ROCK CREEK ROBBERS.
The inside History Of Their Capture BY Bos.
wells Band.

Mr.. Dana Thayer, of Rock Creek,
furnishes the following account Of the
preliminaries to the arrest of the Rock
Creek road agents. The first heard Of
the party of robbers was about three
weeks ago, when the men on the in
coming stage reported them a few
miles south Of Fort Fetterman. Fri
day before the capture the men came
into a ranch about a mile and half from
Rock Creek and stopped there that
night.
On Sunday the stage came in and
the driver saw several Of the men, re-
cognizing some of them as desperate
and well known characters, informing
Mr.. Thayer of the fact. This news,
considering the fact that Rock Creek
contains but one or two buildings beside
the eating house and store3 created
some alarm. On Sunday prior to the
capture the proprietor Of the ranch
where the robbers were located, one
Frank Howard, took dinner at the
hotel, but said nothing. He came in
again on Sunday and sent a note to a
well known citizen near Rock Greek,
saying that he had some valuable infor-
nation that he wished to give him.
The citizen saw the man and was told
that the robbers had arranged to come
in the night of the next day (Monday)
and rob the eating-house, where they
believed was a large sum of money.
They were fully informed about every
thing regarding the house and store.
They expected to come just after the
Union Pacific train No 3 had left, and
"clean out" everything.
The man who gave them away said
that he had been out of work and out
of money when he was induced to join
the men, and also that his life would
have been in imminent danger if he
refused. The man in charge of the
ranch-another individual-had given
them full information regarding the
| ea~ting-house and store. Word was
then sent to Laramie City, and Boswell
and his men went down and captured
the iends. Y

The members of the Durant fire com

P. Mulligan was elected to membership.
On motion the officers were allowed
further time in which to render their
reports. The election of officers was
postponed until the next regular meet
ing.
The company decided to urge the ap-
pointment of Herman Haas as chief of
the FIRE department for the ensuing
year.

That's what Killed Him

No one seems to have suspected thus
far that it was too much eating and
drinking that shortened Bayard Taylor's
l%ife--too high living, too many side
dishes, too much ale and sherry, and
too many Havana cigars. That's what
alled Bayard Taylor. He was a printer
by profession, and no printer can long
survive sumptuous diet. He a work
at the case half the day and all the
night, he can sleep on a. board, and
thrive on crusts, but surround him
with delicacies, and his useful life soon is
exhausted. 1t is like ~snatching the
proud eagle from his barren rocks and
expecting him to thrive on sweetmeats.

The best preparation for a cough.
cold or sore throat is the compound
cough syrup prepared by Addoms &
Glover. 1t gives relief In cases where
all other remedies have failed, and at
this season of the year every family
should keep a bottle in the house. It
Is pleasant to take, and can readily be
administered to children. Price, 10
cents per bottle. d5-tf

The Cheyenne Leader. DAILY and
Weekly commends itself to Western
readers for the following reasons:
1t publishes all the news of the day
from all parts of the world.
1t aims to be a faithful exponent of
the interests of the people, and of the
best sense and sentiment of local and
general politics.
1t has no narrow hobbies, and v
permits individual p~rejudices or fac
tious interests to warp its Judgment or
to contract its powers of vision as .
watchful sentinel, who is constantly on
the alert for whatever may give enlight-
eminent, prosperity and happiness of
the general public.
1t designs to be a Newspaper. in the
broadcast and best sense of the word;
promptly and fully reporting all local
events of interest, giving all the latest
general news by telegraph and the
mails, and making its columns'a faith
full reflex of the progress and spirit of
the times at home and abroad.
The Weekly Leader is an eight page,
carefully edited general newspaper, for
the Office, the ranch, the workshop, the
military station and the family. 1t
contains all the news of the week, and
gives a large variety of literary, practi-
cal, commercial and miscellaneous
reading matter. 1t is one of the best
general Weekly Newspapers in the
West, and the best and largest published
west of the Mississippi.
During 1879 we shall make The
Leader even more attractive than it has
been heretofore. Additional editorial
talent will be employed, and no efforts
or expense will be spared to keep The
Leader in the front rank Of Journal
ism. We have reason to believe that
the reading public Of the great West,
appreciates an enterprising, conscien-
tious and carefully edited newspaper.
We have the most substantial eviden-
ces of the fact, and we ask nothing
better and nothing more than that the
same intelligent and appreciative pub
lie which has given The Leader its
support for so many years in the past,
will continue to do SO in the future.
