Uncle Isaac Coming.

Max Fehrmann, supported by his
Eastern Company, will give his new
play, "Uncle Isaac,' written for him by
Fred Maeder, at the Opera House on
Friday, 2Sth inst. Fehrmann will
probably be remembered by many of
the APPEAL readers as the man who
played the Jew part in the " Phoenix"
with the Milton Mobiles party here last
year. The part belonged to Alonzo
Schwartz, but Fehrmann, who was a
member of the orchestra, took it on &C
count of Schwartz's illness, and played
it in such manner as to score grand
success. "Uncle Isaac" has had good
run in San Francisco, it's '.gags" being
the latest popular jargon on the streets.
The piece ought to draw full house in
Carson.
The Emmetts and the Carson Guard
will each enter a team for the Andrews
trophy, which will be the principal
prize contested for at the approaching
shooting tournament at Shell Mound
Park.
If you wish to purchase anything
from Uncle Harris, you can pay him by
the week or month, on anything you
may buy, and send the money by post
Office order.
