Grown IN Wyoming and F%attened bv
Its Rich Grass.

There has been a sort of friendly dis
cussion between stockmen In various
parts of the country, as to whether cattle
fed exclusively upon Wyoming grass
would make ordinary beef. Advocates of
the corn fed beeSes ridiculed the assertion
and affirmed that corr was not only the
most substantial food for cattle, but tn at
they could be fattened upon nothing else.
Mr.. West Meyer has undoubtedly forever
put a quietus TO that discussion. Yester-
day Mr.. Moyef had brought to this city
thiity-eight head of fine 3-year-old steers.
They were reared at his Horse creek
ranch, were nearly fullbloeded Herefords
and in expressive parlance they were as
fiat as butter"
The cattle were fed nothing whatever
but hay grown upon Mr.. Meyers ranch,
he doing it more as an experiment than
anything else. They were slaughtered
soon after their arrival in the city and
were as fat, as tender and as fine as any
cattle fattened upon anything. To show
the strength of Wyoming grown hay it
only needs to be said that it gives a de-
licious favor to the beef, fattens stock
rapidly aud is economical withal.

JAIL AND HOSPITAL NOTES.
MIIIer's Toes Amputated-- RudzInsky's
CondItion--JOhnson all Right

Charles Miller was yesterday afternoon
subjected to a surgical operation. and DR..
Wyman, the county physician, %amputated
all the toes on his right too. 1t was
thought for several days while Miller was
confined at the county hospital that no
amputation would be necessary but since
he was taken to the Jail the frozen feet
assumed some very radical changes and
it is highly probable that more amputa-
ton will take place before the young
bucaneer is pronounced cured.
The toes were cut off close to the foot.
with Just enough flesh left to cover the
stubs. Miller bore the operation with
remarkable fortltude, and in his charac-
terlstic manner wanted to know of any
more %"cuttin' would have to be done"
Paul Rudzinskv. the semi ~lunatic, who
was picked up last Monday morning In an
unconscious condition by a ranchman
near Egbert and brought to the hospital
lies there in a horrible condition. He
suffers untold agonies and it will vet be
several days before he will get relief. DR..
Wyman thinks it unwise to cut his feet
yet awhile and he will get very little rest
until the paralyzed part is amputated.
The physician says his condition is
much worse than either Miller's or john
sons and, besides his feet being frozen
his left ear is also frozen. He will
probably loose both feet.

Society at Fort Russell seems to be
taking a rest after the many festivities
ushering in the New Year.
On Tuesday evening the high five
club was DELIGHTFULLY."- entertained by
Lieut.. and Mrs. Cheynowith. The play
ers we're: Capt. and Mrs. Rogers, Lieut..
and Mrs. Dowdy, Lieut.. and Mrs. Grum.
ley, Lieut.. and Mrs. Durfee, Lieut.. and
Mrs. Schoeffel, Mrs. Capt. Green, Mrs.
Capt. Roberts. Mrs. Lieut.. Wren, and
Mr.. Chas. Roberts.
Mr.. Roberts was decidedly the best
man in the party and won the cup in a
canter. Mrs. Wren won the spoon with
Mrs. Dowdy a close second.
On Thursday Lieut.. aud Mrs. Schoefel
entertained Capt. and Mrs. Roberts and
Capt. and Mrs. Rogers at dinner.
On Friday Lieut.. and Mrs. Grumley
gave a dinner In honor of the young
ladies and bachelors of the garrison. The
guests were Miss Greene. Miss Egbert,
Miss McClintock and Miss Eaton and
Messrs. Kerr, Frier. Lyon, Donovan and
HardawaY.
The usual semi-weekly hop was given
in the post hall Wednesday evening. The
dancers were few but very gay.
The matinees in the adiutant' office
given from 9 to 10 a. m. though eagerly
attended by every officer, are horribly dis
appointing, for when the bugle sounds
drill call the curtain drops, and still there
are no orders to embark for Chile. Very
amusing are these matinees. The officers
vie with one another to get the front
seats. They come bounding in and at
once call for the news. Each one asks:
"Wha does The LEADER say?" The
answer is, The presidents message has
not been released" Then the same old
talk is talked again. How long is Chile;
how many men can she put into the field
in thirty day: how large u force can she
supply with ammunition; are the senori-
ta's tall; would they be gracious or would
they make Chile so hot we could not eat
it, can many speak Engllsh?" etc. So 1t
goes till the blackboard brings the mail.
Then every one rushes to the postofice
and there is a scramble for THE LEADER;
its columns are eagerly scanned, but it is
the same old story. Judge Advocate
Remy is writing his report. There has
been another cabinet meeting; Blaine was
silent or sick, and the president will send
his message to congress in a day or two.
The bugle sounds the call to go to drill,
everybody says d and rushes away to
endure another twenty-four hours of
anxiety for news
Mrs. Ofiey. widow of the late Col.
Robt. 81. Ofiey of the 10th infantry,
stopped in the city Tor a few hours yes.

Cramps of the muscles cured.

John l. Wood OF Stratford, Ont, was
cured of cramps in the legs by wearing
Allcock's Porous Plasters. Mr.. Wood
says.
Some three months ago L was taken
very sick with severe pain in the small of
INV back over the kidneys. The pain was
excruciating. l applied an Allcock's
Porous Plaster over the affected region
and had relief almost within an hour. At
the same time. in conjunction with this
trouble, | had very great nervous distur
bance, affecting my legs with cramps so l
could hardly sleep. Meeting with such
success with my back l applied a plaster
under the knee Oh each leg, and in three
days was completely cured, and have
never been troubled in either way since"

terdaY, en- route to Fort Niagara, where
she will paw an extended visit to her
daughter, Mrs. Robertson. wife of Capt.
K. L. Robertson, medical department,
United States army. Mrs. Ofley is a
woman of rare loneliness OF character and
possesses the esteem and affection and the
deep sympathy of all the 18th infantry,
as was evidenced Yesterday by the ladies
and officers of the regiment coming down
en- masse and paying their respects and
wishing her God speed. She and her
lsmented husband will ever live in the
hearts Of the regiment and Its best wishes

Typewriung Contest.

Charley Erswell has about completed
arrangements for a typewriting contest.
1t will take place at a date vet to be fixed,
and probably at Ogden. The contestants
will be Miss Bessie Flint of the Cheyenne
telegraph Office. and the two young lady
typewriters at Ogden and San Francisco
respectively. Each of the contestants
will transcribe with the typewriter 20, 900
words from the tape as it comes from the
Wheatstoue instrument, that is, Inscribed
in a modification of the old Morse /tele-
graphic alphabet. Miss Flint takes the
press report for the Cheyenne morning
papers aud if she is beaten in such a
contest the winner will certainly earn all
the honor and glory which will go with
the victory.

Twelfth wedding Anniversary.

Mr.. and Mrs, John F. Crowley gave a
reception last evening in honor of the
twelfth anniversary of their wedding.
Dozens of their friends called during the
evening and rendered their congratula-
tions. Nearly everyone present brought
some sort of a precious little souvenir
in honor of the occasion. The popular
host and hostess had a good word TOR all,
and the evening passed all too quickly.
Music, dancing and refreshments we're a
pleasing feature of the social.

INCREASING THE FORCE
Satisfactory Record of the Chey-
enne Shops for the Past Year.
The Pay Roll Now Foots up a
Thousand Dollars a Day.


The past year has been an important
one in the Cheyenne shops. 1t has
demonstrated that work can be done here
Just as cheaply as in Omaha or Denver,
and this combined with the central loca-
tiun Of Cheyenne with reference to the
system, account for the fact that the
facilities and force are being rapidly
strengthened. The Day roll at the shops
now mounts to $1,000 a day. During
the past year the force has been steadily
increased each month. The output COM
pares favorahly with any point on the
system. A great deal of manufactured
material is being made in the way Of axles
and other foreings. much of which is
shipped TO all parts of the system. Chey-
enne is therefore rapidly becoming a dis
tributing center for all points west.
The blacksmith shop is now worked al
most to Its fullest capacity and a night
force will probably soon be put on to op-
crate the steam hammers.
The prospects are good for opening the
car shops in the spring for the repair of
all passenger coach equipments. All such
work is now done at either Omaha or
Denver. This would mean a large in
crease IN the force of skilled mechanics
now employed. With this work once in
operation Cheyenne would soon handle
the most OF it for the whole system.
There Is now everv prospect of very
busy times at the shops when spring
opens. The accumulation of wrecked en-
zines at Cheyenne is beyond the capacity
Of the present force to cope with. so that
an increase is Immediately necessary. The
work of building new engines from the
ground up has been commenced, with re-
suits which are more than satisfactory.
