The appearances at Washington Hall
on Friday evening, October 23d, of
Mr.. George Buckler, the tragedian,
and his company of Shakespearean
players, will undoubtedly he the
event of the season. Mr.. Buckler is
spoken of as one of the very best ac-
tors in his line on the American
stage, and he will doubtless be heart
lily welcomed and appreciated by a
large audience. Good Shakespear-
can actors are very scarce nowadays
and whenever an opportunity is pre-
scented of witnessing one of the Classic
or legitimate dramas or tragedies with
such an excellent actor as Mr.. Buck
Ter in the principle role our people
embrace it gladly, and the hall on
the evening of the entertainment is
crowded to the doors with the elite Of
the town. The reception which Mr..
Bucklcr and his company will receive
will, therefore, without doubt, be
such as to make them glad that they
visited it. Mr.. BuckIer and his com
pany will present on the evening in
question Shakespeare's sublime trag-
] edy, " Hamleti Prince of Denmark. "

inquiries as to his identity, he obtained

he begun to d~exterously carve the SOAP
into the shape Of the human form di-
vine,' and within a~n-incredible short
time, considering the magnitude of the
undertaking II the unbalanced coudi-
ton of his mind, had produced a won

ever executed by either Marcou or
Nidouquet 1t represents a man with
his right arm outstretched, the fingers of
the hand encircling the neck of n duck,
which is as carefully reproduced and as
true to nature as the figure of the hunt

side, holding a shotgun, while at his feet
lies the figure of a dog wistfully gazing
at the game his master holds aloft.

wAsHoUTs ALONG THE LINE.
The Nam Delay TO Traffic ana DAM
age TO Track East OF Here.

A'''"
A series Of accidents happened to the
Union Pacific track at different points
yesterday.
The train on the Cheyenne 4 Northern
was delayed by some small washouts. and
did not arrive here until two hours after
its regular time.
An engine pulling a freight train was
derailed near Laramie and blocked the
road for some time.
The train due here from TIE west, No.
s, at ESQ. was held at Laramie for an
hour owing to ! fire IN the snow shed Just
this side Of Dale creek. 1t was not known
how bad the fire was, so the train did not
leave Laramie until notified that the FIRE
was put out. The FIRE had evidently been
caused BY the cinders from a locomotive.
The most extensive damage to the track
was the washou, east Of Grand Island on
the Nebraska division. The xashout is
in the Silver creek bottoms between
Clarks and the town Of Silver Greek.
About ~thrce-quarters Of a mile Of track is
under a foot OF water and the creek
bottom Is a pcffect auagmire. The storm
there is very heavy and the rain is still
coming Gown in torrents, SO there is no
prospect of any trains arriving before this
morniLF.
No trains came in from the East yester-
dsy. The w~est-bcund trains were made
up here from some coaches in the wards
and sent out several hours late. If the
wasbout can not be repaired or a trans
fer made the trains will probably be sent
around by Lincoln and Kearney. \ pile
driver was sent down to sec what could be
done towards repairing the washout 1t
was pushed out onto the bad track, which
sank under the weight, leaving the pile
diver stuck in the mud where it will have
to be dug out.
The track to Denver is all right and
the trains arrive and depart as usual
