gang OF Cinnamon lett u CITY ON
Sunday, via the Virginia and Truckee
Railroad, for California. Superintcnd-
ent Ierington, of the railroad, not feel
ing disposed to quarter these turbulent
Celestials upon our neighbors of Nir-
GINA. made them agree to 20 on To
California, rs a pledge precedent TO
their free transportation over his road.
IL seems that Il Chinese law compels
an employer to feed and quarter,
gratis, all hands in his employ until
he shall have settled with them in
full. Quong Wing having failed on
his wood contract last summer, was
unable 10 pay his men oil, and. in obe-
dicnce 10 this Chinese law, has been
feeding about one hundred of his
countrymen ever since. This, of
course, has absorbed several thousand
dollars-all he had-and left him less
able To pay than If his late employees
had sought employment elsewhere at
the time of the failure.
CARSON THEArER.-"The Hidden
Hand - drew a good house last even
ing-the boys in the rear enjoying the
play hugely. As a drama the piece
has no merit, and yet is full of strik-
ing but unnatural incidents. No fault
could be found with the of its
production. Walter Leman as Old
Hurricane, George IIincklcv as Black
Donald, T.. :. Marble as Wool. and
Miss Sue Robinson as C%apitola. were
cast to characters susceptible of a
higher display Of talent than the 9TH
erS-ihat was all. 1.-THE Hidden
Hand j. a harmless sort of play, and
one not calculated 10 arouse the pas
sions so powerfully rs it, name would
seem To indicate. This evening "Thc
Colleen Hawn" will be presented, with
its fine sentiment, sweet songs and
truthful representation Of human pas
sion and everyday life in Ireland.

Phil. ample relief, could he get il
throughput owing to the fact that
the bill has been straddled by .

doubtful If he can get il through. Tn,
bill has a ii~h-hOok mt The end, but a,

SPEAKER PRO TEM.-Thomas J. Te
nsnt, of White Pine county, was "
teaday elected Speaker pro tenn. of q
Assembly for the session, without o
