NEVADA GAZETTE MARCH 27 & 28, 1866 71
TUESDAY, MARCH 27, 1866
THEATER.—The Dramatic Company will come up from Marysville to-day, and open at the
Theater this evening. This is a fine company, embracing some of the best artistes in the State, old
favorites on the San Francisco boards, and we hope they will be greeted with good houses during their
short stay in Nevada. The play for to-night is “The Elves, or the Statue Bride,” a popular piece that ran for
many successive nights at the Bay... .
WATER-POWER DERRICK.—The attention of those interested in mining is called to the
advertisement of E. P. Marsellus, who offers for sale one of Mattison’s water-power derricks, with guys
and everything complete for immediate use.
GEORGE W. YANT. —A. W. Lester has shown us a letter just received from George W. Yant, for
many years a resident of Nevada. He is now living in the town of Carroll, Ohio, practicing law, which he
finds rather a dry business, and engaged somewhat in oil speculations. His old friends here will be glad to
learn that he is alive and well.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28, 1866
EARTHQUAKE.—A little after twelve o’clock, on Monday, two severe earthquake shocks were
experienced in San Francisco. People ran from their houses, pale and trembling, into the streets. Walls
were cracked, window glass broken, etc. The shock was also felt at Santa Cruz, Gilroy, San Juan South,
San Jose, Stockton and Sacramento, being very severe in the three places first named.
THEATER—DISA PPOINTMENT.—In consequence of the bad condition of the roads, the
Dramatic Company did not arrive in town until a late hour last evening, and the stage containing their
baggage and articles necessary for presenting the play in proper style was detained so late that it was
impossible to arrange the scenery for a performance last night. The disappointment was unavoidable, and
much regretted by the management. The company will open to-night in the gorgeous spectacle of “The
Elves,” with songs, dances, etc. ...
ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WEAPONS.—A warrant was issued yesterday, by Justice Palmer, for
the arrest of Abram and John M. Fulweiler, charged with an assault with deadly weapons on a school
teacher named Horace Miller, at the Anthony House. The assault was made just before the school was to
have been opened on Monday morning, and Miller was quite severely beaten. One of the assailants struck
him on the head with the corner of a slate, cutting a deep gash, and the other struck him several times
with a heavy cane. The difficulty was in some way connected with the school, but we did not learn the
particulars.
HIBERNICON.—An exhibition of Blaisdell’s celebrated painting of Irish scenery, entitled the
“Hibernicon,” will be given at the Nevada Theater on Monday and Tuesday evenings of next week; also
on Tuesday afternoon—for the benefit of school children and family parties. This painting covers over
11,000 square feet of canvas, and embraces all the principal cities of Ireland, the Lakes of Kilarney,
Giants, Causeway, Round Towers, and other magnificent curiosities in the Green Isle. Descriptive lecture
by J. H. Warwick. The Swiss Bell Ringers will perform between the parts.
