THE attendance was largo ut the
entertainment given in tho Opera
House last evening by Barlow, Wilson,

show was immense. much better than
that given in Carson by any similar
troupe. The quartotto singing was
delightful. while Barlow and Wilson's
end performances were hdicrous In the
extreme. As IN end man Wilson's
like has never been seen in Nevada.
Ho is ovorfowing with originalisms,
and his most obscure pun Is given with
such good effect that IL creates roars OF
laughter. Primrose and West are
princes Of song and dance men. Every

Mr.. Henry Catlin came down from

us that the Mcdonald claim. which no
bonded last fall, is looking fine. He
has opened tho claim at both ends,
l.5no feet apart, and stuck a good vein
Of quartz, in no place less than four
and from that to twelve feet wide; tho
ore will assay from $50 to $3.50 per ton,
with n probable average OF S75 to the
ton. There nro probably 1900 tons Of
quartz in sight at present. A great adj
vantage that he possess is that this
claim can be worked for $50 feet with
out the aid of hosting works; a tunnel
being the mean by which he dispenses
with this expensive machinery. Hicks
Ia situated in the midst of a timber dis.
trict aud all tho timber necessary for
