OPERA HOUSE, NzLoDHoS.-The great
and highly laughable burlesque of"Ms-
zeppa" was the principal feature Of at
traction last evening at the Opera
House, with Miss Ella LaRue as the
noble Tartar youth who fell among the
Philistines, lost his clothes and got
packed off on a Chinaman's Jackass.
Miss LaRuo carried her part through
admirably, although, owing to her OBJ
stinatc cold, she was in rather poor
voice. She certainly displayed ravish-
ing "shapc" enough to crafty the eyes
of the most greedy in that respect.
"Count Coleslaugh" was muchly over
done or overcome tho rest Of the char
acters we're fairly rendered, especially
the steed. This decidedly gay piece
will be repeated tonight with improve
men,s. The othur portions Of the en-
%tertaiument, consisting Of music, song,
dance, character acts, ETC., cannot be
excelled. See distributed programmes.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT 1T WAsHoE.-A
little daughter of Asa Pearsons, at
washoe, aged about seven years, was
instantly killed on Sunday afternoon by
the accidental discharge Of II gun play
fully snapped at her head by her little
brother, who did not know that the gun
was loaded. The whole charge Of shot
took effec. in the child's head, tearing
off the top Of the skull from the fore
head to the back of the neck, and spat-
terinc the room with blood and brains.
A loaded gun is a very poor plaything
for children to be entrusted with.
