best bill ever offered to the public il
this part Of creation. A host of regu'
lars will take part in the entertainment
and among the volunteers Miss Amanda
Lee will appear in character as I" Old
Mother Wacklcsby' in her famous stump
speech /; the stumpest of all stump
speeches, pregnant with sound logic,
wit, and local hits Of u terrific nature,
Maggie Brewer will ease her mind and
tickle the audience with "Cross Read

ton. Little Nell, of Gold Hill, will sing
"Chaff and Wink your Eye" recite

imitable song and dance of "Topsy..

Messrs. Kimball and Mann will perform
the terrible Niagara Leap from the

sides which there will be any amount OF
other things done, the whole ending
with II beautiful spectacular shape
entitled "The S~culptor's Studio in
which Miss Nellie Vining and other
shspely artists will be seen in unadorned
beauty. In consequence of the great
length o: the bill, the audience had bet

INGENIOUS wAsuoE INVENTION. At
warreu's wagon shop, on the Divide,
can be seen in operation a machine
invented by Mr.. Warren, which, for
simplicity, effectiveness and general in
g~cnuity and utility, we have seldom
seen equa!led. II is combination OF
machines, so TO speak, and like the old
womau's d~ish-ket,le, can be used for a
variety Of purposes. 1t is simply a
heavy cog-whecl worked by q treadie
operating on u smaller cog-wheel, thus
turning an auger set in q frame, after
the style Of a turning-lathe, causing it
to revolve with great rapidity. The
felloe of a wagon wheel is placed upon q
small! sliding frame, which being showed
up to the auger, the spoke and dowel-
holes are bored with great rapidity and
precision. The socket holding the anger
will hold with equal facility any other
size, and u hollow auger being fitted to
it, the felloe lemons on the ends OF the
spokes are readily and correctly madea at
shor. notice. The sliding frame is easily
lowered or raised, therefore is readily
adjusted to all kinds of boring except
that to which one is so often subjected
from the human race. This frame be-
ing removed, and the proper head andtail
pieces set in the main frame-which can
be done in u minutes time-the concern
becomes one Of the neatest little turn
ing lathes imaginable. 1t can be
changed with equal facility into a saw
mill, and for aught we could see, into a
coffee mill, grist mill, quartz mill, or
threshing machine, in fact almost any
thing except a whisky mill. Mr.. War
rem has applied for a patent, and he
we'll deserves one for his ingenuity.
That little machine can't be beat.
VIRGINIA CRY INpEprEpSEss.-At the
regular meeting of the Virginia Board
of Aldermen held last evening the fol-
lowing preamble and resolutions were
adopted "Whereas, By the provisions
of an Act of the Legislature Of the State
of Nevada entitled An Act to provide
for the payment Of the outstanding in.
d~ebtedness of Virginia, Storey county,
approved January 81, 1865, the Treasu-
rer of Virginia, Storey county, is pro-
hibited from paying any Indebtedness
due from said city incurred prior to the
passage of said Act and whereas, by
resolution of this Board passed January
10, A. d. 1867, it was agreed that Louis
Feusier i Co. should be paid tho sum OF
Sl,sO0 out of the General Fund as q
compromise of the judgment before that
time recovered against the city upon u
debt incurred prior TO the passage OF
said Act. which said agreement this
Board cannot comply with on account
of the provisions of the said law; there
fore, Resolved, That the said resolution
be and the same is hereby repealed.
Resolved, That Messrs. Feusier 4 Co.
be notified of this action Of the Board
by the City Clerk.
PLEASANT HoNEs.-One of the certain
evidences of n natural, Christian civili-
cation is the abundance of beautiful
homes. Neat houses and we'll kept
gardens most forcibly tell US Of the re-
fnement and good taste Of their owners.
The characters of men and women are
moulded by the circumstances that sur
round them while young If the earli-
est impressions are Of things neat or
beautiful ; if the first impressions upon
the elastic mind Of childhood are made
by those things that indicate enlighten-
ment, an influence for good, greater
than all others, Is exerted. Those who
may be born in the squalid dens Of pow
erty bear upon them the impress Of their
early surroundings, although they may
have been favored by fortune and be-
come eminent for some Of the marked
characteristics of their minds.
DAYTON THEATER.-The Sue Robinson
Getzler troupe will give a performance
at the Dayton Theater this evening, and
will undoubtedly draw a large house,
as the programme is a splendid one.
They performed at the Gold Hill Theater
last night, to q good house, and pleased
the audience very highly. People who
failed to attend missed n of the best
entertainments ever given at our local
thcater. We hope the D~aytonites will
give the troupe a big house tonight.
THE REASON WEY. Johnny Tuers
says the reason why he has not danced
in the walk around" for the last few
evenings is because his left hand is sore,
and one of his big shoes is sprained 10
the small Of the back, and be is nightly
afraid the erysipelas will get into 1t
He and Charley Rhoades and Foster
will be seen doing something at the
Opera House this evening, however
Everybody goes.
A FizzLE.-The weather looked de-
