WARNING TO TREsPAssERs.-Mr. Pr
per in his renovation and In some res
poets remodeling of his popular theater
for the coming grand Italian Opera
season, under the auspices of the Aga
tia States Troupe, has adopted one
new, and we consider very excellent
idea. 1t Is simply that Of having the
number of each seat painted conspicu-
ously On the top moulding, where 1t
can be prominently seen, instead Of
having It out Of sight where neither
those entitled to the seats nor the usher
can find them. Whoever secures a re-
served seat now In the dress circle, by
purchase or otherwise, will receive the
u Sual ticket to show for 1t, and will
fin,i no difficulty In getting their seats,
wheH all they have to do Is to sit down
opposite their numbers. This will have
the effect to keep out all in~terlopers-
that Is to say, those to whom the seats
do not belong. Piper says whoever Is
hereafter found occupying a seat for
which they cannot show the proper
card, will have to Ego right away
out and no nonsense about IL, especl-
ally during the coming opera season.
Whoever buys and pays for number 81.
%, or any other number In the dress
circle, will get them, and no one buy
Ing two seats can, surreptitiously, APP
,propriate q third without being dis
gracefully caught at 1t. Trespassers
will have to look out.
VALUABLE Cow MENNLY KILLED.
MrL. Henry, Of this town, keeps a
5oardlng-house. She Is a poor, hard
working woman, toiling late and early
to support her little family. She had
q vainable Durham COW, which sup
piled the regulate milk for her table,
and being q gentle domestic animal,
which she had reared from a calf, she,
a. we'll as the children, looked upon 1t
as one Of the family. This morning.
the COW not coming home to be MIXED
rs usual, Mr.. Henry went In search
and found her near the ruins Of the old
Eclipse mill, ut the upper end OF town,
lying In q pool Of blood and evidently
diving. Some brutal individual had
either shot or stabbed her In the right
side, i~nffictlng a small but deep n
fatal wound. The poor animal was
not dead at noon, but lay unable 70
rise, and no one thought she could l v
long. The grief Of the family at being
50 cruelty deprived of their pet, and
one of their means Of support, may
we'll be imagined. We do not want
the Acquaintance Of any n so wan
touly mean as to ~perpetrate so das-
tardly and cruel an act.
ExcusAB1.E.-The mill men Of the
Carson river recently sent an agent up
the stream, says the Carson Register,
to nee II farmers were wasting water,
and to ascertain II there were any per-
sons using the river above to which the
mills below had q prior right. The
agent found q new conner, ensconceo
among the willows, irrigating q small
garden and Potatoe patch, and asked
him II he did not know he was using
water which belonged to otner par.
ties-the mill men. The man frankly
answered In the affirmative. but
r.Id he, in a half sad half cheerful
tome. Hstep this way a moment" and
he led the agent through the willows
to a little hut, In the door Of which a
handsome middle aged woman sat sew
ine. and around which three bright
and beautiful children were playing.
Pointing to these, he looked the agent
straieht In the eye and said, inqulring-
": o"These are my excuses" How
ever soulless corporations may be, that
agent had a soul that swelled up to
bis throat, as he turned away, saying,
"You are e~xcusable."
SINGULAR DEATH OF A VALUABLE
Horse. - Judge W. n. Hall, Of the
we'll known firm Of Bittner & Co., in
this town, owned q valuable gray
borse. which he thought o great deal
OF and be kept him at the Eclipse Liv-
erv Stable. Some time during last
nirht the horse got loose by rubbing
off his halter, or through some other
unforeseen means, and In wandering
about the stable he came to an old
mining shat In the northeast corner,
and is being covered with boards Of
insufficient strength, he managed to
break through, and went down head
first. The shaft Is 10 or 80 feet deep,
.bnt Ia filled with water to within Is or
90 feet Of the top, consequently the
.horse was drowned. It Is a grievous
loss, and most unfortunate occurrence
