The water in Lake Mah-pe-ah-luta
has subsidized but little during the past
winter; although no water has been let
into the reservoir for seven months, a
prominent engineer tells us the lake
contains to-day water enough to sup
ply this city for II year. Our people
need not let the fear that the water
supply will be insufficient, detain them
in the construction Of the much needed
waterworks. We believe a majority of
the city trustees favor early action in
this matter, and steps should at once
be taken to mature a judicious plan Of
action, which, if consummated, will
give Cheyenne a cheap, but effective
system of waterworks.

1t is reported that our new U. S.
Attorney, Watts, has returned to Mich
igan, having concluded not to take up
his residence in Wyoming. If this is
so, one Of our W citizens should, un-
der the home rule system of the present
administration, be appointed to the Of
fee. We would therefore suggest to
Attorney General Devens, if the vacan-
cy exists, to refer to the files in his de-

he will find there) of some of our lead
ing citizens, for the appointment to
this office of an old citizen of Wyoming,
who is in every way qualified for the

Some people in Washington are uneasy
under rumors that MIR Tlden i to be de-
elarei the lawfully elected President of the
United States. by pint resolution of Con
gress, if the Democrats gain majority in
the Senate
\ Washington special says THE drI-
matte event of the night session of the Sen
ate. was the fiery speech and sudden serious
illness Of Senator Ransom, of North Caro-
lima. His speech was full of plantation
swaggcr and insolencc, such as has not been
heard upon the Senate floor for years: 1t
was particularly abusive Of Senator Hoar.
At the end Ransom fell in what is called
fainting fit. lie has tendency to heart
trouble, and was intensely excited for two
hours. 1t was thought he could not live.
Three prominent physicians were in attend
ance. 1t was not until near daybreak that
he was pronounced out of danger"
The correspondent of the New York Irib-
ine thus describes some of the after-midnisht
scenes in the Senate chamber, Tuesday night ::
Senators were generally in excellent
humor. Mr.. Eimund>'s rough and severe
exterior softened, especially after midnight,
and he was frequently seen on the Demo-
cratic side, joking and laughing with the
severest oi his opponents. Mr.. !loar, usual
ly so reserved and cold, was particularly
amiable; and the icy nature of Senator
Donald Cameron melted and ran into the
stream of general good-nature that flowed
during the morning hour. Mr. Wadleigh
was laughing and telling stories To his Dem
Ocratic associates. Judge Davis, between
maps in the clOak-rOom, rolled about the
Chamber from seat to seat, hubblng over
with genial good cheer. Mr. Thurman slept
frequently in his chair. The colored Senator,
Mr., Bruce, lay for II long time Hat on one of
the sofas in the Chamber, and snoIed like a
fog-horn. When it was necessary for him
to vote, he was shaken into sem-conscIous-
ness by the nimble pages, hut never before
his name was passed ON the roll. After
rubbing his eyes like sleepy school
boy for few moments, he would STUN
BILE to his seat and wait until he could vote.
and then stumble back To his sofa, and 20 on
with his snoring as though nothing had
happened. Mr.. Mitchell. who STAYED in his
scat most of the time. nodded again and
again. Occasionally he started up with
scared look, the pages laughing at him
among themselves. Senator Wallace, always
quick and judicious, was on the aler; all
night long, raising frequent points and
chatting with his colleagues. Mr. kirkwOod
occupied the sofa next To Mr.. Bruce, and
with hands erchicf drawn over his face,
chimed in with the music Of his colored
associate. Mr.. voorhees,. tall and straight,
wandered round like diSenchanted spirit.
Mr.. Biyard, who never loses his dignity,
consumed as much time aS possible by calling

/ they do that there is spirit in them, only this
lively spirit must be put under restraint, and
when this is properly accomplished, snch
children make the best men and women
| Those very good children, with whom parents
and teachers never bave any trouble, do not
amount to much intellectually, and seldom
make their mark in after life. We noticed in
school, that the most troublesome boys, when
well controlled, became the best students in
college, and the men of mark aiterward. We
could name several who are now eminent
men who were very mischiovous boys at
school. while most of the good boys have
disappeared from public view.
Fits of passion are as contagious among
boys as fainting fits are among girls 1t Is
in this the same as with other bad examples.
Hoping that the reader will pardon a refer
ence to personal experience, we will relate
the following
When about eight or nine years old, we
remember very well having seen few times
n boy of our acquaintance, by falling into II
iii Of passion, similar to an attack of epilep-
sy, arouse the sympathy of his parents. who
INDUCED him III what he wished, and IN what
he got into passion for. On Il suitable oc-
casion, we did the same thing threw our
selves back in our chair, screamed and yelled.
etc Our father, who did not understand
such nonsense. at once gave us the soundest
thrashing we ever received, and we never
got into fit of passion again, and have since
been always able to control ourselves, even
when the provocation was strong. We must
confess that we remember this act of our
father with gratitude.
When now we see any one exhibiting his
anger and excitement III ridiculous manner,
We often say silently "lf you had the ben
eft of the thrashing which We got when
little boy, you would have learned not to
make fool of Yourself now"
