the residence of Lyman Frisbie was
burrlarized and robbed OF a water
melon, which he AYERS was -four feet
long, and a lot of bread. The burglars
entered by a window, and before leaV-
ing fastened the doors on the inside
by placing chairs under the locks.
Arriving AT home at a late hour, Ly-
man found the doors fastened and sus-
picjoned foul plav. Going to the back
door to try that. he saw a man crawl
ing along the fence at the ack OF the
garden. whereupon Lyman turned o
d]erringer loose in that direction. He
was promptly hailed by an old &C
0~uaintance, who explained the Trick
they had been playing.
SIss.-Gesterday was the hottest day
Of the season in this city. Everything
was sizzling. Thermometers wen up
into the air like kites, and the kissing
and hubbiing of the mercury was
fearful. The mercury reached " IN
the coolest brick house in town. hogs
refused to be cOmforted, because the
water in their favorite wallows along
the principal business street had
~tltltl J.. NhB0htii' Nt'NlNN 80
wings, and even house flies were in
actiye-so oppressive was the heat.
In 4 word, the weather here Yesterday
was hotter than the California am
paign.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES have received
several beautiful II and II ounce APP
piles, of delicious flavor. grown on the
ranch of Justice NJ. w. Wheeler,
seven miles south of Genoa. The
fruit is fully equal in every respect to
any We have ever seen on this coast,
and we learn that the trees are loaded
to the ground. We should not be sur
prised I see, at ne distant day, NeVada
FRUIT. like Nevada beef, super>ede the
productions of california i'll the San
Francisco market.
DRIFTING ABoUT.-Benjamin Edison,
our old Carson friend, is now at Salt
Lake. He writes to Mr.. Ii. 5. Mason
4 lengthy letter concerning his wan
behring's. Mr.. Edison is a very good
man, and is peculiarly adapted, per
sonally and morally, as a dWeIler
among Gods elect. should he con
clude to remain mons the Saints we
NAV expect to near of him as a candl-
date for United States Senator, or as a
rival of the ancient prophet.
CANApIAS.-Of all the languages
.poken in the world, save us from
Canadian French. We were in the
Justices Court yesterday during the
trial of a Canadian French case. Mr..
IepOrte, a genuine and we'll educated
F'renchman, was acting as interpreter,
and a heavy time he had OF it. His
rubicund face was drawn up, his
mouth puckered like a MAJ listening
to the filing of a saw, as the
OF the witnesses were gwen.
FIRST CLASS. UnintenIionally We
did an injustice yesterday to Mr.. LIS.
Greenlaw, Superintendent of Public
instruction for this county, by saying
that his second class certificate as a
teacher was renewed 10y the Board of
School Examiners. Mr.. GreenlaW
has a certificate as a first-class teacher,
and The advancement III education the
children of Empire City have shown
under his teaching would seem To i'll
dictate that he has no superiors in that
line.
SHORT SToP.-Another of these use
tul appendages to the game Of base
ball was found on Wednesday even
ing, in the person of Mr.. James Fraser,
who, eve anxious to forward the in
terestS Ofthe rising generation, kindly
lent his assistance as short stop. He
stopped rather short in the game and
LEFT. under the impression that a base
ball was 4 much heavier article thai
he had previously supposed 1t to be.
OrERATIC. - The Gold Hill News
recommends the people of Carson to
charter a special train on the Virginia
aud Truckee Railroad and attend the
uperatic entertainment of the Agatha
States Troupe on Monday evening
next. Allow us to amend, by recon-
mending the opera troupe to visit
Carson. We will insure them a good
house, and We have a FIRST rate theater
here.
HIS SUCCEssOR.-Lyman Frisbie,
before leaving for the white settle
1nents. turned over his business, good
Wing, who is authorized to settle Ly-
mans bills. collect his rents, etc, dur
ing his absence.
The BALL.-A goodly number of the
AIR and brave of Carson leave this
