Among the diffcrent items in the list of the city's expenditures the one for street light- e is not inconsiderable, nee the 15th of last March the gas lights on the strects have cost the neat little sum of $2,682, or &8 per month, The new tower lights wili do away with this item, and substitute in its place a monthly bill of §560, or #,720 a year. The ctric lights cost §20 cach per month, mak- ¢ §50 per month for each of the seven towers. At that price the light is too costly to have any of it wasted, sothe triple-shadow lanterns have been removed and the clear glass globes substituted, As the city pays 1y #20 per night to have the benefit of the towers, it 18 supposed that it will have credit for that amount when the lights are not lighted. If that is the case, the city has made about £50 this week. In further justification of the cost for electric lights it should be borne in mind that the gas lights were all put out between 11 and 120'clock at night, while the clectric Tights are to blaze till daylight, nearly twice as long. - best quality coal and wood, call eason, 26 Pearl stre — t assortment Warm Shoes at —~ loans money on chattel . { every description.

In 1869 Wild Bill was a candidate for the office of sheriff. but was defeated by Peter Lanahan, This disgusted him so much that he left Hays City never to return. Soon after Wild Bill's depart- there was much need of his return, There turned up in Hays City one of the most finished specimens of personitied devilishness that ever cursed a bovder town with his murderous presence, This was Curry, o desperndo so thoroughly e that he seemed abso- lutely not to possess a single redeeming quality. Unl ny “killers,” he did not confine his attentions to other things or persons who had opposed or injured him, but murdered. seemingly. for the pleasure of killing. No one was safe from his attacks. and, during his stay he ercated almost a veign of terror. Detailed accounts of his deeds of blood and outlawry would fill a volume of me“\ size. but the reader would turn from it, sick with horvor. at the recital of his demoniacal depravity. Colored men werve his favorite vie- tims, and he killed several of them for no other reason than that they were black. Accounts differ as to how many negrc were murdered by him. the number being placed all the way from four to eleven. However, it is an established fact that he threw the bodies into a dfy well, where they more than covered the bottom.
