On this subject the Denver TiJune-
Republican, says;
Wyoming. as usual, presents a superb
display, and this is owing chiefly to the
efforts Of Ex-Governor Hoyt. who has
been here for some time past superintend-
ing the arrangements Of products. The
display occupies the old pavilion, in the
center Of the north wing. 1t is one ofthe
most striking in that se.tion of the buil1-
ing. An immense pyramid Of coal oc-
eupies the center Of the place, while
around are glAss cases containing speci-
mems Of valuable ores, fossils, wool, etc.
There is manufactured iron, building
stone, timber, agricultural products and
other things Of interest. The place is
and roomy, is nicely carpcted and

Mrs. B1ndt Tries 10 End Them with a
Dose Of Morphine.

Mrs Charles Blindt. residing on Six
eenth street, attempted to commit suicide
yesterday by taking a dose Of MORPHINE.
for some time Mrs. Biindt has been de-
pendent on account Of the death Of her
lister in New York City.
Yesterday, in company with a friend,
he visited one Of the drug stores in this
ity, and her nervous actions al. rlcted the
ittention of the clerk.
Fairly in the afternoon she took a dram
fmorphine with the intention of putting
IN end to her sorrows. The poison ie-
leted and she was attacked with a fit Of
'omiting. Her friends Immediately sum
noned DR.. Hunt who administered antl-
Totes Il the poison, and in the evening
she was out Of danger. Had she taken a
mailer dose she would have succeeded in

The ordinance authorizing the employ
ment of a sexton at the cemetery was
taken u. and discussed at length. The
salary of the sexton was the theme of dis
cussion.
Mr.. Riner moved that the salary of
the sexton be placed at $500 per year in
lieu of all fees, and the resolution was car
ried.
A petition was presented asking that
license of auction stores be fixed at the
rate of $500 per quarter. A motion to
suspend the rules was made, and an in
teresting debate followed. When the
roll was called the motion to suspend was
lost.
Mr.. Warren now offered the resolution
which had he given notice in the early part
of the evening he intended to present.
He moved that the chairmen of the com
mittees on water works and sewerage,
nublie health and cemeteries and finance,
be appointed to investigate the propriety
and feasibility of fencing in the lakes,
and report the result Of their investiga-
ton to the next meeting. The motion
was carried and the council then ad-
journed.

AM ,TEuR ARcmERs.
An Innocent Diversion Which Causes
UneaAiness 10 tho Spectators.

There is an archery club in this city.
The neighbors are aware Of the fact, al
though few Of our people may be. Ev.
cry pleasant afternoon quite a party get
together and discharge the contents of
their CULVER at a target as large as a wheel
of fortune. The distance is about twenty
PAGES, and none Of the contestants
have been as yet able to hit it, if the &C.
counts given by the spectators are TO be
relied upon.
There ought to be a change in the pro-
gramme. The shootists ought either to
hit the target or stop practicing. A
medical practitioner became SO alarmed ut
the reckless mInner in which the arrows
were drifting about the neighborhood
that he sent his chi lren to a ranch to
pass their vacation. His dog, which had
LATED about the premises for the last
year or SO. got insensel and left without
bidding the family an affectionate fare
well.
In fact, the ne'ghborhool has only one
attraction for Il residence. It'll impossible
to send a collector there. Last Monday
being the first OF the month, the bill
pressnters were out in great force. About
L dozen strlyed near the archery grounds,
taking the %precaution to keep as far away
from the TARGET as possible. They wished
now tnat they had taken a lunch with
them and dined right under it's shadow,
as that proved the only safe place in the
vicinity.
OF course it is all very fine for the par
%ticipan,s.. 1t affords 4 fine opportunity
for striking the attitude of an Apollo
Belvidere and an excellent chance for
harmless filtration, but they ought to re-
member that the peace and happiness Of
others is to be respected. Knowing this
they should endeavor to confne their at
tention to the targets and let the outside
world alone.

A BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY.
The Wyoming Exhibit at the Denver
Exposition
Finally Got Into a Really Decent
Condition.
Good Result of Ex-Governor HOyt's
Unselfsh Lahors.

The appended letter from Ex Governor
Hoyt to Secretary Morgan will be read
with great interest since the successful in
auguration Of the Denver Exposit on. and
more especially as it clearly shows that
Wyoming's exhibit IS something to be
really proud of. That such a credltable
showing is made is due almost entirely to
the efforts of Ex-Governor IIoYt, who in
his capacity as private citizen, volunteered
his services to acting Governor Morgan in
order that the exhibit, which wal in a
condition little less than disgraceful, might
be 80 attended to that it would thorough
ly represent the material prosperity of
Wyoming
The letter is as follows:

Charles B Henry's death was particular
ly tragic. Driven to despair by his frishp
full hunger, Henry saw an opportunity TO
steal more than his share of rations, and
made the attempt. He was found out AMI
shot for his crime. In the published
official report the death of this man Is set
down as having occurred on June 6th.
When the body was found the hands and
face, though shrunken, were intact and
recognizable, but nearly everywhere else
the skin had been stripped from him and
flesh picked from the bones. Even his
heart and lungs were eaten by his com
rades. One rib was found shattered by a
rife ball, and other small fragments Of lead
attached. \ bullet hole was found in the
skin. The body was in this condition
when it was buried in Cypress Hill Gene
terry on Saturday
Whether the bodies which were swept
out to sea and We're never recovered would
add further evidence 10 this story of hor-
ribe cannibalism cannot be learned now
though the papers in possession of tn,
Navy Department give all the particulars
as the told by survivors.

THE STORY DOUBTED.

W WAsHINGToH, August 12th.-The horrible
story published of the starving survivors Of
the Greely party crazed by starvation,
having fed on the dead bodies of their COM
rades, and that written documents in the
possession of the Navy Department fully
SUbstanti&tc the terrible narrative, created
a great sensation here and Admiral
Nichols, Acting Secretary OF the Navy, was
shortly bescged by newspaper men,
anxious IL ascertain something official con
corning the publication. The Admiral
says there Is absolutely nothing IN the
Navy Department confirming the story,
and he doubted its truth. 1t is possible,
however, that = report of this nature may
have gone direct to Secretary Chandler in
New Hampshire, as numerous documents
are forwarded to him without examination
here. Some persons express the opinion
quietly that there Is something in the story,
and say it is beginning to he known that
the Grecly party was not as harmonious as
has been generally supposed and that there
is a story relating to the expedition which
it was intended to conceal, but must come
out in the same way as the history of the
Jeannette's unfortunate cruise came to he
known to the public.
