An Aberdeen Angus steer, owned by
]. ]. Hill Of ST. Paul, took first prize at
the Chicago Fat stock show over all com
petitors. There is 10 question that the
Aberdeen Angus are atleast; the equal Of
any cattle in beef-rnakilg qualities.
When we add to this their shaggy coat
impenetrable to cold, their gentle dispo-
sition,: their inability to harm one anoth-
er owing to lack of horns and their rust
ling disposition only equalled by Texas
cattle, it requires no prophet to fore-tell
that they are the range cattle Of the
future. They are making more rapid
headway in public opinion than any
breed has done heretofore and a very
strong point in their favor is that every
owner immediately becomes an enthusi-

Last Tuesday we received q visit from
N. Wadsworth, Manager of the Bad
Lands cattle Co., who wished the follow
ing facts published, in answer to the
communication in last weeks Cow Boy:
When this animal in question, together
with a number of others was originally
branded, the work was done hurriedly
and as consequence, many were
branded too deeply. The brands on
twenty or more suppurated badly and
the animals were kept up for better care.
The particular animal in question was
kept for long time at the home ranch
corrall and on account Of the care it
required, became we1l-known to several
persons, The brand not only ssuppura-
ted freely, but; worms got in under the
skin, and necessited cutting it, several
times. OF course this, together with
the suppuration, blotched the brand.
The reason the animal was not
claimed this spring was that Mt. Wads-
Wortll's representa- atiyes who saw the ami
NAL when III was caught up were new
men and unacQnainted with the facts.
Frank Filbert who was with the round
up, knew the animal and all the circum-
stances of the branding s,but did not hap
pen to be present when the animal was
caught up. This was the reason she was
not claimed at the spring round up.
During his own beef round dsup this sum
fmer, Mr. WadsWorth, seeing the animal,
had her branded again, as he considered
| he had a perfect right to do, knowing
tile animal SO we'll. With reference to

lit is very manifest chat some one is In

I sDisllorning Cattle.

The operation Of dishorning calf Is
80 simple and SO easily performed that
one feels almost ashamed to describe it
for publication.
In the genus bos the horn
is hollow appendage of the skin: In
the very young calf this appendage is
merely the matrix Of the future horns
At tho age Of ten or fifteen days this
matriK is q small, hairless, movable
prominence This matrix, together with.
asmall band Of true hairy skin, one
|eigth OF an inch wide, can be removed
BY one sweep of a astrong, sharp pocket
knife, and forever after. the animal will
be hornless. s}}3 5l p.
Throw the calf on. its side, let an assist
ant press the side Of the head: firmly
against the earth. Let the operator now
grasp the matrix between the thumb
and two fingers of the left hand, place
| the edge of q sharp knife one -aigth Of an
finch outside Of the naked matrix, and,
with firm steady pressure, cut through
to the opposite side, the knife passing
between the base of the matrix and the
skull. 30 that q rim Of hairy skin, one-
eigth inch wide, remains attached to the
base of the matrix now amput utated and
held in the left hand. Turn the calf on
1.-The other side and in like manner remove
the other matrix. 4;tI isSt
This simple operation causes very lit
tie pain; the loss Of only about one ounce
Iof blood, and soreness for only a day or
Itwos The calf Is not injured or stlnted;
does not lose its appetite, and the wounds
heal more quibkly than those caused by
castrating The writer first performed
this operation In the fall Of 1868, and has
performed it annually since. His obser-
vations are that tho dishorned cattle
matureearlier. grow larger, and never
Einj1re each other. He is of the opinion
that more hornless than horned cattle
lean be shipped in d car Cor. Southern

BEEcHEn ON THE STAGE.

Henry Ward Beecher is more peculiar
than sensational and more entertaining
and instructive than either. A year or
two ago the venerable preacher was IN
weighed into a theatre, where he wit
messed one of the finished performances
of Henry Irving, since which the Ply
mouth pastor has changed his views
wonderfully regarding the influences OF
the stage. BeeclIer was present at
farewell banquet rendered to MI. Irving
the other day, and, as matter OF
course. was asked TO talk, and also as
matter OF course he complied with the
request. What he said may DE read
with profit by the hide-bound ministers
who cendem,; the theatre without know
ing What the play house is or whether it
teaches good or evil. Beecher said he
presumed that his hearers were sur
prised to see him ut banquet in honor
of All actor, and then continued:
II was born OF old Puritan stock, with
all the popular preiudices against the
stage. | was taught that the theatre
was the devil : house, tli;it an actor Wa
unregenerate and unredeemable, and
an actress-beyond words. In these
beliefs | refrained from attending
theatres. Once, not long ago. turned

Now YOU are robust, fortified by

their duty to be unhappy, because of the
compound interest it will bear in the
hereafter. Health and happiness are
worthy ends of endeavor. Happiness

HOPE FOR INGERSOLL.

Only now and then does that son Ct
Belial, Bob Ingerso)l, say anything that
is worthy the attention of decent, re-
putable people If it were not for his
blasphemy, his Republicanism is of an
order so black and foul that it would
condemn him. However, the wicked
Colonel recently said something
that is worthy of record and
preservation. Speaking of the causes
leading to Blaine's defeat, he SAID the
reason why the Republican candidate
failed of election was largely due to the
stand which he took in favor OF protec-
ton as cure-all for the evils of indus
trial depression. Every morning after
Blaine had been asserting from the
stump the beauties of protection. came
the news of some big factory closing up
and 1000 employees being thrown out
of work" That sort of thing stalked
after the Colonel like ghost, and forced
him to admit that business depression
came in spite of protection, and having
made this admission, his position as a
protectionist was gone. If Colonel
Ingersoll keeps on learning we may
hope that some of these days he will be
driven from his other position in regard
| to the hereafter.

BELL BEATEN.

The high-handed manner III which
the Bell Telephone company does
things is so Objectionable and has done
so much to win for it the enmity of
everybody, that all are pleased when
anything occurs to annoy the mono
poly or check it in course SO arbitrary
and unjust. 1t has just had a setback,
which breaks one branch of the
monopoly. The company leases terri
tory TO local companies, and imposes in
the leases a restriction that the only
telegraph company that shall be sup
piled with telephone service is the
Western Union, the two concerns being
in perfect harmony and sympathy as to
their methods of dealing with the
public. When the Baltimore &
Ohio Telegraph company opened an
Office in st. Louis it applied for tel
ephone connection, but as matter of
course the application was denied. The
telegraph company then applied to the
United States Circuit Court for a writ of
mandamus requiring the telephone
company to furnish the required
facilities. Judge Brewer has just
granted the writ, and in an opinion lays
down the law and equity of the case so
plainly that both the Western Union
and Bell people cannot fail to under
stand that the end OF their exclusive
combination has come. The Judge said:
"A telephone system is simply system
for the transmission of intelligence and
news. 1t is perhaps in a limited sense,
and yet in strict sense, common car
rier; it must be equal in its dealings
with ALL" This victory over
the robber concern is worth something
Perhaps one of these days something
else will arise over which the Bell can be
beaten. Monopolies usually overreach
themselves in time, and are brought
to terms. and 1t will be strange if the
Bell telephone shall prove an exception
10 the rule.

THE ASYLUM.

The other day a brief item in these
columns stated that the appropriation
for the Territorial Asylum would be ex-
hausted by the time the building was
ready for occupancy, leaving
nothing to meet the expenses
OF maintaining the institution,
and that as way out of the difficulty
the finance committee of the Asylum
board would ask the several counties
sending patients to the Asylum to pay
the full rates for support, care and
attendance of their insane until such
time as the Legislature made provision
for barring its share of the expense.
The request is a reasonab BILE
one, and should be willingly
acceded to by the County Courts. A
A rejection of the appeal will greatly
embarrass the board if it does not delay
the opening of the Asylum until the
meeting of the Legislature. As we
understand the matter one-half the cost
of keeping and caring for the patients
is to be borne by the County and the
other half by the Territory, and the
County is now asked to temporarily pay
the entire cost, the Legislature having
failed to provide fund from which the
Territory's proportion of the expense
can be drawn. 1t is believed that the
Asylum viii be ready for the reception
of the patients in May.
