BADLY CRUSHED.
a Third Victim Buried In a sewer
Cave In.

William Dent was seriously, if not
fatally, injured by the caving in of the
sewer embankments on which he was
working in front of the School House
yesterday morning.
Dent, who is foreman of the gang en-
ployed by Mr.. William Swan, was en-
gagged in assisting the men to construct a
branch sewer from the main to the School
House Suddenly there was a slide and
the sewer walls fell in almost completely
covering him.
His companions Immediately COM
menced to dig him out, but he was so badly
injured that he was almost unable to help
himself. He was conveyed to his house
and DIR. Marston summoned. His in
%juries proved to be of a very serious char
acter. His collar bone was broken, and,
in addition to his body being badly
bruised, he is injured internally. last
evening Dent was suffering intensely and
was quite delerious. His injuries are of a
very serious character and may result
fatally.
Dent is n married man with a family
and resides across the railroad track near
the Montana House. He is the third man
who has been injured in a similar manner,
and at present there is one confined at the
hospital on account of his injuries. Some
thing should be done to make this work
Of a less DANGEROUS character.

To the Editor OF II LRADKR.
PINE BLUFFS, Wyo., September 30
In your paper of Saturday last l see an
article headed Cutting High Jinks.
Some great capers Of cowboys at Pine
Bluffs, etc" 1t is an article rejecting
severely on that class of people known as
cowboys. and inasmuch asI have had con
siderable experience in dealing with men
employed in the cattle interest in this part
of Wyoming, l hope you will permit me
just to say a few words.
Regarding the shooting of a horse,
there was one shot here, and the mar who
shot the animal offered to pay for it.
There were two females here Of doubtful
repute, and considering the limited ac-
commodations of the station platform.
they were treated asrespectfully as women
of their kind could be treated in Chey-
enne, the boys buying several bottles of
beer and taking it over to them.
The most surprising statement of all is
telling a story of how the cowboys shoot,
and hal lin some instances individuals
have been known to have a portion of
their pants legs shot through by eccen-
tricity in aiming" Now it is very strange
this is the first l have heard Of anything
Of the kind. l have a large amount of
dealing with the boys, and certainly l
ought to know something about them.
There should be a large allowance made
for the cowboys. For weeks and weeks
they are camped on the wild p%rairies,
looking after cattle most Of the time.
They are engaged in the most important
industry of our Territory, and it is no
more than natural that young men, as
most of them are, should be expected to
enjoy themselves when they come to a sta
ton like this.
In conclusion l will say that take the
cowboys as a body of men, l have found
as honorable and straightforward in their
dealings as any body of men l ever met.

Why a DusRy DamseI Dismissed |
sutton.

Josie Onhouse, a brunette of the pro-
nounced order. got on the war-path on
Monday night in the sin-tainted section
of the city. A young man by the name
of Phillips, whose complexion displayed
an intimate acquaintance with the suns
rays, was loaing too Unfortunately
around the mansion of the dusky Josie,
and she wanted that sort of business to
stop. Phillips was not inclined to leave,
and the sable Amazon began dis
charging a revolver rather p~romiscuously,
but it is doubtful whether she intended to
start u lead mine in Mr.. Phillips carcass.
One of the officers arrived on the scene
and Josie stated very em~phatically that
she wanted no one arrested, but desired
Phillips to move into another neighbor-
hood and keep away from her door-yard.
Josie was arrested and paid her fine yes
terday morning for discharging firearms
in the city limits. Phillips left for Denver
yesterday morning and is not at all anx-
ious to cultivate an acquaintance with
powder and lead.

The Political Experience of An Aspiring
Young Man.


1t is rather a serio-comic story which is
going the rounds just now, serious to the
young man and ludricous to those who are
not interested in the matter financially.
This is the recital told to a LEADER re-
porter by one who claimed to know all
about the affair.
He was young, quite gifted, as the
average hum drum citizen goes, and had
a fair amount of this worlds goods. But
with all his accomplishments he had a
weakness. He abhored the quietude of
civil life and eleaved manfully to the
stirring events of the political arena. The
campaign was approaching, and, like
Jobs war horse, he shifted the battle
afar off. Quietly, but theoretically, he
commenced to lay the political pipe and
fix his eagle eye on one of the county
Offices.
There was a great difficulty in the way.
He was no orator and could not deliver
the usual campaign Grafton, viz: The
congugation of the verb have in all its
moods and lenses in the first person sin
gular. The working man had sprung a
mine by holding amass meeting and open
ing the campaign ere the nominations
were made.
At this critical juncture a stranger ar
rives on the scene. Who he was none
knew, but he was a stump speaker from
wayback. He could tear a passion into
t%atters, and make his audience feel as
happy as u man when his mother-in-law
goes avisiting, or as uncomfortable as
the same masculine representative in a
new pair of shoes. He loved the young
man, all political speakers love strongly,
but he could not speak for fame when
bread and whisky were SO dear. In his
present financial condition 81. so would
be the amount necessary to wake the fires
of his imagination. The offer was ac-
cepted and the money paid and the two
attended the meeting. The orators spoke
their little pieces, but the modern Demos
themes said not a word. The meeting a
last adjourned, and he sadly charged the
50. SO to the campaign profit and loss
fund. He is still in the field and is
liable to remain there, but no more paid
o%rations for him.

From the Boomerang.
Since the completion of the Soda Lakes
branch of the Union Pacific, the lumber
trade of Laramie has been materially in
creased, and is daily growing larger.
The saving made by railway shipment,
ever for the short distance this road ex-
tends, has enabled our local dealers to go
into the Cheyenne market and compete
with Denver in the matter of lumber and
building material. And now another
market is about to open. Rawlins,
which has heretofore bought almost all
its lumber in Idaho, is seeking rates in
this market as a better purchasing point
than any other point within her reach.
