The entertainment given at the opera
house last evening was very novel and iu-
teresting. Prof. Lowanda performs all
he promises. He is a ventriloquist and
gives a very creditable exhibition of his
powers in that line.
Madam Lowanda is a mind reader and
mystiied the audience by performing a
number of severe tests. Blindfolded she
tells promptly dates on coins in the pos
session OF members of the audience, num-
bers on checks, initials on watch charms
aud other equally difficult mind reading
performances.
Not the least interesting feature of the
entertainment Is the distribution of gifts,
and fortunate ticket holders last night
carried home sacks of -four, hams, silver
ware, albums, pictures and other orna-
mental and useful prizes.
At tonight's entertainment a gold
watch. s25 in gold, and one hundred
other prizes will be given to those lucky
enough to hold winning numbers.

FIFTY CARS OF COAL.
A supply of Fuel offered the Town BY
the Burlington.


Superintendent Highland of the Chey-
enne / Burlington telegraphed from
Holoyoke, Neb., yesterday morning to
ii. G.. Hay, president of the Board Of
Trade, that he was prepared to furnish
the city twenty-five to fifty cars of Colo.
RADIO coal, to be delivered Wednesday or
Thursday.
DIR. Hay handed the message to Mayor
Riner. The latter had not placed an
order at 10 o'clock last night, but rather
thought he would accept the kind Offices
of the Darlington, though there is now
every prospect of getting full relief from
Rock Springs. The Mayor reasons that
there is nothing like beng on the safe
side, and, as indicated IN a LEADER spe-
cial from Rock Springs yesterday, the
situation at the leading Wyoming camp
is somewhat uncertain.
Tho Burlington has been veiy clever in
this matter, and the citizens of Cheyenne
appreciate the kindness OF the company.

GIFT OF St8, 900 YEAR.
State Gets Five Per Cent Of Land
Office Receipts.
Cheyenne Office, SEC. 900 a Month
all Others, $40, 900.
This Makes $3.50 900 a Year and
the Rebate is Sl8 5000.

The act of congress admitting Wyom-
ing into the union and placing her on an
equal footing with other commonwealth,
provides that Eve per centum of the
receipts OF all land Offices within the
borders, shall be covered into the state
treasury. The shave to be made by the
department at Washington and for
warded to Cheyenne.
The land office at this place accepts
from purchasers Of pieces OF the public
domain an average of $50. 900 a month.
All other offices in the state take in about
$4,000 every four weeks, making a total
of $50, 900 a month. or 1850, 900 a year.
Five per cent of this sum is SIS, 900 and
this will pay the salaries of the state Off
GERS proper.
These facts were brought out yesterday
in a conversation between Judge Van
Devanter and Receiver Grant of the
Cheyenne Land Office. This data has
hitherto escaped nearly everyone. 1t
will be an agreeable bit of news to all.

Peril VIII Follow Abandonment of
the Wyoming Post.

A private letter from Buffalo says:
The order contemplating the removal
of the dead officers and soldiers found in
the Fort Mckinney cemetery, to the Gus
ter battle ground cemetery. looks as II
steps were being taken to abandon the
post, a misfortune to this part Of Wyom-
ing. and seemingly not a military ueces-
sity. On the contrary. in case of an
Indian outbreak it wuld result in loss of
lives and property, and a setback to the
state not to be overcome for some time.
The Indian medicine man, who is be-
lieved by the Indians to be the Christ, is
iomenting trouble, aud runners from all
the Indian tribes are visiting him on
Snake river. All tribes are being DIS
affected, and by him they are taught that
their future salvation depends upon the
overthrow of the whites. While this
may not dismay the American nation, the
few and scattered settlements Of whites in
this country have reason to feel alarmed,
and to look for aud expect protection
of troops in this vicinity, where removal
would make certain, in case of an put
break. loss of life, and whose presence
might avert the same"

CROW CREEK M%EANDERED.
The Beneficial Achievement Of County
Surveyor ZONES.
How the Stream was Traced at ~Haphazard
by s. H. windsor.
A Pleasant joke Perpetratsd on The Sow.
ernor in the Fairly Days.

County Surveyor Jones has received
from the Chicago printers an edition of
the map of Cheyenne prepared by him.
The plat Is PERHAPS the best ever issued,
being absolutely correct and on a large
scale. AL notable marks, such as the
lakes are shown, as well as the yarieus ad-
ditions made to the first of September.
One feature is the presentation of that
mighty stream lately come to be known as
the river Grow.
Away back in the early days, when
Col Luke Murrin was mayor and Ed.
Orpen was clerk and West Meyer chief
of police and before Mutually was killed,
s. Fl. Windsor made a map of the town.
He embellished the border with pictures
of Thomes street. then the commercial
artery, a glimpse of old Jim McDaniels'
theater from the outside and a view of a
coal mine just over the Colorado line,
down Fort Collins way. This latter
WASH a sectional diagram OF the shaft, but
an imposing sketch of an elevated railway,
a couple OF mules and a lot of smoke
stacks, with an elaborate ventilating plant
thrown 10 for goo measure. These were
pushing days and Windsor traced Crow
creek on his masterpiece much as a school
boy turns the Mississippi loose on a labor
ed map of his Own. LIS native land.
Well, be missed badly. The errors that
men make glide along with time, while
their good deeds are buried with them.
Twenty maps OF Cheyenne have been
male since Mr.. Windsor offered his effort
to the public and every time the artist has
reproduced Crow creek from the early
publication. One time at a tax sale F.
E. War.en-he wasn't even a town trus-
tee thcn-bouRht a block that the map
guaranteed to be flooded with the rushing
waters of the river Crow once in three
years at least, for s.. He thought no
more of the transaction for several years,
but dropped a nickel in the slot for fate
when he learned that the land was en-
tirely clear OF the creek and sold it to a
Spectator for 81, 600, and the latter soon
let go at an advance and the piece is now
gilt-edged.
Well Jones, Jones of Egbert, has insured
operators against making such mistakes
as did Mr.. Warren. presuming that such
a thing could happen in these calculating,
scrutinizing days. Jones meandered the
creek and runs it through the proper lots

and the Pushes used in them.
While there are quantities of
Plush CIoaks

on the market, there are COM
paratively few whose chief requi-
sites r quality, fit and work
manship. These highly impor-
tant factors are the foremost con-
siderations by the manufacturers
of OUR CLoAKS, thus placing
us, as their agents in our city, in
a position to offer GARMENTS
surpassed by none for richness
and durability of material, for
taste and elegance, for comfort~in
fit and for reasonableness in price.
The Plush used in these gar
ments is made of double twisted
silk, while the color is the best
London dye, thus ~imparting to
the fabric unusual strength and
beauty, so that in truth they are
genuine

WADUCT AND SUBWAY.
Both are to be Constructed Without
Delay.
Carrying Out Provisions of the
Shop Contract.
Thomss Street Apparently Lost in
the Shuttle.


After an exhaustive viaduct discussion
last night the city council adopted the
following, offered by Mr.. Hebard:
WHEREAS, The building of the Cen.
trail avenue viaduct has for various reasons
been long delayed, and
WHEREAS, The necessity for the i'm
mediate construction of such yiaduct is
very apparent. therefor be it
RESOLVED, That the mayor and commit
tee on streets and alleys be authorized
and instructed to make any and all ar
rangements necessary for the speedy cree
ton of such viaduct; such arrangements
subject, however. TO the approval OF the
council at its e meeting.
This action was regarded by the coun-
Glmen as a happy solution of the viaduct
question and c~ontehplates the early cree
ton of the high line crossing at Central
avenue and the Snyder street subway.
The committees work will begin this
morning, when President Adams, who is
en- route from Salt Lake to Denver, will
be interviewed.
1t seemed to be the sense of the meet
ing that the city could afford to delay no
longer in fulfilling its part OF tie shop
contract.
THE SUBWAY.
1t was on Mr.. Hebard's motion that the
council agreed to instruct the street and
alley committee to proceed with the con
struction of the Snyder street subway.
Mayor Riner will act with the street and
alley people in the matter.
The subway will coat in the neighbor-
hood of $1,000. 1t was provided for in
the appropriations made last spring, and
its construction sometime this year was
assured at that time. Bids will o be
invited.
POOR THoMEs.
Thomes street was not given the poor
honor Of a passing mention during the
entire discussion on viaduct, crossings
and subway, neither MorrIe. The West
Finders were not represented in the lobby.
If there isn't some tall kicking IN a GER
tam quarter to day all signs fail.
THE LAW ON DEBT.
With a copy of the state constitution In
one hand, a copy of the session laws and
a copy of the Cheyenne ordinances in the
other, City Attorney Potter lucidly ex-
planned the restrictions on bonding and
contracting debt. The city may go to 5
per cent. for water and sewerage and 2
per cent. for yiaduct. Bonds can be
voted only at the stated annual election.
1t is likely that relief will be afforded by
the legislature soon to 10 the
meantime the municipal government must
worry along the best way it can.
Mr.. NJ. L. Keefe is expected to build
the Central avenue viaduct for Sol 900.
1t is likely the Union Pacific will boar a
measure OF the expense.
o'BRIEN's BOND.
WI. B. O'Brien, who is putting in a
new dam and additional cribs at the head
OF the city water system, filed his bond
for $4,000. His sureties are j. w.
Griffin and L.. r. Bresnahen.
These aldermen were present last even
ing: Messrs. jerks, Hebard, Hellman,
Bond, McGregor, Merrill.
