new FAST SERVICE.
II Will be via st. Louis, Denver and
Cheyenne.
A Combination by the Union Pacific
and Alton.
Arrangements for a Great Reduc-
tion of Time.

The new through Chicago, Denver and
Cheyenne train over the Union Pacific
via Kansas City and the Chicago 4 Al
ton to Cheyenne and Omaha, giving 4
new fast train service is to be put on Sun
day says the Omaha Herald. The new
schedule would have gone into effect sew
eral days ago; but a delay was occasioned
by the Pullman company not having the
equipments ready.
The schedule aseeed upon bv the two
roads is the same as by the Chicago &
Northwestern and Union Pacific at
Omaha which is thirty.seven hours be-
tween Chicago and Denver. OF this
time the Alton will take seventeen hours,
and the Union Pacific twenty hours, and
should it become necessary. other lines
can further reduce the time.
This schedule is about three hours and
a half shorter than the present time. The
Union Pacific claims to be able TO make
the run in seventeen hours and the Alton
in fourteen, but this will not be done for
the present as the Union Pacific does
not want to make any difference in the
time it makes between Kansas City and
Denver and between Omaha and Denver.
The Alton proposes to leave Chicago
about midnight, and will arrive at Denver
about 7 o'clock the following evening.
The distance between the two points is
1.l27 miles against 1852 miles by way of
the Northwestern and Omaha.
The principal object to be obtained by
running the through trains is to compete
with the Burlington. which under its new
fast train schedule, will make the run in
thirty-seven hours, and to surpass the
made by the Rock Island and Santa
Fe. Over the former line it takes FIVE
hours longer and over the latter two hours
additional.

A PIPE LINE TO DENVER.
A Project I o Pipe Oil from Near Casper
to CoIorado's Capital.

Geo. L. Aggers and 2. T. Mcnamara,
gentlemen who have been largely inter
ested in the Carbon county oil fields for
many years, are In Denver e~ndeavoring to
organize a pipe line company. Their idea
is to have the line start from the south
side of the North Platte river, southwest
of Casper somewhat. from which place a
generally direct course south by east would
be taken to a point on the Union Pacific a
short distance west of Rock Creek. 1t
would then diyerge slightly more to the
east, passing west Of Laramie, and finally
strike the plains north of Denver at Fort
Collins. Its course into Denver from
there would be direct. .
Mr.. Aggers told a reporter that he had
received assurances from several substan-
tial citizens of Denver that they would
take stock in the enterprise, and when it
is once started he has no fears of finding
all the money needed in addition in the
east The obstacle we have to con-
tend with" he said lis the influence of
the coal companies, because they know
that to compete with oil as fuel they
would have to lay down their product
here at 81. so a ton for the majority OF the
big manufacturing concerns.
Three pumping stations would proba-
bly, be needed, one at the starting point,
one at Rock creek, and one at Fort Col
Inns. The principle of gravity would
solve the rest OF the problem. A six-inch
pipe would empty 5000 barrels a day into
Denver easily. A smaller one would on
vey a vast quantity of oil, but from the
fact that the amount named could be
proftably utilized at Denver, its adoption
is not deemed advisable"

Samuel II. Becker, the colored crank
who after many earnest endeavors sue.
ceeded in getting into the Cheyenne jail
by smashing a large window in Nyquest's
Furniture store, was arraigned before
Justice Carroll yesterday, charged with
the commission OF malicious mischief.
Becker said he would be pleased to 20
to the penitentiary for one, or even two
years. The caliph could only give him five
days in the county Jail, and Becker
seemed very much disappointed.
The colored crank displayed considera-
BILE ability in stating his case to the court.

FOR H
A Circular Letter Issued to the
AsricuIturists.
What the Fair Association Will do
for the Farmer.
List of Special Prizes for the Next
Exhibit.

The Fair Association is about to issue
this circular letter to the farmers of Wy
oming:
We wish to enlist the interest and CO.
operation of the far mers of this territory
in making the display Of farm products at
and best ever gathered together in the

To this end it has increased the value

products. and has limited the compsti-
ton for the most valuable prizes to resi-
dents of. this territory. In doing this,
while intending to make the premiums as
large as the association can at present
afford, and of a value to award successful
exhibitors for the time and labor ex
pended in preparing products for exhib
iting, our chief reliance has been upon
your appreciation of the fact that a large
and meritorious display OF what our terri
tory is capable of doing as a farming
country will be of the greatest value in
calling the attention of the outside world
to our and prospects. We be-
lieve the time will come when such a dis
play can be had, and we look to the in
terest and public spirit of our farmers to
make good whatever loss Of exhibits the
limiting of outside competition may cause.
1T satisfactory to owners, selections will
be made from the various exhibits and
the collection thus obtained will be prop
erly labeled with the name and address of
the grower and permanently displayed
in the agricultural hall of the capitol
building, where it will serve as an object
lesson TO investors and inquIrers regard
ing Wyoming's capabilities as a farming
country.
We have issued this In advance of the
regular premium list in order that those
intending to compete may make prepare
lions this spring for the exhibit. Should
anyfurther information be desired, address
N. r. Davis, secretary, Cheyenne. or
Elwood Mead, superintendent farm de-
partment, Cheyenne.
The premium list for the fair to be held
Sept. II. Is. 10 and 20 of the current
year is in the hands OF the printers.

During this beautiful weather you
should have your negative made for a

received so much praise of late.
This request applies particularly to the
little ones as there is no excuse for keep
ing them in the house on account of bad
weather.
Remember life is uncertain and should
any of the dear little ones be taken from
you without a good picture of them the
greatest regret of your life will be your
own neglect in attending to this impor-
tant duty.

Chicago Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO. ILL.,, Jan. IA large business
was transacted in wheat today, and prices
again touched a lower point, and reached
below the dollar mark for May. The de-
cline was solely the result of realizing on
long wheat. The opening was little
stronger, and prices early in the session
advanced &c above the closing ngures OF
Saturday. due TO rather free covering OF
shorts, and possibly the buying OF some
long wheat in expectation OF d
reaction, but the speculative oner-
ings continued heavy, and when the most
Urgent demands were supplied weak
feeling set in. There evidently is lack OF
confidence Influenced by the recently da-
yeloped weakness in the market and oper-
ators are afraid of more long wheat COM
ING on the market. The result OF the
heavy offerings was a decline of 2Mc from
the top figures reached early in the morn
ing. which decline was followed by &c ad-
vance and the closing was quiet and PC
lower than Saturday.
Corn ruled quiet most of the session The
feeling developed was weaker and this
was attributed largely to the large IN
crease in the visible supply. The opening
was about the same as the closing prices
of Saturday and the market ruled steady
for time, but soon sold off nc, when the
visible supply became known, ruled
steady, closing 1S@Ac lower than Satur-
