Milton Mobiles, who was the chief feature
last night in "Phenix," and gave such
general satisfaction by his excellent rep
resentation Of the bohemian, will appear
at the Opera House Monday evening in
"Interviews." In this piece, says the St.
Louis Republican, Mr.. Mobiles. both as
author and actor, appears to better advan-
tage than in any preceding play. "Intsr-
views" Is q comedy in the beat sense. The
| dialogue never sinks to medioority. while
Ia many scenes it 10 positively brilliant.
While the character OF Quill Driver IL in a
meaaure an exaggerat!on. it has 40 many
touches Of human nature that we can read
ily pardon the faults. The character is
played by Mr.. Mobiles with that perfect
ease and winning grace that long since
placed him in the front rank of natural
actors. Mobiles is q humorist, and bis
humor is infectious. He has a wonderful
personal magnetism, and whether in a
serious or comic situation sways his aud
fence at will. Quill Driver is a creature
all light and shade, some OF his transitions
being so abrupt that they would seem
ludicrous in less skilfu! hands than those
of the author-actor. Interviews y 10 an
unqualified success, and destined to make
more money and lame for Its author than
all his other productions combined.

turned from an European tour, yesterday

little information on its face, except that
it ia good for five pounds, English money.

are "a good as gold in any part OF the

going into the counterfeiting business
until Mr.. Davis gave US some information
which caused q reconsideration Of the
scheme. The bank depends on the per-
lection Of the bank-note paper and OF the

by the touch, it gives out a crisp. crack

ance to Orc C~OncentrH toys.
A medical discovery recently made by
John Rae OF New York City tends TO cor
rect the popular delusion that heavy bodies
In motion move most readily down hill.
While experimenting upon q screen he was
making for Schieffelin d Co., druggists, he
found when 1t was set at a slight molina
ton and sst in very rapid vibration longi-
tudinally, light particles thrown upon it
travelled down to the lower end, while the
heavy ones jumped aud scrambled up hill
to the highest place. The New York Sun
gives the following particulars: Proceed
ing upon the suggestion thus afforded, he
constructed a simple machine, consisting
OF a board three feet long. with q pair Of
stout hickory springs at one end and a
strap at the other, attaching 1t to q small
crank on q shaft, that gave about q thou
SAM vibrations per minute to the board.
The pitch Of the board was 8 8 of an inch
to the foot. When dry sand and gravel
were thrown npon this table. the larger
and heavier particles ell moved rapidly TO
the upper end. and only the fine ssuif went
down.
Then he tried the effect of water upon
the material. and found that it aided the
process. Procuring soms Carolina gold
ore aud pulverizing 1t to dust in a crush
ing machine OF his own invention, he
mixed that dust with water in a mortar.
and. with water dripping upon it, tried it
| upon the vibrating board. Every atom of
sand aud rock went down to the lower
end, while the minntest particles OF metal.
being the heavier substance, rolled and
| bounded up to the high end, and there
| dropped off into a little trough placed to
receive them. So perfect was this me
| chanioal separation that Professor Torrey
found by analysis that the same orc that
gave S140 to the ton when separated by
costly machine built for the purpose. and
supposed to be the best heretofore in use.
gave $40 to the ton as the result OF thai
lingering on Mr., Races board. Mr.. Raj
believes that he can build, for 500 each

This work is now done by boiling, a no

system. But there are many ways i
which his novel discovery will be foun
valuable in its demonstration that "tras

The Piutes and washoes After One
Anothcr.s ScaIDs,

The Piutes and WashOes After One
Another's ScaIps.
Two dispatches were received at the
SENTINEL Office last night detailing a re-
ported Indian trouble. The story reads a
good deal like the tales Of woe that groaned
up out of White Pine during "Cleve's
war;" but as it is possible that there may
be something CORY in the rumor outside
Of the Gazette reporters imagination, we
give the dispatches from the front for
what they may be worth:
THE FIRST TIDINGs.
RENO, Nov. 24.-Nothing more can be
ascertained regarding the reported Indian
trouble between the Washoes and Piutes.
1t is said the fight occurred at Mud Lake,
about 20 miles from Wadsworth, but the
rumor still lacks confirmation. The few
Indians remaining here are very reticent.
1t has been expected for a long time that
hostilities would break out between the
two tribes. The last fight they had was
on the 14th of June, 1865, when the Piutes
tried to take a horse away from a Washoe.
Since the war of 1853 the Washoes had not
been permitted to W a horse or keep a
gun. On that day about $50 Piutes at
tackled a band of Washoes about two miles
south of where Reno is now located, and
they have been at loggerheads since that
time. The Piutes have held the Washoes
under subsection for years, and a rebel
lious spirit has been ranking in the
Washoes' hearts for a long time. The sore
was torn pen afresh about Is months
ago, when a Piute murdered one of the
Washoe tribe.
o PARTICULARS.
RENO, Nov. 25.-Nothing further has
been learned regarding the reported In
dian fight. johnson Sides, a prominent
member of the Piute tribe, followed by
foul stalwart young warriors, called at the
Gazette office to-day, and said he thought
the reported fight was without foundation.
He said his tribe held a council "A short
time ago, with the view of selecting a chief
to ascend the throne, made vacant by the
death of old Winnemucca, but the follow
ers of the old man were so much dis
tressed over their loss that the conference
adjourned without accomplishing any
thing. johnson thinks the Piutes enter
tain very friendly feelings toward the
Washoes, and have no reason to declare
war. He thinks if the fight occurred at
Mud Lake yesterday 1t must nave been be-
tween ~unprincipled drunken men from the
two tribes, and that it would not interrupt
the friendly relations now existing be-
tween the heads of the tribes. Sides ap-
prehends no difficulty in selecting a sue
cessor of Winnemucca, and favors Cap
tains Dave, Sam, Nachez or Leo Winnie
mucca, the old chiefs son. He says they
are all honest, sober and Industrious, and
remain on the reservation attending to
their business. He feels sure that the
selection of either of the above-named
braves would meet with the hearty ap-
proval of every Piute in the State The
Piutes, he says, are in a very prosperous
condition, and have no good reason for
complaining of the treatment they receive
from any quarter,

AN OCCASION OF SAD INTEREST.
ThurlOw Weed at Home Oh His
S5th Birthday.

By a singular coincidence the overland
train, the day that Geographic news was
received of Thurlow Weeds death, brought
the New York papers containing accounts
of his S5th birthday, which was celebrated
on the 18th inst. One week after the cele-
bration the Warwick Of American poll
tics" passed away. In describing the
birthday celebration the New York Sun of
the 10Th inst. says:
Yesterday was Thurlow Weeds S5th
birthday. The anniversary was very
pleasantly commemorated, but in a much
quieter manner than in days gone by, be-
cause of Mr.. Weeds poor. health. The
house in Twelfth street was like a garden
all day by reason of the numerous floral
gifts. Mr.. Weed said the day had been a
very happy one with him, Notwithstanding
that he had not been strong enough to
shake hands n converse as OF old with
his numerous callers. His daughter and
his granddaughter were fearful at first that
he would be depressed, for when he awoke
in the morning the memory of old days
came back to him, they said, with such
yividness that tears filled his eyes, and he
became very sad for a time. He rallied,
however, when he became aware by the
constant tinkling of tine bell of the many
who were calling, and passed the rest Of
the day in cheerful spirits. From early
till late the house was besieged by visitors
who left flowers and other tokens OF re-
membranoe. Every card and every gift
were carried up to Mr. Weeds chamber
directly upon being received. Miss Barnes,
his s~tepdaughter, read the cards to him
The cards soon became 30 numerous that
their fragrance grew oppressive, and they
wers removed from his bedchamber. After
that Miss Barnes read to the invalid az he
lay upon his couch the many letters that
the mail had brought. OF the scores Of
persons who called at the house, Mr.. Weed
was able to see but a few. The privileged
visitors were Charles O'Connor, General
james Watson Webb. Mrs. Sanford. wife
of the American Minister at Brussels,
General Bowen, Frederick W. Seward and
Mrs. Seward, and Mrs. General Dix.

The play ut the Opera House Last
Night.

Milton Mobiles appeared at the Eureka
Opera House last night in his now famous
role of ''Phenix." He comes out in a
little dismantled room on the seventh
story Of a New York tenement lodging,
writing a continued story Of the blood-and-
thunder sort for the weekly Chamber
maids Own" His take-off in this kind of
literary labor was first-rate and kept the
house in laughter. He got his hero and
heroine nto queer places, but, as he said;
the story would read as well, perhaps bet
ter, for that reason, as the avs OF nature
may be dlsregarded with impunity In these
peculiar productions which appeal to the
sensations that are not intimately assocl-
ated with the reasoning faculties. Inc
heavy villain is shot four times through
the brain and twice through the heart, but
he "still pursues" his victim from limb to
limb up to the top of an ancestral oak, I'M
der the spreading branches OF which she
had HE'D to meet her lover, but instead
had met the demon of gnashing teeth.
He pursues her till she is suspended by u
death grin from the end of o twjg with the
yawning abyss below her. He came near
killing off the villain and the heroine but'
upon second thought, he left him near the
trunk of the ancestral tree grinnln8, while
she was left suspended and developing her
muscles until the story could be "contln-
ued in our next" A reckless Bohemian Is
Mobiles with a sheet of letter paper
Zone side written on) for a shirt front.
The first act closes with a fine scenic dls-
play over the bodies of Mobiles and his
"adviser at law" through which the
stricken Bohemian ascends az II from
inferno. The scene was very startling
and interesting, and 30 life-like that more
than one grown person thought the COM
motion on the stage was caused by the
theater's being actually ablaze from the
cellar, while several little girls moaned
as though they thought their day of
purgatory had come. The play went on
after the first act, the plot of a thrilling
nature being symmetrically developed, and
atfording a number of scene that tried
the emotions and sympathies acutely. But
the light and life of the piece was Mobiles,
whose exhibition of life from his Bohe-
mian standpoint was full OF natural
drolleries and most humorous suggestions.
The support was good. Alonzo schwartz,
- Moses Solomons, was Irresistible in his
comicalities. After several Of the crushing
tragedies i'll the piece he came smiling and
rotund to the front to cheer the lacerated
emotions, and set the whole house in a
roar. Little Lizzie Evans, Katie Morans,
or WISCONSIN" in the play, supported
him bravely In going about to sec the
elephant. Dollie Mobiles, in her two parts,
filled the roles we'll. There was q very
fair audience present, who enjoyed the
performance greatly, as their frequent
demonstrations Of applause indicated.
