Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1869-04-27

As might well have been supposed, two
dramatic stars like Stark and McCul-
Tough appearing together on the stage
at the Opera House, supported by so
good q company, last evening drew n
crowded house. The play given was
"Othello," md its rendition was truly
grand and peculiarly satisfactory.
John Mccullough is deseryedly a favor
tie here, and when he appeared last
evening for the first time under his pres
ent engagement, he received II warm
a~pplansiyo welcome from his numerous
friends. His personation OF Othello
could hardly be improved upon in any
point, although it seemed even better
than his previous presentation OF the
same character few months ego. Mr.,
Stark's Iago vas Il finely conceived,
finished piece Of acting, artistic aud
perfect, although like many others we
wero O. the opinion that n little modern
innovation or elongstion on that doubt
less ancient style OF curtailed jacket
might very appropriately have been
made to Stark's advantage. Claude
Burroughs, q new acquisition from the
Bay, succeeded well as Roderigo. Mrs.
Reach made n very acceptable, pretty,
pleasing aud good Desdemona, far
better than the average, and the Amelia
of Mrs, Stewart was excellent, fOrcible
and very dessrringly applauded. Har-
rison personated Cassie in bis usual un.
exceptionsble style. Caldwell alias G..
Livingston, appeared as the Duke and
succeeded very fairly, yet we have seen
him ~personate other characters better.
Richelisu will be given tonight,
with Mccullough as the great Cardinal,
and Stark as De Mauprat. What need
we say more? Go aud see il.
A CRYING NuIsAS cE.-All good peo-
pie agree generally in saying "God
bless little children" but nobody says
that in q crowded theat0r, where q
st~roug-lunged little six months baby
gets to crying and wont be paci6ed even
when the principal actor on the stage has
to stop in the middle of his most pathetic
passage and the entire audience, with
heads twisted all in one direction,
are eagerly waiting for that destroyer.
GUS young one to be packed ont. I'm
der such circumstances it must be far
more notifying and unpleasant 20 the
loving mother than IL she had lef: her
little one at home, or stayed there with
it. John Mccullough was thus inter-
rupted last evening, aud If we mistake
not that makes the second time while
playing in that theater that he had to
ask for q crying baby to be removed.
John is either unfortunate or pathetic
ally effective on the juvenile sensibili-
ties.
QuicKEsr TRIp OvERLASD--William

ing-only seven days and 10 hours be-
tween the two points. He does not look
badly dilapidated by the trip, and speaks
well Of this end Of the great railroad,
but that Of the Union Pacific Company
he speaks of as a poor piece OF work,
hastily thrown together, and consider
able OF y swiuGle on the Government rs

between the two ends of the railroad.
This is the quickest trip yet made.
