ATTRACTIONS FOR THE FOURTH.



The Virginia City S'sy, Of last evening
contained the following: Aldermen

Committee wednesday evening BY stating
that he had heard from q reliable source
that the Carson people would have = train
Of twenty cars a, the Virginia depot on
the Fourth Of July, after the procession,
ready to take such Of our people who
wished to go down to the Capital on that
DAY, free Of charge. In conversation with
him after the meeting. he told . Stage ~
porter that he had his thinking cap on.
and would endeavor to devise some means
Of keeping them at home. "Tll tell you
what Two been thinking about" said Jim.
IL don't know but What II would be .
good idea TO expend $500 or $500 10 g1

talking they are going TO have races al
| Carson ON the Fourth. and II we don't set
up something attractive In the way Of
Amusements, well have nobody lett In the
town."
The sporting reporter OF the NEWS
mode.tly submits that he has had consid-
orabls experience in managing such things
and thinks he can offer some valuable sug.
ee.tions. In the first place there must be
an aldermanic foot race. This OF course
will have TO be Q handicap. although the
members are uncommonly well matched
as they stand. Secondly, there must b
sparring matches with blackened gloves
between the officers OF the day In
Guiding the orator and the chaplain. For
the third attraction let IL be announced
that some lady In high social position will
walk a wire rope stretched from the Inter
national Hotel TO the Friedrich HOUSE.
This feature. Of course. need not come on.
II may BE- put on the bill, ~ the circus

people In Virginia City with all their

more than . balloon ascension or . chariot

true plan for success. II those public men
are honest In their professions of wishing
to keep the Comstock people at home on
the lth, let them come boldly 70 the front
and assume the responsibility which It'll
their duty 10 do. In these matters tho
