No Water for Eleven DAYS,

The shipwrecked crew of the
British Bark Benefactress were
adrift in an open boat, supporting
iife on some bits of dry bread and
few apples. This was slim fare,
and reduced them to a state Of
great feebleness. But Browns

folks up rapidly, even from such
depths as this. 1t enriches the

a Demand for women.

y
demand for rain. Out in Wagon
Wheel, Ida, recently,a couple of old
maids were called there to attend
dying brother. The brother died
but before the girls could get away
the whole male population was
after them, including the mayor,
justice Of the peace and other no
tables. Excitement ran high, and
bids were six to one on the mayor
ct al. In six days after their arri-
val the battle was over and the girls
both engaged. The mayor had been
cut out by Swapping young miner
of thirty. The weddings were set
and the mother sent for, in order
that proper eclat might be given.
She arrived in due season, and
at once sailed into the girls for
their disrespect Of their late broth
Ell and their immoderate haste. She
declared the marriages off, and an
nounced her intention of taking
her daughters home with her. In
despair q mass-meeting was called
and the mayor was appointed a
committee to wait on the mother
and persuade her to reconsider
the former notion. Like all good
mayors, Chicago's included, this
gentleman waited upon the irate
mother. He called her attention to
the great need ofWagonWhee and
IN the nameof patriotism implor-
ed her not to inflict such crush
ing blow on the hopes of the town.
The mother was obdurate,
and declared that she
wonld not depart with
out her daughters. On this hint the
mayor spoke. He at once proposed
a compromise. The mother need
not depart at all. She was fair,
fat aud fifty odd. So was he. They
wouldpool their issues. And they
did. The three women are Low
connecting excuses by which all
their belated female friends and
relatives east can be brought to

An Alligator Swallows Il Man.
Orange City (Fla.) Times.
Last week a man, presumably a
tramp, knocked at l.. p. Thursby'a
door abo 1T 8 o'clock at night after
the family had retired. Mr..
Thursby struck a match and re-
spondcd to the call. The man
stated that he had walked fifteel
miles that afternoon t. take the
night boat bound north and got
lett and wanted to stay all night
Ihursby handed him a key anC
pointed to the barn, stating that
that was the best he could do fol
him. Not until after Mr.. Thurs,
by had retired sometime did he
think Of the ten-foot alligator his
boys had in the barn for the en-.
tainment of strangers next winter
and worried considerably about
the man. AS soon as he dressed
he hurried out to the barn mex
morning to see about the man
He found the door locked will
the key turned on the inside. liz
forced a side window open, founl
the alligator in its usual corner
but the man was missing. The
evidence gathered points to the
destruction Of the man during the
night, as the animal ate nothing
during the next few days. Moth
ing can be heard of the man, ant
it is believed he came to an un.
timely end that night. Whether
the man was a worthless tramp OF
an honest and worthy citizen, it i.
one of the saddcst catastrophes
the Times has yet been called up
OH to chronicle.

a FREMONT COUNTY CRIMINAL.
A Long Chase and a rinaf Capture of
The Rysrier.

Stock Inspector S~parhawk is back in
Lander, bringing back with him the horse
thief he has so persistently pursued. The
'rustler's nam is Daniel Rhinehart.
and the stolen horse is the property of
Mr.. g. w. Baxter. The animal had
strayed from Mr.. Bakers Big Horn stock
range and was picked up by Rhinehart ON
the Sweetwater. Sparhawk traced his
mar through the Crow Indian reservation
to Billings. on the Northern Pacific, and
there learned he had gone to the North
west, evidently striking for the British
possessions.
Pushing forward on the trail, the officer
followed across the immense breadth of
Montana Territory, finally o%verhauling his
man near Fort Benton on the Missouri
river, $50 miles from Billings, and 375
miles from Lander. The pursuit and re-
turn occupied a month. Ere this the pre-.
liminary examination has been held, and
the vigilant and active inspector has con-
signed another horse thief to the Fremont
county jail, to appear for trial before the
July term of court.

1t appears as though Hardin Grant, in
dicted by the grand jury last week for for
gerry, has escaped a trial by finding a
watery grave in the North Platte. Grant
was in the employ Of j. NJ. Tompkins.
one of his bondsmen, as a cowboy. and
attempted to cross the North Platte near
Fort Laramie by a treacherous and danger
Gus ford. His horse was subsequently
picked up some miles below, covered with
mud and sand. The saddle was turned
and one of the stirrups missing. Nothing
has been seen OF Grant since. and the
very natural conclusion is that his body is
lying among the rocks and sand ef the
%treacherous river.
Grant was a United States prisoner, his
alleged offense consisting of raising 81
bills to the denomination of s.. To effect
this the stamps bearing the figure 80, ~
placed on cigar boxes to mark the half
hundred, were used. The cipher was cut
away and the five pasted over the word
one on the manipulated bill. In spite
of the bungling execution of the work,
quite a number of our merchants received
these bills, owing principally to the fact
that in every instance they were presented
after dark, when the fraud was naturally
less subject to detection.
On complaint of one of the victims
Grant was arrested on the 9th of last

Last Thursday morning All Kee was
missed from his usual haunts in China
town, Rock Springs. He did not show up
during the day, and when Friday morning
came without the missing celestial, search
was made for him, and "a body, a horrid
body, irightfully mangled, was found in
an out Of the way, disused and tumble
down shanty. The corpse was crowded in
behind some old boxes and barrels in one
corner of the shanty. A deft and power
ful stroke from a heavy and keen knife
had completely disembowelcd the body.
Saturday the murderer, whose name the
reporter could not ascertain, was discov-
cred by the mining boss, taken into Gus
tody and sent to Green River City. 1t is
said that the dead man and his slayer
have only recently arrived from China,
where they belonged to the same neigh
borhood, and that a dispute over the
charms of an almond eyed maiden, now
wandering in the %fowery gardens of the
celestial Kingdom, was the cause OF the
tragedy.

Scarlet fever is prevalent in Evanston.

The Buffalo Echo says: A Cheyenne
buck came into the post trader 5 store at
Fort keogh five years ago, holding in his
hand a long, iciclc shaped pendant of the
purest kind of virgin gold, which he said
he had broken off from beneath an over
hanging rock in the Big Horn mountains.
He would, however, tell nobody the exact
spot he got it from. How it came to be
in the h pc described it is hard to say.
The Evanston Chicttpih reports that
Hon. W. W. Corlctt, of Cheyenne, and
G, d. Clark, Esq, attorneys for the
Union Pacific Railway company, made a
settlement in Evanston with thirteen Of
the widows and relatives of parties killed
in the terrible gas explosion, which oc-
cured at Union Pacific mine No. /. ON
the night of the 10Th OF January last
The friends of each of the two boys killed
received each 81. 800, while the wife of
each married man that was killed received
$1,000. 1t took for the adjustment Of
these claims S2S. 900. The claimants ex-
press themselves as highly pleased with
the manner in which the company has
settled with them.
The BooDcroDg has news from North
park of a sad tragedy by which the wife
of Ducal Mckinnon, Il well known ranch
man down there, lost her life. Mr.. Me.
Kinnon. with his wifc's son and her
nephew, had gone out on a hunt, leaving
her at the house alone. On their return
they found her lying in a corral near the
house, dead. A lariat was wound and
twisted about her body and neck, one leg
and both arms we're broken and her skull
was crushed in, a frightful sight, and the
corpse that of Il bride OF four weeks. 1t
appears that when McKinnon and the
boys went away they left a sick horse in
the corral, and the theory is that Mrs.
McKiunon went out to attend to it, that
sLe was kicked aud knocked down and
that the animal stamped her to death. 1t
was a most horrible affair and one the
details of which must always remain a
mystery.

Hazardousncss of Railway Employment
Speaking with a well informed rail
road mar recently on the h-azardotsness
of railway employment, he said the aver
age life of freight brakemen is only about
ten wears, and that in the neighborhood
of 20 per cent. Of the men employed
on trains are injured every five years.
The great majority of accidents, he said,
occur in the handling of freight trains,
and are due to the fact that the engineer
has little or no control over his train.
There has been very little improvement
in this respect for years past, and yet
there are modern appliances for use on
freightas well as on passenger trains, by
the use Of which the liability Of accidents
would be vastly lessened. If the rail
roads would use driver-brakes ON their
freight locomotives and automatic brakes
for freight cars, the hazards Of employ
ment on this class q trains would hardly
be greater than on passenger trains. And
yet the companies go on paying heavy
damages for accidents and enormous
fees and costs for litigation rather than
provide their trains with these improved
applianccs.-Cor Chicago Journal.

DIRT WILL Fly.


Contractor j. j. Brown, who is to build
the Cheyenne 4 Northern railroad from
this point to Fort Fetterman, has arrived
in the city accompanied by three carloads
of teams. The reporter sought the con
tractor in his rooms at the Inter Ocean
hotel, and was most courteously received.
The conditions of the contract call for the
completion of forty miles of the road this
season, with one year from the LIST Of the
coming August to put the road through
to Fetterman.
Mr.. Brown, however, states hat sixty
miles of the road will be completed this
season. Track laying will begin on the
first twenty miles by the LIST of August.
MIR. Brown, accompanied by a party of
surveyors, made a trip over the first six
miles Of the route yesterday. Mr.. Me
Murray, the roads right of way agent,
returned a day or two ago from a trip
over the route, and Superintendent Deuel.
informs the reporter that the first twenty
two miles of the road are ready for
the graders. Mr.. McMurray will be in
Cheyenne next Thursday.
The contractor has advertised for men
and teams by conspicuously posted bills,
and as soon as the necessary preliminary
arrangements can be made. dirt will in
deed fly upon the Cheyenne K Northern.
Mr.. Brown states that he earnestly desires
to employ home labor in the construction
of the road. He says the county has paid
a heavy bonus. and tina. it is entitled to
imperative consideration in the disburse-
ment of the construction fund. The city
should also have the full benefit of the
supply demand, and satisfactory arrange
ments to this end can doubtless be
effected.
The contractor says the advertisement
for men and teams in the Denver papers
was inserted without his knowledge, and
that he knew it yesterday morning for the
first time.
Mr.. Brown is a resident of Council
Bluffs, Ia, and has long been known as IA
prominent railroad. contracter.0 He built
800 miles of the Northwestern through
Iowa; constructed a great deal ofthe Rock
Island, and has built over 500 miles for
the Union Pacific.
Work will be pushed rapidly forward.
Between $50 and 400 men will he put at
work with a force of seventy or eighty
teams. As the work this year will be over
a country requiring a light grade, the
heavy force to be put in motion must
make rapid progress. Four dollars per
day will be paid for teams, and 81. - for
laborers.
