Pliers OPERA HoUsE.-The Col
Teen Bach did not draw a very large
audience at its first presentation, on
Monday evening, as, although 1t Is a
very good play, well performed, yet
it has been played so many times here
that it Is no longer much Of an
attraction. 1t therefore drew a very
slim house last evening-just what 1t
always will do. when repeated, not
! outstanding the excellence Of its rem
dition. The Eton Boy given rs the
afterpiece, Is also an old play, although
a very excellent one, and was enacted
in much better than usual style, Sue
Robinson appearing In her favorite
parts Of "Tom" and "Fanny Curry"
This evening Nick Of the Woods will be
given, with Proctor in his famous
| character Of the "Jibbenainosay" or
Bloody Nathan" For balance Of
cast see advertisement and distributed
programmes. This thrilling play drew
a fine audience at its first presentation,
a few evenings ago, and 1t is repeated
tonight by particular request.

of admission to the coming carnival
masquerade at Athletic Hall, Virginia,

cember 2Sth-a week from tonight

pose attending, or they may get barred

chickens, ducks, geese and other desir-
ables in that line requisite to the pro-
per observance of Christmas, and the
butchers are fitting up their markets
with the choicest Of fat beef, mutton
and all that sort ofthing. From present
indications the Christmas display of
these good things will be much finer
than usual this year. The various
churches Of Gold Hill and Virginia
are also being appropriately trimmed
for the occasion, and Young Washoe
is indulginS in the pleasures Of antici-
patton Owe the coming treasures to be
gathered from the Christmas Tree.
SKATING. - Thus far tile proposed
skating rink at Virginia has not been
n success, owing to difficulty In making
it hold water long enough to freeze.
That difficulty Is nov about obViated,
and if the weather will allow, there
will shortly be y good sheet Of ice to
skate upon. We are informed that
certain parties at Virginia propose
constructing 4 smooth wooden floor III
n hall for roller skating

, Ice AT DAYToS.-Carson river, at
Dayton, is well frozen, the ice being
over six inches thick, furnishing excel
lent skating. Parties are engaged In
cutting and saving ice at that point for
next summers use. 1t has evidently
been colder about Dayton than in Gold
Hill or Virginia.
CoMPLETED.-The Virginia andG old
Hill Water Company have just COM
pleted those two large water reser-
voirS or tanks, at Virginia, We made
mention Of a few days since. One Is
near the junction OF B and c streets,
and the other Is just above b street,

drawbacks until the salubrious bark of
the soap tree was brought from the
Gillian valleys to perfect the fragrant
Sozodont, the most wholesome, relia-
BILE and delightful article for the teeth
that a brush was v dipped into.
HEMTnY.-There is very little sick
ness prevalent In this section at the
present time, thanks to pure air and
healthy weather. Neither the doctors
nor undertakes are growing rich just
