plan on foot to put Judge William Ware
Peck in as a member of the Supreme
Court of Utah, vice Schaeffer, who,
that paper asserts, is to be made a men,
Der of Wyoming's Supreme Court. The
Herald, while bitterly denouncing
Judge Schaeffer, is equally averse to
Judge Peck.
THE LEADER has it from a pretty
good source, however, that the admin
~istration of law in Utah by Schaeffer
satisfies the authorities at the Depart
ment of Justice in Washington. and it
is said he will therefore be retained in
his present position.

BEECHER.
The High hiucky Muck Of Plymouth Church
Passes Through Cheyenne En- Route
for San Francisco,

When the western bound passenger
train came in yesterday afternoon,
Henry Ward Beecher alighted from the
platform. He was accompanied by Mrs.
Beecher, MI. Pond, his agent, and Mrs.
Pond. The party proceeded at once to
the Railroad House for dinner. As
they did SO, there was a general cram
ing of necks on the part Of those who
happened to be lounging about the de-
pot. "There lie goes, . "That's Beech
er," and other remarks of a similar
nature were made in undertones.
He is under medium size as regards
his height, but is livery wide outn and
weighs probably about 100 pounds. His
long gray locks, wrinkled physiognomy,
and a step lacking firmness betokeps
the years which have whirled past him
in his remarkable and exciting journey
through life. The imprint of brain la
Dor and mental anxiety is plainly visi-
BILE upon his face, and, for a man with
such a vigorous constitution, has grown
old in advance of his allotted time.
Mrs. Beecher wa dressed neatly but
plainly, and neither of them looked to
the right nor the left as they passed to
and from the hotel. They appeared TO
be totally unconscious of all surround
ing objects.
Beecher delivered several lectures in
Iowa, his last being at Council Bluffs,
where he had a good house. At Mount
Pleasant, in that State, where he lee
tured, it cost S1.O0 to hear him. An
exchange says the audience was very
large and the people were crammed
tighter than raisins in a box. He spoke
without necktie or vest, about the
WAISTS of Society" s
Beecher will lecture next at Virginia
City, and afterwards at other points,
winding up on the Pacific coast with
San Francisco. He will probably lee.
ture in Cheyenne upon his return trip,
next month, though such a programme
has not yet been adopted.
After a hasty repast the Beecher par.
ty continued its journey.

depot. They did s and accompanied

Sad Case.

One Of the sad incidents in connec-

Mooney, who was killed by the cars
here last week, is that of his being hur-
ried into eternity while looking forward
to his approaching marriage. Fifteen
minutes before the cruel wheel crushed
him out from life and hope in this
world, he left the side of her to whom
he was b%etrothed, In less than a half
hour after the twain separated, she was
notified Of his sad fate.

Base Bali Match.

FORT SANDERS, Aug. II, 1878.
To the Editor of The Leader:
The "a. b. C%rittendenr base bali club
Of Company G, Fourth infantry, played
a game of ball here on Saturday with
the Cut Shorts" of Laramie City, and
although the latter had Will Bryan, the
ex-professional pitcher, to aid, they were
defeated by the following score
Cut shorts-4-0-0-0-1-O-3-S.
Owing to the late hour at which the
game was commenced. time was called
on the 7th inning. A high wind
was blowing throughout the entire
game, yet there was some very fine
playing done by the soldiers, and the
Cut Shorts could not manage Deat's
pitching.
The Cut Shorts play the Deserets of
Salt Lake City on the 10th inst. If
they do not play a better game than
they did Saturday, they will get "cut
considerably shorter" than they did by
the soldiers. OBSERVER.

A Man Falls Into a Well md is browne


Yesterday at noon, says the Bee of
the 10th, a young man by. the name of
George Buck, who came to Omaha
from New York City some eight days
ago, fell into a well at the Western
Hotel, kept by Peter Goose, on Farm
ham, between Fifteenth and Sixteenth
streets. The well is about 20 feet deep
and has some II feet of water in it.
The last seen of Buck, until his lifeless
body was taken from the well, was ut
noon, when he left his room, telling his
companion that he was going to the
well to get a fresh drink of water. At
about half past twelve o'clock MI.
Goose's hostler had occasion to draw
water from the well, when his atten-
ton was attracted by a hat floating on
the water. A rapid investigation led
to the discovery of Bucks lifeless body
at the bottom. The deceased was a
German by birth, and was about %
years Of age. 1t is supposed that while
at the well his hat fell in, and in at
tempting to catch it his feet slipped,
and he fell over the curb and followed
1t to the bottom, where he drowned.
The platform around the well Is wet
and slippery, and the supposition that
he slipped seems to be well founded.
