$4,000 REWARD.
A Description of Tascott, the Much
Hunted Murderer.

There is wandering about some section
of this footstool a man on whose head has
been set the price of $50. 900, and prob.
ably ten times that amount has already
been expended in his pursuit.
The fugitive is VIM. B. Tascott alias
7. B. Gathright, Moore, Scott. Clark and
Dixon. He is the supposed murderer of
Millionaire Smell of Chicago, who was
mysteriously killed the night of Feb. 8.
The widow of Tascott's victim posted a
$40, 900 reward, good for sixty days,
! Sept. II.
Tascott is 20 to % years of age, 5 feet
s or 9 inches high, $50 pounds in weight,
slim built, very erect, full round face,
heavy eyebrows, very small dark mus
tache. He is quite young looking. His
upper front teeth show gold filling, a line
or surface of gold extending along the
edge of the two upper front teeth, the
filling seems to be from the interior sur
face, extending out to the ends of the
teeth, showing che line or surface along
the edge as stated, and is quite prominent,
the upper lip being drawn back showing
the teeth quite plainly, 1.-THE matter of the
teeth and the filling is quite noticeable, }
lower jaw receding. He generally has
his hands in his pockets and has the air
Of a loafer or a person withot any partic-
ular business or object in view. He is
rather good looking, his cheeks are red,
and there is nothing about his appearance
which would create suspicion of his being
a criminal. Shot in right hip, scars on
right leg, knee and both elbows. Claims
to be a newspaper reporter. Is also said
to be an expert pool player, and will fire.
quent pool rooms. He converses about
his travels through the country freely.
The hunted man is just as liable to be
in Wyoming as elsewhere. Be on the
lookout for him.

Baltimore society queen called the Mary

title of Mrs. O'Sullivan Dimppel, is
handsome, can act some and is consid-
erably stage struck.

For Temperance.

Mai. G. w. Poole, a noted temperance
worker, is in the city, accompanied by his
wife, and will remain for some time. He
is an earnest worker for the cause, but is
not of the rabid stripe. He does not be-
lieve that every saloon keeper is a mon
ster and every drinking man a misguided
fool. On this account he has been quite
successful in his chosen field and will
doubtless accomplish much good in Chey-
enne if he opens a campaign here.

A Healthy YearIinp.

The Laramie county library was Just
one year old yesterday and a description
of what the people didn't do in honor of
the first anniversary of the great i%nstitu-
ton would fill several volumes. This was
not because it is not fully appreciated,
however. 1t has been a success and a
public benefit from its inception and is
patronized more extensively than one
would think. An average Of seventy-fve
books have been loaned each library day.
There have been no losses and new works
are placed on the shelves quite often.
