The Comedy Our Nefghbors Gave
~ Night


The Silver State Dramatic Club Of Ruby
Hill presented " Caste" a comedy in three
acts, by t. W. Robertson, at the Opera
House last evening to a fair audience. The
story Of the play is an interesting one, and
may be drawn from real life, but the plot
is very thin, in fact there is none at all.
1t is simply a little thread, based on class
in society, a supposed battle between pride,
love and duty. The scene is laid in Eng
land during the the time of the Sepoy in
surrection in India. "George D'Alroy"
e. J. Reek) is the son of "Marquise DIST.
Maur" MRS. L. E. Brown, a noble and
aristocratic lady, whose antecedents can be
traced back to good Henry V. "George"
falls deeply in love with a poor ballet
dancer, {" Esther Eccles," Miss E. Mette)'
and marries her without the knowledge of
his mother. Captain Hautree' (E. s.
DELL is q friend of Georges" wrung in for
convenience sake, and endeavors to show
him the folly Of such a union before it is
contaminated, especially as on a visit with

the drunken father (G. R. Waters) and a
sister of Esther" "Polly," and her
young man, Samuel Gerridge," "a boorish,
ill-bred plumber. The Instruction in In
dia compells the British Government to
send troops to India. George" gets a
commission and is ready to leave for the
a~ntipodes with " Captain Hautree." Before
going, however, he receives a visit from
his mother, when, by a peculiar concatena-
ton Of circumstances, she learns OF his
marriage. This places the scion of the
noble house in rather q peculiar
p~redicament, and the old lady
leaves in a furry. George"
leaves for the seat of war with his friend,
and during his absence his wife gives birth
to a son. Captain Hautree" returns to

believes the story and prepares to go back
to the stage, but is unable to secure an

The Cheyenne Leader tells what recently
happened to Colonel Fair at that place !:
In q few minutes the train started and
was speeding away at . lively rate, when
Senator Fair suddenly came out of the
telegraph Office. He gazed at the depart
ing train, now 500 yards away, and quickly
run or get left. The former alternative
was taken, and the 15-millionaire started
ON o run like any 15-cent plebian. He
ran hard, too his speed would have done
credit to a professional pedestrian. There
were no 20-dollar gold or 1-dollar. silver
pieces hopping out Of his pockets at every
bound. Neither did any wallet stuffed
with greenbacks fall by the wayside.
Wherever Senator Fairs money was-if he
had any with him-was securely stuffed
away for safety.
Meantime the gap between the train and
the Senator widened, although the Sena-
tor ran we'll. He generally runs we'll at
least he ran very we'll for the Senatorship.
But he got left yesterday. However, that
race was in Wyoming, and not on his ma
tive heath-Nevada.
When the Senator was forced to take the
track for his course he was influenced to
abandon 1t at once, for he turned in alarm
when he heard the switch engine putting
behind him. He stood still, not knowing
what to do, when the engine came up and
the engineer requested Mr.. Fair to mount
the foot-board and he would catch the train
for him. So the Senator from Nevada,
worth $l5, 200. 900, bounced on the foot
board in front Of the engine and then
another race ensued. but that was n be-
tween engine and engine. The donkey
screeched wildly, and finally the train was
stopped at the bend, when the Senator
from Nevada took his seat-in the sleeper.
Many persons witnessed the little event
and the interest was high, from the reason
that the person who was left was q 15-mil-
~lionaire and yet subject to the small ills Of
life that beset the pathway Of the impecu-
nious traveller.

The Law as to Annual Assessments.
The New York Mining News Of Feb. 10

has the following:
The Commissioner of the General Land
Office, as late as the 18th Of January, 1881,
has given the following plain construction
to the statute as amended
at is held under the second section OF
the Act, that labor performed or money
expended upon q mining claim prior to
the 1st day Of January succeeding the date
of location thereof will not be considered
as a part Of or applied upon the first an
nual expenditure required by law. Thus,
upon a claim located at any time during
the year 1880, the period within which the
labor must be performed commences Jan.
/, 1881, and during the calendar year 1881,
the expenditure must be made, or the
claim will be subject to relocation On and
after Jan. 1, 1882.
In order to apply the law to a claim To-
Gated prior to the year 1880, it will be
necessary to calculate from the date of To-
cation. For instance, upon a claim located
in 1875 the first expenditures would be
reckoned as due within one year from Jan.
l, 1876, to-wit Jan. l, 1877, and annually
thereafter by the calendar year."
