Editor New York World: In your paper of
"Wednesday Miss Campbell expostuates be-
cause you do not call shopgirls and saleswomen
.'ssalesladies'' 4 shopgirl is merely girl en-
ployed in shop. The term refers to her occu-
patton and not to her character. A sales
woman is woman who sells merchandise.
She may be honest and refined in addition,
but the term saleswoman refers merely to her
employment. Now, / am saleswoman in a
milliner shop. I am 19, and my mother saws

to improve myself and acquire an education.
Sometimes 1 write a little fashion Cos

will try to prove to him that I am a woman
who has thought for something higher than
dress and society.
. i wonder if the indignant Miss Campbell
knows that real rich ladies speak of them
selves and each other as ''girls'' and women %
They take the "lady" for granted. A girl is a
girl-her actions prove her title to the term
lady, and not her silly claim that she is one.
The fact 49, that, while tie real social
expressions ''lady'' and 'sgentlemen,' %
the obscure people demand them.

Yesterday was the cowboys day out
in many respects. They did not get in
ebriated or go on the warpath, nor indeed
do anything out Of the way, but having
on the night before organized themselves
into a sort Of a Labor League by
which it is presumed their rights will be
more fully protected, they on yesterday
sought to show their appreciation Of the
situation in various ways, The principal
thing with them yesterday was to get
their bnnchos and their ponies into good
manageable order, and for that purpose
they resorted to some pretty severe dis
cipline. In the afternoon some dozen or
more Of this class got together with their
ponies in the northwestern portion Of the
city and spent some hours in experiment
ing with their nags, which in several in.
stances proved to be exceedingly refrac-
tory. but their prospective riders. in most
cases, made their points and had their ami
mails in a good state of subjugation before
night. Buck Taylor, Billy the Kid
and others INDUCED in a little horse racing
for the amusement of the boys.

tor of the evening, but short addresses are

splendid concert at the opera house and
will include all the choirs of the city.
The Grafton by Rev. D. II. Moore, who is
perhaps the finest orator OF the state OF

and were there t. DO nothing else the
occasion would be a mos. attractive one.
There will be no charge for admission, as
the occasion is not for the purpose oil
making anything out of it, aud all of our
people if possible, ought to attend. W.

John Fisher went a fishing yesterday
and met with pretty good luck, for he
caught the biggest drunk that ever afhict-
ed anybody by that name, and was event.
ually ushered into the presence of a
namesake of his who dealt out Justice to
the erring one. John was assigned to
the northwest corner OF the calaboose
where he now receives callers.
George Brady drank large quantities of
rye extract yesterday, and got so drunk
that he did not know the difference be-
tween a copy Of the Police Gazette and
the new capitol site. Judge Lee admin
istered upon his case. and it is confidently
expected that after George has been in the
city jail a few days he will get decently
kind of sober.
John Reynard and John Perry lack
considerable of being m~illionaires, and it
might even be stated that they are a pair
ofconfirmed and consummate "vags," and
upon this point they were judically inter
viewed by Judge Lee Yesterday. They
were find $50 each and the court gave
them until this morning at 6 O'Clock to 20
down TO Colorado and borrow the money.
They went, but though ~anxiously C]
looked for they have not yet returned with
the money.

Buck" Taylor, who was recently with
the Buffalo Bill tloupe and who was
billed as the king of the Cowboys" has
returned to Cheyenne and will probably
be here some days. The troupe that was
here has disbanded for the season, and
Buffalo Bill is now preparing to 20 forth
with his wild West troupe, and in so
doing is to be accompanied by Taylor.
The mission of Buck Taylor to Cheyenne
is to procure a lot of horses which will
have to be taken along with the show.
Taylor is therefore, looking around and is
investing in old and superannuated horses,
but all right for the business Buffalo Bill
will have with them.

A regular circus occurred on Sixteenth
street. nearly opposite Collins harness
and saddlery shop, yesterday. One of
the cowboys who had a pony not used to
being ridden undertook to show the crowd
of several hundred who had gathered on
both sides Of the street how easy it was
to ride that pony. He made several
abortivc attempts to mount the animal
but without success, but was slowly
wearing out the pony, when the latter,
as a last resort to keep from being ridden,
laid down amid the cheers Of the multi
tude which had assembled to watch the
fun. ct this stage of the game Police

and called a halt On further proceedings
of that sort.
