A YaIIer Dog.

The row on North Frio street last
night, which called for the iuterven-
zion of the noun ted police, was not
caused by a fight over the disputed
ownership Of a yellow dog, as the tx
press makes it, but over the right Of
a yellow dog to poke his nose in the
water pail of his masters neighbOr
The row was in the nature Of rock
fusilade between two cOlOred men,
David Booker and Jim st. Clair;
neither of whom were injured and
both of whom were arrested.

The splendid team, Alton and Stewart, who
are doing the greatest female impersonating
ever seen in Texas, at the Washington thea
tire, have been the means of mystfying the
pu Ulic quite as much as the Lockwood shoot

of this city have even gone so far as TO treat
them to wine in the boxes, when they are
dressed in their stage costumes and have of
fered to escort them home from the stage en-
trance of the theatre after the play.
The most laughable incident of all
the fun they have created thus far occurred
Monday night. Harry Thornton, one of the

Since 40 years it has been the study
of our most accomplished moulders to
perfect a Cooking Stove, which could
be equally as well adapted for coal or
wood.
The problem has at last been solved
and samples of remarkable beauty
and finish can be seen at II. Schultze

Ladies are invited to inspect the
stock, no trouble to show goods. The
Twin Burner Gasoline Stove, finest in

the efforts TO create college In every

IN THE EAST.
Wyoming but Little Known in Some
States.
The Indianians Think 1t Simply a
Great Pasture.
Engineer Mead Does CommendabIe
Missionary Work.

Territorial Engineer Mead, who re-
turned from an extended visit to Indiana
Thursday, talked of Wyoming in the
East to a LEADER representative yester-
day.
In the president-elect state, and even
in his town, the best informed men know
Of Wyoming only as a vast public pasture
where cattle barons own everything in
sight and cowboys rule with iron hands,
or, rather, six shooters. When told that
there was a large area of agricultural land
in the territory, that one third of its SUI
face was underlaid with coal, that there
we're extensive oil fields and hat nearly
all of the base metals existed here in large
deposits, and that the precious metals
were frequently encountered, the most
enlightened HOLSTERS expressed astonish-
ment, but were pleased aud satisfactorily
credulous.
In the section OF the East traversed by
Mr.. Mead he found the statehood senti-
ment in the ascendancy. The people
ccSm ~ DSlicNO Iuat vi VI luC OcIIlJOIies
except Utah were entitled to admission
and would get into the sisterhood.
Mr.. Mead heard much political talk
while in Indiana and Indianapolis. He
says that there are a horde OF workers who
are already pushing their claims for re-
ward and hat they would as soon accept
a place in the west as in the east. He
was approached by several men who con-
templated applying for Wyoming posts.
Nevertheless Mr.. Mead believes that the
incoming administration will follow the
letter of the territorial home rule plank
and that Wyoming will be officially man
ned with a crew of territorial residents.
In his characteristic manner Mr.. Mead
improved excellent opportunities to make
Wyoming known abroad. He was Piled
with all manner of questions, and having
a vast fond of practical knowledge on the
territory disseminated it without stint.
There are many people In that section
who will emigrate in the spring and MI.
Mead thinks that Wyoming will secure
its share of the tide.
The territorial engineer was much i'm
proved physically by his trip but has not
yet entirely recovered.

OGDEN is AMERICAN.
An Interesting Letter from an ex-Chey-
enne Man.

Below are some pretty interesting ex-
cerpts from a letter to Geo. B. Henderson
penned at Ogden by a former resident OF
this city the day following the notable
election at that place:
The United States marshal went to
the polls yesterday and announced that II
the saints did not behave and conduct
themselves properly he would take charge
of the election himself and run the same
under the authority of the United States
government. This talk had the desired
effect and the saints, together with their
policemen, took the warning and pulled
down their vests We carried the day by
a majority of nearly 500, and henceforth
this is to be an American city. There
will be no more half masting the Ameri-
can flag on the 4th of July.
when the sun rose this morning it
looked down on hundreds of delighted
and thankful Americans, many Of whom
had lived under this infamous Mormon
rule for more than forty years.
The task of describing the scene last
night after it became known that the Lib
erals had carried the day is greater than
l shall attempt. To make the defeat of
the saints more Illuminating, at least 200
Mormons deserted them on election day
and went over to the Liberals.
THE assertions going the rounds to
the effect that polygamy is dead in this
territory are wholly and absolutely untrue.
The district court which meets at Provo,
Utah county to-day, has 200 ''cohab"
cases on the docket, and it is certain that
a number have boen overlooked.
The affairs of the territory for the
pastfour years merit investigation by a
congressional committee. There has been
much crookedness. and if light was
thrown in some dark places a series of
startling revelations would be made"
