Inducements will start for Tonquln
about the end of January.

HALE's HONEY OF HOREHOUND
AND TAR.

For the cure of coughs, colds, itiu-
enza, hoarseness, difficult breathing and
all affections of the throat, bronchial
tubes and lungs leading to consump-
ton. This sovereign remedy is COM
pounded from the favorite recipe of an
illustrious physician and chemist, who
for many years used it with the most
complete success in his extensive pri-
vate practice. He had long been pro-
foundly impressed with the wonderful
virtue of the plant horehound, in union
with the cleansing and healing proper
ties OF tar, extracted from the life prin-
ciple OF the forest tree Abies Balsemea,
or Balm of Gilead. For years he was
bafied in his attempts to blend these
great medicinal forces into such a union
that the original power Of each would
be preserved, the disag reeable qualities
of common tar removed, and the price
of the compound be within the reach of
all. At last, after a long course of
difficult chemical experiments, he found
that, by adding to those five other in
gradients, each one valuable by itself,
he not only obtained the desired re-
suits, but greatly increased the curative
power Of the compound. This, having
been thoroughly tested by practice, is
now offered to the general pvblic as a
safe, pleasant and infallible remedy.
Price so cents and 81 per bottle. For
sale by all druggists. Great saving by
buying large size.

CATION is a unit in his interests and
working hard to secure his election.
In the meantime they will reciprocate
so far as Wyoming is concerned, and
we hope to be able to secure for Gen
eral Fisher, of Cheyenne, some impor-
tant position, although he does not
want any office.
There is great dissatisfaction here
with the old officers, or some Of them at
least, and it is claimed that the debt
OF some sixteen thousand dollars which
has been saddled on to the department
is due to their mismanagement. But
of this more at some other time.
Denver does not seem to be very
lively at present, and from a mere cas-
ual glance around, L should Judge that
there is a pretty large skeleton hanging
up in the closets of the business men
here.
From an experience that | had / in
Denver nearly four years ago, and one
this forenoon when L wanted to find
642 Glenarme street, L should judge
that the Denverites know less about the
lay of the land in their own city than
any other place in the world. On the
former occasion L found men-two at
least-who wanted to bet me that there
was no such thing as Kansas avenue in
Denver, and this morning, after l had
followed Glenarme street until it ran
into a ~woodchuck's hole, L tried at
least a half dozen men to get them to
direct me to East Glenarme street.
Three of them said they didn't know
exactly, one of them said there was no
such street, and the fifth one in answer
to the interrogatorY replied, "Lemme

years ago, has reached a sale in this
country of over Il, 200 copies, and that
during the past six months the sales

The late great conductor, Sir Michael
Costa, had wonderful rapidity of eye,ear
and glance. He had a habit of listening
to the musicians likely to go wrong,
and they never escaped him. On one
occasion, when the swan in"Lohengrin"
failed to make its appearance at the right
moment he called out, Where's that
goose?" At another time in "William

the usual atmospheric disturbances,
ought to have come and did not,
"Whare's the thunder? ?" roared Costa

that Rev. p. J. Ryan, ID. D., of the
Catholic Province of st. Louis, Mo-,
has been appointed to the Archbishop
ric Of Philadelphia, Pa, made vacant
by the death of Archbishop Wood.
Father Ryan was born in Ireland fifty
three years ago, and came to America
In 1850. He is a classical scholar of rare
attainments, and has been pronounced
by good judges the most eloquent
preacher of his church in the United
States. Bishop Ryan's new province

The death near Liverpool England, OF
DR.. Richard Summer, aged Sc years,
recalls this story: On a stormy night in
December, 1888, a pilot boat containing
twenty-five persons struck on a bank
within sight of those on shore. Even
the hardy fishermen feared to put out
until Mr.. Summer who was a man OF
splendid physique, six feet six inches IN
hight, and of great strength, slung q
bottle Of rum round his neck, stripped
off his clothes, tied a slender line round
his body, andplunged into the seething
waves. He reached the vessel, poured
some rum dewn the throat of each half
dead man, ana SO encouraged them that
when the boat arrived they were saved.

III we could suddenly transplant our
selves from the gardens and groves Of
the nineteenth century into the midsto Of
o carboniferous Jungle on the delta Of
some forgotten Amazon or some prime
val Nile, we should find ourselves sur
rounded by strange and somewhat mon
otonous cenery, very different from
that of the varied and beautiful world in
which we ourselves now live. ! q
huge foliage Of gigantic tree-terns a
titanic club-mosses would wave over
our heads, while a green carpet OF pret-
ty trailing creepers would spread lux
uriantly over the damp soil beneath our
feet. Great swampy flats wouid
stretch around us on every
side; and instead of the
rocky or undulating hills Of Y familiar
Europe, we should probably see the IN
terror country composed only OF low
bridges, untitled as yet by the slow up
heaval Of ages into the Alps or Pyrenees
of the modern continent. But the most
striking popularity Of the scene wouia
doubtless be the wearisome uniformly
OF its prevailing colors. Earth beneath
and primitive trees overhead would all
alike present a single field Of unbroken
and unvarying green. No scarlet low,
Ell, golden fruit, or gay butterfly wotliu
give a gleam Of brighter and warmer
.coloring to the continuous verdure O.
that more than tropical forest. Green
and green, and green, again; wherever
the eve fell it would rest alike upon one
monotonous and unrelieved mass O.

| stupid lady, vino leans a5aihsta carnage
! door, let's slip:
"4h, Is IS charming here"
Now the procession enters the GENE
terry. The yocies are hushed. Nothing
is heard but the grinding of the wheels
on the sanded walks. The vault Of the
| counts family is at tho farthest end to
| the left-a lofty tomb of white marble,
ornamented with sculptures. They
place the coffin in front OF it, and the
discourses commence.
There are four of them. The eX-
Minister of State recalls the political
life of the defunct, whom he describes
as n modest genius, who would have
saved France if he had not despised in
trigue. Then q friend tells Of the pri-
vate virtues of him for whom all the
world weeps. Then an unknown man
spoke as delegate from an industrial
society, of which the Count was Honor
airy President. At last q little man
with a SOU face presents the regrets of
the Academy of Moral Science. Dur
ing all this time those assembled have
interested themselves with the adjoin-
ing tombs.
An old man with pinched lips, after
catching this part of a phrase: "The
qualities of heart, generosity, goodness,
lofty character" shakes his chin as he
murmurs:
"Well, yes, I knew him; it is a dog
ended"
The last adieu is lost in the air, and
soon there are none left In this secluded
corner, but the grave diggers who low
cred the coffin. The count is at home.
And the countess, on her lounge, has
not stirred. She continues to play with
the tassel of her girdle, her eyes on the
ceiling, lost in a r~everie, which, little
by little, has colored her blonde cheeks.
