peared with great success on the
opera stage at San Francisco. Our
people may expect rich musical
treat.
We are informed by prominent
official Of the 8. P. r. r., who
came in from the railroad front
yesterday, that track laying has
been completed to within twelve
miles of Ell Paso. Owing to the
heavy grading between the end of
track and Ell PasO, the road will
not be completed to that town for
about six weeks. For the same
reason track laying on the A. T. &
8. F. road will not be finished UNI
til the Sd or 4th of March, or per-
haps later date, instead Of the lst,
as was expected.
