named Runyon, an employee of tho cat
tie firm Of Kountze & McLuse. The

POTTER
The irrepressibIs Pedestrian and HIS Eccen-
trio Vehicle In Town-Away Ahead
Of Time.

Since it became known that r. Ly-
man Potter, the man with the wheel
barrow, was nearing Cheyenne, many
folks have taken interest in the strange
feat Of a stranger man. Much specula-
tion is INDUCED in as to the probability
of his success, and not a few bets are
made that he will fail.
A telegram was sent by a LEADER
reporter to Potter yesterday afternoon,
as follows:
"CHEYENNE, July 26th.
n. L.. Potter, Atkins. Wyo.:
viii you reach Cheyenne this even
ing?"
The answer came shortly:
"ATKINs, WYo., July 26th.
To Cheyenne Leader:
VIII reach Cheyenne at about 10
O'Clock. POTTER"
Accordingly about a quarter before
10 O'Clock Mr.. Potter wheeled into the
city. He was met by a delegation of
friends, and after ''taking something
as a rain storm just came up, you
know, he repaired to the Western
House for supper. Here a LEADER re-
porter saw him. He was sitting at a
dining table. Potter is SO years old,
six feet tall, weighs 142 pounds, aud is
spare Of build. He looks like an Ark
ansaw traveller with his long, thin hair
and struggling whiskers. His clothing
is somewhat the worse for rain and
sunshine, and his hat is white and
broad-brimmed. He says his health is
much better since he started on his
walk, weighs eight pounds more, and
eats a double quantity. Wyoming peo-
pie treat him better than others, as he
hasn't spent a cent in the Territory yet,
while at other places they gouged him
all they could.
His success will, or is supposed to,
bring him a purse of $1,000, raised by
his Albany friends. He is now short
of money and will write home for
some, failing in which, he will give up
the walk.
MI. Potter's walk from Albany to
San Francisco, a distance of 4,0S5
miles as he walks it, must be accom-
plished in 215 days, exclusive of Sun
days. He started April 10th, in the
evening. So far he has made 1857
miles, and has been on the road 92
days. From here to San Francisco is
a distance of 1888 miles by rail, and
Potter has 1913 days to make it in, or,
an average of about 114 miles per day.
He will remain in Cheyenne all day to
write letters and look around, and re.
sumo his tramp this evening, keeping
in motion until IL o'clock.

One of the Brightest Charms

One of the Brightest Charms
OF a fair face is a fine set of teeth. The
ladies being fully alive to this fact,
patronize SozoDoNT in preference to
any other dentrifce, since they know
by experience that it preserves like no
other the pristine wilderness and clean
illness of the teeth, and makes a natu-
rally sweet breath additionally fra
grant. 1t is one of the privileges of
the beaur seq to look lovely and that
proportion of it which uses Sozodout,

in no small degree to the end in view.

BASE ~BALL-SALT LAKE,
The Reds Lose Another eams-WIu PLAY
Salt Lake Reds To-Day.

Especial Telegram to IN LxApEn.I
SALT LAKE CITY, July &c.
Our boys marched bravely to their
funeral this afternoon. Things looked
fairly until the second inning, when
Jones busted" one of his fingers. He
laid of without waiting for his arm to
be taken of to the elbow. Hill caught,
Topping pitching. But Hill couldn't
hold Topping's balls, and the Deserets
batted well. At the end Of the sixth
inning an adjournment was had, with
the score 16 to A against the Reds. The
crowd was not SO large to-day.
The Reds have got enough of the
Deserets, and tomorrow they win
tackle the Reds of Salt Lake, whom
they are confident of beating. But it
is said that the Reds here are equal to
the Deserets, and they are bitter enc
mics. The Cheyenne boys are friendly
to both clubs. RED Sox.
