CARSON ITRMs.-We extract the fol-
lowing from the Register Of this morn
ing: Yesterday afternoon Constable
Hodgkinson and King, the painter,
took a stroll through Chinatown in
quest of stolen chickens. While
tering about the premises of a Chinese
restaurateur the officer saw n peculiar
looking enclosure resembling a closet
or ice chest in the wall. On opening
L. four chickens were found, which
Mr.. King readily recognized as be-
longing to the lot stolen from him a
few nights since. Hodgkinson ut once
nabbed the Celestial epicurean and
took him to the lookup. After the
arrest and recovery the officer again
visited Chinatown, accompanied by
several men and about thirty boys.
The latter rumaged the whole Chinese
quarter, but no further discoveries OF
stolen property were made 80. After
the death Of Hank Sherwood, DR.. Luce
assisted in opening the thigh to ex-
anime the wound which caused death.
In doing so the Doctor allowed some
portion Of the gangrened flesh to come
In contact with n small pimple on his
wrist, which thereby inoculated 1t,
causing the whole arm to become so
inflamed that ut one time II was feared
he would lose the limb. We are happy
TO state, however, that the Doctor is
now improving, and In all probability
will soon recover. -. No business was
transacted in the Supreme Court yes
terday, and q further recess was had
until today. The Second Judicial
District Court, in and for Ormsby
county, will meet ut 10 o'clock to-day.
DR.. Munckton left last evening for
Washington city, OH business, and Will
be absent about thirty days.
THE CARNrvAL To-NIGnT.-The gay
est and most festive arrangement Of

Union Hall, B street, Virginia. 1t is

pine, Is Just laid In a very workman
like manner, first-rate for roller skat-

floor the fun will proceed and the ball

ton Of the programme includes quad
rifles. marches, varieties and all that
sort OF thing, besides scientific skating

miss the best thing of the season.
A QUESTION. A correspondent,
signing himself "Corkscrew," desires
to be informed as to who the "Gold
Hill Benevolent Association is? In
answer, we can only say that Messrs.
J, Il. Welton, II. II. Flagg and II. c:
Manning are the gentlemen announced
ne its officers, and, so far as we know
jts objects, it being a lottery or gift
concert. the chances to win n good
nrizs ON the ticket Of admission to the
Concert are better than similar enter
nrises in California or Omaha. The
gentlemen who are announced as tne
6fficers stand we'll as honest bushes;
men; but as to their benerotsnce, we
know nothing OIL that score. we pre-,
sumo all Is right, and we would rather
invest In a home lottery than any other
