The delegates to the Hastings conven
tion , such as have wended their weary
way homeward , ditl not appear to be
very enthusiastic over the gathering or
its results. A delegate at the depot yes
terday , witli his eyes nearly shut from lo s
of sleep , pronounced it n tame aflalr or n
failure he hardly knew which. Another
delegate from the county of Gage was
emphatically of the opinion that it was
nn Omaha gathering and that J. Sterling
Morton would never have recognized in
it the party that has heretofore rallied to
the support of his men and measures.
When thu Lancaster delegates that sur
vived the night and returned In the morn
ing reached the city , they hail nothing to
point to as going to show that the county
was represented In the convention at all ,
and Mr. Sawyer and Postmaster Watkius
were only common every day clay in the
sight of tlio Omaha power that swayed
tliu convention in ch.innols to tlieir own
liking. "Tho trouble is , " said a delegate
from an adjoining county , "thnt the re
publicans , In changing their tactics anil
putting nn a man like General Thayer
instead of a man of straw as heretofore ,
have taken a good deal'of the wind out
of our sails , anil to light Thayer with
North or any other man is a nopule&s
light from its inception. "
INDIANS IN THE SOUTHWEST.
A gentleman from Sheridan county
who was in Lincoln yesterday gave an
interesting account of the progress and
prosperity of the northwestern part of
the state , which is filling up at a great
rate. The relater lives not far from the
Pine Ridge agency , and ho calls attention
to some matters that are worth a
littto consideration. According to the
rules of the agent of the reservation
a white man dare not hunt or travel over
that sacred ground with a gun or dis
charge lire-aims , and yet ho states that
over-100 Indians put in a month a short
time ago , roaming over the sand hills
around the headwaters of the Dismal
river , a hundred miles from the reserva
tion , armed with Winchester rifles ami
slaughtering game by the wholesale ,
principally for the hides that they tooK
back to the reservation with winch to
trade and trallic. "More game was
killed in this raid of tlio red skins down
on tlio territory of the settlers than tlio
settlers would kill themselves in live
rears , " remarked the gentleman from
Sheridan , "and beside frightening women
nnd children on scattered homesteads ,
the Indians did a lively business in the kill
ing of cattle on the ranges for their hides ,
carrying this business to such an extent
that it is stated Mr Paxton , one of the
losers , lias put in a claim against the gov
ernment lor MO head. " From inter
views of this kind with residents of the
north boundary counties it would look
as though a rather loose state of affairs
is alloat up in tlio Pine Hidgo country
since the removal of Agent McGillicuddy.
A FIQIIT oviu : FEis.
To-day in county court the case of Ran
dall vs. Crooker for assault and battery
was up before Jmlgo Parker and by
virtim of nn affidavit was continued over
until ono week from to-day. The trouble
uroso over a collection. Crooker being a
sort of a lawyer , ami KuHlilj ; ; , it 13 un
derstood , had lodged ft claim with
him. Yesterday the two were in
Crocker's otlico , and what passed there
DO one seems to know except that there
was a dispute over $20 and tbe door was
locked , and some kind of an assault was
committed. Both parties are verging on
the venerable ago and ought to have
known better , but it is only a short time
ago that Crookor had an altercation of a
similar nature , and ho seems to bo in
clined toward pugilism , judging from
the two cases.

Denver News Xowa l\M bcnn re
ceived in Denver of the pr.-spnca of the
noted Texas female bandit in Colorado ,
bhc anil IKT male
companions , with a
complete camji outfit , are camped within
four miles of Monte VMa , near Del
rsorte. in the southern part of the state ,
olio and her gang m dii their appearance
there about two > \ci'ks ago , and so far
have resisted all attempt * at interview ,
and many pflbrts have IHM n made
to ascertain their business In
that locality. The citizen * were
naturally curou : about tiioir presence ,
and when all advances wt-ro repelled by
the woman and her companion , the
citizens came to the conclusion that they
weio there for no good , probablv rob
bery. Not wanting them in thoir'midst ,
and not knowing r\actlv how to got rid
of them , a meeting was held nml a man
commissioned to come to Denver to con
sult General 1) . J. Cook. The gentleman
arrived in Denver yesterdav and hold a
long consultation with the."general , but
what plan , if any , was agreed upon to
rid tlio neighborhood of the suspicious
characters is not known.
Through the courtesy of Ooneral Cook ,
a News reporter had an interview with
theaentleman from Monte Vista.
"Everybody in our neighborhood , " ho
said , "don't take much slock in the
woman , believing her lo bo a man or boy
who lias uMiimed the
female garb for a
purpose anil that mirposc is robbery.
Mio ( I'll call her a she ) and her compan
ions wont into camp , I think , to-night
two weeks ago. Monday niornitm two
hunters struck the camp and were going
forward to it , when they were stopped by
a girlish voice commanding them to halt
W lion they recovered from their surprise
they noticed a slim , irirlibh liguro calmly
seated on a thoroughhrcd hoiao , a lovol-
ver in each hand , seemingly awaiting
their approach.
"They hallooed that they wore friends
ami meant no incivility in attempting to
approach the camp.
"She made no reply , but waved them
oft'with his pistol. No sooner had they
turned their backs on the inhospitable
newcomer than she put her horse into a
gallop and circled around them , riding
with such skill and grace as to elicit the
admiration ol the hunters. When they
came to Montp Vista and told their story
it was discredited , but since then every
one in the plaeo 1m had a glimpse of her
and several of her male companions , and
two or three have had a few moments'
conversation with her. 1 am ono of the
favored few in the latter respect. "
"What Is she like * "
" 1 should judge her or him to bo about
eighteen or nineteen years old , long
black hair that is allowed to tloat down
her back , black eyes , a thin , brown attractive -
tractive face , white teeth , and rather thiu
lips. She is not over live feet six inches
in height , has a slim but.well-rounded
ligure , and her whole make-up reminded
mo of a wildcat. She had on when I saw
her a tight-fitting gray dross , short
enough to disclose her buckskin moccasins
sins and legiins. Around her waist was
a white leather bolt supporting two scab
bards , in which were two largo ivory-
'Handled revolvers. On her head she
ivoro a white sombrero or cowboy hat ,
ono side of which was pinned up with a
silver bridle bit. She was mounted on a
horouglibred gray stallion , and was ono
of the prettiest pictures 1 have seen for a
; oed while.
" 1 asked her who she was , and she re-
jiliod in a not unmusical voice , but with
a decided southern accent , that she was
.he 'Texas Queen. ' 1 further asked her
ivhat her business was , and she replied
.hat it consisted in attending to her own
business , i then asked her why she
would allow no ono to enter her camp ,
and she replied she would allow no ono
: o interview her , and if she allowed one
erson to oomo into her camp everybody
elSe would want _ to do tlio same thing.amt
she wasn't going to nljow anyone to mod-
die with her surroundings.
While talking to her ! had gradually
approached ; but she look in my every
movement , and when-I was within about
ten feei of her she wheeled her horse and
was off like an arrow. She circled
around mo for several minutes , gradually
narrowing the circle until she was in
about twenty feet , probably of where I
stood , and suddenly reined her hpr.su back
on its haunches. Placing the bridle reins
in her teeth she drew her revolvers , and ,
motioning with her loft hand to two
small trees which stood on either side ,
and about the same distance from tbo
trail , probably about lifty yards ahead ,
she urged her horse to full speed , and
when what seemed to me directly be
tween the trees she fired both revolvers ,
mil , without turning to look uround , rode
in the direction of the camp.
"I was curious to see the result of her
marksmanship , and on going to the trees
found a bullet in each ono about the same
distance from the ground. She has also
displayed her wonderful marksmanship
to several others in our place , nnd ail of
them assert that they have never seen
anyone oven in this land of good shots so
remarkably skillful with tlio pistol. "
"lias any ono else found out any more
about her than you have ? "
"I think not. She has been seen several
times mounted on a superb bay horsis
which is as well trained as her gray and
probably as licet. To toll you the truth ,
wo don't know what to make of lior. She
won't allow anyone to get near enough to
capture her , and as she nasn't done any
thing to warrant us In iisinc force to ar
rest her , wo don't know what do.
There is ono thing sure , however , wo
don't want her in our neighborhood , and
for that reason I came to Denver to con
sult witii Genoial Cook. Wo are not
scared , but wo nro naturally curious and
want the mystery explained. No ono
among us who has seen the "Queen" but
Uelioyes Itla n man masmioradiug hi fe
male attire.r
"Did you over hear of the female out
law of Texas , wlio was chased Into Ar
kansas and then into tlio Indian terri
tory , where she was nt last accounts ! "
'rXo , 1 never heard of her. "
The gentleman was shown a slip from
n St. Louis paper giving a description of
tlio beautiful outlaw nnd an interview
with her , in which she said that she IKK
never been interviewed , and declarer
her intention of killing the lirst reporter
who attempted to interview hor.
That settles it , " ho said. "That is
the identical girl. I was under the im
presion that the 'quten" was a man , bin
the follow who wrote that certainly liar
bettor opportunities to know who nnd
what she la hotter than I have nail , or
anybody in our community. Ilo do
scribedlior characteristics exactly , and
especially her aversion to being Inter
viewed. What ho says about her fanoj
shooting is true , as I and others can
swear to. "
"Will General Cook go to Monte
Vista ! "
" 1 suppose ho will. Ho says If wo wanl
him to go and arrust her nud hut * unm
panions ho'll do it , I will have to con
suit with ttio boys when I got back , am
if wo agree to have the party run in wo'l
telegraph the general und iio'll come , '
Strange to say , General Cook hat
never Heard of the Texas female outlaw
After reading her description tind char
ucteristics hols inclined to the belief tha
the strange character camped near Monte
Vuta is one and the aamoporiion. When
asked if ho wru not coing to attouip
her arrest , ho said ho hadn't heard any
thing about it , but if he attempted to in
tcrviow her ho would do so. Ho says ho
Is satisfied .that aho and her male com
panions are horse thieves , and the socme
they are run out of the country the bctto
of tha country will bo. Whether she is a
horse thief or not , ho thinks Colorndc
can get along very well without any o
her class.

BILL COLLECTING.
The T\'nys of the Small lawyers null
the llemilar Agencies
An important trade in San 1-rancisco ,
ike in all other large cities , is that of
collectinc bill * . ay 3 the San I'raueisco
hroniclo. Tlio number of proplo who
lave brought ' 'llvi.iir on nothing a year"
down to a science , tlio class of men that
go into enterprises on credit , with an
easy eonerioncc and no money , and the
clas < that have n constitution aver e to
paying bill * whether they have the money
or not , furnish collectors and collection
agencies with a constant and lucrative
employment , llow thee ela es of peo-
) lcget credit is ono of tlio my terics of
uisiness probably duo to the keenness
of competition among tradesmen.
'NN ith a view to learning something
about the in.sido methods of the pro-
: e3 ioii , reporter suggested to a collector
.hat ho must have some queer experi
ence * occasionally.
"Queer' Well , rather , " answereil tlio
jolltctor. "Our business is with 'lodgers
n Queer street , ' and we see some rum
hlngs. If you want to get variety of
ifi > on its shadv confines , and a sprink-
intr of it in all tints , you ought to go
r.to the collection business. ' '
As the collector hero sighed thought
fully , and seemed inclined to close the
conversation the reporter ventured to
uako some inquiry auotit the city col-
ectors.
"There nro a peed many collectors iu
San I'rancNco , was the reply , "but
: hey may all bo described m two clitascs.
Tlio first class includes the small lawyers
young fellows just celling a start , as a
rule , though you tind some old hands
among them. They work singly. The
others belong usually to one of the regu
lar collection agencies , and work to
gether on some sort of a system hunt
n parties , as it wore , and beat out their
game like a hand of sportsmen. "
The collector se-ited himself for a long
conversation by tilting Ills chair back ,
lesting liis feet on the table , and lighting
a cigar.
"N'ow , " he continued , "tho younu la\y-
yer has several ways of going about his
business. Supposing him to have a case
a bill the next thing to do is to find his
inan. If he is impecunious ho goes out
in person with the bill and hunts the fel
low up. If ho has had a fee within a
week or two and lias the price of half a
dozen incals in his pocket he usually
writes. ith an ordinary bill ho must
write four letters. The lirst will say'
'Dear Sir : A bill against you has been
placed in my hands for collection. You
will oblige , etc. , by calling at my ottice
and settling the same. ' There is no an
swer to this. The second letter is still
polite , but firm. The third lottcr is
worded somewhat in this way'Dear
Sir : If the inclosed is not paid wo shall
begin suit at once. ' The fourth and last
is a summons to answer in a suit. In
nine cases out of ten this is effectual. If
a man has any standing at all he won't
go through the justice's court for a little
bill , so they come up anil settle.
'But these are simple cases. The tough
ones are usually turned over to the col
lection agencies. Tlio collection agencies
will take anything , and if the biil is col
lectible they can usually get the money.
When bills come in they arc 'districted'
according to the part of the city in which
they belong. They arc then turned over
to tlio regular collector for that district ,
who present them in the Usual smooth ,
oily form. After a bill has been out once
it is reassigned , according to the recep
tion which it received. If the debtor
manifested u disposition to pay , it is
placed in the luinds of an otuiunry col
lector. The hard cases , though , arc turned
over to the collector technically known
as the bulldozer.
"The buljdo/er is a big man , and
usually carries a club for company. He
goes to tlio hard case , swells liimsulf up
to look as big as possible , tramps up and
down the room with his club for a cauo ,
and announces that he has come to see
that bill paid. Ho doesn't make nny
threats ; that is against the law. But he
lias a very suggestive way of twirling his
club and making the most of his big
voice , and if the hard case js a small man
ho usually succumbs at the lirst encounter.
If ho is a big man the argument gets
pretty warm , and they dare nach other to
come out into the street and light. But as
the bulldozer has orders not to fight un
less necessary , and there are not many
that want to try to throw him out , there
is usually a compromise.
"What struck mo as remarkable as
anything , when I lirst wont into tiio busi
ness , " resumed the collector , reflectively ,
after a pause , "was the number of men
who would acknowledge a bill but de
cline to pay it for some frivolous reason.
There are lots of men who go into an en
terprise with the cheerful intention of
allow ing some ono else to foot the bills in
case of failure. I had n case where a
machinist did some work for an inven
tor. 1 presented the bill last week. 'The
bill is all rieht , ' he confessed , 'but the
machine is no good. Do you think I am
paying bills of that kind ? As ho has a
little property I think ho will pay in a
few days. Sometimes a man ot this kind
denies that the bill is rightfully his. Ho
made the purchase , or had the work done
on somebody else's advice , and wo must
get the uionoy out of them.
"One of the characters of the profes
sion is the cheerful debtor. He is a bland
smiling person that sheus threats as a
duck does water. Ho has no property
ami no income. Ho is as unconcerned as
tlio summer breeze , and admits the bill
with as much concern as though it were
his mother-in-law's. Ho invariably winds
up with 'Oh , go ahead , nnd sue if you
think you can tret it that way. 1 haven't
the slightest objection.1
"Tlio sarcastic kind is
usually a wo
man. 1 had ono yesterday that follows
the cheerful business of laying out the
dead. By the way she went for mo I
didn't know but what she was going to
follow her profession right there , and In
tended to see to it that I furnisliqd the
corpse. 'And is that the kind of a bill yo
man that calla himself a doctor and gives
a girl in spasms medicine to bo taken
once in four hours ! ' I remonstrated that
she had culled the doctor and ouirlit to
pay him , 'Doctors Is no good , ' she said
scornfully , 'I throwed his medicine out
tlio window , and-I'd like to servo him the
samo. Oh , ' she continued , becoming
very sarcastic , 'you can sue if you want
to ; but you knows what them catches as
. ' And she talked
BUCS beggars. indig
nantly out.
"Tho blustering man Is another nlco
character. Ho comes thundering around
with a big noise ami a led fnco.nnd wants
to know why In the name of the seven
devils ho is disgraced by having a bill
Bent to him through the agency , 'Tho
Idea , ' ho blusters , 'of anybody supposing
I wouldn't pay the bill. ' But ho never
does. Ho goes out with the parting shot
that he would have paid it , but now he
will wait till ho gets ready. There Is only
ono wny ti > renon thnt Jiinrt of man , We
go right to his employer , he is usually
getting a good salary , and wo force a
collection. No quarter is shown in such
cases , "
"What do you tind the hardest class to
deal with In the city , " asked the re
porter.
"Woll , about the toughest cases wo get
arc the bills against lawyers some of the
big down-town fellows that YOU would
Mover suspect , too. If the cllunU only
know it. tiioy could pay some big fens
pretty cheap by buying up the bills that
are floating around. The be.'t class to
collect from is the medium poor , who
have a small regular income. Wo meet
pitiful cases of broken-down rospecta-
Lilly , trying to keep up appearances.
The excuses they make and thn pains
they take to hide their povcrtyjaro really
touching. Wo are never hard on such
people , though our business isn't one that
ban inuoh heart in it. "

often important to trace a debtor who has
left the citv , or to run down and find the
property of one who lives here. The
poMoflicc is a very Rood clew for the for

a dozen removals by its help. For the
latter the county clerks arc invaluable.
Then , the best collection agencies usually
have an agent sub rosa , of course in

in tracking members of the demi-monde

skipped with the proceeds. Sometimes
wo mid that the lilting up has been with
the backing of some eminent capitalist ,

a happy one. The business is not what

know just which to Use at the right moi i

Rules for Horse Car 1'assciiRcrs.
Boston Transcript : Some one ought to
write a short treatise on horse car be
havior. A few simple rules would bene
fit the public who ride in these demo
cratic institutions , and perhaps not a few
individuals would , thus acquire an ink
ling of their relatipns to the grand pub
lic which they would never know from
the influences and teachings of the home
circle. These rules should bo the converse -
verso of the following :
Fir.'t In an open horse car , allow
everybody to stumble over you in fretting
a scat , as a reminder of the obstacles they
will meet in life. Don't move an inch for
the worltl. Thereby you demonstrate
your immobility , and that you possess
admirable firmness , and may be relied
upon in an emergency to stick.
Second When a woman enters any
car , never bo lirst in proffering her a scat.
Wait and see if anybody else does so.
Look along down the male line of pas
sengers , and by your expression convey
au Idea of amazement that others should
allow her to stand up. If she should bo
a working woman , concentrate your
whole brain on the newspaper before
you. Such power of isolation in a crowd
ed horse car denotes rare qualities , and
indicates the possession of unusual indi
viduality.
Third In leaving a horse car wait until
the conductor _ is aoout to start up. By so
doing you will be taught a lesson in dy
namics that may prove of immense prac
tical advantage to you in the future.
This rule will chielly apply to women ;
but one exclusively for them would read :
When a womim gets into a car and
makes for a scat , take a rapid nnd com
plete inventory of her entire costume ,

The Younfj Clergyman's First Wed
ding Foe.
Chicago Intor-Occan : It was thnlr first
wedding. The groom was "now.1 so
was tliil bride , and the Congregational
clergyman had committed matrimony
only in his imagination. Finally , how
ever , it was all over : the twain was one
flesh , and the little wife was weeping in
the arms of the mother. The groom
slipped up to the nervous minister , nnd
as that gentleman was about to pass out
into the night , pressed a coin into his
hand.
"A $20 gold plqco , " thought the young
preacher. His Jicrt beat faster now
than when he was oflieiating at the wed-
ding. Ho needed tire money so much.
Indued ho often wlsl/cd / his meagre salary
was one-half its sizeho had such diflf-
eulty in collecting it. Ami now
to receive ? 20" " all at onco.
Why , it . Tluii it occurred
to him that it 'was customary for the
minister to make" the bride a present of
his lirst marriage fee , The good man
fiighedasho removed his thin overcoat ,
nnd returned to the room where the
guests wore offering1 their congratula
tions to the newly wedded couple.
"I forgot something , " said ho , as ho
approached tljg bride , "Thb ; ? U 9 jifrt
lunrf'ueo foe 1 have . < svor received. It is
yours. It shouldbo kept as u reminder
of tills occasion. "
The young briilo stretched out her
hand and the coin rang as it touched her
marriage ring. Tim guests looked up ;
the unconscious wife did not close her
hand upon the fifty cent piece that lay
there , and all saw it. The minister was
glad it was his iirst marriage ; the
guests tried to appear as if they did not
see the half dollar , nnd the reporter
quietly smiled , and thought perhaps the
young husband was saving up to buy the
divorce.
Acute rheumatism is an inllammation
of the joints , marked by pain , heat and
redness. With these symptoms apply

Nothing tries the patience nl a man
more than to listen to a hacking cough ,
which he knows could easily bo cured

Philadelphia TimciVhat : becomes
of the ballet girls1 The old ballot mas
ter repeated tiie question to himself mu
singly. "Well , " lie at length answered ,
"tho ballet girl is not so very unlike other
girls \Uio must work for a hviug , as most
people imagine. She has more tempta
tions , is usually of a lively nature and
not averse to a lark , but she generally
ends by marrying. As a rule , she marries
somn 6"ne connected with the theater or
some one in her own class of life whom
she meets at her home. Obviously the
ballet girl's parents are almost always
poor people. It is not often that girls
of well-to-do parents run away to join the
ballet , and when they do they are in
nearly every ease soon captured and
tt'.Ken homo. When a ballet-girl marries
a mechanic , or a saloonkeeper , or a stage
hand , it is the exception when she does
not make a good and domestic wife.
Some ballot girls have made aristocratic
marriages , but most of these girls were
premieres. They hayo usually gotten
along well with their husbands , and it
has happened that a fast youth has re
formed after taking a balleriana for his
wife. When a ballot girl marries an
actor that is as it may turn out. just as if
the actor married any other girl. There
are ballet girls who go to the bad , of
course , but the experience of the ballet
girl makes her shrewd , and she is not
easily humbugged.1
