MENr OF THE "WoSpERFUL GRECO
RYs" FOR ANOTHER WEEx-GREAT
SuocEss.-In view of the immense sue
cess of the famous Gregory troupe ut
the Opera House, they have consented
to appear for another week, closing q
week from tonight. Our critical
theater-goers have been thus far highly
delighted with the great novelty and
true merit Of their performances ;
therefore they have appeared nightly
to crowded houses Notwithstanding
the stormy. disagreeable state of the
weather. Nothing like it has ever
been seen In this section. Every feat
they perform Is Of the highest order Of
merit In many respects excelling all
previous efforts in that line, rs witness
their Flying Men Of the Air" their
horizontal bar acts their double
"Giant SWING" their revolving
orb performances that terrific
spiral pyramid globe ascent, from
the parquette to the ceiling Of the
theater, the grand transept flight from
dress circle to stage. Those highly
trained dogs are q miracle of canine
education never before dreamed Of
here, and the miniature circus. the
droll Punch and Judy show, and nu-
merous other queer doings and tai
ented performances, constitute the
most attractive exhibition Of It's kind
ever visiting the land Of Washoe. New
features are introduced each evening,
and the popular little favorite, Miss
Bessie Gregory, singsa great variety
of choice songs, comic and otherwise.
Large numbers Of reserved seats are
taken each evening" very wise pre-
caution In view of the crowds attend
ing. Go and see the Gregory's to-
night.
MORE PTUTE FEsTrvITY.-"Capta
Charley" one of the great chiefs Of
the Piute nation, called on us yester-
day to officially inform us that his peo-
pie are going to have another grand
findango pow-wow, down on Walker
river, about a mile below Pine Grove.
They propose keeping up the fun for
ten days commencing tomorrow.
Charley seems to think balls in the
winter are just as appropriate for the
Piutes rs for white folks. Who knows
but what the time may come when the
young Piute warriors may be seen
whirling their duSky, raven-tressed
partners in the mazes of the waltz,
schottish. or mazurka, to the wild,
festive vibrations of the squeaking reed
flute and Indian drum? Perhaps Pro-
lessor Millington, Ascheim, Lyon. or
the e~nterprising Fillebrown. might
take cue from this item with profit.
Captain Charley starts out to-
morrow for the scene Of festivities,
and has got himself up in stunning
style for the occasion, with bob-tailed
coat ~gorgeously adorned with shoulder
straps and red flannel, and the brass
button armament on his plug hat
freshly rubbed up. The festive chief
wakes jubilant as he exclaims, "Heap
pish! heap pine nut, heap squaw.
Heap eat, heap dance, you bet!"
CHANGED HANDs.-The bus line be-
tween here and Virginia has changed
hands, as will be seen by advertise
ment in another column. Jake White,
formerly driver OH the route, and lat
terly on the Dayton stage line, has
bought out Hampton & Co, and now
drives the bus himself. 1t looks quite
natural to see him mounted on that
box again. He proposes making as
many regular trips as the state Of the
road will allow, between the stands at
either end of the route, between s
o'clock A. ". and about . O'Clock p. NJ, |
also running one trip to Gold Hill
after the theater Is out, In order to
bring down those who attend from
hereeauite an accommodation these
dark muddy nights. Fare % cents, |
and after s o'clock In the evening, so
cents. Patronize the bus line by all
means. 1t is cheaper to pay two bits
for q ride than TO wear out four bits
worth of shoe leather or backing by
walking.
INFORMATION WANTED.-E. d. Per-
kins writes us from Suisun, California,
particularly desiring information con-
corning Charles B. Goodmant who died
about three years ago at Virginia City,
and was n special policeman there.
He asks: "What was the cause Of his
death? Did he have any money or
property? Was he a married man?
Is his place of burial known? What
were his habits? / understand that
his mother. or some of his relatives,
wish to remove his remains to near
Sacramento" Any n who will
write, communicating the requisite
information, will confer a great favor.
Doua.-Everybody knows Doug"
the popular driver so long officiating
rs chief whip on the Virginia and Gold
Hin omnibus line. Well, Jake White
having purchased the bus line and
concluding to drive 1t himself. Doug's
''occupation's gone" The ladies al
ways Smiled OH Doug, and his gentle
men passengers liked him-even the
children all wanted to ride with him.
Doug don't say what he proposes to do
next, but whatever he chooses to 60
into he is sure Of plenty Of friends to
speak q good word for him.
MUpDY.-,Fhe above word Is eS-
pressive of the nasty condition Of the
streets Of Virginia and Gold Hill at the
present time. Up ut Virginia, how
ever, they have plenty OF good plank
street crossings, therefore don't mind
the mud 80 much. while here the only
really good crossing Is the railroad at
the upper end Of town, If we except
the partially effective block crossing
from Vesey's Exchange to Haas & Co.'S.
INFORMATION WANTEn.-The wife
and family Of James Murphy, formerly
of Stacyville, Iowa. are anxiously de-
sirous of hearing from him. He is or
was In or about Gold Hill, and they
have not heard nom him for the last
nine months. Any one who can give
them information as to him or his
whereabouts, will confer a great favor
by communicating with them, or with
the Rev. II. P. Malone, Georgetown,
