ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES.


TIE COMING AcrREss.-As we have
before stated, next Thursday evening
Piper's Opera House will be reopened
with an excellent dramatic company
from San Francisco, with Miss Rose
Evans for the bright particular star.
Miss Evans has been playing for sew
eral weeks at the Bay City, in the
California Theatre, meeting with tri-
umphant success ut the hands Of the
critical theatre-goers of the metropolis.
Miss Rose Evans is IN American by
birth, but bred upon the English stage,
and her style IS eminently that OF a
iirst-class tragic actress, yet ranging
we'll into the first order of comedy.
The San Francisco Chronicle, which
we recognize rs good authority in such
matters, thus speaks of her debut in
that city in ShakeSpeare'S famous play
of RomeO and Juliet: "Of below the
medium stature, with 4 well developed
form. n complexion fair rs alabaster,
finely formed features, a rich, melodi-
Gus voice, and large and expressive
dark eyes, young tperhaps twenty ana
very pretty withal, she filled all the
physical requirements that partly be-
long TO the ideal Juliet" The cur
tain rose on the first act to an audi
ence cold and critical, and, as it de-
scendcd upon the ballroom scene,
where the first meeting between the
lovers takes place, Miss Evans sue
cess was already assured. She had
captivated the would-be critics, and 4
spontaneous burst of enthusiastic APP
plausc called the fair artistic 10 the
iootlichts to bow her acknowledge
ments TO her delighted auditors. 10
briefly sum up the merits of Miss
Evans, we would say she is not 4 great
actress, but one of no ordinary ability,
who Is young enough yet to promise a
brilliant future. Intellectual in her
interpretation of the immortal bard,
she vet lacks that polish aud refine
ment which can be acquired only By
study. She is familiar with all the
stage business and graceful in car
rage. \ too free use OF very SYM
metrically formed arms is I fault
easily corrected. On the whole, Miss
Evans Is Il pleasing actress, made q
cidedly favorable impression on her
auditors last night. being called before
the curtain at the end Of each act
THIRD RopBER CAPTURED. - Last
evening Chief Downey and Detective
I.ackey succeeded in arresting ut Viz
rinia a man whom they have strong
evidence to believe was II Of the cIen
who robbed the incoming stage from
Reno Saturday morning. His name Is
Ned Downs, and he was formerly 4
resident of Silver City, and came up
from there about a week ago with
johnson. the first ro1bcr arrested.

HARD FNrE.-The Federal authori-
tiles have made 4 demand OF the STATE
Prison Warden tor the surrender 10
them of the Peoquop car robbers, lay
Tor, Morton and Baker, who, If sur
rendered, will be tried for their lives
this week before the United States Cir
cult Court. The prisoners are now
serving on a thirty years sentence III
the State Prison. The weight OF att
thority and legal opinion seems to be
that the State cannot surrender the rob-
bers, and that the Federal Court can:
moi get possession Of them for trial
until the expiration Of their term q,
sentence. 1t will be rough OH the boys
