A DEED OF TRUST.
John London Conveys His Property
to E. IN. Hall.
The Transfer Made to UntangIe g
Business SnarI.
Hall Instructed TO Sell Propert,
and Pay Debts.

John London. for many years post
trader at Fort Laramie and well known
throughout this section of the West. has
made an assignment in favor of his cred
itors.
Very little can be learned of the affair
here but a hasty perusal of the deed of
trust filed at the Office of the county clerk
yesterday warrants the statement that
the condition of things might be much
worse than set forth in the document. In
fact, it is believed that the residue re-
naming after the liquidation of all out
standing accounts will be sufficient to
still allow Mr.. London to utter a check
for quite a neat sum.
In the trust deed Eli NJ. Hall, said to
be Mr.. London's secretary is named as
party of the second part. In specific
terms he is instructed to dispose of the
property enumerated and apply the pro-
ceeds to the payment of certain debts.
Nearly all of the preferred creditors are
pOn-residents. Hal will devote his en-
tire time to the performance of the du-
ties made incumbent upon him by the
conditions of the deed.
A portion of the property listed is as
follows: Eighty-ive head of horses; the
Rustic hotel, grounds and outbuildings;
the Fort Laramie store and stock; q sa-
loon, billiard hall and stock and fixtures;
$73,474 in shares in the American cattle
trust pledged to the payment of a loan);
an assortment of carriages, wagons, farm
machinery and harness; a lot of cord
wood; several parcels Of land; a number
of fences and certain irrigating bitches.
Appended is a list of creditors whom
the trustee is instructed to satisfy:
Louise G. SIG, 767
Eliza W. Crowley, Wilmington,
Danl. S. Troy, Montgomery, Ala. $500
NJ. Driscoll, Fort Reno, L. IT,. 800
1t will be seen that no residents of the
territory will be affected by the assign
ment and it is hardly probable that MIR.
London's credit will be impaired to any
extent.
Mr.. London will doubtless continue
business at the old stand and all Join
THE LEADER in wishing that his embar-
rassment may be of very short duration.
The gentleman is a very enterprising citi-
zen and has done much to further the in
terests and hasten the development of the
section of the territory in which he re-
sides. He has erected substantial build
ings, constructed ~irrigating bitches, placed
blooded cattle on the ranges and contrib
uted literally to the public welfare.

OBITUARY.
The Father of J.. j. NaIrn Dies in Ayl-
mer, Canada.

Thos. Macintyre Marin, Esq, NJ. P. p,
father of J. j. Marin of this dity, died at
Aylmer, Ont, Canada, June l, of heart
disease. In speaking of his demise the
Aylmer Sun says:
THE news of the death of our esteemed
citizen has cast a gloom over the commun-
ity which time alone can efface. He was
a kind and indulgent father, a loving hus-
band, upright in his actions in both pub
lie and private life. He leaves behind him
Mrs. Marin, whom he married in 1854,
and five children"
Deceased was a resident of Alymer
thirty-seven years and has led a public
life since 1858, holding many places of
trust within the gift of the people. At
the time of his death he was q member of
the Ontario legislature.
Between 5000 and 5000 people fol-
lowed the remains of deceased to the
cemetery and the funeral cortege was the
most imposing ever seen in that section
Of Canada. Fully a score of secret So
cieties formed a portion Of the cortege
and half a dozen special trains carried
mouners to Aylmer on the day of the
funeral. The home paper contains a
splendid eulogy of deceased.
Chcyenne's Mr.. Marin, who by the
way is a very promising young man, was
fortunate in having such a father and his
friends sympathize with him in this Attic

A Pottery.

A project to establish pottery works at
this point is now well nnder way. The
feasibility of establishing such an enter
prise here has been carefully canvassed
and those interested are well satisfied with
the result of the investigation. Fine fire
clay, second to none in the United States,
exists near Cheyenne and there is an i'm
mense deposit of the commodity. One
gentleman has offered to place a building
and grounds at the disposal ola company
and accept a low consideration for the
property in stock.
With this fire clay anything in this line
from fine crockery to brick can be manu-
featured. At the next meeting of the
board of trade Prof. Fred. j. Stanton will
submit a report on the fire clay.

ANOTHER STREAM.
The Undercurrent of Crow Creek
Captured.
1t is Pure Water and the Supply In
exhadstibIe.
Result of the Work of the Special
Water Committee.

The quality of the fluid furnished pa
irons OF the Cheyenne water system is
soon to be greatly improved and expert
ments recently made at the city dam
demonstrate the fact that the supply of
the cool, clear and pure beverage is sim
ply in~exhaustable.
This new order of things is brought
about by the persistent efforts of the
special water committee, counselled by
imported experts.
The superintendent of the Denver
water system, Mr.. Allen, was brought
here at a triaing expense and rendered
valuable service gratis. He advised the
anxious Cheyenneites to simply retain the
water which was lost by seepage, assur-
ring them that this plan had been very
successfully adopted in several instances
which had come within his observation.
Mr.. Aliens suggestions were adopted
and his instructions followed to the letter
with most satisfactory results. The aston
ishing discovery that an imperfect system
has caused the belief that the water
supply was liable to become inadequate at
no distant day to prevail, much to the
detriment of the town. This groundless
opinion has delayed the launching of sew
eral large enterprises.
Wells we're driven to bed rock in the
creek and the sparkling undercurrent
tapped and placed under the control of
man. At one of these wells a force pump
has been operated for the past five days
and the bed rock stream found to exceed
in volume the creek itself. The pump
discharged 500 gallons per minute and
has thrown a six-inch stream without
cessation during the past five days, or for
100 hours. The water in a dam above
the well has not fallen enough to be per-
ceptible.
A number of councilmen and others
visited the scene of operations yesterday
while the task OF attempting to exhaust
the u%ndercurrent was in progress. They
are convinced that the new supply cannot
be equalled in the west. The water hasno
yet been analysed, but it looks and tastes
exactly like the outflow of the famous
springs near Granite Canyon.
The city will at once avail itself of this
splendid submerged stream. A line of
wooden pipe will be laid to one of the
bed rock wells and an extensive excavation
ton made. Estimates for the work have
been made and bids solicited. The cost
will not be nearly SO heavy as one would
imagine.
This latest discovery is Of vast i'm
p~ortapce to all and will benefit the city be-
yond conjecture. While the present sup
| ply is sufficient for the needs of nearly
double the population Of Cheyenne the
quality is not quite up to the standard, and
it might not be equal to every emergency.
| With this newly discovered stream flowing
into the city mains the supply will be
equal to that of Denver. Benefit will also
accrue IN other directions. The city's
right to the waters of the creek remains
the same, but the increased capacity of
the stream will allow much more water to
be used for irrigating purposes.

Room at the Top.

Last Saturday heard young man
make some pretty pointed remarks
about getting "to the top" that place
represented as being SO very -roomy.
1T does rot seem to matter, he re-
marked. "whsther ] work my best and
never take my nose of the grindstone,
or whether / take things easy and get
along without so much hard work" 1t
Is pretty evident that this young man
will not get to the top right away, and
a pointer or two may help him.
Let the man imagine as far as he can
how the matter ould seem were he at
the top and had charge of everything.
From this point OF view let the situa-
ton be studied, and notes be made
how a young man should conduct him
self if the young man does not see
things in a different light, then / viii
lie mistaken. 1t will be good lesson,
and if learned will go far TO enable the
young man in question to advance him
self a good distance toward the top

A Gambling Empress.

In little book recently issued "for
ladies DESTROYS of learning poker is the
following curious anecdote: Maria Their
esa of Austria was greatly addicted to
gambling, and played for exceedingly
high stakes. The court fnnctionaries
did all in their power to overcome this
passion, but to no purpose. They
finally appealed to the Empress con-
lessor, who induced the Imperial game
ster not to give mp cards, but to play for
only copper kreutzer a point. The
cunning Empress, however, ordered her
ieweler to make her one hundred kreut-
rers in peculiar manner, so that each
one could be opened in the middle and
a ducat inserted. The two piec were
put together SO that only the initiated
knew that they were not what they
seemed. Thus the Empress kept the
letter OF the confessor's demand, and at
the same time enjoyed the excitement in
which she delighted.

Bismarck in the Reiclstag.

"The great Boww WOW, MS Bismarck
is irreverently called in German parlia-
mentary circles, shows himself IN the
Reichstag only when he has something
important to say. Then he enters the
House Immediately before his time for
speaking comes round, and leaves it as
soon as he has said what he wishes to
say. Though the chancellor tries to
keep his intention to speak close sec
ret, the fact leaks out, and the crowded
assembly-hall shows that neither the
Reichstag nor Berlin mas been taken un-
nwares. Those who attend know that the
chancellor is not far away when they see
his well-known portfolio and great lead
pencil deposited upon the front minis
terial bench. On entering the hall, Bis
marce goes at once 10 his place, opens
the portfolio, takes from it sheets of
notes and bundle of newspapers and
cuttings, nrranges them with care, and
then chats with his colleagues. 1.-The
gift of eloquence," he once said, "has
done much mischief in parliamentary
life. Oratory is waste of time; let us
restrict ourselves to statements of facts

porters to follow him. He adopts
semi. conversational style, begins slowly
and monotonously, and, with the excep-
tion of casual breaks, proceeds and ends
as he begins. As the chancellor's tongue
annot keep pace with his thoughts, he
now and then breaks OFF in the middle
of sentence, and takes up q new
thought, leaving his hearers to make
tho best they can of his half-finished
sentences. The chancellor never de-
claims, never hatters, nor equivocates.
His official position causes the Reichstag
10 treasure up his utterances, but he
does not disdain to aid them by apt
quotations, forcible SMILES. and witty
illusions. Though he once lectured the
Prussian Parliament on the uselessness
Of verbosity, the chancellor usually
speaks one hour. and has exceeded even
two hours. He speaks extempore,
though the heads of his speech and the
newspaper quotations are carefully
noted on sheets Of paper. Bismarck's
speeches are full of weighty words and
proyerbial philosophy.
