ANOTHER CHANCE FOR AN INDIAN
WAR

A short time since the Department of the
Interior at Washington issued an order to re-
move the Indians now peaceably located on
farming lands about 90 miles north of Carlin,
Elko Co, in this State, to Duck Valley, on
the line between Nevada and Idaho Some
years ago this land, which these Indians have
titled and are now working proftably to them
selves, was set apart for this purpose by the
Government. They naturally refuse to go,
and if force is employed to remove them, any
person with ordinary intelligence can foresee
the result of such an impolitic, if not unjust
procedure Governor Kinkead, being ap-
prised of the purpose of the Department of
the Interior, yesterday telegraphed to Secre
tary Schurz, requesting him to suspend action
in the matter until it can be more fully I'M
derstood. If the Secretary takes hasty and
i'll advised steps in this direction, we shall,
beyond peradventure, again be involved in
with our copper colored brethren.

A FUTURE Artistic.

As general rule most families in comfort

children instructed in some branch of musical
science but there are few fathers whose out

Friend, of this city His daughter, Miss
Emma, q Miss in her fourteenth summer, is
really prodigy i'll musical artainments, for
one SO young She has been taking lessons
on the piano for about six years, and the pro-
gress she has made is astounding She con-
zines her practice entirely to classical music,
the most difficult of which she reads prinsa
vista. We heard her play tCujus Amman
from Rossini's Stabat Mater" transcription
by List, and "a "Fantasie Brilliante from Mar
tha," which were rendered in manner super
Tor to their rendition by accepted artists
Her execution is full of expression; she fully
appreciates the sentiment which the music
she plays is intended to convey, and her finger
ing is Incompatible. The young lady's soul
seems to be wrapped up in the study of music,
and, in few years, if the opportunities are
not taken away from her, she will astound the
critical musical world with her accomplish
meuts 1t is to be regretted that Mr.. Friend,
can not be prevailed upon to permit his young
daughter to give private concert at the Opera
House some evening.

"THE MIGHTY DOLLAR"

Mr.. and Mrs. Florence ought to have been
and doubtless were well pleased with their
reception last night at the Carson Opera
| House. The audience was large one and
sufficiently discriminating to appreciate even
the finer points of "The Mighty Dollar. "
The piece is four act comedy, and evidently
the chief aim of the playwright was toillustrate
two prominently offensive types of modern
American character: the ignorant, staggering
but crafty politician, Bardwell Slote, so ar
tistically given by Mr.. Florence, and the
other more recently created character, the
shoddy woman, whose newly acquired wealth
increases her opportunities for making ludl-
crous displays of herself-a well drawn dra
matte picture in the artistic person of Mrs.
Florence. The dialogue of the piece is as
lively as sparkling wine; the wit is never
common place or strained; the satire cuts like
a blade of Damascus; and every act has its
telling situations. "The Mighty Dollar" is
i'll all respects superior to any of the modern
We have never seen better acting than Mr..
Florence gave us last night as the Hon. Bard
we'll Slote. His initiating of'sentences, for
which he Immediately furnishes key. is ali
which promises to be contagious off the stage.
The idea Is not original, however, for some
neutrality-suspicious. it was Lever-has given in
one of his queer creations fellow who colo
quically uses initials but not with the droll
effect that Slote gives them. The widow,
Mrs. Gilfory, as played by Mrs. Florence, is
little if any behind that of Slote in dramatic
merit, and she makes all that is possible to
make out of the character. Mrs. Gilfory is |
not the most lovable of her sex, being the |
{ do Europe" in about ninety days OH a we'll |
filed purse and brain but poorly loaded |
with an Indifferent quality of OlendOrff |
French. Mrs Gilfiory in Mrs. Florence's |
keeping is a wonderfully humorous piece of
acting. The dresses worn last night by this |
lady created envy i'll many female breast and |
approximations in many a male one. The ex-
cellent support of Mr.. and Mrs Florence is
from the California Theater, and embraces
Misses De Forrest and Long, and Messrs,
Thayer, Wilson, Billings, Fitzgerald and other
popular ACTORS and actresses known to the
heater attending people of Carson. The
company, as whole, is decidedly the best we
ever had in this city.
Tonight as farewell gift we are to have
Mr.. Florence as Obenreizer, the Swiss, a
iramatization from the sketch of "No
by Charles Dickens and Wilkie
collins. The character of Obenreizer is as
different from Slote as Virsinius is from
Robert Macaire, and here it is that DIR Flor
'ace shows himself the true artist. Secure

KNIGHTS OF TaE ROAD CAPTURED

Since the highway robbery near Empire a
few nights since Sheriff Hill and officer Dun
can have been indifatigable in their searches

ginia City and captured them in that city late

Jail for safe keeping and brought down here

are Nose Watkins, who was witness in the
Cherry Creek mail robbing case, and John

but the officers feel certain that they have
Gagged the right birds. They will have a pre-
liminary examination before Judge Carey

PLENTY OF DUCKs-Several hunters who
came in from Washoe Lake ON Sunday eve
ming, report that there are great numbers of
nlallard and teal ducks out there the latter
only making their appearance in this vicinity
during the Spring. The teal is the cinnamon
ored head and body, and wings of the most
beautiful green and blue, and the snowiest
white. This duck is most delicious table
bird, and, the hunters say, it is very abund-
ant.
FELL IN FIR Yesterday morning at train
time an unknown man fell in a fit in front
of the depot. A great crowd rushed to the
spot where the man had fallen, and stood
around him ten deep, precluding the posi-
bility of breath of fresh air reaching him.
This morbidly curious crowd would doubt
less be standing there now if the man had
not recovered from his swoon. 1t is astonish-
ing what delight some men take in witness
ing such spectacle
PERsoNAL--Hon. Gabriel Cohn, ex-Sen-
ocratic party in Eko, stopped over here, yes

rates, and as he was about entering certain
house, the front door of which was open, he
found large, fierce looking black dog lying
before it. Not wishing to take any chances,
he cried out "Hallo, here" A lady, who
was in the rear part of the building, heard
him, and without looking up, replied, &" Don't
want anything to-day, John" Well, do;

At this the lady looked up, and seeing our
ex-Coroner, she rushed to the door, remark
ing, Oh! you must excuse me Mr.. Kersey.
thought it was the vegetable Chinaman.
Well, to be candid, we always had an idea
that our friend Kersey had a sort of foreign
accent, but now our belief, which we have
never before expressed, is confirmed. We
thought it was more German than Chinese.

EDITOR Sr.rErMaS: members OF

and WAS largely attended. Speeches were
made by Hon. Judges Wingard, Sturdevant.

kins Music by glee club under the
leadership of Miss Flora f. Slough. our tai

takes hold of-a success.
Court has adjourned. and the honorable
members of the, bar are now taking little
recreation. "His honor" has gone on a raid
after the "wily trout" and will no doubt
have good luck.
We noticed Saturday our three Indian
fri nds. Hnsh. Hush Poween. Mox-Mox and
Hush's brother Frank, three of the best
looking and best behaved warriors in the
country. They are sub-chiefs of the Nez
Perce tribe. and say. they are going to hunt
the hostile Snake Indians at Salmon river,
who have been killing settlers of late, if so,
we say success to them, and may they return
with plenty of scalps. Oar esteemed friend
Col Parker no doubt knows these Indians,
and although he does not waste much lore
on any of the noble savsges. he will agree
with us in saying that so far they have been
good friends to the whites, and have be-
haved themselves as good peaceful and law
abiding citizens. STEVE.
