The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1876-09-24

He, together with Gov. r. NJ Stew
art, built the st. Joseph and Denver
City railroad from this point to Troy,
Kan, a distance of IA miles, at their
own expense, aided only by what little
they could procure from the citizens.
The first cars run over the road were
borrowed by him from the Hannibal
and st. JOSEPH company. After retir-
ing from the mayoralty of the city he
went into the real estate business with
Col. HarbiDe, remaining in this occu-
patton until the breaking out of the
war, when he went south and wasmade
brigadier general of the Missouri State
the struggle. He served throughout
the late civil war on the Confederate
side, and took a very active part
Throughout. In the latter part Of 1862
he was captured and kept prisoner
over year at Johnson's Island and at
Fort Delaware He was afterward sent
to Charleston. S. c. There he was ex-
changed, and afterward returned to
Missouri. He immediately took charge
of his old brigade, but was afterwards
transferred to Shelby's brigade, which
he commanded in Prices last raid in
Missouri. He was the last Confederate
General to surrender west of the Missis-
sippi river. After the close of the war
he went to Memphis, Tenn, where he
was engaged in the commission business
for short time. He then went to New
Orleans and was there made chief engi-
neer Of the state by appointment of Gov.
Warmoth in 1867, which position he
held up to the time of his death.

The Eject Of Astonishment.

He walked into the drug store, OBJ

said:

the boy.

The bov put the glass under the fau-
Get and turned on the soda water full
head. As it stauck the glass with a
kissing sound the stranger said:
''Gosh all Jerusalem; what's that?'
and starting backwards, fell over stool,
and as he tried to get up he brushed
against a perfumery stand, which caus-
ed a bottle to fail off and strike him on
the back of the head. At the same time
the boy, thinking something serious had
happened dropped the glass on the mar
BILE counter, breaking it into ninety-nine
pieces. The stranger with his hand to
the back of his head, and his eyes pro-
truding with fright, started for the door
at speed of twenty miles an hour, and
ran plump into the arms of policeman,
who collared him, and said:

THE OLD STORY.

Aiken county, South Carolina Ham
burg), has been the scene of a second
negro massacre. The horrors of July
were duplicated last Sunday. Our infor-
nation comes wholly from rebel sources,
but the last sentence Of the dispatch
tells the story:
The latest report from the scene of
the riot is that one white man was
wounded and six negroes killed.
No doubt when the details of the
affair become known, it will be seen
that this second Aiken county massacre
was as inexcusable as the first one was.
1t was another illustration of the truth
SO aptly put by Colonel Ingersoll in the
remark:
They tell US that the colored men are
treated very well. Oh, yes, very WE'LL
l read every little while of two peacea-
BILE white men going along not think
ing of anything, las harmless and inoffen-
sive as lambs, and they are approached
by ten or twelve negroes, and the ten or
twelve negroes are shot, but the two
peaceful white men don't get scratch.
dust; it is infamous.
No wonder the humor of the orator,
which bubbled up for second, sudden
ly gave place to the most solemn seri-
BUSINESS. We pity and despise the man
who could dwell for moment upon this
subject without having his indignation
aroused.
Such things are occurring continual
ly. They are the natural, inevitable
result of the doctrines generally taught
by the Democracy of the South that, as
the Holly Springs Mass. Reporter puts
it: ''Niggers belong in the cotton and
rice, tobacco and corn6elds, not in polit-
ical conventions, legislatures, nor on
juries." So long as the rebel element feel
that way, they will be continually goad-
ed by the notion that the colored people
do not keep their place" The party
which supports Tilden and Hendricks
entertains the views expressed by the
Reporter, and negro massacres result as
inevitably as darkness follows sunset.

Death Of Confederate Hero in st. Joseph
Prominent Points in His Eventful
Life.

Gen. NJ. JEFF Thompson is dead. He
breathed his last at p minutes past 3
O'Clock yesterday afternoon in his room
at the Pacific house, after an illness of
four or five months with that wasting
disease, consumption, brought on by
exposure.
There are few men so well known in
the section of the country west of the
Mississippi river as was Gen. NJ. JEFF
Tnomi son.
He was born at Harper's Ferry, Va,
22d of January, 1897, where he resided
until 1888, When his mother died. He
left home, and moving to Charleston, a
small village few miles distant, occu-
pied a position in q store until he was
lS years old, when he removed to Phil
adelphia and embarked in similar
pursuit. He remained there a couple of
years and then came to Missouri, set
Ting in Liberty, Clay county, in 1916,
and shortly after came to st. Joseph,
occupying position with the firm Of
Middleton s. Riley. His education was
quite limited, he having left school at
the early age of fifteen. He, however,
manifested desire to study and i'm
prove himself, and taking liking to
civil engineering, he exerted his ener-
gies in that direction. Having been in
business short time for himself, in
1850 he quit to go out with surveying
party on the present line of the Hanni-
bal and st. Joseph road. y He remained
with the party until the road was COM
pleted, III 1856 or 1856, and returned
to st Joseph. Here he was appointed
city engineer, and served with great
satisfaction for one or two terms.
When the river began washing in ut
that point, the dykes were built by him
and many other lasting and noteworthy
improvements were made by him while
he served as engineer and as m yor. In
1850 he was elected by a handsome ma
iority mayor Of the city.

Six Monster Sea Lions.

To the observant mind, and espec-
ially to the lover Of the wild and
curious in animated nature, there are,
perhaps, TO objects of more absorbing
interest that these great amphibious
monsters Of the frozen seas, known in
common parlance as ''Sea Lions"
Although thriving by thousands in the
waters of their nativity, instances of
their capture and exhibition have been
exceedingly rare. 1t is true that I'M
infsrmed exhibitors have frequently
displayed to public curiosity the COM
mon Phoca, or Seal, as the Sea Lion,
and thus many are led to believe that
they have seen the true sea lion, when
in reality they have witnessed quite a
different animal. The management OF
the Great International are confident
IN the assertion that the sea monsters IN
their collection are the only genuine
ones IN captivity in the United States

ST. PAUL, August l0.-Gsneral For
syth, OF General Sheridsn's staff. passed
through the city yesterday. having left
Terry s camp at the mouth of the Bose
bud week ago last Tuesday. In con-
versation with army officers here, Gem
eral Forsyth corrected several erroneous
statements recently telegraphed from
bismarck and forwarded from this point.
II was stated that General Terry had
fallen back so miles, which is merely
nonsense and gives false impression to
the public. There was nc falling back
at all. The evening before General For
syth left General Terry. scout from
General Crooks command reached Gen.
erai Terry. Crook was then somewhere
near the head waters Of the Rosebud
River, or between that and Tongue
River. Now at this time. General Terry
was at the mouth of the Big Horn River.
and In order to make Communication be-
tween him and General Crook, he
dropped down the river to the mouth
OF the Rosebud, between which point
1870
lance was no greater than from the
mouth of the Big Horn, while the coan-
try to be traversed was infinitely more
favorable to the march of the troops.
Besides this, the scout alluded to, fur
nished the news that Indian trails
bad been found leading toward the east
between General Crook and the Yellow
stone and the junction of General Terry
and Crook at point further east than
the Big Horn was likely to prevent the
escape of the Indians to the east and
north OF the present scene of operation.
Another misstatement found is to the
effect that the troops under General
Terry are disheartened at the prospect
before them. Colonel Smith, who &C.
companied General Forsythe, contra
diets this baseless story; on the contrary
General Terry and his men are in the
best possible spirits and are only too anx-
ious to meet horde of savages in fair
and square fight. There is no fear as to
the result. The Indians, as far as could
te learned, were still supposed to be
massed somewhere between the Rose
Bud river and the Big Horn. The i'm
preston still prevailed that one of the
two alternative was left: either scatter to
the eastward and toward British America
or to the southwark to the Big Horn
Mountains. II is thought they were in
front or in close proximaty to General
Crooks command. 1t is not believed
that they will show fight or allow Gen
erals Crook or Terry to get a chance at
them in body.
CHICAGO. Aug. 10.-The Times Fort
Sully dispatch says Indians from the
hostile camp have arrived with reports
that Terry's command had encountered
the hostiles and the latter had been
hanked by General Gibbon and badly
beaten. The Indians acknowledge 100
wounded and say Sitting Bull has been
shot through both thighs. They are
quiet on the subject of the number
killed. An Indian can travel by direct
route from Sitting Bull to the agency
sooner by several days than courier
could reach Bismarck from Terry. The
report is generally believed here.
