STILL MISSING.
Bamford Was Seen in Cheyenne
About Ten Days Ago.
Deputy Sheriff SharpIess Visits the
Tent on the Northern.
A Horse Herder Seems Now to Be
Classed as Missing.

The question as to what has become of
Thos. Bamford still remains unsolved.
The story told by a tramp about finding
a dead body in a tent near Horse creek
has been proven to be untrue. Yesterday
Deputy Sheriff Sharpless drove out to the
tent to investigate. He found the tent,
but nothing in 1t except a roll of blankets
and an overcoat, together with n number
of cooking utensils. The tent has been
occupied by a horse herder who was look
ing after horses belonging to John Tiunen.
The camp had evidently been deserted for
four or FIVE days but there was no evidence
of a decomposed body having been
around there.
The herd of horses is a good one and the
place where they have been running is
alongside of the track. so it looks rather
strange that the herder should have left
them for such a length OF time. His sad
die and all OF his personal property is
gone. His disappearance is liable to
prove another mystery. The herder's
disappearance NAV probably be explained
by the fact hat Mr.. Tinnen is in Texas
and the hcrder is taking a vacation.
Mr.. Bamford, who lives in Denver,
came to Cheyenne yesterday to help in
the search for his missing son, and left in
the afternoon with Mr.. Tim Farrell for
Silver Crown.
Thomas Bamford was II nervous, excit-
able young fellow of just such a tempera-
meut as to be out Of his head at times.
He was also subject to fits and upon one
occasion last winter he lett the house
while suffering from temporary menta
abel ration and wandered away a few hun
dred yards aud fell in a fit. His partner,
Clark, noticing his strange actions, fol.
lowed and saw him fall. 1t Is possible
that his last disappearance NAV be traced
to the ZANE cause.
Thomas Conroy, who runs the livery
barn on Seventh nth street, IS well ac-
quainted with young Bamford and is al
most certain that he saw him at
his barn about ten days ago.
At the time he was talking to another
party and nodded to Bamford, thinking
he would hang around awhile and he
could talk to him later. He noticed that
he looked rather strange and remarked to
a bystander. "Bamford looks queer today,
| wonder what is the matter with him"
Mr.. Conroy thought no more about it un-
til he saw al account of the disappear.
ance in the papers.
W. f. Garvin also remembers seeing
Bamford in Marks store something like
ten days ago, but cannot remember the
exact date.
Searching parties fron Silver Crown
are still out looking for the missing man,
and if his dead body Is any place near
there they will undoubtedly fad it.

SECOND DECREE.
The Verdict Rendered in the Hem

1t Includes Both %Tregoning and

SpeclAl Dlspatcn 10 Inc Leader.
LANDER. Aug. S.-The most remark
able trial in the history of Fremont count,
and n which has aroused the most wide
spread interest was concluded here today.
1t was the case OF James Tregoning alias
Smith and William Berry, who were tried
Jointly for the murder of George B.
Henderson, range foreman of the II
Cattle company and both of whom were
found guilty of murder in the second
degree.
The case was taken up before Judge
Knight in the district court on Thursday
of last week. All of those directly inter
ested in it looked forward to experiencing
a great deal of difficulty in securing a
jury. 1t was known that the friends of
the indicted men had been particularly
industrious in creating public sentiment
in favor of TregonIng and Berry. While
the crime was generally known to be a
cold b,ooded murder, an effort had been
made to create the belief that there was
extreme justification for its commission il

DEATH is TRANSITION.
The Lesson That Was Given Out at M


The Lesson That Was Given Out at Mrs.
Cooper's Bible Glass.
The lesson of Mrs. COoper's bible class
yesterday Was The Raising Of Lazarus"
1t was discussed with great interest, many
ques tons being asked and opinions offered.
In opening the lesson, Mrs Cooper said the
one great comforting thought is, the grave
cannot hold our beloved. To US, as TO the
weeping Mary, Jesus says: THY brother
shall rise again" Martha was active iii
her sorrow; and grief that can work is
easier TO bear than grief that sits still and
broods. ''WOuldst thou from sorrow find a
sweet relief? Rouse to some work OF high
and holy love" Those who would learn
how to comfort others can learn lesson
from the Master He wept with those so T.
rowing ones he did not reprOach them
for not being resigned. Heart agony makes
quick work of religious commonplace.
Jesus tells Martha that all who are in
Christ have deathless life. The subsistence
Of the physical does not touch the life
eternal. A truly Christlike soul always
feels the sorrows OF others. Az who
have true sympathy will, like Christ,
have grace to help in time of need.
You will notice." continued Mrs. Cooper,
that Jesus sought the help and cooperation
of man when he said, Take We away the
stone Had they not done their part,
doubtless the dead would not have been
raised. JESUS nau sympatllLeu as true
human friend; he was now to show him
self lord over death. And when this was
done the disciples still had their part TO
perform. Jesus said. Loose him and let
him co. Lazarus vas a living man. that
was the essential thing. but he was ham
pered like a dead man, that was the incOn-
venieDt thing. at first blush it would seem
that the power which brought him to life
should have clothed him in beftting APP
parel. But, no; the kindly offices of human
love and friendship were called into requi-
stIon tn perfect the work. There was
something left for friends to do The in
finite event awaits finite service. Loose
himv We are to give freedom and scope
to the mighty power Of God, both in our
selves and in others. Give freedom to spir-
itual life. Let there be no sepulchral
gloom about it. The world is full of
swathed and bandaged Christianity. There
are wonderful powers ana possibilities in
Christian life. Loose them and let them
co. Many resurrected soul is still bound
and fettered Christ would not have it
thus By and By. when life's work is done,
We shall hear the glad command from the
same tender voice, Loose him and let

HOW TO GET RICH.


Rev DIR. Gibson Discourses on Buying
and Selling.
DR.. N. NJ Gibson, pastor of the First
United Presb yterian Church, diseoursed
last evening on the theme How 10 Get
Rich" based ON Proverbs xiii %: Buy
the truth and sell it not" The sermon was
addressed more especially to the Young
PEOPLES Society OF Christian Endeavor.
The speaker opened by calling attention
to the fact that this is a commercial age
that its motto is. Buy, Sell and Get GAIN"
especially the gain. The people were ready
to sell anything, as man said, but his wife
and children; and some would do even that
for gain-yeS, men sell themselves to make
money. So there could be no more prac-
teal truth than that in the text.
His first point was the commodity to be
bought; then what it is valued at, how it is
to be bought and what is TO be done with II.
The sermon was practical all through, and
great emphasis was laid upon the necessity
Of getting the truth on the Gospel plan
without money and without price-giving
up everything that stands in the way of
life and accepting pardon as a gift from
God direct.
There was an after-meeting in the lecture
room which was well attended, and some
ringing testimonies given. Next Sabbath
Will begin the exercises in connection with
the twenty fifth anniversary of the doctors
pastorate. He will at that time give in the
morning service, THE Impressions of

THE FIRE BELL.
A. 4. Ebbett's House Damaged,
But a Poodle Was Saved.

The alarm from Box rs at 80 O'clock
yesterday afternoon was for a fire in the
house Of Arthur NJ. Ebbetts, at the corner
of Jones and Washington streets. The ire
was caused by detective fiue, and broke
out in the rear of the building. After the
sounding of the alarm the engines Of the
district had hard work reaching the scene
of the flames. Engine No. had to have
four extra horses hitched to the usual team
before it could reach the top Of the hill on
which the house is situated. When they
arrived another difficulty was experienced
in the lack of water, there being but few
hydrants in the vicinity. Long lines of
hose had TO be run for distance of over a
block The flames, however, were soon
under control, being confined TO the kitchen
and basement Of the residence. Mr.. Eb-
BETS has lived in the house for years, and
the re sidence is one of the old-time man.
sions. The DANA &c to the building is esti-
mated at $3.50, and $500 is supposed to
cover the loss OF the personal effects. Had
n strong wind been blowing nothing could
have saved the house with the lack Of water
facilities and the time occupied by the
engines in getting to the fire. Isaac Milli-
ken resided in the second part of the house,
but his abode was not damaged to the same
extent as that part inhabited by MIR. Eb-
belts. The family Of Mr.. Ebbetts was away
at the time. One of the ladies of the house
was much exercised over the fate of a
favOriIe dog named TOpsy, aud dispatched
several firemen TO its rescue on the upper
floor. which was filled with smoke. The
tiremen fund the dog kicking its last hay-
ing been almost sutfOcated, but managed to
save 1t. When the dog was given to its
owner she Rugged 1t TaDturously, and paid
no more attention to the burning house.
