THE SUICIDE.
BY JESSIE A. COLE.

You scof at the suicide, call him weak
mind,
And you still say: "God and heaven are
kindp'
Blame not the suicide, but first discuss 4
Or argue his case as he argued it-thus:
THE SINGLE MAN.
"a dire melancholy wraps itself about my
breast,
My heart is Ieaden heavy, and long for rest.
Folk may call me weak and blame me.
But 1 can't help what they name me.
look, and clouds Of sorrow
See hovering o'er tomorrow;
Such realities I cannot bear,
But am brave enough to dare
To venture into the great Death-Caye,
And I'll enter-call me W eak or braver
THE HUSBAND AND FATHER.
"Im mentally tired, and physically much
worn;
Till late at night from the early moru
I'm mentally working and my physical
strength
Is completely exhausted to its fullest length
Plotting and thinking from the rise of sun,
What I shall do, what must be done
To bring up my family as I ought,
Feed, and teach them as they should be
taught.
Ny case as it is before God I've laid
So earnestly for some help have prayed,
But His mercy's reserved for a chosen few
So it seems the best thing can do,
Since trouble is mine past endurance,
Is to give my dear ones my life insurance.
I'm looked up to as the familys head
It's too hard to live when I can't earn theil
bread;
They have cut down wages and heaven
knows
They were already too small to buy meat anc
clothes.
1 can't work more hours than there are in 6
day,
And could I do so 1t would hardly pay,
| AS the laborers wages are unreasonably low
| So, the best can do is to hurriedIy go.
Some say 'twere well to patiently endure
What's beyond our power, what we can
cure;
But am too proud or sensitive by far
To be looked up to as the guiding star
And then be com PEELED to lead them to
A dreadful rut or danger Gus slough;
| And so l must take myself to the tomb,
And let them drift as they may through th
| gloom"

Governor Warren yesterday sent to the
council the name of Newell Boeman. OF
Evanston. as mining commissioner under
the new law. Mr.. Bccman was promptly
confirmed by the council. The new COM
missioner is a gentleman about 40 years of
age, with a small family, is the senior
member Of the firm of Beeman & Cashln,
of Evanston, and was for several years
superintendent of the Central Pacific coal
mines at Almy, Wyo., which position he
resigned in September last.
From the underground telephone line it
was ascertained also that the lame of
Hon. Leroy Grant, now a member of the
council from Albany county, was sent to
the council for confirmation as territorial
auditor, and that of w. p. Gannett lor
territorial treasurer. The former name
was not acted upon, the nomination being
laid over until to-day. The nomination
of Gannctt wa not confirmed by the
council and it is said the Laramie county
delegation in that body were opposed To
it, not, however, on personal grounds

A bill was introduced in, and passed by
the house of representatives last evening,
providing that in certain cases where an
attorney is charged with contempt Of
court, either of the district or supreme
court of the territory, he shall have the
right to be tried by a Jury, etc. The bill
also provides hat its provisions shall
extend to certain cases where attorneys
are now under a cloud on accoun of be-
ing suspended from practice for contempt
of court. To make a long story short,
whether so intended or not, it exactly fits
the case of a prominent lawyer of Laramie
City. 1t is extremely doubtful, however,
whether the legislature has the right TO
prescribe how the courts shall deal with
the question of contempt.

The house joint resolution and memo
rial, relating TO compensation of members
of the legislative assemblies of Wyoming
was received from the council again and
the amendment striking out all reference
to the ninth assembly was concurred in.
The members voting no were Messrs.
Downey, Keefe, Knight, Miller and
Summers.
The bill to provide a limitation for the
prosecution of offenders in criminal cases
was received again from the council, and,
upon motion of Mr.. O'Brien, who intro
duced it, was indefinitely postponed. The
council by striking out the clause making
the act apply to f%elonies had practically
amended the purpose of the measure.
The substitute for the bill providing for
the appointment Of a territorial steno-
grapher and the preservation of evidence,
which substitute the council had passed.
was rejected by the house and a confer
ence asked Tor, Messrs. Downey, Kelley
and Lobban being selected as the mem
bers of the committee.

Guernsey, Robins, Mitchell and Kerr.

use of opium had been so amended in the

qucsted to rcccdc from its amendments.
The Kline mining bill was placed be-
fore the house again, but appears to be
no nearer satisfactory to both branches
Of the Legislature han on the start. The
committee ON Judiciary again wrestled
with il and finally asked for a conference
! committee to be appointed.

THE MRNNERCHoR BALL.
A Brilliant Affair which Was Largel,
Attended.

The masquerade ball given by the
Mennerchor club at Library hall last even
ing was a very brilliant society event and
was largely attended. The hall was pre-
fusely and deliberately decorated and
adorned with flags, pictures and emblems.
The costumes of the dancers, of whom
there we're nearly $50 couples present,
were varied, some of them being gro
tesque and amusing, while others went to
the other extreme and were superb and
elegant. The music was exceedingly fine
and the dancing equal to the music, and in
all respects the ball was fully up to and
even more than what had been claimed
for it in. advance. In addition to the
music and dancing there were other exer-
cises of a quasi musical character that
were very fine and much appreciated by
the large %concourse of people in attend
apce. The following are the names Of
the various committees:
Committee of arrangments-Leopold

Hasty Reader.

Some new law books will be received at
the territorial library very soon.
There will be services at st. Marks
church to-day at II a. m. and 4 p. m.
Late yesterday afternoon the mud began
to materialize on the streets in unlimited
quantities.
To morrow and the mex day-after
which the ninth Legislative assembly will
have passed into history.
Paper wad throwing is very fashionable
in the house Of representatives, and the
mania will continue from this out.
March is now one third gone and yet
we have failed TO see any of that awful
weather. that has been predicted.
Still the weather continues favorable to
the cattle interests, and these light falls of
snow are having n beneficial effect.
A good many people got pretty near
snow blind early yesterday morning, but
no such difficulty existed late in the day.
There is quite a scramble in a quiet way
for some Of the positions which are yet to
be filled by the governor and legislative
council.
The women's department of the Gala
boose is being reconstructed, renovated
and repaired, and will soon be in excellent
condition.
The Eddy street maIksmen have a gun
club organization also, and it is probable
that a shooting match will be arranged
very soon.
In the process of time-June l-Wyo-
ming is to have a new civil code. making
three since the organization of the terri
tory in 1868.
There was much comment and specula-
ton on the streets yesterday over the
question of territorial officials, and who
they would be.
County Clerk Jeffrey is preparing the
poll books, ballot boxes, etc, and other
wise making preparation for holding the
special election on March &c.
1t is contended by some who have an
opportunity to know. hat there is much
discrepancy between large sized scales in
Cheyenne, especially hay scales.
The successful aspirants for positions
those who were nominated and confirmed
we're the recipients of many congratula-
tons from their friends yesterday.
Pigeons are getting so numerous in
some parts of the city that in one or two
instances special permits have been
granted the owners of property to shoot
them.
The Signal Service officer reports that
the highest temperature yesterday was
A. 10; lowest, $50; mean temperature,
% l; mean humidity, 63.7; highest We
locity of wind, 10 miles per hour; snow

tives and Teschemacher of the council

large number of bills were considered and

were made. The chief feature of the dis.
cussion was the territorial geologist bill.
AS originally drawn, the bill appropriated
$1,000 for two years. A substitute had
been introduced which cut the appropna-
ton down to $4,000. The members OF
the house who favored the original meas
urc caused that to be brought forward
first. Messrs. Downey and Kelley con
tended hat the mining interests of the
territory were. sufficiently valuable to Just
ify development, while Messrs. O'Brien
and Keeie opposed the bill upon the
ground hat there had never been a dollar
in taxes paid into the territorial treasury

substitute was adopted by the house by a
close vote of 10 to II, and thereupon the

ponement, which was unanimously grant
