is author
lied to make collections for this purpose unless
they can show printed authorization from the
committee and can furnish lithograph receipt
which has been gotten up by the committee for
that express purpose.
