Corpse,
We had hoped that body snatchers
and other species of graveyard desc
crations were confined exclusively to
the ''civilized east where the hearts
of the people beat warmly for ''the
poor Indian and the down trodden
and oppressed Chinamen'' of the Pacific
coast. But that fond hope has sud-
denly and very Unexpectedly been
stranded upon certain facts made
known to a LEADER reporter last even
ing. The business of the gentleman
from whom our information is obtained
requires him to visit the Cheyenne
cemetery occasionally. He is an under
taker, and during a visit to 'sthe city
Of the dead'' m day early in the
present week, he AYERS that he discov-
cred nnmistakable evidence of u case of
grave robbery. Some FIVE or six a
ago. he says IA man named Morris or
Moores was buried there" AT the
special request Of deceased consider able
valuable jewelry which belonged to him
in life was buried in the coffin with
him.
The revelations made by the under
taker are to the effect that he found the
body of the deceased stranger, Moores
or Morris, ~protruding from the earth.

HELD FOE COURT.
lanes Quinn Under $500 Bonds for nurde

The case Of James Quinn WAS heard
yesterday morning before Chief Justice
Fisher, resulting in binding the pris-
oner over for his appearance at the
May term Of court. Quinn Is charged
with numbering May Howard in the
''Wine Parlors'' on Ferguson street
last Monday afternoon. His counsel,
Judge Spaun, presented the case and
did all In his power for his client. The
circumstances under which the shoot
ing was done has already been detailed
in these columns. Judge Spaun's at
tempt to secure the release of his
client on a writ of habeas corpus having
failed, the prisoner will doubtless lie in
jail until the district court convenes in
May next. His bonds are fixed at
$500, and it is uncertain whether he
can obtain that amount.

serene and happy, indulging ID an Occa-
sional chuckle and knowing glance at Mr..
Fopkins but at this moment he saw he
had arrived at his destination, and wish
ing his two victims much happiness, he
left them to their thoughts.
The human heart is strange affair, to
say the least of it. Had any one advised
Mr.. Popkins to marry Sallie, he would
have rejected the idea Immediately, and
she herself would have taken 1t as an
insult. But the totally unexpected man.
ner in which the matter had been
brought up made altogether a different
affair of it. He stole a glance az Miss
Sallie. Her face was turned away, and
she was apparently studying nature.
She was pretty; Mr.. Popkins couldn't
deny that. What if-if-and his heart
gave tremendous bound. What fool
he had been all this time! We must try,
at any rate, and risk repulse. So with
out any more hesitation, for our hero
was brave, he took Uncle Ben. .'sseat, and
said, quietly:
"Miss Sallie."
The face turned the eighteenth part of
an inch toward him. Not much encour-
agement, certainly, but little.
"Miss Sallie," he repeated, "pve been
fool and BRUTE"
Oh, wise Mr.. Popkins! he had started
on the direct road to a woman's heart.
Either from contrariness or sense of
Justice they always take the opposite
side. Miss Sallie made up her mind
from this moment that he was gentle
man and Solomon, and she turned her
face completely round for him to ad-
mire.
"Do you think" he continued, chat
we can settle this lawsuit in the sensible
manner suggested ~ Uncle Ben? do
love you, Miss Sallie, and by George |
believe, l loved you all the time, and
never knew it till to-day" =
Miss Sallie was completely vanquished,
but the answer, although whispered, was
heard above the wheels and the crack
ing of the drivers whip.
The suit of Popkins vs.. Hopkins was
dismissed that day. The Baptist minis
ter got fee, and the people were firmly
convinced that Mr.. and Mrs. Popkins are
the very best hands in the world to keep
secret.

ScOtt's First Love.
[Once a Week.]

1t Is an old saving. "Whom first we
love we never wed," and this, though not
strictly true, may be applied to Scott,
Byron, George Washington and many
other men of note. 1t is interesting to
observe how poets generally present
their love matters to the public. The
personal experience of such men will
crop out. Scott, for instance, fell deep
| ly in love in early life with a girl of aris-
tocratic family, and as he was then mere
ly poor barrister, there was no prospect
ofasuccess. His father, knowing this,
and being desirous to bring the matter
to close, suggested to the parents
the propriety of terminating the
acquaintance, and this was done in the
least painful manner. The lady was
the only daughter of Sir John Stewart,
of Forfarshire, and she afterward mar
ried Sir William Forbes, the noted
Edinburgh banker. As Scott was we'll
educated young man, of fine personal
appearance and agreeable manners, there
could he but little reason for giving the
banker preference, except his wealth
and social rank. Scott felt this keenly
through life; in "Rokeby" he revives the
episode at some length. Matilda, the
heroine of the poem, represents the OBJ
;ect Of his love, who there rejects a
poet in favor Of one of higher
rank, and this scene becomes
doubly interesting as picture OF Scott's
early experience. In 1911 Lady Forbes
died; but she lived long enough to sec
the once penniless barrister the first poet
in Scotland. Her death was deeply felt
by Scott, for, although he had been mar
ried for twelve years, the old flame was
not extinguished. "Rokeby" appeared
next year, and Lockhart says chat there
is nothing wrought out, in all Scott'l
tprose, more exquisite than the contrast
between the rivals for the hand OF the
heroine" Six years afterward Scot,
wrote thus to Miss Edgeworth: "Ma
tilda was attempted for the person of {
lady who is now no more, so that ! an
flattered with your distinguishingit. t." Al
this took place nearly twenty years after
the disappointment, it illustrates the
tenacity with which the author held tt
his first love. When Lady Forbes dice
Scott was so affected that he called or
her mother, and both fell to weeping owe
the sad affair. 1t is curious incident il
domestic history to see q man carrying
his first love so tenderly through Life
while married to another woman to whom
he always showed great attachment
Scott evidently made Matilda thu
ideal or dream-wife who accompanied
him to the last. Having recovered
from the worst effects of his disap
pointment, he met French girl, whos'
father had saved both life and FORTUNE
by fleeing from the dangers of the Revo
luton. At the time referred to, Mis-
Carpenter Tor Carpenter) was an orphan
and to her Scott transferred his affections
so far as this was possible. He appeared
as has been said, much attached to hi
wife through life, and sincerely mourne'
her death: She was, however, intellectu
ally and physically, inferior to the Scot
tish ladies of that city, and the rapi'
degeneracy of the family may, in som
degree, be ascribed ITO 10 mfavorable
union. .

A Profitable Vineyard.
[Santa Rosa Times.]

Joseph A. Williams, of Glen Ellen,
who is pioneer grape grower, and one
of the most successful wine makers in
the County, made this year $4,000 gal
Ions of wine from his old vineyard of
fortyeight acres Of bearing vines. He
has also eighteen acres of young vines
coming in next year. Mr.. Williams sold
his last years wine crop for "a cents a
gallon, and has engaged this years pro-
duct to some parties at the highest mar
ket value when delivered. Mr.. Williams
practical experience has taught him that
where vineyards. are thoroughly culti-
vated and properly cared for, they are
not liable to the scourge Of phylloxera.
He has known the roots Of the Mission
vine to penetrate the earth to a depth Of
twenty-eight feet.
