How a Red-Bearded Man Was

BlaiSdell.

Old Fort Fettermar, or what is left OF
the post, stands upon a tableland which
Overlooks a beautiful basin and the
North Platte river. The buildings Of
the fort are crumbling. SagebruSh has
sprung up in the walks. and the cactus
in the parade ground is now green and
rank. says the Chicago Herald. Fetter-
man is an abandoned post. The soldiers
moved away from there years ago.
Only one man lives at the place now.
He is a stout fellow, with face as red
as one of the spring sunsets of
the country and as unkempt as
the hair of town lout. He has
few visitors. The days come and the
days 90 without bringing to this man
single thing to break the mOnOtOny of his
life. Years ago the soldiers returned to
the post and removed from the cemetery
the dead bodies of their comrades. Some
of the brave fellows were killed in
fights with Indians. Others had taken
their own lives. while still others had
died from natural causes. The bodies
that remained in the quiet graveyard
were those of civilians. They died
as many of the soldiers had done,
but there was nobody to take them
away, ana so they were left to lie in the
shadow of the ruins of the post and
where the cayOtes run at night. The
headStOneS at these graves are grimly
humorous. They are of wood, with the
names of the occupants of the tombS
carved upon their surface. The letters
are not regular. They do not belong to
the same font. Here is an italic ii and
L 4 tn
gether that the name is as irregular as
was tie life of the man whose memory
they were made to perpetuate.
Over in one corner of the graveyard
is sunken grave where a curlew was
thruSting its slender bill. The head
board read: "Pete Stevenson, Killed
by Timber JIM" To the right, and
where the cactus grows thickest, is an
other board with this inscription, BILL
Apple, Suicided by SiX-Shooter."
Timber Jim," whoever he may have
been, may not have started this frontier
graveyard, but ne had much to do with the
prosperity of the civilian corner of the
Enclosure. For here and there was
headstOne with the name of one of his
victims, and always ending in the same
grim way, Killed by Timber JIM"
There were no dates nor days carved
upon the boards. mat would nave
taken too much time. And who would
care anyhow whether Bill Bates died on
Thursday, March 81, 1887, or on Friday,
March %. 1887?
One old story started from this grave
yard. Bill Barlow, who was a great
man about Fetterman when the post
amounted to something. was striking
across the country late one night when.
exhausted from his long ride he drew
rein on his bronco and alighted. The
night was so dark that Barlow, familiar as
he was with every basin and draw of the

GREATEST OF rENORs.
Edward Lloyd Will Sing at the
Peoples Early Next Month.

EuWarQ LlOyO Will Ding aC Cne
Peoples Early Next Month.
Edward Lloyd, the great English
tenor who appears at the Peoples
church Thursday, June 2, is universally
regarded in musical circles as one of the
greatest tenors in the world, and with
out any dispute as the greatest tenor of
the English-speaking race. He has won
such notable triumphs in the great ora
tOriO festivals in the various cities of
England that it is considered that no
festival takes the first rank unless Lloyd
sings the tenor solos. In the great
Handel OratoriO performances at the
Crystal Palace, he is easily the leading
star. His tour in this country
is necessarily brief because he
is billed to return in June
to fill his engagements at the Crystal
Palace, which is the greatest center of
Oratoric music that has ever been estab
lished. Here he will be surrounded by
a chorus of 5000 voices, which will be
balanced by an orchestra of 500 inStru-
mentS. When a man can shine out in
the midst of such a setting as that as
the bright particular star. it readily
stamps his genius as belonging to the
first rank. Lloys is not only great
Oratorio singer, but he is equally at
home In ballad singing. He is not one
of the singers who can simply take high
notes; for besides that the marvellous
range and purity of his voice, his
enunciation and defamation are so per-
feet as to appeal to the intelligence
while they delight the ear, for every
word is distinctly heard without any ef-
fort On the part of the listener.

JULIA ARTHUR,

In pntting together the stock compa-

care, his efforts being in the direction
of giving to the theater goers of this
city the best company that has ever
been seen in the Northwest. For the
position of leading lady he has, by spe-
cial arrangement with A. NJ. Palmer,
secured Miss Julia Arthur, than whom
no actress on the American stage has
achieved greater success or attained
in so short time. Miss Arthur has, dur
