There are penalties as well as pleas
ures attending the worlds honors.
Our president elect, whose accession to
the highest place in the gift of the peo-
pie gives him the disposal OF a large
public patronage, is already besieged by
a large percentage of those who have
enjoyed his acquaintance at all periods
of his life. In his own genial way he
has classified these in groups.
First, he says, there is the neighbor-
hood group, comprising 4 circle of ac-
quaintances, including a majority of
voters in the nineteenth congressional
district. Second, the school group, in
Guiding those he went to school and
college with. the pupils he las taught,
and the acquaintance be has made as a
teacher, at institutes, educational con-
ventions, etc. Third in order is the
church group; the Disciples church,
though not large in membership, is,
perhaps for that very reason, all the
more clannish, embracing an earnest,
sincere membership, and unlike many
other sects, causing an intimacy of ac-
qu%aintance even among people living
widely apart, and who know each other
by reputation rather than personal
friendship. This sect, least among the
sects in numbers, radically opposed to
them in many respects, feels a natural

We have n pair of carriage horses
which are much attached to n anoth-
er. They are very sagacious animals,
and their capacities have probably been
brought out by the great kindness and
attention with which the coachman has
invariably treated them; at any rate
the following anecdote indicates con-
siderable development. One morning
a great noise heard in the stable at
tracted the attention of a maid-servant
who was in the yard outside, and think
ing something wrong might be going
on, she looked in at the door and saw
that IL of the horses had made his way
out of his own loose-box, the door of
which was unfastened, and had found
out a bucket of mash, which was
standing in the entrance of the stable
and taking the opportunity while the
coachman was in the loft overhead, he
was helping himself freely to the con-
tents. The other horse, who was fas-
TEN ed into his own loose-box, caught
sight of his friends proceedings, and
neighing loudly, evidently demanded a
share for himself, and the servant was
astonished to see the horse who was
enjoying himself fill his mouth with the
mash and poke his nose through the
bars of the loose-box for his friend to
take it from his mouth. This was done
several times. The horse that was fed
by his friend had been known on for
mer occasions to push over the remain
der of his hay into his companions
rack when they had been emptied
before his own.-Land and Water.

WE have never been able to under
stand any well grounded objection that
has been raised against Lessep's Pana-
ma canal. 1t will not pay, says one.
Well, If foreign capital stands ready to
built it, why oppose it? The canal will
float American ships from the Atlantic
10 the Pacific ocean-a distance of about
forty miles-and facilitate the shipping
interests between the two oceans. In
this the people of the United States
are more interested than any other.
Does il interfere with the Nicaragua
canal except only that 1t will be n
shorter and better ronte1 If the Mica
ragua route has merits and advantages,
it will be built some day. 1t cannot be
at present, but the Lesseps canal can
be built and probably will be. The
foolish talk about applying the Monroe
doctrine to the Panama canal ought not
to receive mnch attention. The Monroe
doctrine is that no European monarchi-
cal power should be allowed TO control
any of the North American govern
ments. 1t is a stretch of the imagina-
tion to say that this applies to the build
ing of an important canal by m asso-
citation Of citizens with the aid of for
eign capital. And it is getting TO be
rather late in the progress of the worlds
interests to oppose the building of i'm
portant lines of canals and railways,
provided individuals are ready to fur
nish the money for the improvements.

HOMEMADE ~IIGHTNISG.
A Remarkable Mountain Of Magnetic
or EIerIFie Hsek

Some time ago the Tribune had oeea-
sion to call attention to the Ada Mine,
on Snake Greek in this territory. IL
will be remembered that mention was
made of a strange kind of rock found
in the tunnel of that mine that emitted
q bright glow, as phosphorus does when
rubbed or hammered at with hammer
or pick. This was at the time CLASH
fed for want of a better name, as
phosphuretic rock. The miners in the
district called it shells fire rock" and
the tunnel is known in the neighborhood
as .'hell's hole" II. N. Baskin, owner
of the mine, recently forwarded some
samples of this strange rock to the
professors Of chemistry ut Yale College.
On careful analysis it was found to
contain no phosphorus, as at first sur
missed; but the subtle power that gave
light to the rock bafled the sages of
New Haven, and the broad term. mag
netic or electric rock was given to it.
This is something new in mining. Mi
ners sometimes get struck by lightning
but this is the first well authenticated
instance on record where a miner has
struck lightning. Again, in this pro-
gressiye age, when gas and coal oil be-
gin to take a back seat, this discovery
of a mountain of ready made electricity
may become a PURGE of incaioulable
value to its owners.
Our local telegraph offices need only
run a wire from the Ada tunnel to
their instruments to obtain a perma-
nent supply of electricity. The trouble
and expense of replenishing batteries,
replacing broken jars, ETC., would be
entirely dispensed with, and ''hell's
holen home made lightning always on
hand free of charge. The benefits to
be derived from this discovery a well
be imagined, but it is not necessary at
this time to point out all of them, as n
more complete description of the prop
erty and the various uses to which its
strange power can be applied will be
given at some future time, upon the
organization of the HelI's Hole Ready
Made Lightning Company.-Soh Lake

The LEADER enters the new year
with a larger circle of regular readers
than it had at any previous period of its
history, and the important events of
the ensuing year must steadily enlarge
the field of enterprising journalism.
The LEADER will be conducted in
the future, rs it has been in the past,
as an Independent republican news
paper, earnestly and fearlessly devoted
to integrity and reform in the admin
stration of public affairs. 1t will con-
scientiorsly oppose corruptionists and
rings, whether in city, county, territory
or nation. 1t will continue to battle
against every form of imperial political
domination, whether represented by an
individual or by a faction. 1t will
labor increasingly for the development
of tho of Cheyenne and the
Territory at large,an will make known
to the world the vast advantages to be
derived from n proper improvement of
of our many capabilities for producing
wealth.
The LEADER begins the new year
strengthened in all It's already exccp.
tionally strong departments. Its
large list of contributors will be more
than maintained; its reliable news cor
respondence will be unsurpassed by that
of any other journal of this section; its
various departments essential to a
complete newspaper for the home and
family circle will be constantly en-
livened by fresh writers; and it will
maintain the position it has won solely
on its merits, as one of the most reliable
and complete newspapers of the conn-
try.

Undoubtedly the second section will be
