Every seat and all; the available
space for standing room was occupied
last night at Bigelow's Hall by an au-
dience gathered to witness the first ap-
pearance Of Colonel Woods Opera
Troupe. The performance was some
thing new to Eureka; a variety enter
tainment, refined in it's nature, and in
finitely more preferable to an audience
than have to pay their money to see a
company wade and struggle through a
nve act play i'll u u that canses
dead and gone playwrights to roll 10
agony in their narrow tombs. The
performance last night was far above
that of the general II of companies
which visit the mining towns of the
interior, and ii the troupe follow it up
it will meet with a deserved success.
The first part consisted OF a parlor
minstrel entertainment, which was ex-
ceptionally good, and was followed by
a miscellaneous programme, introduce
ing a number OF first-class artists with
their s~pecialties, all Of which were
loudly appiauded and repetitions de.
marded. In these selections Mr.. +.
Leauhodny introduced his novel per-
Torrance of the musical glasses ard
the Zetta solo. SO great was the rush
for seats that the ticket office had TO be
closed before the curtain was rung up,
and v g one hundred people were
turned away. The opening night was
a decided success. Tonight a change
of bill will be made. Seats can be Sc
cered at the ball during the day.

should BE attended To.

Tho stream of water running down
Bateman street to the big ditch is play
ing sad havoc with that portion of the
street forming the bank Of the ditch at
the intersection of Spring street. The
water has washed away considerable
ground already, and II allowed to con-
tinue in this way 1t will take a consid-
cradle sum of money to repair the
damage. The bridge built by the
county last summer is in danger, and
II will take but a short time to wash
away its support entirely unless some.
thing is done to remedy the evil.

Piochc, MamiIton and Eureka ..
f.urekM Foundry.

There has been a rush of work at
tbs foundry for the past two weeks,
and since the breakdown at the Rich
mond works the establishment has
run days and night. It's great benefit
to the community is illustrated by the
fact that their ability TO do the work
saved a two weeks suspension at
the furnaces, a necessity that would
have followed if the company had
been forced to have their repairs done
abroad. A new cylinder. head and
other portions Of the machinery were
east, and competent judges pronounce
the work equal 10 any turned out 10
San Francisco. The foundry has .
reputation second to none la tho State,
n In consequence Is never idle.

To.day's Battle.

We last evening received the follow
ing telegram from Carson: "The Min.
eral Hill fight comes off tomorrow in
the House. The Eureka delegation
rely confidently on IS votes, and are
working like beavers. Elko has a form
liable delegation here, including
Street, Postmaster Stone and ex Sheriff
Brown, who are working in the lobby
against the bill" BY the above it
would seem that Eureka has a sure
thing of gaining as easy a victory in
the Assembly as the bill me. with in
the Senate. Should thirty-five vote
be given in favor Of the bill, it will
have been passed by a two-third votes
of both branches OF the Legislature,
in ths face of which His Excellency,
Governor Bradley, would not veto the
bill If even inclined to do 80. 1t looks
very much as though somebody would
be bulldosed before the setting Of the
sun to-day.

PEN AND KS.

The Virginia Chronicle notes the ar
rival in Virginia of the private police
man who was believed to be the in
stigator of the Chinese wars The
Chronicle says:
VIM. Bamfield, the supposed white
ally of Sam Sing during the former
bloody disturbances in Chinatown, who
was warned by the Home Protectors
to leave the city for his own and the
tured back, though secretly, and for
several nights past has been observed
on the corner opposite Sam Sings es-
tablishment, armed with a shotgun
aud evidently prepared for q muss.
Several prominent members OF the
Home Protectors have been notified of
his presence, and cautioned that he
means mischief towards them. He
does not show himself about during
the daytime, has no recognized resi-.
dence in this city, and no visible
means of support. He Is evidently a
good man for the police to Keep their
eyes upon.
From the Reno Journal we take the
following item concerning Pyramid
Lake district: heoW
The Pyramid G. as. M. Company will
commence prosecuting in a few days,
and Superintendent Jones will 20 there
tomorrow to watch the result. The
coln pany is now down with its shaft
40 feet, and the cross-cut will be run
from the l0O-fo loot level, and is expect
cd to cut the vein within a few feet, as
the bottom of the shaft is now in ledge
matter. After attaining a depth of 40
feet, where q body of good ore three
feet in length was left, 1t was sunk on
the hanging wall, it being almost per-
pendicular.

d The heart Of the Chinaman is again
made happy. The four Celestia!s ar
rested last week by Sheriff Sias for
running q gambling game without a
license, were yesterday liberated and
last night were again privileged to
while away the hours in the uncer-
tairties of "Tan." A day or two after
the Sheriff and his deputies ''pulled"
the moon'eyed sports they had an ex-
animation before Justice Cromer, who
bound the quartette over to await the
action of the Grand Jury. The re-
lease was made In consideration of the
offenders taking out a gambling IL
cense for three months and paying all
costs incurred in the proceedings had
against them, amounting in all to
1851. One cause Of the difficulty was
that the proprietors of the game, num-
bering about a score, could not under
stand the intricacies of the law that
compelled a Chinaman to paw a gam
bling license in Nevada while it was
not required in California. They also
thought that Sam Bell was the duly
authorized collector, ignoring the
trifing fact of an election having been
held and new officers in possession
OF the Sheriff's office. The license
granted to them yesterday partic-
ularly described the premises where
tie game is to be dealt and
the location of the house, which
adjOins the Hong Lee store. This is
done to prevent the "Heathen Chinee"
from transferring the license to another
house and allowing all Chinatown to
deal under its protection. There will
probably be no more trouble
ing Chinese gaming licenses.

Tommy Kelly Convicted.

From our Reno exchanges we learn
that Tommy Kelly, who resided in
Eureka several years, has been con
victed in the District Court at that
place of murder in the second degree,
for killing John Pagan last summer.
The Journal makes Kelly say that the
verdict was better than he expected,
and Kelly, in the Gazette, denies ever
making such a remark. Tommy has
now a gloomy lie before him.
