Perhaps some Of the readers of the
LEADER are not aware that the period
is approaching when the greatest num-
Der of spots appear on the solar surface.
Even at the present time several are
visible, and some Of them of consider
able size. A number of facts seem to
warrant the opinion of perhaps a ma
jority of physicists that the changes on
the disc Of the central luminary which
the spots show to be taking place, influ-
ence many phenomena on the earth.
The readiest way of observing the
spots is to receive the image of the sun
either on a screen or paper marked by
perpendicular and horizontal lines, at
an equal distance from one another.
Not only the outlines of the spot, but
also its relative size can thus be easily
traced.
There are almost as many theories
for their cause as there are astronom-
ers. The reader can look at them and
form his or her own opinion.

His Troubles Accumulate

Longfellow, in his Hiawatha, hath
truly said th:t disasters come not
singly. So it is with the ex-Count
Cont, recently arrested in Omaha,
brought back to Cheyenne and lodged
in Jail on the charge of being a gilt
edged blk. Almost every day since
his incarceration, somebody has lodged
a complaint against him for crooked
ness. Several of the parties already
mentioned in the LEADER have filed
charges against CONT, and the prospect
is that he will be " sent upn for the
period of ninety-nine years in the ag-
gregate-more or less, probably less,
but not much less. Surgeon Book &C.
cuses him of obtaining money by means
Of false kilograms, and the same action
has been taken by Mr.. Idelman. Capt.
Collier, of Fit. Laramie, files complaint
OIL account of the watch transaction.
Several counties in Wyoming are yet to
be heard from. The LEADER has no de-
sire to prejudice Count Conti's case,
but the proof against him is overwhelm-

Petty Thieves.

The officers are busily engaged a por-
ton of their time running petty thieves
into the calaboose. Chicken thieves
prowl about at the hour of night when
grave yards are supposed to yawn, and
last night an egg thief vas captured
and lodged in the cooler. 1t is aston
ishing how low a petty thief will drop
in the scale of infamy, and we are daily
expecting the necessity of recording
the theft of a copy of the San by one
of these fellows who never studied
Blackstone on the Rights of Prop
erty."

A Fine Summer Resort.


We take pleasure in calling the atten-
ton Of our people, and summer tourists
generally, to the announcement, made
in this issue, by Mr.. West, the proprie-
tor of the Elkhorn House, near Liver
more, COL, a short ride from Fort Col
Inns on the Colorado Central r. r. The
Elkhorn House is located in one of the
finest regions of Northern Colorado,
and is surrounded by beautiful noun
tain scenery ; it is just the place where
a tired human being can recuperate and
enjoy life during the heated season of
the year. The best of fishing and hunt
ing can be found neal at hand. Among
the attractive scenery in the vicinity
are the Poudre falls, Poudre lake and
the volcanic region. Within easy walk
ing distance are the main Poudre, South
Fork, Elkhorn and north Lone Pine
all beautiful mountain streams, filed
with the speckled beauties, the special
favorites of the sportsman,
The Elkhorn House is owned by Mr..
George II. West, of the well-known
and substantial banking house of Emer-
son & West, Greeley. Col. Mr.. H. T.
West is the lessee and manager. This
name is a guarantee that the house will
be kept in first-class style, that its
patrons will find there the best accom-
modations, and meet with the most
honorable treatment. Our citizens who
desire to rusticate with their families
in the mountains this summer, cannot
do better than to visit the Elkhorn
House.

Back from the Mines.

Col. w. d. Pease, J. D. Corey, Geo.

returned yesterday from the mining dis
trict in the vicinity of Granite Cafon.
During their s~ojourn in that section,
they done considerable prospecting and
found some quartz which promises to
pan out well. Each of the party re.
turned with several specimens of very
rich ore, and are quite enthusiastic re.
garding the developments which they
made.

IL no Democratic paper North or South
is single syllable Of the rawlings Of the
Okolona Republican tool reproduced. On
the contrary, every Democratic paper that
has had occasion to refer to the out-givings
of the Okolona dirty-worker, has utterly
repudiated them, and denounced the editor
for what he is--a hireling Of Northern
Republicans. There is not Republican
editor in the North who has sense enough
to find his way to and from his own office
who does not know this to be a fact, yet
with an assurance that ought to shame the
devil, fully one half the Republican papers
of the country give their weekly doses of
Okolona hot-broth, and call them samples
of Southern Democracy. This may be
considered honorable warfare, when judged
by the Republican code Of morals; but
honest, fair minded men denounce it as a
dirty, dishonorable business, in which no
man who is gentleman will engage.

THE GREAT NEW YORK MYSTERY
NO MYSTERY AT ALL.

The excitement over the recent develop
ments in the Hull murder case, continues
undiminished, alike in New York, where
the murder was committed, and in Boston,
where the murderer was arrested. The
facts connected with the murder, as con
fessed by Chastine Cox, the negro guilty
of the awful crime, are briefly these;
If we are to believe the criminal, the
burglary was not premcditated, and the
murder was not intentional. Cox declared
that he never made up his mind to bur-
glarize the house, until the very night OF
the l2th instant, when he unconsciously
wandered to the top of the front steps OF
the Hull mansion. Then the thought OF
Mrs. Hull's rich iewelry came into his mind
and he resolved to gain possession of it
Trying his skeleton key on the front door
he discovered that he couldn't move the
bolt, and then trying the front windows
he found that one of them had
been left unfastened. Through this window
he effected an entrance, and then secur ely
fastened it on the inside. Once IN the par.
lor he was guided to Mrs. Hull's sleeping
apartment by her snoring. He first peered
through the sliding doors that were ajar tc
see if the woman really slept. Then light
Jug a match to learn the situation of affairs
he passed into her chamber. She wa
aroused by the noise, and asked "Who'
