PAYING BETS.
Lucky Harrison Men wheeled by DEM
Ocrats.

If the Republican managers were
keen in devising methods or quick to grasp
opportunities for advertising they would
have persuaded the wheelbarrow paraders
of yesterday and last evening to postpone
settlement of their wagers for twenty four
hours and had them march at the head of
the Republican procession this evening.
1t would have been a great card for the
victorious cohorts-approprlate, suggest
i've and likewise OF a moral character,
something in tie nature of a frightfuf
example.
The first admirer of glorious Grover to
do the amende honorable was Tom Bryan
of the Pacific Express company, who
wheeled Bill Hall, another employe of the
common carrier, from the capitol building
to the depot yesterday afternoon.
The vehicle was a small wheeled truck,
which led some onlookers to perpetrate
some miserable puns anent the truck bill,
aver applying that appellation to Hall,
who, by the way, had much the better of
it in this instance. He rested frequently,
but succeeded in making Bryan uncom-
Portable while in motion.
John w. Griffin, the solid ex-alderman,
mine host at the Metropolitan, and broad
shouldered, smiling George Miller, of
the Germania, made a stunning team as
they pushed barrows around the streets

man, the well.known Union Pacific brake
man, and John Morgan, spiritualist at
Cass Bessler's Board of Trade saloon.
The parade was led, or, rather,
the parties to the wager were
surrounded by the splendid 18th in
fantry band, which discoursed stirring
martial music all along the line. They
did the thing up in style, and were fol.
lowed by an enormous crowd of men and
boys who seemed to enjoy the event huge
ly. The national colors were freely dis
played. fireworks were set off, and the
novel procession was greeted with cheers
at every corner.
Rather serious was the notable wheel
barrow bet at Laramie. Yesterday morn
ing VIM. G. Wilson, Jr., entered upon
the task of wheeling Dave Donovan from
the Gem City to Sherman, or the summit
of the hill" and return. Train men
who arrived here last night reported that
the party, all in good spirits, had camped
at Red Desert for the night. Wilson,
Laramie's ex drug man, was suffering
from bliDtered hands and sore feet, but
Engineer Donovan was jollier than usual,
which is saying a great deal. The dis
lance to be ~traversed by the pair is forty
six miles.

Frank Daniels in Little Puck.v

There was a liberal display Of shapely
limbs, much genuine melody and any
amour of clever comedy PRESERVATION al
the opera house last evening on the occa'
sion OF the production of Little Puck by
the inimitable Frank Danisls and his com,
petent company, headed by the charming
and petite Miss Bessie Samson.
Little Puck. unlike the comedy of the
hour, boasts of a plot, an ambitious one,
too, being nothing less than an artistically
constructed travesty on DR.. JekvU ana
Mr.. Hyde, but as unlike Steyenson's
wierd tale as the heroes themselves.

where the outfit will be divided into two
corps and work east and west from the
military reservation over against Douglas,
the metropolis Of Central Wyoming.
Whether or not this corporation really
means business it is difficult to say. The
head and front of the concern is VIM. d.
Negus, capitalist and Spectator, a keen
business man, who seems to have unlim
tied cash at his command. Officials of RI
val lines heve declared that Nepus is a
right of way shark, but he continues to
operate and keep his own counsel. Last
summer he had several grading outfits
preparing roadbed in the Sweetwater val
ley, miles and miles from any evidence of
an approaching line. IF he is in earnest,
and his every action indicates that he is,
so much the better for Wyoming, for if
there is anything that this territory needs
badly it is more railways, and the more
the merrier. If Negus is simply specu.
lating-perish the thought-it is not bad
thing for this people. Other cor
p%orations, selfish companies which have
been blind to the attractions of the coun-
try because they would not see, will be
stimulated to activity and will buy Out OF

every prospect of tho undertaking being carried

will shortly issue. The concessionary rights do not
include any Government guarantee TO the company;
