Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1871-02-25

morning the rock coming from the
drift south into the old Holmes ground,
belonging to the Imperial Company,
shows more or less traces OF good ore,
and very good indications Of near
proximity to n good pay Of ore. Flu
ture developments in the Imperial
mine will be looked forward to with
interest, as Of the highest importance
to the prospects of all the mines OF
that particular vicinity, as we'll as the
Gold Hill mines. The Chollar-Potosi
continues its regular yield Of about
800 tons per day, of excellent paying
ore, principally from the Belvidere
section, which will hold out for several
months yet. to say the least. The con-
seuuent bullion product Of this mine is
simply enormous. The ore breasts OF
the Hale & Norcross also look and
Weld well, the south portion of the
lowest level especially. At that depth
1900 feet from the surface-there Is
very little water to contend with, al
most none in fact, and the ore is
of a very hard and compact character.
The daily yield of the mine is over 2OO
tons per day. Nothing new to report
IN the Savage, Gould & Curry or the
| Ophir, except, perhaps, the assessment
of $l2 so per share just leved OH the
| Gould & Curry. The yield Of this
mine has fallen off very much, and be-
come very small of late, consequently
the bullion product would not near
pay the expenses of ore extraction and
the extensive prospecting operations,
therefore this assessment had to be re-
sorted to. Ii will amount to $4,000,
sufficient to run the mine several
months, and meanwhile developments
of good ore may confidently be eX-
pected. Annual meetings are an
nounced to take place as follows
Hale IL NorcroSS, March Sth; Vir-
ginia Consolidated, March nth.
PrER's OrERA HoUsE.-A particu-
larly lively and highly amusing enter
tainment was given last evening to a
very good and appreciative audience,
the improved weather inducing a much
better attendance Of ladies in the dress
circle. One Of the most laughable
farces imaginable was given by way OF
a starter. 1t is well entitled Il Regular
Fir, for everything was mixed in q
most whimsical manner throughout,
keeping the entire audience in n roar
of laughter. Rankin did up the char
acter of "Hugh dc Bras" in capital
STYLE, and no mistake. The Field Of
he Cloth Of Gold, a very droll and
lively burlesque, followed. 1t IS re-
plete with an immense variety OF fun
and general whimsicality, and was
very Satisfactorily rendered through
out, Miss Kitty Blanchard appearing
as lord Darnley," supported by the
entire effective force of the COM
many except Mr.. Rankin, who was
not required. The songs, music
| and choruses of the piece were
| given in very effective style, and so
Also were the various dances. The
plot of the piece is like most other bur
| iesrues, rather mixed, and it contains
some very excellent rs we'll rs some
e~Nasperating puns. The dresses We're
very pretty, and the scenery good and
well managed. Miss Alicia Mande-
vile made her first appearance, per-
sonating Ann Bolyn" in very &C
ceptable style. She is a pretty actress,
as we'll Is 4 good one and a faVorlte:
Miss Fanny Young, rs Constance, ,
made a decided hit in her "granG
medley song and dance, giving 1t al
due expression and vim. "Queer
Kotbsrinen was we'll p~ersonated BY
Mrs. Sinclair. Miss Maggie Moore ap'
peared to excellent advantage q;
..Sufolk," and the other character:
were generally we'll personated, even
to the rather indefinite one sustained
by the diminutive little Miss Darling,
who contrived to pick up numerou:
hatf-dollars for her share in the fun
This evening Mr.. Rankin will appear
in his great speciality Of Rip Van
UInkle, sustained by an excellent cast
previous to which will be given thu
iaughable farce entitled Our Gal. Thu
fine bill calls for \ crowded house.
