Make Your Wills.

1t is about time for that portion
of the people of Cheyenne who live in
two-story buildings to make their wills.
A slight earthquake shock was felt
here yesterday, and as these things gen.
orally occur from two to half a dozen
times within as many days in the same
section of country, we may expect more
The shock struck Cheyenne at 11:40
a. m., and the vibration lasted about
five seconds. The Legislature was in
session at the time, nearly all the men,
bers feeling the shock distinctly. Many
rushed to the doors in wild alright,
and q scene of confusion ensued.
Throughout the city people who were
sitting in chambers with their arms on
tables noticed but could not account
for the strange sensation otherwise
than by thinking that the buildings
were settling. Our dispatches state
that the shock was much heavier in the
Missouri valley.

Sidney He'll Hounds.

An old gentleman named Hendricks,
on his way from Salt Lake to his home
in Omaha, while at Sidney, was drug
ged and robbed of 1892, his watch and
some mining papers. This occurred
on last Saturday. On Sunday Rev.
Charles Galpin, of Des Moines, Iowa,
had his pockets picked of $50. The
thieves have the upper hand of the al
legged authorities ut Sidney, and there
is not II day, or scarce an hour, but
some unsuspecting party falls into the
hands of the foot-pads and cut-throats
who now populate that ~place-appro-
priately known as "Hell's h%alf-acre."

Blackburn and Wall.

A former employe in the harness es-
Enlistment of Gallatin & Co., of this
city, who has just returned from a hay
camp on the Cheyenne river, reports
that just after their fight with and es-
cape from Sheriff Bullock, and posse at
Crook City, "Dunk" Blackburn and
Wall, the noted road agents, were in
the hay camp and took breakfast.
Blackburn stated that he and Wall
were the lei who stopped the treasure
coach and shot Scott Davis; also that
Denny, the messenger, fired the first
shot, and did not show the white feath-
er during the fight which followed.
Blackburn also stated that he and Wall
had not secured a ''stake'' during Their
operations, owing to the fact that out
of the $4,000 taken from N coach,
81, 900 was carried off by INT of theii
comrades. The haymakers, several OF
whom were well acquainted witt
Blackburn, advised them to leave the
country at once, and they vowed that
they would do SO.

Another Brave Brakeman.

While the driver of Thorpe's hack
was away from his team for a moment
at the depot, yesterday, the horses be-
came frightened and started away at a
rapid gait. AS they reached Ferguson
street their speed increased, and at the
corner of 14th they were running at
full speed. A woman sat in the hack,
and q u. z. brakeman named Mooney,
who was crossing the street, took in
the situation ut n glance. AS the out
ft passed he seized the thorough-brace,
swinging himself upon the axle with the
grace and ease of the finished railroad
er that he is, and clambering over the
top of the hack, secured the lines and
stopped the runaways in their mad ca
reer. 1t was a noble and praiseworthy
act.

CHEYENNE, WYo.,
Nov. 15. 1877,

To The Editor Of the Leader:
Much discussion, pro. and CON-, has
been had recently in regard to a United
States law forbidding soldiers voting in
this Territory; will you please inform
your many readers whether there is
such a law in existence, and oblige
A LEGISLATOR.
In reply to the above we give the
following extract from the U. S. Re
vised Statutes, Page $50, Sec. 1860:
"No officer, soldier, seaman, mariner
or other person in the army or navy, or
attached to troops in the service of the
United States, shall be allowed to vote
in any Territory by reason of being on
service therein, unless such Territory
is, and has been for the period Of six
months, his permanent domicile."
