P,pER's OPERA HoUsE.-The Opera
House was again we'll filed last evening
with a fashionable and appreciative au-
dieuce, to see the fine play Of Sam"
repeated. There is but little opportu-
nity given in this piece for any great
dramatic hits to be made BY the actors
outside Of the principal characters.
Wheatleigh's "Sam" cauno be ex.
celled, aud Willie Edouin's most capital
gymnastic and acrobatic drlineation OF
"Dick," is n Of the principal features
Of the piece; indeed, We honestly be-
lieye that more in the audience of last
evening came to see Willie Edouin than
there were that came to see Wheatleigh.
Miss Sue Robinson's p~ersonntion OF
Laura Roslyn was, as usual with all the
renditions Of that excellent actress and
estimable lady, finished, pleasing and
good. sour American Cousin will
be put upon the stage this evening, with
a strong cast Of characters. Secure
seats early. No extra charge for re-
served seats.
ARNIrAGE BRYARLy.-This unfortu-
nate miner, whose spine was d~islocated
or otherwise very severely injured by
being thrown from the omnibus at the
time it upset near Piper's Opera House,
on the evening Of July LIST, is now lying
in a very critical condition, and Dr.. G,
C. Green informs US that he will prob
ably die very soon. DR.. Cleburne is
the surgeon in the case, and has done
all that his surgical skill could dictate,
to save the patient and restore anima-
ton to his paralyzed limbs. Some SEN
sation did return to them, and he was
as late as last Thursday able to move
some of the muscles of his limbs, but
since then he has been failing more or
less rapidly. Dieting, confinement and
medical treatment have reduced him
almost to q skeleton. From such an
injury as his, even the most robust men
rarely ecoyer. We know of but two
instances of such recovery in this COM
munity.
THAT RAILROAD CoLLIsIoN.-The col
lision between a freight and construction
train, day before yesterday, on the rail-
road near Bonner Lake, proves not
so fatal and serious an affair MS was Mt
first reported. Several persons were
somewhat scratched and bruised, but
fortunately no one was killed or had
bones broken. The evening passenger
train for Reno was delayed some hours
until o temporary track could DO n
structed around the collided trains.
BUsrLrSG.-Gold Hill has worn an
unusually busy appearance during the
last two days. Main street is crowded
with team, and vehicles Of all kinds
passing to and fro. and people rush
about as though they meant business
Gold Hill is about as lively a town us
there is on the coast ut the present
time. We've got the mines to do it on
"That's what's the matter"
SAN F~RAycIsco REsrAuRAST.-At the
above popular Gold Hill institution, on
Main street, just below the News office,
the best Of board, aud promiscnous eat
ing and drinking can be found by those
really DESTROYS of the best kind Of a
| place to board at, and on the most rea'
sonable terms. Ed. Schafer tries his
best 10 please all who %patronize his es'
Enlistment, and be certainly does sue
coed most admirably.
"OuR AMERICAN CousIS.'--The abov,
entitled drama was the one which wa:
being enacted on the stage in the theatei
at Washington at the time Prcsiden,
Lincoln was assassinnted. II will be
enacted ut Piper's Opera House to
night-,he play, but we trust not aay
assassination.
VIRGINIA RAcEs.-A meeting Of tho
members Of the Virginia Jockey Clut
will be held this evening at Oliu's sta
BILE, to make arrangements for thu
races which are to begin on Thursday
September 18th.
PRoGREssING.-The stone basement
foundation of the new Catholic Church
at Virginia, being pretty much com
pleted, the laying Of brick walls Of thu
building above it was commenced yes
terday.
ExTINGUIsHER AGESr.-We are graft
fed to learn that Charley Brooks, o
Virginia, whom everybody knows rs III,
right sort of a man, has been appointr,
by Mr.. Levey a local agent for tn
wonderful patent fire e%xtinguisher.
SALuBRIous.-The weather continue
to be almost as 6ne and pleasant a
could be desired, neither too desperate
" bot, nor very uncomfortably cool
lust about right. Rather hot in tn
middle Of the day perhaps, but gloriou
nights for sleeping.
Personal. - Rev. Mr.. Talbot, til
new Rector of St. Johns Episcop'
Church in Gold Hill, arrived this morr
ing. We suppose he will commenc
his good labors in this neglected S'n'
yard of the Lord on next Sabbath.
