Mrs. AIinie S. Isenberg died at her
home in Cheyenne yesterday afternoon at
4 o'clock. Three weeks ago Mrs. Isen-
berg was stricken down with mountain
fever, and despite the best medical treat
ment that could be obtained, grew worse
from day to day. On Sunday last it be-
came apparent that the end was near.
Friends and relatives watched with
anxious hearts for. some sign of change
for the better, but as the weary hours of
suffering passed, hope faded away, the
last quiet sleep came and the sufferer was
at rest.
Mrs. lsenberg was nearly Al years Of
age, and leaves a husband and six chill
dren, girls, the youngest of whom is .
years old. Mrs. Jones, her eldest
daughter, whose home is in Fort Col
Inns, has been in constant attendance
upon her mother during her illness. The
husband and family are overwhelmed with
grief, keenly realizing the fact that they
have lost a noble wife and loving mother,
one whose place can never be filed to
those five Young girls who need 30 much
a mothers care. Being a great lover of
home and family, one whose chief con-
Germ was the welfare of those around her,
a friend to all who needed a friend, and
one who drew the highest esteem from
all who knew her, in 20 trying an hour as
this, consolation mu come from that One
who presides over all, whose eye neither
slumbers nor sleeps. In the rsthours of
such a bereavement it is hard to see any
comfort in such a dispensation; but re-
Numbering the christian character of the
lost one, we may later be thankful that
she was spared further suffering, and that
her spirit was taken home without the
painful interlude of a longer illness. The
family has the heartfelt sympathy of the
community. Notice of the funeral will
be given tomorrow.

Frank Howard Murders Charles
Williams at Lander.
Shot From Behind by a Noted
Brave" Man.


The Moigitaiacer of Lander, in this ter
ritory. published an extra last Sunday to
give tho following particulars of a murder
in that place on the 18th instant
About $3.50 p. m, yesterday, the 18th,
while Charley Williams was standing at
the counter OF D.. Parker's saloon. IN
Main street, Frank Howard placed a re.
yolver near the back Of Williams head
and fired, the ball taking effect, and pass
ing through the brain. Williams fell to
the floor and expired almost instantly.
Denuty Sheriff L. 7. Vidal was notified
and appearing upon the scene a few min
utos after the shooting, arrested Howard
and placed him in jail.
Coroner llams was sent for, who soon
arrived, but As he had not qualified as
coroner n his collection last fall, there
was some objection made to his acting in
this Instance, and Judge Irwin, as Justice
OF the peace, refusing to act, Judge Nick
erson, who Is judge of probate and err
o6icio justice of the peace, took charge of
the body OF Williams, and thus morning at
$ O'Clock proceeded to hold an inquest.
Frank Howard is a man about 90 years
Of age, and has hitherto borne n character
noted for bravery, and was considered in
western parlance "a square man. He
and Williams were in some way connected
in the stock business, and so far as is
known have always been on friendly
terms They had quarreled to some ex-
tent during the afternoon before the
shooting occurred, but at the time Of the
shooting no words were passing between
them and Towards most intimate
friends are at n loss to account for what
they unhesitatlngly pronounce a cowardly
act
Howard has been IN this vicinity some
eight or ten years, and was formerly a
