Mrs. Bath Reported TO be In the
eyepn Hospital.

A rumor prevailed on the streets last
night that the missing Mrs. Herman
Bath had been found in the county hos
pital at Cheyenne. Diligent search
made by a reporter resulted in the fol-
lowing foundation for said rumor. Last
night a man arrived in Laramie, who,
on learning OF Mrs. Baths disappear
ance, said she was in Cheyenne; that
on the day following that on which she
so mysteriously disappeared an old lady
came to a hay camp, situated over the
range on the east, who could not talk
in~telligibly, and who seemed nearly
starved. She waslgiven a tent to sleep
in that night, and on the following day
one of the men hitched up a team and
took her to Cheyenne. The man who
relates this story says he raj cooking
for the haymakers; was out Of camp
when the woman arrived, and she left
before he got up next morning, 80 he
did not see her. He heard his compan-
ions talking about her, however, and is
confident she was the missing Mrs.
Bath.
D Dispatches were sent this morning
directing Sheriff Sharpless to hunt up
the man who is said to have taken the
woman in question to that city, and to
learn her present whereabouts. The
man who tells the above story gives
the name of this person, and it is be-
lieved the sheriff will be able to: find
him. No answers have been received
to these kilograms at the houroof going
to press. We are inclined to the be-
lief, however, that IL this mans story
is true, which some doubt, the woman
is not the missing Mrs. Herman Bath.
1t is hardly possible, in the first place,
that a person Of her age and infirmities
could travel so far, nor does it seem
probable that her presence in that city,
allowing that 1t is the long-sought for
woman, could so long have escaped the
notice of the oficers.-Boomerang.
The woman in question is mot Mrs.
Bath, but a German who was found on
the prairie some four weeks since,
without money, and who has since
been cared for here.

Tho bosses they wuz anxious for the tussle-

When up thar come a ridin', right afore the

He he'd a tin horn in his hand an spurs upon

An SIGH a yell / never heard ez come from

The fellers on the HOSES Hunked, an claimed

The jedges laughed to split Their sides, but
said the race wuz far
'fFur eny beast that he'd four legs an grew a

80 the jedges they got ready, an they Civ

An bull an bosses started all together-don't

When sudden Athaliar Civ a toot upon his

An stuck his spurs into the bull. Ez sure ez

The bull began to heller an the bosses flew

He took the lead, a-totfn' Athahar on his

Papers we're filed with Secretary
Morgan yesterday Incorporating the
Goshen-Hale ditch company, with a
capital of $500, 900, divided into 5000
shares of $50 each. The trustees are
Colin Hunter, Ii. B. Kelly, ]. London,
r. London and J. Hunter. Their
ditch, for which surveys have already
been made, will start at Hossoff's
ranch, about four miles below Fort
Laramie, and run thence down the
south side of the North Platte river to
a point on Horse creek about eight
miles above its mouth. The object of
the company is to open up the lands
through this section, which are very
fertile, to small settlers, and the ditch
will be managed much after the fash
ion Of the great irrigation bitches of
Colorado. The company claims to own
no land of its own there, but one of the
trustees controls about 1000 acres per-
sonally, while others W more or less.

DURING his rambles this season, our Mr.. n. has,
taken upon himself the task of satisfying our numer-
ousreaders that whatever goods are manufactured in
our goodly city of Roger Williams, arc of US high n
grade, and as fine in quality Us can be produced in any
spot on the globe. Especially is this so when the skilled
Pharmacists of many years experience resolves to ex.
tract from the finest botanical specimens of the vcgc-
table world the most potent cure for some special dis
ease. In proof Of his assertion that Providence, RI.
affords the best. he relates an interview with an &C.
quaintancc, given him while sojourning temporarily at
her residence. She says: about a year I suffered
severely from Rheumatism IN my limbs, and Neuralgia
in the head, which 1 endured two or three months with
as much patience as possible, being under the treat
ment Of an excellent doctor. and trying many kinds of
medicine without any marked effect. At last q medical
friend advised me to try Hunts Remedy, because he
attributed my severe suffering to the bad condition of
my kidneys, which were not performing their proper
functions, and 1 commenced taking It, and in a few
days the neuralgia had departed. my headache had en-
tirely disappeared, the swelling in my limbs and Joints
had gone, and l have not had o touch of it since. More
recently was troubled with impurity of the blood,
which showed itself in severe %eruptions on my face. I
again rcsOrtcstO Hunts Remedy, and after taking 1t q
short time was completely cured OF that complaint.
Hunts Remedy has proved very beneficial to me in at
tacks of sick headache, which it always alleviatcs, and
Hunts Remedy has strengthening elements. for it
has made me feel much stronger, and has been Very
beneficial to my general health. I most heartily rec
ommcnd 1t to all sufferers like myself. Mrs. L. G.
ANNIE, No. 1856 Pearl Street."

Painting House Walls.

If q plastered wall be new, and has
not been whitewashed, it will do to size
it with glue water; but if it has been
calcimincd or whitcwashed, which is
often the case, no glue sizing should ever
touch it. Any preparation of that kind
is liable, sooner or later, to peel off and
scoi! the surface for any future finish.
A safer way is ~ take oil and coat the
whole surface before painting, which
makes a fast union of any wash to the
wall. On such o base oil paints will
adhere perfectly.
i But the principal trouble in painting
walls is found in the detective character
of the p~lastering. If oneis building a
house, he can place the studding twelve
inches from center to ccnter,s so that
strong laths will not spring and break
up the mortar at every pressure. The
laths, too, should be spread o%ne-fourth
of an inch apart, and the mortar have
twelve pounds OF hair to the barrel of
lime. This will make a wall that will
stand like the walls Of the houses plas-
tered a hundred years ago The reason
why the plastering falls off from our
moIern houses is because the laths are
laid so close that the immediate SWELL
ing cuts off the clinch, and the mortar
is usually too sandy, and has but six
pounds OF hair. On such q surface are
laid three coats, when the clinch will
fail to hold one. Professional fathers
or masons themselves ought to lay the
laths and be sure of 81 large spread;
then ii the mortar is strong or rich,with
plenty of hair, there can be no falling off.
t have seen many houses so poorly plas-
| tered that the entire surface had to be
| cleaned off and replastered after q few
wears. A person coming into possession
| of such a dwelling, no sooner gets the
walls well painted to his taste than they
| begin to break up and distigure the
whole work. If you are sure the work
is well done, the ceiling as well as the
side walls may be painted to advantage.
When any portion becomes solIe' OF
smoked, it will then be an easy matter
to wash it off. Rooms once thoroughly
prepared in that wav last for q lifetime
and always look substantial and neat:
In case Of cracks, make some putty OF
the same color as the paint and Ill up.
