A lively row occurred in Chinatown
about $3.50 o'clock last evening. AS
near as we can learn, it was all about
fair Celestial damsel. In the fracas,
one Chinaman drew a revolver and
shot another, inflicting a wound in
the leg, and afterwards striking the
wounded man over the head with his
weapon. Officer Thomas was promptly
ON the scene of action, when the bel
lcose Mongolian fired two shots at
him and made off to parts unknown.
Soon after, Chief Carrillo and officer
Dobson made their appearance and,
after a diligent search, succeeded in
arresting a man whom they found con-
cealed in an out-of-the-way room, and
who was identified as the guilty party
by those who Witnessed the affair. The
fellow gave his name as Yaing. He
was promptly deposited in the Gala.
boose. The victim of the affray re.
ceived some serious, and perhaps fatal
injuries.

A splendid bill, land presented OH the
occasion of the benefit of q lady who
by her excellent acting and untiring
efforts TO please has contributed much
to the pleasure of our theatre goers.
Turn n-Verein Hall should be crowded
this evening. Of the beneficiary a
few words may be said. Miss Reif-
farth is an actress of acknowledged
ability. While excelling in the per-
sonation of all classes of characters it
is in those requiring display of in
tense feeling-the faithful portrayal
of emotion-that she most excels and
in which she has few equals on the
Pacific Coast. AS "Dora,' Miss Reif-
farth has won the applause of the
most critical of San Francisco audi
ences, and those who see her in this
character this evening will add their
approval to that of the thousands who
have seen her in San Francisco, Sac
ramento, Stockton and other parts of
the State. Mr.. and Mrs. Allen, who
have so kindly volunteered their SER
vices in behalf of Miss Reiffarth's
benefit, are capable and painstaking
artists who, during their two weeks
engagement in this city, have won
hosts of friends both ON and off the
stage. Mr.. Simms We have seen often
in San Francisco, and his visit
here enables us to say that he
is going up in the profession like
rocket, and there is not the least dam
ger of his coming down like the stick.
Our old friend J. B. Robinson is on the
bills. He never was known to refuse
to playfor the benefit ofOne of his profes-
sion and never known to play badly. In
old man characters, Rob. is better
than the old man himself. On this,
the last appearance of the company in
this city, we feel like saying some
thing about Vivian; but as we have
been saying good and true things
about him for years, we find it difficult
to get up one-"ah, hem, yam-on this
Occasion,n and will cut him off with
the single remark that he is brick
none Of your soft, sun-dried adobes,
but regular hard-burned brick, who
always tries to please and always does
please. All these good people will
play this evening for the benefit of
their esteemed cO-worker, and she will
do all in her power to make her bene-
fit an occasion which all shall remem-
ber with satisfaction and pleasure.

Looking back hundred years, And copl Ning the now and then, It seems to Iae that in spite of fears The country has earnest men, AS willing to draw the sword for right, As ready to wield the pen. It seems to me that in field or forge, By river and by Till, In fertile plain and mountain gorge, In city and hamlet, still They live as they did in the days of King
 George,
 Of Concord and Bunker Hill. I do not know that the hands are weak, Or the brain unused 10 plan; That the tongue delays the truth to speak, Or the foot to march in the van; But know full well that we need not seek In vain for Minute Man. se.wsHAsasl There are men to-dlIS :!
