Two Electric Light Employer FAN .
Distance or Twenty-Eight Feet.


What might, and in nine times out OF
ten would have been a very serious if not
= fatal accident. occurred in the western
portion of the city late yesterday after
noon. Two of the electric light com
pany's employees, Smith and Wood.
whose first names were not ascertained,
were engaged in taking down some electric
light wires from one Of the poles nearly in
front of the Second Baptist church, on
Thomes street They were both at nearly
the top Of the pole, and some twenty
eight or thirty feet from the ground, and
were both standing on the cross beam or
pole when it suddenly broke. and without
a moments warning the two men were
precipitated to the ground, some thirty
feet below. Both men were quite pain
fully injured, but their injuries were not
OF a dangerous or fatal character. The
great mystery of the whole affair is that
they were not both instantly killed or
fatally injured by the terrible fall.

A Young Woman Thrown From a Horse
Narrowly Escaping Death.

-
A very serious, and what WAS at first
thought to be a fatal accident, happened
nearly opposite THE LEADER office on
Seventeenth street. yesterday afternoon.
A young woman named Nellie Mallem
was out horse back riding, mounted on a
horse, however. not disposed to be vicious
or skitish. When in front of the opera
house the horse suddenly became fright
ened, it is supposed at some boys at play
near the opera house corner, and plunged
forward, making a most fearful leap, The
plunging Of the horse WAS so sudden and
unlocked for that Miss Mallem was
thrown head first to the ground, striking
upon or near the sidewalk on the south
side of Seventeenth street. Her riding
habit caught in some way as she fell and
was partly torn of and was borne away
by the horse, who ran at full speed to the
livery stable from where he had been
taken. A large crowd at once gathered
at the spot and the injured girl wal car
ried into the territorial library room, the
door of which CHANGED to be open at he
time. DR.. G. W. Corey, who witnessed
the accident, was upon the ground. and
being called to her assistance, soon ascer-
tanned that she had not been fatally or
even dangerously injured, and as soon as re-
stored to CONSCIOUSNESS she was taken into a
hack and driven home. her injuries being
painful, and perhaps serious. although no
bones were broken nor neither did she
sustain injuries Of 4 very alarming char

Architect. and Contractors.

Architects and contractors are begin
ming to pour into Cheyenne from every
direction. There are several contractors
from abroad in the city watching for the
turn of coming events, and they will be
prepared to offer bids for the erection of
the new capitol when the proper time
comes. Architects also are getting to be
numerous, and they, too, are waiting for
an opportunity to be heard. The archi
tect of the Colorado state capitol has been
here, and on Saturday evening last ex
pressed at some length his views to an in
formal meeting of the commissioners.
Another architect, and from the East,
made his appearance yesterday and will
also interview the commissioners at the
earliest opportunity.

N Explanation.

To the Editor Of THE LEADER
CHEYENNE. Nyo,. April I'm your
issue of Yesterday. in an editorial article
in reference to the strike Of the railway
employees in the Southwest, you say:
1T is evident from the signs every
where that employers will be compelled in
the end TO recognize the Knights of
Labor as an organization. The refusal of
the ST. Louis railroad representatives to
come to the point is the principal obstacle
in the way OF peace. This order is being
recognized by everybody else in every
other place. and it is useless for any class
of railroad managers or representatives to
longer stand out against the inevitable y
] trust that the usually conservative
and fair minded LEADER does not mean
by this that the employers OF labor must
or should unconditionally surrender the
management Of their business to the die
tation or power OF the Knights Of Labor.
The great corporate and industrial inter
ests Of the country might as well at once
throw up their hands and close up shop if
they have to como TO that.
D. BUSINESSMAN"
A fair Interpretation of THE LEADERS,
words used in the paragraph quoted does
not Justify the construction put upon it by
our correspondent. The writer certainly
did not intend to convey that impression.
The LEADER spoke Of the folly of the
railroad managers at St. Louis in pretend
ing to ignore Tie existence Of the order of
the Knights of Labor. and in refusing to
treat with it as an organization, when, by
merely recognizing 1t, they could have
brought the strike to a close. A r%ecogni-
ton of the existence Of the order is not a
surrender to its dictation or power"
No man who is capable of managing bis
OWN business will surrender it to the CON
troll of others, nor viii any honest or rea-
sonable person or organization ask, advise
or expect him to do so.

1t now trauspires that Mrs. G. B. Good
ell was, if not the original prime mover
in getting up the late charity fair, at least
one Of them. and is entitled to equal credit
with Others who assisted in the good work.
Mrs. Goodell who does many christian
and charitable acts in such a way that the
world at large never knows first conceived
the idea Of getting up a charity fair and
starting out in her carriage visited others
who felt disposed to engage in the work
and by this means awakened an interest
in the work which has resulted in so much
good. Though taking no prominent
public part in the arrangement and con
duct Of the fair yet nevertheless she ought
TO have been mentioned among Others
who did such noble work in behalf Of the
poor and suffering and would have been
were it not that on such occasions the re-
porter annot always ascertain all of the
facts which ought 10 DO mentioned.

Among the new aud important manu-
features established in Denver during the
past year, which deserves special notices
and encouragement, is the Western
Chemical Works. manufacturers of sui
phuric, nitric and muriatic acids, sulphate
of copper, etc etc They began bust
ness the first Of July last, and since
October have been running steadily day
and night. and SO far have only been able
to meet the actual demands for their
goods. They will o add to their list
ammonia, the different classes of soda,
and other chemicals. The necessity for
such work has long been felt, and their
success assures the keeping OF large
amounts of money at home which has
heretofore been sent East. The raw
material used in the works being obtained
in our own mountains, gives employment
to MANY OF our people. In view Of the
increasing demand for their chemicals,
they have decided To organize a company
with 800, 900 capital, with which they
Will double their capacity, so as to be able
tie meet any possible demand.

The rush of p~rospectors to the new and
hourishing mining camp known as Silver
Crown is beginning to set in and is no
doubt destined to turn into quite a
stampede as soon as the spring is a Little
further advanced. New discoveries are
constantly being made there of what are
claimed to be rich and promising lodes.
&. II. Bryant and c. IL. Miller. of the
new camp, who camo down to Cheyenne
a day or two ago exhibit some exceedingly
fine specimens from the No. 2 Sunset and
the Hidden Treasure lodes which are
claimed to be among the richest of any of
the mines in the hills-not excepting even
the well known King David lode at which
the smelter has been located. The
smelter is not running at present owing to
a scarcity of water, but it is expected that
this drawback will not last very long.

PROM
The MIL In Full Blast ana Running
Night aud Day.

W. r. Miller. who returned yesterday
from n trip to Runningwater brings news
from that point which is very encouraging
for the mining outlook in that embryo
camp.
The Silver Cliff stamp mill was set to
running on the first of April and is now
in full blast. There is at present a force
of between thirty and forty men employed
in and around tho mill. which since it
started has been kept running night and
day. In addition to the men employed
at the mill the great Wyoming Mining
company has many others at work in and
about the mines. The mill is doing ex
cellent work and the ore is of an excellent
quality. There are now about 200 people
permanently located at Runningwater and
in addition to that number there are
many there living in tents of which there
are at least forty pitched principally
around Baker & Johnson's store. The
people at Kunningwater are confident that
their boom is close at hand, railroad or
no railroad.

The New York Tribune processes to be
possessed Of information to the effect that
certain cypher dispatches are being sent
from Wall street in New York City to
some of the head officers Of the Knights
Of Labor organization. the inference being
that there is some understan ding between
these officers and the Wall street brokers
by which the prices of stock are to be af-
fected by the strike. 1t does not seem
possible that such a state Of affairs exist,
bat if it does it shows that the Knights
Of Labor can place but little confidence
in some Of their leaders
