Carelessness.-We on Thursday
noticed a heap of hot ashes and live
Goals smouldering just outside of the
fence in the alley-way back Of our
office. The amount of combustible
material at all times in the alley
renders the emptyiDg of live Goals
there extremely careless and very
dangerous to the safety of the town.
This is the second time we have
called attention to this careless prac-
tice, and we hope those in authority
will take some pains to ascertain
who INDUCES in these chances Of
burning up the town. We do not
know how it is, but recommend
that the guilty ones be looked after.
Prof J. g. Cromwell, our Tahoe
correspondent, put in an appearance
at our sanctum on Thursday, having
returned from the Lake on business.
He is stalwart and bronzed as the
Jealous Moor" has gained IL
pounds a week since his departure,
and now weighs ton. He reports
the Silver City party as nursing
lot of peeled noses, but in high glee
and good health. Mr.. G. speaks en-
Enthusiastically of the lunch spread
and comfort afforded at the Glen
brook House, and recommends Col.
Vesey to the patronage Of the public.
The Professor departed for Tahoe
this morning.
We are placed under obligations to
the Invitation Committee of the
Grand Carnival Ball, which is to oc.

grand affair.
WHY IS IT?-Why is it that eve-
rybody goes to the Metropolitan boot
and shoe store, No lO8 South G street?
1t is because they can get boots and
shoes cheaper and better than in any
store in the State. C. A. Noltemeier

sprightly contemporary all the sue
cess possible for a we'll regulated
newspaper to attain. We judge
from the following items taken
from its local columns, that the

cially devoted to the dissemination

THE HoOLEY COMEDY COMPANY
The San Francisco " Figaro has
this to say of the company who are
to appear at Piper's Opera House
tomorrow evening. In noticing
the play of Ultimo " it says;
Ultimo entered on it's third
week last night with every appear
ance of new lease Of life. The
house was crowded and the audi
ence--composed mainly OF brokers
and operators, by the bye-showed
unmistakable signs of thoroughly
enjoying the humor and eccentrici-
ty of the piece. OF the two scenes.
that in the Stock Board is decided
ly the better. The set of the two
rooms, with the Succor Mining
Company in the one and the
doctors Office in the other. some
what detracts from the effect of the
scene in the latter, which was al
ways one of the features of the
play. The Stock Board scene was
excellently managed. and brought
a most decided recall.
The rush for seats on Monday
night will be great, and we advise
our patrons to apply early if they
would witness the first perform
ance of The Big Bonanza.
A DAUGHTER.-The congratula-
tons of the TIMES office is hereby
extended to our job printing friend,
John A. Mahanny, Esq. of Virginia,
whose household was blessed on the
30th of June with the arrival of q
little daughter. The wee maiden
is of the "antique" pattern, "non-
pareil" in appearance, "full-face"
and "two-pick and that last is
what makes John "out of Sorts"
though foolish many he has the
"foundry" still left to order from.
To one who has never before "pied
a form" il seems that any kind of a
"make.up' should be acceptable.
May her "lines" fall in pleasant
places, and Mahanny's "proof sheet"
be followed by many more good
"Jobs."

New COURTROOM. - Our city,
.,b;cb has so long suffered the in
convenience of having no proper
building for the use of the Justices
Conrt is now to have a substantial
and spacious room for that purpose.
The building which is now being
erected on Gay street, on the va
cant lot next to the Catholic Chapel,
owned by Mr.. Claus Becker, will
he 16 by "a feet, one story, and
finished in workmanlike manner.
We do not understand that the
Comfy Commissioners have au-
tborized the construction of the
building, but that the enterprise
has been set in motion by Mr..
Becker and the officers of the
Court, who are each personally en-
gagged in its erection. We suppose
that the project, the contamination
of which is a necessity to the town,
will be assisted by the Board of
Commissioners, as is right and
proper, though no guarantee has
been made. The location is a good
one, and will be much better than
the back part of saloon for the
purpose intended. For want Of q
better place, Justice Gould has
heretofore been compelled to hear
most of the cases coming under his
Jurisdiction in the rear end of the
Oasis Saloon, which interferes with
the business of the Court as well as
the saloon. The new building will
be ready for occupancy in about
fv edays.

ladder of Montana, and now occu.
pies the proudest position In the
Montana newspaper fraternity. We
do not exactly comprehend the
.inimus OF this "new departure" from
an old and often expressed princi-
pie in business, but we are satisfied
that whatever it is, it is Wright, and
that the new Ella-ment thus brought
into play to enhance the future pros
perity of the Captains most excel
lent paper, is one that will not tail
of being noticed in the "issues" to
come. Having set the first stick OF
type for the NeW North Vest, and
for years taken an active interest in
its success, the associate of the TIMES,
may be excused tor flinging his
compliments away over into the

THE FUTURE
OF the vein, and shall be disappoint-
ed if another so feet downward does
not leave behind the broken forma-
ton and cut solid body of the
brown, rich ore, which in many
places makes its appearance. The
purity of the vein has constantly in
creased since the winze has been
started, and there is every reason for
believing that it will still continue.
THE ROCK,
AS a general thing, requires consid-
cradle blasting, and its excavation is
attended with labor enough to make
its development of an interesting
character to those employed. Super
intendent Eagan is a man of expe-
rience, energetic and thorough, and
seems to exactly comprehend the sit
uation and what the mine requires ;
while foreman Brannan is so well
known AS miner that it would be
superhuous to say that he is COM
petent and intelligent aid. 1t will be
several months yet before
THE MACHINERY
Is placed on the lead, and meanwhile
the tunnel and Wine will be put for
ward with vigor and regularity
With the competent management
now afforded the work, and the natu-
raj advantages possessed, we believe
the Cosmopolitan can soon be
brought to the front rank of the
mines on the lower end of the Com
stock, and shall wait confidently for
this result.

Chadwick, the proprietor of Chadwick
Museum. was arrested last night on a
charge of numbering his wife. The at
tending physician decided that death
was caused by pneumonia, but owing to
rumor that she died from wound in
fiicted by her husband while drunk, the
Coroner held an investigation, which re-
suited in the arrest of Chadwick, who
was taken into custody while looking at
the corpse.
NEW YORK, May 6. - The Courtroom
in which the scandal trial is proceeding
was as full this morning as at any time
almost when Tilton. Moulton or Beecher
was on the stand. The defendant and
his wife were in their usual places, in
the van OF the Plymouth Church party.
Henry G. Bowen took the witness
chair and his examination was
continued by Fullerton. He testified:
saw Beecher ever Sabbath prior to the
18th OF December, 70; Tilton and his
affairs may have been the subject of con-
versation between us on the LIST of Janu-
airy, II; I told Beecher of my intention
to dismiss Tilton from my paper; called
at Beecher's house on the evening of the
day that saw Beecher at Deacon Free
lands and saw Mrs. Beecher--her hus-
band was not present; did not replv to
beecher's letter of January 3D. Fuller
ton read passages from the letter and
questioned witness as to the story 10
which Beecher alluded.
A great futter of excitement followed
the calling of Henry G. Bowen as a wit.
ness in the Beecher-Tilton trial yester.
day and Bowen himself showed consider.
able mental agitation. The first aues-
ton going to the impeachment of
Beeeher was whether the defendant ever
did speak to him (Bowen) to influence
him in discharging Tilton from his en-
ployment. After short, sharp wranple
the answer WAS given never" and some
sensation followed. The defendant
lawyers were all agog, Mrs. Beecher put
her glasses on and took notes, Tilton
was pale with anxiety, Moulton per-
splred profusely, and all hands were con-
slderaby walked up. After witness had
begun to relate his interview with
Beecher the night the famous note
was delivered, calling on him to abandon
his pulpit. opinion began to grow con-
fused, and for moment the thought was
upper-most in many minds that Bowen
would turn out witness for Beecher.
Shortly after witness contradicted
Beecher's testimony in several points.
He was asked if he received letter from
beecher in January, 1871? II think 1
have, was the answer that revealed the
caution of the witness,
