The prospects for a heavy litigation
over the Circle ranch property and cat
tle are at present writing bright. Last
week , W. J. Wilson of Denver , Colo. ,
former owner of th'o ranch , foreclosed a
mortgage of $114,000 against "The New
United States Cattle Ranch Co. , " who
purchased the ranch and cattle from Mr.
Wilson , about one year ago. We know
none of the circumstances connected
with the affair , which have brought the
proceedings to their present status , but
to a man on the fence it is very appar
ent that "Billie" Wilson has the best of
the situation , having possession ot the
cattle and the money already received
from the English company over$100-
000. All the old employes of the Circle
Ranch have been paid up and discharg
ed. Ed. Wilson , who has been general
manager , being succeeded by Rainy
Bishop of Denver. It is understood that
Mr. Wilson , who is holding all the cat
tle his outfits are gathering during the
present round-up , will make a complete
round-up , this fall , and ship all his stock
to Arizona. The case promises to be a
complicated one , unless the parties in
terested effect a compromise.

The lecture delivered by Mrs. Lock-
wood in the Opera Hall , Tuesday even
ing , on the "Social and Political Life of
Washington , " was a most interesting
one , and held the wrapt attention of the
audience throughout its entire delivery.
The 'scope of Mrs. Lockwood's lecture
was extensive , .necessitating but a refer
ence" to the more important features of
the subject , which was well divided and
admirably handled. The lecture was
not delivered with as much grace and
oratorical effect as might have been ex
pected from one so celebrated in the
forum , yet the subject matter was ab
sorbing , and the lecture was delivered
in an impressive , conversational style ,
couched in simple language , and was the
most enjoyable literary feast our citi
zens have ever had the pleasure of in
dulging in.

THE TRIBUNE pleads guilty of having
made an error of say about $693 in the
statement contained in last week's issue ,
concerning the amount subscribed for
the Fourth of July celebration. The in
advertency through which the mistake
was made is obvious , but when a con
temporaneous publication criticises that
error in this wise , "We desire to correct
an impression that HAS GET ABROAD , "
we ask for mercy , our punishment is
greater than we can bear. Knowing that
man is very liable to err , we would for
give all , did not that same paper , ( and
we but cast a glance over it ) contain two
score of errors on its first page typo
graphical , grammatical , in punctuation ,
in fact and in statement ; but we desist ,
the dissection becomes painful.

They had quite a breeze of excitement ,
Wednesday night , over the capture of
the squinty-eyed boot black , who has
been ornamenting , our streets for the
past few weeks. Arthur S. Winger , one
of D. P. Rogers' men , charged the boot
black with robbing him of a revolver
and watch and chain , and Deputy "Welch
and a number of Mr. Rogers' men start
ed on a hunt for Mr. b. b. After an ex
citing chase over town , the b. b. was
finally caged at the 13. & M. telegraph
office , where he had taken refuge. He
was lodged in the cooler , and discharged ,
this morning , no evidence sufficient to
detain him being produced. The horse
men threatened to hang him , and the
poor fellow has had an attack of palpi
tation of the heart ever since.
Look favorably upon the cherry when
it is red upon the tree. It is a juicy ,
grateful fruit and withal as good for the
stomach as it is pleasing to the eye. But
don't cook it. It would be just as sen
sible to cook watermelons as cherries.
In fact , fruit was intended to bo eaten
raw and not transformed into the horri
ble , indigestible pie. It may be prop
erly converted suitable kinds into
jam and be kept to spread on bread for
the children without violating the can
ons of good sense and taste. Topics.
