River ut Nick JuuiSe's ranch, about
thirty miles east Uf Fort Laramie,
and thence in Il nurthCastCrlY direc-

by n stage line, which carries the
mail and passengers from Cheyenne
to Rcd Cloud and Spotted Tail
Agencies, owned by lin5hipr and
Cinnumond, and also by freight
trains, ranchmen and settlers. This
route is settled up as far as the Platte

military supplies for the two mill
tnry posts at the agencies, Camps
Robinson and Sheridan, are trans
ported over it. The fare to Red

the route from Cheyenne nOrthwaTd
is the safest, speediest, cheapest and
best, to reach the Black Hills
Cheyenne Is at the function of the
two competing railroads from the
rlst-the Union Pacific and Kansas
Pacific. 1t will be two days rail-
road travel To Cheyenne from Chicago
or 81. Louis. The following table

There are two routes that may be
taken to the hills from here. The
one by way of Fort Laramie, Raw
Hide Buttes, Old WOman's Fork
and Beaver Creek is 1872 miles. This
route passes through a settled coun-
try for a hundred miIos or o Good
ranches will be found every few
miles rs far as Fort Laramie. There
is now Il stage line on it owned by
J.. e. Abney, that carries the United
States mail to and from the Fort,
and also passengers mt ten dollars II
piece. This line will be extended to
the Black Hills right away, if the
government permits it to be done.
The road is an unusually good one,
aud is constantly travelled by the
military, by freighterS, by ranch
men, settlers and others. The fol-
lowing table of distances over this
route is correct:
