Show A NICE YOUNG MAN. DashielL The Yellowstone L:'on. Of a smooth-facid. rhuhhy-ilxckcd youth who aired himself a season in Salt Lake, and departed hence to1 "do" the California State Fair, the Helena Herald has these kind words : A nice young man, I'ashiell. tin hanger on of the Yellowstone Expedition, Expe-dition, who reprfsent'-d himself as a correspondent of the New York 11 r-ild r-ild and Minneapolis Trihtui'', and who, on the strength of these representations repre-sentations was allowed to accompany the expedition, and received all the courtesies due to the press; and :l we published the other day, repaid those courtesies by deserting the command at Musselshell, and induced two cavalry cav-alry men and an ambulance driver to accompany him: " He arrived at Bo zeman in due time, where he passed himself off as a newspaper correspondent corres-pondent and an intimate personal friend" of Jay -Cooke, for whom he was juat then-engaged in writing up the route of . the Northern Pacific Railroad ; was much pleased with tlut beautiful settlement set-tlement Bozeman through which, he had no doubt aided by the influence influ-ence of his potent pen, and his personal per-sonal influence with Jay Cooke and the officers the road would pass. The bait took Dashicll was feasted and lionized; borrowed all the money he could from the citizens of Bozeman Boze-man and then lit out in the night for Salt Lake, where we last heard from him through the Herald of that city, tia editor of which set him down as a great snobanda consummate ass. The citizens of Bozeman, however, thought him a nice voting man, hut "he's gone from their gaze." Mush and milk parties were evidently too thin for this brilliant correspondent. The various banks of this city have lately received a letter with a cartoon of a young bond-robber, and said picture pic-ture resembles the aforesaid young gentleman. Many thought it must be him, but we do not, because we have no idea he would tike a buiul; he might get oft with a hols-; an ambulance am-bulance and a cavalryman, but nary a bond. He is a youth, and we trust those rough Califoruians will treat him kindly, else the N. Y. Herald won't like it a bit recollect, he is a correspondent! |
