PlrEn's OPERA Houss.-Harrison'

PIpEa's OPERA Housx.-Harrison's
benefit was well attended last evening,
and an extra 6ne entertainment was
given. Sour American Cousin" was
the first play. Amy Stone as Florence
Trenehard Mrs. Reach as Mary Mere
di,h Mrs. Stewart MS Lady Guessing
ton /; Harry Hawk as Asa Trenchard /;
George Hinckley as Richard Coyle, and
&. W. Marsh as the "puffy waiter
Binney, all did very well. Harrison's
Abel Murcott was rather above the
average, but Stones Lord Dundreary
was the very worst we ever saw, being
badly overdone in every respect.
Sammy Goodchild appeared TO ex-
ceileut advantage as Buddicombc and
received applause. Louisa 1Arnot's
Irish Tilt was received with huge
favor, and loudly encored. "Toodles"
was given as the nfterpiece, and in tina.
Jolly bibulous title character, Harrison
made a decided hit, being nearly or
quite equal to Dan Setchell. Mrs.
Stewards personation of Mrs. Toodles
was the best ever presented on that
. stage Miss Maggie Dayley is quite an
addition to the company, persouatiug
minor characters quite acceptably.
"Black-Eyed Susan " will be presented
to night with "Jaek Sheppard for
the sftcrpiece. Both are very attract.
i've pieces, and in the first, Miss
Louisa Arnot and II. F. Stone will per-
form II double sailors hornpipe. No
extra charge for reserved seats.
LIFE IysrRAScE.-As We have before
stated, Michael Mccormick, one of the
miners killed in the Crown Point niue
ON the occasion Of tho late terrible dis
aster, was the only Que Of all the vic
TINS who had any insurance upon his
life. Only five days previous he had
insared to the extent of $4,000 in the
Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company
of California. Thomas Mccoy, another
victim, had also been considering the
cxpediency Of life insurance, and only
the evening previous to the disaster he
called at the office of the North British
and Mercantile Insurance Company and
expressed his intention of taking out u
policy, inquiriug particularly into the
rates, etc. He left, saying that he
would call again the next day. Every
miner should have at least 81 1000 in
sured upon his life, especially ii he is II
married man, or has any person what
ever dependent upon him for support.

insignificant sum for II larger amount.
MENTAL INTERCHANGEABLE other
night after the theater was out, II soli-
tary horseman, as G. P. Il. James
would say, might have been seen pass
ing over the Divide between Virginia
and Gold Hill. He thought he was u
horseman, but from the way that
Gold Hitler swayed back on the check
. rein and craukily worked his feet in the
stirrups no couldn't tell whether 1t
was n horse or n v~e!ocipedc he was
riding. Professor Orudosf, the great
yelocipedist himself, couldn't have
worked his feet or stuck out his elbows
TO better advantage. This is the same
Gold Hitler who had sueh,a rough time
bringing a lantern down over the Di-
vide one night a few weeks ago, and
has been under the impression ever
since that he had two Of them.
