AMESEAI EETS.

THEATER.-The repetition of Hump
ty Dumpty last evening did not suffer
by comparison with the proceeding
nights performance save in regard to
numbers in the audience. In fact, the
stage work ran more smoothly and in
many minor points there was "a marked
improvement.
McCreedie is a whole orchestra with
an ebony baton thrown in. His bust
ness, as exhibited during the past two
evenings at the opera house, is as TAX
ing as it is novel and absurd. His
broom fiddle as a colored preacher dis
coursing upon temperance is a most
excruciatinglyfunny card, and will take.
A little more speed in the by-play
would improve it, but as it is it
catches.
ROSE EYTNGE is the next attrac-
ton at the opera house-on the 23rd. A
veritable treat.

Rev. J. Davis, who organized the
First Congregational church of this
city in 1859 and was the first settled
pastor in the Magic City, arrived in
this city yesterday stopping off on his
way to Japan, where he has been sue
c~essfully laboring as a missionary since
1871, until about a year ago, when. ill
health obliged him to take a vacation.
He is accompanied by his wife and
children, and two young Japanese
ladies who have been studying in this
country and are on their return home.
They are Miss Stematsu TamakaTa, a
very intelligent young lady and a
graduate of Vassar, and Miss Une
Tsuda.
Having sufficiently recovered his
health to resume his labors. Mr.. Davis
is now en- route to Japan, but stops
owe in this city to renew old acquain-
tances and visit the scene of his earnest
labors of years ago. There are those
in the city whose acquaintance with
Mr.. Davis extends back to the time
when he was Col. Davis of the 52nd
Illinois, and see in this ministerial
labors the same energy and earnest
ness which characterized him then.
Mr.. and Mrs. Davis are guests of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. S. Taylor until their
departure Tuesday next.

Drovers' Journal: Many people fall
into the error of making a difference
between "Texas cattle" and Grange
cattle" Cattle range" in Texas, the
Indian territory, ETC., the same as in
Wyoming or Montana.
Texas Live Stock Journal: Making
a summary of the causes which justify
the prediction of high prices in 1888,
we find the following to be the most
important: The short supply of native
cattle in the United States; che scarcity
of aged cattle left in herds on the range;
the universal short crops of hogs, and
the small amount of corn obtainable at
prices which justify feeding-all of
these combined convince us that stock
men have no need to fear the outcome
next year.
Says a telegram from Wichita, Kan:
Prominent stockmen just in from the
Indian territory report that the late
protracted dry spell has been somewhat
disastrous to the cattle upon the range.
The range became very dusty and dry,
and there was a scarcity of water. The
grass wa dry and almost indigestible,
and for this reason the stomach became
feverish, causing plack-leg, murrain
and Spanish fever. The grass has again
become green and the cattle generally
are improving.
Kansas City Price Current: 1t seems
impossible for western cattle men to
keep out of the r~anching business. 1t
has been less than three weeks since
George D. Ford sold out his ranch in
Panhandle, Texas, to Messrs. Towers
& Gudgell, and announced that he was
out of the business and would invest
his money in Kansas City real estate.
But the title to his cattle and ranch in
No-Man's-Land had no sooner passed
from him than he yearned for more cat
tie, and last week he bought of the
Englishman, McGardner, his burro
ranch in Mora county, New Mexico,
consisting of a grant of land and 2,10O
cattle, for $4,000.

CnEYENNE COTTAGE COMPANY.


By articles of incorporation filed in
the office of the county clerk yesterday,
the Cheyenne Cottage company was
chartered to do business here. Ac-
cording to the articles filed, the object
and nature of the company are, 1.-THE
purchasing and selling of real estate,
cottages and other dwelling houses,
warehouses and store houses, and the
building, holding and renting the same,
and the acquiring, holding and using
such other property, real and personal,
as shall be necessary for the said COM
pany." In a word, the business Of the
company is practically to build and rent
cottages. The company starts out with
a cash capital of S75, 900, which is di-
vided into 1,5OO shares of a par value
of $50 each. The incorporators of the
company are j.. G. Baird, John N. Col
Inns, and Sam. G. Boutwell,. Five
trustees will have the management of
the company in hand. They consist of
J. c. Baird, Alexander d. Collins,
John b. Morrow, Sam. c. Boutwell,
and John +. Carroll. The company's
officers will be j. G. Baird, president;
Jno. +. Carroll, vice-president; Sam.
&. Boutwell,, secretary and general
manager; and John w. Collins, treas
urer.
The Cottage company has none of
the peculiar characteristics of the build
ing and loan associations which were
so popular in the east a few years ago.
The present company is formed on a
radically different basis, and closely re-
sembles the English companies which
have been so successful in different Col
orado towns. The stock is non.assessa-
BILE. The majority of it has been pur-
chased by home capital, and the re-
mainder is pledged in the east.
The need of just such an enterprise
has long been felt in this city. The
supply of houses has never been equal
to the demand. Prominent real estate
men calculate that at least one hundred
houses of the comfortable cottage va
riety would be eagerly taken up and oc-
cupied by the present population alone.
Many families that are now compelled
to occupy rooms require but the oppor-
tunity to rent dwellings. The compa-
ny already own a number of building
lots and houses, and starts in at once
with an assured tw%elve-per cent. on
capital invested; dividends are to be
paid quarterly. The erection of new
buildings will be begun early in the
spring, when cottages costing from
S1,5OO to $1,000 will be principally
erected. 1t is the intention of the
management to offer prizes to Cheyenne
architects for plans for such model cot
'tages as are most suited to this climate.

A W DOL CLIP.

Breeders of Shropshire sheep in Eng
land are forming . society for the pub
l~ICati0n of a flock book and doing such
other work as may be deemed for the
good of the breeders.
The London Standard says: The New
Zealand shipping company's sailing
ship Matoura, ninety-six days out from
Port Chalmers, was signaled off Start
Point IN Wednesday evening, and re-
ported that the refrigerating engine
had throughout the voyage worked
admirably. The Matoura has on board
5000 carcases of New Zealand bred
sheep. averaging 10 pounds per car
cass, which will shortly be in the mar
ket for sale.
1t is said in the last fourteen years
the number of sheep in Iowa has SHRINK
from 1854, 600 to 436, $50, a. loss of CT
per cent. Lack of proper shelter and
food in winter, of fences to enable
formers to keep small Aocks, and the
ravages of the wolf and his congener,
the ubiquitous dog, are the chief causes
of this decline of one of the most i'm
portant branches of farming.
Says an experienced writer: ''Sheep
plentifully supplied with green heritage
keep in higher condition than when
confined to that which is dry. High
condition promotes those secretions
which form wool. Every one at all
conversant with sheep well knows that
if kept fleshy the year round they pro-
duce far more wool than if kept poor.
Ahalf a pounds difference per head is
easily made in this way. Within the
maximum and minimum Of the produce
of a sheep or a flock. the ratio of pro-
duction always comedies with that of
condition.

The article in which the above par
agraph appeared was one printed by
the Sun with the purpose of showing
that NJ. E. Post did not secure such
mail facilities in the territory as he
might have done had he h9en active in
his duties as delegate. The direct
charge in the paragraph is, that Mr..
Post is responsible for the failure to es-
tablish a mail service between Cheyenne
and the Black Hills.
Now, what are the facts? Is there
no such servicep Was any such author
lied by the postofice Department.
The mail route via the Cheyenne and
Black Hills stage company's route was
discontinued in 1880. Mr.. Posts term
of office began March 4th, 1881.
Route 81, 103 was established in 1881,
in accordance with a contract advertis-
ed in October, 1880. 1t authorized a
mail to be carried seven times a week
from Cheyenne to Horsehead, Dakota,
IN the Sidney road, there connecting
with a route running further into Da-
kota. Before the bonds were sent to
the contractor, the acknowledgement
ordered the mail to be carried but three
times a week from Cheyenne TO Raw
hide Buttes, and 10 be discontinued
from Rawhide to Horsehard. Through
the persistent exertions Of Mr.. Post,
who urged the Importance of frequent
mails to the miners and cattle men of
this region, the p~ostoffice department
increased the services to Rawhide to
seven times a week, and put on a mail
twice a week to Buckhorn.
There is now running a mail from
Hat Creek to Spearfish, Dakota, which
was secured through the services of Mr..
Post. %

is becoming a nuisance which should
be suppressed. He is breaking window
glass and annoying people generally an
cog, as it were, for no one can tell
from whence it comes. The young
fellow breaks a city ordinance when
ever he breaks a window light just as
much when he does it with a pebble as
with a rock. Their gum shooters
