CARSON ITEMs.-We extract the fol-
lowing from the Register of this morn
ing: Mrs. John Hoy, of Walker River
bridge, Esmeralds road, who had been
in this city for a week with her little
boy frankie under medical treatment,
started home yesterday morning, but
when the stage reached Genoa she
found the child rapidly sinking. She
stopped ut Genoa, and the little boy
died at half-past II o'clock yesterday.
He was about six years Of age....A
modest and unheralded snowfall Wis
tied us last evening, commencing
about S O'Clock. At 10 last night the
ground was covered to the depth of
three inches, with q fair prospect that
two more would be added before
morning go. Mrs. Jane Jackson, Of
ebony hue, yesterday swore out a war
rant against her liege lord, George
Washington Jackson, Of African de-
scent, for whaling her, the gentle
Jane. The case will come up for trial
before Justice Parkinson and q jury at
l o'clock this afternoon.
The CARTER TRoUrE.-The Sacra-
mento Union says that a theatrical
company known as the Carter troupe,
which has been playing at various
points along the line Of the Central
Pacific Railroad, passed through that
city day before yesterday en- route for
San Francisco. This Is doubtless the
famous "Carter Dramatic Troupe
consisting Of Carter and wife and q
man of all work, who appeared at
Pipsr's Opera House a couple Of years
ago and undertook to play the people
by playing Lucrezia Borgia, and other
plays Of ike magnitude, with such q
full cast. The "troupe" didn't win
here, although Carter privately in-
formed u. that they "took splendid
out at Cheyenne" He seemed to
think people here couldn't appreciate
true talent and condensed versatility.
The COLE CoMPANY's WXTER.-The
Cole Company having got the upper
hand Of the old Virginia & Gold Hill
Water Company, and recovered pos
session by law Of the fine stream Of
pure good water so surreptitiously
tapped and taken away from them by
the old company, will turn this water
into their pipes In about a week. They
will also proceed to lay more pipes
where required. The Enterprise spoke
of this stream as being "five or six
inches, more or less" 1t Is n stream
of over fifty inches-suiHcient to sup
ply all the people OF Virginia, and
perhaps Gold Hill, with pure, soft,
healthy water.
BRING BACK THOSE SKATES The
who took two pairs Of roller
skates from the Liberty Engine Hall
rink last evening, without per-
will ave d~isagreeable trouble
and expense by returning the same

and will most surely get into difficulty
unless they bring back the skates I'm
without further notification.

another column. We are likewise re-
quested to notify in a similar manner
certain individuals Mt Virginia who are
extremely liable to have an officer call
them unless they do the right thing.
