A representative of The LEADER called
upon Chairman Hoyt, of the board of
county commissioners, in regard to the
prospective change of the county court
house for the city park. Mr.. Hoyt said
he had talked with all the members of the
city council in regard to the trade and all
had expressed themselves as being in
favor oft, with the exception of one. In
regard to the value Of the different prop
erty, Mr.. HoYt was of the opinion that
the amount to be allowed the city for the
park and the amount to be allowed the
county for the court house, would be de-
termined by appraisers, whose duty it
would be to determine the value Of each.
Commissioner Hoyt will be in attend
ance at the council meeting Tuesday
night and make a proposition, but he says
they may not consider the proposition in
the same manner as the commissioner.

His wife win Have Him Arrested for
Adultery.

All is not peace and joy in the Wilson
family, Although George Wilson took
unto himself a bride but a few months
ago, the probabilities are that a bill will
be filed in chancery in a few days asking
that the marriage be set aside, declared
void and altogether held for naught, and
all for the aso that George, the gay
Lothano, has been paying too much at
tention to a girl named Ella Elinger.
Yesterday Mrs. Wilson appeared before
Judge Lee and asked that Emma might
be brought into court to answer TO the
charge of adultery. She claims that n few
nights ago an old eolored woman discoT-
cred her liege lord and the charming
Emma occupying the same apartments,
and that the girl had usurped her marital
relations and now occupied the thoughts
and attentions of her husband. She
prayed that Emma might be arrested and
brought into court and dealt with accord
ing to law.
Mrs. Wilson also proposes to have the
hand Of the law upon her husband, and
for that purpose will have him arrested,
50 she says, upon a similar charge, and
is confident, with the evidence in her pos
session, she will be able to ~substantiate
the charge. There win be a lively time in
the court when the three appear, and
Hell has no fury like a woman scorned. :

DEATH.
A Horse Dies Under Very Peculiar Cir
eumstances.

Mr.. Harry 0elrichs lost a valuable
horse yesterday under very peculiar cir
cumstances On the day previous the
horse had been worked all day, and had
been driven to the city. The horse ar
rived at the ranch in the evening, and
was soon taken suddenly III with a dis
ease which greatly resembled the collie.
The symptoms were telephoned to DR..
Hopkins, and he prescribed for the horse
from the statements sent him. The ami
NAL died in a short time in great agony.
Yesterday morning DR.. Hopkins VISITED
the ranch of Mr.. 0elrichs and made an
autopsy of the dead animal. He took out
the stomach and brought it to the city
where it was on exhibition at the drug
store of Rhodes & Troxell. The doctor
said the animal had died from poison.
The stomach showed plainly the signs
which necessarily follow a case Of poison
ing, and the cause Of the death was no
doubt oOcasioned by some sort of a chemi-
al The stomach was examined by a
number of physicians of the city, among
them being Drs. Grimes, Maynard, Bark
well and Crook, who agreed with DR..
Hopkins hat death was occasioued by
poisoning.
A short time ago a valuable stallion,
worth 5000, was taken sick and soon
afterwards died, the symptoms being the
same as in this particular case. An ex-
animation was made of the stallion, but
no poison was visible, although the doc
tons say it might have been administered
in a smaller quantity.
Mr.. Oelrichs stables were burned some
time ago, and in that fire he lost two val
liable thoroughbred horses, which we're
worth thousands Of dollars. The cause of
all this is not known by Mr.. Oelrichs, or
can he give any reason for the death of
these animals. To think that they had
been poisoned accidentally is out of the
question, and to suppose they had been
~purposely killed seems equally as absurd,
1t is evident from the conversation and
remarks heard on the streets yesterday, If
the poisoning was malicious and the guilty
party could be found, that an example
would be made of him in short order.
The horse that died yesterday vas worth
at least 5000, and was one Of the best
general horses on the ranch.

John Kelley and Fred Davis wen be-
fore Judge Lee yesterday upon a charge
of demolishing the windows in the resi-
dence OF Pinkey Loyejoy. The huge
boulders that were hurled through the
glass were offered in evidence by Pinkey,
but the evidence was not sufficient. as it
could not be proved that these TWO par
ties threw them. Upon this complaint
they were discharged.
They were Immediately put upon trial
again upon n charge of creating a disturb
ance. The evidence offered by the prose
fsition was of such a character that the
judge promptly fined each of the prison
ers $l3. This amount of money they
would not nor could not pay, and they
were at once given employment upon the
streets of the city.
John Kelley concluded to get drunk
yesterday and admirably succeeded. He
was too full for u~tterance, and made the
city howl with his drunken c%arousal. The
first thing that in any manner tended to
sober him up, was the grasp of an Off
GERS hand upon his shoulder, who
marched him swiftly to the city bastile.
Yesterday afternoon he was before Judge
Lee, who gave him the usual fine of $40.
Not being fixed financially to liquidate the
indebtedness, he Joins the gang at work

yesterday afternoon upon a charge of as
sault preferred by Thomas Miles. The
fight happened about ono week ago, and
was occasioned by the loss Of a 5 cent
piece lost by Patterson. Miles was &C
cused of stealing it, and finally words led
to blows, and the willy Billy struck Miles
a terrific blow over the head with a beer
glass. After hearing the evidence the
judge concluded it best, for the yindica-
ton of the law, to fine Patterson, and the
usual fine of $40 was entered.

A LARAMIE CITY SCARE.
A Report That Smallpox Was
Among Them.
The Report Without Foundation in
Any Manner.

William McFadden was taken Ill a week
ago last Friday, on the Little Laramie
river, and was soou after taken to lara
mic City for treatment. Although quite
i'll, nothing was known as to the character
of the disease, or that he was in any seri-
Gus danger. He grew rapidly worse and
died Thursday evening. Soon there was
a great cry raised that McFadden had died
of the smallpox, and the city was thrown
into n great state of excitement over the
report In fact, there was a general scare
and the body of the deceased was placed
in a casket, and the feeling ran so high
that the authorities had the body taken to
the cemetery and left there over night in
order that a thorough examination Of the
case might be made by the physicians.
The next morning the doctors Of Laramie
City and a celebrated Cheyenne physician,
who had been telegraphed by a number of
his patients Of that city, made a thorough
and searching examination of the remains
and the result was they pronounced it a
case Of malignant measles and not small
pox ut all.
There were some very startling reports
circulated in this city in regard to the case,
some saying tina; the deceased had died of
smallpox, hat the zemains had been taken
to the cemetery in a rude box and left
there exposed all night, thus tending to-
wards the spread of the scourge. From
n gentleman who arrived from Laramie
City yesterday a reporter of THE LEADER
wa informed that this was utterly and
maliciously false; that the fact was the
body was taken to the cemetery by the
officials and left during night for the rea-
son that the public had become 50 excited
over the report that they deemed an in
vestigation necessary under the circum-
stances.
Laramie City was at a fever heat Thurs
day night and Friday morning, thinking
that the smallpox was among them in
all its fury, but the facts are that there are
no cases OF smallpox there nor have not
been, and that the report was utterly
without foundation. The report started
from the fact that the disease somewhat
resembled smallpox, and the report was at
once started that it was the latter, when
it was nothing but a case of malignant
measles.

THE CORRECT IDEA.
An Important Official Talks to the
Point.
He Is Ready to Go at a Moments
Notice.

Hon. N. II. Medium, surveyor general
of Colorado. arrived in the city last even
ing and is a guest of his brother, Hon. J..
W. Medium, surveyor general Of this
city.
MIR. Medium, or Denny rs he is
familiarity called, is n of the best known
politicians in Colorado. In fact, he m
as near as any n man Of controlling the
Republican party Of that state. He was
Tor four years a member of the state SEN
ate, Tor two terms held the office of secre-
tary OF state. and was a candidate for gov
ernor two years ago last fall. In the con-
vention he held the controlling votes,
finally withdrew from the race and threw
his strength to the Teller faction, against
Hill, and f. L. Campbell was nominated
by his party for governor. Campbell was
defeated by Governor Grant, but it was
through no fault of Meldrum's.
About W years ago he wa appointed
surveyor general of Colorado and still re-
tains that important public position. Mr..
Meldrum is particularly strong politically
in handling a county convention OF pri-
mary. He knows exactly how to handle
the delegates, and can be seen all over the
convention. He is a Republican of the
stalwart stripe, and it was through his in
fuenee that Henry NJ. Teller succeeded
N. p. Hill in the United States senate
from Colorado.
A representative of The LEADER met
Mr.. Medium last night and had a very
pleasant conversation in regard to office
holders in general. To the question asked,
Are you ready to go with the rst Of the
rascals2' Mr.. Medium replied, Yes"
What do you think Mr.. Medium, of
the policy pursued by the administration
in removing officials from office, and what
would you think if the president should
conclude to dispense with your services"
well, | should say it was all right. |
believe that it is no more than Justice that
the Democrats should be given a show,
and | believe if a Republican president
had been elected, they would have had all
the show. l am no sentimentalist, and
as o as the government concludes they
need my services no longer, | am willing
to step down and out, and will write no
letter in regard to the removal. as did the
postmaster at Rome, N. Y. or course, L
would have to plead guilty to the charge
of working for the party, and under the
rules to govern removals, l suppose l
would fall under that head"
"How are affairs in Colorado any
way, in regard to business and politics2"
Very quiet, although business is i'm
proving, and the merchants hope for a
prosperous season. The political pot has
hardly commenced to warm as yet but it
will become warmer and warmer until it is
boiling, in Arapahoe county inside of
three months. We have completely laid
out the other faction of the party, aud
there may be no serious contest for offices
this fall
Mr.. Meldrum will return to Denver in
a few days, and it would not be surprising
if he should be the Republican candidate
for an important state position at the next
general election.

The cavalry board, purchasing horses in
the West, is having a great deal of trouble
in filling their contracts. 1t is doubtful
whether all the horses needed can be OBJ
tanned by the last of June next, the end
of the fiscal year. The most economical
time for the government to purchase ami
mails is in the fall ofthe year. when the
market is crowded. as farmers prefer to
sell to keeping their horses through the
winter, during which time they are idle
and quite an expense. The prices in the
fall, compared with the spring. will be
found to be 10 to 20 per cent less.
