About as cool and daring an opera
ton as is often experienced was perfor-
med in this city yesterday. About noon
Mr.. Kemp, of the Powder River Cattle
company, left his office to go for his
mail. He vas not absent more than
ten minutes, but Oh his return found
that his safe, which had been left open,
had been tempered with, and an iron
plated drawer, containing some Sl2, 600
in checks, had been taken. He at
once notified the police, and on his re-
turn to the office proceeded to investi.
gate further. lie found that the thief
had entered his sleeping room by u
window opening into the hall and
passed thence into the Office. He took
a revolver from its sheath where it was
hanging mt the head of Mr.. Kemp's
bed, and moved the bureau into
the corner of the room. 1t Is prob
able that he was hiding behind
this while Mr.. Kemp was in the room.
As soon as the coast was clear he pro-
ceeded to Dyer's hotel, where he regis
tered as John Neal, of Omaha, and
asked TO be shown at once to his room
as he did not feel well. Arriving at
the room he opened the box, aud find
ing in 1t nothing of value to himself,
threw IL and its contents out of the
window. This action was observed by
]. Herman, who, suspecting something
wrong, Immediately notified Mr.. Dyer
and they vent at once to Meals room .
The bird had flown, however, and is
still at large. He is described by the
hotel clerk as of medium size, with
slightly sore eyes, and Il very smooth
and a address. All the checks and
papers taken were recovered.

Yesterday the LEADER received a
specimen Of what Wyoming can do in
the way of agriculture IN the shape Of
a very fine lot of potatoes, also a ruta
baga weighing eleven pounds, and a
winter radish of six pounds. They
we're raised by Kels z. Michel, who
has a ranch on Middle Crow creek,
about three-quarters of a mile from the
Copper King mine, and were raised
without irrigation. They were badly
damaged in the frosts of August 10 and
81, but recovered from It's effects. Mr..
Nickel raised on an average over 600
bushels to the acre the past summer,
aud intends to construct a ditch and
thy again on a larger scale. From one
potato received last spring. having
eight eyes, he produced twenty-five
pounds, the three largest weighing six
pounds, Other kinds of vegetables
were found to flourish equally AS we'll.
That out the Il WHO says Wyoming
can produce nothing but cowboys and
coyotes.

Probably the finest lot of thorough
bred horses even seen in Cheyenne are
now at Abney's stable. They include
Lord Raglan, a chestnut stallion, by
Ten Brock, out of Katina; Monarch, a
chestnut stallion, by Monarchist, the
best four year old of the season; Annie
Louise, a bay mare, by Glenelg, cut of
Fine Work, a daughter of the great
Lexington; Gray Cloud, a yearling, by
Hydralla, and two bay Gllies by the
same sire. They are on their way to
the breeding farm of Noah Armstrong,
Of Glendale, Montana, in charge of j.
A. Davis. Lord Raglan was cut down
IN a ace at Saratoga, badly iDjuring
his off hind leg, and If this is in good
shape to-day they will go out tonight,
II not, tomorrow.

Prison Pets

Il is somewhat surprising to what ex-
tent men confined in prison will succeed
in DEMONSTRATING different kinds of
animals. The Boston Herald says that
this practice has, perhaps, never been
more successfully developed than at the
State Prison at Concord, where there are
men who, in a number of instances,
derive great comfort from the companion
ship of different species of animals, and
while away many a lonely hour by train
ing them, while in their cells, to perform
different tricks. At the present time
one of the most noted convicts in the
institution has a pet mouse which
he has caught and trained to whirl
a small wheel arranged on the same
has two wharf rats whichhe has toled into
his cell, fed, and 50 completely domesti-
Gated that they will 60 through a tight
rope performance in his cell when they
are hidden to do so. Others have trained
mice and rats which they carry in their
pockets to and from the workshops, and
become greatly attached to them. The
trained pet canary Of Jesse Pomeroy,
the boy fend, has just died. He was
a fine singer, and Jesse grieves very
much on account of the birds death, for,
in solitary confinement, he has been
much cheered by the singing. He now
expects his mother will bring or send
him another canary soon. The steward
in the hospital department has several
pet canaries, and one Of them has been
trained to a remarkable degree. A
colored convict, formerly a well-known
waiter in one of the leading Boston
hotels, who occupies a strong cell, has
succeeded in %propagating pigeons in a
peculiar ann The window Of his
cell opens into the prison yard, and on
this window he placed bread-crumbs
until he trapped a pair of pigeons. He
afterward caught three more in the same
way, clipped their wings, and they
that they have built a nest underneath
his bed, and at present have three young
doves which they have reared. One Of
the old pigeons is coal black, and this
one the darkey has named after his wife,
and all the rest have names. He reg
ularly feeds his flock from his own allow
ance. The other convicts felt very much
disappointed because the large number
of doves formerly kept at the prison
were killed and the matched dovecote
removed. At one time a number of
domesticated skunks were kept in the
prison yard, and they were cared for by
the %convicts. There are now numerous
cats in different parts of the prison, and
if a person wishes to get the ill-will of a
convict he only needs to modest "his'
cat. These animals always disappear
from view when visitors come to the
prison, for they always know a stranger.

Bears Throwing Ice.

J. Rae tells the following story in
Nature, the circumstances Of which were
given him by an eyewitness, a very
truthful and honest Esquimaux Of
Repulse Bay. He said: ri and two or
three other lnnuit were attempting to
approach some walrus in winter, Wing
on the ice close to the water, kept open
by the strong current, in Fox's Channel.
AS we were getting zeal we saw that a
large white bear was before us. He had
reached in the most stealthy manner
a high ridge Of ice, Immediately above
where the walrus was lying; he then
seized a mass of ice in his paws, reared
himself on his hind legs, and threw the
ice with great force on the head of a
half-grown walrus, and then sprangdown
upon it." The Esquimaux then ran up,
speared the bear, and found the walrus
all but dead, thus securing both animals.
l should add that the bear threw the ice
as if he was 'left-pawed."

Show me the way.
Show me the way to that calm, perfect peace.
Which springs from inward consciousness of
right,
To where these conflicts with the flesh shall
cease.
And self shall radiate with the spirits light.
Tho hard the journey and the strife, Lord, l
pray, .
Show me the way.
