A Wisconsin oma was recently lost
in the woods four days. Several people
heard her cries, but they thought the
noise was the sounds of a propeller

SHEEP AMI CATTLE.

The Merino sheep family, under its
various titles and in its many divisions,
is numerically the leading sheep family
in the world. OF the AZ, 100000 sheep
in the United States 1t Is estimated
that about tbree-ffths are of fine wool
lineage, In long woods and medium
woods, the great mutton breeds, England
leads the world.
There are twenty-five counties in
Kansas that have over 20, 900 sheep, and
they run as high as 60, 1000.
Mr. Forbes, the English correspondent
in giving his views of the celebration at
Yorktown, spoke of the condition of
that region as being behind the times
and remarked that the Virginia cattle
reminded him of the rants raised by the
Zulus. This is a striking commentary
upon the influences of civilization in
modifying a breed, and is a strong argu-
ment in favor of the circulation of our
agricultural papers which deal in live
stock interests, as almost a public duty.
1t is through the influence of the press
in continually calling attention to the
results which have been achieved in
cattle breeding, and the measures which
have pro duced them that the class o
animals which are now so almost uni
versally found in the West have been
obtained. Mr.. Forbes might travel far
Thorough the West without finding oc-
casion for such a remark as is ascribed
to him for Virginia. Indeed, education
seems to be at the foundation of all great
progress, and among the educational
agencies the press stands high. If a
special interest is to be developed, then
a special education for that interest
must be attempted and what better
schoolmaster is available than the pressP

up all night, not being able to procure
a bed.

but a metallic casket was forwarded to
Sidney to his friends, who insisted upon
carrying the remains to Omaha, that

Chicago, July 3..-A special dated
last night from Boston says: The
steamer Stamford, licensed to carry 600
passengers, left for Plymouth this
morning at 10 O'Clock with nearly 1000
OF board. She should have reached
her destination at 1:30 o'clock, but did
not arrive until A p. m. She was so
heavily loaded that one of her guards
was all the way down. The passengers
were so frightened that $50 of them
chartered a special train or the Colony
railroad and came up that way, refus-
ing TO return by boat.
There was great excitement caused
tonight by the umor that she had
been lost. 1t is probable, however, the
report arose an imperfect knowledge OF
the facts.

London July 31.-The Times says:
We have ample reasons for believing
that the expedition the porte has now
determined to send to Egypt was for
no other object than to thwart and OPP
pose the efforts hat England is nov
making to restore order there. A CO.
operation might be accepted il Turkey
should send a moderate contingent to
act under orders Of a British comman-
der, The obvious design of Turkey is
to exclude England. 1t is there
fore more trifing to continue negotia-
tions for the purpose Of getting such
worthless pledges OF Lood faith as a
proclamation against Arab Paslia. 1t
is for the British cabinet to appreciate
the gravity TO the situation and devise
measures guarding the national inter
ests and for the vindicatiDn of the ma
tional honor, both of w~hich:are in seri-
ous jeopardy.

In an article printed on Friday in the
Omaha Herald, under the above head.
ing, a sketch is given of J. w. Bosler of
Pennsylvania, well known in Cheyenne.
The following are extracts: "He has
become a leader if not a boss in
Pennsylvania politics, president of an
immense car manufacturing establish
ment, and last but not least, possessed
of the renowned, famous and valuable
cattle ranch in New Mexico, lately
owned by ex-senator and ex-secretary
of the republican national committee,
and ex-( P)-star route W. L. Dorsey.
Mr.. Bosler still retains his interest in
the extensive ranch on the Platte, near
Ogallala, which has so long borne his
name and which will hereafter, as in
the past, be cared for by his brother, ].
Il. Bosler, who is well known in
Omaha.
The Dorsey ranch was the best ap.
pointed on the continent, and in addi-
ton to the land SO purchased and an
nexed, the wiley ex-senator made a surer
foundation for the ownership by pur-
chasing an old Spanish grant conveying
absolute ownership of some 80, 000 acres,
upon which have been erected hand
some residence buildings for the owner,
superintendent, and employees, and large
and we'll arranged borns and corrals
for shelter and protection OF the live
stock. To protect his water privileges
and continue, his usual tactics of keep
ing outsiders out and insiders in, Dor
sey has built nearly one hundred miles
of strong wire fence with cedar posts,
said to be almost as large around as a
mans body, strung with No. 7 tele-
graph wire, which will last a hundred
years.
Charlie Woolworth, of Omaha is in
charge of the entire ranch and stock,
and MI. Bosler has the fullest conf
dence in his ability to manage it. He
has been with him now, off and on, for
the last six or even years, and has per-
fectly learned his ways and means of
herd management.
There are now on the Dorsey range
considerably more than 1900 head of
cattle, and a band of nearly 1900
horses, from which are raised COW po-
nies' and a few heavy draft horses.
The boys use up over 800 ponies every
year, and a large band of mares are
kept to supply them. Bosler branded
this year 1000 calves and he expects
next year to brand 10, 1000, and it is on
ly a question of time when the number
runs up to 90, 200 or %, 600, and by that
time they will be all bigh grades, and
the range the most profitable of any on
| the continent.
