Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1870-12-09

Gold Hill to-day. Our Police Judge
Is an old bachelor, and in the perform
ance of his duty this morning he hat
to send Mrs. Dram to the County jail
for drunkenness and disorderly conduct
No sooner had she been committed
than Mr.. Dram, the husband aud father,
made his appearance in the courtroom
with three small children and made
them a present to the modest Judge,
stating that he didn't want them ans
longer, aud that the Judge could and
should have them, now that he had
sent their mother to Jail. But the old
bachelor wouldn't have the children
never wanted children In all his life
and he had now got to be too old tc
have any ; besides, he wasn't married
to Mrs. Dram, and be id II he ex.
pected to be to such a woman! No, he
would rather not. Dram became OBJ
s%treperous, and insisted upon the pa.
ternal assumption Of the Judge, but II
was of no use. Being about to leave
the children in Court without q mother,
a father, or even a foster-father, Con.
stable Harkin was compelled to collar
the said Dram to make him take his
children home where they came from,
He had to go the station-house. Singu.
lar and unnatural Is It certainly
proved, the irate and bombastic Dram
mo relation to dd rdi-orem) preferred
going to the station-house to be locked
up, where he now Is, OH the charge Of
d~isorderly conduct. The mother is In
jail, the father Il In the station-house,
and the poor children are in charge Of
the cold charity Of the world. We
learn that Constable Harkin intends
IMPLYING to the authorities to get them
into the Orphans Home at Carson.
PrER's OrERA HousE-THE "Ocro.
R~ooN."-Last evening being the only
halfway favorable n of the week,
thus far, the dress circle was graced
with q much more numerous attend
ance of ladies, consequently the seats
were all full. The %parquette has been
crowded every evening, the male the
ater-goers being better able to face the
wintry storms and whirling blasts OF
the streets than the ladies. The
great attraction of the occasion
was BoucicD lt's fine Southern de-
~lineative firc-act play, entitled
the OctoroOn, or Life IN Louisiana.
Proctor personated "Wah-no-tee, "the
Lipan Indian chief, in his usual most
excellent style; aud "Zoe," the octo-
room slave girl, found a very effective
representative in Miss Sue Robinson.
Edmonds succeeded we'll as Jacob
McClosky," and so did Thayer rs
"Salem Scudder.' Miss Grace Hezlep
personated dido" very a~cceptably.
j. b. Robinson made an excellent hit
rs "Cncle Pete" the old plantation
darkey. Some Of the other persona
tions are entitled to special mention,
and the general rendition Of the piece
was evidently very satisfactory to the
audience. The machinery was a pecu-
liar success, initiating the humping
and Jerking Of the steamer and canoes
over sand. bars, rocks and snagS very
we'll. The Oaoroon will be repeated
tonight.
DEATH OF GARNErT.-Garnett, the
desperate old toot-pad, died at the
State Prison yesterday afternoon. He
kept up good courage to the last, and
died like n staunch old robber Is sup
posed to, without making any whim-
pering confession or duplicating any
pals In past crimes which he may have
been concerned in. Perhaps he really
had no confessions to make, nor death
bed secrets to reveal: II lie had, they
died with him. The Carson Appeal OF
this morning says: IAN event which
has been looked for ever since the late
emeute ut the State Prison tranSpired
Yesterday afternoon between 4 and 5
o'clock. At that time Garnett, the
man who received a deringer pistol
wound ut the hands Of Captain Ding
man, breathed his last. This is the
third death that has ensued from tie
shooting done OH that occaSion. Heff-
ron, or Hefferman, the other wounded
man, is in y fair way of recovery"
