the NORTH Park.
Hts Prospective Value as u Field of
Enterprise.


We were shown yesterday by B. W.
Towner, of North Park, some bright
and beautiful silver taken from the
Endomile and Rarus leads, in North
Park, about four miles from Teller
City. Mr.. Towner has Just had a mill
run Of this ore at the Argo establish
ment at Denver, and exhibited to us a
certificate showing that the Endomile
ore gives 100 ounces while the Rarus
gave seventy-two ounces The outlook
of the precious metal field in the park
Is all that could be desired, but capital
Is required.
BY the outlook, we mean the mines
are gradually being developed and the
conviction has been growing stronger
from year to year that the locality is
bound to boom one or later. On the
Endomile a thousand feet of work has
already been accomplished, the Rarus
has but $50 feet, but as it is merely a
continuation Of the former 1t will share
in reputation with it.
The Endomile now only needs the
necessary machinery to make it profit
able. 1t has a breadth between the
walls of eighteen feet with four and a
half foot streak of ruby ore. Fully a
million and a half tons are in sight and
about one hundred dollars worth of
ore on the dump. Professor jerks has
made a written report which is in all
why the North Park people should not
be impressed with the idea that at no
distant day there will be business
there, seeing that they have plenty Of
coal, unexcelled timber, good water
power and a climate more reliable than
is to be found on the Laramie plains.
While there is a good deal of snow
there, the winters are never severe.
On account of the absence of winds,
the stock cannot well winter off the
grass, but the soil is good and album
dance of an excellent quality of hay can
be cut. The altitude is between nine
and ten thousand feet, but this seems
to be no barrier to a settlement of the
country, as the population is steadily
increasing from year to year. A rail
road to the region from Laramie City
cannot be delayed a great while as it is
known the Union Pacific is studying
the resources of the park with 3 view
of calculating the loss and gain in such
an enterprise.

A special meeting Of the Stockgrow-
ers' association will be held at the court
house at 10 O'Clock this morning, at
which some very important business Is
to be transacted. A well planned
scheme for stealing mavericks and alter
ing brands is just being put In opera
ton by cowboys iu the northern coun-
try. which. If not Immediately checked.
will result in heavy losses to cattlemen.
A number of brands have been regis
tered Of late so nearly like those now in
use, that the addition Of a few straight
lines and curves make them identical.
1t is plain that by a proper manipula-
ton OF branding irons cattle can be
stolen in unlimited numbers. The
scheme has not yet been worked much,
however, the projectors evidently being
now ouly feeling their way, with the
idea that if not much attention is paid
to them they can work it for all it is
worth this winter. The proper thing
to do is evidently to nip the conspiracy
i'll the bud, and the cattlemen will I'M
doubtedly in%augurate stringent mea-
sures to accomplish this end.

DIED.

A telegram yesterday, dated Chica-
go, from AIRS. George Jones, briefly
stated that her husband had died the
day previous from paralysis. Mr..
Jones is too well known to the citizens
Of Cheyenne to need any enconiums
from US. As a man and citizen he was
highly esteemed here. AS landlord of
the Railroad house for a number Of
years he became widely known and
universally respected for his accommo-
dating spirit and thorough business
habits. His many friends will be pain
ed to learn of his death. The sympa-
thies of the Cheyenne public will be ex-
tended to his sorrowing and devoted
wife.
A meeting of the Pioneer club Of
Cheyenne will be held in the City Hall
on Saturday night to take such action
relative to the death of Nj. Jones as
may be deemed proper.

British Capital In American CattI,

British Capital In American Cattle.
Mr.. Lionel SaItoris, who, by the way,
Is a near relative to Gen. Grants SON
in.law. and an English gentleman Of
business ability and enterprise, is Or
ganizing an English company to go into
the ranch and cattle business on the
line of the Northern Pacific railway.
In company with two or three other
capitalists similarly engaged, Mr.. Sar-
toris passed through Chicago the pre-
sent week. Mr.. Frewen, one Of the
party, has been in the business in Wyo-
ming and southern Montana for FIVE
years. His company now owns $4,000
head of cattle. In an Interview with a
reporter, Mr.. Frewen gave considerable
information about the cattle business in
this country. He says it has so far
proved the most profitable business in
the world. Cattle are now too high for
stocking purposes. The Oregon and
several other trails will be closed this
year. The Texas drive he estimates at
less than 100000 head, which is some
what lower than the southwestern esti-
mates heretofore given. Cattle produc-
tion is not keeping pace with the in
crease of population and it is difficult
to see where the future meat supply of
the country is to come from. High
prices must be looked for. Mr.. Frewen
estimates that English capital to the
extent of $40, 0O0, 900 is now invested
In the ranch and cattle business in this
country, most Of which has gone to
Texas. His company Ia breeding bulls
on the ranges. They are much better
when acclimated, and more useful.
Native Illinois and Wisconsin stock is
much better for the range than the i'm
ported, and in blood the equal. In re-
gard to Strengthening at distant points,
he remarked: 81 see that 1t is proposed
to slaughter beef at Miles City, on the
Northern Pacific. 1t would prove a
great assistance to our business. We
could ship dressed beef to Chicago,
New York, or to England, as the re-
frigerating system is now nearly perfect.
The shipping of live stock is wasteful
and expensive, and cattle are unneces-
sarily bruised in the transfer"

Shoshone, Idaho, like all new places,
is infested with gamblers and their at
tendAnt train of roughs and loafeIs.
Naturally an antagonistic feeling ex-
lists between these and the more re-
spected class of citizens. A few days
ago some arrests were made, which in
cluded a railroad man and q gambler.
Last evening a party Of railroad men
left the round house, after dark, for
the jail, their purpose being TO procure
the release of their friend who was in
carcerated. Seeing them going in such
number, the gambling fraternity put
the natural Interpretation upon the
move; that its intent was to lynch
their man. Hastily gathering their
crowd, they hurried to the jail, and up
on coming up to the railroad men,
opened fire on them, wounding a man,
whose name we have not ascertained.
The firing brought out a constable,
who was compelled to use his revolver
in the interest of peace, and he shot
among the crowd of gamblers and
roughs, killing one of them named
James Doran. The gamblers then
disappeared. That there were no o
injured in the fight is due to the ex-
treme darkness OF the night, the COM
batants being unable to see each other
clearly. The war between the classes
has now been opened and further trou-
BILE may be expected at any time.-Og-
den Pilot.

In pursuance of the notice already
issued a meeting was held last evening
at the Baptist church to perfect the or
ganization of a vocal society. Mr.. @.
n. Potter acted as temporary chairman
and stated the object of the meeting.
The list Of names proposed As officers
already published in this paper-was
read, and on motion the names offered
were elected by the secretary of the
meeting, Mr.. Marshall johnson, casting
the ballot. The only change in the
list was the substitution of Mr.. T. W.
Chaffee's name for that of Mr.. w. A.
Whiteomb on the executive committee.
The meeting then, under the direction
Of Mr., Whitcomb, with Mrs. Holt at
the organ, occupied about an hour in
the singing of sacred and glee music,
with a result gratifying in the extreme
to all concerned.
Another meeting will be held on
Thursday evening next, the 18th inst.
at the same place, and a large turnout
is anticipated. New music has been
ordered, and the society will at once
proceed to active rehearsal for a grand
concert, to be given in the near future.
A full list of the officers will be pub
lished in tO-morrow's LEADER.

PINK TEA.

TBY A cHEYEssE o A LITTLE OBSCURE
What is this, Joe,
This Pink Tea show
To be given tonight at Library halle
Is 1t tonight
Yes, that's right.
It's a church fair or supper, that's all.
Motifs Pink Tea.
Oh yes. 1 see.
Well, this Is entirely a new thing to me
Down east to-day.
They're fine they say;
The most prope thing In their way, you see.
They dress tho hall
And the ladies all,
In the most beautiful shades of pink;
But for cake and pie,
And oyster fry,
Some other color would suit better, I think.
Oh. everything pink
How fine, just think;
h hall, the indies, the tek and the supper,
You eat or drink.
Everything pink,
And dance till your face is pink or purple.
At a Pink Tea,
Tea pink should be,
No matter what color other things possess.
For chaps like me, y
Black or green tea.
Meier could induce me my wealth to invest.
Com Joe, let's go,
For well we know,
IT. a very popular thing to go and see.
Nice 1t will be.
Now don't you see?
Just think, how pink
The hall, the ladies all.
Both great and small.
The tea, and you and me,
For most perfect pinks OF perfection are we.

Mr.. Gathers, of the North Park stage
line, after carefully inspecting the
North Park road from Laramie, esti-
mates that 1t will require S400 to place
that thoroughfare in 6rst-class shape;
but that the expenditure of half that
amount, or 5000, would render it pass
able. At present the road is in a horri-
BILE condition, particularly along Beaver
creek, where several loaded wagons are
now fast in the mud, or lying on their
sides, broken.
In compliance with their request, Mr..
Gathers has sent in his report to the
Fort Collins people, and it is quite
probable they will raise the money and
repair the road, and thus secure tue
trade from that region unless we get In
ahead of them. Surely $3.50 or $500
could be raised without trouble among
those of our business men who are es-
p~ecially benefited by the trade from
the North park country. If anything
is to be done, too, it should be done at
once. The fall is far advanced, and
Jack Frost will soon prevent. Can we
afford to lose this trader If not, what
are we going to do about itP-Boome-
rang.

The other day one of our well-known
citizens took a little trip to Denver with
a friend to see the sights and enjoy a
little relaxation. On the way down his
friend asked him If he knew Denver
we'll. Know Denverl II he didn't
know Denver nobody did. Arriving at
the depot he eagerly inquired if there
were any hacks in the city. Being
assured hat there were one or two he
insisted on hiring one Immediately, lest
some u should get in ahead. A hack
was chartered and the two friends pro-
ceeded to their destination, upon arriv-
ing at which one of them started to pay
the hackman, but the man who ''knew
Denver'' protested against it. If they
let this carriage 60 they might not find
another, so it was retained. The gen.
tleman seemed to be impressed with the
idea that Denver wasn't big enough to
support more than n hack, and that
everyone on the street was eager to snap
up that one. The two gentlemen got
through the night safely, however, and
didn't have to walk more than they
chose to. Yesterday morning the man
who ''knew Denver'' got into a hack
and started out alone to get a drink.
He has not been seen since, and his
friend came home last night without
him. Any information as to his where
abouts will be thankfully received by
large circle of mourning friends.

We acknowledge the receipt of the
Laramie City directory, from the office
of the Boomerang. The work was
compiled by Messrs. Garrett 81 Nor
gan, and is as far as we know as com
plete as is possible to make it.
We have also received the Cheyenne
directory, printed at the Sun office, and
compiled under The direction of A. R.
johnson. The work shows a large in
crease of our population, and certainly
will be a valuable reference @bookAfor
the coming year.
