Our citizens are assured a novel and
unexpected pleasure in the way of an
art exhibition, alluded to in yester
days issue. Mr.. Levy has unpacked
and hung upon the walls of Masonic
Hall a collection of m%eritorious paint
ings, from the easels of a number of
European and American artists, and
invites the presence of those who are
interested or appreciate the fine arts.
The gallery comprises many gems,
aud includes beautiful landscapes, in
terror views, studies of game and figure
sketches. Some of the pictures are
charming bits of color and betray a
skillful brush. The paintings will be
ready for inspection and can be seen
on Monday, day and evening; Tues
day, during the day, and Wednesday,
day and evening; and the sale will take
place Friday and Saturday. The public
are cordially invited to call at the hall
during that time. The ladies, es-
pecially, will find it a delightful place
10 while away an hour pleasantly.

Works Satisfactorily.

The telephone instruments were con.
nected with the Richmond wire yes
terday morning, and a series of tests
made by the superintendent and 9th
ers. 1t was found to work to a charm,
conversation being carried on plainly
and distinctly between the two points.
The enterprise is a practical illustra'
ton of the benefits to he derived from
this wonderful invention. AS far as
communication is concerned, distance
is annihilated, and orders a be given
from the main office in Eureka TO the
foreman and employees at the Hill
without the necessity of travelling be-
tween mine and works. 1t is probable
that the Eureka Consolidated will.
adopt the same method shortly.

The jewellers in a house on South
Buel street have been annoyed for
some time past by the prevalence of
mysterious and unaccountable noises
during the night. Rsppings. CONVEX
sation carried on in an uncouth and
unknown tongue, unmistakable snor-
ing, and other sounds, have disturbed
the rest Of the occupants, and patient
search for their origin failed to reveal
the source. The female portion of the
family declared the promises haunted,
and were gravely considering the pro-
priety of moving when the mystery
was finally solved. The building sets
up on posts from the ground about
five feet, and the sides are boarded up
to the floor. One of these boards had
been fixed so that it could he removed
at pleasure, and a number of Sho-
shones had established their head
quarters underneath the house. 1t
was quite an eligible and cosy retreat
for them; but they have been routed
out, and since then the sounds have
ceased to annoy the residents of the
structure.

He was considerably bruised and cut

time. Assistance was rendered by his
partners, and he was hoisted safely to
the surface and brought to Town. DR..
Bishop was called, and dressed his
wounds. No bones being broken, he
will be able to resume work in a few
days. The shaft is 100 feet deep. and il
was lucky that the accident occurred
as it did. Had he reached a greater

Opera House.

The Opera House was partially filled
last evening by an appreciative audi
ence. The picnic, and unfinished state
of the theater, combined to keep a
great many away, but those present
enjoyed the entertainment. The per
formers possess considerable dramatic
talent, and Commodore Mutt as roodles
Wa immense. The programme last
evening was light, sketchy, and very
amusing. A similar bill will be pre-
scented this evening, and Monday night
the sensation of "Arouud the World

troupe is n very meritorious one, and
deserves a liberal patronage.

RICmMOND CONSOLIDATED.
The Present Satisfactory Condition
of the Property.

OF the Property.
The following statement of the pres
ent condition of the Richmond Com.
pany is taken from the London Mining
Journal:
The directors have declared q divid-
eud of IS. Cd. per share. The furnaces
which were started on September 5th
continue in good working order, smelt-
ing weekly upwards of 1000 tons of
ore. 1t is not intended to shut them
down for some time, as in consequence
of their good condition and the facili-
ties afforded by the railway for the con-
veyance OF ore and fuel. it is not nec-
essary to do so. The accounts for the
pastyear have been made u E I Eureka,
and are expected to be received in Lon
don in the cours of a few days, after
which the yearly balance sheet will be
prepared and submitted to the share.
holders as o as possible. Since the
starting of the furnaces the directors
have paid 10000. in dividends, and
l2.S00l. on account of d~ebentures; and
pending the preparation of the balance
sheet showing actual ~realiZations, the
directors consider it al advisable to divide
only Is. Cd. per share, leaving the sur
plus to be dealt with hereafter. The
reports from the mine as to the devel-
opments continue to be most satisfac-
tory. Although the reserves of ore
have been so largely drawn upon since
the starting Of the furnaces in Septem-
Der last, the quantity in sight is as great
as ever. Explorations have been car
ried on energetically, as shown by the
weekly letters of the manager; and be-
tween the 200 and 400 foot levels large
bodies of high grade ore have been
opened out. The directors are in
formed that the report of the Commit
tee of investigation is in the hands of
the printer. and that it will be forward.

lay as possible.
