The Virginia Chronicle is response
BILE for the following:
Judge Knox suffers from some of the
in ,~onveniences OF greatness. He can't
hire lodgings for less than double the
rent paid by common mortals. The
reason for this is that his his Honor is
an uncomfortable n~uisance-not personal
ly, tut officially considered. 1t is bad
enough to have a doctor for a iodger,
but a Justice of the Peace Is infinitely
worse. If all eager couple get it into
their heads about midnight that it is
Impossible to wait any longer, they
trot off to Judge Knox, wake him up,
AMI get him to tie the knot whether he
likes it or not. If some kind husband
thinks it good for his wife to take a
stroll at 3 O'Clock in the morning,
with a black eve for company, she
shakes up the Judge and demands a
warrant. Gentlemen who fall to
blows in saloons after the rest of the
town has gone to bed, disturb his Hon.
or with counter complaints. As every
body doesn't know the exact location
of the Judges habitation, it follows
that the whole neighborhood shares in
the attention which are paid him. He
lives on the east side of b street now,
near the corner of Union, next to the
house on the door of which the follow
ing NOTICES are tackled.
NOTICES:
No rooms to let. Judge Knox does
not live here.
N. B.-Any person inquiring fol
Judge Knox after this notice will be
shot. Take fair warning. BY order OF
TENANTS UP STAIRS.
Under the above:
NoTICE:
Positively no Don to let. Judge
Knox lives next door. Any old bum
or wandering vagabond who comes
up here to inquire for Judge Knox
will be- shot and boiled in oil. By or.
der, REMAINING TENANTS.
The Gold Hill News saws: 1t nav
be safely alleged that times ars getting
pretty hard with the petty thieves d
Virginia City. Yesterday between 1.
and 2 o'clock one of these light-fin
gered gentlemen entered a room or
Washington street. occupied by two
printers, and surreptitiously and felO
niously abstracted therefrom 81 and a
pair of breaches. Such a thing was
never heard of before. A printer with
81 in silver on Sunday morning il
something new. Such an instance is
not recorded either in sacred or pro
fame history. The Trunk from which
the silver was taken also contained SS(
in gold and $500 worth of mining
stock. The gold had been thrown il
carelessly, and by acciden. had slipped
under the tray or false bottom of thu
trunk, and so was not fonnd. The
mining stock was probably considered
dangerous property to tackle, and was
not disturbed.
On Saturday night, saysthe Virgins
Chronicle, the water was turned on IL
the new city mains. and yesterday
their efficacy was tested. Two so. foo
lengths OF carboliZed hose We're attached
to the hydrant at the corner of & ane
Taylor streets, and streams wer,
thrown north and south through n
inch nozzies. To the south a heav,
stream was thrown as far as the middi,
of the Odd Fellows bull ling, a distanc,
of about $50 feet, and that on the nortl
was equally strong. After this trial
which was Witnessed with enthusiasm
by the large crowd hat had collected
the lengths were coupled and on,
stream thrown to the south a distanc,
of over 200 feet. 1t took twelve men L

stream vas turned on John Gillig'
flagstaff, and easily cleared the ball
a vertical height OF 100 feet. The ties
was perfectly satisfactory in every res
pact. The sfeadiness of the play ex
cited the admiration Of old firemel
and the heart of the property ho,de
was made glad. When the works ar
