OPERA House MELoDEoS.-Thers will
be a grand change of performances to-
night. Everybody goes to see the great
Ethiopian of Bone Squash Diablo,"
which will be put upon the Opera House
stage for the FIRST time this evening, 10
most magnificent style, With all the Pc
culiar scenery, costumes, startling CT.
fect,, etc., introducing in the last scene
a grand Pandemonium. There will also
be an entirely new frst part, walk
around and intsrlude, and all the mem
bers Of the company will appear in new
and pleasing acts. The Niger in tho
Meal Chest" will also be brought out.
The Melodeon continues to be remark
ably well %pstronized every evening, not
withstanding the tightuess Of the
money market and the low price Of
stocks. So much fun and pleasure, all
for the Insignificant sum Of four bits,
cannot be had anywhere else on the Pa
ciac Coast, and then the lager, wines,
stimulauts and cigars furnished to the
audience by the pretty waiter girls, are
of the very best. The theatsr is we'll
warmed aud comfortable. Go tonight.
FIRST UNDER PRorEsr.-The FIRST pay
ment under protest Of the tax levied
upon account Of the bonds to be issued
to the Virginia & Truckee Railroad Co.,
was made to-day by our neighbor Con-
rad Weigand. We do not envy him his
priority. We trust no one else may
follow his example, for opposition
to the Carson railroad is opposition to
the salvation OF Virginia and Gold Hill
from decay. 1t is only just, however,
to state, that Mr.. Wiegsnd is not OPP
posed to the county aiding or even
building the road and owning it. He
only objects to Issuing bonds to the
company without the county receiving
their value in stock. He holds the law
is unconstitutional which requires the
county to issue the bonds, and the as
sessmeut and collection of the tax there
fore illegal. We presume this is but
the prelude to al immediate suit for
the recovery of the money paid.
No MoRE FREE RAILROAD RIDrs.-Ac-
cordiug to the Carson Appeal, Supsrin-
,sndent Yerington says that be cannot
permit people to ride upon the construe-
ton trains in future. The reasons for
this are obvious. Men and boys crowd
the tender and the platform cars, greatly
at the risk Of their lives, when the
trains are in motion ; and the company
is, naturally, unwilling to incur tho
great risk to life and limb thereby iu-
volved. One or two trifing accidents
to these fresriders have already oc.
Cured, and it is well to guard against
something more serious, in time. AN
ounce Of prevention is worth a pound Of
cure"
MoRE STREET C~RossrNGs.-A commo-
dious and substantial plank and gravel
street crossing is being completed to-
day across c street, Virgins, from
Charley Legate's well known restau-
ran, to tho saloons opposite. This is
simply a wise and convenient prepara-
ton for the rush which will set in when
those fresh Baltimore oysters arrive at
Legate's. The worthy Alderman has
made arrangements to have q full and
continued supply of those desirable oys-
tiers the FIRST iustalmeut is daily ex-
pected. Another similar crossing is
made opposite the Virginia House, south
e street.
The GREAT BILLIARD CHAMPION
A telegram from John Deery, the great
billiard champion Of the universe, to
Jim Orndorf, this incoming, states that
he takes the 2 o'clock train this after
noon for Sacramento, and will arrive at
Virginia tomorrow morning. As will
be seen by reference to a new adver-
,isement in the proper place, to-day,
Deery is fully announced to give a grand
exhibition OF his wonderful skill at the
Washoe Exchange Billiard Saloon, on
Friday and Saturday evenings next, as
sisted by A. W. Jamison and Wallace
Wright.
