THE EVENING NEWS.
McCALL.-A long item appears in the

'A0 eSae's AAcosdLeE VI SauA Olarh
county, California, who was captured
near Fort Churchill, yesterday, by
Sheriff Adams, Of that county. It is
stated in that item that Mccall was on
the stage at the time that Chief Edwards
looked at Russell, and that the officer
failed to recognize him. Now, this is
not true, for Mccall was not on that
stage at all, and did not come until the
next day. AS the books of the Stage
Company will show, not only was this
the case, but Mccall was so much dis
guised that Sheriff Adams did not know
him when he overlook him on the road.
All that Edwards had to go by was the
description he had received from below,
and as he had disguised himself, it left
him without any description whereby
he could recognize him. Mr.. Russell,
the carrier Of the Enterprise, saw him in
Virginia and knew him, but as they had
been raised boys together, he would not
apprehend him for the So, 800 reward.
This, to the credit Of Mr.. Russell, shows
the true friend. There are but few per-
sons who would do a Mr.. Russell did.
Under the circumstances, we are salts
fed that there is no blame attached TO
Chief Edwards for not experimenting Nc
Call. Ii was his interest to do il, and
he would have done so, If for nothing
else than the money, il he could.
0rkRA Horss.-The attendance at the
Opera House, last night, on the occasion
of Max Walters benefit, was tolersbly
good, although not q house full. The
performance WAS altogether inferior to
any we have ever seen BY this troupe.
What WAS the cause Of il is most diff
cult TO tell, but it was not worthy a
troupe who have done IS well IS it has
done on other occasions. H. +. Stone,
WAS the only one who seemed to enter
into the spirit Of the character be AS
sumed. This evening there will be a
benefit TO the National Guards. or
course there will be a good house pres
emit. This will be the last appearance
Of Miss Stone, so all who want TO see
her will have to embrace this the last
opportunity. As the N%stionsl Guards
are always ready 10 lend their as
sistance TO all celebrations, and have
been to a heavy outlay for new uni
forms, come out, and give them n rous-
ing benefit.
CALICO PARTY To-NIGur.-This Tues
day evening, at Athletic Hall, Virginia
city, will be given II Calico Party-so
called heretofore, and now because Of
its plaiauess. goodness of heart, and its
honest purpose. The object Of the
PARTY tonight, are first, social and pleas
ant intercourse among friends and ac-
qusintances; TO join in the graceful and
inspiring cotillion, eulivened by music;
TO socially join in refreshments; and TO
give each lady and gentleman, so par
ticipating, an opportunity OF substan-
TALLY contributing in coin TO swell the
amount of the Southern Relief Fund,
which is rendered 20 our fellov-country-
men and women. and their children in
the South. II is expected that many
ladies and gentlemen will be present
this evening; and everything pass of
pleasantly and benehcially.
BAD RoAp.-For the past few days
number Of teams have been employed in
hauling waste ore on the road from the
junction otB aad C streets, Virginia, to
10 the Fulton Foundry. The result is
that the road is 81 the present time al
most impossible for heavy loaded teams.
Yesterday evening, while going from
Gold Hill 70 Virginia, We saw a large
wagon loaded with wood, until II wss
top heavy, coming round the corner At
Praysville House, when one wheel sunk
down into the soft rock so far the wheel
on the opposite side raised from the
ground over a foot. Several men near
by hung 70 the wagon and kept II from
capsizing while the driver lsveled it up.
As soon 80 the rock becomes packed the
road will be in good order.
KzARsARGr.-The Kearssrge Mining
company, as will be seen By a notice in
another column, to-day, has levied an
assessment Of seven dollars per share on
its capital stock, payable Immediately.
The company is about starting up the
works at the mine-and sharp time,
prompt action, is the wstchword. The
season OF the year is'now At hand when
operations must commeuce-snd If all
the stockholders will promptly cooper
ate With the Board Of Trustees. the
Kesrsarge mine will be made TO yield
fabulous wealth before the SHOWS Of next
winter whiten the hills OF the west OF
Owens Valley.
A Coop TlnE.-Lsst evening some Of
the members Of the Athletic Club, Viz
ginia, paid a visit to Gold Hill TO see
the Turn-verein Society Of this place
and give them q specimen Of their gym
n.s,ics. The Gold Hill boys said they
were good performers, and TO prove
their appreciation Of the performances
ordered several kegs Of lager. As a re-
suit, there was a Jolly time until a
late hour. As they returned home they
had several policemen in their wake,
but as sooa as II was ascertained that
there WAS no harm in the boys, they let
them slide.
TuosI BLocxs.-Duriug the Winter
all kinds OF street crossings were much
appreciated by all pedestrians. But
now, that the Winter is gone and dust
has taken the place Of mud, all kinds OF
street crossings should be removed, a,
they are . great nuisance. In front OF
the Union Market, Virginia, there 10 a
row of blocks set across c street, that
should now be removed. We have been
requested BY a number Of persons to
mako mention of it, as they say the 9th
or papers do no,-slthough it is at
homo.
