The SKATING MANIA. "A perfect
mania for going it OH roller or parlor
skates now RACES among our Virginia
neighbors, and the Kinks In that city
are crowded daily and nightly with
gleeful parties of skaters. VIM. Hy:
Doane has both the National Guard
and Armory halls running in full blast
rs skating Kinks, and we are fortunate
or unfortunate in the receipt Of COM
plimentary passes to both places. We
notice that many Of the ladies have
become most gracefully proficient In
the exhilarating and healthy accom-
plishment. They don't tumble half so
often rs the gents, either. We propose
trying Oh these skates, If we die for 1t.
We notice that Crosby, Johnny Noe,
nor any of the rest of them, don't
mind Il few sprained wrists and elbows,
and why should We? All other styles
of locomotion are tame compared with
roller skating. It's the greatest fun
out.
DELIVERY OF PRIzEs.-The drawing
of the Nevada lottery was concluded
evening before last. The Transcript
says: "Tlie prizes will not be deliv-
cred until the official lists are printed.
and then they will be delivered to
parties either in person or by express,
who present or send tickets entitled to
prizes. The money prizes, on examin-
alton and comparison Of the ticket
with the stub at the office Of the Com
pany, will be paid at the Bank Of Ne
vada County upon order. The print
ing of the official list will probably
require n week or ten days. The draw
ing has been conducted with great fair
ness, the members of the committee
being in constant attendance, except
during the intervals when the drawing
was not in progress. At such times
the wheels were in charge Of the watch
man selected BY citizens"

GONE WITH HER FNTHER.-Some
anonymous irresponsible, Endorsed by
tho reporter of the Enterprise, In that
paper this morning overwhelmingly at
tempts to pick an unimportant flaw or
two in our item Of yesterday, relative
to that young Jewish girl who LEFT
with her father for California, evening
before last, on the stage. We did not
discuss the merits Of the case, neither
