THE EVENING NEWS.
Friday Ev.nlnE..--.---Murch IL, 1860
A ONr-wHEELEp YELocIrEpE.-As th

day and everybody seems to be getting
on it, we give the following description
Of a new style of the article, extracted
from the Sacramento Record, as q sup.
gestiye idea to Haskin, of Virginia,
who manufactures and rides the thing
or Nye, Of Gold Hill, who has been for
some time past studying how to get up
one without wheel, lock, stock, barrel,
piston or rudder. The Record says: On
examining it we found it II veritable
one-wheeled veloeipede, not unlike
"Schnitzerle's Philosopede that event
mitout q Wheel in front und hadn't none
pehind.' II is an immense cage, made
of hickory aud securely bolted together.
II is spherical shaped, only fa,tened at
the axes. Il is about eight feet in diam
eter one way and four feet the other.
The rider sit, on II swinging seat, hung
from the cranks on the inside Of the
wheel, and by turning the cranks pro
pels it forward There are three rims
running around the outside, which gives
a width of about eighteen inches, on
which it travels. In case of it falling,
which velocipodes are so liable to do, it
is impossible to step out on the ground,
but the rider must hold o. to the seat
as well as he can, turning end over end,
until il ceases rolling. None but II very
agile person and those not subject to
dizziness should attemp, to ride it. 1t
is much the same rs rolling q man in n
barrel. Altogether it is the ''rummest'
looking machine we ever Jaw. How
ever, with a few alterations, we think it
practicable to gain n high rate of speed
on it, especially going down hill.
GOLD HILL THEATER. Tomorrow
evening, as will be seen by advertise
meut in another column, under head of
New To-Day" James Stark, the emf

ARE You RlGHT, CHIEF?-About ) p.
". yesterday one of Woodruff L Ennor's
fast freight teams arrived at their Office
on South C street, Virginia, and when
unhitchcd, one of the team, o colt, being
n little unruly, kicked up and startled
the other horses so that they all ran off
up street, pell NELL to the stable, IA hun
dred yards or so above. Deputy Chief
Of Police Hall happened to see them and
at once arrested the lot and took them
to the city pound, releasing them only
on the payment of Sl2 so. Thus far
Chief Hall has performed the duties of
his Office very creditably, but in this in
stance we think he has exceeded his
authority and has no city ordinance to
back him up. This, however, is y mat
ter for the Board OF Police Commission
ers to decide.
Carson lrEMs.-The Apped! of this
morning says "Sandy Baldwin and
Daggett were in town last evening.
The righteousness Of their personal
appearance may be imagined when we
state that they had snapped hats.
What was their errand of mercy we did
not hear" Dog uuiSauces, the APPSdt
is specially down on. Here's what
Mighds saith on the subject: ave notice
that whenever anybody rides through
Carson street, at n eHnter or trot, on
horseback, there is Il sudden rush at
the horses heels Of not less than six
nor more than q thousand yelping dogs.
One Of these days we expect to see II
horsemsn deliberately d ismouut, haul
out his x-shooter and kill u dozen or
two Of these good for nothing ours
and we shouldn't blame such an act.
IMPERIAL-ENPIRE.-Stil unfayorable.
At the l.OOO-foot level, after drifting
west about 80 feet into the ledge, they
turned and drifted north so feet towards
the Alpha, in hopes to strike something
good in that direction, but without sue
cess. Drifting west was recommended
Yesterday, in hard, barren white quartz.
At the l~,lO0.foot level they have cut
west into the ledge 30 feet, and the face
OF the drift is ut present in barren por-
phyry Of the hardest kind. When the
water from these drifts is drained out n
little more sinking the main shaft deeper
will be recommended.
GoyE AND Cor MARRrEp.-Charles II.
Daley, of the firm of Daley 4 Delaney,
c street, Virginia, WAS married last
evening, at ST. Paul's Church, to Jennie
A. Simpson Of that city. Official no.
tice of the same will be found under the
usual head of Marriages." in another
column. The church was crowded, and
after the ceremony was over, the happy
pair held IA reception of their numerous
personal friends ut the International
Hotel.
CuoLLAR-PorosI YiXLD.-The total re-
eeip,s Of this mine for February were
S74,sGs 81, an increase over January Of
S24,35s. Last week 40 tons Of ore
were extracted, worth, according TO
assay, about S35 per ton. The lower
levels Of this mine are not looking Mt all
promising just now. The ~l,24O-foot
level is into the ledge 100 feet east OF
the west wall, and the face of the DRIFT
is in porphyry.
BALLS LAST NIGuT.-The ball in con
~clusion Of the late Methodist Fair at
