A wori from Fanny and Dick,

Mrs. Fanny Brown, nee Garrettson,
writes from Deadwood to THE LEADER
that she has been wofully misrepresent-
ed by the newspapers. While pleading
guilty to the charge of being a s.noto-
rious'' woman, she denies the published
statement that she was ONCE legally
married to Edward shaughnessy, there
fore claiming her right to marry Dick
Brown. Fanny eonfesses that she s,lived
WITH Shaughnessy three years, and as
serts that during that time she worked
hard and contributed her earnings to-
ward his support, receiving in return
abuse and the knowledge that he gam
bled Away her money.
Her husband, Dick Brown, also de-
sires it stated, in justice to himself, that
he took pains TO ascertain that Fanny
had never been married to Shaughnessy
before marrying her himself.
THE LEADER has now given botl
sides of the story, and the public car
pass judgment at pleasure.

The Sioux delegation Which recently
visited the Indian Territory, had a fall
ing out o. their way home, Just after
leaving the Union Pacific for Red Cloud.
II ens that in some Unexplained man
ner the Indians had come into posses
sion of a quantity Of liquor and had be-
come quite hilarious, 50 much 50 that
they laid aside their charming reserve
and knew all about their recent trip to
the Indian Territory. Every last devil
Of them held a full hand of opinions,
and on several occasions a half dozen Of
the copper-stained imps insisted on de-
~claring their opinions at the same time.
The Brules and Red Cloud Indians
never did like each other to any alarm
ing extent, and the two gangs handled
this removal question very energetically
for a while, and then they Threatened
to handle each other Just as i~iercely.
The Red Cloud outfit said they were
willing and anxious to go to their new
reservation, comply with the wishes OF
the government and should so report at
their council when the band reached
home. They also said they didn't rec
ognize Mr.. Spotted Tail as their chief.
and wouldn't do what be wanted any
way l
The Spotted Tail faction said they
wouldn't leave their present locations;
that the government was fooling them,
that the Brules had to obey old Spot,
and that they would not hold a council
with the Red Cloud bronzes when they
reached the agencies. The Red Cloud
gang retorted by saying that the Spot
company would havecto go to the Indi-
an Territory, and they were glad of it.
Then the noble children glared and
growled and spat at each other, and but
for the active efforts of the interpreters
would have INDUCED in a first-class cut
ting scrape. The stream of anger was
bank full and very turbulent. Not
until after midnight did the solid braves
cease their pickering and lay down to
troubled dreams.

LARAMIE LINES.
F-t. IT'D ~
Rambling Notes From the Suburb "oyer
's-2g the Hill"
LARAMIE crFr, WYoAING,
December 18th, 1876.

LARAMIE CFFf, WY0AING,
December 18th, lsT6.
10 de Editor Of lie LeadeY:
OF course there can be but little in a
town as small as Laramie, that would
interest the general reader, yet, as most
OF the reliable and recent news comes
through TIE LEADER 10 those living
here, a few lines upon local affairs are
not out Of place.
There seems to be a sort of drought
peryading everything in Laramie just
at present. Business, politics and re-
ligion are all suffering. Perhaps no
better illustration of the dullness OF
business here can be given than that
men going to the Black Hills from this
place always 90 20 Cheyenne to get Their
outfits.
Thanksgiving evening the firemen
gave q ball, and the ladies of the Metho-
dist Society made a supper, from which,
at fifty cents a meal, they realized near
ly a hundred dollars. OF course, it
kept many Of the ladies up past Metho-
dist hours, yet, as the money poured in,
there was method in it. Last night the
Baptist Society gave an entertainment,
and will repeat it tonight, and the
Hethodists give a dime reading al their
church; while the Episcopal Society
have a social at a private residence, at
which ten cents is the smallest sum a
person is supposed to give.
The Baptist people are without a
pastor. The churches are rather in.
clined to want to monopolize the
amusement business. We have a sort
of theatre here, which furnishes the fur
for the men from the mountains.
Sheep herders, tie men, mule SINNERS,
bull whackers and cow punchers like
the theatre best. because there are wine
and women there, and solemnly declare
that if the church-goers break up the
place they won't go to Sunday school,
but will visit Cheyenne to have their
fun Indeed they. are somewhat dis
posed to do 70 anyhow, because of late
the marsharof the town and the police
judges seem to be short of funds, and
are after these men whenever they
come into town to get a drink. The
marshal always finds out first whether
they are broke or not. The Authorities
undertook to make a dollar from people
owning family cows, by putting them
in the pound when they were let out
to get water, and on the way to and
from their pastures, but the roa
populi was too strong, SO the effort
was abandoned So long, J.B.

Notes from the Northland.

Mr.. w. H. Hubbard, the protector of
the now completed Cheyenne and Black
Hills telegraph line, returned on Thurs
day last from Deadwood, where he wit
messed the finishing of the line, and
was appropriately honored by the citi-
zens of the Hills in their jollifcation
over the completion of the enterprise.
Mr.. Hubbard has devoted much time
and labor to the work, and will, we
hope, receive his reward in the near fu-
ture.
James HALEY, Esq, late chief opera
tor in. the Western Union Office here;
has been appointed manager of the Office
at Deadwood, and exercises a general
supervision over all the Offices on the
line.
Mr.. Hubbard states that the rush to
the new discoveries on Beaver creek
and in the Wolf mountains has about
ended. Nothing definite has been heard
from the men who have gone to the new
mines, but the best evidence of the fact
that something good has been found
out there is the fact that parties fire.
quently come in to Deadwood from the
west, lay in a supply of provisions, and
depart secretly.
The road between here and Deadwood
is i splendid condition. andthe weather
continues mild and pleasant Tho rood
is lined with men and teams, all en-
route to the Hills, MI. Hubbard says.

The territory on our southwestern
border, where the peculiar institution
has gained a foothold, gains a larger
percentage of recruits among the Danes
than of any other nation, and a Danish
newspaper is regularly published at
Salt Lake city. Since the separation of
Schleswig-H olstein from Denmark, the
recruiting ground of the Mormons has
been reduced, as their preaching has
been rigidly suppressed in those duch-
les. OF late years the immigration into
Utah from.the European missions has
varied from one to four thousand per-
sons annually.
