MORE NAL NATTER.
Tho Meeting to Agitate the Question
-Cemmittee Appointed.

-l0Mmtttoc ADpoA0tco-
Notwithstanding the severely inclem-
emit weather last evening, there was a
good attendance at the court house
meeting to agitate the question of ad-
ditional mail facilities. Gov. Hoyt was
called to the chair, and Messrs. johnson
and Baird, representing the Sun and
LEADER, respectively, were made sec
retaries.
After the object Of the meeting had
been stated by the chair, Judge Sener
arose to make q motion, and said that
he attended the postal convention that
was held four years ago at Fortress
Monroe. There was but little mention
made OF it at the time because Of the
labor strikes all over the country. The
object of the convention was to secure
additional mail facilities for the south.
They had already two daily malls and
desired a third. Resolutions reciting
the proper facts, and petitions were
prepared. The result was highly salts
factory, the third daily mail being Sc
cured.
The judge described the delays at
present incident to receiving mails
from the east and west, and argued
that the only remedy was an additional
mail per day, to be carried by an ex-
press train. He instanced the fact
that the country west of the Missouri,
including Texas, had gained since the
last census, 100000 in population.
And the increasing Importance Of tbs
vast empire, constantly increasing in
wealth and influence, demands facili-
tated connection with the east and
west. AS q pointer on the Importance
Of business centers he stated the fact
that in the city of Cheyenne alone the
deposits in the banks amount to one
and a half millions.
Judge Sener said that the Union
Pacific company could not be expected
to put on an additional train at its own
expense. The government should con
tribute literally for the facilited mail,
and to this end it was necessary to
bring the matter properly before con-
gress, which will shortly convene.
He therefore moved that a commit
tee Of nine be appointed to draw up
resolutions expressive of the sense of
the Inhabitants of Cheyenne and Wyo-
ming as to increased mail service, and
TO ask the cooperation of cities, terri
tories and states west of us, in petition
ing congress for the increased mail.
The motion was carried unanimously,
and the chair appointed as the commit
tee, Judge j. .. Sener, Secretary e. s..
N. Morgan, Hon. w. w. Corlett, Hon.
F. E. Addoms, Hon. Thomas Sturgis,
Hon. J. M. Carey, Hon. A. H. Reel,
Hon. f. E. Warren and Hon. A. r.
Converse.
1t was resolved to meet again at the
court house on Monday evening next to
receive and act IN the report. The
chairman Of the committee announced
that the committee would meet at the
judges chamber, court house, on Fri
day evening to formulate the resolu-
| tions.
On motion the meeting adjourned.

Fighting whales,

"Sometimes sperm whales are danger.
GUS to whale hunters, especially when
crank whale is met" said an old
whaler. II have heard men say that
the sperm whale Nill not show fight,
but it struck me that they had never
sailed in whaler. The first fight with
q sperm whale in which took hand
was in 1869, when was with the whaler
Mary G. Currie. We sighted one after
noon fine large whale about five miles
of, and when we we're near enough we
luffed up and lowered away the boats.
The captain himself had one boat, the
mate had one, and an old whaler had
another. I was with the mate. You
have heard about whales running from
boats, but this one stood ground and
did not seem to be afraid of us. Our
boat reached him first, but as soon as
the whale saw us coming he came at us
bows on We lost no time in getting
out of his way, and it made us laugh to
see the other boats dodge round. This
made the men trihe nervous, and when
We tried him again they backed away
for dear life, afraid to go near enough
for the harpooner to throw his weapon.
This made the mate raving mad and, as
a consequence, we went so near the next
time that the whale opened his cavern
Gus jaws and bit the boat in two.
"After the men had been fshed out
of the water by the old whaler's boat
the mate got into the captains boat and
tried the whale again. When they
started the mate stood up in the bow
and yelled The first man who looks
out OF the boat at that whale will get
stabbed with this harpoon.' Away they
went right up to the spouter's head.
The harpoon was driven home and the
boat was backed away. The cold steel
had done its work well, for soon the sea
was red with blood and the monster
whale, after thrashing the water into
foam, lay dead"

Greek Hrigands.

As brigandsge is regular business,
a little capital for the purchase of arms
is required. Papers are drawn up, in
which the shares of the captain and the
men are specified. Sometimes routes
are let by one band to another for a
percentage. 1t proving exceptionally
good in one case, the parties came very
near bringing the affair into court on q
lawsuit. Death to the captive is almost
certain if the ransom is not paid. A
ransom which was on its way from Con-
stantinople was stolen from the messen-
gel by another band, but the captive
was killed all the same. A farmer hay
ing two children captured could send
the money only for one, and the boy
was returned. He begged little de-
lay, but the band was on the move and
could not wait. The little girl was
found afterward with stab in her heart
and wild flowers in her hand. And yet,
strange to say, these robbers profess an
odd sort of piety. They never drink
wine, never neglect their religious du-
ties, always cross themselves before eat
ing, and never omit the numerous fast
days the Greek church insists upon.
Some are we'll read; one leading scoun-
drel always travels about with a small
library.

of tricks, some Of which I will show you,
There are the little cusses now."
Under glass case in the dooryard
were coiled the twin rattlers. They
were apparently asleep until Uncle Zeke
removed the glass, when they jumped
upon his arm, wriggled their way to his

aginsble, ran their heads one along one
cheek and the other along the other,
and then, laying them against his face,
remained perfectly quiet. 1t made
Uncle Zeke look very diabolical, but he
evidently enjoyed it, for he chuckled
for moment and then, whistling in
low, peculiar key, caused the twins to
place themselves side by side and Jump
into his hands. He then placed them
ON background, and they at once coiled
themselves up into ball and began re.
volving rapidly around on the grass.
They twisted themselves into a hoop,
and in that shape jumped through Uncle
zeke's arms. They wriggled through
the blades Of grass so fast that it seemed
as though there was sea OF upturned
snake heads in the yard, and then they
heightened themselves out, and, lifting
up their heads, nodded at one another.
That wasn't all. By a series Of signs,
which they seemed to understand at
once, they formed themselves into let
ters, ending up with the letters "S. IT,
which Uncle Zeke said stood for Siamese
twins. There seemed no end to their
contortions. Uncle Zeke said, as he
put them back under the case:
"There amt Snowman in this coun-
try but would give good, fat price for
those varmints, but he can't have 'em.
I've got fine farm here, and don't need
money, but I do want these critters, for
since my wife, Maria, died, haven't had
anythin' to occupy my mind"

Hone for Bald Heads.

In letter sent to the New York Sun
the writer says:
Three years ago the top of my head
was as bald as the palm of my hand. On
the recommendation of a friend I
used the following simple preparation
and now have a good head of hair:
To pint Of water add trife more
salt than the water will dissolve. In
other words make very strong brine.
At night before retiring rub the bald
part briskly until tingling sensation
is apparent, taking caro- not to make
the head smart. When the head is
perfectly dry there will appear thin
coating of salt.
In the morning wash the head care
fully with pure water, cold, no soap,
and apply a minute quantity of some
emolient.
l have never known an instance where
this remedy has been applied to hair
that is falling out that there was not an
immediate strengthening of the growth.
With some bald heads it has failed.
