The picked nine of the Cheyenne
Base Ball Club, who went up to Lar
annie City on the Fourth to play the
Laramie Base Ball Club, were defeated
by the latter by a score of 90 to %.
The Cheyenne boys were Howard,
Sawyer, Fisher, Parshall Bent, Smell,
Ruthven, Slaughter. A return game
will be played in this city on Saturday
the 18th inst, between the two clubs.
The Cheyenne boys speak in glowing
terms of the courteous and hospitable
treatment which they received at the
hands of the Laramie people, during
their stay in that city, aud take a de-
gree of satisfaction in acknowledging
their defeat at the hands of so generous
victors. They accord much praise to
the skill displayed by the members of
the Laramie club.

a party who has just returned from

account of the prospects in that region.
He states that there are at least 1900
men now in the hills and all are doing
well. The gold yields from three to
eleven cents to the pan.
The want of provisions Is a
great drawback, aud any one
taking such articles as -four, ba-

alize a handsome profit. No Indians
have been seen, and the miners all feel
as safe us if they were in Chey-

Strength of Character.

A writer says Most people keep too
strong hold of their personality to be
able to forget themselves in their subject;
they carry an unacknowledged selt-coh-
sciousness along with them. IL 10 ps
single-minded is to have an undivided
interest in things, they are not single
minded. Beauties are aware that they
are handsome; clever people are in the
way of showing themselves to advantage,
however little their subject lends itself
to these considerations. The natural
character is not by any means blind to
its good points nor ashamed to own them;
it is not bashful, but the thing under
discussion is bona fde the subject OF
thought; it has no feigned interests, not
mnisteripg to selflovc by indirect means
Naturalness is the gift of unconscious
ness of doing things without thinking or
knowing how to do them, and perhaps we
should add, doing them well. Under the
charm of such spirit we ieei sense Oh
liberty and expanslon;, we breathe
purer air. One natural person makes
many and inspires confidence in human
nature. And how straightforward in
tercourse becomes under these conditions!
Thus thinking, thus influencing, Miranda
could saw, "fil be your wife if you will

Testing the Mind-Rcadcrs.

Brown the mind-reader, whom east.
ern regions have almost forgotten, has
had campaign out west, and the other
day, or rather evening, had competitive
contest with Mrs. Bleik Peters in Davcn-
port, Ia, in her own parlors, The lady
with the peculiar prrnomen-supp0Sa-
bly, her husbands-is of middle age, and,
says a western reporter, "the daughter of
a high official in the court circle of Da-
vcnport,' which must be a fine thing.
Still, it is not 50 fine as her speciality,
"the vision and the faculty divine" she
has, and which she displayed on the oc-
casion to which we refer Browns
method, it is well known, is to place the
hand of the mind he means to read on
his forehead and 90 like streak o
lightning to any hidden article, Mrs
Peters needs to have the ends of the fin
gers placed on the region Of the lunal
plexus, Immediately between the eyes, il
order to do the same thing. The sepa
rate experiments, which were successful
in each case, were not so interesting aS
the Joint test. Both the lady and the
young man left the room, while piece
of hagroot was put under champaign
glass, reversed on a plate, and covered
with a napkin. 1t was resolved that
Brown should remove the napkin, Mrs.
Peters lift the glass, Brown take the
hagroOt, and Mrs Peters the plate. Re
called to the room, the two joined hands,
the operator took ahand of Brown, placed
hisfngers on the brow of Mrs. Peters, and
simultaneously, without a moments hes
itation; the two advanced and carried out
the programme to the letter. After this
they were placed one at each end Of the
long drawing-room, an alphabet hanging
on wire before each. A person in the
middle of the room opened Bible at
random, fixed his thought on a name,
meanwhile holding copper wire connec-
ting with Brown and extending his other
hand towards Mrs Peters. Immediately,
as if moved by machinery, the two mind
readers began to spell the word on theiral-
phabets, striking each letter at the same
moment. These tests, we are told, were
continued for some time without fail
ure, being certainly remarkable illns-
tration. of this power, which is not, how
ever, as was proved here in many private
circles last winter, very rare one.
