The Great Hayerly's.

Ii there was vacant seat in the Grand
Opera House last evening, says the Los
Angeles Times, of the 18th, it was not
visible to the naked eye. A better house
has not been gathered since its opening,
and the assemblage was happy in proper
ton to it's size.
The company is simply immense. All
OF the antiquated minstrel business in
semi-circular stif-backed formality is
done away with. The acts are new, the
jokes are new, the songs are new, the
tumbling of the Cragg family is a new
feature in a minstrel entertainment. Lew
Spencer and Ben Collins occupied the
"outside ends" so far as these ends were
discoverable in the newly-cast stage bust
ness. George Germans comic singing
was very taking, as were also the ballads
by Harley, Curran and Shaw.
The limitations of brass band, a cal
Hope and church organ by the Quaker
City Quartette, were immense achieve
ments of the vocal organs, and set the
house wild. The dancing was fine,> and
the drill exercise surpassed anything of
the kind ever witnessed on the Los
Angeles boards. There will be three
distinct programmes presented during
the week.

Hardly Ready.

The San Francisco Post of the 21st inst.
says concerning Mr.. Depew's charges
against Andrew Johnson:
Chauncey M. Depew says that President
johnson was turned from the violent hatred
of the rebels to reasonable fondness for
them by the promise of social recognition
given him by ex-confederate leaders. That
johnson did unergo great change of feel
ing toward the South after the close of the
war, and that Grants fmness alone
saved the country from the grave
troubles that would have arisen had
Johnson been permitted to have had his way,
there can be no doubt; but that johnson was
a fool, governed altogether by petty vanity,
not many will believe. He was man of ILL
balanced judgment, strong prejudices and
great obstinaoy, but we are not ready to
credit Depew's statement that Anderw john
son was willing to hand over the government
to the rebels in return for the magnificent
privilege of being recognized in Southern
parlors.

FOR LARCENY AND BURGLARY.
ssMormon Joe,, and Three Others
Toe the Line of Justice
This Morning.

The attention of the Third District
Court was absorbed this morning with
indictments against four persons for
grand larceny.
Joseph Larson, Mormon Joe," was
called, and listened to the reading of an
indictment found by the Grand Jury
for robbery. The charge accused defend
ant of assaulting and feloniously stealing
from Alexander Shannon two $40 gold
pieces on the 18th inst. Mormon Joe"
replied in answer to the charge that he
took a twenty and five-dollar gold piece
from Shannon to keep for him antil he
sobered up, but meeting Shannon's wife,
defendant handed her the money. No
plea being made, and trial asked for,
G. o. Whittemore was appointed by the
Court to defend.
From the facts elected during the
examination in the Police Court, it was
shown that the two men had formerly
been partners in mining at Bingham.
Larson possessed an affinity for Mrs.
Shannon, and the woman deserted her
husband and chung to the defendant, with
whom she has lived for nearly two years,
and is now on the most friendly TERMS
This accounts for Larson giving Mrs.
Shannon the $25. The case awaits hear
ing.
The other papers were indictments
against William Martin, Charles Boards
ley and j. W. Brown, charged with bur-
glary and larceny, committed on the night
of October 18th, 1885. The Indictment
further sets forth that these three
men forcibly broke. into Ger
rams & Williams Palace saloon,
adjoining the postofice, and stole 90
cent glass bottle, another valued at rs
cents, five silver spoons, valued at "a, and
one box OF fifty cigars, appraised at $3.50,
besides So in money The three petty
burglars took until Monday next to enter
a plea. S. W. Darke was appointed at
torney to defend.

LILLIAN SMITH AND HER RIFLE.
A California Cribs Marvellous Skill
With the Ballard and
Winchester.

At the shooting gallery on South c
street last evening. says the Virginia
New Chronicle of the 18th, Miss Lillian
Smith gave private exhibition of her
skill with the rifle to the members of the
Virginia Gun Club, Nevada Rifle Associa-
ton and a number of invited guests. The
young lady acquitted herself splendidly
in the following difficult shots: First,
breaking glass balls sprung from trap
with only three-foot rise, with Ballard
and Winchester rifles; second; brea king
two rotary balls while revolving at a
speed of several hundred revolutions a
minute, one of them being broken by
the fair shootist with her back turned
to the target; third, miscellaneous
shooting breaking a ball no larger
than buckshot, and splitting an ordi-
nary playing card edgewise stuck in
the mouth of wooden deer, which was
swinging at the speed with which those
animals cover the ground while running !;
fourth, shooting at the word at three
different targets and making bullseye
on each one of them; fifth, breaking 80
balls in one minute attached to swing
Ing luOuCiO d OOCIJ Will d DdLdIu IIuO /,
sixth, breaking 20 balls attached to the
same swinging deer in 30 seconds with a
Winchester rifle At the end of this act
some OF the fragments of the broken balls
still chung to the model which Miss
Lillian dexterously picked off with bullets
from her rifle.
The wooden figure of rabbit, with a
bullseye about the size of buckshot over
the heart, was plugged several times in
succession by the fair shootist, which
turned over on pivot every time the
bullet rang the bell. While the rabbit
was turnin Z which took less than a sec
ond, Miss Lillian planted three bullets in
the head of the model at the place where
the eye should be located.
Another difficult feat performed was
the breaking oftwo glass balls, one sprung
from trap, with only three feet rise, and
the other hung to a target. The hanging
ball was broken when the trap was sprung
and the ball in motion broken before it
reached the floor.

The Portland Prize Fight.

The final deposit of $3.50 for the fight
between Dave Campbell and Jack Dem D.
sey was put up yesterday by the respect
i've hackers OF the pugilists, says the
Portland NeUs OF the Goth. Both are said
to be in the pink of condition, and when
they come together in the ring somebody
Is going to be hurt. 1t is more than likely
that neither will be in condition to have
a photograph taken after the mill is over.
Dempsey, when the money was put UP
Yesterday, remarked that inasmuch as
there had been considerable talk over the
manner in which the fight was arranged,
he, for one, was willing to change the
programme. Ii his adversary was will
ling, he would change the agreement and
make it a fight to a finish, Marquis of
Queensbury or London prize ring rules,
with or without gloves. He thought such
course would satisfy the most doubling
as to the genuineness of the affair.
