EDITORS HERALD: 1t is seldom indeed
that city of eighty thousand people car
boast of being honored with SO many
artists of one sort or other as seem to de-
light in focking to Los Angeles. There
appears but one way of accounting fol
this, and that is the climate and natura
scenery of this city and the surrounding
country and the refined tastes and cult
waited faculties Of the people of the
section.
Among the latest arrivals Of the class
referred to is singer noted on bott
hemispheres for the purity and sweetness
of his voice, and also for the perfect
method with which he uses an unusually
fine tenor organ. The person in mind
is Signor Modini, a pupil of the
far-famed Lamperti OF Milan. Signor Mo
dini is in Los Angeles for his health, and
the musical portion OF the city who have
made the acquaintance of this gentleman
and who have heard him sing, hope earn
estly that he may find the climate SC
beneficial that may be led to make this
his home for the future.

The following communication in re the
Elysian Park-Pest House embraglio was
sent yesterday afternoon by Mayor
Workman to City Attorney DAILY. It is
self explanatory-Mr DAILY being asked
the question whether the city can legally
use lands it has dedicated to park pur.
poses for other purposes.
j. c. DAILY, City Attorney.
DEAR SIR:-Has, in your opinion, the City
Council the power to set apart of any otbel
purpose, any portion Of the lands specified in
the dedication for public park as embraced in
Ordinance No. 21S. and, also, from the fact that
the lands, as set aside, having never been used
for the purpose herein named, is not the dedi
cation incomplete and for this reason is it still
within the province of the Council to use
portion of this land for city purposes?
W. H.lWoRKNAN, Mayor

probably not be responded to until Mon.

ONLY PAPER.
An Attempt to Swindie a Cheyenne Man
With a Check.

The average Cheyenneite is, speaking
after the amer of men, up to snuff. The
thermometer indicates a temperature in
the vicinity of the freezing point when he
becomes the victim of his fellowman.
The above is PREDATORY to the relation of
an incident illustrating the truth of the
observation.
Some time since Col. A. s. Emery
closed his Sixteenth street saloon and re-
tired from the liquor business. A large
quantity of the merchandise handled in
the liquid refreshment business remained,
and the colonel offered the goods at pri-
vate sale.
One Rosebummel, a prepossessing
young nan attired in a killing spring suit,
was the first bidder. He selected $500
worth of the stock and rendered a $3.50
check in payment. remarking that Mr..
Emery could draw an order on his banker
for the change. Mr.. Emery declined,
and Rosebummel promised to be on hand
with the hard cash and close the bargain
the following day.
He did not keep the appointment.
Perhaps he imagined hat his honesty
had been questioned.
Several days later the colonel CHANGED
upon the would-be buyer again. Rose
bummel was not abashed.. He remarked
that he was even then en- route to Nh.
Emery's office to close the deal.
MIR. Emery followed Rosebummel to
the depot and as he did not return from
that place concludes that the $3.50 check
is now doing service elsewhere.

An Evening in Laughter.

Despite the inclement weather a large
audience greeted T. j. Farron and his ex-
cellent company in Soap Bubble at the
opera house last evening. The "V. l..
Chops" of Farron was rendered in the
inimitable style he alone possesses. The
acting of Ed. j. Connolly was good, he at
times dividing honors with the star. Miss
Virginia Ross fine singing made her q
favorite at once, and Dolly Foster and
Florence German were well received.
The applause was frequent and hearty
and the actors must have been pleased
with the fun they produced.
The play is light and plotless, but salts
fcs all. There is a great deal Of music in
the comedy and all members of the com-
pany are capital vocalists. Soap Bubble
is invited to call again.
The famous Dockstader's MINISTRIES are
announced for next Monday.

/" KELLY Is GONE"
Mysterious Disappearance of a
Citizen.
What the Mans Wife Says Abou
His Absence.
Usually Steady, and Missing Sinc'
Thursday.

There we're rumors of a mysterious dis
appearance on the streets yesterday. 1t
was said that the haunts and gin mills
which formerly knew the healthy %janitor
of a large business block knew him no
more. The gossipers declared that John
Kelly, for four years coachman for a resi-
dent of the East End and later acting
proprietor of the Cheyenne National
bank building, had been spirited away
and was probably being held for a ran
som.
They excitedly informed a reporter that
the police had secured the streets for the
lost man. They failed to explain the con-
nection between the securing of the streets
and the absence of Kelly and were even
unable to tell why Kelly desired the streets
secured or what induced the officers to de-
scend to labor. They simply remarked
impressively that ":the police have secured
the streets for him."
The LEADERS, Hawkshaw reporter de-
termined to sift the matter to the bottom
and lay the facts before an expectant
public.
This journals representative learned
that the wife of the missing man resided
in Dare castle on Ferguson street, and
attired i'll a rubber coat and the remain
der of his working costume called upon
the lady last evening.
The object of the visit preached, Mrs.
Kelly. who by the way, is a good looking
little Irishwoman, conversed quite readily
on the subject.
kelly is gone" she said. Il dislike
to speak i'll of my husband, but to tell the
truth he had been drinking. He came
home last Thursday and after remaining
a short time said he would leave forever.
He had made this threat before and l
paid no attention to him.
Although he has been absent since
last Thursday and several of my friends
have searched for him l am not alarmed
for his safety. No one can convince NE
that he isn't still in town. Kelly is not
the man to desert his wife and
two children. l am snre he will
will return some time. AT all events l
am well able to care for the children and
myself. l have accepted a situation on a
ranch, and leave the city in the morning.
Kelly was to have worked at the same
place and may yet return in time to go
with me. L am sure hat he will come
back"
1t will readily be seen that Mrs. Kelly
has explicit confidence in her liege lords
ability to care for himself and would will
ingly underwrite him without limit. This
view of the matter is not taken by all of
the mans acquaintance. Several ex-
press the opinion that he has doubtless
wandered away and met with an accident
of some sort.

A Taxpayers Protest.

To the Editor ofThe Leader.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 22,-Since the
question has been preached and your con-
temporaries have presented to the public
some communications concerning Lake
Minnehaha, l desire as a taxpayer and
the representative of others, to add my
remonstrance against an act, which if ac'
complished would not alone be a most
vicious piece of legislation, bat what
would be termed in any other town or
city, cherishing its hallowed spots, a case
of vandalism of the worst type. Have
the fathers and mothers of this town, SO
far forgotten the scenes of their youth,
forgotten the sports that were made dear
to them by their parents, that they are
willing to stand back to day, and see
their children robbed of what has been
and what can be made, the most attrac-
tive spot our town possesses. Fathers be
careful; those who are rich can go away,
and make other homes in more attractive
communities, but those who have their
little all here have got to stay and fight
the battle of life here; their children
have to do the same, and how will those
children regard the generation before
them, when they look back and see the
ruin their fathers accomplished for a few
paltry dollars. 1t is argued that Lake
Minnehaha cannot be kept filed. Why2
Because the effort Is lacking, save on the
part of one of our worthy councilmen,
who did what little he could last winter to
run water into the lake. Now why do we
read morning after morning in our papers
Of their being water enough in Crow
creek to supply a city of one hundred
thousand inhabitants, and yet enough
cannot be spared to supply a little sheet
of water like Minnehaha. Again, what
good could be derived by the city in
draining the lake and selling the lots.
Cheyenne boasts of her wealth to-day,
and if such be her state, does she be-
grudge the few blocks necessary to make
a beautiful lake and park for her heirs?
l cannot believe she has reached this mig
gardly state.
Look at New York, with her great
park and lake directly in the heart of the
great metropolis. covering an area of two
miles long by one wide. This park was
once a wilderness, but look at 1t to-day.
The children of New York to-day rise up
and call their fathers and forefathers
blessed for the heirloom that has descend
ed to them. And l say. people of Chey-
enne, your children will do the same if
you preserve to them hat beautiful lake
in the eastern portion of your town.
Don't listen to the spectators; don't
listen to the obstructionist and chronic
directors, but go in and say we will make
Minnehaha what it should be. and in your
old age and when your children have
reached womanhood and manhood you
will have an inheritance you will be proud
to hand down to them. TAXPAYER.

CURED Saturday evening and that consid-
cradle money had changed hands on the

The writer promised to say nothing
about a key of beer which figured in a So
