Prxn's OPERA HOUSE, "SrSBAD

PmxR's OPERA HOUSE "SINRAp
THE SA1oR.'-The Opera House was
even more densely crowded last even
ing than 1t was on the opening night,
attesting to the great and increasing
popularity of the famous Lydia
! Thompson Blonde Burlesque Troupe.
The entertainment consisted OF the
| celebrated Oriental Arabian Nights
extravaganza, Sin5dd the Sailor. MISS
THOMPSON appeared in the title char
acter, and although not the most maui
tical looking parsonage we ever saw,
vet we have naught to say against the
truly pleasing and jolly style Of her
rendition. Miss Markham, as "kohi-
moor" was Just as b~ewitchingly beau
tifnl as usual, and performed well her
mart. Miss Belle Hewitt, as the "Sul-
TAM" succeeded we'll, and the same
may be said Of Miss Longmore, as
Hafiz. Miss Grace Heslip personated
Selim pretty we'll, although h 10 not
a "blonde." Cahill was very amusing
as the Celtic Hadjii," with his con-
slant quotations from Harper. Hall
personated cali FL Ektro" In capital
STYLE. and the lovely "Alaska Diamond
FAY" found q very appropriate repre-
sentative In r. G. Marsh. Some OF the
other characters were commercially
sustained, and the piece passed off very
smoothly, barring an exasperating
hitch or two In the working OF the
machinery. Sinbad the Sailor will be
repeated tonight. We advise all our
Silver City, Carson and Dayton friends.
or anywhere else contiguous, to visit
the Opera House by all means and see
the Blondes. Their engagement closes
with this week, when they leave to
fulfill engagements in other parts OF
the country. They constitute the most
attractive attraction appearing at the
Opera House this season.

our population has enjoyed a continual

squaws, pappooses and all do most
thoroughly enjoy riding back and
forth OH the empty freight cars. 1t Is
the chief pleasure Of their life II
would suppose, to see the way
they g to enjoy it. They never
get hurt either, but just quiz
city climb aboard and sit or
lie down out Of everybody's way, en-

LOOK AT THE RUINs.-Aye, look at
ruins of what N were magnificent
sets of teeth, to be seen everywhere In
society. Look at them, and ask your
self If it is not marvellous that such
destruction is permitted, when,. by
simply using Sozodont, any teeth, how
ever fragile, may be preserved from
decay or blemish as long as life lasts!
