Wonder if Col, Marria has any late
reports in reference to that divorce
case2
An exchange says that forgetting 70
pay the printer and robbing a hen roost

A Mr.. Fisher is fitting up the base
ment of Posts bank block, on Fergu-
son street, for the purpose of opening a
gun-shop therein
Manager McDaniels is putting up a
brick building III rear of his theatre,

We notice on the streets lately quite
a number of very fine root-grubbers,
corn-shellers, apple-grinders, gate-lift-
ers, double-action, b~ack-spring sod
plows-yulgarly dubbed hogs.
There will be one day for rest, recrea-

The Fort Collins Express says:
about five tons of trout have been
caught in the Cache-a-la-Poudre river at
Livermore during the season." Yes,
and more than half of the amount
named were caught by Cheyennes. J
The great fraud-the Black Hills map
in the Ogden Freeman LEADER. The
greatest one-the Freeman itself. Age.
Kerect, but we didn't think it neces-
sary to add that. The few readers of
the Freeman united in saying SO long
ago.
Boss Casswell finds an enlargement
Of his popular Oyster Bay necessary
already, and is building a fine brick
kitchen and store-room in the rear of
that establishment. He has ordered
an immense combination range for the
kitchen.
The new and handsome brick addition
to Dyer's hotel is about completed, and
Tim has received a portion of the Office

he gets fixed up.
Messrs. Finney & Warner have lately

both in the saloon and restaurant de-
partments. F. & w. will soon Open

We overheard a lady remark yester-
day: "These shoes are a mile too large"
We are curious to know how many feet
in female arithmetic make a mile, be-
cause we never met with a lady yet
whose shoes were not, to say the very
least, ga mile too big for her."
"Charley'' and ''Frenchy" have each
provided themselves with heavy hickory
clubs, to be used in case of emergency.
They don't admire being hauled up as
witnesses in some kinds of cases, and
it will be a sorry matter for the person
who attempts to serve q subpoena IN
them in the future.
With the exception of the trial of
several frail females, little was done in

to Justice Fisher FIVE dollars and costs
for disturbance and breach of thepeace.
The Wyoming D. B. c. has been
mustered out and is succeeded by the

organization composed of the best play
ers in the Magic City. At a meeting
yesterday, - Turck was elected pres

urer, and G. Washout Western Union

The Red Stockings gave the Fort
Russell Apaches a most beautiful clean
ing out on yesterday, III the match
game of base ball, the score at the close
Of the four innings which were played
standing 90 to 8 in favor Of the Reds.
The Apaches still labor under the delu-
sion that the can play base ball, and
the Reds will visit them at the Fort on
Monday next and prove the contrary
in a conclusive manner
