Mr.. A. B. Quinn, Of Beckwith, Quinn
Go. of Evanston, called at The LEADER
Office yesterday morning, for the purpose
Of correcting many Measurements made
by the SIN in an alleged interview. The
report, as published by the SIN. does
great injustice to Mr. Tisdcl, OF Rock
Springs, the superintendent of the coal
mines; Mr.. Quinn asserts that his language
regarding Mr.. Tisdel, was either misun-
derstood or willfully misrepresentcd. He
saws he has known Mr.. Tisdcl for fifteen
years, and for seven years as superintend-
ent Of the coal mines. He has ever been
an upright, conscientious manager of the
company interest, painstaking and eco
nomical in his position, rs well as in his
personal affairs. He has earned a salary
of 81, 500 per annum, and has saved up
his earnings, which is moro than his ira
ducers have done, and for which he has
obtained their cnmity. Mrs. Tisdel has
been for years a teacher in the public
schools, and is at present the s%uperintend-
ent Of public instruction for Sweetwater
county, showing that she has the respect
and support of her fellow citizens at
home. She has assisted her husband in
accommodating the property they now
possess, and all has been earned by hon
est labor and faithful attention to duties
1t is rather poor business fora newspaper
to decry n man because he has by indus
try, economy and strict application to
business, during a term of more than
fifteen years, saved up a fair competency
for himself and family.

4 SODA SET UP.



The Denver Tribune RooaJiioaa of
Thursday contained an article on Wyo-
ming soda, from which the following ex-
tract is made.
Mr.. John II. Poole, Of The Denver
Soap company, has just returned from
Laramie City, where he went to inspect
the local caustic soda plant and ascertain
the actual character of the caustic soda
chemical turned out by the Laramie
Chemical works.
The visitor was highly pleased with
what he saw. He finds the percentage
and quality sufficiently high to compare
very well with the famous Grcenbank or
English alkali, so that the soap makers
west of the Missouri river need no longer
depend on the imported article; and he
predicts a big future for this new soda
market, if the Union Pacific railroad
which owns the plant. adheres to the
statement, accredited to President Adams,
that it should be the policy Of his road to
build up local traffic,
As things are now, the Messrs. Poole
are DESTROYS of competing further with the
Eastern manufacturers, and trusting in
President Adams promise, have ordered
largely of caustic soda from the Laramie
works for immediate trial at their factory
in the manufacture of soap. The Denver
Soap works alone can use about $4,000
worth of this stock yearly, and the funds
will be thus kept in the West instead of
going East
The cost to manufacture the caustic
soda is very slight The deposit at the
lakes costs nothing to begin with. 1t is
dug out ike so much sand and hauled
with teams to the factory, where 1t is
refined for commercial use. With this
cheap raw material landed in Denver, the
local soap company will be better able
than ever to snap their fingers at the New
York and Chicago houses. who have for
SO long been trying to break them mp and
m%nnopolize the Denver market.

4 REMARKABLE STORY.

Men have made strange pets in their
time. Mr.. Jabez Hogs keeps some Of the
strangest in the form Of o few of the infu-
soria called " wheel animalcules" These
rotifers have many curious qualities, among
which is that of suspending animation for
an indefinite period without ceasing to live.
Colonies of rotifers may be desiccated, -
and rendered apparently lifeless and in
this condition they may be kept for months,
and years, and possibly centuries. single
drop Of water will restore them to life, and
the wheel bearers will instantly resume their
functional activity precisely at the point
where II WAS so rudely broken off," This
reminds US of a story, often repeated,
though possibly not capable OF standing the
strictest investigation. A British sailor at
the battle of the Nile, at the moment when
the officer of the watch said to him, I" Do
you make out the flagship on the port or
starboard bow, Bill ~ was struck by bull
let in the headA For fifteen months that
sailor remained insensible, but not dead,
with ball in his skull which could not be
extracted. In the fulness Of time he was
taken TO Greenwich Hospital and trephined,
when the foreign body was removed from
the neighborhood Of his brain. Then he
rubbed his eyes and said instantly, just
off the starboard, sir."-St. James Gazette.

, BACHELOR FARMERS.

The ordinary degree conferred upon the
college student who successfully pursues the
regular academic course is Bachelor of Arts.
The degree of Bachelor of Science was estab-
lished for those who choose o scientific
course. As is weIl-known, many of our
leading institutions of learning, maintain
schools OF agriculture, where instruction is
given in the principles of scientific farm.
ing but up TO the present time, no degrees
have been conferred in such departments.
Now, however, Harvard University APP
pears tc have come to the conclusion that
the young farmer ought to have degree
Just as well as the young literary man, or
the young scientific man, or the young
clergyman, or the young lawyer, or the young
doctor so 1t has determined to confer upor
the graduates Of its agricultural department
the title of Bachelor of Agricultural Science.
We don't know how this will work. 1t liz
certainly novel. We are inclined, however,
to think that after young man has thor
oughly studied the science Of farming, he
will feel like settling down on his farm and
ceasing to be bachelor, in any sense. A
good farm and good wife will suit him
better than all the high-sounding titles In

THE PEANUT.


A scientific journal having recently said
that the manufacture of oil from peanuts
was destined to draw ON the crop to such an
extent that the nuts would become scarce
article Of trade rs food nut in the near
future, u reporter asked Wholesale dealer
in peanuts for further information on tho
subject. gri
g There isn't pint of peanuts made into
oil in this country that l know Of, and
never will be as long ms the greasy cotton
seed holds out" he said. Before they be-
gan to make cottonseed oil peanuts were
used largely in manufacturing an oil that
was used in place Of olive oil, and during
the war great deal of the illuminating oil
used in the South was made from peanuts
the entire crop being used for the purpose
The making of the peanut oil was a very
extensive industry in France for many
years before the introduction of the cotton
seed oil, add in those days at least fifty per
sent. OF the oil imported by US as olive oil
was either pure oil of peanut or olive oil
adIlterated with peanut oil. France makes
considerable peanut oil yet, and America is
the chief buyer of this product, and We eat
it as we'll as our cottonseed oil, when we eat
oil at all, in nine tenths OF the restaurants
and hotels, and imagine il is the genuine
olive grease. The nut now chiefly used in
France for oil making is the African ground
nut, which all through tropical Africa is
largely raised and is used, cooked or raw,
as food. 1t is exported III large quantities
to France from Guinea and Angola. 1t is
richer in oil by one-third than the peanut,
and is put on the Marseilles market
cheaper by half than the American nut can
be sold there. The peanut lover need have

ABOUT GAS.

If your gas bills are unpleasantly high
one reason may be that your gas fixtures
are out of order. 1t may be safely said that
most every family pays for more gas than
they burn, and this is not oil through the
fault of the gas company. It is most un-
usual to have the gas fixtures examined and
repaired save when positively necessary.
The head of the house, influenced by ex-
travagant economy, will not have the fix
lures looked after and the required changes
made SO long as they will give an apology
for light, and in the meanwhile the i'm
perfect burners are running his bill up ut
tremendous rate. Burners, like every
thing else, wear out, and must be renewed
from time to time. The neglect of gas
burners is also exceedingly dangerous to
health, if not to life, and it is now generally
believed that many deaths supposed to have
been caused by blowing out the gas have in
reality happened through gas streaming
into the rooms through leaks. II woald be
money in our pockets TO have our gas fix.
lures overhauled at stated intervals, and 1t
would save our eyes and our tempers and
stormy interviews at the gas Office. Sunday
night gas is the worst gas of the week be-
cause the pressure is reduced, ON the theory
that many places open other evenings are
closed then. There is truth in that, but
the demand for gas Sunday night is not SO
small as might be supposed. Numerous
societies hold their meetings then, there are
many Sunday night receptions at private
houses, and though the churches let out
early, they have many burners. Progrsss.
