CUT TO PIECES.
Brakeman James Manning Killed
Near Fort Steele.

In Laramie to-day a young widow
weeps bitterly and clasps more closely to
her bosom a child that cannot understand
the mothers grief.
Tie violent death OF James Manning,
a Union Pacific brakeman, near Fort
Steele yesterday, is peculiarly distressing.
Intelligence of his sudden taking off was
wired headquarters here and was con-
tanned in one OF those startling kilograms
which frequently cause railway men to
wish with all fervor that they had adopted
another vocation.
Conductor Bowman, who was in charge
Of a west bound freight train, sent the
telegram. There was no graphic descrip-
ton of a horrible fatality, no word paint
ing of a tragedy, only the announcement.
without waste Of words, that his crew
had found the dead body of James Man
ming, Conductor Marks rear brakeman,
en- the track near Fort Steele, badly cut
up.
A supplementary report gave the infor-
nation that the remains would be taken
to Rawlius and an inquest held Monday.
Manning doubtless fell between the cars
and many wheels passed over him. His
body was literally cut to pieces. All the
facts will be brought out at the inquest,
the proceedings of which will be specialized
THE LEADER.
The dead brakeman was only "a years
old, but leaves a wife and one child. He
was born at Newcastle, County Limerick,
Ireland.

.sRomeo and Juliet,

Margaret Mather as the Inflated "Ju-
let charmed a large audience at the
opera house last evening. Added to the
qualification of witnessing so famed a star
of the American stage as Miss Mather
was the entertainment of superior sup
port and pleasing scenic display.
Margaret Mather has received valuable
aid from nature in her efforts to stand
Nth the leaders in dramatic portrayal. A
perfect form, every swelling line the en-
bodiment of grace, symmetry and health;
a handsome face with mobile mouth and
sparkling eyes, and browning all a wealth
OF pale golden hair forms a picture as
charming az the ideal of an artist.
Miss Mather's voice is clear and reson-
ant. To her natural gifts she brings con
scientious efforts to attain the highest
possibilities OF her art and ID painstaking
in minor scenes. In the famed balcony
scene not only Romeo" is in love with
her but her audience is captivated. In
the potion scene. when contemplat-
ing the awful possibilities of death or the
more dreaded tate of awakening amid the
horrors of the tomb aud the companion
ship of dead mems bones in the grave Of
the Capulcts she rises to the full height
OF dramatic realism and her terror affects
the audience and creates a nervous dread
in the listener to her fo~rebodings. Equal
ly realistic is the final death scene and an
effect which the slightest awkwardness
would mar, is so gracefully presented that
one forgets that the scene is but at Illus
ion and is lost in pity for the unfortunate
lovers.
For the character of Romeo" Mr..
Welles has good looks, a pleasing voice
aud graceful stage presence and manners.
Mr.. Studlee as "Mercutio" make a hit
not SO deep as a well. etc. but enough
to win him the appreciation of his
hearers.
Taken in its entirety the play was a
treat to the audience and Shakesperian
drama lost no admirers by reason of the
manner Miss Mather aud her company
presented it.

THE MICHIGAN 1 N
A Force is Removing Fifty Ton of
Ore DAILY.

r. P. Benedict, the western agent for
the Pennsylvania Salt Manufacturing
company. and the gentleman who repre-
sented this corporation in the $50, 900 deal
involving the REIMBURSEMENT of the ia
nous Michigan copper mine in this
county. arrived from the mine yesterday
and accorded an interview to a LEADER
representative at the Inter Ocean last
evening.
A dozen miners are working on the
Michigan and fifty tons of ore are added
to the dump every day. Fifteen tons are
hauled to the Northwestern railway at
Lusk daily and loaded for the companY's
works at Natrona, near Pittsburg. Twen-
ty-fve men with two and four horse
teams do the hauling. All supplies are
purchased at Lusk, and the town is more
prosperous than at any time in
its history, Several buildings have been
erected at the mine and quite a little set
Element has grown up about the Michigan.
The company ships a carload of ore a
day to the East. This may Don be in
creased to two. Mr.. Benedict says there
will be considerable ore which his people
do not care to use at Natrona and which
will be held at the mine until a railway
reaches it. He intimated that had the
Union Pacific secured the hauling on
tract a smelter might have been located
at Cheyenne.
The fact that Michigan ore is not
brought through this place is to be de-
plored. 1t could be hauled from the mine
to Wendover cheaper than to Lusk and
the wagon road to the Cheyenne & North
ern is much better, being a down grade
for iour-ffths of the way.

He Cures People.

DIR. Birney, the eminent nose and throat
specialist, has succeeded beyond his ex.
pectations in this field. He deserves it.
The gentleman has treated several
hundred cases of chronic catarrh
here and has been successful
in almost every instance. Dozens
of prominent citizens will attest
his ability to cure nose and throat troub-
les. Every day one may hear people
voluntarily sounding his praises.
DIR. Birney's Offices at the Hotel Nor.
mandy are frequented BY patients from
early morning until late at night. His
charges are moderate aud the electrical
acknowledgement by the medical III
thorities- is the only cure for catrrah.

Mr.. Kimball's retirement is entirely
voluntary. He has passed the meridian
of life, is wealthy, and by his own efforts
attained a position of honor, discharging
his duties with credit to himself and to
the satisfaction of the great corporation.
No man on the system has a better right
to retire from active service. His reputa-
ton as a gentleman of integrity and as an
executive railway official of shrewdness
and ability. has been established.
G. S. Mellin is classed with the best
traffic managers in the country. He is a
keen individual with a a clear business
head, an ability to face emergencies and
a determination that conquers difficulties.
He is feared by scheming poolers and
heartily respected by rival lines. When
the traffic managers consult no mans
opinion carries more weight than Mr..
Mellen's.
The new general manager, the redoubtss
able Ed Dickinson. is one of the most pop
ular officials ever connected with the
Union Pacific. He is a clever gentleman
and a railway man whose capability has
been ittiugly recognized. Fifteen years
ago Ed Dickinson was a boy train dis
patcher. He has been promoted from
time to time until now he is about to ac-
cept one of the highest offices in the gift
of the directorate. THE LEADER joins

A SWEEPING CHANGE.
General Manager KimbaIl of the
Union Pacific to Retire.
Ed. Dickinson Will be Promoted to
the Position.
A Reorganization in an Official Way
Contemplated.

Dispatch to The Leader.

special Dispatch to The Leader
OMAHA, Oct. 12.-Another sweeping
change is to be made in the official ranks
of the Union Pacific. 1t means the re-
tirement of Thomas L. Kimball from the
position OF general manager, and the APP
pointment of Edward Dickinson as his
successor. The statement that such a
change is to be made In a few days can
be traced to William HI. Holcomb, vice
president of the road, who made it prior
to his departure for Boston.
THE BOSTON END.
1t has been known for some time that
a deal of this kind was on foot, and that
unless the officials in Boston interfered it
would be contaminated inside Of tie next
ten days. The latest advices from Boston
are to the effect that no opposition will be
made to the change and that it will be
made at the meeting to be held In that
city Wednesday next.
NO ASSISTANTS.
Upon the appointment OF Mr.. Dickin-
son as general manager the department OF
assistant general manager will be abol-
ished.
TRAFFIC MANAGER.
1t has been decided to extend the juris
diction of q. s. Mellen, traffic mansger.
over the entire system and confer the title
OF general traffic manager on him.
DUTIES OF OFFICERS.
The heads OF the traffic and supply de-
partments will then report direct to the
vice president. The duties Of the general
manager will be confined to operating ex-
clusively. and all division superintendent,
superiEtendents Of motive power and
heads of the operating departments will
report direct to the general manager. The
jurisdiction of the latter at this point will,
in all probability. be extended to Ogden,
which will divest the general manager of
the consolidated system of the Wyoming
division.
IN AN ADVISORY CAPACITY.
1t is semi officially announced that Mr..
Kimball will not sever his connection with
the Union Pacific. On the other hand.
he is to be retained in an advisory posi-
ton. The Office OF third vice president is
te be created for this emergency. Mr..
Kimballs headquarters will be at Omaha,
but his duties will be confined to transac-
tons with the Boston Office. 1t is thought
that a circular will make its appearance
announcing the above change IN a short
time. Nj. Kimball is expected to re-
turn from Boston Monday.
CONFIRMATION.
Special Dispatch to the Leader.
OMAHA, Oct. l2.-Every statement in

frmed. What will become of G. M.
