Look out for the Little Ones.

Summer brings not only its disoom-
forts but it's attending perils to thousands
of %toilers, their wives and little ones, and
statistics show that a large proportion of
these children die from what is known as
summer complaints, diarrhea, cholera
infantum and disentery. Now. as doubt
less, every evil has its remedy, so every
disease has its cure. and no fact is better
established by the experience of thousands
than that these diseases ofchildren are per-
fectly cured BY Humpbreys' mild, pleas
ant and perfectly harmless Specifics Nos.
four, five and six. Nurses declare they
are infallible and have saved hundreds Of
children. Humphrey Specifics have
found their wsy into nearly every house

FIRE BUGS AGAIN.
Fire a Frame Business House on
Seventeenth.
Placed an Internal Machine Above
the Ceiling.
The Chatter of Chinese Calls Gut
the Durants.

There was another incendiary fire, the
second of the week at l:3o o'slock this
morning. The building selected for
destruction was a frame on the north side
OF Seventeenth, between Themes and
O'Neil. 1t was last occupied as a res
taurant.
The fire was discovered by members of
the Chinese colony resident in that block.
The pig tails chartered and screamed like
a band OF scared monkeys. The Durant
cart was brought from the City hall and
the flames extiDguished almost before the
alarm was turned in from box No. IL at
Dyer's hotel.
An entrance to the place was effected
through the back door. The incendi-
aries had a tin pail filled with chips aud
rag saturated with kerosene. This in
fernal machine was placed through a trap
door in the ceiling and touched off. The
chatter of the Chinese resulted in saving
the place and perhaps several other frame
buildings in the neighborhood. Owner
ship of the structure lies with the Cluny
estate.
Thursday nights South Side fire was
started by bugs and this mornings
FIRE had a similar origin. The miscreants
are evidently firing buildings just for the
fun of the thing. 1t is likely the work
Of tramps. as these gentry have a deep
seated hatred of Cheyenne.

Horses and Dogs.

Prof. Gentry's animal paradox at
tracted a large crowd to the Crawford
last evening. 1t is about the incest and
most entertaining exhibition of equine
and canine precocity ever witnessed IN
this. city. The ponies have more than
the usual amount of what is fattering
referred to as horse sense" and the dogs
are simply wonderful. 1t is the largest
troupe of performing dogs in the world.
There are all kinds of dogs, all c%olors, all
sizes and all breeds. The ease and pre-.
cision with which the ponies and dogs
execute the orders OF their master shows
the marvellous instinct of the animal crea-
ton and the remarkable skill of Prof.
Gentry as a trainer. The feats of jump
ing are watched with great interest and
when the greyhound. Prince. gives his
great leap. the excitement is as intense as
that elicited by a race between noted
horses. The dog seems to understand
what is expected of him and accomplishes
the feat with evident satisfaction.

Newcastle Thursday. They report says
the Custer Chronicle, a scheme to move
Newcastle people westward on the oil
claim owned by Ed Nelson. of Hill City,
by furnishing residence lots about one
mile west of the present TOWNSHIP of New
castle. The price of lots in Newcastle
will undoubtedly add great impetus to
the early success of this scheme. We

A HEAVY
A Halt Million Buy Made by the
. Union Pacific.

The Union Pacific has bought the prop
erty OF the Northern Pacific Terminal com
panY on the east side of the river at Port
land, Ore. The property comprises about
$50 acres of land adjoining Albina, with a
river frontage of about a mile, also the
shops erected by the terminal company
at a Gust of about $500. 900, and the
~roundhouse. warehouse, coal bunkers
and tracks.
The preliminary statement for May
shows an increase OF gross earnings of
1899, $40; operating expenses increased
1875, 1856, making the increase in net
only So, 100. President Adams SAYS
there are three reasons for the large
percentage of operating expenses this
season-additional service, fast train be.
tween Omaha and Portland exclusively
for United States mail, which barely re-
turned a new dollar for an old one, and
the expenditure OF o amounts OF
money for the repair of equipment.
From January LIST to April 30th. l.700.-
600 was charged to the latter account,
being an increase of $500 900 compared
with the lame time in 1889.
