Dexter MeetsYves.

saw on Broadway, just in front of old
st. Paul's church, a strange meeting be-
tween two men who yesterday passed as
strangers. but two years ago we're at each
others throats. The one young, almost
callow-looking, specialized, CARRIED in spot
less Easter raiment was Henry 8. Ives.
Almost against his shoulder brushed
stern, sedate parsonage, 80 straight he al
most leaned backward, as solemn az a
Presbyterian Sabbath, and in raiment
clerical enough in both cut and hue. This
was julius Dexter, whose father used to
be rectifier of whisky in Cincinnati. My
grandfather used to buy his whisky, I
remember, for harvesting and mechanical
purposes. Ives looked %, the Cincinnati
man So yet the younger gave the elder
points in the great Cincinnati. Hamilton
az Dayton railroad fight. Dexter comes
from Cincinnati to New York every month
or two. He didn't appear to recognise
Ives, whom he had done more than any
other one man to imprison. And if Ives
knew his prosecutor didn't see any signs
OF it. The c., II. d d. road, by the way,
is to vote on Q proposition early in May to
issue 10000 shares of new stock and sell
them for money to build a second track

in the same abundance and as coEven-
iently and economically, as people now
obtain their water supply. Yoa may

$50, 900 here and will not stop at that.
but continue to expend money until it has
things in shape to suit it.
We propose to put up handsome

MILLER RAPIDLY IMPROVING.
Will Not Lose HIS Feet--KIngen's Re-
mains Still at the Morgue.

There we're no new Developments IN the
escapade of Charley Miller, the boy
double murderer, yesterday. A LEADER
reporter visited HIM at the county
hospital and he was resting comparatively
easy. The hospital authorities say that
Miller will be able to eat "douRhnuts"
before many days. He is improving as
rapidly as any one possibly could and yes
terday vas able to partake pretty heartily
of stimulants, SOUP, milk and toast. 1t
is now thought he will lose nothing but
his toes, which are frozen, and it is highly
probable that not more than two of these
will have to be amputated. Miller is dis
posed to sleep most of the time. That
tact doubtless accounts for the rapid
strides he is making toward recovery.
The following dispatch was received by
Sheriff Kelley yesterday from a brother
of Miller who is a printer in a little Office
in a Kansas country town:
'LEoNARDsvLLE, Jan. SIS my
brother Charley dying? Let me know
the truth. FRED A. MILLER
Sheriff Kelley at once wired Fred
Miller that Charley was not dying but
that he was sure to ecover.
The hospital authorities say Miller can
be taken to the Jail in q very few days.
KINaEN's REMAINS.
The remains of VIM. Kingen are still
at the undertaking establishment and no
requests as to their disposal have been re-
ceived by the officials. In fact, not a
word has been heard from Mrs. Kingen,
but Kingen's brother George, who lives at
York. Neb., wired the sheriff yesterday
morning asking if his brother was dead.
The sheriff wired him the full particulars
in the case. Some disposition will prob
ably be made of the remains today.

sNEAKED THE BANK ROLL.
A Thief Escapes from Cheyenne But Is
Caught En- Route TO Denver.

A bank roll amounting to 500 was
stolen from West Meyers early yesterday
morning. This sun is held out of the
receipts of the roulette wheel each day for
change. 1t is always placed 10 a sack BY
the man in charge of the wheel and
turned over to the bartender for safe
keeping. In closing up business yester
day morning this bag OF money was for
gotten by the man in charge of the wheel
but ten minutes after he had gone the
bartender noticed the TACT and went to
the wheel to look for 1t.
A few minutes before two men had
been asleep in chairs in that part of the
room. One of them was now missing.
The roulette caller was sent for and at
once decided that tho thief was a man
who had loafed about the place for the
past W nights. He rushed for the
depot but the three trains going North
South and East had already departed.
He then telegraphed to the conductor on
each train a description of the thief.
Soon after a telegram was received from
the conductor of the Denver train sayirg
the man was aboard and would be given
in charge of an officer in Denver.
Sheriff Kelley left for there last even
ing ond will return this afternoon. The
thief had 500 of money in his possession.
