CHANGE for an Argument.

nearly everything he has that he has the
finest barn in Wyoming"
Not much-is known OF Joe Fishers
barn hore. but Cheyenne is ahead of all
Western cities 10 this line and
can easily establish the claim as
well as the further distinction of
having better horses. 1t has been said
that when a Cheyenne man gets ready to
settle down he builds q barn and a house
follows if he has anything left. OF
course this isn't the rule, but it has been
the case in several notable instances. No
people clothe their horses better or haze
finer rigs than the Cheyennites. There
are 100 barns in this city that cost more
than enough each % build a model resi-

WYOMING COAL.
A Treatise on the Fuel in hi GeoIo-
gist's Next Report.

A LEADER representative who called
on Territorial Geologist Ricketts, at the
capitol yesterday found the Official reduc.
ing data for his forthcoming report and
making an analysis of Wyoming ignite
coal al the same time.
The conversation quite naturally turned
to coal, the mining of which is Wyom-
ing's chief industry. in the ~geologlst's
report will be an exhaustive treatise on
coal. There will be a description of each
mine now operated in the tersitory. in
Guiding the excellent measures lately
opened in Crook county. Diagrams will
accompany the pen pictures of the mines.
1t is the purpose of Mr.. Ricketts, to give
future developers the benefit of tie
knowledge gained by those now owning
productive mines. With this end
in view he will point out the difficulties en-
countered in penetrating veins and sug-
gest the best means of overcoming these.
He will give the nature OF the layers from
the surface until the coal body is encoun-
tered, so that miners will know what to
expect. Mr.. Ricketts, will call attention
to several fine deposits of coal not yet
touched, notably the banks in the Whis-
key gap country, north of Rawlins, where
there is coal equal to the Rock Springs
article. 1t is used to a limited extent by
ranchmen in that country and at one or
two stage stations.
The biologists report will be ready
only a few DAYS before the legislature con-
venes as MI. Ricketts, wishes to make an
other trip to Crook county, where there
has lately been some very important de-
yelopment work.
To morrow forenoon Geologist Ricketts,
and Mr.. William Sturgis, Jr.. leave for
Hartville to collect material for an elabo-
rate report on the district to be submitted
to President Adams of the Union Pacific.

ARTISTIC FEMININITIEs.
Some of the PrettIest Articles Ever
Seen in Cheyenne.

btth IN ,htJChht
The ladies are in raptures over the dis
play of artistic goods made by Mrs. f. l..
Robinson at her store in the Carey block
on Ferguson street. The holiday OPEN
ing occurred yesterday. In addition to a
bewildering array of fancy goods manu-
featured by Mrs. Robinson herself or
her competent assistants. she has received
a large invoice OF the choicest articles di
rect from the New York establishment
with which she was formerly connected.
This insured receiving the very latest and
the most unique designs which the season
has afforded.
Mrs. Robinson's store occupies a field
peculiarly its own. She has built 1t up
through her own energy and the lady who
now visits the establishment wonders
how the town could, have heretofore
got along without it.
The store was crowded all day yesterday
and the dainty display was received with
choruses of delighted EXPLANATIONS. 1t
is a sight such as any lady with artistic
instinct would rave over. Among such a
variety it is impossible to pention articles
in detail but the ladies of the city will get
many ideas in artistic work and see many
exquisite novelties by calling at the store
day or evening. They should not fail to
do so to-day while the stock is still intact.

Life in 1882.

A STORM STORY.

On the 5th of the present month, says
the Evanston Ch~ieftdn, the body OF a
man was found about six miles from
Rawlins. From papers found in the
clothing it was thought the deceased was
from Evanston. and the authorities Of
Carbon county wrote here regarding the
matter. By this means the body has
been identified as that of Byron Rowley,
youngest brother of Mrs. R. B. Seaton,
OF this city, who was lost IN a severe
snow storm of 1882.
In November, 1882, young Rowley,
being then about II years of age was as
sisting to drive a band of cattle through
from Big Piney to Rawlins. At the last
camping place, before reaching Rawlins,
young Rowley's horse gave out and he
left the animal behind, and walked into
camp. The ext morning. with a fresh
horse, he started out to find the jaded
animal and bring it along.
In the meantime the other men started
on with the cattle, expecting the young
man would follow the trail and soon Join
them. This would have undoubtedly
been the case but for a terrible snow storm
which set in shortly after he left camp
a storm which many old settlers still re-
member, in which other lives were lost.
This happened seven years ago. and
though diligent search and enquiry was
made. no one ever saw young Rowley
from hat morning when he left his camp,
until his remains were found on the fifth
Of this month, ave the finishing chapter
of the sad event.
MAIL FACILITIES.
The people Of Sundance and Newcastle
are moving for a daily mail to Baffalo
which place contains the land Office for
the district. 1t is said hat land business
could be transacted with greater dispatch
under the present mail system by dealing
direct with Washington. Newcastle hopes
to get a big portion of Buffalo trade if the
daily mail is put on.
HOME INDUSTRY.
The Clipper says the Lander mill has
given the farmers OF the valley $40 0
for $50, 900 pounds of wheat during this
season. The Indian contract amounts to
81. 500 and 800, 900 pounds of -four has
been consumed at home. No outside
-four will be used in that country next
season.

and at one time was in the safe of a Chey-
mn business house. There will be a suit
over the cattle. as Bowling & Rush pur
chased in good faith, believing that Adams
was agent for the company.
A rumor that Adams shortage is much
larger than at first given has gained cur
rency. The sum is given at about $780,.

would not be more disturbed over this
amount than the $4,000 lost,
