dive. "Let me buy It," OF course M.
Bavray complied with the royal request,
and was commissioned tofit it up and
furnish it, which he did at a cost Of
912O,00s. When all was finished he went
to see the Khedive, taking his little son
with him. The monarch offered to kiss
the boy, but he ran away crying, "No,
no, mamma says you are naughty
man." "WhyW asked the Khedive.

beautiful house," The Khedive wrote
on piece of paper and told the boy to
give it to his mother. "You can kiss

The Gr@co-Roman wrestling match
last night at Pixies Music Hall had been

RAwLINs, Sept. 10th, 1876.
The Republican Territorial Conven-
ton met at 2 O'Clock pm. to-day and
was called to order by E. P. Snow,
chairman of the Territorial Central
Committee.
A temporary organization was effect
ed by the election of Herman Glafcke

forty delegates were present or repre-
sented by proxy.
A permanent organization was then

On motion the convention then pro-
ceeded to nominate a candidate for dele

lively declined the nomination.

probably 1000 warriors connected with
it, and their chief is Roman Nose"
formerly Of Cheyenne agency.
1t is regretted that others of the
larger villages near by were not sur
prised and destroyed, but this affair
demonstrates the good policy of a stern
chase after the Indians, even with the
foot soldiers, who came in here to the
relief of the cavalry, as their part in
the play gives them renewed vigor and
spirit.
LATER.
Sept. 10.-There was a little picket
firing throughout last night, and this
morning, after the command was on
the march a number of Indians came
down on the real of the column, but
met with a a reception from Cap
tain Summers battalion of the Fifth
Cavalry, who cornered the enemy in
the ravine, killed several and disabled
others. Private Foster, company F;
private Madden, company n, and
George Cloutier, company ID, were
wounded.
The entire command marched fifteen
miles to-day toward the Black Hills,
bringing the entire sick and wounded
on twelve filters.
Medical Director Clements am~putated
the right leg of Lieutenant Won Luett-
witt last evening, and private Kennedy
died of his wounds. No other amputa-
tions or deaths are likely to occur.
The wounded chief, American Horse,
died last night. Most of the captives
are brought along, a few squaws being
left back with the Generals advice to
the hostile bands to go on to the Agen-
cies, behave themselves, and all will be
well with them.
Colonel Mills, Lieutenant Ruble and
Frank Gruard go through to the Hills
tomorrow, with the view of securing
future supplies.

The Wyoming Armory.

The old adage, what is worth do
ing, is worth doing well" is no where
more closely observed than in the Magic
City. Large brick business blocks, mag
niicent fronts, immense plate-glass
windows are becoming the rule, rather
than the exception with us. Builders
strive to excel; merchants and business
men vie with each other in quantity
and quality of their goods.
Nothing has been more suggestive to
us of this go ahead style of our mer-
chants generally than a brief look over
Freund s. Bro. IS e store on Ferguson
street. Their show windows are taste
fully arranged, with a display of Sharp's
and other new sporting rifles of 1000
yards range, fishing rods, tackle, etc.
They also contain splendid stuffed speci-
mems of Rocky Mountain sheep, red fox,
white and red f~errets, canvas-back and
mallard ducks, and smaller game birds.
Entering the store, on right and left
you notice, in plate glass cases, shot
guns of the finest make and finish, fish
ing tackle, game bags, %reloading appa-
ratus for all sorts and sizes of cart
ridges, Evans new thirty-four shooters,
Winchester's improved central-ire ri
fies, central-fire Sharp's and Hawkins
marine carbines, q. S. needle guns,
calibre so; Whitney's carbine, military
and sporting rifles, the Centennial
needle carbines and rifles, together with
other makes too numerous to mention.
They have also the Smith & -Wesson,
the new English double-acting holster
pistol, and other varieties of English
and American make, with cartridge
belts and accoutrements. The shelves
are loaded with fixed ammunition,
while the show cases on the counters
contain a fine variety Of hunting cut
lery, field glasses, sun glasses, pocket
compasses, gold scales, magnets and
pistols
The walls between the cases are decora-
ted with fine chromos, whiie the tops
of cases are covered with rare stuffed
animals and birds.
Among them we notice a 12-pronged
elk's head, white and black tailed
deer, offers, badger, lynx, coyote, stone
marten, black footed mink, imported
roebuck deer and a specimen of the
wolverine; also red head and pin-tail
ducks and white coon.
The rear of the store contains a COM
plete armorer's shop and business office.
All available floor room is filed with
fixed ammunition of all descriptions.
They add to their attractions, Gagged
knocking birds and musical'boxes. The
taste displayed in this establishment is
worthy of all the praise we could give
had we twice the space to spare, and as
a whole is a credit to our city and the
energetic proprietors.

would show the Generals plans to have
been well laid. [See the new from
Crook in another column.
Gen. Sherman stated that there
