and we'll. The waterfall scene in the
first play, and the fairy lake scene In
the afterpiece were both very beautiful
and highly creditable to the artist, Mr..
Bell. AS to that matter, the scenic eff
fects at the Opera House form a very
attractive feature at the present time,
being better than ever seen there be-
fore. The same bill will be repeated
tonight. and no doubt to fully rs good

NArHAN's MURpERER.-The Carson
Register of this morning says: A gen.
tleman of this State, well posted in
current events, yesterday expressed to
us his belief that the murderer Of Ma
than, of New York, a ut present an
inmate Of our State P~rison-having
arrived in Nevada and been convicted
of crime and incarcerated since the
celebrated New York murder was
committed. We doubt the correctness
of the gentleman's belief, although
one of the Verdi car robbers was re-
Gently from the East. The New York
detectives seem to have settled down
into the belief that Forester murdered
Nathan: but Forester may be in the
Nevada State Prison for what we or
the officers know. The telegraph in
forms us that this ubiquitous Forester
was in Memphis only three weeks ago,
from which place he disappeared sim
ultaneously with the advent of detcc-
tive. who was looking for him. He is
said to have remarked, before leaving
Memphis that ii 4 pardon was pro-
cured for the twelve years uncNpired
service he owed in the Illinois Peni-
Tertiary. he would deliver himself up
OIL the Nathan charge, rs he had no
fears of the result Of the trial. But
this statement is improbable. If he Is
in our State Prison, the New York de-
t~ectivss may rest assured that he is
safe from further moleStation from
outside parties.
VIRGINIA AND TRUCHEE RAILROAD.
Active preparations are at present
being made to complete local rail-
road through to Reno from Carson, by

ton rs soon rs possiblci rs n construc-

of the proposed narrow-gauSc railroad
between Virginia and Reno.
HARD HEARrED.-A poor Chinaman,
sadly afflicted with rheumatism, who
has been unable to work or do any
kind of labor, and who has been living
in the Chinese gambling house q few
doors below Odd Fellows Hall, Gold
Hill, was forcibly elected from the
premises some days ago, and left to
perish from cold and hunger in his
helpless condition. lie crawled under
Il house not far OIL, where he slept for
several nights, with scarcely anything
10 eat or drink, and with but scanty
bcd-clothing. Fortunately, Constable
Thomas Harkin heard of the case yes
tcrday. and had the poor fellow pro-
| vided for until this morning. He Is to
be taken to the County Hospital for
treatment. The nights have been very
cold for 4 week past, and it IS SUR
prising that the poor creature did not
freeze TO death.
