from the interior it is simply absurd. The

Yesterday Hon. r. II. Homer, of the
council, received from Laramie City
the skin of a gigantic mountain lion,
killed by his foreman, F. E. Canton,
near his ranch eight miles south of Red
Buttes. The hide measured eight feet
from the head to the tip OF the tail and
the lion was such a monstrous one that
the united strength of two men was IN.
sufficient to load the animal into the
wagon when it vas taken to Larimie
City. The lion was shot by his fore
man on an occasion when, during a
storm, be had lost his way, or In Other
words had got ''turned round,n and
while trying to get back on the right
trial he met the animal coming around
a little butte or hill. 1t was about tc
spring upon him when he fired and shot
the monster directly through the lef,
eye. Canton who was OF course much
alarmed slid or rather rolled down ar

HER MAJEsTx's OPERA.--As the box
sheet will be open this morning for the
sale of tickets for the coming opera, 1t
is meet that our people should be up
and doing in selecting their seats. 1t
must be borne in mind that the prices
charged are not out of proportion to
the cost Of the entertainment. Etelka
Gerster alone gets 81, 200 per night, and
there are n hundred people in the
company besides the great prima donna
to pay; so that it is plain that Maple
son will make but little, IL anything, by
his visit to Cheyenne. In Chicago,
during the recent opera season by this
same company, the choice seats aver
aged in price from four to eight dollars
each.
1t is to be hoped that our people will
sustain the enterprise that brings this
big company to Cheyenne, because it is
only by ~patronizing it that the manage
ment can be encouraged to obtain other
great attractions in the future. 1t Is for
the amusement-loving people to say
whether the high standard sought for
shall be maintained.
But then it is proverbial that our
people know a good thing and they
never go back on it. Never have they
been appealed to in vain, and, we doubt
not, when the curtain goes up for the
coming opera, it will disclose to the
company n Of the finest audiences for
culture, beauty and fashion, that ever
assembled together in a city of even ten
times the size of Cheyenne.
