The COMING Base Ball Excursion.

Official correspondence with the Des-
eret Base Ball club, of Salt Lake, in
forms President Glover, of the Red
Stockings, that a sum sufficient to pay
the fare of our club both ways has been
deposited with the U. p. agent at
Ogden, and ample provision made for
entertaining the Reds at Salt Lake and
Ogden. On Monday next our club will
leave here for the land of Brigham, and
there play a series of three games with
the Deserets. Returning they will stop
off wherever local clubs offer Sufficient
inducements, and show the rural BALI
tossers how to play. The time of
absence will be made IS short as posi-
BILE, owing to the fact that the members
of our club have plenty of business at
home.

The conIas wsisr WORKS.

A new and substantial house has
been erected beside the old one, at the
railroad reservoir, and a new and pow
erful pump and boiler is now being set
up therein. The pump, which was in
vented by Mr.. j. T. Clark, and manu-
featured by Pangborn s. Clark, at
Galesburg, ILL.,, is about the simplest
and yet most complete which we have
ever seen. 1t has double cylinders,
working very much like a locomotive,
and combines power, durability and
simplicity in an eminent degree. When
the new pump is ready for business it
will be started up, and the old one
stopped and left idle.
The ditch for the new pipe, or that
part of it which the railroad company
contracts to lay, is well under way, and
the pipe will be laid this week. There
will be no delay on the part Of the
Union Pacific in fulfilling its contract,
and as soon as the City Council moves
in the matter, we shall have water
wherever we want it.

ROAD AGENTS ON THE SIDNEY ROUTE.
They Locate at French Greek and Bull
Doze Two Coaches.

The Deadwood Times of July 18th
says:
TUESDAY nights coach going east
was stopped nea French Creek by five
masked robbers about II O'Clock, mid
night. There were no passengers
aboard, and no money in the treasure
box, so they ordered the driver to pass
on. The robber opened the lock of the
treasure box with a skeleton key, and
made inquiries about the north bound
coach, at what time it would be along,
etc., to which they received an answer
that it was neal at hand, that they
would meet in half an hours drive.
They ordered the driver to proceed,
after cursing him for their misfortune
in not finding the prize. Upon meeting
of the coaches, the Deadwood bound
was informed of the attempted robbery,
and the northern bound coach drove to
French creek ranch and stopped over
night. While the passengers and
driver were in ambush watching the
coach, they heard the robbers lowering
about, giving signals, etc., but did
not venture an attack, knowing full
well that a little play was behind the
scene, in readiness for them. George
Caruthers, one of the passengers of the
Deadwood bound coach, says that at
French creek awaiting the action of the
robbers, they distinctly saw at a dis
lance of about twenty rods the four
robbers moving along. Between the
flashes of lightning their motions and
gestures were plainly visible. The four
men were on foot but the fifth was on
horseback. He came riding up near
the place where the passengers were
concealed, looked around the premises,
gave two distinct whistles and disap-
peared. Mr.. Caruthers entreated his
companions to open fire upon them, but
they refused to do so, fearing they might
hurt somebody

pressed spirits, billiousness, etc., can

Thay .0lda't- Go West.

Three gentlemen who came up from
Denver yesterday, en- route to Califor-
MIA, and intending to connect with the
regular west bound u. P. express, are
still in Cheyenne. They didn't go
west. Not because they didn't arrive
here on time, or didn't get their din
ners in time, but simply owing to the
fact that they lost all ''gumption"
while gazing at the sights of the Magic
City, and the train went off and left
them.
They stood on the platform waiting
when No. 8 came in-stood there with
eyes and mouth wide open, and when
the conductor yelled ''al aboard" they
walked up to look at the engines. for
getting that their baggage was still at
the hotel. The train started and the
trio climbed on. Before going far a
happy thought seemed to strike each
one, so they plunged off upon the plat
form and made a grand rush for their
valises. When they emerged from the
hotel the e a a was passing the stage
Office, but they did not doubt their abil-
ity to catch it. Shouting and swinging
their hats and valises they ran away
out almost to the Crow creek bridge
before they could realize that the train
was indeed leaving them, and they then
stopped and turned back, frequently
casting lingering glances upon the rear
sleeper as it plunged into the hills west
of Crow creek. There was a large
amount of miscellaneous smiling in the
crowd as the trio marched back to the
hotel, but there was no "wetnessn in
those smiles. tS
