BRIGHAM y n WILL.

Brigham Young has left a will, and
that instrument was read in the pres
ence of his numerous family on Mon
day. John w. Young, the First Coun-
selor and the favorite son, is left with
out a cent. Not even has he a house
in which to live, as u portion Of the
patrimony. His name does not once
occur in the will.
Among the recitals, Joseph A.
Young, deceased, is brought in debt
to the amount of 500, 600.
To Lucy, one of the Prophets numer-
Gus concubines, he b%equeaths $50, 600,
and to Clara, another %concubine, he
gives $50 1000, and to n of these the
Bee Hive House. To Amelia, his
favorite, he gives the use of the large
building commonly known as the
''Amelia Palace" to extend through
her natural life. and upon her death it
reverts to the church, after which 1t is
to be used as a retreat for the crowned
heads of the world upon the occasion Of
their visits to Zion. George Q. Cannon
holds the property to the use Of Amelia.
Mary Ann Angel, his first and only
legal wife, receives the White House
on the hill, the same building now &C.
cupied by John w. Young.
The Sword Bearer, VIM. Rossiter, is
indirectly favored; $1,000 is given to an
adopted daughter whom Rossiter is
soon to add to his harem.
Brigham, jr., who is n of the ex-
ecutors, is handsomely provided for.
He is to receive three per cent. of the
income of the entire property, which
will bring him in from SO, 000to $40, DOC

wan.ed-A Fire Department.

One of Cheyenne's greatest needs at
the present writing is a well organized
and efficient fire department-such a
one, for instance, as Denver possesses.
OF course volunteer fire companies are
not reliable or efficient, as a rule, but
we cannot as yet afford a paid fire de-
partment, and we must creep until we
get strong enough to walk. We have
two hose carts, and when the new
water works are in working order two
hose companies should be organized.
The Hook and Ladder company should
be recognized and completely outfitted
with ladders, buckets, etc, the hose
put in good shape or replaced by new
if necessary, and the Council should
take active and thorough measures to
put competent men in charge of all
apparatus, with a strong-nerved and
clear-headed chief engineer over all. We
cannot afford to neglect this important
matter, and we trust that the Council,
at its meeting tonight, will make a
move toward the organization and
equipment Of a irst-class fire depart
ment.

Yesterday morning n waiter girl

been long in the city, went into Hurl-
butts drug store and purchased twenty
grains of morphine. Repairing to her
home in a building on the alley between
Hill land Ransom, 18th and 18th streets,
she wrote a long letter to q lover who
recently east her of, n brief note to a
female companion in vice, and then
swallowed the entire contents Of the
bottle. The sleep of death followed.
Soon after 4 O'Clock in the afternoon
her female friend called ut the room
and found Emma, then cold and almost
dead. DIR. Joseph was Immediately
summoned, and tried for two hours to

that the vote of the latter place may

electing the former and defeating the
latter. With Upper Horse Creek to

majority over Mr.. Hecht; but it is ex-

A few years ago august Flower

Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, a few
thin Dyspeptics made known to their
friends how easily and quickly they
had been cured by its use. The great

Never fool round with your landlady.

is to keep on moving around, keep

letter from J. A. Williamson, Commits
sioner of the General Land Office:
Section 1928 of the revised statutes
of the United States provides that the
owners Of n tunnel run for the develop
ment of a vein or lode, or for the dis
covery Of mines ''shal have the right
Of possession Of all the veins or lodes
within three hundred feet from the face
of such tunnel on the line thereof not
previously known to exist, discovered
IA such tunnel, to the same extent as
if discovered from the surface
Section 9 1920 revised statutes provides
that ''no location Of a mining claim
shall be made until the discovery Of the
vein or lode within the limits the claim
located" and declares the width Of
surface ground which may he embraced
by a location. ID.
Section 1922 provides that locations
SO long as they comply with the laws of
the United States and with State,
Territorial and local regulations not in
conflict with the laws of the United
| States governing their possessory title,
'sshall have the exclusive right Of pos
session and enjoyment of all the surface
included within the lines Of their loca-
tions, and of all veins, lodes and lodges
throughout their entire depth, the top
or apex of which lies inside Of such
surface lines extending downward YER
tically. although such veins, lodes or
lodges may so far depart from q per-
pendicular in their course downward
as to extend outside the vertical side
lines of such surface location; "
and nothing in this section shall au-
thorize the locator or possessor of a vein
or lode which extends in its downward
course beyond the vertical lines of his
claim owned or possessed by another.
Section 1925 provides that a patent
for any land located for valuable de
posits may be obtained in the manner
therein provided, by any person, asso-
citation or corporation authorized to
locate a claim, who have ''claimed and
located a piece of land for such pur-
poses"
This section also requires the plat and
field notes to show ''~accurately the
boundaries of the claim or claims,
which shall be distinctly marked by
monuments OIL the ground, +" and makes
it the duty of the applicant to post a
copy of the plat and notice upon the
Gland embraced in such plat"
From the foregoing provisions of law,
it will be seen that no patent can issue
for a vein or lode without surface
ground, and as the surface which over
lies the apex of vein or lode discovered
in a tunnel can only be a~scertained by
sinking a shaft or by following a lode
up on its dip from the point of discov.
cry, a survey of a lode of this kind can
not be properly made until it has been
definitely determined, as above indica-
ted, what portion of the public domain
overlies the apex of such lode.

Mr.. Luke Voorhees,, who was at Red
Cloud on Monday and Tuesday last,
saw the movement Of the troops sent
to capture Crazy Horse when he started
for Spotted Tail. The valley at the
Agency is very wide, and the six CON-
panies of cavalry and two of infantry,
withitwo Gatling guns and several him.
dred armed Indian soldiers, made u
most imposing display. They were
spread out on each side of the river and
moved down the valley in good style.
The effect was to cause all the Indians
around to mount and ride to the Agen-
cy as quickly as possible, and within an
hour fully five thousand had congregat-
ed around the Agency buildings.
Big Little Man, stripped to the buff,
rode at the head of the red cavalry,
nearly all of his followers being also
naked. When the column reached
Crazy Horses village, several miles be-
low the Agency, and discovered that
he had gone, a squad Of cavalry, with
Big Little Man and a force of Indian
soldiers was dispatched toward Spotted
Tail, and the main body Of the COM
mand moved back to camp, reaching
there just as Mr.. Voorhees, took the
stage to leave.
Mr.. Voorhees, saw Gen. Bradley, COM
manding Camp Robinson, just before
leaving and the General said that every
thing was quiet and that he anticipated
no further trouble.
