NrE IN COMING.
The Real Purpose of His Visit to he
Pacific Coast.

Pacific Coast.
1t is pretty generally known that the
Bill Nye is about to make Il
tour of the Pacific coast, and by the
way, it is understood Bismarck is to be
honored with his presence, accompanied
by that celebrated bald.dome Of thought,
his "Think Tank" as William calls it.
1t has been given out that the pur-
pose Of this trip is to find fresh material
for his weekly newspaper letter, and in
%cidentally to give II limited series of
entertainments in connection with his
side partner in mirth, A. p. Burbank.
But the tribune has it through con
fdential sources that this is not the real
object Of his visit to the great west. 1t
seems in his days of poverty, William,
like many great men before him, owned
a dog. It was Of the usual yellow,
mongrel order, which grew so plentifully
around Laramie, Wyo., back in the 70's.
Now, this dogs name was Enty-
mology; and during the day he was
want to lie around the Boomerang office,
varied with a stroll through the streets
of that metropolis in search Of stray
cats, smaller dogs and boys; aud at
night it was his habit to hold lengthy
and uproarious "monologue entertain
ments," with the man in the moon as
audience, much to the disturbance of
and sorrow of the wakeful citizens. But
n day Entomology started westward
ho' from Laramie, accompanied by ear
splitting howls, and a TIN can on his
cauaal appendage, accelerated by cries
of exultation from numerous citizens.
But Bill bewailed his loss with tears and
lamentations; he also store his hair"
which accounts for the oasis of his latter
day Uranium. And. now that he has
reached a state of atfluence his mind aud
s%ympathies revert to the companion of
his early days, and he has decided to
make a search throughout the west for
little Entomology; and, if he is success.
full, the dogs declining days shall be
passed in plenty and happiness, far from
the maddenlng haunts Of small boys and
tin cans. Any one knowing anything of
the whereabouts of little Entymology,
will confer a favor by putting himself in
immediate communication with the fes-
tive William. Manager Wakeman has
made arrangements for Nye and Bur-
bank to stop at Bismarck some time in
April, aud the news is pleasing to all
who are so constituted as to enjoy genu.
inc humor.
h w. G. t. U. Case Settled.
The now long pending case of the w.
G. T. U. VS.. Linda W. Slaughter, a suit
for the possession of the reading room
now occupied by Mrs. Slaughter as a
residence, which has hung fire and been
aired and REARED in the courts has been
at last decided, and the w. @. T. U. are
at last victorious. The decision has been
made by Judge Winchester and gives
the W. G. 7. U. the possession of the
building.
The property, furniture, ETC., inside
the building at the time it was taken
possession Of by Mrs. Slaughter was
yesterday %replevined, a list being given to
the sheriff, who made search, and found
nearly all the property described in the
list. This has been taken possession of
by the sheriff. The ladies of the W. G.
I. o. feel quite gratifed at the decision,
as the case has been rather an unpleas-
ant one.
Mrs. Slaughter has asked for a stay of
proceedings for twenty days,in the W. G.

application for a new trial. The replevln
case will also be contested.
