imported Havana cigar that tastes of
tobacco.
Con Waldraven has begun the erec-
tion Of a brick store-room on the va
cant lot adjoining the Carey block, on
Seventeenth street.
Dwelling houses are still in active de-
mand here. Men with loose capital
cannot employ it to better advantage
than by building in the Magic City.
The bills allowed by the Council last
night will empty the treasury, and
councilmen gaze at each other and ask
s'what are we going to do about it?"

Subscriptions to the WEEKLY LEAD

weekly published in the west. A sub

The Germania club, pleased with the
success of their grand bal masqus given

Birthington's Wash-day, or something

There is no more room in Cheyenne
for men out Of work and out Of money.
Our clerks, bcok-keepers, porters, team
sters, and in fact all our laboring men

have the earliet news within our grasp.

look through u filthy alleys they will
find something that demands immedi-
ate attention. Next week we shall take

who have sworn to enforce the ordi-
nances of the city.
