The Late Right Bower OF Ben Bu,.er Going
Home.

Dennis Kearney, the agitator, passed
through Cheyenne yesterday on his
way to his home at San Francisco. The
committee, chosen on Friday night to
wait upon him at the depot and request
him to stop off long enough to make a
speech, wisely held a meeting yesterday
morning and decided to have nothing
whatever to do with him.
He stands before the American pub
lie a convicted charlatan, who tickled
the fancy of a crowd by hurting cpl
thets at his betters. The marvel Is not
that he, who never had a respectable
following, should be thrust back into
the obscurity from which he emerged,
but that he should have attracted ma
tional attention at all. As an agitator
he has had his time and, to some ex-
tent, succeeded. But he really, never
made more than a passing impression
upon that class Of men among whom
he professed to labor, and they showed,
on most occasions, the good sense to
laugh at, rather than laugh with him
when he threw out his so-called ''hits'
at the class of men who really made
America what it is to-day-the most
honorable and honored nation OF the
earth. He possesses neither wit nor
worth, and the laboring men Of the
land are to-day estimating him at his
real value-a fraud, on general princi.
Piles, and they are right. Good bye,
Kearney.

Execution by the Guillotine.

A friend once described to us al execu-
ton which he witnessed in Paris, outside
the walls of the city prison, and in the pub
lie street. It took place in the. gray of
dawn, and at the precise hour indicated in
the sentence. A squad of soldiers filed
out of the gates, and in twinkling put
together the machinery of the guiliotinc,
some Of them sprinkling sawdust on the
pavement while it was being put up. Be
fore this was fairly finished the gate
swung open, and the criminal and execu-
toner and the spiritual adviser marched
out. Whatever religious exercises were
essential had been attended toswithin the
prison. The criminal, with his hands
bound behind him and cap drawn over
