STORY OF a. FESTIVE NIGHT.

CheyenEe men now in Salt Lake who
attended the ball given in honor Of the
Inauguration OF Gov. Richards in Janu-
airy, 1895, have had their recollections
Of that happy social event treshened by
the appearance here Of a man who play
ed an important part in a festive Feat
ure O. the occasion. Al Lou~derbach,
who is now selling Turkish rugs here,
was hen living in the Wyoming CAPT
tai. He was using his versa lie eloquence
In ~disposing Of a stock Of haberdashery,
much OF which came to Cheyenne on the
first Union Pacific train. Louderbach
didn't bring 1t there. Another man. less
wise. did that. Louderbach was there
TO sell it. That he succeeded Is regret
ted to this day by such beaux as Jack
Flynn. Charley Erswell, George Greg
Dry. Johnny Kelly. Max Meyer, Phil
Idelman. Paul Bailey and Bob Breckons.

gangrened neckwear Of a generation ago
and paper collars galore. which Louder

The night OF the big ball-it was held
in the ENTHUSIASTICALLY who
amounted to anything in town was on
hand. Every window OF the capitol
building glowed with light. In many
Of the retiring officers suites collations
had been spread for the dedication OF
friends when wearied by dancing in
either OF the big bathrooms. All the
evening the Office OF DR.. A. w. Barber,
whose as secretary OF state
had that day been sworn in. was crowd
ed with friends. Barber, previous to
his election, had been a physician in
practice at Douglas. He knew every
cowboy in central Wyoming, and hay
ing done good turns for most OF them,
had the friendship of all. Even when
as acting governor, after Mr.. Warren's
resignation Of the gubernatorial chair
the militia at the time OF the johnson
county raid, Barber lost little Of the
esteem in which he was held. The
night Of his departure from office every
body who knew him apparently want
ed to wish him god-speed. About IL
O'Clock there vast a gay crowd in his
former offices. There were federal and
state officers. business and professional
men and others OF high and low de-
gree. The collation. was in active ser
vice. 1t was a typical western COLA
ton, by the way. no fork being required
for its consumption. only a small glass
and a gurgle. In the private office a
select crowd OF congenial spirits had
been for an hour swapping stories. Fin
ally the buck" reached Louderbach and
he began:
Forty years ago in southern Cali
fornia a band OF robbers sat beneath
the redwood trees around their camp
fires counting UP their days spoils.
Leaning against a tree a young robber
stood. His arms were folded across his
breast. His face was sad and sorrow-
full. The captain Of the band came up
and slapped him on the Jack and said:
Jack, old boy. tell us one OF those sto-
ries Of yours. 1t may cheer us up q
Bit Jacks face Immediately brighten
ed, and he commenced this weird and
wonderful tale: Forty years ago in
southern California etc"
Louderbach went on repeating the
story. and when he reached the clause

There are no Young men," and CORE
spondents tell how even a freshman
from a reputable university is eagerly
sought after. The number of girls who
have passed the first quarter OF a CEN
fury of their lives and who see nothing
but a lonely future before them is be-
coming alarmingly large. Parents are
now glad to bestow their daughters on
men who 10 years ago they would have
considered genteel paupers, and they are
being gradually forced toward the Eu-
ropsan plan Of giving dOwries with their
daughters. This is certainly opposed
to what used to be regarded as the Amer
lean idea, viz. that parents should not
be called upon to lmpoverish themselves
during their lifetime, and that children
even Of the wealthiest need expect little
az the time OF marriage.
Searchers after the cause Of this state
of AFFAIRS will be met by two explana-
tons: n made by women-the selfish
ness OF men; the other made by men
the selfshness and extravaganza Of the
modern young society woman. The
writer who aims at popularity would
certainly adopt the former: but the per-
son who. at hazards, seeks the truth,
will infallibly be driven toward the lat

telephone his wife to that effect. In Or

up at the very last moment before he

SUPERB
WAS THE SACRED MUSICAL
CONCERT.
The Program Heard by a Large
Audience at the Presbyterian
Church Sunday Night.

Tho sacred musical concert given
by the choir complimentary to Mrs.
Y. l. Anderson. at the First Presby-
terian Church Sunday night was
attended by large and highly
pleased audience
The program was excellent, aid
participated in by our most noted
local musicians.
The most pleasing feature Of the
occasion was the singing OF Mrs.
Anderson, which was truly superb,
and It is to be doubted ii sweeter
voice has been heard in this city
since the noted visit OF the celebrated
songstress, Ellen Beach Yaw. Mrs.
Anderson possesses q highly euti-
waited soprano voice. and her selec-
tions were highly enjoyd by all for
tunate enough To be present last
night
Not Ashamed OF Jesus" by Mrs.
NJ e. Bloom. was also pleasingly
rendered. Airs. Bloom has a very
sweet soprano voice, and her seIee-
tion Inst evening was highly enjoyed.
Nearer My God to Thee, by
Mrs. Maud STANLEY, was also a pleas
Ing feature. Mrs STANLEY possesses
a very rich contralto voice.
Mrs. " H. Langiord presided at
the organ, and so skillfully did she
manipulate the keys that 1t is diff
cult to say whether the audience was
most inter es ted in the singing or the
pipe-organ. Mrs. Langford is a
most accomplished musician and
her efforts are always highly enjoyed.
Neverwas the organ more melodious
than ON this occasion.
The sermon preached by the Rev
j. l.. Calwell was in keeping with the
occasion. Praise" was his theme.
and he bundled his subject in an able
and most interesting manner.
The entire program was highly
enjoyable. and those who were pres
