The Wickedest City in the World.

world, writes Eli Perkins in the New
York World. 1t SO far surpasses
Dodge City, Cheyenne and Lcadville in
pure and unalloyed wickedness that II
is a shame to mention them in con-
nection with Butte City. Butte ac-
knowledges no rival but Miles Clty--a
COW town over the mountains on the
Northern Pacific. Miles City tries
hard to be the wickedest city, but
being a simple COW town 1t cannot
compete with Butte City, which has
both mines and cattle ranches. Hele-
ena. Montana. situated between Butte
and Miles, is proud Of its wickedncss
too. 1t has its myriad of gambling

The Buffalo Becoming Extinct

A Dallas Crex.) special says: For
years it has been 4 matter of specula-
ton as to whether the American Indian
or the bison would go first. But,
according to Mr.. Nimmo, United
States statistician, the speculation is at
an end. for he estimates that there are
not above 1000 head of the bison
species in existence. Mr.. Charles
Goodnight, one Of the largest cattle
men of the Panhandle, seeing that the
buffalo will in a few years be curl
osty, has concluded to keep herd on
his PATIO Duro ranch. He will keep a
portion of them TO themselves, and
with others he will try the experiment
of crossing them with the Polled Angus
bull. The theory has long. IN fact
always, obtained that the buffalo and
the COW could cross. but not criss-
cross, in other words that buffalo
COW would breed from an ordinary
bull. but that the COW would not breed
from the buffalo bull on account Of
physical impossibility found in the
Jumps on the buifalos back. This
theory has been exploded by a case on
Mr.. Goodnight's ranch. lie has 4
calf from buffalo bull and a native
Texas COW. As the Polled Angus bull
is a shaggy animal, and bears a close
resemblance to buffalo, anyway, MIR.
Goodnight thinks the experiment Of
crossing them will be curiOusly inter
csting one, and in all probability a
successful one.

On the end inst, Johann Most,
anarchist, was sentenced TO the peni-
tentiary for one year and fined $aoo.
His associate, Braunschweig, got nine
months in the penitentiary and was
fined $3.50. Schenck was sent to the
penitentiary for nine months, but was
not fined. Recorder Smyth, in sen
fencing Most. expressed regret that
the law did not permit him to impose
heavier sentence. His crimes, he
said. deserved the punishment awarded
to capital oflenses. He also told him
he was the greatest scoundrel he had
ever seen at that bar. Braunschweig,
the recorder. said, was almost equally
guilty. Schenck, he thought, was the
dupe OF his companions, but he de-
served punishment to warn him and
Others against following the teachings
of such men as Most. None Of the
prisoners attempted to speak word
in court. Tney were taken back to

The New Mexico delegation and about fifty delegates from other sec tions of the country are here. So far as it is possible to learn this morning, there is no opposition made to the delegate plan Representation, except by three or four delegates.

A Tribute to Local Papers.

Every year, says the Hon. David
 Davls, in letter to an Eastern literary
 paper, every local paper gives from $Ioo
 to $5,ooo in free lines for the sole benefit
 of the vicinity in which it is located. No other agency can or will do this. The local editor, in proportion to his means, does more for his town than any other ten men, and in all fairness, man with man, he ought to be supported, not be- cause you may happen to like him or ad- mire his writing, but becase a local paper is the best investment a community can make. It may not be brilliant or crowded with great thoughts, but fnan- cially it is more of benefit to com munity than the preacher or teacher. Understand me now, do not mean morally or intellectually, but financially, and yet on this moral question you will find the majority of the local papers are on the right side of the question. day the editors of local papers do the most work for the least money of any man on earth. Subscribe for and advertise in your local paper, not as charity, but as an investment

sheridan on Cowboys.

A Washington telegram says that General Sheridan does not believe in the scheme suggested by Congressman Laird, of Nebraska, to enlist regiment of cowboys to fight the Apaches. He says that cowboys fight pretty we'll when they are drunk. but does think they would be of very much service on long, tedious campaign, Tn which discipline has to be maintained. If regiment of iron. tiersmen, who had served in the army, could be raised, as was the case in the Indian war in Kansas during the years of 1868 and 1869, they would undoubted- ly be very serviceable, but the veterans of the war are now too old to endure the hardships of an Indian campaign, and it would be impossible to enlist enough of them. As an illustration of the bravery of the cowboys in an Indian war, Gen eral Sheridan says tha. while he was down in Arizona few weeks ago, a ranchman came in to complain that party of five Apaches attacked his place, burned his buildings, killed two or three people and stampeded his cattle. He thought the government ought to protect him.
 "How many cattle have you?" asked General Sheridan.
 "Ten thousand,' was the reply.
 "And how many cowboys?"
 "Twenty-seven."
 "And you come here and complain of the failure of the army to protect twenty seven cowboys against five Indians. You ought to be ashamed of yourself"

 have heretofore notified you that l own three-ffths of the surface ground of the Way Up mine. l now notify you that claim no right to said ground against any one who has been in posses sion of lot or lots thereon for five years, as think the five years statute of limita- ton commenced to run on September P, 1880, when the patent to the town site issued. But, in any event, would not disturb any one who has improve ments on lot for several years; unless, in the case of one who has indentified himself with those who fraudulently ob- tained the townsite title from Alder Ran dall, mayor, or who now buys or has late ly bought of them or given them aid or assistance.
 But, as to all of the lots on said Way Up mine now vacant or unoccupied, or that have lately been settled on or bought from the townsite claimants, or claimants under the Way Up mine, will assert my rights, but will sell at a reasonable price, reserving my right to refuse to sell to any one who, by purchasing lots as aforesaid from other claimants and pay ing for more than two-fifths thereof has indenti6ed himself with the frauds.
 N. B. The two-ffths interest Tn said Way Up surface which l do not own or claim, does not belong to any one in Tombstone, as near as can find out by the records ofthe county.
