A Horny Harangue.

A new and novel industry, which
is destinedt to attain large proportions,
has Just been started here. A few
weeks ago some teamsters who freight
between this city and the Indian
agencies, suggested to interested par
ties that it would be a good idea to
have the idle men out there set at
work gathering up the horns of dead
cattle, of which there are thousands
upon thousands scattered over the
plains surrounding those Indian feed
ing places. The suggestion was at
once acted upon, and has resulted in
the shipment of upwards CT rs, 900
pounds of this novel article of COM
merce, already. Mr.. F. L. Sigel, a
hide dealer here, has contracted for
100, 600 pounds of horns, and it is
estimated that at least half a million
pounds will be shipped from here
during the next six months. A fair
share will undoubtedly return in the
shape of buttons, combs, etc.

McDaniels, New Theatre.

This popular theatre, now the only
place of amusement in Cheyenne
which is open all the year round, is
in the full tide of success. Mr. Nc
Daniels understands how to cater to
the tastes of the Cheyenne public.
No travelling combination can com
pare with the present variety COM
pany engaged at this establishment.
First on the list is Middle Cerito.
Although this is the sixth week of
her engagement, her popularity is
unabated. There seems to be no end
to her specialties. To say the least,
she is a magnificent artistic.
Miss Mattice, one ofthe few really
good serio-comic vocalists, is still as
great u favorite as ever
Other members ofthe company are
all good. James Martin deserves
great praise for his able management
of the entire stage, besides being
himself a clever comedian, and needs
no special mention.

James Jamboree.

On Sunday, June 10th, that noto-
rious female, Calamity Jane, greatly
rejoiced over her release from du-
rance vile, procured a horse and
buggy from Jas. Abney's stable, os-
tensibly to drive to Fort Russell and
back. By the time she had reached
the Fort, however, indulgence in fire.
quent and liberal 'potations COM
pletely befogged her not very clear
brain, ana she drove right by that
place, never drawing rein until she
reached the Chug, so miles distant.
Continuing to imbibe bugjuice at
close intervals and in large quaint
ties throughout the night, she woke
up the next morning with a vague
idea that Fort Russell had been re-
moved, but being still bent on find
ing it, she drove on, finally sighting
Fort Laramie, 80 miles distant.
Reaching there she discovered her
mistake. but didn't show much dis
appointment. She turned her horse
out to grass, ran the buggy into q
corral, and began enjoying life in
camp after her usual fashion. When
Joe Rankin reached the Fort, several
days later, she begged of him not to
arrest her, and as he had no author
ity to do SO, he merely took charge
of the Abneys outfit, which was
brought back to this city Sunday.

Chasing a Wife.

II. I. Clarke, writing from Sidney
Crossing, under date Of June 18th,
to a friend in Omaha, says:
"The outfit that crossed the river
here on the Bird from the Black Hills,
at the time you were here, had with
them a woman and her child. The
woman, as it has since turned out,
was running away from her husband
with another man.
Her husband started in pursuit
from Deadwood on horseback without
a gun, or a revolver, or a knife. He
left Deadwood Friday night, June
I'd, and crossed the river here on the
9Th, making the trip in two day,
without sleep or rest. He traded
horses several times on the road. He
swore vengeance on dot tam son Of
a beach vat run'd off nit his frou'.
He was a German, and evidently
meant business.
He told the men here that he saw
nine men take out fifteen pounds Of
gold in one day on the Deadwood,
and that everybody is getting lots Of
gold"

S. ID. Lutes, who accompanied
Gen. Gibbons Big Horn expedition
and returned With the wagon train,
states that on the LIST of june Gen
eral Gibbons command camped
shout thirty miles north Of Tongue
river awaiting the advance of Terry
and Crook. No Indians, except in
small squads, had been The
men were living on half rations, and
the horses were getting poor. The
supply train recently sent down has
probably reached the command. 1t
was met near Pompey's Pillar on the
29th. Col. Chesnut's boat was met
within two hours run of the COM
mand. He was the bearer of dis
patches to Gen. Gibbon, the boat be-
ing loaded with vegetables, &c.
In passing Fort Pease, Mr.. Lutes
says, it was on fire, a great portion
of it being burnt. Fresh Indian
tracks were e around it.
On the 23d Of May, privates Sto-
ker and II. Rainier, of Co. III, I'd
cavalry, and James Quinn, a citizen
employed as teamster, were out hunt
ing, and when about two miles from
the command, they came upon a
party of Indians in ambush, and were
all instantly killed. The Indians al
lowed them to approach so close to
where they were concealed that
Quinn's breast was burnt by the
powder of the savages' guns.
1t would appear from this that the
Indians are closely watching every
movement of Gen. Gibbons COM
mand, and will pick off every man
who ventures outside of the picket
lines. Bozeman on. IT, Avant Cou-

Black Hills To-Day.
The talented and popular Ian
grishe troupe, which has been de-
lighting our theatre-goers for the
past three weeks, will to-day take up
the line of march northward on a
most c~ommendable errand. The
troupe goes direct to Deadwood City
where it will open the pioneer thea
tire of u northern Golconda. Eve
ry preparation for a comfortable and
pleasant trip has been made ; a good
ly store of choice provisions has been
provided, the huge tent in which the
entertainments will be given has been
pack ed, and an outfit most complete
in every detail is loaded upon the
wagons which are to convey the COM
pany direct to Deadwood City, the
metropolis of the fabulously rich
Deadwood region.
The troupe is a very talented and
complete one. Mr.. and Mrs. Ian
grishe are too well known through
out the west TO need any praise at
our hands. Miss Burlington and
Miss Gallagher, who have been
members of the troupe during their
stay here, and who have plucked up
plenty of courage for the long and
arduous journey, have been fayorites
since their first appearance, and will
not fail to make themselves popular
with the miners. The other ladies
and gentlemen OF the troupe have
been carefully selected from the best
theatres of the leading eastern cit
les. All are artists of great merit
and conno fail to attract and please
the hardy miners who are delving in
the bowels of the Black Hills and
bringing forth their rich treasures.
We can congratulate the denizens
of the Golden Mecca toward which
the eye of the nation is directed, up
on the acquisition awaiting them in
the amusement line. We know that
they will crowd the ~capacious tent
and thus fill the Golfers Of the man.

In conclusion, we bid the members
of the Langrishe troupe adieu, wish

and hoping that they will soon
return to again appear before their
