The tramp nuisance is becoming unbcar-
able Every day, scores of able bodied men
are providing around the premises OF orr
citizens begging. They are too lazy to work
and at this season Of the year are making
their way South, begging and stealing as they
go. In the Spring these same tramps will
make their Journey northward. 1t Is mis-
taken charity to feed these men. Nine out
OF ten are thieves. \ few nights since a
highly respected lady of our town who had
been left alone with her infant child was
rudcly insultcd and abused by one of these
scamps. The town authorities of Holly
Springs passed am ordinance directing the
constable to put all tramps found in that
city to work on the streets. The result was
that the citizens there were never afterwards
troubled with tramps. So let it be here
We call upon Our municipal authorities to
attend to the matter. The security of our

wha. Denver nas Done.

Last Thursday the officers of the
Denver and Kansas Pacific roads were
In council with the commissioners of
Arapahoe county, and the result was
an agreement, the main points of
which we give below. Aclause requir-
ing the Kansas Pacific management to
use its best endeavors to put a stop to
the work on the Longmont extension,
was debated and stricken out, from
Difference to the wishes Of the railroad
managers. Following are the points
in the new agreement:
l. The Denver Pacific agrees after
July l, 1877, to manage the road in its
own interests in fact, and not to be
subservient to the interests of any
other company or corporation (meaning
the Kansas PaciAc).
9. They agree to use their best en-.
deavors to establish a friendly connec-
ton with the Union Pacific at Chey-
enne, and to make as close connection
as possible with the latter road.
3. They agree to establish 4 uniform
schedule Of rates over their connec-
lions, by which the business interests
Of Denver and Arapahoe county may
be benefited.
4. They agree to the appointment of
a number of accountants by the county
commissioners to examine all vouchers,
| papers, books, records, ETC., i'll their
Office at any and all times that the CON-
missioners 20 desire, they to pay the
cost of such work, merely STIMULATING
that the men chosen shall not be con.
nected with any rival railroad combi.
nation.
5. That the principal offices of the
company shall be in Denver.
6. That the receipts shall be used ror
purposes pertaining directly to the road
and that the managers shall use all
honorable means TO secure trade for
Denver.
Z. The commissioners, in considera-
tion of this agreement, agree to have
the suit instituted in the district court
dismissed, after the question of juris-
diction has been determined in the
United States court, and after the
board have become satisfied that the
managers propose to live up to their
agreement. Until then the company
agrees to the suit remaining in statu
quo,

A Black Hills Ep!.aph.

The three horse-thieves recently
hung at Rapid City, Black Hills, were
buried after swinging in the wind q

On yon pine tree they hung till dead,
And here they found @ lonely bed.

For every horse you pick up here, adds SCR

For we've hemp and hands enough In town

Oh syana, linle Came.

Old John Evans, ex-governor Of COL
orado, who has been enriching himself
for years from the pockets Of the de-
luded people of Colorado, has of late
been working up a big scheme for more
plumber. He has ~endeavored to force
the Denver Pacific into the hands Of a
receiver, secure the appointment OF
himself as such receiver, and then sell
the Denver Pacific to Jay Gould, pock-
citing the proceeds Of the sale himself.
We know whereof We speak when we
say that the appointment of Gov.
Evans as receiver implies the almost
immediate transfer of the Denver Pa
cifc to the Union Pacific, the appoint
ment of President Loveland as mana
ger, and the running of passenger
trains from Golden to Cheyenne. OF
course tile governor will resent this ex.
position Of the case, but if he imagines
il cannot be sustained there is some
probability Of his being quickly unde.
ceived.
This little game has been partially
blocked by the compact published else.

have knocked the LongInont extension

The Home Concert.

Cheyenne people are being gradually
educated to a better appreciation Of
good music; at least we Judge this to
be the case from the very large attend
ance of u best people at the Home
concert last evening. And it was n
genuine home concert, given by home
talent, by bona Jfde, permanent residents
of this city. The sincere sympathy
with the singers, and the evident salts
faction at the performance, displayed
by the audience, the entire programme
being applauded to the echo, must be
4 source of qualification to Il amateur
musicians, and partial recompense for
their many sacrifices, and the time and
labor they have devoted to the cause Of
music.
The Cheyenne quartette did their
very best; but the ladies distinguished
themselves beyond the most sanguine
expectations of their friends. After
the first little nervousness disappeared,
they felt perfectly at home on the stage,
and rendered some choice selections
with skill, and remarkably fine voices.
There is one thing Cheyenne audi
ences have yet to learn, and that is to
be content with the programme as
printed Except in rare instances), and
not to insist By rude and noisy demon
stration upon encores or additions to
the evenings entertainment. They pay
for q certain amount Of entertainment,
as laid down in the printed programme,
and they have no right to demand
more; it is unjust to the musicians,
whose endurance in these cases Is taxed
to the utmost, and should not be coun-
tenanced by the managers. We trust
this practice will he abandoned In the
futnrP,

4 Kentucky Eieud.

y horrible story of mans inhuman
hatred for a fellow-creature comesfrom
Maysville, KY. Levi Ball had furnish
ed the family of James C. Owens with
supplies to the amount of 5000, and,
finding it impossible to collect, brought
a suit. Recovering Il verdict, he levied
on Ovens property, which was released
ON q CLAIMANTS bond, and on that Ball
also secured u Judgment. These vari-
Gus proceedings aroused Owens to a
pitch of madness, and he swore to kill
Ball. Every insult he could devise he
cast upon his prospective victim to win
some ~provocation, and finally he assert
ed his intention of pouring the contents
of his shotgun, which he had charged
with forty slugs, into Balls system. a
few days ago he met Ball and common
ced his abuse again, ~whereupon Ball
fired four shots, MORALLY wounding his
vindictive enemy. On his deathbed
Owens went into commissions at the
suggestion that he must die before kill
ing the object of hatred, and when he
recovered he exacted with his dying
breath a solemn oath from his 17-year-
old son that he would never rest until
he had sent Ball to his grave. Upon
the trial of Ball fertile shooting, he
was promptly acquitted.

The Army Appropriation sin.

The opinion is expressed In military
circles that the regular army %appropria-
tion bill will not be passed soon after
the extra session of Congress convenes
on the 18th of October next. 1t seems
to be the impression that a joint reso.
luton will be passed loon after that
date appropriating necessary money to
pay the rank and file of the army, but
on account of the determined effort to
reduce the army the regular %appropria-
tion bill may be put off until the last
Of the extra session or the first of the
regular session.

Pea Picture Of psadwood.
Everybody busy in Deadwood and

Everybody busy In Deadwood and
surrounding country. Teams of mules,
ponies and oxen, moving to and fro,
through the public streets, hauling
heavy freight and merchandise. Car
penters are building new, and remodel
ing old buildings, to meet the increas-
ing demand for stores and private resi-
dences. Crowds of immigrants are
daily arriving and pitching their tents
in the suburbs of Deadwood. These.
in contrast with the growing foliage
that adorns the valleys and mllsides,
lend the appearance Of an immense
beehive in a flower garden. Every
available place in the city is occupied
as a store, and the corner of the street
and intervening places between build
ings, besides small shops on wheels, are
filled with merchandise, a~uctioneers
and samplers. Through this rush and
confusion, this excitement only expert
enced in mining camps, it Is surprising
to note the degree of order that pre-
walls. Petty thieving is about the only
annoyance, and the perpetrators of
these small crimes are usually captured
before they have an opportunity to
secrete either themselves or their plum
der. 1t has been said of us abroad
that street murders are of daily occur
rence This we denounce as infamous
ly false; and the authors of such lies
are unworthy the name of men-are
but vile slanderers. Taken as q whole,
town is as orderly and quiet as most
of the New England towns. [B. II.
