THE OTHER SIDE.

Our local columns of the 10Th instant con-
tanned a notice of Mrs John L. Crawford s
plea for the release of her husband, convicted
in White Pine County of cattle stealing,
claiming that it was put up job to rob him
of his property, and that she with four chill
dren had been left by said conspirators with
out blankets to cover them. This statement
is pronounced mere fabrication as far as the
property goes, by T. Z. Coleman, of Eureka,
who says Mrs Crawford is not Mrs. Crawford,
but the undivorced wife of Coleman, whose
bed and board she deserted, as well as her
two little girls, nearly four years ago, and has
since that time lived with Crawford in filthy
cabin, and that what furniture they had she
sold for what she could get. He distinctly
asserts that she is not Crawfsrd's wife, and
that Crawford is an unmltigated thief. We
say this much only in the cause of justice,
and because Mr.. Coleman, who is we'll known
to some of our best citizens, to whom he
refers, writes over his own signature. There
may be some feeling in the matter so far as he
is concerned, but he probably asserts facts,
at least he is responsible for the statements,
and he is said to be, by those who know him,
a very good man.

"PINAFORE" TONIGHT.

To night the Juvenile "Pinafore" company
from the Standard theatre, San Francisco,
make their appearance at the Opera House.
The company is composed of twenty-six first
class juvenile artists, who have drawn immense
houses in the city for long time. The San
Francisco press has been lavish in it's praises
of the excellence of the little performers, and
compares them favorably with the best ''Pina-
fore" talent that has yet appeared in that
city. The entertainment tonight will surely
come up to the highest expectations of our
theatre goers; it will be the only good repre-
ssntation of the famous little operetta that
We have had yet We bespeak full house

THE LION COUNTY ASSESSMENT OF
THE V. & 7. r. r.

The Chronicle of last evening says that II.
M. 1erington appeared before the Board of
Equalization of Lyon County yesterday, to
protest against the valuation of the Virginia
d Truckee Railroad ia that county, to wit ::
$50, 900 for the main track and IS, 900 for the
side track. AIr. Yerington claimed that that
part Of the road in Lyon County did not cost
to exceed $l7 900 mile and that he could
nuiid It now for much less that the earnings
of the road during the current year will be
fifty per cent. less than last year, when the
net earnings averaged nearly $15 900 per mile;
that the company would gladly take So, 00O,
600 for all its property in this State, and
finally that the valuation of the Virginia &
Truckee was unequal compared with the
Central Pacific Railroad, which is raised to only
SO 900 per mile. The Board held that there
was no evidence in its possession to warrant
greater raise in the Central Pacific case but
that the sworn statement of the Superinten-
dent of the Virginia Truckee Railroad pre-
scented to the Legsla :ure last Winter fully
justified the raise on that road. The Board
voted unanimously to sustain The raise.

TRICKS OF THE CHINRsE.-At an early
hour on Sunday morning Officer Duncan and
Deputy Sheriff Powers made a raid on a
Chinese opium den in which some bad white
girls were smoking. The keeper would not
open tho door, SO the officers broke it in. As
soon ~ the crash was heard on the inside
every light was e1tinguished to give the
white habitues a chance to escape. 1t ap-
pears that the keepers of these dens fully
appreciate the Importance of protecting their
patrons, for they believe if any person should
be arrested in their vile dens that it would
deprive them of white patronage thereafter.
FAST FREIGHT ACCIDENT On Saturday
afternoon one of Wheeler's fast freight teams
ran away on the Swsetwatsr, overturning and
smashing the wagon to atoms The driver
was thrown from his seat and had his leg
broken. He was taken to Aiken's near by,
for medical treatuent. Fortunately there
were no passengers aboard. What occasioned
the runa way could not be learned.

A NUISANCE. -Mercedas Berago, an old
Spanish woman who has appeared oftener
before the Police Court as prosecuting wit
ness than any other three persons in the
city, yesterday applied for warrant for
the arrest of young man whom she
charges with having taken o gold chain
from her. When questioned whether the
accused had stolen it, she replied in the
negative, but stated that she loaned it to
him and wanted to get it back by a process
Of law. The District Attorney properly de-
cided not to give her warrant, for had
he done so, the chances are that when the
ease came up for trial, she would have
appeared for the defense instead of the
prosecution, as she does nine times out of
ten in such emergencies, and the city
would again have been put to useless ex-
pense This old woman is getting to be a
perfect nuisance to the officers of the Police
Court,
CoNvicrED OF OPIUM SAoKING.-Yester
day two young but frail girls, Rebecca
Roe and Minnie Doe, the age of neither
being over 10 years, were arrested under the
City Ordinance, for smoking opium, and
brought before Judge Cary. The first de-
PENDANT asked for trial and was convicted, for
which she paid $50. Minnie plead guilty,
and was fined $50. After the conclusion of
the cases His Honor delivered strong NOR al
lecture to the girls, concluding it by telling
them that should they ever be brought be-
fore him again for a similar offense, they
would be prosecuted under the estate opium
law" which makes the practice of opium
smoking State Prison crime. 1t is some
satisfaction to notice that the police have
started in earnest to break up this fearful
vice in this city, and it is greatly to be de-
sired that they will not rest here, but bag
every opium smoker in the town.
VIZ CAN DISCOUNT THAT.-The Chronicle
of last evening says that man is working as
feeder at one Of the furnaces in Eureka,
who few years ago was a wealthy New York
broker and q member Of the Union League
Club. That's nothing. During the past
Summer an old Frenchman has been working
in one of the Glenbrook saw mills, who, before
the fall of the Empire, was member of the
Imperial household, and attached to the per-
sonal staff Napoleon III. After the fall Of
the Empire he accompanied the exiled EN-
peror to Chiselhurst, whore he remained until
the latter died. He came to America with
little money, but he soon got rid of that, and
is now an ordinary laborer. The unfortunate
nobleman says that all of his property in
France, of which he had considerable, was
con6scated by the Republican Government
when he followed bis master.
New DRY Goops SToRE.-Alfred Liienfeld
will throw open to the public this morning
new stock of goods, in his new store, next
door to Bosko's corner His stock consists of
the usual stock of dry goods, all fresh and
fully assorted.
