a White Elephant Holiday.

Big elephants and small elephants, short
elephants and long elephants; have all had
a great part to play in the circus world but
w. w. Cole has come to the front with a
sacred white elephant, or more properly
speaking a white-face elephant, for such
is the description of the sacred Burmese
beast that Cole imported to this country
at an expense of 500, 900, all told. But
a single elephant, be it white, blue or
or black, cuts a very small figure in Coles
colossal shows, which contain almost
everything hat has an existence or that
curious humanity cares to see. The cir
Gus is so large that it takes three rings
and an elevated stage to give all the per
formers Il chance to display their various
acts and personal accomplishments.
The only fault to be found with
this truly show is that it is too
big. Forty-hvc acts are given at every
performance. 1t combines a Circus, Ne
nagerie, Theatre, Roller Skating Rink.
Gallery Of Wax Statuary and a dozen
other complete exhibitions-all in one.
Performances are given in the menagerie
tents-of which there are two-as well as
IN the circus rings. \ troupe of Bedouin
Arabs is a principal feature of the great
combination; a Human Fly, a lady cell
ing walker, aerial bicyclists, roller skaters,
Roman gladiators, rival riders, wrcstlers,
gymnasts, leapers and II hundred other

CHENENNE'S OPPORTUNITY.
Let Us Wake 4, and Secure the Mail
Route to Buffalo.

TGe people of Buffalo are much excited.
m justly So, too. over the fact that their
mail facilities are almost worthless for
any practical purpose, from the fact that
the road through to Rock Greek, over
which their mail il brought, or rather is
supposed to be brought, is almost con-
stantly Jlockadcd with snow or rendered
impossible from floods, mud and other
causes. What is true of this road at
present has been true of it for months
past. The following is what the Buffalo
Echo says of the situation:
The mails arrived on Thursday morn
ing at ! o'clock Il. M, that were due in
Buffalo on Saturday at 6 o'clock p. m.
The La Bonte canyon is said to be i'm
passable; if so, the sooner the route is
changed the better. The roads to Chey-
enne, Rawlins and Medicine Bow can be
Travelled ut any time of the year, we are
informed, and the people of this com
munity should see to it that the attention
of the department is called to the matter.
We are supposed to have a daily mail,
and as there is no reason why we should
not have one with proper management,
the Echo proposes to keep the ball rolling
until somebody is walked up.
1t will be seen by the foregoing that the
people of Buffalo are walked up on this
subject and propose to wake somebody
else up. There can be no question that
the mail route to that point ought to be
changed and that too very soon. Raw
Inns, Laramie City and perhaps other
points west, will Cndeavor to secure this
mail route to Buffalo and Sheridan, and
will spare NJ pains to secure it. What
ought to be done here in Cheyenne is to
wake up also and make 4 move in the di-
rection of securing this route. 1t can be
done and that, too, without much trouble
if the people will only take hold of it
rightly. There ought to be no delay in
so doing, for delays are dangerous, Raw
Inns and Laramie City will both have pc
titions circulated, and will apply
to the government at once in order
to secure this mail service.
1t would require but little argument to
convince the Postmaster General, at
Washington, that, Cheyenne is the
proper point from which the mail for
Buffalo and other points north of there
should start. There is a good mail route
to Fetterman, and from that point to
Buffalo, the route would lie through a
comparatively open country, while from
Fetterman to Rawlins, or Laramie City,
the road must necessarily pass through an
almost impossible range of foothills or
low mountains aud must as a natural con-
sequence be as bad if not Il worse route
than the present one, of which so much
complaint is made. A mere g%lancea at the
map will reveal this fact. Let the citizens
move in this matter at once.

AN ALTERCATIoN.
Messrs. VI. A. Arnold and Milton TaN-
Tor Have a misunderstanding.

An alteration occurred yesterday fore
noon between Mr.. NJ. A. Arnold and Mr..
Milton Taylor, growing out of matters
connected with the moving Of the old
building which was recently burned to
lots belonging to Mr.. Arnold in the
vicinity of the Wyoming block, owned in
part by Mr.. Taylor. There was consider
able objection on the part of MIR. Taylor
and Others who reside in that neighbor-
hood to the moving OF the now defunct
building to this locality. The protection
of the law was invoked by the people in
the locality and several prosecutions were
brought against Mr.. Arnold for what was
contended to be Il violation of the fire
ordinance. These suits were finally COM
promised or withdrawn and Arnold pro-
ceeded in the work of fixing up the
building, but in the meantime it caught
fire and burned down. Mr.. Arnold, it
seems, has had suspicious that it was set
on fire and has had, it is said, some rea-
son which led him to arrive at this CON
clusion.
Meeting Mr.. Taylor yesterday forenoon
near the ruins of the old building the two
engaged in some discussion in regard to
the structure and as to how it came to
get on fire, and it seems that some
remarks by Arnold were construed
by Taylor to amount to an i%nsinuation
that h~e(Taylor) might know something as
to how it came to take fire. Thereupon,
from words the matter at once resulted in
blows. As to the outcome of the affair
it will be arbitrated in the city courts, as
a complaint has already been made be-
fore Judge Fisher. Another thing is
equally certain, nobody got hurt very badly
if at all, and Mr.. Arnold stated himself
last evening that there was no fight"
The LEADER reporter was requested by
Mr.. Arnold to make no mention of the
affair at least until after the matter had
been heard in the court, but as the sub
ject was on yesterday talked about and
rehashed from one end of the city to the
other, it is only a favor TO both parties to
publish a correct and impartial account of
the affair, for the old saying that truth
harms nobody is especially adapted to
this case.

FOUND DEAD.
The Body of a Maj Discovered In u
Canyon Near Iron Mountain.

Yesterday afternoon a Mr.. Davidson,
who resides about sixty miles from and
some distance out beyond Iron mountain,
arrived in Cheyenne, having come here to
notify Coroner Chafin that the body of a
mar has been found in an old cabin in
Plumbago canyon, not far from the
mountain alluded to. The body was
found three days ago but Mr.. Davidson
did not know whose body it was nor what
the mans name was when alive. He
was found in an old cabin in the canyon
and had apparently been dead for at least
several weeks and it may be for months.
1t appears that the cabin is an old aban-
doned affair in which no one has lived for
a long time. Outside of the cabin was
found an old wagon but no horses were
there nor to be found anywhere in that
vicinity. They must have been unhitched
when the wagon was left there and have
gone somewhere, probably sharing the
fate Of him who was once their owner
and master. The supposition is that this
man became lost during some of the ter
rible storms of the past winter and acct
IDENTITY run on to this cabin where he I'M
dertook to find shelter in what eventually
proved to be his tomb. He doubtless was
benumbed and bewildered when he
reached this spot but not so far gone but
that he had strength enough left to un-
hitch his horses. This done he probably
sought shelter in the cabin and exhausted
and overcome he must have fallen asleep,
from which he was destined never to
waken. 1t may be that there is some
foul play connected with his death but
probably not. Coroner Chaffin will prob
ably start to-day for Plumbago canyon for
the purpose of investigating the matter.

A slight change in the makeup of The
LEADER will be noticeable this morning
Hereafter a portion of the local news of
each issue will be found upon the fourth
page of the paper. The object of this
change is two-fold. In the first, it is the
desire to provide all the space possible for
full and complete reports of local occur
rences, in the belief hat a paper should
be a good home paper at least, if nothing
else is attempted, and in the second place
to crafty the wish of advertisers. who are
crowding the columns, by making the pa
per as generally interesting as possible so
that each particular page may be as val
liable as the other for their purposes. 1t
is believed that this change will accom-,
plish the result sought for by the man
agement.
