BENEFIT OF CHARLES WHGArLEiGu.-
As will be seen by an advertisement in
another column, the great comedian,
Mr.. Charles Whea,leigh, takes a benefit
Mt Pipers' Opera House this evening, on
which occasion the celebrated two act
comedy entitled "a Bull in II China
shop" and the comic drama Of "Tho
Debutaute, or the First Night, will be
presented, in both Of which Mr.. Wheat
leigh is cast as the leading characters
& B~agshott" and I" Achiile Talma Du-
faud." Although his stay among us
has been but short, Mr.. Wheatleigh has
already q small army Of aPpreeiative
friends, u goodly array OF whom will be
present this evening at his benefit. If
we rate Mr.. Wheatleigh's powers cor
rectly, he will develop u new phase in
his style of acting tonight which will
be more Of himself, and perhaps please
better than his presentations heretofore.
We shall see. Those who have not al
ready secured their seats had better do
so at once, or be on hand early, for
there is sure to be a rush tonight.
A GoLp Hill THIEr.-This morning,
Mr.. A. Rothschild, who keeps clothing
store on Main street, opposite the NEWS
office, went to Wells, Fargo L Co.'S, II
few doors above, to get u letter, leaving
his store unattended. He was absent
but n moment or so, but as soon as no
returned he missed n vest which was
laid on top Of 3 pile Of those articles.
He stepped to the door aud looking
down street he saw n Mexican hurrying
of and acting rather suspiciously. he
started after him, when the fellow i'm
medjately broke into a run and passed
towards the vesey House, where he was
lost sight of. Constable Higgins being
near ~ also started in pursuit, on being
notified, but somehow the cute rogue
managed to elude hi, pursuers and effect
his escape. They have some pretty
smart thieves up in Virginia, but we
have one or two down here also: Look
out for them.
SEVERE MINING AccIDESr.-About IL
A. NJ. to-day, Charley Lynch, a miner,
was very severely injured in the south
shaft of the Yellow Jacket mine. He
was working at the 7oO-footlevel, clear
ing out the stump at the bottom Of the
shaft, when by some mismanagement or
misunderstanding the cage was lowered
upon him, crushing him down to the
bottom upon which he stood. He was
soon e~xtricated from his fearful position,
and on examination was found to be ter
ribly strained and bruised, although no
bones were broken. DR.. CASTOR is ut
tending upon the unfortunate miner.
Surely somebody must be to blame in
such cases. II is not many weeks ago
tina, we recorded II similar case ia the
Savage mine. That victim, however,
died. Who is responsible for such nc-
cidents, anybody? If not, then our
miners take more legitimate chances on
their lives than they are aware OF.
PrpEns' OPERA Housx-" The octo-
room" was repeated for the third and
las. time, last evening. It vas per-
formed by Mr.. whcatleigh and his tall
ented company in their usual effective
manner. There was one notable and
accidental change in it, however, well
worthy of mention. Miss Hinckley be-
ING unwell, Miss Fanny Hanks persona
Ted the character Of "Zoe " the 0cto-
room. The part was not placed u'her
hand, until six o'clock in the afternoon,
vet Notwithstanding thevery short space
of time given her for study, she rem
dered the character most excellently,
without missing a line. If she cant
play "Dido" she car play Zoe" a
style of character better suited to her
taste and ability.
