Many times a day the newspaper man
is asked: Well, when are they going to
work on the raiIroad2' Ten days ago
nearly, THE LEADER announced, though
not with a flourish of trumpets, that a
contract for the grading of thirty or more
miles of the new railroad had been let, so
that work would begin about May /, and
since that time other newspapers in the
city have announced, under sensational
headlines, the same fact, following in the
wake of The LEADER, and it seems that
our people ought to understand by this
time what the situation is. The Chey-
enne & Northern appears to be doing, as
the Methodists sometimes say, everything
''decently and in order" in regard to the
construction of the new road.

Prospects or the Place---Populatioii
business Houses, Etc.

From George Bolln, who arrived in
Cheyenne from Fetterman yesterday. some
interesting facts were gathered in refer
ence to the new town. The proposed new
townsite has not yet been located, and it
is not known Just when it will, nor where
tie exact site will be. There are now FIVE
stores, four saloons, two hotels and vari-
Gus other places Of business open and in
running order at Fetterman. As yet not
many new buildings are being put up on
account Of. the uncertainty Of the final
location Of the TOWNSHIP. The permanent
or rather the resident population is now
owe 200, and new ones are coming in
every day. Fetterman is just now the
center of business for all that region Of
country, and as many as 300 people come
and 20 there every day. The people
there are making great calculations on the
coal mines near that place, and it is be
iieved by them that when they are opened
and the railroad reaches that point they
will have a lively town and one that viii
grow in importance very rapidly.

munication or proposition that may be
placed in their hands. 1t should be
stated here that instead of advertising in
reference to the employment Of an archi-
tect, the secretary, Mr.. Potter, on the
authority of the board, has been and is
now in correspondence with certain archi
tects abroad. The board also passed a
resolution asking that the legal steps be
at once instituted by the attorney general
for the condemnation of that portion of

the selection made, a part of the capitol

mIDDAr BURGLARY.


One of the most daring and high
handed raids that has occurred in or
near Cheyenne for a number of years hap
pened at noon yesterday. three miles
south of Cheyenne, at Hinker's ranch.
c. T. Tinker, the proprietor of the ranch,
was absent at the time, and Charles Hall,
who resides at the ranch. was also way.
The latter had been into the city and
about IL O'Clock started to return. When
he arrived in sight Of the ranch he OBJ
served at once that something was wrong.
The door of the house was partly open
and he saw one or two men lodging
around in the yard near the house. Put
ting spurs to his horse Hall darted down
upon them. but they were too quick for
him and jumping the fence the maraud-
ers. three in number. dashed across the
field in a soutberly direction. Hastily
~dismounting he took a look through the
house and discovered that a number of
articles were gone. He then prepared to
pursue the burglars and for hat purpose
set out to arm himself. when he dis
covered for the first time that a couple ofre-
volvers that had been hanging on the wall
were gone also; in fact. there was not a
shooting ifou" left on the premises
Nevertheless, Hall pursued the party until
he saw them jump aboard OF a freight

A special meeting Of the board of
county commissioners was held at the
court house yesterday afternoon. The
board met for the purpose Of effecting ar
rangements in regard to the bridges across
Pole creek and the Chugwater. on the
road between Cheyenne and Fort Lara
mic. The matter was discussed in all Of
its various phases, and as NJ. p. Keefe
had previously been conferred with in re-
gard te the matter, that gentleman was
present and compared notes with them
upon the subject The outcome of the
meeting was that Mr.. Keefe is to super
wise the putting in Of the two bridges and

nominations Of Colin Hunter and Thorn
as Swan as brand commissioners, after
which it adjourned but will probably hold

The prospects of the Glchrist mining
district are such that it appears probable
that a town-which will of course be
tributary to Cheyenne-will soon spring
up there. Mr.. A. Gilchrist. on whose
land the mineral claims have been found,
has under consideration the laying out of
a ownsit at some convenient point IN
the new camp. The events of the next
few days will determine the course to be
pursued, but the prospects are decidedly
in favor of the idea.
