PIpEn's opERA HoUsE-THE "W1z-

sonatlon Oh IN Greek girl, captain OF
the skiff, and the wandering "Zin-
CARO-" Courtaine personated the aged
Greek, Constantine" very we'll In
deed, as did also Cotton "Count Ber-
genoff," Hardie "Wolfo," Barry
"Waddledorf," Sinclair "Michael."
George Hinckley appeared as Gag
nosti," In place Of Mr.. Thayer, and
performed the part commercially. The
ballets and other dances were all finely
given, and the afterpiece, The Stetss
Cottage, was rendered with spirit and
good effect, Hardie personating Cor
poral Max" Barry's "Natz Teik'
vas very amusing, and Miss Maggie
Moore appeared to excellent advantage
rs "Lisette," singing two or three
very pretty songs. The Wi=drd SkiF
will be repeated for positively the last
time this evening, with the Cdrniral Of
Venice by Morlacchi and others, and u
song and dance by Miss Maggie Moore,
in the interlude. The entertainment
will conclude with the very amusing
comic drama of Cool as a Cucumber,
Harry Courtaine appearing in the
famous character Of "Plumper."
BOGUS BEGGAR.-An Italian beggar,
one of the old standard style, with
rueful %countenance and dirty docu-
ument, setting forth that his vineyards
were all destroyed by an eruption Of
Vesuvius, compelling him to beg in a
foreign land to support sick wife and
large family of small children, and
winding up with stating that the
bearer could not speak a word Of En-
glish, IA arrested yesterday after
noon in Gold Hill. Before he was
arrested by officer Newhouse he could
easily speak plenty Of English,
but in court 1t was all "no sabe" with
him. Justice Putnam fined him $40,
which he paid and left town.
WAsHoE COUNTY SEAT.-The a 8 Of
Lewis. Hess, respondent, VS.. Charles
w. Pegg and other officers Of Washoe
county, appellants, argued and sub
mitted in the Supreme Court yester-
day, says the Carson Register, involves
the removal of the county seat from
Washoe City to Reno. The late Leg
~islature passed an Act authorizing such
removal without further ado, but Hess
has enjoined the county officers to pre-
vent the removal of the records. The
case was ably argued by Hayden and
Ellis for appellants, and Clark and
Mesick for respondent. The Court
took q reces till Monday next.
Fox CRY AssEssoR.-In Il adver-
Using columns to-day r. X. Bennett Is
respectfully announced as a candidate
for Assessor Of Virginia City, subject
to the decision of the City Union Re-
publican Convention. Mr.. Bennett is
eminently qualified for the office in
every respect, and during tho past year
has filled that responsible position
with most perfect eticiency-on n or
two occasions the Board of Aldermen
Of that city officially complimenting
him for the correctness OF his assess
ment business. Having been we'll tried
and not found wanting, 1t IS surely
safe enough to try him again.
SUspIcIoUs.-The Enterprise local Of
his morning speaks of a vast amount
of misunderstanding going on in all
parts of the State at the present time,
and adds that .'Gold Hill Is now-suf-
fering from these night marauders on
hen-roostS." Now such is not known
to be the case rs far rs Gold Hill Is
concerned-at any rate, he now makes
it public for the first time. 1t strikes
us, rs we'll rs Constable Harkin, that
the aforesaid local man knows q little
too much about the matter-is too well
posted. Should any Gold Hill chickens
turn up missing, Harkin will know
where to look for them.
xxx PAr-RArED.-Judge D.. DAD
kison, the lofty Fenian Postmaster
General of Virginia City, was in Gold
Hill about noon to-day, prospecting
about. We were told that he had been
served with notice to get up and dust,
by the xxx Committee; hence his
presence in Gold Hill, Anyhow, he
came down here in q cloud OF dust,
and we saw Justice Putnam carefully
following him about, taking frequent
cocktails at his expense preparatory TO
running him out Of Gold Hill. Nasty
was looking happy for an expatriated
man.
Hor LOCKS TRINL--The jury In
the case Of DR.. Hop Lock, for the
murder of Lee King, on trial in the
District Court at Virginia, before
Judge Rising, is completed, and the
trial is progressing to-day. Testimony
for the prosecution is being taken, and
the trial will probably occupy two or
three days-perhaps the balance Of the
week. The Court room Is crowded,
especially with "heathen Chinees,"
and the trial excites much attention.
ADMITTED TO PRAcTIcE.-In the Su-
preme Court, at Carson, yesterday,
George p. Harding, of Douglas county,
was examined and admitted In open
Court to practice in the Courts OF this
State.
Down WITH TIE DUsT.-At about
3 o'clock P. NJ. to-day a light rain COM
menced falling, with a good prospect
of laying the disagreeable dust so
prevalent during the last week or two.
