BEAR SPRINGS, March Ii


N'-
To the Cheyenne Leader:
Arrived here last night all o. K,
after n heavy pull all day. Saw several
outfits between this place and Nine
Mile ranch. From appearances it will
be several days before frejghters can
roll along, The freight teams, ambu-
lances and military escort bound for
Fort Custer are snow-bound here.
Most of their stock were driven off by
the storm, but all the wagon animals
have been recovered. The soldiers are
still out four head of horses, which
they expect to recover to-day. One
freight team lightly laden managed
to pull from Bard's ranch to this
point yesterday. The heaviest drift so
far is at this point, and if we man
age to pull through we will reach the
Chug to-day.
The Black Hills stage company's
stock are in fine condition, and haul
the stage through heavy drifts without
much trouble, although the passengers
have had to walk on more than one &C.
casion.
The sun now shines brightly; no
wind, and the outlook is altogether
cheerful for u speedy trip. The mail
coach which left Cheyenne on Monday
was only seven Ehours ahead Of us at 6
O'Clock last night. We have a jewel in
johnny Denny, the driver, who is with
out doubt one of the best Jehu's in the
west, and through his popularity we
have received favors at this ranch,
which was crowded when the stage ar
rived. Y.

Condition Of the Cattle on Horse Creek and
the Chug.

the Chug.
CASTLE RANCH, March 13, 1878.
To the Editor Of The Leader:
Sir-Knowing that the stock men of
the country are anxious to learn the
condition of stock since the storm, l
will say there is plenty of feed between
Horse creek and the Chug, and the on
ly loss in this vicinity will be in cases
where the stock have drifted under.
The Fisher Brothers went up near the
summit last Thursday and camped, for
the purpose of getting out timber.
They were drifted in, but their energy
was equal to the emergency and they
reached home on Monday, hungry and
chilled, having literally burrowel
through the drifts. A narrow escape.

Unless associated with good teeth, are
shorn of half the attractions they may
otherwise possess. Bearing this fact in
mind, use Sozodont, which will prevent
your teeth from losing their whiteness,
and will render them spotless if speck-
ed and discolored. The tint and hard
ness of coral are impaired to the gums
by this incompatible preventative and
identifying agent, and the breath is
rendered fragrant as h%oneysuckle by its
use. 1t is safe, besides being effective.

The Sagacity OF Ants.

Prof. Leidy, in recent article, states
that, in order to ascertain whether a
house he had just entered was Gas he
suspectedD seriously infested with red
ants, he placed piece of sweet cake in
every room. At noon every piece was
found covered with ans. A cup of tur.
pentine oil being provided, each piece
was picked up with forceps, and the
ants tapped into the oil. The cake was
replaced, and in the evening was again
found covered with ants. The same
process was gone through the following
two days, morning, noon and night.
The third day the number of ants had
greatly diminished, and on the fourth
there were none. He at first supposed
the ants had all been destroyed, but in
the attic he observed few feasting on
some dead house-fies, which led him to
suspect thar the remaining ants had be-
come suspicious of the sweet cake. He
accordingly distributed through the
house pieces of bacon, which were after
wards found swarming with ants. This
was repeated with the same result for
several days, when, in like manner with
the cake, the ants ceased to visit the
bacon. Pieces of cheese were next tried
with the same result, but with an ua-
doubted thinning in the number of ants.
When the cheese proved no longer at
tractive, dead grasshoppers were sup
piled from the garden. These again
proved too much for the ants, but after
a few days trial neither grasshoppers
nor any thing else attracted them; nor
has the house been infested with them
since.

HON. A. H. BUCKNER.

Since the adjournment Of Congress
Judge Buckner has been confined to
his bed at his residence in Mexico
with a severe attack of fever. We
learn the Judge will be a candidate
for reelection. He will be hard to
beat, as he has made us a most ex-
collent member, and discharged the
duties of his office to the entire sat
isfaction Of his constituency in this
district. Hence we see no reason
why the Judge should not be return
ed, as he has become well acquainted
with the affairs of the country, and
the wants Of the people, and has eX-
hibited a rare devotion to the inter
ests of the people of his district. A
new mar would have all this to learn.
and as Judge Buckncr has establish
ed for himself an enyIable reputation
among the leading members Of Con-
gress, we can see no good reason for
superseding him with an untried and
inexperienced man. We have yet to
hear the slightest complaint in re-
gard to the conrse pursued by the
Judge, and we hope to see him
unanimously endorsed for re-nomina-
ton to the position which he has SO
faithfully and ably tillcd.-Ciarks-
