"CoING 70 FATHEr."
The Burden and the Journey of the
Child-W oman.

~ THE FURIOUS
In u miserable wagon, drawn by two
half starved ponies, there yesterday passed
through Cheyenne, an old woman of so,
and five great grand children. The eldest
of these grand children was a girl of II
and the youngest was a wee todler of =.
The entire family was poverty stricken
to a degree, and looked as though body
and soul were just being held together.
The life and spirit of the family vas the
girl of ~. She attended to the wants of
the garrulous old woman; quoted the
childish complaints of the young brood,
and nursed and soothed the babe.
The Curious Observer approached the
childish form in which was enshrined
such a pure womanly spirit, and deffercn-
tally doffing his hat, asked the child
woman for the history of herself and her
charges. Through the shyly yet
promptly given, there breathed the true
spirit of self reliance and self sacrifice
which made her tale possible. Three
years ago Thomas Ferguson lived with
his family in a valley of Southern Mis-
souri,, himself, his wife. wife's mother
and four children making up the family
group.
The land was poor, times were hard and
Ferguson found it up hill work to Gil with
bread the mouths dependent on him. He
had heard of the rich and boundles West,
and leaving his family to follow at some
time in the near future, had sought the
setting sun. Locating after some months
wandering, on Bear river, in Idaho, he
improved some land and was nearly ready
to send for his family when an accident
stretched him on his back, and swallow ed
up the earnings which were to have reuni-
ted the father with his family. That fam
lily he had double reasons for wishing to
see, for a few months after his departure
from his Missouri home, his wife had
presented him with a fifth child. Misfor-
tunes come in company, and soon after
the receipt of the letter announcing the
accident to her husband, the wife sickenod
and died. Now, Mary. the eldest girl,
was the sole hope and prop of the help
less family. She at once determined to
take the little children and the aged
granny" to her father. The poor home
was deeply mortgaged, but it was sold,
and with the pittance remaining after
the dests were paid, the old wagon and
ponies, the brave child started on her long
journey. Passing through Kansas, the
old wagon rolled during the summer for
the Nebraska line. The little heroine
met with innumerable mishaps and innu
merable kindnesses. Many a rough hand
helped her on, and many a rough voice
wished her God speed" Just within
Nebraska she found a resting place
for the winter, and this spring
again took up her burden. When
asked by the Curious Observer IF she
was not afraid, and did she not grow
weary, she raised her eyes, in which
shone the light of faith, hope and love,
and answered simply, ARE we not going
to our father, and so, with the rising
of yesterdays sun, the old wagon rolled
on, guided by the hands of the child
woman, made strong and enduring by her
own brave heart toward that lonely ranch
amid the Idaho mountains, where the
stricken father awaits the coming of his
children.

A BEAR STORY,
A Battle Royal with Half a Dozen
Grizzlys.

Yesterday a well known trapper and
hunter now in Cheyenne, gave the re-
porter the following adventurous remi-
niscencc:
Several years ago the hunter was
camped on Bear river, in Colorado. With
him was a young tenderfoot Just from the
East. Trapping was pretty good and the
two men let the meat supply of the camp
run down until there was nothing left but,
in trappers' phrase, coined for city society,
SOW abdomen" So one evening the
hunter and the tenderfoot started out
after fresh meat.
They soon found it, for scarcely II mile
from camp they ran on to a whole family
OF g~rizzlys, half dozen in all. AS the
bear family showed a decided inclination
for closer acquaintance, the introduction
at once took place, the rifles of the hunt
ers serving as masters of ceremonies.
Though the men fired as fast as they
could and bear after bear was knocked
down, the brutes rose to their ieet again,
and the bruin family still came on. The
rifles kept up their incessant crack. how
ever, and at a distance of twenty yards
the old she bear, the leader of the family,
fell to rise no more. Forty shots had now
been fired. and with only three cartridges
left between them the hunters were glad
indeed to see the remainder of the savage
family party turn tail and disappear
among the surrounding rocks and bushes.
On examination eight bullet holes were
found in the old she bear, five of the
eight having lodged in vital parts. The
next morning the hunters took the bloody
trails leading in various directions, and in
an hours time all the remaining bears
were found dead, making six bear bagged
in a bunch.
During the fight the wounded brutes
INDUCED frequently in their singular Gus
tom, called in hunter and trapper par
lence, shaking up" Whenever a bear
was struck by a bullet it would at once
seize one of its companions and a rough
and tumble fight would ensue. The old
she bear on several different occasions
grabbed her cubs and tossed them high in
the air, catching them as they fell. and
numerically ~''chawing' them. 1t was to
this singular custom that the hunters
probably owed their lives, as it delayed
the progress of the fcrocious family until
the deadly rifles were able to check it en-
tirely.

Messrs. Armstrong & Preston, the well
known Colorado sheep shearers, are in the

sheep. The clip averaged five and one

free from disease of any kind, and in the
most thriving condition. The lamb crop
is fine. Messrs. Armstrong & Preston

600 head of sheep on the Pole creek

1t VIII be Thrown Open to the Public
Next Week.

Cheyenne's city park will be thrown
open next week. 1t now presents a beau
tiful and inviting appearance, and will be
source of pride and pleasure to our citi-
zens. The park contains nine acres and
is centrally located. 1t is intcrsected at
right angles by Genital avenue and
Twenty-third street. Two gates now
open on Central avenue. and two
more will be at once placed on Twenty
third streets, so that the park can be
driven through from four sides.
The park inclosure is of substantial
barbed wire, and the gates will be OF
tasteful and ornamental design. The city
has spared no pains in preparing this
place of public resort and recreation. All
spring work has been going on in the in
closure. The streets traversing the grounds
have been carefully and thoroughly graded.
The irrigation and Ornamental wafer sys-
ten is perfect. A stand pipe connects
with the water main on Twenty-fo fourth
street, the highest point in the park, and
water can be supplied to the various de-
mands of the grounds at a moments no
tice.
In the center OF the park stands a fire ny
drant, and in the midst of each of the four
squares is located a lawn hydrant. Four
years ago the first trees were planted in
the park. Some of these now afford a
shade sufficient to be very grateful on a
hot day. These trees include box elder,
ash, cottonwood and maple. They are
planted all through the grounds, being
tastcfully arranged in rows.
Around each square runs a ditch, and
the squares themselves are thickly sowed
with timothy and clover. Both of these
ornamental grasses are Furnishing finely,
and the squares are magnificent lawns.
A man will be kept constantly employed
by the city during the summer attending
to the irrigative facilities and ornamental
demands of the grounds, and the city
park of Cheyenne will be an increasing
delight to her citizens as the years roll by.

A well known physician who resides in
the upper portion of the city recently,
while taking a stroll on the adjacent high
lands, had his attention attracted by the
singular actions of an animal he Justly took
to be a swift" a variety of the fox. The
animal was running backward and for
ward, now in and now out of its burrow,
making a noise more resembling the cack-
ling of a hen than anything else the doctor
could think of. Finally the swift, with a
last, long, loud cackle, disappeared in the
burrow and did not again come out The
doctor pondered over the singular circum-
stance, and the result of his cogitations
was the procuring and setting of a steel
trap at the entrance to the burrow that
very evening. The next morning he had
caught his swift, but what was his as
constituent to find that the animals tail
sported a heavy coat Of hen feathers.
Here was the explanation of the cackle he
had heard. and the doctor is now eagerly
