Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1866-03-15

Of Virginia this morning that County
Commissioner Grim is going to resign his
Office. l, would have been better for Sto-
rev county if he had never been appointed
10 the Office. The taxpayers would GER
tainly not now be swindled out Of two
thousand dollars every month for feeding
and physicing less than a dozen persons
IN the County Hospital. This one trans
action alone has id Mr.. Grim's reputa-
ton as a public officer, and. in our opin-
ion, the sooner he vacates his seat in the
County Board the better for him and the
county. By all means let him resign. Al
the time Knox resigned, Grim's friends
put him forth as the Moses who was to
save the people from knoX's wood-hunt-
ing propensities and thefts. But, alas, for
human expectations. This modern Mo-
Ses, under the advice and in the partner
ship Of George F. Jones, was even worse
than a wood-huuter. for he was the man,
above all Others, who inflicted the County
Hospital p~oultice upon the hard-earned
taxes of Storey.
ERrS.-"St. Pa,rick's Day in the morn
= ing promises to be specially lively in
Virginia City and Gold Hill. By refer
cnce to the programme, printed in another
column, il will be seen that there is to be
Il long procession; services, religious and
civiI-sermon, poem, oration; and when
the day is done, there is strong probability
OF independent and promiscuous celebra-
,ions, for the inspiriting Of the whole
n Don't forget the ball, which
takes place-mind the niSht-on St. Pat
rick's Eve, o. Armory Hall. We have
been challenged 10 be present, and q
par, in a quadrille; but il business will
admit of our being on hand, nothing short
Of a Jig, Money Musk or a Highland reel,
will satisfy OUT fantastic toe. No sham,
on ST. Pa,rick's Day, on n thing: our
intention to drink to the Shamrock in =
glass Of champagne.
MrsIc HALL still continues 10 draw full
houses. Indeed. it could not be other
wise, with such incentives to a hearty
laugh. Mrs. Harry Wall, as the Goddess
Of Liberty, sang a beautiful National Bal
lad, composed BY Mr.. Harry Wall. Her
graceful appearance was very suggestive
Of q well known engraving issued not
long since. with Puck that funny
San Francisco pictorial. The lauShable
drama Of - Lize,te's Marriage" closed the
programme, in which Mrs. Annie Yea
mans p~ersonated the fond "lovyer" TO
perfection. So long as Max. Walter will
persis, in retaining such splendid talent,
the public will not stay away.

day nigh, Max Walter will give m enter
,ainmen, at the Opera House. The ladies

Recorders office removed TO the room now
occupied BY the Sheriff. The third story
of the building. which is occupied By the
Odd Fellows. is paying a rent OF one hun.
dred dollars per month. This is the kind
or anonopr ,hc mamie like 10 see.

Fortunately the wagon was stopped in
time before running on the animals. No
serious damage, but a " big scare"
