Cheyenne's Ball Team Has Disbanded

The Indians, probably the best bal
nine Cheyenne EVER had, have disband

time. Most Of the players were min

ers did not all agree to come back

best ball teams in the west, and their

Only once in their summers engage.
ments did they show any degree of
weakness and that was in Ogden, and
their playing there is attended with
many extenuating circumstances.
Managers Dinneen, Walker and Ger

keeping the nine together as they did.
The games were literally patronized
and the citizens always responded lib
orally when called upon for encour-
agement.
The record of the Indians for the

A New Safety Match.

A match has at last been discovered
which a be manufactured absolute
ly without the aid of phosphorus. This
safety match contains neither red
nor yellow phosphorus nor a compound
of phosphorus. but possesses the great
advantage of being able to be manu-
featured with the plant and machine
ry hitherto in use. Invention still
strides onward through every line,
and yet there are some things which
seem ~impervious to improvement. For
instance, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
that famous medicine, has stood I'M
equalled for fifty years as a corrective
of stomach disorders. limitations have
sprung up about it, but like a beacon
light, it has stood immovable, point
ing the way to health from all such
ailments as constipation, Indigestion,
dyspepsia, biliousness. sluggish liver

THE GALVESTON DEAD.
The Number Will Reach Fully Seven
Thousand Persons.

Galveston, Texas, Sept. lS.-"The
situation continues to improve" is
what one applies at any of the various
headquarters for information. In fact,
this statement is being made with
gratifying monotony all over the city.
| The work has been brought down to
a business basis as far as possible and
the amount of system and order dis.
played in the various departments
would furnish cause for considerable
surprise to any one who might return
tn Galveston after an absence of three
or four days.
One feature that has caused a bet
ter feeling and a more pronounced
willingness to work is afforded by the
fact that the time" of all the labor
ers is being kept at headquarters. The
men have been assured of compensa-
ton for their labor and quite natural
ly they nov go about their unpleasant
tasks with a much better grace than
heretofore.
Reluctantly one is forced to the
opinion that the number of dead, which
had been placed at 5000 is too low,
and that the number will GO as high
as G,00O, and perhaps even above that
number. The conclusion has not been
reached without considerable thought
and careful investigation. The death
list will reach the total of 4,437 with
the additions sen out today. In addi-
ton to all this. it must be remembered
that only a comparatively small num-
Der of the negroes who persisted in the
storm have been reported. After con.
sidering all these facts, one a hard.
ly do anything else but conclude that
the total to be finally reached will be
above 5000. Every one has tried to
be as conservative as possible in max
ing estimates, both as to the losses of
life and property, but in view of all the
features Of this part of the situation
to be eel now, it is not possible to
reiterate the former estimate of 5000.
Judge Mann stated today that in his
opinion the list would go as high as
1000. The exact number, of course,
will eve be definitely known.

IN THE TWO GREAT HOUSES.
Former Speaker Reed Tells How De
bates Are Controlled.

In this weeks issue of The Saturday
Evening Post is a notable article on
the house of commons by ex-speaker
Thomas B. Reed. 1t gives the clear
est account of that body that has ever
been written. In the course of it he
says:
Formerly there was no limit to dis
cussion in the house or In committee
of the whole.
Such was also the case in the house
of representatives. In both bodies lib.
erty degenerated into license and the
forms of doing business were used to
prevent any business being done. In
both bodies, therefore, the remedy had
to be applied. Debate and the right Of
amendment, and especially debate, had
to be curtailed. The use Of the previ-
Gus question and the report of the
committee on rules with us, and the
closure and the application of the
power Of the government with the En-
glish. has changed both the assemblies
in quite the same way. In the house
Of commons a temporary rule propos-
ed by the leader Of the house has been
tried, limiting to twenty days the dis
cussion and action on the regular ap-

PREM|ER'S PERIL
ANARCHIST CONSPIRACY TO
KILL LORD SALISBURY
DISCOVERED.
Warning Letters Received-Scotland
Yard Detectives are Guarding
Him-A Crowd of Them at the
Railroad Station for His Protec-
tion-Many Suspects Arrested. .

London, Sept. lS.-Lord Salisbury
Great Britain's prime minister, is the
latest man in high official to be marked
for the assassin's bullet.
Despite the strenuous efforts of all
British oficialdom to keep the affair
quiet, it became known today tina the
police are aware of an anarchist con.
spiracy against the life of the prem,
Ter.
They recalled hat the officials at
Rome were forewarned of the plot to
kill Humbert, and profiting by that
terrible experience, the most minute
precautions are being taken to safe
guard the life of Salisbury.
Lord Salisbury reached London this
morning from his country seat, and at
the Kings Cross railway station, where
he landed. there was an imense gath
ering of uniformed police and Scot
land Yard detectives. This formid-
able array of officials arrived early,
long before the train was due, and
eagerly -scrutinized every person in
view.

Several Arrests Made.

Many o. the spectators or loafers
who appeared suspicious to the many
sleuths were subjected to a genuine
Dupin examination. Some whose ex-
plantations were not satisfactory to
these detectives were hustled off to the
police station.
1t is reliably reported that the prem
Ter has recently received numerous
anonymous letters in which he was
warned hat the writer's knew of a
plot to kill the prime minister.
The letters were of such an alarm
ing nature hat he was forced to refer
them to the police. The great demon
stration of detectives at the railroad
station this morning was the result.
