SHERIDAN, Wyo., Sept. 7. (Special Tel
egram.) The preliminary- hearing of Edna
Irvine was postponed until September 11 at
it o'clock. She pleaded not guilty before
0uUc ,Thqmas.
While Mr. Irvine relinquished his position
as manager of the Letter ranches some
ttmw ago, arrangement was made to oc
cupy the ranch home until January L Ml
' Irvine had been given permission, it 1
Claimed, by the owner of the ranch, to
pasture her saddle horsea and have ue of
the stable and corrals, but for some rea
son the foreman,' Knighton, and ' Mlsa
Irvine, had disagreed on many previous oc
casions as to the extent of her privilege
snd considerable 111 feeling existed between
tjaem. . It la also claimed by friends of
th Irvine In Cheyenne that during the
raoant , Tlslt of Vice President A. D.
.'"S1 Sratf of the Colorado & Southern ratl
foad, to the Lelter ranch, where ha was
lng entertained by the Irvine, that Fore
. naa Knighton caused the Irvine some em
fjsxraswment by Interposing objections to
fthelr using iregetablea, spring chickens, etc.
Vooid therefore seem 'that the trouble
between th foreman and the Irvine has
Xiaan brewing for soma time, and culmin
Afead Monday when Mia Irvine took the
matter la hef awn .bands. ' -
Two Incidents, which occurred at" the
Kllralg ranch near Cheyenne, illustrate
perfectly the force .' of thla high-strung
Wyoming girl. Th first occurred three
years ago when Mlsa Irvine wa with a
jauty of young ladles. from th east, as
guest at the ranch. During their stay
th conversation drifted around to life cn
the range, the 'breaking of outlaw horse
and the roping of ataer. In thi talk Miss
Irvine, perhapa 'more familiar with the
subject than any' of the others, modestly
refrained f ronv participating. Her friend.
however, expatiated on her ability and
astonished that this petite and seemingly
(rail gll could 'accomplish such feat, one
of her eastern friend exclaimed:
"Why. Edna, I don't' believe you could
rope that calf,", pointing to a large year
ling heifer In a' pasture near the house.
Mlsa Irvine's only response wa to mount
her horse, unswlng her rope, make a dash
for th animal., and with a clever throw
drop the noose over the head of the calf.
Without checking her speed she swerved
her horse sharply to one side, the rope
was drawn taut. with a snap like a whip,
th calf described a complete somersault
In th air and landed In a heap on the
ground with Its neck broken dead.
Th aeoond Incident . occurred at . the
lllrslg ranch two years ago when Miss
Irvine, who was visiting at the ranch, was
assisting in th work of cutting out and
branding cattle. During a wild dash her
bora slipped and fell on its rider. Fear
ing ,sh .was killed or seriously Injured,
other hurried to her assistance. She was
sitting on the ground, .a little pale, but

. Foar Thoasaad Dollar Found.
' Within three hours from the time that
C. A. Davis of Friend lost $4,200 in cash
and drafts at the state fair grounds,
supposedly from the operation of a pick
pocket, all but $50 of that sum was de
livered back to him through the agency
of the exposition management. The en
velop which contained the money was
found on a plate In one of the exhibit
at horticultural hall, where someone had
placed It under an apple to keep it from
blowing away. Fifty dollars In greenback
that the envelope had contained was miss
ing, but the remaining contents were intact.
Th Under o the envelope took it to head
quarters, where Davis had previously re
ported his loss, and It was promptly, re
turned to him. . ,.,., ... .
Chief Cooper Responsible.
Chief Cooper frankly assumed before th
excise board and a committee of ministers
thla morning all responsibility for the fact
that the police have not Interfered with the
sale of liquor in the tenderloin resorts dur
ing fair week. ,'
"I did it of my own motion and for what
I deemed the welfar of the city," said
the chief, "and I do not hesitate to say
that I would do ' it again under similar
circumstances. I am not dependent upon
my place here for my bread and butter,
and I will do what I feel to be beat' for
the city."
It appeared pretty plainly from what the
chief said that he bad given the keepers
of resorts to understand that the police
would not Interfere with their selling beer
during fair week,' so long as they main
tained order otherwise, ' but he had told
them that ' if drunken men were found
coming out of their places they would be
pulled.
Rev. 8. Z. Batten thereupon suggested
that the place at 703 L street ought to be
pulled at once, aa positive evidence was
obtainable that It, had .violated the, law.
Chief Cooper s&.that he would nor pull
the place without a complaint, and it was
agreed that under the circumstances - it
would be. unfair to the keeper of th plaoe,
as she had done Just what the others had
don and under similar circumstances.
