I A recent issue ot the Denver Times contains the following story. Some of our readers may remember the owner ot the mule: 'This religious craze that is going over the West is a good thing for the conscience funds of the rail roads and it helped us out the other day to the extent of thirty dollars," Bald John R, Manchester, general claim agent of the Union Pacific, at the Oxford hotel last night. "In the spring of 1896 one ot our trains killed a mule near North Platte. The man sent in a bill for $150. John Keith, then our. claim adjuster, went out to investi gate, andj'finally recommended that twenty-five dollars be allowed. I made out ja voucher for this amount but the mau wouldn't accept it. lie declared 'that the mule was a youngster and worth fully $150 and declared that we would have to pay that sum. Mr. Keith had the mule exhumed and inspected the teeth and found them all worn down. We stuck to the twenty-five dollar offer. 'The case dragged albng, the man threatening suit. We finally became pretty well-convinced that the man had placed the mule in a culvert where it was struck by our train and killed, but wc couldn't prove it. However, we refused to pay $150. It was late in 1897, near ly a year alter the mule waB killed, that "Buffalo Bill" w.ib in North Platte. That'a his home and they urned the town wide open. Gamb ling devices ran open. Mr. Keith was in North Platte at the time. The owuer of the mule saw Mr. Keith and said that he had lost all his money and if Mr. Keith would give him thirty dollars in cash he would sign a complete release for -all damages about the death oi the mule. Mr. Keith gave him the money, received the uccessiry pa pers aud a week later the mule in cident was closed no tar as the claim department was concerned. "About three weeks ago I got a letter from the owner of the dead mule. He now lives in Pueblo. He said that, he had got religion and hoped to live long enough to square himself on earth with man, He said that he had obtained a good deal of money fraudulently and went on to say that he had placed bis mule in a culvert to be killed by a Union Pacific train so that he could delraud the company out ot money. He enclosed thirty dollars whicu lie said did not belonir to mm and added that he owed the com pany interest but could not pay at present. "I turned tuc tinny dollars over to the conscience tund and I guess the killing ot a mule near North Platte six years ago is now really a closed incident unless he should pay the interest." About Country People Bailey Leach, who had been working with the Shoup hay outfit at the Cody ranch, had his left arm broken at the elbow a lew days ago. Joe Little, who for a number ol years has liyed iu the north part of tins county, purchased tue Com mercial livery stable at Gaudy and will run a billiard hall in conncc tiou therewith.

It is with pleasure that Manager Lloyd announces the appearance at the opera house on Thursday, Sep tember 4th, ot the jolly comedy suc cess, "iicllo Bill," that extremely funny concoction of funny lines and humorous situations from thclacilc pen of Willis Maxwell Goodhue, which for the past three years has made the entire eastern country Bhrick with laughter. To tell the numerouc funny situations of "Hello Bill" would be practically mp'osBible, they follow otic another With such startling rapidity aa to keep his auditor constantly mysti fied aa to how the author can possi bly get his characters out of the seemingly impenetrable maze into which he has enmeshed them. But le does and his manner of doing so i said to display one of the most cleverly constructed farcial Conic-. dies ever presented. For this sea sonM tour of "Hello Bill" new songB have been added, mauy new and extremely witty lines interpo lated, and a company secured which, it is claimed, cannot be ex celled by any similar organization on the road. It is headed by the eminent comedian Harry Corson Clark, whose ability is too we'll" known to require mention, nu'd who has been induced to abandon hit starring tour this season only at what is said to be the most flatter- ng financial consideration ever offered under like circumstance and his astdtant i.un-makers com prise such clever people as S.
