Jail Here.
An All Around Tough.

Until last Saturday Jas. II. Colbert, a
laxative individual of gigantic proper
tions, was a private in one of the COM
panies stationed at Fort Russell. While
other people were specializing as to the
result of the Patterson trial, and congratu-
lating the stockmen on the advent of the
storm. Colbert violated the Sunday law
and filled himself with ~combative essence
on the Lords day.
The belligerant offered to do battle with
several understood men and confidently
remarked hat nothing short of a buzzsaw
or locomotive could halt him in his mad
career if once Infatuated. Failing to Sc
cure an opportunity to emulate the mighty
Sullivan, he was about to retire for the
night. In struggling with his final drink
he was joined, upon pressing invitation,
by a young gentleman who resides in
Omaha. Colbert paid for the refresh
ments, and the stranger placed a 800 bill
on the bar with the request that it be
changed. A few minutes later the equiv
alent for the Xxx was forthcoming. The
Omaha man, to escape the fumes of Col
bert's breath, had retired towards the
door, and before he could reach the bar
and his change the ex soldier appropriated
the pyramid of silver. He turned a deaf
ear to the entreaties of the injured party
and advice and threats of the bartender.
With an ~effrontery and assurance that was
simply pa%ralyzing. Colbert maintained
that he was the sole and rightful owner of
the component parts Of the Omaha gen.
tleman's $40 bill.
A lively scene was averted by the
timely appearance of a police officer, who,
despite the resistance o" the rioter, placed
him in the calaboose.
Yesterday morning Colbert was forced
to disgorge the 500 which he had stolen,
and was fined for both larceny and drunk
enness. He left the police court breath
ing vengeance against his enemies and as
sorting that he had not only been robbed,
but falsely imprisoned. Colbert carries
an honorable discharge from the army,
which sets forth that he is a Troublesome
soldier"

A woman of the town who e~lories in
the pet name of Smoky Liz" attempt
ed suicide at the Eighteenth street estab-
lishment of May West when the church
bells were ringing Sunday noon. 1t was
at first rumored that the amazon wished
to depart from the mundane sphere on
account of her inability to place an order
for an Easter bonnet. A careful ~investi-
patton traced the cause of the rash deed
to the inconsiderate action of one of the
captains at Fort Russell. The subaltern re-
fused to grant a leave of absence to a pr,
vate in his company. Lizzie's heart vas
broken, and fond hopes shattered by the
non-appearance of her boy in blue.
When the woman's precarious condi,
ton was discovered medical aid was sum
moned and the deadly drug removed from
the. locality in which it was conducting a
vigorous campaign. The dive in which the
attempted suicide occurred should be sup.
pressed. 1t is frequented by a low and
vicious element, white and black.

The famous Conried Opera mpan
will appear at the opera house Saturday
evening next in Johann Strauss latest and
most brilliant musical success, The Gypsy
Baron. The story Of this production is
based upon a series of romantic incidents
that bear such striking resemblance to the
actual occurrences Of life among the
Gypsles, and the region in which the
action lies, that they have all the interest
attached to well drawn characters Of a
later day romance.
With such a theme harmonized with
the music of Strauss master hand, the
work could not be otherwise than both
strong and beautiful. The great compos-!
er's individuality is marked in every line
of the score, particularly in the ingenious
waltz movements that are of frequent
occurrence. The company, taken as a
whole, presents the best comic opera en-
semble that any stage of this country ever
had. The cast includes such well known
artists as Louise Bianchi, Helen Won
Doenhoff, Lydia O'Neill, Jennie Refferth,
Sig. Taglieri, Jacques Kruger, Fred Ur-
ban, Gus f. Hall, Harold Leslie, together
with a picked chorus OF fifty voices, places
the production of The Gypsy Baron fore
most in the ranks OF light opera.
The stage settings of the first and sec.
ond acts are marvels OF stage mechanism.
Incidental to the last act is a grand march
by forty shapely hussars, which has won
hlgh enconiums from noted officers of the
National Guards.
The chorus is composed of bright faces,
fresh voices, symetrical limbs and all
the concomitants necessary to please the
eve as well as the ear are not wanting.
This magnificent organization is the most
complete and the largest presenting light
opera in America, numbering sixty people
on the stage and carrying a special carload
OF scenery.
This will be the musical event of the
season.

IN COR A STEEP.
A Young Man wiling TO siumber Three
DAYS.

About l o'clock yesterday morning
John Chase, a reporter for THE LEADER,
a New York drummer named Gum and
a couple more knights of the road were
standing in the Inter. Ocean office swap
ping lies about desperadoes and Indians.
Gum finally edged over towards the
clerks desk, asked for the key to his
room, and requested that he be called for
the 1890 a. m. Denver train. The pro-
prietor, to have a little quiet sport with
the New Yorker, informed him that on
account of the snow storm no trains
would leave Tor the south for three days.
Some men would have raved and cursed
and intimated that their employees were
blockheads. Not so with Philosopher
Gum. He glanced at the clock, tight
ened his grip on the room key, mildly ad-
vised the clerk to make his cali Thurs
day morning instead of Tuesday and
YEARLY wendell his way up stairs. As
the reporter did not meet Gum last night
it is fair to presume that he is still in bed.

h Patterson Jury sim Ballot
ing.

AT noon Yesterday the Pasterson jury
had been celebrating forty-eight hours
and a decision was's still in the dim future.
All sorts of rumor as to the situation
were circulated Yesterday and speculation
was rife. No one outside the jury room
can speak with any degree of certainty on
the subject, though a number of wiseacres
pretended to be certain that the twelve
men were about evenly divided, six pro-
posing to hang Patterson and the remain
der insisting that he be released. A num-
OF the curIons lowered about the court
room the entire day awaiting the verdict.
While en- route Il their
meals and during discussion
of the viands the Jurors
appeared on the best of terms, but in the
seelusion of their room at the court house
warm wordy bouts were of frequent occur
renee. Two notes were Transmitted to
Judge Maginnis, but the contents could
not be learned. To predict the result of
the siege is mere guess work and will not
be attempted here. In the light of very
recent events a disagreement would almost
equal an acquittal.
Patterson was nervous and restless all
day and chafed under his restraint, while
his wife was reported on the verge of
hysteria.
At 9;45 last night the Jurors retired to
their respective mattresses, stubborn as
ever.

A DISEASE.
A Young Man Dies Suddenly in the
Catholic Cathedral.

JAS Kerrigan, aged 81 years, dropped
dead in st. Mary's cathedral Sunday even
ing during the services. Heart disease
was the cause of the youths sudden de-
mise. He had at various times suffered
from the ailment, and upon several occa-
sions had been on the verge of dissolu=
ton. The church was we'll filed with the
devout when the young man fell from a
seat to the floor. His gasps and struggles
attracted the attention of the congrega-
ton, and for a few minutes there was a
scene Of wild confusion. The dying boy
was conveyed to the adjoining parsonage
by loving hands, but was beyond the aid
of physicians or ministerlng friends. He
expired in a very few minutes after the
attack.
Deceased is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jas. Kerrigan, old and respected citizens
of Cheyenne. Eight years ago they were
informed that the death of james might
be expected at any time. However, the
blow is none the less severe, as they had
commenced to hope that the vigorous
looking boy had ~outgrown the ailment.
Deceased was bright, Industrious, quiet
and of a retiring disposition. For some
time past he has been i%anitor of the SIS
ters' academy and has performed his
duties with fidelity. Many friends will
mourn the untimely death of the promis-
ing young man.
The funeral will take place at 10 o'clock
this morning from st. Mary's cathedral.

HOME RIGHTS.
Woman In the Household Useful as Well ~
Ornamental.


II is a fair-minded and entirely
reasonable conviction OF the distin.
guished author of "The Battle Hymn Of
the Republic" that the woman who Is
able TO earn from $500 to $4,000 or
$4,000 year should not be considered
as pecuniary cipher in the home. The
right sort Of woman puts into the home
administration, besides the charm and
affection which are beyond price, an
amount OF labor which can be approx.
imately estimated in money. II the
household is poor one, she serves 1t
with every muscle OF her body, and
with all the simple skill and wisdom
which she is able to acquire. II 1t is
wealthy one, she brings to it aesthetic
taste, economic management, the en-
largement OF hospitality, the graces of
the feminine mind and the feminine
presence.
The progress which women have
made in wage-earning ability brings
with it as a necessary result change
In their social standing and aspect.
They are no longer TO be considered as
a dependent class. The old view was
that they were supported. The modern
fact is that they support themselves,
and in many instances contribute TO the
support of others. The work which
they perform in their own households
is not to be considered as something
which they should be thankful TO do in
order TO have roof over their heads
and piece OF bread in their mouths,
but as service which, while elected
through affection, and glorified by it,
has also monetary value, in the de.
termination of which the husband and
wife should agree. To secure fair adj
justment OF financial relations between
husband and wife the man and woman
contemplating marriage must enter II
as equal sharers in the responsibilities
of their new condition and in the means
by which these responsibilities should
be met. They must have rational views
of the use Of money and OF the objecs
which money should be made TO for
ward and attain. - Detroit Free Press.
