There is a piece of property on thu
prairie near Rock Creek over which tn,
Union Pacifice company has not placed
a guard to prevent its being carried
away. 1t is a piece of armor plate ant
weighs GO 900 pounds. In a rear-ent
collision at that station Tuesday nigh
the car on which the plate was being
shipped was overturned and the heavy
mass of steel was thrown twenty fee
from the track. A big steam derricl
has been used once without success il
an endeavor to raise the weighty mass
which is not so large as its enormous
weight would lead one to suppose. 1t.
dimensions are - feet 3 inches IL
length, by 8 feet in width, and Is inche.
in thickness. This m plate is to b.
placed on the battleship Wisconsin
which is now being built on the Pa.
cific coast. A large number of car!
containing these plates have passed
through Laramie during the past week
enroute from the east to San Francisco
A young couple residing on the Yves
Side, for whom the course of true low
has not been running smoothly Of late
got into an alteration last night, ar
their troubles were aired in police cour
today before Justice Fitch. 1t appear,
the young man has not been as atten
tive as the young lady desires and wher
they met last evening she took hold o
the lapel OF his coat to prevent him from
leaving her. This the y. m. resented
by a %resounding slap or the cneek o
the fair one. who returned the compll
ment by splitting in the face of her erst
while adorer. A scrimmage followed
in which the young mans necktie wa!
torn from him. and while endeavorint
to regain his clothing the now
thoroughly excited but not loving swaiI
threw his ex-sweetheart to the grount
and knelt on her PROSTATE form, doing
as she AYERS, great bodily injury. The
combatants were finally separated by
the spectators and the young man paid
a IS fine this morning for assault and
battery.
