TWO WIDOWS Both Relicts of ‘Governor” Brigge, of Denver, Lay Claim to His Property. Danver Republiean Nearly 60 years ago Tom Briggs and wife went Into the central portion of Iowa and built themsolves & home in the wilderness. Mr. Briggs was energetle, his wife industrious, and they began to prosper. After Mr, Beigge had cloared one farm of forest troes, began to cultivate It and enjoy life, he took & notfon to sell out and go further weot, which he did. He cleared another 160 acres In Iows, sold that, and repoated the same thing a third 1ime, In the meantime he had seven sons and two dsughters born to him, and was at least fortu- nate In ubeying the scriptural injunc- tlon to be fruliful and multiply. CONVERTED TO MORMONISM Mrs, Briggs had bscome converted to Mormonfam by an ftlnerant Mor- mon elder, and she in turn converted ner family to the same bellef, with the exception of her husband, who refused ta countensuco the doctrine, Mr. Briggs's obstinacy caused him and his wife to be continually bickering, and life became unbearable to the old gen- tloman, To add to his misery, his wifo was stricken blind, She then took to lecturing on Mormonism, which so disgusted the old gentleman went to Salt Lake City, Whlle in the vew Jorusalem he became infatuated with a buxom Eoglish widow and mar ried her accordiug to the Mormon rites. As the old man could not be induced to embrace the practlce of polygamy, he fell into distavor with Brigham Young, and also finourred the onmity of the Danites. Finding it useleas to remain 1n Salt Lake, Mr, Briggs and his wife attempted to leave the clty, and were thwarted soveral timel in thelr endeavors, but were at last auccessfal enough to reach ant from the City of the thirty miles, with two good horses and & wagon, but at that polnt the Mormous stole thelr horses. They remained In camp several days, not knowing what to do, and were relieved of the dilemma in which they were placed by the Salt Lake butcher, who was not much of a Mormon after all, giving them a yoke of steors, With the two oxen Mr, and Mra. Briggs made their way to the North Platte, where they met the notorlous Slade, who offered them a station at Ciche le Poudro, and the offer was accepted. They remalned there for about two years, and the Indlans getting trouble- 8ome, they left and came to Denver, settling on the west side. At thattime property was valueless on the west side of Cherry Creek, fow balteved it wouid ever be worth anything, Mr. Briggs purchased sev- eral lots on Larimer and Eleventh stroets, and the the rapld increase in value made him Independent, While enjoying himself as & small capltallst Mr. Briggs was dubbed ‘‘Governor,” and tho title stuck to him until his death. When he dled he was worth Walle lying upon his leath bed, and when rapidly appronch- ing diseolution, he was asked what he a8 golng to do with his property, wmd sald he hadn’t thought much about it, bat supposed he would leave it to his helrs, Mr. Thos, Chandler, who waa a friend of the fally, toid him he had better leave it to his wifo as she was getting old and would neod {t. The “‘Governor” finally conseut ed, and at his request Mr. Chandler wrote his will at his dictation, snd it was signed by the *‘Governor,” in the presence of several witnesses, That night he died, The will was proved and admitted to probate, and Mrs. Briggs enjoyed the fall possession of her rights, Two years ago to day she married a miner named Sam Colyer, with whom she s now llving, Not long eince Mrs. Col- yer was sorved with 8 notice that salt has been entered agalnst ‘‘Governor” Briggs' estate by his wife and heirs, which was the first she knew of her former husband having another wife. She placed her case in the hands of the “‘governor" topplng with her, and the old woman scems to be quite fond of him, While the scribe was In her room last evening a bottle of whitky was produced, some punch brewed, and he partook, the old laoy seomingly enjoying hers more thandid the others thelrs, and after the punch, clgars came, Mrs. Colyor haa tasto [ relgars, If nothing else.

Washington Republican, The Balilmore & Ohlo rallway com pavy will send to the Chleago Rail- way Kxposition, among other articles of thelr exhibit, the first locomotive engine bullt for thelr road which proved succeesful. This locomotive 1a the celobrated ‘‘Arabian,” No. 1, which like all prominent objects tu Baltl- wore, has a family hlno?" It is not, as ls generally supposed, elther the engine bullt by the company or the first engine that pulled a train on acurved road, The first engine was bullt by Peter Cooper. Pang- horn, In his valuable history of the Baltimore & Ohlo road, says: “‘Cooper came to Baltimoro with an odd looking contrivance called » steam engine. The boller was not as large a8 that of & modern kitchen range, It was aboat the same diameter, but not more than half the helght, and had smokestack that looked llke an aggra: vated putty blower. This was the first locomotive for rallway purposes built in Amerioa, and drew the first pas senger car propelled, by steam upon ln¥ railway tn the world."” his locomotive was beaten by a and but; Gen, Browne. Judge Yonley represents the Interests cf the helrs, and thus the matter reats. A vislt was pald Mrs, Colyer last night, and from her the story was learned. She ls an old, withered, raw-boned English woman, about 70 years of age, but hale and hearty, and bids fair to be a century old. She is chatty, and speaks with a strong cockney accent. Bhe sald that she and ‘‘Governor” Briggs were lawfally married, and that she was always a true and loving wife to him; that she worked hard while ltving with him, and accumulated money enough to buy the property in dis- pute. When they first came to Den- ver her services as a nurse were In de- mand, and she made §10 a day, right along, not only made but saved 1t. The ‘‘governor” bought the pro- perty in his own name, but she fur- nished the money, and it belonged to her before her husband wiiled it to her. She sald she knew her husband had been marrled, but did not know he had a living wife. The chlldren were all Mormons, and Ruseell Briggs, the youungest, they had «ducated as a lawyer. It was he who Instigated the sult and Induced his mother, slsters and two brothers to join him in trylng to oust her from her owa, Since the “‘Governor's” death she had learned a great deal about his first wife. She wasa Mormon preacher, and was engaged by the Mormon church to preach thelr faith, Bhe was bliad and had to bo led around, bat was a sharp and lutelligent wo- wan, Four of the boys are dead. The two girls are married, as are the three remaining boys, and all have grown childron. Mrs. Colyer says she prefers to fight for her rights, and 1t 1s hardly probable that she will ba ousted from her possession, Her presout husband, Mr, Colyer, sold a wice & fow days ago fer §12,000, and saye he doesu’t care what ey do, s he has enongh to take care of himself and wifo until they dio Mua. Colyer s eupposed to be very wealthy, She derives s large Income from hor rents, and besides s a money lender, or usurer. She has thousands of dollars worth of notes, and it is reported she Fas money stored in every crack and orevice of her rooms, which are rcantily, even shabblly, furnished. But as she is a woman with primitive tastes, she ls probable better satisfied with her apartments than many others are who have luxurious rooms and no money to gratify thelr tastes. A grandson of horse In & falr race, and caused the first rallway accldent that ever ocour- red. In trylng to adjust some gearing that had slipped, Mr. Cooper lacerated his hand, The locomotive was unsat- isfactory, and premlums were ofiered for others, Mr. Phineas Davls, master of machinery of the road, had one bullt at York, Pa., which welghed two and one-half tons, and was found too light, The two others were bullt by Roeder, at Hughes' quay on the south slde of the harbor, but didn’t amount to anything. Then Mr. Davis design. ed the Arabian, The engine was bullt at the company's shops, under the supervieion of ita designer. It went {nto service June, 1834 It has been carefully taken care of and repaired, and with very little difference, s pre- clsely the same englne that it was forty-nine years ago. It Is clalmed to be the oldest effective locomotive englne in the Ualted States and per- heps In the world. It is a geared engine, having a vertlcal cylinder with walking-beam. It has four driving wheels, each 36 inchea in diameter, or nearly one-half the size of the drivors used on modern passengoer locomo- tives. The welght of tha Arablan is 13 tons, about one-third that of the modern locomotive. Its tractive power is 6,000 pounds. It used to have fans connected with the exhauat, but those became broken, and no attempt has been made to restore them. With this exceptfon it s tho same ongine as when first made. It is In active service at the Mount Clare yards, and works as woll now as when first put on the road, It was for many yoears a pas- songer engine, drawlug trairs on both the Washington branch and the main | stem. So far as could be learned 1t had never met with an accldent, never jumped a rall or run off the track, with one exception, That exception was & nitable ono. Baifore It was finlshed Mr., Davls prownised the work- men engaged in the shops, some 300, to take them and their families on the train drawn by the Arablan as far as it wout, then to go to Washington and have dinner at Brown's (now the Metropolitan) hotel. The Washington branch was then opened uearly to Bladensburg, The trlp was made, Wm. Daff belng the englneer, Just west of Jessup's Out, thirteen and a half miles this side of Baltimore, the Arabian ran off the track, Mr, Da was sitting with Mr. Daff when the accldent occurred. The engine rolled on its side. Nelther Duff nor anybody else on the train was hurt, even In the least, but Mr. Davis. Heo waskilled, There seemed to be a speclal fate in the matter. No- body could ever tell why the Arabian ran off the track. There was no evi- dence ever shown, although the full- ost luvestigation was made, that any cause existed to throw It off. As the Bullock press, which, the first time it was put to work,caught its inventor and printed him into Its first impression, %0 the Arablan on ita first trip, killed its designer and maker. An imagina- tive man, gifted with a little supersti- tlon, might think that matter had been {mbued with Intelligence that resented its creation thus fiercely on its creator. The Arablan will be englneered to Chlcago by Mr. Thomas Galloway. The Chicagoans will thus see the old- st effective locomotive englne In the world ran by the oldest railway en- glneer, an incldent In rallway history that deserves a more lastlng record than that of & newspaper articlo, A largs aumber of depositions have re. cently been taken at Davenport in a pat- ent fi:hlngnment case between Adams & Westlake, the oil stove manufacturers and J. 1, Rathbone, of Albroy.
