ARTISTIC EMBROIDERY.
Beautiful Designs In the Famous Ken
sIngton Needle Work.

The most popular form Of art decora-
ton just now is Kensington embroidery
and crewel work, and those who purchase
the work of a skillful artist or master the
art themselves, have a means of house
hold decoration which is at the same time
very artistic and interesting. In this city
the real Kensington embroidery, as
taught in the South Kensington school in
England, is worked and taught by Miss
Slime, of All Sixteenth street, where in
structions are given in the work, and
where she has a number of very beautiful
articles Of the Kensington embroidery and
crewel work for sale.
Miss Slime is from Philadelphia, Pa,
where the Kensington work is very popu-
lar, and where one of the best schools in
this country is in operation, patronized by
many of the most prominent people inter
ested in decorative art. The stamping as
done by most methods rubs off easily;
that done by Miss Slime is indelible and
will not rub off under any circumstances.
Her patterns. materials, crewels and silks
are of the most tasteful selection and she
has a most complete assortment of each.
During the past two months quite a num-
Der of prominent people have taken les
sons, the art being mastered by most
people in six lessons.
A reporter of The LEADER was shown
a number of very beautiful articles ofthis
work yesterday. Among them was n
handsome screen with a background of
delicate green sateen, with a design of rich
Cherokee roses. Rich looking articles
were a chair back of Pongee silk, with
deliberately worked border; a table scarf of
green sateen with a design of trailing
arbutus at one end and at the other an
orange design done in Queen Anne style
of darning; a party bag of pongee lined
with Surah silk, with wild flower designs,
and a large variety of sachet bags, pongee
fancy aprons and tides, sofa pillows, etc.
all of which were most artistically and
beautifully worked, the designs being al
most exact copies from nature. While
these goods are desirable at all times, they
are particularly so at this season and those
desiring to make selections for the Holt
days, should pay Miss Stine's studio a
visit

FROZEN TO DEATH.
The a Fate That Befela Fort Laramie
soldier.

Special Dispatch to The Leader.
FoRr LARAMIE, Wyo., December 20.
james Annadel, a soldier of Company
H. 7th Infantry, was found dead to-day
about three miles from this Post. He
and a soldier named Jensen left the Post
Tuesday morning, the 10th instant, to
hunt. When on their return late in the
evening they became separated. Jensen
reached the Post in safety, but as Anna
del was still missing the next morning,
it was feared that he had become lost and
a party was sent to search for him. The
search has been continued every day
since with the result as above stated.
He was found lying on the prairie about
two hundred yards from the road, be-
tween the Post and Weber ranch. There
appears to be no doubt that he lost his
way and after wandering about until ex-
hausted, froze TO death. No inquest will
be held. He will be buried on Monday
with the usual military ceremony.

Bad weather did not prevent the open
ing of the Cheyenne Skating Rink, corner
OF Eighteenth and O'Neil streets, last
evening, from being a grand success. The
floor was crowded and the only drawback
was the failure of all the skates to arrive,
only fifty pairs having come to hand. One
pleasant feature was the lack of noise
from the skates gliding over the floor.
The rink will be opened to the public
again at 10 O'Clock tomorrow morning.
