V An exchange says that at Cody, the new town founded by Buffalo Bill, a hotel is badly needed and the railroad people have been want ing Colonel Cody to build one ever since the road was completed. He has been occupied with starting up liln hIiow again and this has made him indifferent to the hotel propo sition. He remembered it all at once not long ago, buying off-hand in New York a collection of oil paintings said to be worth $20,000 and pending them on to be stored n a barn pending the erection of the building. The railroad people arc now satisfied that the hotel will come in due time. Alter an ante ot that kind Coloucl Codv will hardly feel like throwing down his hand.
