in the city yesterday, and when asked
regarding the condition of the cattle

severe winter, and that he believed that
fully fifty per cent. of the cattle be-

starving, and had tramped back and

til they were actually worn out.-Oma-

Charles IA Bessey, of the band, 3rd
cavalry, was to-day discharged the ser
vice, BY expiration of his term of enlist
ment. MI. Bessey intends entering
some civil pursuit, having served already
two enlistments in the army. Previous
to his transfer TO the band he was a
sergeant in company A, 3rd cavalry.
He was through the re campaign. and
in January, 1877, while in charge Of a
patty eff three men of company A, 3rd
cavalry. repairing the telegraph line
between Fort Laramie and Fort Fet-
terman, repulsed a largely superior force
Of hostile Indians which attacked them.
In the fight Sergeant Bessey and two
privates were wounded, and two horses
killed and one wounded. Sergeant Bes-
sey and party were thanked and COM
mended in general orders from depart
ment headquarters for their behavior
upon this trying occasion.
Within the past few days applications
have been made to the secretary of war
for certificates Of merit in the following
cases, having been approved by Colonel
Bracket: Private William d. Du Bots,
company @, 3rd cavalry, for gallantry
at the fight at Slim Buttes, d. T., Sept.
II, 1876, in which engagement he was
wounded.
Sergeant Edward McKiernan, COM
pany E, 3rd cavalry, for gallantry in
the same engagement. he having also
been wounded.
1t is hoped that the old saying that
republics are u~ngrateful may be dis
proved in these cases, and that the APP
plications may be favorably considered.
The weather having moderated we
are enjoying the music Of the band dali

snd Case OF n Young Lady Pursuing
Her Betrnycr.

-
When yesterdays emigrant train ar
rived at the Cheyenne depot, a young
lady of fine form and face approached
one of the clerks at the Union Pacific
hotel and, producing a cabinet size pho
tograph of a gentlem an, asked IL the
original Of the picture had been seen
here recently. The clerk confessed that
he had seen nothing of the young man.
Then she returned to the train, sad
dened and suffering from mental an
guish.
The case attracted attention, and the
facts were sought out. 1t was soon
learned that it was the old, old story.
''She loved not wisely, but too WELL"
Her history was obtained through a la
dy friend. She was born in San Fran
cisco and is twenty years of age. Her
parents are wealthy and she went into
the best of society. Being handsome
and accomplished she had many ~suitors,
among them Joseph Lacy, a fine, large,
handsome man, of about 30 years Of
age. Their friendship grew into q
courtship, and, before they had fixed
upon a wedding day. their intimacy had
become criminal in character. She still
trusted and confided in him, however,
and believed that he would soon wed
her. Meanwhile she grew into an in
teresting condition and sought to hast
en- matters. Finally he proposed to go
to Chicago and get married there and
settle down. She agreed, and about a
month ago they left San Francisco and
arrived in Chicago in due time.
But her betrayer now had her in his
clutches, and absolutely refused to
marry her. Things became too hot for
him there, so on Monday night last he
bought an emigrant ticket in Chicago
and left on the Rock Island road bound
for San Francisco.
When the young lady discovered the
departure of her gay Lothario, she
telegraphed to various points along the
route for his detention. She learned
that he had safely passed through Ne.
braska on a west bound emigrant train.
That is all the tidings she received.
She at once took the express for Omaha,
and, running short Of funds, she was
forced to resort to an emigrant train
for the remainder Of the distance t.
San Francisco.
At every station she makes the SAINT
inquiries and exhibits the photograph
hoping to learn something Of the hand
some and false one. She thinks he ha.
gone home to San Francisco and that
she will surely catch him there. Sht
says that a marriage or a murder viii
ensue, as her brothers will undoubtedl,
avenge her wrongs.

UngratefnI Robertson.

The New York Hour newspaper
gives credence TO the rumors that
since the shooting of the President,
Collector Robertson of New York,
(over whose nomination the bitter
fight was waged between the admin.
istration and Conkling forces) has
shown disposition to desert the
Half, breeds and go over to the Stall
warts. The Hour gives the follow.
ing statement as evidence of the
fact: III -g. ia. g..
Secretary Blaine, it seems, in the
usual way, suggested to Mr.. Robert.
son afew-a very few-appointments
in the custom house. By the code of
politics, Mr., Robertson, for all his
professed ardor as a civil service re.
former, was bound to respect the
suggestions of the Premier of the
Ministry to which he owed his Office.
Under ordinary circumstances, the
appointments desired by Mr.. Blaine
would have been made Immediately.
But they were not made, and no at.
tention was paid by the collector to
the wishes of the secretary. Mr..
Blaine, hurt by Mr.. Robertson's sin
gular Indifference and alarmed by the
rumors with which that Indifference
seemed to be consistent, took the
trouble to ask for an explanation
Mr.. Robertson's reply was curt and
decisive. Contrary to all precedent,
he informed Mr.. Blaine that he could
not crafty him and, in so many
words, declined to regard the obliga-
tions on which the latter insisted
OF course, such q step would not
have been taken without a distinct
end in view, and Mr.. Blaine has
quite naturally accepted it rs an in.
timation that Collector Robertson is
no longer in acute sympathy with
the Administration which appointed
him to his present post.
