Piper's Opera House.

The Soldene engagement has been
very successful. A crowded house
has witnessed each performance,
and no troupe has for a long time
received such enthusiastic and we'll
merited applause. Each performer
is perfect, and the music is excel
lent. This afternoon "Billee Taylor"
will be given. 1t is an uproariously
funny piece, something like Pima
fore, but much more absurd in the
situations. The song OF Ben Barna-
Gle, "All On Account CT Eliza" is
worth going to Virginia to hear.
One verse is a little wide, but not
shockingly so, just enough to make
the men blush and the women gig
gle. To flight the engagement closes
with ola File de Madam Angot."

Getting Ready for Business.

The Lyon Mill and Mining Com
pany is preparing to do business on
large scale. A railroad of the
same gauge as the G. & G. is to be
built, which will connect their mill,
smelters, acid chambers, etc., with
the side track on Ophir fiat, and will
also run to the large tailings dump
at the mouth of the canon. 1t will
require about two miles of track to
reach around to tho various places
where it will be needed. The COM
pany will have its own locomotive
and cars, aud in everything save the
lack of time tables, excursions and
free passes, will have as complete a
railroad, though on small scale, as
any in the State,

COmO's Turn Comes Next.

For some time Como, that modest
but meritous camp, has been watch
ing with jealous eye the new rail-
roads which have been built, and
are in course of construction to other
out of the way places. Her turn
will come pretty soon. 1t will not
be long before developments will be
made there which will attract the at
tention of railroad builders, and the
c. & C. people who have their hands
already in will doubtless cast an eye
in that direction, and begin cipher
ing the COS. of Y switches, q grades
and all the other difficult problems
of railroading which are represent
ed by the letters at the tail end of
the alphabet. Some years ago Mr..
Daggett, our congressman projected
q road into the Como mountains
through Eldorado Canon, which ac-
cording to his statements would have
been very easy to operate, as it "was
down grade both ways" This route
could be utilized in approaching
the Como mines. and it only needs
the developments which are daily
expected to set corps of engineers
scrambling over the cliffs looking
for eligible cuts and soft blasting
rock for tunnel purposes.

Slanguage.

The latest thing in slang is on this
order: "Can you swim2" "No, 1
can't swim; but my brother Jim
can swim; but he's too thin, mother
won't let him go in."-Golden Era.
Wrong. The latest is: "Can you

Frances can dance the lancers and
several other fancy Dances"
