Then as to the immediate situation.
Reader, did ever you see a careful setter
run suddenly into the middle of a covey

gether, but a little dispersed and repos-
ing in high cover in the middle of the
day? No human face is ever so intense
or human form more rigid. He knows
that one bird is three yards from his
nose, another the same distance from
either ear, and, in short, that they are
all about him, and to brighten one is to
brighten all.
His tail quiyers, and then turns to
steel, like his limbs. His eyes glare; his
tongue fears to pant; it slips out at one
side of his teeth and they close omit.
Then slowly, slowly, he goes down,
nOiseless as cat, and touches on the
long covert, whether turnips, rape, or
clover.
Even so did this designing cur couch
in the Dun Cow.
The loyal quadruped is waiting for
his master, and his anxiety is disinter-
ested. The biped cur was waiting for
the first streak Of dawn to slip away to
some more distant and safe hiding-p,ace
and sally-port than the Dun Cow, kept
by woman who was devoted to Hope,
to Walter, and to Mary, and had all her
wits about her-mother-wit included.

TIE SERPENT.

Monckton slipped away at the dawn,
and was off to Derby to prepare first
rate DISCUSSES.
At Derby, going through the local
papers, he found lodgings offered at a
farmhouse to inyalids, fresh milk and
eggs; homemade bread, etc. The place
was within few miles of Clifford Hall.
Monckton thought this would suit him
much better than being too near. When
his DISCUSSES were ready, he hired
horse and dog-cart by the month, and
paid a deposit. and drove to the place
in question. He put some shadow lul-
der his eyes to look more like an invalid.
He had got used to his own cadaverous
tint, so that seemed sufficient.

Obtained In a Vigorous Runaway
Smashup.


Yesterday while one of Harry Oelrich 5
teams was coming along the road five
miles nor.h of the city, the hostler stopped
the team at the Valley ranch and went in
the house. The team became frightened
and ran down he lane, coming in contact
with a pair of horses and buggy driven by
John Smith, the buggy was upset and
the pole was broken and Smith was
thrown out, sustaining a compound
fracture of one leg The pole made a large
cash in the side of the horse, belonging
to MIR. Oelrich. DR.. Hopkins sewed up
the wound, and did what he could for the
animal.
Smith was formerly a jeweler who
worked in this city for Zehner, Jackson
x Beuchner, and heis a nephew of james
Smith who works in Hon. David Miller's
establishment. Since leaving the jewelry
business he has been engaged in horse
raising and is the partner of Jno. Me

A MURDERER.
On His way to Colorado to Answer for
n Fearful Crime.

Yesterday the delayed train from the
west brought to this city in charge of
Colorado officers, Charles Chumley, who
murdered George Stein in North Park
last Monday. He was being taken 10
Fort Collins for trial The Laramie
boomerang has the following account of
the terrible crime:
Geo. Stein, the murdered man, was
about sc years of age, and originally came
from Monroeton, Pa, but had lived in
Chicago for some time previous to his
arrival in this country, which was early
last fall, when he went to work on Pal
mer's ranch On the Michigan, as fore
man, which place he held until May
last. At that time Mr.. j. p. Lamson, a
brother in-law of Palmer, took charge,
but Stein confined in the employ of
Palmer.
Charles Chumley came out in Febru-
airy and went to work at Hardy's ranch,
building fence, and aiterward helping
during the harvest. Stein never drank,
but Chumley drank hard. The latter
was accustomed TO visit the former, who
befriended him in many ways. About
noon on Monday he came to Stems
house, and was evidently under the in
huence of liquor. He got some clothes
he had there, OF Mrs. Stein, and init
mated that he would like to stay to din.
ner, but was not asked to do so, on ac.
count Of his condition, and seemed to
be offended thereby. As he left the
house he met Mr.. Lamson and asked
him to drink but he refused. Chumley
declared that he had been insulted, and
would fixed Lamson. He had II IS.
calibre Bull Dog revolver with him,
which he pointed at Mrs. Stein twice in
the house, and kept fiourishing about
in a reckless manner. This weapon he
is said to have taken form the house of
Lew Long, who lives near by, against the
protest of the women folks who were on
the premises.
Stein was standing out in the yard,
about twenty feet from the door. when
Chumley left the house, working at a
sickle grinder. Chumley seemed deter
mined to have trouble, and after going
and getting on his blackboard, jumped off
a gain and, going up to Stein, began call
ius him hard names. The latter thought
he was fooling, but Chumley said, 'If
anybody called me such names | would
shoot them II suppose you would, "
said Stein. More words were passed and
then came the report of the pistol, imme-
diately after which Stein ran into the
house and sank down on the floor at his
wife feet. He was covered with blood
and WAS closely pursued by his slayer, who
evidently intended In give him another
shot. Mrs. Stein stopped over her hus-
band, and as Chumley approached pushed
him off, causing him to drop the revolver,
which she handed to another person. The
murderer seemed sobered By the result of
his crime, and declared he would 90 for a
doctor at once, and started off as if to do
50, but after going to a neighboring house
and telling Of the deed. changed horses
and fed in the direction of the Canadian
line. Stein tried to speak to his wife but
in VAN, aud breathed his last a few sec
onds after the shot was fired. Chumloy
fed. but was captured the day following
the murder.

Our Correspondent tells of a Jail Bird
who Wants TO he Cremated.


A most determined attempt was made
to burn our county Jail At this place last
night. John Smith, the horse-thief u
pected of being connected with the Teton
gang of thieves and cut threats, was al
lowed a candle in his cell. He managed
to procure a case knife also, aud digging
a lot of splinters in the pine door of his
cell set them on fire. They failed to burn,
and the reckless ~incendiary. then by
means Of his bunk climbed to the cell
ceiling and tried to burn the woodwork
away from the iron ventilator. Had he
made a success, both he and Frank How
ard, confined in an adjoining cell on charge
Of murder would have inevitably roasted
to death before they could have been
reached from the outside. Smith is now
heavily ironed.

BRILLIANT.
The Waiter Drill and ChocoIa-
taire.
A Great Audience and a Delightful
Entertainment.

last night the parquet and dress circle
OF the opera house were completely filed
with a brilliant audience from among the
wit and beauty, the wealth and fashion of
Cheyenne to witness the Wdiier Drill, the
prelude to the ChocoIdtairc in Library
hall. The young ladies in the drill were
Miss Louise Swan, captain, and four sets
of fours comprised of Misses Fannie
Crook, Lulu Whipple, Mary Provine,
Jennie Kruger, Blanche Moore, Clara
Morgan, May Woods, Kate Friend, Maude
Harris, Sophia Snyder, Jessie Barkwell,
Minnie Gillian and Ida Baker. They had
been most thoroughly prepared for the
drill by Capt. Foote, Of the regular army,
and in their performance not only did his
tutorship but their adaptability great
credit. The fint drill was in evolntions,
Rankings, filings and marching, and they
went through a long series of bewildering
windings of the kind mentioned without
a bobble, keeping step and alignment
perfectly throughout, At the end of this
part numerous exquisite floral pieces
sent up by friends were distributed
among them. The most noticeable
of these was a flower waiter presented to
Capt Louise Swan. In this piece the
disk was composed of tube roses, mar
guerites. feveriews and primroses, the
rim was of jacquinot roses. carnations
and rose geranium leaves Across the
piece vas the word Captain in licac
immortelles, and altogether the beautiful
thing was an odorous delight 1t was the
~handiwork of Mrs. V. S, Giafcke, the
florist, as were nearly all of the floral
pieces.
After a short intermission, the young
ladies' appeared again, this time armed
with walters, each of which had the
initial monogram OF the bearer gilded
upon its center. The captain bore for a
sword a huge golden spoon. After some
marching TIE company was formed and
the roll called by Miss Crook, the orderly
sergeant. who made an excellent leader
in the entire drill. and after the
formation Of the company and
inspection Of arms tho captain
put the command through the manual
Of arms, which was unique, amusing and
perfect in movement. This closed the
drill and the company and spectators ad-
journed to Library hall where the choco-
late wa served with other refreshments,
and there was a delightful dance to the
numbers of Prof, inman's orchestra.
After the Chocolataire the walters with
the monographs were sold at auction, pro-
ducing high prices and hilarity.
Altogether and in every particular, the
affair was n brilliant and charming sue
cess. The entertainment delightful, the
dance most joyous, the refreshments de-
licious and the receipts exceedingly graft
flying.
