SHE TALKED.

She talked of Cosmos and of Cause
And wove green elephants in gauze.
And while she frescoed earthen Jugs,
Her tongue would never pause;
On sages wise and esoteric,
And bards from Wendell Holmes to Hs~
rick
Thro' times proud Pantheon she walked,
And talked and talked and talked and
talked.
And while she talked, she would crochet, :
And make all kinds of macrame
Or paint green bobolinks upon
Her mothers earthen tray;
Shed decorate smelling bottle,
While she conversed on Aristotle:
While flames proud favorites round her
locked
She talked and talked and talked and
talked!
She talked and made embroidered rugs,
She talked and painted 'lasses jugs,
And worked five sea green turtle doves
On papas shaving mugs;
With Emerson or Epictetus,
Plato or Kant she used to greet Us;
She talked until we all were shocked,
And talked and talked and talked and
talked!
She had lover, and ne told
The story that is never old,
While she her fathers bootjack worked
A lovely green and gold
She switched off on Theocritus;
And talked about Democritus;
While she his ardent passion baked,
And talked and talked and talked and
talked!
He begged her to become his own
She talked of ether and ozone,
And painted yellow poodles on
Her brothers razor hone;
Then talked of Noah and NebuchadnezZar,
And Timon and Tiglath-pileser-
While he at her heart portals knocked,
She talked and talked and talked and
talked!
He bent in loves tempestuous gale,
She talked of strata and of shale,
And worked magnetic peoples on
Her mothers water pail;
And while he talked of passions power,
She amplified on Schopenhauer-
A pistol flashed; he's dead; unshocked,
She talked and talked and talked and
talked!

Emery Dust in His Brain.

The coroner held an inquest the other
afternoon in Pittsburg on the remains of
Robert Virgins, who died at the work
house, where he had been sent two weeks
before by Mayor Pearson for thirty days.
The inquest developed that about year
ago Virgins was injured by the explo-
sion Of an emery wheel at Willey's plan
ing mill in Allegheny, Penn, where he
was employed. Fragments of the ex-
ploded wheel fractured Wiggins's skull,
and ever since the accident he has suf-
fered from brain trouble, which was al
ways aggravated by liquor. On the
night of his arrest he had taken a couple
of drinks and Immediately became wild.
In this condition he was arrested, but the
authorities, not knowing his weakness,
imposed the usual sentence. Virgins
was seized with commissions on Wednes-
day, from which he died on Thursday
A post mortem of his remains disclosed q
considerable quantity of emery dust that
had entered the brain, and this, the ply
sicians said, caused the fatal commissions.
A verdict was rendered in accordance
with the facts.

The sun was setting when the grinding
Of heavy wheels and the Transfers loud
whoas to his horses. as they brought the
loaded wagon TO the door, broke the
awed silence that the approach of death
imposes upon even the most thOughtlesS.
The sounds Weakened the old man, who

and tore the coarse wrappings from the

floor before the bed where the dying man
lay with his face turned outward

WISE WORDS.

Wealth nor power can ennoble the
mean.
No thoroughly occupied man was ever
yet very miserable.
Quarrels would never last long if the
trouble was only on one side.
Our greatest glory is not in never fall
ing, but rising every time we fall.
It is one proof of good education and
of true refinement of feeling to respect
antiquity.
Cheerfulness keeps up a kind of day
light in the mind, filling it with steady
and perpetual serenity.
There are no persons more solicitous
about the preservation Of rank than those
who have no rank at all.
Pride, like the magnet, constantly
points to one object, SELF but unlike the
magnet, it has no attractive pole, but at
all points repels.
Believe nothing against another but on
good authority; nor report what may hurt
another, unless it be greater hurt to an
other to conceal it.
The greater man is in power above
others, the more he ought to excel them
in virture. None ought to govern who
is not better than the governed.
To think well of every other mans
condition, and. to dislike our own, is one
of the misfortunes of human nature.
Pleased with each others lot, our own
we hate.
However good you may be, you have
faults; however dull you may be, you can
find out what some Of them are; and,
however slight they may be, you had
better make some-not too painful but
patient-eforts to get quit of them.

Wanted.

A hat for the head of a fountain,
A glove for the hand OF fate,
a shoe for the foot OF a mountain,
\ link from the chain Of debate.
A spoke from the wheel of fortune,
A chip from the pole" of the south,
A drink from the fountain of knowledge,
. word from the rivers mouth.
A drink from the cup Of sorrow,
A look from the face of the storm,
A stroke from the arm of justice,
A ring for the finger OF scorn.
A knock at the door of repentance,
A throb from the oceans heart,
A glance from the eye of needle,
From Cupids bow dart.

AT SET OF SUN.

The soft'ning twilight creeps spaca
The aftermOod of stormful day,
And close within its fond embrace
The yielding shadows wilt away,
At set of sun
The hearts soft twilight creeps apaca
The aftermOod Of stormful day.
And hides within its calm embrace
The pride that held imperial sway,
At set of sun,

A SURE THING.
Prompt Contributions TO the Shoot
ing Tournament Bonus Fund.

Cheyenne will have the big June shoot
of the Rocky Mountain Sportsmen's As
sociation. 1t new seems absolutely GER
tain that from 206 to 400 Jolly good fei-
lows will come here with their guns and
dogs and lots of change and stay the bet
ter part of a week. They will have a big
following, too, aud will return to their
homes convinced that Cheyenne is the
peerless city Of the plains.
The Sunday meeting of shooters at
Bergersen's was well attended. John
Schuneman was chairman. The tourna-
ment project was thoroughly canvassed
and there was unanimity in the belief
thai the event could be secured for Chey-
enne and hat it would be a successful
affair. A committee including DR.. A. A.
Holcombe, P. Bergersen and Ed. Schune-
man was delegated to solicit for the ST.
600 bonus.
Yesterday only shooters we're asked to
pledge money on condition that the tourn-
ament was secured, and they were liberal
in the extreme. The amount secured
yesterday was 1862 from gentlemen who
own ~shotguns. This does not include $50
appropriated by the Board of Trade.
To-day the bonus committee will work
without regard to persons and it is ex-
pected that the citizens will respond.
They. should, for it is bread cast upon
the waters and will return soon.
If the meet is secured for Cheyenne it
will be almost a national affair, for be-
sides trap matches there will be contests
with rifles and SIX. shooters and experts
and their hackers will come from all over
the United States and Canada. Every
gun and game club in Colorado, New
Mexico, Utah and Wyoming is duty bound
to send a delegation.
THE LEADER will tomorrow print a list
of the contributors to the bonus fund.

Early in the Game.

Capt. White, superintendent OF the
sixth division of railway mail service, ac-
companied the Union Paciic's first fast
mail west Sunday morning. The cap
tain was for two years postmaster of
Cheyenne when the Office was first es-
tablished. The incumbent was removed
and White oficiated until released by
Hon. W. W. Corlett.
Capt White says he at that time had a
considerable bank roll. an accumulation
resulting from monthly plants. His roll
was Just about sufficient to buy Cheyenne
then and he several times seriously con-
templated investing his all here. Of
course he now regrets that he didn't have
the nerve TO buy.

Getting to be a Nuisance.

Dog fights in the streets have been of
rather frequent occurrences in the city
lately. They have attracted big crowds
and the spectacle has scarcely been an
edifying one. If any OF the sports have
any dog fighting to do they should at
least seek the sacred seclusion of some
back yard. The thoroughfares of the
town are no place for such amusements
and the police should see to it that there
are not too many repititions OF tie of
