PIPER8 OPERA dOU6E.--1no usual
crowded audience attended ut tho Opera
House last evening, on the occasion Of
"ladies' night" Tho parquotte was
crowded full Of tho lords Of creation,
whilo the dress-circle was gay with the
bright smiles and pretty dresses Of the
ladies'. Tho plays selected for tho even
ing were tho very pleasing petite COM
edy Of kill or Cure and tho laughable
pastoral farce Of "Nature and Philoso-
ply" both of which were rendered in a
very effective style, highly creditable to
all who took part therein. As Mrs.
Brown, in the first piece, Suc Robinson
was very effective, as was also her
brother, Billy Robinson, In his enact
ment Of Mr.. Smith. In tho concluding
farce, Miss Robinson personated "Col-
in" the pastoral and rofreshingly inno-
cent eighteen year old youth, who is
supposed to have nevor seen a woman
The sympathies of tho entire audience
werc with Colin throughout the piece,
and most heartily 80 whom no Mt length
found and Immediately fell in love with
and so r%ayishingly kissed and Rugged
the pretty Eliza amanda Leg. The
Gertrude of Fanny Hanks was dono up
in q particularly effective style; it could
not have been surpassed. The double
clog dance of Miss Josephine and Jimmy
Murphy was perfection in its line. They
are the best on tho coast. Tho other
interlude acts and dclineations werc
very good indeed, and were much ap-
plaudcd. Read the choice programme
for tonight.
DARING AND SUCCESSFUL RoBBERy.-J.
B. Lynds, q tcamster, driving for Van
Sickle, arrived between six and seven
O'Clock, last evening, at tho Piute Hotel,
lower Gold Hill, with q load Of hay from
Van Sickle's ranch, the other side Of
Genoa. He stopped his wagon in front
of the hotol and took his team to the
stable, near by. Returning to tho
wagon for q roll of blankets which he
had on top of the load when hc arrived,
he discovered that some n had taken
them, although he had not been absent
half nm hour. Within tho bundle was =
purse containing S435 in gold coin, be-
longing to the teamster, which ho was
going to forward to a brother in the
States. he Immediately notified Mar
shall Cummings, who together with Con-
stable Higgins and another officer, went
at once to the Pluto hotel and did their
bcst to get on track of tho stolen pro-
perty, but without success. That thiof
doubtless mado a far bottor haul than
he had anticipated. Tho loss is o very
serious ono to Mr.. Lynds, who can lily
afford to part with his hard earnings in
that way.
HOMEOPATHY OUrDoNE.-A gentle
man residing in Gold Hill, went to a
drug store, on Main street, this morn
ing, to got some medicines for q sick
man. The druggist attended to the
prescriptions, labelling each package
carefully, as usual. One little box was
marked thus: "Dose two - taken
three time, Il day." but on opening it
to administer to the sick man, nothing
was inside. It was empty. Homoeo-
pathically considered, this "a not so
bad q joke, although evidently q harm
less little blunder on tho part Of the
druggist, which was soon rectiied. AZ
tor all, perhaps 1t were better for tho
patient that It never had been rectified.

Dayton, called on us this morning md
reports all quiet on the Carson at that
point. All the mills near Dayton arc
