WISE WORK.
Doings of the Board of Penitent;ary
Commissioners. -.tNlf'

The Territorial Board of Penitentia-
ry Commissioners, consisting of Gov.
Thayer, and Messrs. Murrin, DuTlacher
and Lanktree, reassembled at the Exec
utive office yesterday morning, and at
once entered upon the consideration of
the question: What shall we do with
our convicts 2
Mr.. w. H.. b. Stout, who has Il con
tract with the state of Nebraska, for
the labor and keeping of her convicts,
made a proposition to take Wyoming's
convicts from the several county seats,
transport them to Lincoln, Neb., and
subsist them at the rate of forty cents
per capita per day, for such time as the
contract might be awarded him. 1t is
necessary that the convicts now in our
penitentiary, before they can be taken
out of the Territory, shall be removed
to the county seats of the various coun-
ties in which they were tried, there to
be re-sentenced by the judges to impris-
onment in whatever penitentiary may
be selected by the Commissioners.
The bids of the jefferson MO state
~penitentiary, and the Joliet ILL., state
prison, which were precisely similar,
were then considered. They offered to
keep and subsist the convicts at twenty
five cents per day each. This set the
Commissioners to figuring, and as they
we're furnished with complete data re-
garding the cost of transportation, etc,
they soon reached the conclusion that
Mr.. Stout's offer was the best, and that
the interest of the Territory will he
best served by accepting it.
This conclusion was only arrived ut
after a very thorough %canvassing of all
the points in the case. II was shown
that whenever a cnnvict is taken to a
remote prison, the cost of t~ransporta-
ton and the officers expenses are high.
For instance: The cost of taking a
prisoner from Laramie to Joliet would
be $3.50. The saving in keeping him
there II year, as compared with Lin
coin, would be sd, showing a balance
in favor of Lincoln of S10G in one year,
for he it remembered that after the re-
sentencing is done, Mr.. Stout takes
charge of the convict, the Territory
having no costs of transportation to
pay.
The bid of Mr.. stout was accepted,
therefore and n contract awarded him
for five years for keeping such number
of convicts rs the Commissioners may
send. The Board will meet again at
II O'Clock to-day, to complete all ar
rangemcnts. About thirty of the
%convicts now in for the longest terms
will be selected and sent to Lincoln
Immediately. We think the people
will agree with us in the opinion that
the Commissioners have performed
their whole duty in the premises.

IF%reeman's Troubles.

l.. II. Freeman, editor of the Ogden
Freeman, has been arrested for steal
ing coal from the Utah Northern rail
road cars, which generally stand very
near his office, and has been boun,l
over in Justice Middleton's court, un-
der 5000 bonds to appear at the District
court for trial. He had some trouble
in obtaining bonds.
Some time since he wore Il very long
full beard, reaching down to his waist.
Trying to put up a job upon one of the
citizens of Ogden, he made q failure,
and as II fruit of his effort the mar
went for him and pulled out, by the
roots, the whole of that long beard.
He now wears Il modest moustache,
and shaves his chin.

:. None But The Brave.

She is a grass widow, past thirty, and
very ''spoony'' on hotel clerks, ticket
agents and conductors. She didn't
buy II ticket when she started for
Omaha, the other day, but boarded
Conductor Patterson's train, confident
that this demure young railroader would
at once be captivated by her charms.
yours is Il very perilous life," she
remarked, as Patterson approached her
seat with his call for tickets. Doesn't
it require a great deal of courage on
your partr" ''Oh, yes, ma'am," re-
piled the conductor, as he gently but
firmly charged her ten cents extra for
neglecting to get Il ticket. Yes
ma'am; none but the brave deserve the
fare" And rs he passed on she blushed,
and wondered if he meant that piece OF
impudence for Il compliment.

Everybody lbs heard of the RichingA,
Bernard opera troupe, which appears
here on Tuesday evening next for a
three nights engagement. Caroline
Richings has for years been acknowl-
edged the greatest of living opponents
of English opera. She has certainly
done more by voice and energy to make
that branch of the art popular than any
other person living. Not long since
the troupe played a successful engage
ment of N week in Virginia, Nevada,
and then went to San Francisco, where
they were favorably received. On the
return of the company to Virginia,
they met there lima Di Murska, who
with her husband, John T. Hill, the
great .organist and piano player, was
enjoying a season of rest On the Com
stock. A combination was effected
between the troupe and Di Murska, and
they have since been delighting the res
idents of Virginia and other western
cities. While Caroline Richings is one
Of the ablest singers of the day, Di
Murska certainly combines as many ex-
cellences as any vocalist now before the
American public. The people of Chey-
enne will be delighted with these cele-
brated vocalists.

Shrewd ~CaIifornians.

The san Francisco Exchange, paper
devoted to mining interests, and upon
that subject sound and reliable, makes
the following comments upon publish
ing the sale Of the Father DeSmet
mine:
The above dispatch indicates quite
clearly the Importance of the Black
Hills as Il mining district, and that
California capital is quick to discover
it and prompt to take advantage of the
situation. While eastern capital hest
tates and halts and asks for certainties,
the California millionaire quietly sends
his expert, and in ten minutes after
getting the %latter's report makes up his
mind. The development of these rich
Black Hills discoveries, by California
capital, will give a new impulse to the
bullion interests of this coast, and pre-
serve San Francisco's proud position as
the worlds gold and silver center.

HE FOUND HIS MAN.


A party of Old-timers were revivin9
the scenes ofthe olden time, when CheyL
enne was the terminus of the Union
Pacific, and a ''red-hot'' town On gem
eral principles, and one of them re-
lated the following: A harum-scarurn
young Missourian, who had made him
self the terror of his native county and
been forced to flee to the west, reached
Cheyenne n afternoon in the fall of
81, and at once entered upon a wild
orgie. The whisky of Cheyenne was
then termed ''bust-head, =" and it was
terrific stuff. The young Missourian
was 500 crazy drunk, and then nothing
would do but he must skill a nan with
a plug hat A man with any other
kind of a hat would not suit his fas-
tidious taste. lie hankered for a plug
hat with a man under it, and after a
while was accommodated. In the city,
at the time, wasa professional desperate,
a regular kill i'm quick" who had
laid out half a dozen men on the from
tier. He heard of the amateurs long
ing to skill a man with a plug hat" so
he put one OF and Il pair of kids,
and sauntering into the saloon where
the amateur was monarch of all he sur
veyed, asked, in II c~onsumptive tone,
for Il drink. The amateur saw him,
and was delighted.
"You're the fellow I've been looking
for. I'm bound to kill II mar with a
plug hat"
"Oh, you wouldn't kill "A poor, sickly
man like me, would you?' answered
the professional.
Eyes | would, and l will" yelled the
amateur, drawing and cooking his
pistol.
In the twinkling of AN eye the ANA
teur was running out of that saloon
crying and begging for life. The pro-
fessional had fired two shots into him,
one on the right side and the other on
the left in the vicinity of his diaphragm.
Next morning when a lawyer went to
take his deposition he declined to pros
ecute his professional brother, saying
that he earned what he got, and that
he ought to have been killed. Soon
after he recovered, retired from the
desperate business, and went home
cured of his almost unconquerable
aversion for men with plug hats.

While eating raw oysters the other
day, Hon. Peter HANNA, in biting a
very large one, ''struck a snag." Spit
ting it out he found a large piece of
shell, nearly imbedded in which was a
copper cent of the issue of 1850. 1t is
the general opinion of oyster experts
that one of the mel who assisted in
transplanting the oysters dropped a
penny, which found its way into the
oyster, and remained there and grew
fast as the oyster increased in size.
