The Territorial Library is being moved
from the old quarters on the second floor of

ters are much more convenient than the old
and are more desirable in every respect.
1t was rumored on the street this morning
that man had been found dead in the snow
near the road between Pennington and this
city. Inquiry in different quarters fails to
elicit anything definite about the matter
and 1t is possible that the whole thing is a
hoax.
1t will be pleasant to the members of the
entire Territorial bar to learn that Judge

Andrew w. Cooley, who has served one
term in the Pen for unlawful oohabitation,
was arraigned in the Third District Court
to-day on another one-count indictment,
charging the same offense. He entered a
plea of not guilty, indicative of standing by
the faith. If Brother Cooley can stand an
other dose, the Pen. will probably be able to
stand it too, and his fellow citizens will
strain point to do without him for an
other six months.
Mr.. Jos. Kessler formerly of this city,
but now living on his big ranch on the
upper Sewer river, has himself and whole

X. in this city will be grieved to hear of his
sorrow, and will deeply sympathize with
him in his trouble.

Charles Denny, the lilliputian toy cohab.,
emerged from the Pen. this morning looking
none the worse for his rest from matrimo-
NAL cares. This little half of man went
before Commissioner Critchelow and testi-
fed that he didn't own half a cent. He was
given his freedom, and will 90 back to the
bosoms Of his families and enjoy himself as
best he can until he is again picked up by
the law. Denny is SO small that, in any
community where honest witnesses are the
rule, he would have to lie awake all night
trying to think of some way to prove that he
is older than his youngest son.
