Actors, but not RIDERS.

The entire Wallack company gave a
matinee on Saturday afternoon not down
on the bills. The ladies of the party it
seems, before leaving New York, had
handsome riding habits especially made,
with which they expected to mount the
notorious broncho of the mountains and
dash full speed across the open prairies.
But alas Bozeman horses they found to
require some equestrian skill, and were
not entirely manageable by riding habits
alone. After Hopping from the pummel
to cropper like a shuttle-cock in full
motion upon the backs of the most met
tlesome riding horses to be procured In
Bozeman, watched by our amused and
CRITICAL citizens, they concluded that
walking was pretty good. Fortunately
none were injured The comedian made
an A Mr.. Tubbs. but as rider he is
not success. Failing by the use of the
reins to check his prancing steed he
chung to the saddle and Justify yelled
for help. His horse ran into Mrs.
Frazier's fence, and the rider quickly
dismounted, more dead than alive. Re-
ference to his horsemanship during the
play on Saturday night, caused the large
audience to rise and rend the air with
deafening shouts. This company has
many admirers in Bozeman, and when
they visit us again, soberer steeds will
be provided for them.

The CheVennes Of Custer

Much excitement exists in Custer
county over the Northern Cheyennes
who have their reservation on the Rose
bud, are assuming hostile attitude.
These Indians are in terlopers in that
country, for they belong to the Pine Ridge
Agency in Dakota. The cattle men have
protested against their presence in that
country and it is probably some en-
croachment upon their reservation that
has caused their anger. There are only
one hundred bucks in the entire camp.
The report that five cowboys were
killed by Cheyennesis unfounded. Their
agent retired from Rosebud to Fort Gus
ter and telegraphed the department
headquarters for assistance, saying that
his life was threatened, whereupon
Major Logan of the 9Th Infantry, was
ordered to the agency to investigate. He
proceeded from Fort Keogh with a small
detachment. He was acting agent for
these Cheyennes until short time ago,
and is liked by them.

Prosperity In Montana.

c. A. Broadwater, of Helena, is stop
ping at the Ryan. He is one of the
prominent business men of Montana,
and an influential factor in politics in
that territory. Asked about the poIiti-
cal situation in Montana, however, he
declined to express an opinion or make
single statement, declaring that he had
nothing of value to impart to the public
in regard to such subject. He was
considerably more interested in the de-
velopment of Montana's industries. TIL e
stock and mining interests of the terri
tory, he says, are in most prosperous
condition, and the output of the mines
for 1886 will certainly exceed $22,OOO,-
600. He asserts that Montana is the
best mining country in the world

The race between VIM. Flannery's
horse and either one of the two, VIM.
Awards Gallatin Boy and Drennen's
Side-Cut, is off indefinitely. In response
to Mr.. Flannery's challenge, issued in
last weeks CHRONICLE, Ed. Lafferty and
his hackers met Mr. Flannery and both
parties rut up the $3.50 This was taken
down soon after, however, by reason Of
Mr.. Flannery's inability to secure suit
able trainer until after the Helena races,
date that Mr. Laferty cannot accept,
by reason of his expected absence in the
east. So the matter stands at present,
and those who looked anxiously forward
to the prompt meeting of the runners
are disappointed.
Regarding the above Mr.. Flannery
made statement 10 the CHRONICLE as
follows There being no suitable
trainers here to put horse in condition
to run race the only way could do
under the circumstances was to send my
horse to Helena. | wrote to Hundley &
Preuitt of that place, who are training
three horses of their own for the Helena
meeting, requesting them to take my
horse and put him in condition. They
replied that they had but one rider, and
riders were scarce at Helena, but if
would send them boy to exercise they
would take him. With these arrange
ments-when put his horse in the
hands of trainer who is training horses
for the Helena race-I knew he could
not get that trainer and my rider to
leave his horses at Helena Immediately
before the Helena meeting and come to
Bozeman to run match race. So the
only time that could agree to run the
race was three days after the close of the
Helena meeting or later, or as it was
known that Laferty desired to take
horses to the Helena races, proposed
to run him at Helena the week before
that meeting, but would prefer to run
at Bozeman. To this or any such ar
rangement Lafferty would not agree. 1
would not agree to anything that would
not give me show to make what ar
rangements could to put my horse in
condition and have him ridden in reli-
able way Since then the friends of my
horse have gone about making other ar
rangements to train him. and have "ban-
tered" the other side to run them their
way for enough money to make it an
object to run, without any takers

Sale OF Grazing Lands.

The Northern Pacific land department
ON Thursday of last week sold $500
acres of grazing lands to Alfred Meyers
& Bro. Of Livingston. The land is loca-
ted in the Shields river district, about
thirty miles northeast from Bozeman.
The Messrs. Meyers have been raising
cattle in this vicinity for the past nine
teen years, and now have over 5000 head
ON their range. The land department
reports very active inquiry from stock
men for grazing lands in Montana There
seems to be general disposition among
stockmen to become, so far as possible,
owners of their ranges, so that they may
properly protect the grass and preserve
the ranges from other stockmen.

The Enterprise is authority for the
following: at is believed that Jack
Stevenson, the killer of Frank Kannis,
is cached about the Lower Geyser Basin
In the Bark. 1t is generally understood
that he was seen and spoken with in
that vicinity not many days ago. A
force OF Toadmakers, many of whom are
his acquaintance and some his friends,
are at work near there and they are
probably supporting him in conceal
ment. A squad of Montana, Wyoming
and United States officers are guarding
and patroling the country and it is
deemed improbable that he can escape.

The Philadelphia Press throws a food
of light upon the Anderson romance, now
going the rounds of the press, by the
following
''The Marchioness of Salisbury maid
en- name forms the excuse for another
romance of an American nobleman, re-
produced yesterday by our esteemed CO
temporary, the New York World. The
story mentions that the wife of the
English Premier twas the daughter Of
the late Sir Edward H. Anderson and
continues: "On her side of the house
there is a romance with its principal
notifications extending deep into United
States soil. Her brother, the present
Lord Anderson, is the owner Of rich
estates, but childless. When he dies his
heir and stIscessor will be found in the
person Of William w. Anderson, now
editor and proprietor of the Bozeman,
Mont, Ayant Courior." Unfortunately
for the American peerage, Lady Sails
bury's father was only a knight, and
therefore his title did not descend to his
posterity. 80 it is difficult to conceive
who cher brother, the present Lord
Aldersonu is. There is another living
knight of the name of Alderson--Sir
James. well known scientist and one
of the queens physicians but he is only
@ cousin of Lady Salisbury, and also
has neither title nor any particularly
s'rich estates to leave behind him. This
is little hard on the esteemed editor Of
the Bozeman Ayant Courier; but it is
true nevertheless"
