PRER's OpERA HoUsE-THE ORA
MArc SEASON CLosED.-The Proctor
dramatic season at the Opera House
came summarily to a close last even
ing, owing to lack Of public support.
The fact of It Is that since Miss Price
left our theatre-goers seem to have
lost all desire for the drama, and trans
ferred their patronage to the skating
rinks. Owing to the continued illness
| of Miss Sue Robinson, and the indispo-
| sition of Mrs. Wilton and other MEM
bers Of the company, Camille was not
performed last evening, but In view OF
the declining attractions Of the drama,
La Tour de Nesie, or the Chamber Of
Death, was appropriately substituted.
They played 1t we'll and effectually,
all hands being killed of in the fourth
act, so that another act could not have
been played, from scarcity Of actors:
Fulford then came out and recited
"Bingen on the Rhine " In good style,
and was deservedly applauded. Liv-
ingston concluded the entertainment
with a medley Of amusing vocal imita-
tions, representing a row in a family,
a discussion among various individuals
at q public lecture, etc. Thus closes the
drama. The business OF the week has
resulted In serious loss to the manage
ment. Such business, we should judge,
would hardly justify any increase of
theatrical license rates by the Legisla-
ture. What new attraction will re-
open the Opera House next?
Coop APPorNrMENT.-At the meet
ing Of the Commissioners, held at Vir-
ginia to-day, DR.. j. G. Zabriskie, Of
Gold Hill, was unanimously elected to
the responsible position OF Physician
Of the County Hospital. The appoint
ment Is a most excellent one, and we
congratulate the Commissioners, u
good friend and fellow citizen the
Doctor, and all concerned, upon this
judicious and worthy selection-re-
GREETING, however, to lose so good a
physician and citizen from our CON-
munity.
OFF FOR PIocHE.J. A. Colwell,
for q long time a resident Of Virginia
City, left last Wednesday night for
Phoebe, where he proposes to better
his financial condition hereafter, if
possible. After a while he will 60

his brother and himself have rich
mines. Quite q number r going

10 DE AMENDED.-Senator Hall to-
day introduced u bill into the Senate
amending the Act incorporating the
town of Gold Hill. We have not seen
q copy of the Amendatory Act, but un-
derstand that 1t Is entirely acceptable
to the town authorities, rs 1t will make
n saving Of expenses for official SER
vices Of quite a sum In the course oil q
year. If the Senator will send us a
copy of the bill we will publish 1t.
A FLuTrER.-T The Carson Register
says: "The arrival of Sheriff j. d.
Patterson, of White Pine county, in
this city, yesterday, created a consid-
cradle flutter among the delegation
from that county-until 1t was ascer-
tanned that a member Of tho Legisla-
ture was not subject to arrest under
civil process"
