An .Unsuecsssful season.

The Lingards closed their season Of three
nights and a matinee at the Opera House
last night before q small audience. the
play presented being pink Dominos," a
lively comedy, but imperfectly rehearsed.
The action was rough. and the prompting
at times could be heard all over the thea
ter. This, however, was confined to q few
members OF the company; yet it marred
what otherwise was a most enjoyable per-
Torrance. Mr.. Lingard appeared at his
best, and Mrs. Lingard looked as volup-
tuous as her. pictures. OF the balance Of
the cast Mr.. Maubery tiokled the ribs Of
his auditors, and Miss Cliefden charmed
them by her pretty appearance.
The matinee in the afternoon was also
poorly attended, and this fact made the
company take liberties unbecoming a first
class troupe. We have seen circus man
ayers cut their last exhibition short, but
we do not remember to have seen such q
murderous attempt at a matinee perform
ance as was made yesterday afternoon.
The season was an unsuccessful one.
Whether this was the cause Of dull times
or lack of appreciation remains for the
managers to find out.

THE TRAMP's TICKET.
The Trick of Stealing a Ride from
New York TO Sacramento.

The Trick of Stealing a Ride from
New York TO Sacramento.
Upon the arrival Of a train from the
East a few days since, says the Sacramento
Record, one Of the officers at the depot no.
ticed a man emerge from underneath one
Of the cars, and hasten away out of sight
to the rear of the depot. Suspecting him
to be a tramp who had been beating q ride,
the officer made an examination, and be-
tween the four wheels under one end Of
the car found a small piece Of board
dropped upon the ground. which had been
carefully prepared and used by the impe-
cunious traveller as q seat. The bit OF
board was five inches by nine in size. and
seven-eighths Of an inch in thickness.
Across one side OF this a half-inch slot had
been cut so as to fit q half-inch bar of iron
extending across the truck, and upon
which the rider balanced himself. Upon
the other side Of the board was q cushion,
made by lacking on a piece OF sheep pelt.
Tackled underneath this was the tramp's
ticket, composed Of a piece Of pasteboard
torn from a show card. and upon which was
written Cramps ticket from New York
to San Francisco. Good on any train un-
til fired off," 1t is not known whether the
fellow succeeded in beating his way in the
perilous position, upon the various trains,
the entire distance from New York, but
the improvised seat bore the marks of q
great deal OF handling and wear, and the
ticket secured with it Is the first tramp's

plant the stakes and mark the boundaries
as described by Mr.. Williams and other
witnesses.
Cross examined-Was in the employ Of
the Richmond at the time the Albion
was located; all Of the l~ocators were sim
ilarly employed; they located the ground
because they were American citizens and
believed they had a perfect right to enter
upon and appropriate the public domain;
Manager Probert had notified them that
they must either deed the ground to the
Richmond or quit the employ of the com

Probert sent for them and re-installed
them in their old places; this lasted but q

upon recent examinations. claiming dam
ages from the Richmond Company In the
sum Of two millions Of dollars. for ore ex-
tracted from the Uncle Sam ground, be-

Our Reasons.

In fact, we sell all goods at San Francisco
prices, and NO HUMBUG. For the benefit of
those who want to know how We sell Goods so
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. aud therefore
know the texture Of any piece Of Goods. aud
the actual value thereof, and being In the
market all the time know when they see .
piece of new goods, and no old stock that has
been in the store for years can be palmed off
on them as being of the latest pattern. And
as 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.
