fully attended, the dress circle present.
ing a particularly pleasing appearance,
from the prettily dressed ladies and
children with which it was crowded. A
very excellent and satisfactory enter
tainment was given. The Same may DC
said of last evening. This evening
Billy Ashcroft and Add Weaver take a
joint benefit, and the bill for the occa-
sion is replete with extraordinary at
fractions, calling for a crowded house.
"Dutch Lamentations" "Shaksperian

OPulR SrRIKE.-The mining report in
the Enterprise of Sunday morning, in
making mention of the 0phir mine, goes
on very learnedly TO speak Of extensive
bodies Of rich pay ore in the surface
workings of that mine, and which fur.
nishes the principal supply of the mill
at present. The anxious stockholders
in the. mine need not go to getting at
all excited over this stunning piece of
information. 1t ia only q biz of a blum
der. The joke of the matter is this In
stealing from our mining report Of the
day previous, Dan clipped out n portion
relative to the Sierra Nevada mine, and
recklsssly pasted it to his remarks on
the Ophir-got it under the wrong
head. That's all, but it's a Judgment
upon him such wicked Pilferirgs are
always liable to bring him to grief. We
magnanimously forgive him this time.
We can afford TO.
liz MoURNISG.-The flags on all the
principal hosting works and mills, and
the engine houses, Of Virginia and Gold
Hill are set at half mast to-day in
mourning over the death of Judge
Baldwin. When the sad news arrived
at Virginia last evening the fire bells
wero tolled; and as he was 4 member OF
Washoe Engine Company, No. 4, the
front Of their hall is appropriately
drapsd with black and white Grape.
The deceased was also a member Of
Virginia Lodge, No. 3, +. and "A. NJ,
and Mount Davidson Lodge, No. B.,
/. O. o. F. Several Of the personal
friends of deceased left for San Fran
cisco last evening.
Insurance. uPoS JUDGE BALpwIS's
LIFs.-Judge A. W. Baldwin's life was
insured for sac, 900 in tho Manhattan,
and $4,000 in the Mutual Life Of New
York, so we are informed by Mr.. Spros-
ton, agent for the latter company. He
was under the impression that Judge
Baldwin was also insured in an English
company for $4,000 more, but of this
he could not speak with certainty.
Thus it will be seen that through the
benefits of life insurance the bereayed
family is very amply provided for.

lodeon and burlesque company now per-
