Testing in the Family.

SAID young lady to us the other
day: !: l really long for a sympathiz-
ing, appreciative word in our family.
There are so many of us, that we ought
to be very happy. We are very merry
heartaches too. We have fallen into
such a habit of criticising and making
sport of each other, that if something
is not done soon to stop it l am afraid
it will destroy the harmony of the fam
lily. As for me, they make fun of
everything l do or say, and make re-
marks about my personal appearance
that are very annoying. They do this
because they say l am 50 easily leased.
1 often resolve that 1 will shut my
mouth and say nothing to any one.
Even father and mother are not ex-
empt. Their little peculiarities are
made the subject of jest and remark
l am sure" she continued, YEARLY, 81
don't know where it is all going to
end, for we are all not only sensitive,
but high-spirited."
Now, we regret to say, that this is
not an uncommon case. Much of the
sweetness and charm of home relation
ship is lost by the growing prevalence
of a spirit of banter. of practical jok-
ing.
Young people, especially, are apt to
fall into this very dangerous habit, not
from any intention to be unkind, but
because they think it smart and witty.
Sometimes the simplest remark will be
greeted with. shouts of laughter, the
cause of the merriment not being APP
parent to the poor victim. and for that
matter to no one else; the fun consist
ing in the spectacle of the confusion
which this unkindness creates. We
have known a member of family to
undertake to relate some incident
which, if he we're allowed to proceed,
would not only amuse but instruct the
little group around the tea table; but
he would be interrupted at every SEN
tence by some frivolous question or in
appropriate remark, and this would be
continued until the whole thing was
turned into ridicule, and the narrator,
hurt and offended, refused TO proceed.
We can all readily understand the feel
ings which would obtain in the mind of
sensible person after several such
trials.
The certain tendency of such joking
will be not only to put stop to all
serious, sensible conversation, but to
create reserve which may come to be
complete deadlock to all demonstra-
lions of love and affection in the fam
lily, for no one is willing to unveil their
real feelings and sentiments if they are
sure each word is to be criticised, and
every show of feeling ridiculed. If one
cannot find sympathy and appreciation
in the bosom of ones family, where are
we to look for it?
Now, we would not say q word
against cheerful, lively atmosphere IN
the home. On the contrary, we would
encourage everything which will give
real happiness. We would be in favor
of the largest liberty in the way OF fun
and merrymaking, provided that 1t De
proper and kind; that it be nothing
which can call blush of shame or an
novance to the cheek of any member OF
the family.
.Twitting on facts may be I'M
mensely diverting to all; but those at
whose expense the laugh is raised, even
though they may put on bold front

The Legislative Assembly.

Although all of the election returns
are not in from the various precincts
of Laramie county, there are enough
to settle the question of election. 1t
is hardly probable that the additional
returns will displace the three lowest
candidates. AS the thing stands, the
following named gentlemen are as good
as elected: Council = Messrs. Post,
Glafcke, johnson and Swan. House
S~harplesss, Hubbard, Hardin, Davis,
Irvine, Conroy, Deitrick, J. s. Taylor,
and Mann. Everybody will concede
that the delegation is as good a one as
has yet gone from Laramie or any other
county Of the territory. Politically, it
stands: republicans, three in the coun-
Gil, and six in the house. On the capt.
tai question they are solid; no treason
whatever.

Our GROWING took immensely well
yesterday.
The freman's tournament in Omaha
came off on Tuesday.
Everybody is going to the circus to-
day, as a matter of course.
Two trains of tea passed east yester-
day and two more will pass through to-
day.

tions for the coming fair.

their praises Of the Sells Bros circus,
which will show in Cheyenne to-day.

dence Of Mr.. Marcus Ford, west end Of
Eighteenth street, this evening at 7:30

The prayer meetings at the Congre-
gational and Presbyterian churches
were well attended and very interest
ing last evening.
The city council decided last evening
to advertise for bids to dig a ditch and
construct another reservoir for water.
A very wise proceeding.
Wyoming has a colored member
elect of the legislature, in the person
of VIM. j. Hardin, Of Cheyenne. His
name was on both tickets, and his
election is a moral triumph for the peo-
pie. What other territory or northern
state can boast Of such liberalityp
The campaign committee Of the
workingmen's and peoples meeting,
and the people generally are to be COM
mended highly for their invaluable ser
vices on election day. To their per-
severance and consistency are to be
attributed the grand results Of the day.
The Durant FIRE company held a
lively business meeting last evening.
Quite a large amount of minor business
was transacted, amongst which there
was a committee appointed to confer
with the city council in regard to i'm
proving the hose they have at present,
which is in a very bad condition.
Mr.. 2. R. Brockway, general super
intendent of the New York state re-
formatory institution at Elmira, has
subscribed for the LEADER for his in
stitution. Having selected the leading
papers of the various sections Of the
country, the LEADER naturally came to
be chosen as the representative paper
of Wyoming.
While Constable T. F. Talbot was
busy at the polls on Tuesday some mis-
creant took to hunting his ducks. Eight
of the web-footed fowl were shot, six Of
which were carried of. As might be
supposed, Tom is somewhat hot over
the affair, and offers a reward Of ten
dollars for the apprehension Of the
"dastardly cur +" who did the damage.
Observe Mr.. John Houghan's card of
thanks elsewhere. Mr.. Houghan will
leave to-day for Denver, where he will
remain henceforth. During his resi-
dence in Cheyenne he has made many
valuable and lasting friendships and
his departure will be keenly regretted.
He will take with him the kindest
wishes for his future welfare. The
