THE TRAP.

II TRAP.
Sundays shooting match between At
torney General Councilman and John
Schuneman. two of the crack shots Of
the city, verified the predictions of the
latter gentleman's admirers. The condi,
tons of the match were that Councilman
was to shoot at fifty and Slhuneman at
forty live birds, Nottingham rules,
The match was not shot out, Mr.. DON
zelman acknowledging defeat after killing
twenty five bros out of forty-six- Schu-
neman had put an end to thirty one out
of thirty-eight sprung.
Hon. A. Fl. Reel was referee, and Mr..
Hedrick, the Wells Fargo express agent,
did the scoring. Tile weather was fair,
although a trife too breezy towards the
close. There was a large attendance of
enthusiastic sports.
After the match of the day several
sweepstakes were arranged. In the first
there were twelve entries. First money
was divided by Bergersen and Yelling
ton; second by Hughes, Dolan, Vallery.
Channel, Boehme. In the second match

Dolan, East. Wellington and Hughes
divided second money. The third match
was three birds each.
The scores were: Schuneman 3, Wei
lington 3, East ., Channel ?, Bergersen
3, Vallery 3, Dolan 3. In the other
sweepstakes there were FIVE birds each
and the winners Of first money killed all.
WHEELING.
Sunday was a glorious day for a run on
the smooth, hard roads hereabouts and
many of the wheelmen were out. The
breeze in the afternoon was a stiff one to
face, but with it at ones back speed could
be accelerated to a merry clip without an
effort. The f~avorite run was along the
boulevard to the fort, back through the
camp aud along the west side of the fair
grounds. Here is a stretch equalled by
but few tracks in the country. From the
west entrance to the fair grounds to the
head of Twentieth street is a straight mile
as hard and smooth as aphalt.
BASE BALL.
Two picked mines played a game of ball
on the south side grounds Sunday. The
boys propose to practice industriously and
will be u every fair day. League or no
Cheyenne will have a good team
in the field this season.

Another Railway for Wyoming In
C~orporated.
The Burlington En- Route to the
Crook Coal Field.
A Portion of the Line to be a
Route to the Coast.

The Grand Island & Northern Wyom-
ing Railway company, a corporation or
ganized by officers OF the Burlington sys-
tenn, filed its certificate Of Incorporation
at the office of the territorial secretary
yesterday.
This company purposes to construct
and maintain a line of railway in Wyom-
ing from a point on the eastern boundary
line OF the territory, about seventy five
north of Fort Laramie, in a general north
westerly direction through the counties of
Converse and crook to the northern
boundary line of Wyoming; together with
such branch lines in Converse, Crook.
Laramie. johnson, Albany, Carbon,
Sweetwater, Fremont, Sheridan, Natrona
and Ulnta counties as may hereafter be
determined upon by the directors, who
are G. w. Holdrege, J. e. Taylor, G.
D. Dorman, VIM. A. Higgins and c. j.
Greene. The capital stock of the com
pany is placed at Sc, 900, 900.
The principal Office and place of bust
ness of the company in Wyoming has
been designated as at Cheyenne.
The Grand Island & Northern Wyo-
ming railway, THE LEADER learns is an
extension of the Alliance, Neb., branch
and is being built with the primary object
of tapping the great coal beds and oil
fields of Crook county. The road, by
following the route indicated in its articles
of incorporation will traverse some of the
choicest territory of favored Wyoming.
For years the Burlington has had a
watchful eye on Wyoming. Its agents
have familarized themselves. with its
status, our and prospects and many
of the largest stockholders in the enter
prislng corporation are largely interested
in the territory.
1t is now certain that the terminus OF
the Cheyenne & Northern will oon cease
to be in this city. The line will doubtless
be extended to the north and west and in
time connect with the northern route.
The Grand Island & Northern Wyo-
ming is the starter for a line which
is to give the Burlington a
thorough line to the coast. 1t
is not more than thirty days
ago hat a Burlington official high in
authority informed a LEADER representa-
tive that the road would be extended to
Portland, and that the Burlington would
be one OF the great transcontinental
lines.
But what of the Cheyenne line?" was
asked.
1T won't stick up in the air like a sore
thumb here much longer. The company
IS enamored Of the town and will make it
Western headquarters, but is very desir-
GUS OF touching other portions of the ter
ritory. 1t is an impression in some quar-
tiers that the Burlington is anxIous to
touch the Black Hills. Such is not the
case, Wyoming is plenty good enough
for us, and there will be several Burling-
ton lines in the territory much sooner
than most people think"
1t is morally certain that the Burling-
ton is en- route to Portland, and equally
certain hat it will not overlook Wyo-
ming.

A SECOND ROUTE.
Burlington Postal Route Extended
to Cheyenne.
E. Dickinson Acting as Assistant
General Manager.
The U. P. Reaching Out to Montana
and the Coast.

Cheyenne now has two mail routes
carrying postal matter to the east direct.
Service over the Burlington was in
augurated yesterday. Two mail clerks
occupied a car which left for the east at
s O'Clock last evening and two others
manned a car reached the city at 1925 p.
M. The new mail line is made by
an extension of the Cheyenne 4 Bur
lington route from Sterling, Colo, to this
city. The extension fills a grevious need
and will afford Cheyenne and their pat
rons along the Burlington much better
facilities for trading.
REPORT 70 DICKINSON.
Bulletins have been issued from Union
Pacific headquarters instructing division
superintendent east of Cheyennet to report
TO Mr.. Dickinson. This looks very much as
though Mr.. Dickinson, whom many pa
pers have exultingly announced as "in
the soup" was in a fair way to be re-
stored to power by being given the assist
ant general managership now held by Mr..
Mellen.
EN- ROUTE TO MONTANA.
Chief Gibson and a corps of fourteen
Union Pacific field surveyors came up
from Denver last evening and continued
westward. Mr.. Gibson, who aided in the
construction of the Cheyenne & Northern
and is acquainted with many Cheyenne
people, stated to a reporter that he and
his men had been surveying on snow
shoes in Colorado for the past three
weeks, but had been ordered to Montana
a few days since,
NEW COAST LINE.
A new railroad rumor has been pub
hshed. 1t is to the effect that the sur
veying party that has recently been at
work west of here, and doing much work
between Ogden and the coast, was a
corps in the employ of a New York synd-
icate, including Sidney Dillon and Fred
Ames. 1t is said that the syndicate has
in view the construction of a line of road
between Salt Lake City and Los Angeles.
1t will be called the Pacific short line and
will be almost a direct route between the
two points mentioned. 1t will traverse
Nevada, Utah and Southern California.
The air line distance is $50 miles.
While it is stated that this road is en-
tirely independent of the other transconti-
mental lines, it is generally conceded that
it is a project of the Union Pacific or the
Burlington and is to be built to get a foot
hold on the traffic that for the reason of
there being no direct competition goes
to the Southern Pacific and the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe. With a northeast
ern terminus in close proximity TO the
city OF Ogden, the actual terminus Of the
Union Pacific proper, it has led railway
men to believe hat the connecting link of
but a few miles between Salt Lake City
and Ogden will be built and the Union
Pacific will then have a monopoly on the
coast traffic.
The projectors of the Wyoming 4 East
ern have said that when completed their
route will be called the Pacific Short Line.

9Re RouseRoTd.

Mrs. Anah 0. Flack, of Bound
Brook, N. j., sends these excellent
recipes:
"To Preserve Watermelon Rind.-
Cut the outside off and trim the in
side. Cut in fancy shapes. Boil in
water until tender enough to run a
broom sprint through. Make a syrup
OF three-quarters of pound of sugar
to one pound of melon and cook all
together for a few minutes.
"Baking Powder for Johns wife
of Peekskill, N. Y.-Three pounds of
cream tartar, three pounds of corn
starch, one and one-ha.f pounds of
soda, one and half ounces carbonate
ammonia pulverized. Seal up tightly"
Suggestions to Jelly Makers.
The most tart fruits will make the
frmest jelly, although fruits of all
kinds can be used. But in the case
of peaches, ounces, apples and crab
apples, little water must be added
to them for the first cooking. They
are not sufficiently juicy and
would burn before any juice could be
obtained, A more laborious method,
however, which will avoid adding the
water, is to improvise a double boiler
by setting the kettle of fruit into a
large pan of water and cook the fruit
n this way. 1t will need stirring
frequently and to be cooked longer
than by the first method.
Ounces require quarter of a
pound less sugar to pint of juice
than other fruits, while green grapes,
which make a most delicious, spicy
jelly to eat with poultry and game,
need one and half pounds of sugar
for the same quantity of juice. Bar
berries require that their juice
and the sugar be boiled together ten
minutes before pouring into the
glasses.
Rags to strain the juice through,
are often made of flannel and are
good, but those of coarse but firm
crash are better. In either case two
loops of tape should be sewed on each
side of a bag, so that piece of
broom or mop-handle or the time
honored family yard stick can be run
through them and the bag suspended.
A porcelain or granite ware kettle,
wooden spoon, tumblers ready to
roll IN hot water just before filling,
and towels to wipe them quickly all
being at hand, jelly-making can begin
without delay Good Housekeep-
ing.

APPLE CAKE.-Boil one pound and
a half of lump sugar in one pint
of water untilit becomes sugar again,
then add two pounds of apples, pared
and cored, with the juice and little
of the peel of two small lemons. Boil
the mixture until quite stiff and put
in a mould. Turn out when cold, if
wanted the same day, and before
sending to the table pour a thick
custard around it. If left in the
mould it can be kept for several
months.
TRANSPARENT ARRowRooT Pup
DTNG.-Mix a cupful of arrowroot
with little water until quite smooth.
Ten sweet and three bitter almonds
should be blanched and pounded,
adding two or three drops of water,
stirring in enough powdered sugar
to make it sweet. After strain
ing pour this gradually on the arrow
root, stirring all the time. Boil for
few minutes, pour in mould and
cool.
