THE EVENING NEWS.

49, 1865 -,
bed on the street in Silver of 200 inis
is getting "brave,r when q man is
stopped in the street and ordered 70
upass in his checks" We wonder what
viii he the next move? To overpower q
man, tie his hands, and deliberately cut
his throat, is one move. Meet a man IN
the centre Of o town, and quietly poke
a n;stol in his ear, and then take all he
has ia another. If Jack Ketch comes
ovs, the mountains and holds a special
session of Court, the roughs have no one
lint themselves to blame, as their con-
duct is such as is calculated to force
the "old man to take some active
measures to stop, the present system of
wholesale murder and robbery that has
lately been going on. Judge Hayden,
Of Dayton, is absent at this time, hav-
ing gone to California, and the prospects
are that in the absence Of Judge Hay
don, Judge Lynch will hold a short
term, but a decisive one. There have
been several parties recently arrested
who have grave charges preferred
against them. We hope whatever may
be right and just will be done, let it be
what it may. But one thing is certain,
we do sincerely hope q stop will be put
to the present cut-throat operations.
NEW woRKs.-wew were DOWN. Crown
Point ~ravine, yesterday afternoon, look
ing for something new, and found it, in
the shape Of IL new dump at the mouth
the old tunnel Of the Yellow Jacket
mine. Although it has been erected
but a day or two, it is we'll filled with
surface ore Of very good quality. All
the old deserted works will be brought
into use. This summer, many mines
that have lain idle for years will be
started up again, and the coming season
will, in the opinion of the best judges,
be one of the liyeliest seen in Nevada
since 1868. Quite a number OF tue
mines in American Flat District will be
worked upon. The Segregated Beleher
will soon start up again. Times now
would be very lively if the condition OF
the roads Was such as to admit Of the
ore being hauled away, and of starting
work where parties intend TO commence
ODeEALlOuS rs sOOh 90 hANf "S
that the storms are over.
HARD ROAD TO TRAvEL.- Since the
FIRST discovery of the Comstock ledge,
the SHOWS on the Sierra Nevadas have
never presented so serious an impede
ment to travelling the regular stage roads
as during the present season. The
greatest difficulty has, however, been
in the frequent blocking up of the rail-
road between Cisco and Alta, and the
troubles in that respect are not ended
vet, as Il would seem from the following
telegram from D. II. Gray to Billy Gran
dali, Stage Agent in Virginia, dated at
Cisco, April Il, lilo P. NJ: "Snow pillow
only got half Il mile below Cisco at noon
to-day. Plow now broke; don't know
when passengers will get down. The
passengers referred TO left Virginia on
Thursday morning.
OPERA HousE.-The attendance at the
Opera House last evening was very
large for Friday evening. The play of
"The Female Gambler" was well
produced and well received. But the
farce entitled estate Secrets" was
PLAYED TO perfection. Mr.. Stone took
the leading character and did it full JUS
tice. He is chief in the farce tonight.
There will be three pieces, all good, and
that they will be put on In good shape
is a settled fact. In the play last night
of "The Female Gambler the principal
male character was taken by Mr.. Mel
vile. Il was the first opportunity he
has had Of showing himself, and his act
ing was a credit to him. Go tonight
and see the extra good bill.
BArHISG.-" Cleanliness is next to
g~odliuess." We guess that's so. Have
known it to be a practice among some
people, and have thought it might be
beneficial to many who are not in the
habit of cleaning up only once ina year.
Our attention was directed this morning
to the splendid Bath house of DR.. May
er, Gold Hill, who has just ~overhauled
his Bath house, and introduced new i'm
provements, pleasant to the eye, sweet
to the smell, and healthy to the feeling.
New water-pipes, new towels, whole
some soaps, tesh-brushes, warm and
cold spring water, ETC., are some OF ms
improvements. A good warm bath Is
healthy at this time of year.
THROWN FROM HIS SEAr.-This morn
ing, while a teamster was passing down
B street, nearly opposite the Savage
Works, the wagon dropped into a deep
chuck-hole, causing such a lurch that
the man was thrown from the seat to
the ground with great force. Untor-
tunstely, he struck about the only place
on the street where there was no mud,
and his head came in contact with a
stone. Our informant said "his head
was cut some, and an awful big lump
raised on it; but he broke the stone"
SUNSHINE. - This morning the sun
shines out warm and pleasant, making
the remainder Of the snow disappear
very rapidly, and as a natural result there
are small rivers in every gulch and can
on. The roads are again very muddy,
but the mud is not so deep as during
the last storm. In many places, how
ever, where the mud had not dried up,
the roads with the addition of the water
and mud from the recent storm have De-
come almost impossible.
OK H DIvIpE.-0n yesterday even
ing, at G o'clock, We went from Gold
Hill to Virginia, the road from the top
of the hill to the Ashland House was
completely lined with wagons, most OF
which were either broken down or stuck
fast in the mud. In some instances, the
teamsters had given up in dispsir, n
taken their animals to the stable.
