somely coiiined, aud during the day
numbers OF people called to take last
look upon the features OF one who week
ago was in good health, and then had ap-
parently as long lease OF life MS any of
us. But how frail is the thread by which
lie Is suspended. Under any circum-
stances We can claim nothing of the future,
and IN community like this, where no
regard is paid to human life, people have
not only the ordinary ills that flesh is
heir to, but are in danger of death from
yiolence at the hands of some rufiiau.
There was large attendance at the fu-
neral of Mr.. Lynch, affording an evidence
OF the esteem in which he was held, and
OF the public sympathy for his family in
view OF the great calamity which has
overtaken them. The solemn and i'm
pressive Episcopal service was read at,
the grave by Rev. Henry L. Badger.
The last sad rites have been celebrated.
and the remains OF the deceased repose
IN the tomb at the cemetery, where so
many who have died by violence now
await the sounding of the last trump.
THEATEr.-The thrilling 4.act drama
of Jack sheppard was presented last
night for the first time in this city. The
play his, high reputation wherever the
English drama is known. The an
nouncement that it would be presented
last night was OF itself enough to ill the
house. The large audience present were
Kept IN roar of laughter by Carrie
Carriers perfect representation of the
rowdy Jack Sheppard, who is the hero
OF the play. Bella Bird made a capital
Thames Darrell. Dora Lorraine define.

very prettily; and the part of Sally was
well rendered by Lizzie Davenport.
Bird, Thorne. Dudley and Mcguire
showed a familiarity with the entire plot

About 10 o'clock yesterday morning
man stepped into Charley Strums
saloon, ON Meadow Valley street, and
soon after became handy with his six
shooter. In fiourishine the weapon an
explosion followed. The ball from the
pistol passed through the arm of chair
and into the wall. 1t is supposed to
have lodged in the wall Of Lynch's chop
house. Some people will never learn that
a pistol is a deadly weapon; they play
with such thing as child would play
with toy. The offender was subse.

plead guilty to charge of disturbing the
peace, and there the matter ends.
GEGow's SALooS-BowL1NG ALLEY
The saloon of G. C. Gerow, on Meadow
Valley street, is celebrated for the supe-
rior quality of the liquors dispensed as
for punches and mixed drinks it surely
is not surpassed by any saloon in town.

be passed any day or evening.
Ice AT CHEAPER RATEs.--We under,
stand that Jot Travis is willing to furnish
ice at nine cents pound. Here is a
chance for people to save some coin, and
at the same time break down the ice

Ger OF consumers will form combina-
ton for their own protection. Ice can
be furnished here for nine cents pound,
and consumers should act at once.

O'Clock last night fire broke out in a
cabin above McCannon street, directly

aid OF the tiremen, although the Hooks
and the Hose both responded at the first
tap of the bell
YESTERDAY We received note from
John Q. A. Smith, enclosing the original
communication sent to the Eureka Sem
