MASONIC BALL AT SILvER.-To.mur-
row evening recollect tina, the grand
social ball to be given BY the mem
bers of Amity Lodge No. I, F. and
A. NJ, takes place at Armory Hall, Sill
yer City. This ball is not by any
an exclusively Masonic party, but the
good brethren under whose auspices it
is given invite their friends Of the gem
sral public to come and partake with
them of the truly social joys Of the
occasion. They have engaged the best
music %procurable and trimmed the hall
iu a neat and appropriate me An
excellent supper will be provided, the
ticket, are placed at S., aud if every
body who goes does not have II capital
good time it will not be the fault Of the
management.
Is IT So ?-Muggius came into the
News office, just before we went to
press, and he had the assurance to tell
that the reason why no Democrats at
tended the election polls to-day was,
that there was no whisky around to
bring them out. Muggins ought to have
his nose pulled for we noticed a good
many Republicans lamented the absence
Of the article too. That %prohibi,ory
liquor law on election day lis an abom-
~ination in the eyes of"-a good man..
1t is an innovation upon the elective
franchise, and it must be modified or re-
pealed. In fact, it is considered uReon-
stitational by a good many who consider
election day as second only to the Fourth
OF July-in point Of Liberty aud Inde-
p%sndencc.
A~DRIAric. Down at Flowery the
Adria,ic Company are doing an excel
lent business, in the way of taking out
goodly quantities ofpay ore, which they
expect to yield a handsome profit in
milling. They ommence running the
old De Land mill on ore from their valu-
able mine to-day. They have a 6ns
breast of ore in The mine at present,
over ten fee. in width, in which free
gold is frequently visible. The Adriatic
is a very promising mine, and will
doubtless prove q fortune to its proprie-
tors.
SrARK's BESEFIr.-James Stark, tho
w%ell-known and popular actor, takes a
benefit a. Piper, Opera House ,o-mor-
row evening. The play for the occasio n
will be Henry w." Stark appearing
as Fal,taf, in which chatacter be is said
to be most excellent. Mr.. Mccullough
will %persouate Hotspur, and Hotspur the
Prince. Stark deserves, and will doubt
less be co;nplimented with, a substan-
,ial ben Gs n the shape Of au extraordi-
narily crowded house.
REFREsnNsSTs.-Just before going to
press we were made refreshed by q bot
tie or so Of generous beverage from the
Washoe Exchange Billiard Saloon, sent
down by Evans & Orudorff, the cousid-
crate proprietors, with their compli-
ments. Their saloon is the one kept
open to-day in that city in order to test
the coust%itutionality of the new pro-
hibitory law. We find the beverage
perfectly constitutional.
HELD TO BAIL.-Chris Blair and party,
who attempted to rob Wells Fargo &
Co.'S office at Truekee II few days since
and were captured, are bound over in
the sum Of $4,000 each to appear before
the Grand Jury. Most OF the party
were formerly about Virginia but
Billy Forrest, who "blowed" on the
crowd, and exposed the whole plot, was
formerly an assistant engineer ut the
Crown Point.
BuLLIoY.-owing to our late mining
calamity and the closing up Of the three
principal mines in Gold Hill from the
9th Of April to the lst Of May, the ship
ments of bullion from this place for
April were very light. Wells, Fargo s
Co. shipped only $l5O,2l7 IS; and the
Pacific Union Express, Sl5s, 354 53-or
II total Of S30S,57l IS.
The ELECTION To-pAY.-The munich
pal elections of both Gold Hill and Yir-
GINA are running smoothly to-day. The
whisky mills are shut down in compli-
ancc with the law, therefore the Democ-
racy are demoralized and can run no
ticket. It's mighty rough on them
One saloon is said to be running in Vir.
GINA in order to test the law.
DIED OF SNALL-Pox.-Al. Prescott,
living in a cabin on the hillside back OIL
the town Jail, and Of whom we made
mention a few days since as having the
smallpox, died of that disease about
five o'clock. P. NJ, yesterday, and was
buried IN hour aud u half later. His
disease was OF the most malignant type,
VARioLoID.-Town Marshall Crandal
