Several witnesses to the cutting of John
Whalen by the young German, Peter
Schmidt, IN the grade OF the Cheyenne &
Northern arrived in the city yesterday.
From the story told by these witnesses the
German acted only in self defense. The
wounded man, in the light suddenly
vouchsafed him by the arrival of these
witnesses, said he did not wish to prose
cute, and the case was dropped by the
prosecuting attorney and the German re-
leased.
1t seems as though Whalen had made
a practice of imposing upon Schmidt, who
is a green German, scarcely able to speak
a word of English, and just prior to the
cutting had chased him all through the
camp with an AK. When he again as
saulted him, the German used his knife.
The reporter visited the carved man in
his quarters at the county hospital yester
day. He is not a prepossessing indi.id'
ual. He is not handsome, and the light

on finely chiseled lips; a dreamy look does
not wander backward and forward in the

generally in an interesting appearance,
and he is the last man to be taken for an
innocent victim. He is bull headed,
truculent and brutal, and offers these
gentle characteristics for critical and APP
preciative examination at every move Of
his ugly carcass.
His story was a wild howl of beastly

Last evening, attracted by the constant
stream of people of fashionable bearing
and elegant attire pouring into Holds
Masonic dining hall on Sixteenth street,
the reporter went with the current and
soon found himself at anchor within the
walls of this dainty restaurateur's estab-
lishment. Here was gathered for the
noted caterers 5 o'clock dinner, a striking
assemblage of Cheyenne's wealth, fashion
and culture. Elegance attracts and ex.
c~ellence retains, ard the dainty Chef
dourre's Held daily spreads before
his guests has earned for him a reputa-
ton which, happy as it is at present, is
ever strengthening itself. An almost
priceless French cook graces the kitchen,
and insures the menu being a bewildering
succession of astronomical triumphs.

WEATHER


The local temperature remains about
the same, the highest for yesterday being
6So, lowest 340 and mean $40. Very high
temperature has prevailed in Colorado,
Kansas, Missouri and Texas during the
past twenty four hours, the highest
reached being $40 at West Las Animas.
The temperature in the East and North

barometer prevails east of the Missouri
river but is low and falling over the West
and North, especially in Colorado and
Wyoming, where it is lower than for the
past year.
A sudden and great change in the
weather should occur very soon, but, far
Their than a strong northwest wind, it is
impossible yet to foretell what the area Of
low pressure will produce. Rain fell
yesterday at Bismarck, Custer, Helena
and Salt Lake, and is still falling at the

In the county hospital lies a man named
Henry Schaffer, Just recovering conscious
ness after being blotted from existence for
a period of seventy-two consecutive hours.
Schaffer has been employed on the cat
tie ranch of A. l.. VERIFY, zeal Grover,
Colo, forty miles south Of here, as a
laborer. Last Friday morning he, ac-
c%ompanied by a companion. went with a
team after a load of heavy timbers, a
short distance from the ranch. In load
ing the timbers on the wagon, one of
them rolled back, carrying Schaffer with
it. catching his head between the descend
ing log, and the pile of timbers from which
it had been taken. How the skull es-
capped instant crushing can scarcely be ex-
planned. When the log was removed
Schaffer was insensible, and to all APP
pearance a CHASTITY corpse, the blood gush-
ing from the ears, eyes and nose.
He was at once placed upon the wagon
by his companion and taken to the ranch,
and from thence brought here in the same
manner. All through the rough journey
the body never moved, except to the jolt
ing OF the wagon, and it was not until yes
terday morning that DR.. Marston could
recall the absent spirit.
He is now beginning to recognize his
surroundings in a dazed sort of way, and
and the doctor says he will eventually re
cover, though his head may not return tc
its original shape for a year or more
Schaffer is a telegraph operator by profes
sion, but was indulging in a season o
rest and recreation as a laborer on tn,

brought refreshments and at a season
