TT was stated several times in the
papers, said II. j. Edwards, of Middle
Grow creek, last evening" that the
Happy Jack road had been opened to
the public. Well, it hasn't been all the
same"
MI. Edwards was considerably worked
up over the matter.
Il came in to-day, and, asi it happened,
some one had cut down the wire fences
that blocked the road so 1 could come
straight to town. Three different times |
have come as far as Schalk's, which
is only four miles from the city, and been
forced to turn back on account of the wire
fences strung across the road. These
three times I've had to go four miles out
Of my road in order to reach Cheyenne
The Happy Jack road has been an i'm
mense convenience for thirty years, and
when it's closed up with wire fences it
puts the people living west and northwest
of the city to immense inconvenience.
Something ought to be done about the
matter at once as the road is much

NOT TRUE no NArURE.
A Funny Mar Portrays Himself as He
Really is.

From Peck's Sun.
Picture-makers have a way of marking
all the defects out of a picture and making
the most ordinary man look very passable
in a picture. We know that by exper-
fence, having palmed off thousands of
real irst-class photographs that would de-
ceive any person who had never seen US.
In these pictures our blind eye looks
just as well as the other, u hair lD is
made TO look sweet ard pouting, and the
scar on the nose, where an army cavalry
horse bit off a piece, and where AN army
doctor grated in a piece of chicken flesh,
on which feathers have grown ever since,
does not show at all.
The scar in our neck, made by a mimic
bullet, and which in the original looks
like the opeding of a mine shaft, is made
in the picture to look like a dimple. To
look at the picture you wouldn't know
that we had lost all our teeth except one,
which is filed with sheet lead, and though
our eye-winkers have been singed off by
an explosion of can ofpowder, the artist
has made new eye-winkers.
This is a splendid crop of hair on that
picture of ours, though if any person will
find four hairs on the head Of the original
he can have them. The pictures have a
side view, so the left ear. which was cut
off years ago by falling over a.scythe in a
hay field, does not show the moody appear
ance that the side of the original head
presents to our friends.

OVER AT LAST.
The Court takes the Brown Case Under
Amusement.


The testimony in the Brown disbar-
ment case closed yesterday morning. Con-
~stantine P. Arnold arrive from Laramie
and was sworn in behalf of the defendant.
He corroberated the testimony of Judge
Blake in reference to the conversation be-
tween Brown and Pease in the formers
office at Laramie.
Mr.. Pease was recalled by the prosecu-
ton but his evidence was to the same eff
feet as that given by him yesterday. The
case was then submitted to the court,
who reserved their decision and adjourned
until November next.
The general impression seems to be
that the court will fail to disbar Mr..
Brown, as the evidence is contradictory
and the balance of proof is in his favor.
