may stir up its latent echoes shortly,
but nothing substantially attractive
will probably appear there before about
the FIRST OF next month. That oil Opera
House has experienced II lively history,
aud numerous funny as well rs sensa-
tional arrangements have becn seen
there, from Menkeu's horse down 10
Hayton's Newfoundland. Barrett aud
Mccullough appeared there, aud didn't
dare to travestie Richard III or so back
on themselves, AS they did at Gold Hill.
Menken achieved her frst substantial
success on that stage, aud so did John
Mccullough. Thcr- are also those who
met with too good success in their debu'
on that stage-were ;oo kindly encour-
sged-and therefore have never heen
"wotth shucEs" since. Good critics
ALWAYS have and DO niteut that thea;cr,
therefore il i, sheer folly for scrIbs 10
ob,rude themselves upon that stage.
True merit is what is called for, aud
none other will succeed there.
GHAsrLY.-Last Monday, ut the fire.
mems tournament, on G street, Virginia,
when the various companies were con-
tending in the race against itme for the
big FIRE trumpet, it was quite q curious
feature to note the effect of that fearful
race, on those who participated. For
eight men to run with that jumper,
carrying 500 feet Of hose, At the very
top Of their speed sucha long distance
l,452 feet-was no joke by any means,
and not much oyer half Ut those who
started 60, through. rhey dropped oil
all along the route, many before they
got half way, and even those whose
superior bottom carried them through,
instead OF being flushed with heat and
exercise, looked dGectly the reverse.
No, one of them had any color in his
face or lips at all. They looked perfect
ly pale, and CHASTITY rs dead men, In
deed it would not have beeuat nll sur
prising to see either of them NIL dead
from the exercise and violent over exer.
ton, yet il did not seem 70 injure them
at ali, for in less than half an hour
afterward they were all right again,
with countenances ~ healthy ana
smiling as ever.
NEw FIRE BELL. Monumental En-.
CINE Company No. 6, on the Divide,
received a new FIRE bell from San Fran
cisco a few days ago, and i; has since
been properly hung in position on their
new engine house. Its clarion tones
were heard on the 18th, creating u new
and desirable sensation in that locality.
A good alarm bell has always been
needed there, AS by reason OF remote
ness from any such arrangement, the
members Of the company could not al
