the popular place Of resort for a large
class Of our community. The pro-

and pleasing features aud novelties, and
fresh accessions are constantly being
made to the already very excellent, tai
ented aud versatile company. Miss
Clara, the latest accession, is already
an established favorite and in n few
days Miss Ella Larue will make her APP
pesrance under M engagement. Piper
is doing the very best he can 10 cater to
the music and fun.loying tastes OF the
community, and we are pleased to notice
that he is successful. He found it very
difficult at first starting to get n good
company together, but he went after
them, and made out far better than
could have been expected under the
circumstances. He is now all right,
and keeps changing for the better when-
ever he can. The programme Tor To-
night is a capital one, embracing new
songs, new Jokes, new acts and general
deliuentions. It concludes with the
mirth.provoking, side.splitting local

HEARD FRoN.-Many persons in Vir-
giuia City and Gold Hill will doubtless
remember little Doctor Sharkey, who
had an apothccary shop on c street, be
You'd the Medin Building, in 1924.
For q couple of years after that period,
the Doctor +" run down in the heel ter
.ribly, aud suddenly disappeared. But
he has been heard from lately, Nike
McCluskey, Of Gold Hill, yesterday re-
ceiying a letter from him dated nj II mil
itary camp in Arizona, where Doctor
Sharkey is no less n parsonage than a
usSurgeou in the United States Army =
The Doctor seems to be doing well, for
he writes to Mike McCluskey rs follows
"Mike, there is no whisky in this camp
except what belongs to the patients,
and snre you wouldn't think that |
would drink any Of thot. He also says:
al was four months coming from San
Francisco to this camp-but was uu-
der wage all the time" which accounts
for the long and pleasant journey, per-
haps. Doc. Sharkey never could stand
prosperity, but he may have entirely re-
formed since he has arrived at n place
where there is no whiskey 90 except what
belongs to the paticnts"-unlcss he con-
siders himself one Of ;hem.
