Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1873-02-26

THEATER.-As we anticipated in yes.
terday's Issue, last night the house was
crowded in all parts, several having to
90 away who wanted front seats and had
not secured them through the day. The
play of "Frou Frou" is decidedly the
most attractive that has yet been placed
on the stage, both for its intrinsic merit,
regarding plot, etc, as we'll as display of
elegant toilets-Mrs. Bates having
changed dresses for every act of the
play. The portrayal of the light, giddy,
frivolous woman of fashion in the first
two acts, of the same character, after
falling from her high sphere through i'm
agined wrong from both her husband
and sister, then of her sojourn at Ven-
Ice and her return to her dishonored
home, were each and all worked out
with the light and shade of finished
artistic. Space prevents notice of other
characters until our next issue. All did
exceedingly well, and "Frou Frou" will
have another crowded house tonight,
which will be the last appearance of the
distinguished artists, Mr.. and Mrs. Bates.
We are informed that Manager Mcguire
has made very liberal offers to induce
these celebrities to play another two
weeks engagement; we trust he will be
successful in his efforts to retain them,
and i'll saying SO much we only express
the public desire.
HOSE HOUSE NEEDED.-Ths hose and
hose carriage purchased by the citizens,
of Phoebe, which cost about $1,000, are,
we notice, lying out exposed to the
weather. True, there is sort of roof
over them, but that amounts to nothing
in Phoebe storms, when the winds cause
the snow and rain to scud along the sur
face of the earth as frequently as they
descend from the clouds. And tn 3 roof,
any way, is not waterproof. A few
months more of such exposure will ut
terly ruin the hose, and greatly injure
the carriage. Cannot the County Com
missioners provide house in which they
would be kept dry and secure? We
would suggest that the two fire companies
unite in q petition for an appropria-
ton to the Fire Department sufficient to
build house on the lot belonging to the
department.
New EDITORIAL RooM.-We are now
in our new editorial room, and feel prop
erly jubilant thereat. Within this neat
and cosy retreat we shall be glad, at all
times, to meet our friends and work up
for publication such information in re-
gard to the country's development and
the general progress of events as they
may favor us with. Friends from the
neighboring districts are especially in
vited to call on us when they visit the
city. Everybody is welcome but habitu-
al loafers, the presence of whom can
be tolerated most anywhere else better
than in an editorial room.
IT is not true that Phoebe man sent a
thermometer down TO Bullionville, yes.
torday morning, to show a warm-weather.
enervated fellow down there how cold il
was up here. The story is pronounced IA
hoax by the man who bought the instru-
ment. He didn't send it because ht
found, when he took it in by his big stove
that sit wouldn't run regularly"
ASH WEpNEsDAY.-To, day being Ash

tional meeting each Wednesday evening

Carson City, is fast becoming favorit,

sion. DR.. Lee is good physician ani
