stating that the plague had ceased.
LONDON, June 4.-The Times editorially
arraigns the leaders Of the Land League
and their abettors, including Archbishop
Croke and Parnell as having conspired to

the Archbishop for his recent course in

dreds and thousands of dependents upon
them.

fixing a scaffolding, when 1t gave way. and

sumod that he was instantly killed. The
Coroner left for the scene Of the accident
at 1 o'clock, and an inquest was held over
the body, which vas recovered by some
fellow miners. The jury learned that the
deceased was a native Of Ireland, about 45
years Of age, and without family. Their

A Good show.

The Carson Times speaks very favorably
Of the Big Four Minstrel Company to
open at the Opera House tomorrow night.
1t says: "This combination gave an ex-
cellent entertainment at the Opera House
last night. The vooalism and orchestral
support were pleasing. though the latter
needs toning down in order not to drown
out the singers. The Big Four, in con-
nection with their song and dance act,
gave an astonishing display Of general
gymnastics, as fine as we have ever seen.
One of the number excels in head springs,
a feat rarely attempted. They are appar-
entity made of tough material, and entirely
Indifferent to the hardest kind OF falls.
Their act is filled with ~laughable sur
p~rises, and needs to be seen to be appre-
ciated. The other features all range from
fair to first-class. Chalet, the ventrilo-
quist, is with the troupe, and is a leading
feature. As q ventriloquist he is one of
the very best.

suicide Of a Comedian.

Our dispatches this morning announce
the suicide of Mr.. Hersee, who will be re-
membered as the grotesque comedian Of
the Soldene troupe. No cause is given for
the rash act, but from a former member Of
the company we learn that he did not live
happily with his wife-Duggan, the Kicker
with whom, 1t is said, he was constantly
at war. On numerous occasions when she
was in temper she threatened to kick his
head of, and, as he was a small man, be-
low her stature, one Of these recurring
threats may have prompted him to take
the step which ended his career Of useful
ness. 1t IL also stated that he was former
ly an officer in the British army, and sold
his commission for $500. After the money
had been dissipated, and being of a must

Our Reasons.

In fact. we sell all goods at San Francisco
prices, and NO HUMBUG. For the beneht Of
those who want to know how we sell Goods 90
cheap, we will explain Our buyers are al
ways in the market, and are thoroughly con-
versant with the Dry Goods business, being
brought up to it from childhood, and therefore
know the texture of any piece of Goods, and
the actual value thereof, and being in the
market all the time know when they see q
piece of new goods, and NO old stock that has
been in the store for years can be palmed oi
on them as being of the latest pattern. And
IS we buy our goods for cash we get Q certain
percentage which those who do not cannot OBJ
tain. These are some of the reasons why we
sell so cheap. Another reason is we sell for
cash. thereby lessening our expenses. II we
had to keep . set Of books we would need
more help. And again, we do not believe in
the theory of charging good customers with
the debts of others to make good their losses.

The Willie Edouin troupe performed to
moderately fair house last night, and closed
an unsuccessful season. Burlesque has
seen its best days. Opera bouffe has ruined
it. The latter is infinitely more interest.
ing and artistic, and combines all the ele
ments Of the stage. Burlesque is a hotch.
potch Of extravagance, requires but few
people, and is as void Of interest nowadays
as q last years birds nest. 1t is full o.
stale jokes, and but for the specialties tina
are being constantly introduced it would
have been strangled by public indifference
long ago. Pretty legs, arms. faces and

The ends are made of hair ~tassels, and
