Singular Spring,

A singular spring is located within a
few miles Of Laramie, the discovery of
which does not date back very far, and
description of which has never ap-
peared in print. The so-called "soda
lakes" are well known to every one
who lives at or near Laramie. In one
of these, and about five or six fcetfrom
the shore, stands a large, round bunch
of grass, several feet across. Sur
rounding this little oasis is the water
of the lake-so strongly impregnated
with alkali, or sulphate of soda, that it
cannot be held in the mouth more than
few seconds and inside the oasis is
a pool, or spring, of pure, clear, cold
water Poles twenty feet long have
been thrust into this pool without find
ing the bottom. Though the whole
country Whereabouts is literally filled
with alkali, this little spring furnishes
the purest water, and those who pass
the lake often on their way to and from
the city have placed wide board from
the bank to the "oasis," and the we'll
worn path tells how often they have
visited it in order to quench their thirst.

The Secret of Popularity,

An Austin man who was candidate
for certain political office, was badly
beaten at the polls by one whom we
will designate as Brown. The next
day the defeated candidate strolled in
to saloon where he owed q consider
able bill, and, with an air of deep de-
lection, called for a toddy. After
drinking it, he remarked to the bar
keeper: ....
Don't you feel sorry that was de-
feated Yesterday"

vacious saloon-keeper.
But, don't you see, if had been

bill, but now you will have to wait on

the saloon-keeper, ''but if you had been
elected Brown would have been defeat

bar bill as yours"

As there is now much apprehension
about the cholera, which is again march
ing westward with steslthy steps, sweep
ing away the population Of cities on its
march. the people who may be called by
business to go within it's baleful track
should have remedy that may be ap-
Piled promptly and sifectually.
Having been in cholera smitten cities
at various times, when death seemed to
be in all the air. the writer takes pleasure
in giving currency 70 simple remedy
which appears to be dead shot to this
terrible plague. 1t can be carried in the
baggage Of every tourist, and kept ct
hand in every family. The remedy is
cheap and simple, and disarms the dead
ly foe like magic. 1t is simply chloro-
form drank in water. Puta tablespoon
full in seven other spoonfuls Of water,
and swallow il - soon as the frst symp-
tom Of the diseass appears. Many Of
the readers Of the HERALD will doubtless
happen to be within the poisoned air Of
the cholera within the NEXT six months,
and should provide themselves with this
remedy which will give them safety from
this violent and terrible scourge. This
remedy has cured Thousands of cases,
and in our range Of observation has
never failed In single instance. The
fear Of the disease depresses the power
Of the system to resist it, and leads TO
its fearful spread but with this remedy
at hand at all times there is no fear, but
confidence in ones self, that makes
strength and safety. A remedy that has
been so successful In the past can be
trusted in the future. Ii is full Of heart
and hope to those who are exposed to
this invisible destroyer that will soon
land on the shores Of America.

The American Forestry Congress has
just closed another important session
at their annual Congress-, which was
held this year at st. Paul. Minnesota.
The cheering news was given to the
Congress by the President, Hon. George
B. Loring. Of Massachusetts,. that by
the agitation Of the subject Of forest Gull
ture for few years past great work
was going on in the land in restoring
portion Of the country back to forests.
So active is this work In New York,
Ohio, Maine and many of the northern
States that the area OF forests was abb
solutely increasing, and the good work
kept going right onward. In Los An
geles there has not been as much atten-
tion paid to forest culture during the
past year as there should have been,
but we discover a little more interest
being awakened during 1888. Judge
Ranney. Of Florence, we observe, has
200, 900 eucalyptus trees that he is pre-
pairing for forest uses. With his grand
flowing well Of fifty inches the Judge
can plant this kind Of tree at any
periot Of the summer. and we hope that
he will set his neighbors an example by
planting beautiful grove of this most
valuable tree. There should lie mil
lion OF these trees planted during this
year in the county. All the county
roads should be lined with this rapidly
growing and beautiful tree. What
farmer will start the ball first!

Another Victim.

Early yesterday morning the body Of
Chas. J. Woolson. who had rooms at the
b oarding house of Mrs. Gray, in the
Ponet building, ON Main street, was
found in the embrace Of death, and
Coroner Nadeau notified, who held an
inque ON the remains. DR.. H. May
nard knew the diseased was in the habit
Of taking opium, for relief from
severe rheumatic pains in the side
Of bis head He saw him the day bo-
fore, when deceased told him he had
nst slept for Ave nights. He had been
taking chloral hydrate. These powerful
remedies and the intense suffering had
weakened his mind, and it is supposed
that he determined to end his sufferiDgs
ct once by taking poison, or else took
what he thought necessary to allay the
pain. On his bureau in addition to his
regular preparation was phial Of NOR
phins and and another Of strychnine,
the former was nearly empty, and from
the latter portion had been taken.
The Doctor thought his death was caus-
ed from q dose Of strychnine. Henry
w. o'Melveny, friend Of the deceased
said he know the deceased to be native
Of New York twenty-eight years Of age,
with his family residing In Cleveland,
Ohio. Knew him to be great suffer
from disease and thought his mind had
become dsranged. After hearing the
testi mony and viewing the remains the
jury rendered verdict TO the effect that
deceased came to his death by dose Of
strychnine administered by himself,
with suicidal intent, while suffering
from mental alteration.
Mr.. Woolson was gentleman OF cu.-
tare, and belonged to literary family.
He had formerly been engaged in a
banding institut ion in the city Of New
York. Daring . portion Of his resi-
dsnee il this city he was . book keeper
for II. Newmark & Co., but Of late his

beloved by his friends. His sister is
