It was found that Quiroz had been shot in the back, tho ball probably passing through the heart, and came out the left nipple Quiroz's saddle burro was found dead about fifty yards distant, stabbed in a manner that beef or hog is stuck, and the saddle was missing. Five of the pack animals were found some dis tance down the guleh, going to- wards water. Three of the burros had pack saddles on and two with out. The only tracks discovered were the tracks of a shod pony, lead ing from where the body was found down the Warnick road. The camp had been rifed of all provisions and blankets.
 The CorOner's party reached the scene after dark and were compelled to remain over night and at the present writing have not returned, except A. J. Arana, who confirms Mr. Reynolds statement in all im- portant particulars. The belief is held by some that Quiroz was killed by Indians, but that is only con- lecture

BooTH's BAzoo has some deep seated convictions. It says When a man who has dollars to our mills and whose entire interests are in this country, orders his paper stop ped because it costs him four dol lars year, that man ought to seek some desert country, find a hole, crawl into the hole and drlg 1t in after him. Such a man is too mean to take front seat in heaven if 1t costs him ten cents more than a back seat in hell.

TIE Independent published at Helena, Montana, has the following in regard to the political situation Tn that State: There has been no new developments in the Silver Bow contest, save that instead of the Republicans getting in the entire Legislative delegation they only get in six members; but that number Is sufficient to overcome the Demo cratic majority shown on the face of the returns. The opinion among lawyers is that the Silver Bow can vassers had no authority to go back of the returns, and that the court will decide in favor of counting the ballots as returned by the judges of the election"

THE trial of the supposed mur- derers of pr. Cronin, in Chicago: is becoming more complicated every day. There is a strong organiza- ton of Irishmen in that city known
 as the Clan-na- gael, which has it's ramifcations throughout the west ern and eastern states, that is doing all in it's power to thwart the ends of justice. It has been discovered recently that this organization has it's agents at work, trying to check

 The prevailing belief that the sting of a scorpion is never fatal was effectively disapproved last Friday morning in this city. A Mexican child, nine months old picked up live scorpion and put it in its mouth, receiving its sting nnder the tongue. The parents of the child were at loss to account for it's illness and sent for Dr. Ad- Ter when it was apparent that it's life was in immediate danger, but too late to save it. In little more than three-quarters of an hour the child was a corpse.-Florance En- terprlse.

STANLEY gets in his work, not as
the rescuer of Emin Bey, but as pro-
moter of the influence of the East
Africa company. This company is
rapidly acquiring an influence in East
Africa such as was acquired by the
East India company in the last GEN.
tury. By this last exploit of Stanley
tract OF coast line over 700 miles in
extent has been added to its original
Concessions. This territory leads up
TO the possessions of Emin Bey who
did not appear to need aid from Stan
ley as much as Stanley required as
sistance from him. The opening
which this acquisition gives to the
East Africa company, if properly
taken advantage of by diplomatic ne
gotiations, will be of immense financial
benefit to them, but if these have
been neglected McKennon's outlay
will prove a poor investment for his
company.
NEW YORK wants that worlds ex-
position of 1892 and she wants it bad,
but she has no place to put it. Rec
ognizing this tact two original and in
genious architects Of Gotham propose
to spring steel arches over several
blocks and erect mammoth plat
form of about twenty acres area, upon
which an immense structure three
stories high would be built. The idea
is novel. Why not spring the arches
from the New York to the New Jersey
shore and build the structure over the
Hudson. This would interfere with
no property rights in the city, would
not shut out the daylight from the en-
closed blocks, and would admit of
the merchant marines of the world
bringing their contributions direct to
the door of the exposition. New York
would do much to get that exposition,
so would Chicago and st. Louis, but
it goes to the national capital, all the
same.

THEY COME TO TAW
Laramie Men Talk Sensibly of a
Shooting Match.
Willing to Come to Cheyenne for a
Friendly Contest.
Their Captain Was Only BIuflng on
Other Occasions.

Referring to the challenge of the
Cheyenne Gun club, issued through THE
LEADER several days ago, Mondays
Boomerang says: THE members of the
Gem City shooting club will accept the
challenge of the Cheyenne men provided
the stakes are placed at a lower figure.
When the match was first proposed it
was the desire of both sides to make the
pot only large enough to cover expenses
and the cost of birds, and the Laramie
sportsmen do not feel at present able to
take part in a 5000 match. They would
like to become better acquainted with the
Cheyenne sportsmen and to have an oc-
c%asional contest of skill with them, and
believe that the initial match should be
made on hat basis. They were out
practising yesterday"
The member of The LEADER staff with
whom the $50 forfeit of the Cheyenne
team was posted is inclined to regard the
above as official declinatiou of the chal-
lenge and will return the evidence Of good
faith Friday unless the Laramie men
cover it. Let 1t be understood that the
challenge IS still open. Heubrick, the
captain Of the Gem City team, in a windy
interview with a boomerang reporter said
that the Cheyenne men could have a
match for all the money they could raise.
Heubrick, however, has not said a word
since the def appeared in THE LEADER.
Yesterday Peter Bergersen, captain of
the Cheyenne team, received the APP
pended communication:
LARAMIE, Jan. 14.-P Ber9erSen.-
DEAR SIR: There has been a great deal
of controversy lately in Laramie and
Cheyenne papers regarding a pigeon shoot
between the two towns, but and a few
more true sports in this town do not
recognize 1t at all. We want to arrange a
match between the two towns strictly on
on sporting principles, not as a money
making scheme. | now offer as a sugges-
