Count Munster, lately German am
bassador in London, onc at a Bucking-
ham palace reception engaged in an un-
dertone conversation with another diplo-
matte officer, when up came a super
serviceable court f~unctionary, slapped
him smartly on the shoulder and in
formed him that people We're not sup
posed to come to the palace to talk.
The ambassador pulverized the official
with a naughty Bismarckian stare and
replied; Il did not come here, sir, to
receive lessons in Manners" and he at
once summoned his attache, quilted tho
throne-room in high dudgeon and drove
direct to the foreign office, where he
lodged a formal complaint against the
court functionary for insulting imperti-
nence, and announced that unless he re
ceived a full and ample apology he
would lay the matter before his govern
ment. The case was laid before tho
queen, who ordered hat a proper letter
should be written TO the count by the
fussy court official, which was done at
once.-Chicago Herald.

John II. Durbin returned to the city
yesterday from his ranch on the Sweet
water. Mr.. Durbin gives a good account
of range cattle in that portion of the ter
ritoiy. At Rawlins Mr.. d. met a party
OF surveyors in the employ of the Gem
trail Pacifc railroad. They have %instruc-
tons to begin at oncc a survey, starting
from Independence rock on the Sweet
water, and going west a distance of 200
mile, which will make connections with
Ogden.
The sheep of Wyoming are in a thriv-
ing condition, aud the range is SO excellent
that 50 far sheepmen have not been
Obliged to feed them hayl
Owing to the scarcity of snow in many
parts of Wyoming, cattlemen have hired
cowboys to follow the streams and cut the
Ice SO that the cattle can get water.
John Newman. of Bear springs, is in
the city, Mr.. Newman is feeding on his
ranch seventy five head of stock cattle.
Still the reports from the ranges arc to
the effect hat cattle are wintering much
better than ever before.
The present winter in the Sweetwater
country is the finest that region has been
visited with for eighteen years.

In excavating for the that has
been put in under the jail the ground was
necessarily very badly torn up and dis
placed and to such an extent that in some
places the cement floor was left without
much support On Wednesday Of this
week the flooring and the ground under
meath a large space gave way and went
down into the sewer ditch, leaving an ugly
gap which extended nearly to the main
wall on the west side of the Jail. 1t is
fortunate that Schnakenberg and his pals
had gone, for if they had still been in jail
there is little doubt but that they would
have made a most desperate strike for
their liberty. The work of repairing the
breach is now in progress and will soon be
completed.

Yesterday afternoon a man named Hill
came into the city from the north in a
very unfortunate condition. He had come
on foot for some distance and says that he
got lost in a storm some days ago and
came near freezing to death. His ears,
cheeks and both feet were badly frozen.
When he arrived in the city yesterday he
was in a destitute condition, and was ad-
vised TO apply to the county commission
ems for assistance. He either did not find
any of them, or, if so, did not perhaps
make his case known to them, for early
last evening the unfortunate man came to
the city hall and asked permission Of City
Marshal Schnitgerto pass the night in the
calaboose, where he at least would be
sheltered from the inclemency of the
weather.

Ills moral WORTH,

In the female department Of the Gala
boose only a night or two ago was a very
hard specimen of damsel who belongs To
some boarding house in the western
portion of the city. In the other depart
ment was a man who was equally as bad
~ dcmoralizcd, and by means of the graf
ed window between the two departments
Of the calaboose they were enabled to
converse with each other. He stated that
he was afraid he had become considerably
demoralized, but she did not agree with
him, and TO assure him upon this point,
exclaimed, mo, George, you are mistak-
en-. | assure you that | have always
placed u high estimate on your character
and moral worth" This assurance com
ing from such a reliable source, appeared
to satisfy George upon this point, for he
said no more.

n. j. O'Brien is suffering from a sore
jaw, but says that while he is unfortunate
it is a good thing for the house of repre-
sentatives.
The question of newspapers and reading
matter generally is now what the mem
bers Of the legislature are considering in
their minds.
The fires in the hall of the house of rep
resentatives aud council chamber are to be
kept up during the interval between this
and Monday afternoon
The enrolling and engrossing clerks of
the legislature and their assistants are not
having much to do as yet. and will prob
ably not have until the session has far adj
vanced.
The strong minded woman who wants
TO reform the world has not as yet ma
terialized at this session of the legislature,
but she will make her appearance before
the sixty DAYS expire.
Some OF the members Of the council of
Laramie City have written to Cheyenne
for a copy of our city ordinances, and de-
sire especially to ascertain the provisions
OF our ordinances regarding sewers.
Some Of the members of the legislature
complain n good deal over the recent
order that there shall be no smoking in
the hall of the house of representatives
at any time, whether the house be in ses-
sion or not.
Some of the members of the council
appear to be in favor of making the 81 900
appropriation for the relief of the Almy
people, and Others are Of the opinion
that to send to them a mere resolution of
coincidence would be in very bad taste.
In the council the committee to whom
was referred the house Joint resolution
expressive OF coincidence to the Almy suf-
i%erers, will probably smother it in its in
fancy, and report a substitute TO the coun-
ell which will be substantially the same as
the resolution was when first presented in
the house.
According TO the prospects as they at
present appear. there will be one or more
important bills introduced in the present
legislature in regard to stock and stock
interests, but whether there will be any
such strife and officially such as occurred
over the maverick bill two years ago,
remains 10 be seen.
Many members of the house were more
or less exercised yesterday over the prop
osition to give the Joint committe on the
revision Of the laws authority to employ a
clerk who shall be learned in the law. "

It appears that there are still some
Christians in the Russian empire who
retain one Enthusiastically pagan GUS
tom of their charlottesville sacrifice of
beasts as a part of public worship. Not
long ago The st. Petersburger Zeitung
stated hat this practice was in use on
certain occasions at Wyborg, in northern
Finland, among the Karetes, who are
devoted adherents to the Orthodox
church. The Sviet now states that the
same ritual survives among the Orthodox
islanders of Mantschinschari, about
twenty-five versts from the monastery
of Walaam, where there is a chapel
dedicated to the Prophet Elias. Several
times every year three oxen, and some
times more, are brought by Christian
pilgrims to the chapel, in front Of which
they are solemnly slaughtered amid the
ringing of bells. The dead beasts, how
ever, are not now burned, as they
formerly were, but are boiled, and the
pilgrims, together with the villagers,
make a hearty dinner out Of the sacred
nesh.-Pall Mall Gazette.

DECORATIVE NEepLewoRK.


Condition of the Art In 1sb1-Improvcd
Taste-some Criticisms.
The revival of embroidery was the
natural outcome Of the general revival
of decorative art ~ which the great ex-
Inhibition of 1851 gave such an important
impulse. At no time in the history OF
English art had decorative needlework
reached such n state of absolute debase-
ment as in the first half of present
century, nor was it alone in that UNI
enviable position. IL tx both interesting
and humiliating 10 look back at the
illustrated catalogue OF the great exhi-
bition, and gain an idea from what was
then thought worthy Of engraving, of
the condition of the art of the day.
Decorative needlework, however, had
ceased to be an art mt all, for ecclesiasti-
cal purposes it still fingered on, but
secular embroidery had sunk into the
abomination of desolation known az
Berlin wool work.
A better state of things no doubt ex-
lists now; but while it is well 10 measure
our progress by looking back and noting
how short "A time has elapsed since the
decline of the decorative arts had
reached what we may hope was its low
est ebb, it is painful to think how much
OF this improved taste is mere fashion
the reproduction of good models rather
than a real renaissance of art, on which
any reliance can be placed. The very
rebound carried us into a phase of low
toned m~onotony which was certainly less
aggressive, but scarcely in itself more rea-
sonable han the snowy and ~pretentious
style which preceded it, because it was
n craze rather than the result of any per-
ception of r art principles.
Hence we had forms Of construction
which were passed as artistic by the
would-be %cultivators of the beautiful,
mere reproductions of past era which
had come into fashion again, but which
were not beautiful in themselves; and
in coloring it only needed to be dingy
enough to be admired, There was, if
possible, greater absence of any
thought out harmony of color than in
the old Philistine days, when people did
at any rate guide themselves by com
plementaries, even if Of n most crude
and primitive kind. The result was, as
we have said, generally less aggressive,
but in a true sense, often not more ar
tistic.-Art Journal.

A riot on a small scale occurred at a sa-
loon at the west end yesterday in which
two colored men and a beer glass were en-
gagged. William Gustavus jenkins, a col

standing with another gentleman of color
named Bristol Augustus Smith, and dur
ing the controversy that followed Il beer

There is almost NJ limit TO the physi-

which is done for the purpose Of exer-

in which TO walk, and one can find con-

at such times, for with him the walk

Monday was the hundred and twelfth
day MIR. Thurston asked of the Min
lster OF Interior a statement of the cost
per head, to the Government and to the
planters, of the immigrants brought into
the country during the last biennial
period. The remainder of the day was
almost wholly taken up with the third
reading of the Appropriation Bin by
sections. The item for His Maiesty's
Privy Purse and Royal State was passed
at $50, 900, over an amendment to pass
1t at $40, 900, as in the revised estimates
submitted by the late Government. Mr..
Gibson voted for the reduction, the
other Ministers against it. Other sala.
ries and expenses we're increased as
follows, Mr.. Kaulukou being almost
invariably the mover in each case: For
the Queen, $4,000 instead of SIC, 900;
for Princess Kaiulani, So 900 instead Of
$50 for household expenses of the
Palace, $35,coo instead of $40, 900; the
Governors all raised to Sd, 900 from diff.
ferent amounts; foreign embassies, from
$4,000 to $4,000; education of Ha-
waiian youths abroad, $4,000 to $780,
900. Messrs. Dole and Brown tried to
have a condition inserted In the last
item, that the youths should be selected
by competitive examination, but they
were promptly suppressed by the ma
jority. Mr.. Kaulukou moved to insert
$Ioo,o 900 for yacht for the King, but
Mr. Gibson, who favored having a rev
enue cutter that could be loaned to His
Majesty on occasions, induced the
leader of the house to withdraw the
item for the present.
