Free Again.
Thoee of our people who visited
the Waterman last night to witness
th presentation of the beautiful
little operetta "Neta," were most
agreeably entertained. It is seldom
tliat an amateur performance
reaches the high state of perfection
that distinguished lust night's ben
efit, and no it ia a matter of pleasure
to give to it the credit its merit de
serves. Without exception it was
elegantly presented. The princi
pal characters were sustained by
Miss Lucile Simpson, Miss Nannie
Woore, Mrs. George Dovey and
Hrs Charles Johnson in a very
raoable manner. No one of these
fair ladies can be rated
above the other so far as
Ability is concerned, as all are
npjally at home with their parts,
K. C. Ciiitlunan, the prince, dis
jruised as a Gypsy, captured the
iou.'e with his funny acting and
merited deserved applause. The
aiinor characters were well bus-
mined, and the chorus was a dream
f beauty and a poem of motion.
The scenic effects were well put on,
aud several very beautiful tableaux
-wlded- to the glory of the scene.
ilie Plisses Dovey and new, in
their various dances, called forth
"At id and prolonged applause which
vas well deserved. Too much
praise cannot be bestowed on F. C.
Bushman, the manager 6f the enter
tainment,' for the excellent manner
f the presentation, although, if we
zuay judge from vhnt we under
land of the financial consideration,
Ve has been amply repaid for his
labors. The operetta will be per
formed again to-night, and we ad
ise those who have not seen it to
go and spend an enjoyable eve-
aing.
A Serious Accident.
A painful and serious accident
occurred yesterday afternoon three
miles south of Avoca, this county.
John Leppers, a young man 18 years
f aire who works on the farm for

Seams that 3'oung Lepper had gone

TV'hile enjoying this pastime the ac
cident ocenrred, the gun bursting,
blowing part of the barrel almost
through the arm just above the
wrist, snlinterimr the larjre bone
wry badly. The weapon he was
booting with was a very old pat
Acrn. The burstingof the gun filled
His face full of powder, but the at
tending ph3-eician does not seem to
ihink his vyee were injured. Grave
&ars are entertained by the phy-
aacian as to saving the arm, al--duugh
it may not be necessary to
-rmputate it.

at once sought the jail where Cap
tain Yocum was confined. The lat

jptaiu Yocum turned the pardon
ver to Sheriff Crane and the three

nothing occurred to indi

wmiid take place, and the last chap

The war in Wyoming between the
sheriff and Governor Harbour
still pending. The following dis
patch, dated Cheyenne, Wyoming,
ia taken from a morning paper:
That now historic wire of the
Wyoming Inland Telegraph com
paii3", that used to pulsate with
news from the seat of the rustler
conflict, has been shot down since
Saturday. News from Johnson
county is brought to Douglas by
the mail carrier and sent here bv
wiae. The "dead wire has been re
duced by the thieves, who hope
now, emboldened by their victory
at the "T A" ranch, to muster a suf
ficient force to take the prisoners of
war from five, companies of the
United States armyat Fort McKin
ney. ..More' 'than a thousand rust
lers and their friends, including
Sheriff Angus and deputies, are en
camped about the post,' and only
fear of heavy loss in a collision re
strains them from making a rush
on Fort McKinney. They are will
ng to pay almost any price for th
half dozen unarmed men of W6l
cott'a command. At several ranch
es visited in riding . from the
country; men were heard ad vocat
in the skinning and burning alive
of the men on the list. The depth
of their hatred, and vindictiveness
is marvelous. It is not because
Champion and Ray were killed es
pecially, but it is based on the
broad ' and peculiar premise that
there must be no interference with
rustling.
Governor Barbour says to-night
that he has requested General
Brooke to deliver the prisoners in
this city. Colonel Van Horn will
start when he feels thatthe overland
trip to Douglas can be made with
safety. It is feared now the rustlers
will burn ranches and murder men
who have been inactive. There is
much feeling against the foremen,
who are believed to have known of
the movement and kept still.
The trial of Dr. Charles Bingham
Penrose, the Philadelphia pli3i-
cian, which was to have been held
to-day, was postponed until Thurs-
da3 owing to the inability of the
Johnson county authorities to be
present. In an interview the doctor
says he left the invading party at
Tisdale's ranch on the second day
out on account of sickness. He
strenuously denies having been
with his party at the killing of
Champion and Ra3.
Dud Champion, brother of one of
the dead men, is at Buffalo. He left
Johnson county last fall because he
felt this coming. Dud now sa3's
he only wants a look at each mem
ber of Wolcott's part3" and he will
remember them all and may have a
chance to get even. The fellow is a
fighter, as are two other brothers of
the famil3'. One is a fugitive from
justice.
1 Here are now in C he'enne two
ranch farmers of Johnson county;.
two miners, Ma3ror Barritt of Buffa
lo, H. R. Mann, receiver of the land
office, and Thomas Bouton, editor
of the Kcho. all vjtra'nl for their lives
to venture to their homes and prop
erty. All have been warned. Sheriff
Angus still refuses to deliver the
expedition teamsters to Colonel Van
Horn.
The Rock3' Mountain News of
Denver, has just received a bulletin
from Casper, Wyo., saying that two
men, badly wounded, arrived there
this afternoon and relate an exciting
story of the burning of Champion
and Ra3'b3- cattlemen. The bulletin
is meagre and ever3r effort is being
made to obtain the particulars.

of an unknown shape Governor
Boj-d refused to accept Mr. Powers'
resignation as secretar3 until a set
tlement could be secured all around.
As ever3-thing is now in a satisfac-
toi-3" condition, made so by the re
port of President Strang, the resig

vacancy was filled 3 esterday b3 the
appointment of another indepen
