There is but little probability at
present that there will be much chanke
in the ruling that w have pursued SO
long here In Cheyenne of letting about
everything there is that can possibly
be piled up on the sidewalks remain
there 80 long as people can crawl under,
fly over or go around the obstruction
through the mud, perhaps, and yet
may it please the COURT" what has
become of the sidewalk ordinance on
this subject7 Probably it has been
lost, strayed or something of that sort.
1t certainly cannot have been stolen,
o after ten years since it has been OF
the ordinance books Of the city nc
attempt has ever been made to enforce
it, and nobody would want to steal 9
thing so utterly worthless as this ordi-
nance has always been.

to the matter from the aforesaid so to
speak ladies', the judge concluded that
Mr.. Butler had better go up and see
Doctor Sharpless for about ten days,
as in the opinion of the court that But
Ter had a slight attack of ''malicious
mischief" and a change of climate
and diet he thought would do the sick
gentleman some good.
Doctor Sharpless introduced the gen.
tleman to some other patients which
he has in the hospital, and finally ar
signed him a ward where he would
be quite comfortable.
In the meantime, however, it was
thought best to have the two ladies
visit Judge Lee also. They were ac-
cordingly invited to attend at his place
Of business, and the Judge, after hear
ing some testimony, concluded that
while probably they were all right them
selves, yet the house where they reside
was probably a trife indispo sed and it
would be a good plan, the judge
thought to have the two, 81 to speak
young ladies pay about SO apiece to be
used for the benefit of the house, being
strongly inclined to the opinion that
with proper treatment the house might
get we'll.
Why bless their souls, they said, that
would be a good idea, and thereupon
they proceeded to contribute at once
the required amount, after which Mr..
Lee told them they might go and If the
house showed the slightest symptom of
getting worse they would inform him
at once; otherwise he would have to
send some medical or judicial assist
ance around on his own motion.

very highly appreciated by the inmates
Of the aforesaid place, whereupon they

unpretty, and writing out a little invi-

Several little incidents of interest &C.
CURED during the closing hours of the
late legislative session which we had
not the space to mention in yesterday
mornings issue of the LEADER which
we will briefly mention.
In the house of representatives after
the work had all been done, or at least
all that could be done so far as that
branch of the legislature was con-
cerned there was all sorts Of lively
times and fun without stint. Finally,
however, it was thought best to have
a little singing and speech-making to
while away the time until the appro-
priation bill should have been placed in
the hands of the governor and his Gig
nature thereto affixed.
Judge Carey, who was present in the
legislative halls during the entire night
for the purpose of witnessing the clos
ing scene Of the session, was called
out and made a neat little speech to
the members and Others.
Then there were songs and hymns
sung In which the entire house Joined
Among others the hymn "What Hast
Thou Given to Me" was SUM with
much feeling. Then DR.. Chapman was
called out and made some very appro-
pirate remarks in a humorous vein, ie-
lating some amusing incidents, etc.
Then he proposed that those present
should unite in singing that old song
"Nellie Gray" and related something
Of the history Of the author, after
which all hands Joined in singing the
song. and when in the last verse the
words
'oh my darling Nellie Gray,
Up in heaven there they say,
They Will never tax her from me any
more,
lam coming. coming. coming, while the
angels clear the way.

CLOSING PRICES OF PHILADELPHIA STOCKS
R.sortsa by JOIN r. DAVIS Z o. II Wsl-n
THURSDAY, March 27-P. N.


An absence of confirmation of any of the reports
and rumors that yesterday influenced the stock
sueculation was a sort of boomerang In to-days
market Anticipations not having been realized
Yesterdays buyers were sellers at such prices as
could he obtained. The business l263755 sharesl
was 10000 shares less than yesterday. AT
the opening prices were steady to strong and IN
some instances higher figures were made but there
was lack of activity and feverishness that found
vent only in LATER decline in values. Erie was the
active stock of the day and furnished $4,000
shares toward the total operations; 1t opened
at 22LG22as. aud afterward, with nu-
merous fluctuations declined TO 2Oosa 2O4.
Union Pacific was second in point OF
transactions it sold mp Il TO 76l2 and declined to
75l.a75as. St. Paul stock was third, with trans
action in 81 900 shares and declined from sSSsSis
N s7as. The coal stocks were pressed for sale so
