MACALLISTER.


Again is Cheyenne IGNORED with the
presence of royalty. This time it is a
scion of the noble house of Hapsburg,
the head of which is Francis Joseph,
Emperor Of Austria. The gentleman
under notice arrived here on last eve
ning's Denver Pacific train. He travels
under the name of Count Potocki, and
is accompanied by General c. J. L.
Cook, and Count Dropojowski, his tu-
tor, a gentleman, who, by-the-way, has
a very poor opinion Of America and
Americans. We can stand it, however,
if Count Drop-jaws-and-Ki-y can.
The party have seen the Centennial,
traversed the East and South, and
within the past few weeks, gazed upon
grand scenery in all parts of Colorado,
and are now en- route to the Pacific
coast, whence they will proceed west
ward until a tour of the globe is COM
pleted.
Gen. Cook, their guide, was an officer
of the Confederate army during the late
unpleasantness, serving for a long time
on Stonewall Jackson's staff. He left
this country with Gen. Breckenridge, of
war renown, going to France, and has
since spent several years in Europe.
He is a learned linguist, has talents in
this line securing him the position of
chief interpreter of the Vienna World
Exposition. While in Kansas, hunting
buffalo, a war party of Cheyenne In
dams surprised the party, and a bullet
from the rifle of a savage wounded
Gen. Cook in the left arm, the arm be-
ing still quite helpless from the effects
of the wound. All go west to-day.

Sioux Strategy.

That the Sioux were thoroughly
posted on the movements Of Custer,
Gibbon and Terry, is evidenced from
the fact that their scouts were in view
from the time Terry's column struck
the Yellowstone; the time Custer moved
up the Rosebud, and Gibbon up the
Yellowstone. On one occasion, partic-
ularly, when Lieut.. Doane and a small
party went out a short distance on a
hunt for buffalo, under the direction of
Taylor, the guide and chief scout, on
killing a few buffalo, Taylor saw fifteen
Sioux at a considerable distance, and
called the attention of Lieut.. Doane to
them, when the latter assembled an emf
nence, from which he observed them
more particularly, and could determine
from their conduct that they were
scouts-not hunters. It is therefore
evident that the Sioux left the Rosebud
for military reasons, and to draw Gus
ter further from his base and from aid,
and from every show of escape. 1t is
believed that the village contained but
few squaws and children; and was a
concentration Of warriors alone, with
enough old squaws to make moccasinf
and do the drudgery Of camp; and that
the village contained eight or ten thou
sand warriors instead Of two Thousand
five hundred as was at first stated.

Illegal.

In Evanston there have recently been
issued by merchants, paper bills, imita-
ting greenbacks, which, however, do
not purport to be United States cur
rency. On the back is printed a notice,
which reads:
This bill is good for five per cent. in
payment for a cash purchase made of
me, amounting to three dollars or up
wards. But one bill will be redeemed
on each purchase (Signature)
1t is the opinion of good lawyers that
the issuance of these bills is illegal, and
we understand that a fine has recently
been imposed on a man who uttered
some Of them. The section of the Re
vised Statute which applies to then, pro-
vides a penalty not to exceed $500 fine
and a maximum imprisonment of six
months, for making, issuing or circula-
ting any note, check, memorandum OF
token for a less sum than one dollar, in
tended to circulate as money, or to be
received or used in lien of lawful money
of the United States.
