Ferguson PAYS for His w~ssnIngton's
birthday Celebration.

The case of the city of Cheyenne vs.,
Robert Ferguson was tried before Judge
Lee yesterday afternoon, and attracted
considerable attention from the fact that
Governor Warren was one Of the main
witnesses in the case on the part Of the
prosecution. Ferguson was the chap who
on Washington's birthday knocked down
and severely bruised and kicked Frank
James in front of a saloon, and was made
to desist by Governor Warren, who hap
pened along there just as the melee was
at its height.
Neither the defendant nor the prosecu-
ton was represented by counsel Yesterday,
but the court did the questioning of the
witnesses, several of whom. including
Governor Warren were examined, but the
evidence was pretty much all the same
way, and was such as to satisfy the court
that the defendant was guilty of commit
ting at least a disturbance and breach of
the peace. Ferguson was therefore sem
fenced to pay a fine of $40 and costs,
which in all amounted to about $25. Fer
guson made an effort to raise the money
to pay the fine and costs, but without sue
cess, and was, therefore, committed to
the calaboose.

Early last evening an accident occurred
just south of the railroad track on Warren
avenue, by which Percy L. Smith, a
cousin of Mrs. Governor Warren. had his
collar bone and wrist OF his left arm
broken, sustaining also, it is feared, inter
nal injuries which may also prove serious.
He, at the time of the accident, was going
in an express wagon to deliver some fur
niture south of the track. and just as the
south side had been reached the horses
became frightened at an engine which
was passing along the track. They started
to run and in spite Of tile efforts of the
driver they got beyond his control. The
wagon was overturned and Mr., Smith
thrown violently to the ground with the
result above stated. The engine was
stopped and the engineer and fireman
both assisted in conveying Mr.. Smith TO
the Warren emporium. DIS. Quinby and
Wyman were at once summoned and his
injuries attended to, but it was thought
last evening that they were Of n very
serious character. No other damage Of a
serious nature occurred in consequence of
the runaway.

The following from last evenings Dem
yer Ners shows that Constable Ben
is several lengths ahead in the abduction
case of the woman Pauline CORTLAND:
Judge Rogers heard Mrs. Pauline
Courtland's application for a writ of
habeas corpus last evening and denied it.
Her attorney appealed from the decision
to the supreme court, and the appeal was
allowed in consideration of her filing a
bond for 81, 900 within twenty-four hour.
In the meantime Mrs. CORTLAND remains
in the hands of the sheriff.
From the foregoing it is safe to say that
our plucky constable will arrive in Chey-
enne with his prisoner this evening.
