That Lincoln County Exhibit

Oar readers need not think this is a
subject We are going to let rest. We ex-
rect to present it to them time and time
again until some action is taken to prop
Crly place the resources of Lincoln cbuu-
t. before the Great Exposition at New
Orleans next winter, or until We are pro
fuundly convinced that such thing as
arousing any public spirit on the subject
is utterly hopeless.
IN the present depressed condition of
our County finances, it can hardly he ex
pcc;ed that the Board of Supervisors will
make an appropriation from the County
treasury, though we believe n few hun
drrds OF the County's money could not be
more wisely spent, but sOmething-much,
indccd-can he done by cooperation and
concentration of effort on the part of in
diyiduals. Other counties i'll more dis
tant parts Of the State and less favored in
resources and natural advantages are
making preparations to have their own
exhibits, and shall we, who are at the
very gates of the grandcst Worlds Fair
the world shall have ever seen, sit supine-
y down and let the opportunity pass
without an effort God helps those who
help themselves is Il tcrsc and truthful
aphorisn, and only by making an effort
can we realize any OF tie many advanta-
yes now within our reach.
Let meeting be called and the matter
discussed. What say Capt. Hoskins, DIR.
johnson, Messrs. Mcnelas and other of
our leading citizens?

Rev. II. F. johnson, President of Whit
worth College at Brookhaven, Miss, has
agreed that the young ladies of that IA
nous institution-which by the way can
claim about three hundred students
shall prepare i'll wax an exhibit of all of
the fruits of Mississippi for place in our
State Department at tile New Orleans
Exposition. This will be a lovely feature
in the exhibit, and as interesting in dem
onstrating the genius and capacity of our
Mississippi girls, as in displaying to the
world our orchard and garden wealth.
Of course all our fruits and vegetables
VIII be shown in the Horticultural De
partment, but as they cannot all he in
season at the same time, and many of
them can only be shown i'll alcohol, this
grand wax presentation will be of great
interest to all

The parsonage alluded to was a pretty
little child Of about FIVE years of age, with
dancing black eyes and dark brown hair.
She was neatly but plainly dressed, and
chung to the conductors hand in a conf
dent manner.
The reporter gazed at the child for q
moment and then looked at the conductor
who saw hat he was mystifed by the re-
spouse, and resumed:
The little one is from Poughkeepsie,

For some time the T. E. Warren Mer-
camille company have gradually been en-
gagged in the by no means small under
taking of removing their large stock Of
goods from their various stores throughout
the city to the mammoth new building
which ornaments and improves the vicin-
ity of Sixteenth and Hill streets. Though
by no means completed the Emporium
now gives evidence of what a convenient
and beautiful place of business it will be
in the near future. While the sound of a
hundred hammers may be heard Mt pres
ent within its walls, yet there is room and
opportunity for the inspection and pur-
chase of some of the most elegant goods
imaginable, One of the articles attracting
attention for its oddly Just now, is a par
lor set consisting of sofa and chairs, the
backs of which are formed by a skillful
and artistic arrangement Of beautifully
large horns the upholstering and finish
ing being of the finest material it makes
as handsome 4 set as one could wish for.
Near by is a lot of leather covered chairs
and lounges the sight of which suggests
solid comfort and ease. Some oddities are
gilt chairs with silk plush finish, just the
article which a connoisseur in fine furni-
ture likes to have in the parlor or drawing
room. And so we could go on indefi-
nitely, and while a description of beauti-
full articles of household furniture may
please, a personal visit to the Emporium
will please still more and the visitor can
spend a most pleasant time looking at the
various articles of use for home decoration
and utility.
The offices of the firm still remain on
Fergeson street, but will probably be
moved in the course of a week.

A Card From Deputy sheriff smaIiey.


A Card From Deputy Sheriff smaIiey.
To the Editor OF The Leader.
CHEYENNE, September l9.-In your
paper Of yesterday you give an account of
a fight between E. S. Smith and a man
named McCarty, in front of the Tivoli
saloon, in which you stated in g%laring
headlines that they had a lively rough and
tumble set-to while a brother officer stands
near idly looking on. In the article you
name me as the officer that was idly look
ing on. You said that Smith claims
that Smalley during the entire struggle
stood on the opposite side of the street
aud failed to come to his assistance, more
than this, that he openly sympathized
with his opponent, etc
Now, | wish to say that every word of
this charge is absolutely false, l wal not
present when the fight was in progress,
was not on the opposite side of the street
at the time, l did not know anything
about the fight until it was all over.
Again, your article states that other po-
licemen say that Smalley's action was due
to a personal dislike of Smith, and speak
in forcible, ifnot very elegant language,
of the Deputy Sheriff failure to do his
sworn duty. l can find or hear Of no po-
liceman, except Pat Nolan, who has said
anything of the kind, and he was not
there. but according to his own statement
was sitting in front of Henry Harrington's
store at the time he heard Smiths wills
tie, but thought it was some of the small
boys. 1 wish to say further that | would
have gone to Smiths assistance, or any
other mans, whether | liked him or not,
and never, since l have been constable or
deputy sheriff, have | failed to suppress
any disturbance happening in my pres
ence nor failed to arrest anyone violating
the law when | was able to do 30.
B. II. SMALLEY.
