Belle Scott and Jennie Smith, 4 pair o.
dissolute black women created a tremen
dous rumpus at the depot Sunday. They
came down from Chicago to the big STONE
building to bid adieu to members of 8
squad of colored troops who have been al
Fort Russell the past two weeks. The
females were drunk and some Of the
troops carried elegant iags. The result
was an exciting ENHANCEMENT, followed
by a sanguary battle between the women
and regular and volunteer city officers.
A soldier first became bellicose and was
only after a desperate struggle forced into
the car. The decisive action of Capt.
Parker averted in this instance Il serious
fight.
The women smoked cigars and sang
"Razzle Dazzle" and as might be inferred
violently objected to the exercise of au.
thority by the local officers. They bit
and scratched and kicked and yelled and
swore. Men who have been in Union
Pacific service for years. men who have
10 AIDED stock on a dark. cold night, men
who have held their trains on sidetracks
for ten hours straight, men who have
figured for a month to account for three
carrots stolen from a car and men whose
trains have been stopped short between
stations by the breakage of a small piece
of machinery, we're frank t. admit that
they knew nothing of blasphemy.
The creatures fought with all their
power until landed in an express wagon
and even then did not cease. One of the
emergency officers was bitten on the
arm. A great crowd gathered to witness
the combat. Several remarked that the
officers were altogether too gallant, that
the club shonld have been used
without hesitation or mercy. Judge Lee
yesterday fined the women the limit on
two charges-drunk and disturbance.
HE THOUGHT so.
During the progress of the shameful
row a well fed wag beside whom was
seated in a coach a handsome matron and
a~couple Of nice looking children, raised
his window and anxiously inquired;
What place is this2" Cheyenne. State
of Wyoming" was the ready response of
a score Of patriotic citizens. Il thought
So" gleefully yelled the traveller as ht
quickly lowered the window.
