Never before in the history Of Wheeling
Park was there such galaxy Of youth and
cauty as that which assembled there last
thursday evening to attend the select social
nd "soiree dansante" given by Messrs.
Nichols and McHenry in honor of their
Young friends. TO say that the affair was
a grand success is but mildly expressing it.
The gentlemen looked their best-and
there were lots of them there
and the ladies-well, the writer must
heartily confess that he never beheld such
bouquet of feminine loneliness as that which
dazzled his eyes on last Thursday evening.
They were all lovely and inexpressibly so.

East Mt. Wood; Minnie and Emma
Seibert, Lizzie Flint, Annie. and Sophia
Dimmie, Pleasant Valley; Fannie and En-
ma Plankey, Salie and Belle Downey, Elm
Grove; Minnie Conant Mira WelShauch,

Pleasant Valley; J. C. Wells, Weilsbufg;
John Creighton, Pittsburg; Albert and
Willard Mccullough, Short Creek; Pannell
aud Harry Garden, GIenn's Run, and a host
Of ladies and gentlemen from Wheeling too
numerous to euumerate.

SAN Francisco, April 9.-The court
room during the trial of the Sharon di-
vorce case to-day was the scene of great
commotion. Mrs. Shawhan, a witness
for the defense, was on the stand. Judge
Tyler, attorney for Miss Hill, was sub
jecting her to a severe cross-examination.
He said he proposed to show that witness
had dIned in disreputable places and Wis
tied designation houses with strange men.
Mrs. Shawhan manifested intense ex-
element and hurriedly put her hand in
her pocket as if for a revolver, but was
checked by the counsel for the defense,
who implored her to keep cool. During
the excitement which prevailed Nc
Cune Shawhan, a man of about twenty
two years of age and a son of the wit
ness, approached Judge Tyler but was
stopped by the %latter's son, who threat
ened to shoot him down if he attempted
to draw a pistol. Judge Sullivan ordered
the witness and her son removed from
the court and Immediately after declared
a recess. AT the opening of the afternoon
session the judge refused to hear further
testimony in the case until assured no one
in the court room was armed, and re-
quired a certificate from the policeman at
the entrance door to that effect.

NEW York, April 9.-Late this evening
a rumor got abroad that James McHenry,
the railroad magnate, was arrested on
board the Servia when about to sail for
England. A prominent official of the
Erie road says the arrest was actually
made by the United States marshal after
McHenry went on board the vessel, in
order to prevent his departure before pay
ing judgment for over two million dol
lars secured in favor of that road four or
five gears ago and that McHenry turned
over to his attorneys the road stocks,
valued at one million, eight hundred
thousand and promised to pay the re-
mainder within two years, w%heieupon the
arrest was vacated and he was allowed to
sail. HcHenry's lawyer, on the other
hand, says that he was not arrested and
that the matter of settlement was ami
cably arranged before he went on board
the vessel.

SHOT AND KILLED.
The Sad Fate of a Cheyenne Citizens
s9gs Youngest Brother.

Mr.. w. r. Stahl of this city yesterday
received a telegram from Deadwood con
veying the information that his youngest
brother, Lewis, had been shot and killed
at Spearish, near that place, OIL Tuesday.
No particulars concerning the sad affair
were given in the telegram. Mr.. Stall
sent two kilograms to Deadwood during
the course of the day for further informa-
ton, but failed to receive a response to
either. 1t was consequently hoped that
there might be some mistake in regard to
the affair, or at least that the accident
was of a trifing character. The news,
however, is probably true, for a brief as
sociated press dispatch received at the
LEADER office last night is c~onfrmatory
of it. The telegram is as follows:
DEADwooD, d. T., April 9,rJack
Morris shot and killed Lewis Stall last
night at Spearfsh, Dakota. Particulars
have not yet been received.
No further particulars concerning the
sad affair could be obtained last night,
The deceased was also a brother of Lieu

ON THE ROUND UP.
A Texas Detective Who is Making
Things Lively For Strangers.

Two or three days ago a gentleman from
Texas arrived in Cheyenne on the trail of
a gang of men said to be charged with
robbing the stages, horse stealing etc, and
has since been looking after his men. He
had good reason undoubtedly to suppose
that they had come to Cheyenne, but
what seems somewhat unusual in such
cases he seems unable to identify his vic
Tins. Day before yesterday two parties
were arrested as being the culprits but
after an informal investigation it was as
certained to a certainty hat they were
not of the party he is seeking to find and
they were consequently discharged from
custody. The detective was then, of
course at sea but after taking another in
ventory of the city came to the conclusion
on yesterday that he had found his men
sure. There were four of them this time.
He discovered them at the Simmons
House and shortly after noon, assisted by
some of the local officers he proceeded to
that place where they were duly taken
into custody and marched to the court
house for the purpose of being incarcera-

Republican Riot.

ALBANY, N. Y, April 9.-The Re-
publican convention to elect two delegates
to the Chicago convention from this
congressional district assembled in
Slinginland to-day. Great interest was
taken in the meeting by outsiders owing
to the knowledge that the Draper and
Smythe factions were in numbers about
equal. The first conflict took place over
delegates from the Sixteenth ward. This
trouble settled, a ballot was taken for
president. The chair announced the re-
sult-George Fl. Fits, of Cohoes, "a;
VIM. H. Haskell, of Albany, 73. The
latter was supported by anti-admihistra-
ton men. The vote had hardly been an
nounced when a rush was made for the
platform and Immediately the officers and
reporters found themselves amidst a surg
ing, fighting and busting, pulling and
yelling mob. The supporters of Haskell
gained the platform and lifting the chair
man and secretary, threw them bodily
from the platform.
Haskell was Immediately installed as
chairman, and formed a Gordon around
him which Fits adherents could not
break. Hand to hand encounters were
constant, and yells and cheers unceasing.
Haskell was maintained in his position
long enough to entertain and put the mo-
ton for a recess. The opposing faction,
Draperites, now made desperate and sue
cessful charge upon the platform, bearing
Fits on it. Fits began the role of chair,
man, being upheld by a strong body
guard. The yelling and cheering was
most vociferous and constant. Fits then
named delegates to Chicago, declared
them elected, and adjourned the conven-
ton. Anti-administration men or Smyth-
ties now resumed possession, named dele
gates to Chicago, declared them elected,
and likewise adjourned.
