Late on Tuesday evening a herd of cat
tie belonging on one of the ranges north
Of Cheyenne, was driven through the
northeastern portion of the city, and
while they were on the way got into a
stampede and an uproar generally. in
which one of the steers had n leg broken.
The balance Of the band and the drivers
passed on leaving the animal in the city
limits. The wounded steer became fu-
rious, and set the whole northeastern por-
ton of the city in a great state OF excite.
ment. A little boy was attacked by the
steer and came near being killed, but in
some way succeeded in making his es-
cape. Word was sent to City Marshal
Schnitegner about the matter, and armed
with a shotgun and a six-shooter he went
on the trail Of the Infatuated animal, but
when he reached the point where the
steer had made the attack on the little
boy the steer could not be found, and ha.
not been seen since, although search was
made for him a good portion of Tuesday
night and yesterday. 1t is supposed tina
the animal has been run in" by some
body and butchered.

The question Of the speakership of the
house of representatives is being canyass-
ed. Up to a late hour last night there
had been no definite agreement as to that
important feature. There does not APP
pear to be any political question connected
with the matter, and it does not appear
that any attempt has been made to draw
party lines. Although the house is large
ly Republican, the position has been Of
fered to Hon. j. NJ. Tompkins, ofLarnmie
county, a Democrat, who has declined. 1t
does not appear that any of the Laramie
delegation are aspiring to the position, aud
as Albany county has the presiding officer
of the council, it is hardly to be expected
that it will put forward any candidate for
the position. The coming man for
speaker will probably be selected from
some point farther west, Rawlins. per-
haps, and MIR. Gentry may be the man.

AT 3 o'clock in the afternoon the eoun-
Gil was again called to order and Temper
airy President Tescbemacher stated that
he understood the chief business before
the body was to proceed to effect a per-
manent organization. On motion the
council then proceeded to an election of a
permanent president. j. w. Blake, Esq,
of Albany county, was the unanimous
choice. On assuming he chair, to which
he was conducted by Messrs. Ford and
Delaney, appointed as a committee for
that purpose, Mr.. Blake proceeded to
say that he was deeply grateful to the
members of that body for the honor con-
ferred upon himself and his county by
the selection made, and that aside
from the questions affecting the
legality of the present legislature
there were other questions Of vital
Importance to be considered, and referred
to the work OF the late revision commits
sion and other matters of special import
ance TO the territory at large. Mr.. Blake's
speech was a very neat and appropriate
one, and at the conclusion he was greeted
with loud applause, not only from the
members OF the council but from those in
the lobby as well. The election of officers
was then resumed, with the following re-
suit:
Secretary, W. II. Hosford, of Laramie
county.
Sergeant-at-a arms, N. Il. Dowers, of

The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1886-02-20
IN nENTOREUM.

The subject of this sketch, Mrs. Mary (Pra-
teri Lyons, was born In st. Landry parish In
the year 1888, but was raised in Caleasieu.
She was married TO Mr.. Augustus Lyons, who
survives her, in the year 1854, and became
the mother of large and interesting family.
Mrs. Lyons health has Of late been unusually
good, with perhaps one or two light attacks,
and her death, which occurred on the morn
ing of the 18th inst, was quite unexpected.
Mr.. w. H. Prater, brother Of the de-
ceased with his wife, went on Wednesday
evening to visit his sister, and found her In
excellent spirits, and apparently In splendid
health. The first symptom he saw OF the
approaching collapse was when she raised
up from her chair to lay her pipe upon the
mantel, as she did this, he noticed that she
staggered as though suffering from vertigo,
at the same time she sat down. complaining
Of very strange feelings. Mr.. Prater assisted
her to the bed and went for a physician, and
when he returned, few moments later, she
was speeches., though rational, and In this
condition she remained from about five p.
m. until the next morning about O'Clock,
when her spirit quietly passed away.
A paFalytie stroke is perhaps what caused
her sudden demise. The husband was not
at home at the time of her death, being en-
gagged In assessing the parish, his friends did
not find him until Friday night about 8
O'Clock. The remains were not inferred until
after Mr.. Lyons reached home.
The deceased leaves a husband, four
daughters and two sons, besides her brothers
and sisters, and large number of more dis
tant relatives and friends to regret her de-
parture. While our deceased friend never
made q profession of religion, still she was
an amiable, lovely woman, possessing many
christian graces, and We feel assured that
our loss will be her gain.

Little Katie, whose short span of years was
one Of pain and suffering, through deplora-

scarcely more than baby is gone, to spend
an eternity Of Joy and peace in heaven.
Grieye not, bereaved mother, that He who
said Suffer the little ones to come unto me, y
has taken your darling from what must nee
essarily have been life of suffering, and
placed her among that shining band to whom
sickness and pain are unknown. You will
doubtless feel lonely, but she win not be
lonely. No, she will finish her minority
among happy playmates in brighter, hap
pier playground. And, oh think what q
welcome she would receive from all those
dear relatives who within the last two years
have passed away, the last of whom was that
little cousin who crossed the dark river only
a few weeks previously. Calm your grief,
sorrowing ones, and remember that death to
the young Is deliyerance from sorrow, and to
the aged, it is rest.
"0ne by one our loved ones leave us,
And we lay them low,
In the ground where brightest flowers
Der their graves may grow.

In Gods home above
Freed from toll and care and sorrow,
Sheltered by His love.
Zone by one, earth's weary children
Enter perfect rest
Lay their burden down, and slumber
Safe on Jesus breast.n
