Ny son, If you want to acquire the ability
of making short speeches, let me whisper in
your ear: Tell the truth just stick to the
plain, every day, unvarnished truth, and
you'll never talk longer than fifteen minutes
and sometimes you'll get through in one
heat, 1:114. If man comes home from the
brook and says simply: :" caught trout
that weighs Al pounds" you can believe
him. But If he begins by telling where he
bought his rod, how much he paid for it,
how big bass he took with it last summer,
what kind Of reel he had on, what fly he
used. the length and strength OF his casting
line and how long ho played the trout before
he landed it--my boy, that man mny begin
with the honestest intention in the world,
but by the time he gets the trout into the
landing net he will lie from three to five
pounds in spite of himself and Christian

MAKING THE BoRERs.
How and where Anglers are Bfastufae-
tured.

Like many of our most useful inyen-
TONS" said prominent auger maker re-
Gently, I" the principle of the auger now in
use all over the world was discovered by
accident. In 1850 Benjamin Pugh, an Eng.
lishman, while Watching some school boys
sndeavoring to bore hole in the ground
with piece of iron barrel hoop noticed that
after the hoop had been sunken some dis
tance into the earth and the flexible metal
Of their improvised boring tool had become
heated it twisted and carried the dirt up to
the surface nicely, and he could not see
why the same principle should not apply to
wood. The invention Of the auger was the
result. The screw auger," he continued,
" is an American invention, and was invent
ed about one hundred years ago by Thomas
Garrett, who lived in the vicinity of Oxford,
in Chester county, where most OF the black
augers are still made.
" Most of the bright tools are made down
East, but one of the principal manufactures
Is in this city. The old fashioned pod auger
is still used in England and Germany.
!" The single screw anger is also an
American invention, and was first discover
ed by accident by Philadelphian. It is
the only auger that can be used to any sat
isfaction in very hard woods, where the
double screw augers become clogged."
Although every one is perfectly familiar
with this commonplace tool, but compare
lively few know the process Of its manufac.
ture In making augers, the iron, which
forms the spiral part, is welded to the steel,
of which the tip is made, before forging.
The bar is then put under hammers aud
forged into shape. The bar is then put
into what is called " wringing machine
and twisted up in rough state into spiral
form, after which it is passed through
'fcrimpers, giving uniformity of twist.
The augers are next put through " straight
sners " and revolved, making them perfect
ly straight, when they are ready for putting
on the head, which is the most delicate OPP.

the work of n skilled artisan. They are Their
subjected to the grinding ont" process,
which consists of putting them through two
rubber wheels to rough polish tho twist.

Novel Corn.Plan,ins.


Tho means used in planting corn in tho
semi arid Kansas belt enables that region to
raise good crops of the great fattening grain
Of the United States. 1t is by means Of the
Listing pillow, which throws the soil into
high ridges, the middles being deeply pull
verified In addition. In the trenches the
corn Is planted down in the permanently
moist soil of the trenches, these being filled
up in the process of cultivation. This
trench, as plowed, is V-shaped, and sixteen
inches deep. Until the corn gets strong,
an inverted trough covers the rows as the
cultivator passes, preventing the plows from
rolling the soil over the plants. When the
corn is ready for the second cultivation the
trough Is laid aside. The shovels are set to
throw the earth to the corn plants, now
rong and two feet tall, and they are also
set to take the ground deeply. This Guilt
walton throws almost all the earth into the
trench that the lister threw out. The weeds
are deeply buried. The surface Of the field
Is level. The main roots Of the corn-plants
are at least ten inches below the surface OF
the ground, and how much further they
have sunk into the rich, damp, underlying
ground no one knows. But now no ordi-
nary drought affects the plants. The hot
southwest winds can blow, the mercury can
rise until the integrity of the thermometer
il threatened, the sun can course across q
cioudless sky for weeks, hnt the corn leaves
do not roll. The plants thrive, and, II .
soaking rain falls between the middle Of
June and the middle of July, the listing
corn will make full crop. Wiikc-

cAyer's Sarsaparilla.

Since then Mr.. LELAND has recommended
AYERS SARsAPARIBLA in many similar
cases, and he has never yet heard of its fall
ure to effect O radical cure.
Some years ago one Of Mr.. LELAND's farm
laborers bruised his leg. Owing to the bad
state Of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump appeared on the injured limb. Hor-
rible itching of the skin, with burning and
darting pains through the lump, made life
almost intolerable. The leg became enor-
mously enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities Of extremely
offensive matter. No treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Mr.. LELAED's direc-
tion, was supplied with AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA, which allayed the pain and irritation,
healed the sores, removed the swelling, aud
completely restored the limb to use.

impanneled and the case tried and argued
by counsel and submitted to the jury,
which returned into court last evening
with a verdict for defendant. Fisher and
Rowan tor plaintiff, Donzelmann and Van
Devanter for defendant. 10 this case the
plaintiff brought her suit against the pro
prietor Of the Sun for an alleged libel in
the publication Of an article rejecting
upon her conduct on October 4ih, 1884.
The plaintiff claimed S., 900 as damages.
The defense set up was a general denial,
also a plea of justification, ETC., alleging
the truthiulness Of the matter published.
Several witnesses were examined on both
sides. and among them a little boy about
10 years Of age, a son of the plaintiff.
The article of which the plaintiff com
planned, charged her and her hus'an
with certain conduct in the presence OF
children which was scandalous to the last
degree. The husband was only a step.
father.
The evidence disclosed the fact that a
daughter of the plaintiff, then about ] IS
years old (but since married), told of these
matters. and eventually related them to
| Constable Smalley and l~atterly to J.. G.
Baird, who was then county attorney.
They in turn told these things TO the local
editor of the Sun. and the article was
published upon this information. In
giving her testimony yesterday the girl
denied that she had ever told of these
matters, and said, speaking of the plain
tiff, "she is my mother, and of course |
am not going to swear against her.
The evidence of Messrs. Baird and
Smalley was that the girl did tell of these
matters, and just as they had been pub
lished in the Sun. Some of the evidence
given yesterday was altogether too out
rageous to be even limited at here. The
arguments by counsel we're quite spirited.
and the charge to the Jury by Judge
Llccy was fair minded and strictly impair
tial, and such that neither side reserved
exceptions.
Court adjourned until 10 o'clock to.
morrow morning.

PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION.
Who Would Act as President II Cleve-
land should DIE.

Not less than one hundred times, since
the death of Vice President Hendricks,
has the question been asked Of the local
hend' ofTHE LEADER as to what the sit
uation would be in case some crank should
now materialize and assassinate President
Cleveland. or he should die from any
cause. The question is. who would be,
or, rather, act, as PRESIDENT This is a
question which is now a topic of discus
sion among all classes in Cheyenne even.
The general impression that the president
pro tenn of the United States senate would
then act as president is incorrect. 1t
would, in that case, devolye upon con
gress to elect a person to act as president,
the only limitation to its authority being
hat it shall be an officer of the govern
ment," as will be seen in section 0 OF
article 2 Of the constitution Of the United
States, which reads as follows:
I'm case of the removal of the presi-
dent from Office or of his death, %resigna
ton, or inability to discharge the powers
and duties of the said Office, the sans
shall devolve on tho vice president; and
congress may by law proyide for the re
moval, death, resignation o. inability both
of the president and vicd president, de-
claring what officer shall then act as pres
ident, and such officer shall act accordingly
until the disability be removed or a presi
dent shall be elected"

In addition to the proclamation by
Governor Warren, and the hosting Of
flags at half mast in various parts of the
city, as a mark of respect to the memory
of the late Vice President Hendricks,
other tributes to his memory will be
shown. The district court will not be in
session to-day, the county commissioners
when they meet this morning will imme-
diately adjourn for the day, and the
county clerks offices will be closed except
for the transaction of the most urgent and
important business-should any arise
and other public offices in the city will
doubtless be closed also. In addition to
this many of our business houses will be
closed for a portion of the day. The

Judge Carey, delegate elect, left Chey-

his departure he was interviewed by a
LEADER reporter, to whom he kindly
stated his views on the Legislative question
He claimed that the question should nor
De made a political one, as it involved the
best interests of all the people of Wyo-
ming. The judge stated hat he should
try to get congress to l%eealize the cleo
ton of our present legislature at an early
day in December, by an act similar to the
one passed by congress for New Mexico
In 1878, where the same condition Of
affairs called for congressional legislation.
He considered it most important that the
Legislature should meet here next January.
as a number of matters of great weight
needed immediate attention, the principal
one being the construction of a railroad
from Cheyenne, which will be undertaken
by a syndicate of foreign capitalists, pro
vided they can get the necessary legisla-
ton this winter-not otherwise. Judge
Carey asserts also that the people are fully
and equitably represented in the legisla

ception Of Uinta county, which has more
than its proportion. The people of Crook

are, in Judge Carey's opinion, duly rep
resented. On the whole, he thinks, the
legislature chosen is as satisfactory to the
people as any that ever has been or will
be elected, and it should be fully author
lied by congress to proceed to legislate.
The foregoing embodies nearly all the
points made by Judge Carey in favor
of legalizing the present legislative body
II unsuccessful in his efforts for the legal
%ization of the legislature, our delegate
added, he would favor the measure pro-
posed by the territorial Democratic cen
trail committee, providing for the meeting
of the next legislature Immediately after
