The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1878-07-31


Washington, July 3O.-The follow
ing declaration between the United
States and Great Britain, for recipro-
cal protection Of trade marks in the
two countries, has been proclaimed by
the President, namely: The Govern
ment of the United States and the gov
ernment Of the. United Kingdom Of
Great Britain and Ireland, with view
to reciprocal protection of marks of
manufacture and trade in the two
countries, have agreed as follows:
The subjects, or citizens of each Of the
contracting parties, shall have In the
dominions and possessions of the other,
the same rights as belong to native sub
jects or citizens, Or as are now granted
or as may hereafter be granted to sub
jects and citizens of the most favored
nation, in everything relating to prop
erty in trade marks and trade labels.
Those Imprisoned Revenue OHicials.
Washington, July l.-Fears have
been expressed in some quarters here
that the lives Of the imprisoned revenue
officials are not safe in Jail at Green
vile, 8. C., and that they may be taken
out by reckless gang of men who defy
federal authorities, and be either shot
or hanged. While there was some
foundation for these fears few days
ago, Commissioners Ranm does not now
share in these apprehensions, but thinks
that public opinion will afford ample
protection to the three imprisoned Off
GERS. The district attorney, Northrop,
! writes to Commissioner Ranm at length
regarding this case, taking high ground
that the sovereignty Of federal govern
ment must be maintained, and the
right to control these cases observed.
It has been charged that Northrop.
whose appointment was understood 70
have been made upon the recommends.

Field Day in the House of Commons.
London, July 30.-The debate OPEN
ed in the House by Mr.. Gladstone
reading the letter that he had ad-
dressed to Lord Beaconsfield. He
declared he had never attacked the gov
ernment without sense of RESPONSE
bility. He claimed that if the partition
Of Turkey was not as complete as the
partition Of Poland, it was as great. In
stead of elevating races the government
assisted in depressing them. The re-
sponsibiliti-s of the country on account
of the Asiatic protectorate were too
great and unstatesmanlike.
Lord Beaconsfield and others replied.
Their arguments have already been pub
lished. -
The debate was adjourned until next
Thursday.

A clergyman was annoyed by pco-
pie talking and giggling. He paus,
cd, looked at tho disturbcrs and said:
al am always afraid to reprove those
who misbehave for this reason. Some
years hence, as was preaching, a
young man who sat before mo was
constantly laughing, talking and
making grimaces. paused, andad-
ministored q severe rebuko. After
the close of tho service, a gentleman
said to me; "sir, you have made a
great mistakej that young man was
an idiot" Since then have always
been afraid to reprove those who
misbehave themsclve in church, lest
l should repent that mistake, and
reprovo another idiot" During The
rest of the service there was good
order.

How The Farm Was Bought.


A young man was very anxious to
secure a piece of property which was
just then for sale, on very advantage
GUS terms. He went to confer with
u friend of of his, who was II banker,
about the matter, and TO inquire
whether it would be prudent to bor-
row the requisite sum, and pay it in
installments. He thought he should
be able to manage all but the first
payment.
He was advised to borrow from the
bank a sum enough larger than he
wished to raise to cover the first pay
ment, lay it strictly aside, and then
go ahead.
"But," said his friend you must
spend literally nothing. You must
live off of your place. You must
make a box, and drop into it all the
money you receive"
The young man and his wife went
bravely to work to follow this advice.
The egg money and the butter mon
ey, and corn and wheat money-all
went into the payment box, and at
specified time the place was theirs.
On the day for the last payment,
the young man presented himselfbe-
fore his friend with smiling face,
and with the money in hand. There
were no rags to be seen,but his cloth
ing was well covered with darns from
head to foot.
"You see, l have followed your ad.
vice." he said, land now l know how
to earn another"

Testing a Wire's Temper.

The late Chief Justice Chase's
mother pnce bore her part in a lit
tlecomeey which was almost shaks-
perean, With her husband she was
yisiting;fw9 of his brothers, who
were also mhried. The three gen.
tlemen, sittiagand talking together,
made some playful wagers on the
subject Of theiR@iyes' tempers, and
agreed to test them: So, walking
into the room where tile three ladies
were seated at the freside making
caps, which at that time were very
fashionable, the trial began. The
first brother after soma sighting re-
marks concerning caps in general
and his wife's handiwork in particu-
lar, commanded her to "throw it in
the fire." Naturally the indignant
lady paid small attention to the or
der The next brothers attempt
met with the same result; but no
sooner did the Chief Justices father
command his wife to toss her cap in
to the FIRE than the cap went into the
flames, and that in the most prompt,
sweet and serene manner. 1t may,
perhaps, be unnecessary to add that
ofthe three husbands he was the
ono most thoroughly well managed.
