No Fences on Public Lands.

CHEYENNE. Aug. 23.-The famous "fence
case waa decided to-day In the District Court
by Chief Justice j. b. Senor, The case has
been the suhIari of much discussion among
the stock men here, aud by the Interior and
Law D.paItuirIils al Washington. The de-
cision, II upheld by the superior courts, will
affect In u radical manner stock raising in
Wyoming. Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Montana,
Arizona, New Mexico, ksnsas and Nebraska.
No decision has ever been made on this
question, aud Judge Senor's opinion forms q
precedent. The case Is that of the United
States vs.. A. III. Swan ana others. IL Is q
bill In equity, asking for an Injunction to
sbate fence which had unlawfully enclosed
eleven sections Of Government lands and to
restrain defendants from the erection of other
such fences on like unoccupied sections OF
the public domain. This was brought as q
test case. and was twice very elaborately ar
eued by Brown, u. S. District Attorney for
Culo, ado. for the United States, and by Cor
lett & Rosendale, Of Cheyenne, for defend
ants. The case has been under sdvisement
for month, and with the result that the
fenrss must he removed. The opinion ID
elaborate aud carefully prepared. It cites
and relies on as authority decisions Of Lords
Elder and Cottenham, In England, and de-
cisions Of the supreme Courts Of Pennsyl-
wanna, Georgia. Alabama, Wisconsin and
Michigan, and the case Of the United States
Va. Duluth, reported in First Dillon, being
the decision of Judge Miller Of the Supreme
Court Of the United States on cognate ques.
tions; and concludes that the unlawful FEM

How Littl. They See of the Que. N

Mr.. Labouchere, the plain spoken and ir-
rsverent "Labby," N. p, has been sum-
moned to Windsor Castle once or twice, and
regardless of the duty owed by guest to his
host, especially II that host Is royal person,
takes advantage of every opportunity to
make light Of the Queens receptions. He
has ssbeen there" He knows that they are
formal aGairs, and does not hesitate to say
%. 'People are vastly mistaken" he says,
s.if they suppose that visit to Windsor sig
ni6es confidential intercourse with the royal
hostess" The guests and such of the house,
hold - are included In the royal party, as
semble in the corridor, and the Queen enters
from her priva.e apartments just as the re-
past Ii announced, and accords formal
greeting to each person. The company then
goes into the ciniLg room. After dinner the
party meet again in the corridor, and her
majesty goes around the circle, speaking per-
haps for two minutes to each person, after
which she retires, and The guests adjourn to
one Of the drawing rooms TO finish the even
ing with music or cards. Next morning
they leave without having again seen the
Queen.

a Tempest in the European Teapot.

LONDON, August 23.-The Times, COM
menting on the Berlin North German Ga
zette's article referring to the attacks of the
French journals on Germany and declaring
that France alone threatens the peace Of
Europe, says the irritation shown by the lat
ter paper cannot be explained by the reason
assigned, as the French press upon the whole
have been very moderate In regard to Ger
many. The article Of the North German
Gazette startled Paris, alarmed Europe and
caused prices on the bourses of Paris, Vienna
and Berlin TO fall. The press everywhere
express surprise at the Gazette's attack on
France and wonder what its object ID.
French papers repel the charges contained
In the article and intimate that France is
better prepared now TO say that Bismarck Is
seeking pretext for quarrel or for the i'm
position of the French army. The Austrian
press ask If the articles mean war. English
journals think the warning was overdone
and the cause for 1t insufficient. IL would
be because they wish to attach too much
significance to the article.

Jewish Persecution.

ST. PETERSBURG, August 27.--Advices
from Ekaterinoslaf, the scene Of the great
riots against the Jews, say that 346 houses
were wrecked and plundered during the
progress Of the riots. The loss sustained by
Jew. Is estimated at 900 roubies. Four

troops In qnelling the outbreak, have since
died, making the total killed 2S Numerous
cases of jew batting are reported elsewhere,
but the police and troops acting with energy
In most instances promptly suppI essed any
attempts Of outrages against The jews. At
Berdicha, however, eighty houses Of jews
were fired and their former inmates were
left without shelter and are suffering great
privafions.
VIENNA, August 27.--violent riots against
the Jews occurred at Egerszeg, Hungary,

peasants took part In the outbreak, and
wrecked all the houses and shops of the

THE POSTAL TELEGRAPH.
Mackay in Full Control, and viii Adopt tho
English System.

CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-New York special 4:
had talk with bonanza Mackay about the
new concern a day or two ago. The compa-
ny has transferred twelve millions Of its
stock TO the mining king, which gives him q
million over the controlling interest in the
company. Mackay tells me that it will be
run OF the principles adopted by the En-
glish Government telegraph system; uni
form charges are to be made, whether mes
sages are sent only across the street or from
New York to San Francisco. These charges
will be 25 cents for twenty words, and one
cent for every additional word. A good fea-
ture of the scheme is the issuing of stamps
for various sums with which to prepay mes
sages. Mackay says Fair, his former partner,
may 60 into the affair, and he believes it will
prove an immensely money making scheme,
because the public will have confidence in
its permanency by reason Of the clause In
the charter forbidding the company from
consolidating with any other for period of
at least twenty years. Connection Is to be
established with the new cable company fos-
tered by Mr.. Alderman Healy, of London,
who was over here a little while ago. The
Work of pushing this company forward will
60 ahead very rapidly now. Branches are
being established from Olean, New York, to
the oil region. A large force Is also at work
Joining Chicago aud st. Louis; almost I'M
mediately steps are to be taken toward San
Francisco, and inside of eight months the
Postal will be In complete working order.

POETRY.
IN THE LAST PEW.


She sits, bent DER with wrinkled face,
Poor and forlornly old; no grace
Smooth the sharp angles of her form,
Long bufieted by life's slow storm,
All else around is inc and fair;
The stained light falls, golden glare,
In seeming mockery on her loose gray hair.
The preacher, faultlessly arrayed,
Tells how our hearts afar have strayed,
And how all souls should be content
With these good blessings God has sent,
And one Of all that selfpoised thrpng
Hangs on his word aer deems them long,
And humbly thinks only her heart is wrong.
She meekly mumbles DER the hymn,
Her eyes with age and tear-drops dim;
What can their gay world hold for her
This worn and weary worshipper?
Now, rustling down the aisle in pride,
They toss bright smiles on every side,
Nor does she know the hearts such fair looks
hide.
And still she sits with tear-wet face,
As 10th to leave that sacred place;
The organ, with quick thunders riven,
Lifts her sad, trembling soul to Heaven;
She feels a sense Of blissful rest,
Her bony hands across her breast
She clasps, and slowly sighs: "God knoweth
best"
One day, within some grander gate,
When kings and ministers must wait,
While she hopes humbly for low place
Far from the dear Lords shining face,
Above the chant OF heavenly choir
These words may sound, with heavenly fire ::
"Well done, good faithful servant, come up
higherw

A Singular Tombstone.

Doctor Prime, the venerable editor of the
New York Observer, usually spends the
summer months travelling in his native
State, and about New England, and wherev-
er he stops he is . welcome visitor. His
weekly letters In the Observer are widely
read, and are enjoyed by everybody.
In his travels Iren8us comes across some
quaint people, and many queer things which
he keenly appreciates, and he gives an ac-
count of them in his interesting letters.
Among his last discoveries, DIR. Prime has
found an odd monument In Northern New
York, which had been erected to the MEM
ory Of q most excellent woman. A good
man had lived happily with devoted wife
until they were we'll on in years, when she
died. He bethought him Of some fitting
memorial to place over her grave, and the
happy thought struck him that the square
stove, by which they had been comfortable
through many long winters, would be just
what she would like to have II she bad q
voice In the matter. He had the stove taken
to the churchyard and placed over the re-
mains OF his companion, who sleeps quietly
underneath 1t.

THE LOST LEDGE.
The Greatest Mystery of the Mining World.
Austin ReueilLe. l7M.

dustin ReueilIe, l7h.
A few days since the Reueitte spoke of the
early days Of Big Creek and Of It's failure as
Q mining camp. Ledges were there, but
they were 80 base that no known process
could make them profitable, and so Big
Creek became Gesertel as mining center.
But the greatest failure or rather mystery
known In the annals of mining, is the loss
of the Whltlach Union ledge. The mine Is
over In Marshal canyon, and over mile and
half from town. In early days 1t was dis
covered aud opened out. Just imagine q
ledge between seven and eight feet thick of
500 ore! Yet fabulous as this seems, the
Whitlsch Union had just such ledge. It
was like mining $40 pieces. A fine hosting
works was erected, many men were employ
ed, the mine opened out systematically and
the owners were preparing to sit back and
ing like 1t had ever been heard of before.
Everything went along swimmingly for q lit
tie while until one day the miners came TO q
break in the ledge. II was ss good as ever
the break was as clean and complete as If 1t
had been cut with knife. Beyond and all
around was nothing but barren rock. OF
course we can 6nd 1t again, thought the own
ers; IL has only slipped oil during some
earthquake or other commotion Of nature,
and few days prospecting will bring 1t to
light. Full of this idea they commenced
prospecting and they kept prospecting until
thousands Of feet of drifts and shafts had
been run and sunk, and fortunes spent, but
still no ledge. Nor has 1t been found TO this
day, nov many years after. A large stand
Ing reward has been offered for Its discovery,
but the hills have SO completely buried their
secret that most prying inquisitiveness of the
most experienced miners has failed to get It.
Theories of all kinds have been advanced,
and many Of them put to practical tests, but
all In vain, the Whitlach Union will not re-
veal lie hiding place. 1t is . very common
thing for the Manhattan ledges to break of
In the sane shape, but the miners know just
where TO 60 and pick up the other piece of
IL. The same tactics, applied on the Whit
Zach Union, utterly failed TO discover the
lost ledge. When it quit IL vas not very
deep, and the surrounding country has been
90 thoroughly hOneycombed by miaep
searching for IL that 1t seems pretty clearly
established that 1t is not anywhere near the
portion that was worked out. But where Is
itf Some OF these days 1t may be stumbled
across just as lucky miner finds nugget.
Until that time 1t will be spoken of as the
lost ledge-forming mystery unequalled in
the history of mining.

PARIS, August 27.-The Temps has tele-

EX-SENATOR KIRKwooD's VIEWS.
He Thinks Well of the Northern Countr,


Iowa CITY, Ia, August 25.-Governor
Kirkwood, ex-Secretary OF the Interior, has
lust returned from Q months trip TO the Pa
cidc Coast - one Of the Government ON
cIals, TO examine snd report the manner of
construction Of the additional forty miles Of
the California & Oregon railway, now being
constructed between San Francisco and Port
land by land grant corporation. Ths ex-
Secretary added observation and pleasure TO
business In bis extended trip. His outgoing
route was by the Northern Pacific from st.
Paul to Tacoma, thence to Portland, return
inc via San Francisco over the Central and
Union Pacific lines. The Governor speaks
most Enthusiastically Of the great ives: and
promising future OF Wyoming, Washington
Territory, Colorado, Idaho, Montana and
Oregon. He says the mountainous portions
Of Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington
Territory are covered with the finest and
most valuable timber In the Western region,
besides the mining interests are extensive
and add largely TO the resources and wealth
Of the country. As IN evidence Of this, to-
gether with the large cattlegrowiDg interests,
may mention the fact that one Of the banks
in the beautiful and active business town OF
Helena, the Territorial capital, and about
1 half the size Of Iowa City, had deposit Of
nearly g. .000, 600, which speaks we'll for the
| productive interests of this section Of Mon
iana. The fine appearance Of 4he cattle Was
observable, which Is favorable commentary
on the climate and productive qualities
the soil.

the completion of the Northern Pacific will
settle Washington and Oregon very rapidly.
There are already, think, more thriving
towns along its line than along the Central
and Union Pacific, though obseryations from
railroad do not always gather tho best
views, - they quite generally follow streams.
