PlPER's OPERA House." Our Amer
lean Cousin" was the dramatic attrac-
ton presented at the Opera House last
evening. A very fair audience was
present, and the piece passed of
smoothly and we'll, with the exception
Of some little dragging occasionally,
aud the services of the prompter being
called into requisition in one or two in
stances. Mr.. Wheatleigh's p]ersountion
Of Asa Treuchard was u most excellent
one not exaggerated or overdrawu at
all, but natural and effective. Willie
Edouiu makes a capital Lord Dundreary;
as good or better than any we have seen
on that stage. Hamilton also rendered
the character Of Abel Murcott very well
indeed, and Billy Rohinson's Binney
was good. Sue Robinsou's rendition OF
Florence Trenchard Vas Of course all
that could be asked, and the other
ladies creditably sustained the various
parts assigned them. THIS excellent
| play will be repeated tonight, after
which, if Mr.. Wheatleigh has anything
new, sensational or otherwise, in the
| dramatic line, he would do well to pro-
| duce it at once, both for the benefit OF
himself and the general interests Of all
concerned. Variety and novelty is the
spice of Washoe life.
JOHN PipER.-Ex-Mayor John Piper,
Of Virginia, returned last evening from
San Francisco, where he has been for
the last week or two prospecting about
for new talent and fresh novelties to be
produced before long at Piper's Opera
House. Due announcement Of the good
things secured will be given at the
proper time. The Piper brothers are
men of excellent judgment and true
business energy in their line, and past
experience has taught them how best to
cater to the cultivated tastes Of our
theater going public. They are we'll
deserving Of the most triumphant sue
cess.
IxpERIAL-ENpIRE SHArT.-This highly
important shaft is now sunk to the
depth Of fifty feet below the 9OO.foot
station, and tho deeper sinking is still
being prosecuted with the greatest en-
ergy, progressing much faster thai 1t
did II short time ago, by reason OF the
rock being now much softer. A few
fee, of the hard iron rock is still en-
eouptered at the south end Of the shalt,
but, from the pitch of the strata, this
will soon run out. At the present rate
| of progress, Mr.. Colcord, the energetic
Superintendent, informs us that he
hopes to gain another fifty feet IN depth
| BY the end Of the present month.
LErErRr.-Eugene Lefevre, indicted
on a charge of numbering Christie.
pher Penuiug, was to have been placed
on trial at washoe City last Monday,
| but owing to two Of the principal wit

trial could o be proceeded with. II
they are not found, the result viii
be that Lcfevre will be allowed to plead
guilty to m~auslsughtcr and he sentenced
therefor.

nation Of the numerous friends and &C
ouaintances hereabouts Of the above

traced a distance Of over 100 feet.
