Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1867-04-22
THE EVENING NEWS.
To rue GoLp Hut FIaEMES.-we are

candidate Tor the position OF Chief OF
the Gold Hill Fire Department. Liberty
No. l being the oldest company, is, in
his opinion, entitled to the first Chief,
which is very proper. While Mr.. Dech-
er resigns his claims as a candidate to
the position Of Chief Engineer, in favor
Of Mr.. Lee, his company consider he
should have the unanimous support for
First Assistant, which he is a candidate
for. This is also right. Let there be
good feeling existing in our fire depart
ment. Liberty No. l was the first COM
pany organized, and saved the town
from the %devouring element on several
occasions and it is but right it should
be honored with the FIRST Chief Engi-
neer, especially when it is Bill Lee who
is the aspirant.
Coon MASNERs.-There is no position
in life but what a man may show good
breeding. Nor is there any kind Of a
public meeting or gathering, where a
man should not show good manners
When men 60 to = place like a theatre,
and conclude to amuse themselves by
talking so loud as 10 disturb others, we
call it u violation Of good manners. II
you must talk, 60 to the bar-room or 10
the street, and not annoy others by at
tempting to make yourselves conspicu-
Gus by chattering like So many parrots.
We give no names, but give a strong
hint where it belongs and hope the par
ties will take il, as it would prove q
great benefit to the public and a credit
to themselves.
BouSD FOR THE lSrERIoR.-This morn
ing two Fast Freight wagons, loaded
with freight and passengers, left Vir-
GINA city for Austin and Silver Bend.
All the stages and Fast Freight wagons
90 loaded with people bound for the
new mines, most Of whom arrive from
California, and are on the lookout for q
.'big thing" Most of our old Nevada
miners have seen enough Of the "ele-
plant" and are willing to stay where
they are, and let well enough alone,
having followed bright phantoms long
enough. We do not wish TO discourage
prospec,ors, but simply hint that all
who 90 after = 'big thing" will not
find il. \ few may.
OPERA HousE.-There was a good at
tendance 1t the Opera House on Satur-
day and Sunday evenings. The per-
formsnce last evening WAS much better
than that of Saturday evening. Al
though the audience WAS no. so large,
some of the actors should either show a
little more force in their acting or else
take less prominent positions. This
evening there will be an attractive bill
out and a good performance. Now that
the roads are good and the nights light,
let everybody take advantage OF It, and
see some OF the excellent entertainments
being given nightly a, the Opera House.
SxALL-Pox.-There are quite a num-
Der of cases Of smallpox in Virginia
city and a few in Gold Hill although it
is very light in every instance, not
amounting to more than the yarlolold.
As fast as persons show signs of the
disease they are promptly removed TO
the p~est-house, where they are properly
attended 10. There were one or two
cases among the Indians, when the re-
mainder of the Piute population got
up and busted" for the lower sink OF
the Carson, no doubt carrying the dis
ease with them.
NEW BURSER.-A new style Of gas
burner may be seen in the saloon OF
DOYLE L Goodman, Virginia. Instead
of one large flame, there are tour small
ones, and in the center of them Is a
glass globe, which reflects the blaze,
making it almost equal 20 eight burners.
With this new burner the same amount
of light is supplied with half the gas
that is consumed BY the old style. In
addition to this saving, the new burner
makes a beautiful ornament TO a bar
room.
CsIrr EpwARDs.-It will be seen that
Chief Edwards is a candidate for re-elec-
ton 10 the position of Chief of Police Of
VIRGINIA. Edwards has made a good
Chief for the past year, and has many
warm friends. II will be n free hgnt,
and may the best man win, is what we
hope to see.
DusrY.-The roads all over the u
try are becoming quite dusty even Z
street is quite so in many places. TINS

leyeling down the ridges n hliing up
the deep ruts. As soon as this is done
we NAV once more boast of good roads.
BuLLIox.-The effects Of the good
