A Good Disposition Accounted For

Nothing conduces SO much to health
and a proper equanimity of temper as 2
good meal. How trite is the saying
that if you want to approach party on
doubtful question the best time to do
it is after dinner. 1t is then that the
mind is at rest and more free to enter
tain the condition of others. AS a rule
Carson has good eating houses, and
the quiet and orderly state of our burg,
instead of being laid to dull times,
must be attributed to the happy effect
produced upon our people by the hotels
and restaurants of Carson. The Opera
Hall Restaurant, opposite the Opera
House, run by Pascal, the Delmonico

cause the gruffest old codger to smile.

1t used to be the style for great
many of our saloons to import beer
from abroad, but that fashion has been
pretty much done away with. The
beer made at Jacob Klein's Carson

HING LEAR.
w. +. sherida,, in the Title Eolc.

Our people are soon to have a ricl
treat in the theatrical line. W. T.
Sheridan Will appear at the Carson
Opera House on the evenings of the
informed he will probably appear in the
characters of King Lear and Louis NI.
From the San Francisco Alta we take
the following notice:
Since the time of Edwin Forrest, who
was the acknowledged and most sue
cessful exponent of the histrionic art,
''to the manor born" no such triumph
has been chronicled as that achieved by
w. Z. Sheridan as King Lear last ever
ing at the Baldwin Theater. This
character was Forests spe clal study
From the moment that Sheridan APP
peared on the stage until the final close
of the tragedy he never lost sight Of
the true character of Lear. His burst
of passion were beyond description !;
they were the outbreak Of al abused
man driven to desperation by the cruel
treatment Of his daughters. Sheridan'S
delineation of the choleric king was so
extremely natural that his individuality
was lost in the mastery portraiture he
presented, and perhaps there Is not in
the whole range of the dramatic art
anything to equal the terrific curse in
the first act. Ia fact, the great starting
point in Lear is where he utters the
curse on Generil. 1t is sublime even in
the terror it creates, and Il man of
Sheridan's physique and power of voice
in the utterance of this passage was
something hardly ever equalled on the
American stage. In the third act,
where Lear's mind letters between
reason and madness, and in his def
ance of the elements, Sheridan was
grand and magnificent. Sheridan's
Lear can be put down as a companion
picture to that of his artistic triumph
in Louis XII, and he will stand alone
the Lear of his time. AS matter of
incident it should not be forgotten that
ut the close Of the first act, after the
curse on Goneril, the scene in the audi
forum beggared description, some ris-
ing in their seats and cheering at the
wonderful artistic triumph of Sheridan.
Miss n. Holbrook's GOneril was but
fair. She was nervous and felt over
weighted with the character. Misses
Phoebe Davis and Lulu Davenport were
acceptable as Regen and Cordelia. Girls
mer as Edgar proved further his worth
as an excellent stock actor. Willie
Simms as the Fool, lent considerable
interest to the play. Bradley's Earl of
Kent, likewise 'rhayer's Earl of Glou-
cester, were beth good. No little praise
can be offered for the excellent manner
in which the mechanical and scenic
effects were wrought out. Also the
costumes, which were new and bright,
reflected credit on the costumer.

Yesterdays Fire.

The occasion of the fire alarm yester-
day morning was the burning of the
dwelling house oCMr. Flynn, the dairy
man, situated in the northeastern part
of town. The fire is supposed to have
caught from a defective stovepipe.
The distance of the building from town
was too great for our gallant fireman to
be of service.

Why the American Chinese do No,
Grow Rich.


why the American Chinese do No
Grow Rich.
Many wonder why, with the grea
frugality and self-denial they exercise
in most cases, the Chinese in this coun
try do not have more ready money
than is usually found in their possession.
The truth of the matter is, as stated by
an intelligent Chinaman to the APPEAL
that ninety per cent. of the race arc
confirmed and natural gamblers, who
are ever ready to take the most des-
perate chances to increase their small
accumulations. The APPEALS in
formant remarked that there is scarcely
a Chinaman engaged in any kind of
lucrative business in this city who does
not periodically remit money to his San
Francisco correspondent for investm>n
in mining shares, and the result is OBJ
viOus. 1t is stated as an incontrOVer-
tible fact that the Chinese of Carson
have dropped Il half million in stock
spcculations during the past ten years.
For the sake Of gratifying their morbid
gambling tastes these people will abso-
lutely deprive themselves of the neces-
sary food to maintain an atiiliation be-
tween body and soul. Of the numerous
Chinese domestics employed in this
city who receive from S25 to $50 per
month. including board and lodging. it
is safe to assert that at the end of a
years constant labor, there is not one
in fen who will be the possessor Of $50
in money. They do not squander their
in drinks, cigars, jewels, rich
attire, or other eytravagances of a SINH
lar character, but they lose their money
i'm their national games of hazard, and
in the purchase of lottery tickets. A
walk through Chinatown Of an eve
ming will disclose at least a dozen
gambling dens to on ordinary observer,
besides there are, perhaps, a similar
lumber of illicit games conducted |
which avoid the payment of licenses |
for by law. So the Chinese |
