TAKE ME soMEwHERE ELSE,
How a Drunken Man Unexpectedly
Landed in the C~alaboose.

One of the most laughable things that
has occurred in Cheyenne for some years
happened on Sixteenth street yesterday
morning. Some fellow who was most
o~utrageously drunk, yet able to waddle
around, wanted somebody to show him
where he could get another drink. He
was too drunk to read signs, and writing
was altogether out of the question with
him. Ed kapp, to whom he applied
first, wrote on a large sheet of paper the
words, Take mi somewhere else" and
giving it to him sent him down to Rey-
nold's barber shop, where he exhibited
his credentials. 1t was a small favor to
grant, but Doc needed the request and
took him down to the corner where he
pointed out to him the next victim. He
in turn took him to somebody else, and so
they kept passing and sending the poor
fellow around from one saloon and shop to
another to the immense amusement of all
who witnessed the fun. At last the
fellow, who for a long time took this
passing around business to be a great
favor shown him, became profoundly dis
gusted. He leaned up against a post and
muttered to himself, ''Damfno how this
is" Just then Policeman Sullivan came
along, and the fellow, making a mreh or
two into the middle of the sidewalk,
showed his paper to the officer. That
settled IL with him The reouest s"raka

Work on the laying of mains for the
new gas company is being pushed forward
rapidly. About twenty-five men are en-
ployed daily, and the pipes are laid for
the distance of a block every day. At
present, pipes have been laid on Eigh-
teenth, Nineteenth, House and Ferguson
streets, and the prediction that the gas
will be in the houses ready to use this Fall
Is likely to be verified.

The Terrebonne Times and the
New Iberia Sugar Boaol are after
the judges OF their respective dis
tricts With a sharp stick. w
we're always impressed with the
idea that Judge Goode of Terre.
bonnie was all that could be ex.
pected of an officer. The Times
complains that "the neglect to Gu.
force the law is the fruitful source
OF crime, and no where is this bet.
ter examrlifed than in the parish
of Terrebonne where case after
case can be cited ia which the Jury
have done their duty, brought in
verdicts Of guilty, and the punish
ments inflicted has been so mani
testify inadequate as to make it a
common saying among jurors that
at makes no difference what YER
dict we render a few days in the
parish Jail is all the punishment
that will be inflicted" Any think
ing man can see that this, not only
has a tendency to destroy all res.
pect and fear Of law, but the integ.
rity Of our juries who see that
they are only used to carry out
the forms of law and that their
verdict has very little influence
upon those upon whom rests the
lnai judgment In the matter.
There are only two ways of cor.
recting this evil which is fast sap
ping the life blood of society.
The one proposed by those who
would take the law in their own
hands and punish crime>by crime,
and the other the placing Of a
man in the position Of Judge Of
this District who u1N enforce the
law at all hazards irrespective of
politics, social position, race, color
Or previous condition. If the PEG.
pie refuse the last they will surely
see the first adopted BY those with
whom the rights Of citizenship and
the protection of their lives and
property is paramount to all else.
