A, General Harrison's Home.

Gensral Harrison spent the day yesterday at
bis residence with his family, and such callers
as CHANGED to drop in for few mements CONVEX
saiion and word of congratulation. The re-
turns. as soon IS they arrived, were wired TO
the Generals library, which has been converted
into temporary telegraph Office for the express
benefit of himself and family. and along with
them came many kilograms of congratulatory
and encouraging nature. One from Chauncy NJ

RATES OF
DO AWAY WITH BoUNTIEs.

The council has done well in unani-
mously passing a bill to repeal the statute
which now provides for the payment of
bounties out Of the several county treasu-
ries for the destruction Of wolves or
coyotes, wildcats, ~lynxcs, bears, mountain
lions, badgers, ground squirrels, prairie
dogs and gophers. This bill has been re-
ferred to a committee in the house, and
we hope the action of the latter body will
be a quick and sweeping as that taken in
the council.
There is no doubt in the mind of any
body as to the ACCESSIBILITY of repeating
the section which relates to gophers,
ground squirrels, badgers and prairie
dogs. 1t has cost this county at least
$1,000 in bounties paid on these animals,
while several other counties, notably Car
bon, have been driven into a condition
bordering on desperation and bankruptcy.
Not the least practical benefit has resulted
to anyone except the gopher hunters from
this work of determination, and even
they might have been employed to better
advantage.
The other animals no longer give much
trouble and the damage which they inflict
is exceedingly limited. They will be de-
stroyed whenever possible as a matter of
%precaution regardless of bounty. At this
time when the disposition appears to beto
curtail even the legitimate expenses, 1t
would be exceedingly proper to start well
by Topping off this extravagant and un-
necessary ource Of expense.

THE BLIZZARD,s WORK.

The blizzard throughout Nebraska, Da-
kota, Montana, Kansas and Colorado last
week gave the railroads more trouble
than they have ever experienced in so
short a time before. On some of the
lines it has been difficult u find men
nervY enough to operate trains on account
of the perils and dangers e~ugendered in
making trips. Reports received at head
quarters, says the Omaha Republican, in
dictated that some of the brakemen who
were with trains last Thursday night,
Friday, Saturday and Sunday suffered
more hardships han they have ever been
called upon to endure. In some in
stances these reports say they aban-
doned their trains and took to the caboose
in order to avoid the horrible fate of
freezing to death. The exposure at many
places was simply dreadful. Engineers
who attempted to attend to their duty
were compelled TO climb along narrow, ice
covered footboards, aud the unfortunate
brakeman had even a worse task every
time he undertook the work Of running
along the slippery top of a train to answer
the call of down brakes" The cases of
frozen hands and frosted feet are almost
innumerablo. All accounts say that the
snow is of unprecedented depth and it
was found necessary to abandon both
freight and passenger trains. For nearly
three days not a wheel could be moved
on the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Val
ley road. The same was also rue Of
Union Pacific, Burlington Il Missouri
and Missouri Pacific branch lines, both in
Nebraska and Kansas. But by persistent
work with snow plows tracks have been
cleared and all trains are on the move
again.

THE LATEST CONTRIBUTION.

The passenger business on the Chey-
enne & Burlington will be opened up in
fine shape tomorrow. This route will
give direct connection with Omaha, Chi
cago, Peoria and Kansas city. Leaving
here at s o'clock in the evening the pass
enger is landed without change of cars in
Chicago at S o'clock on the second morn
ing. This latest move on the part of the
Burlington marks an new era in the city's
history. All events point to the conclu-
sion that we are on the verge of a season
of prosperity, and to this much desired
result We will all acknowledge That the
Burlington has contributed nightly.
The great need OF this town for the
past ear has been backbone. The dis
position to crawl into a hole has been alto
gether too general and, to put the matter
plainly, We have not always faced the
music as we should have done. There
should be a regeneration all along the
line. Let the doubters devote a little less
time to doubling and a little more to read
ing the signs of the times. They all point
in the direction of prosperity and growth.
Cheyenne is bound to be one OF the,most
important towns in the Rocky mountain
region. Nothing can stop its growth,
though the people themselves by their
" timorous action may retard it.
Take this for a pointer: Next season
business will prove a revelation to the
near sighted.

''HARD TIMES.D


During the absence OF Mrs. Nealon
from her residence near the corner of
Twenty-fourth and Dillon streets, Wed
ncsday afternoon thieves entered the
house and carried away all valuables in
sight.
Among the articles lost were a valuable
breastpin, a shirt stud and a revolver, the
two latter articles once the property of her
deceased husband. AS the lady was alb
sent several hours the depredators were
given an opportunity to search the prem
ises quite thoroughly. They evidently
examined each room carefully, as every
receptacle in the house had been rum
mayed. Mrs. Nealon feels the loss quite
keenly and there Is at present no prospect
of the recovery of the stolen articles.
With a courtesy and tonch of irony
quite uncommon among the fraternity,
the trespassers left a note, an apology for
their visit and abstraction of the prop
erty. The communication was very brief
and furnished no clue to assist in the APP
prehension of the burglars. On a sheet
Of paper, placed where it could not be
overlooked, was written in a legible hand
the tersc sentence, Hard times" What
delicacy! What brevityl An abiect and
eloquent apology, a confession, a justifca-
ton and a sOnowful and unwilling con-
fession in two syllables. What a glorious
chance for speculation is offered by a pc
rusal Of one of the shortest messages ever
written. Perhaps the thieves were in
straitencd circumstances, and their only
prospects were to starve, steal or accept
the hospitality of the city. Finally, they
may have been hardened criminals, and
as a reproof to people who do not deposit
their valuables in safe places, derisiyely
left the wonderful warning.
