a TRUE CITIZEN.
A Cheyenne Man Sees a healthy Den
yer Lie II Goes One Better,

A group of takers were discussing
Workmanship in the rotunda of the Inter
Oceon last evening. The occasion was
ar excellent one for an accomplished liar
to distinguish himself. The exploits of
pioneers in the field, sharpshooters in the
army and professionals in the gallery
were reviewed and exaggerated. A Den
yer delegate thought that his chances for
capturing the medal were very promising
as he smiled blandly during the silence
which ensued after his narration of the
accuracy attained by a Colorado hunter,
who bagged ducks on the wing and rab-
bits on the run with an old cavalry car
bine. THE beauty of it was" he said
earnestly, ''the shootist never rufled a
feather or turned a hair on his game. He
invariably decapitated the fowls and am
putated a foreleg of the bounding ami
NAL"
A Cheyenne man was equal to the
emergency, however. The gentleman is
recognized authority on sporting matters,
but seldom airs his knowledge, and only
under strong pressure will regale his COM
panion with one of his stock of choice
anecdotes. He felt that the Colombian
needed a rebuke and did not hesitate to
administer it. "Out at the rife range
last week." said he by way of introduce
DRY, our crack shot was testing a patent
magazine gun which had lust arrived from
New York. Determined to see just how
accurate tho irearm was, he had the
scorer place a peach at tie 800 yard tar
get"
"Oh, thunder, interposed the Denver
emigrant, ANYONE could hit a peach"
III concede that without argument"
continued the unabashed representative
of home talent, but that wasn't what
our man proposed to do. He raised the
rear sight, rested his gun and proceeded
to remove the fuzzy covering from that
peach with bullets from the new rifle
-
"Hold onl" said the excited Denver
man.
What's the NATTER" inquired the
story teller.
There's nothing the matter. You're
all right. The towns all right. The
people are all right. Denver is worsted.
Cheyenne wins the belt and I'll liquidate
the refreshment bill"

1T WILL BE A BEAUTY.
The Forthc oming Annual Report of the
Board OF Trade.

The first meeting of the newly elected
trustees Of the board of trode was held
last evening. Tho nine members were
present, with President Warren in the
chair.
The plumbago mine proposition from
G. f. Shelton, of Laramie, was referred
to the proper committee after being
briefly discussed. As stated a few morn
ings since, the gentleman desires to
form q stock company here for the pur-
pose of developing his graphite claim
near the Sabille.
The principle business of the evening
was reading and revision of copy which
has been prepared for the annual report.
This work will contain ~thirty-two pages of
choice reading matter, finely illustrated,
including a map showing the railways and
water courses of the territory, ~engravings
of public buildings, street views, a cut of
Fort Russell, aud a resume of the bust
ness of the city during the
past year, together with an accu-
rate write-up of the town, its
manufactures, institutions, advantages
and prospects, a statment of county and
city valuations and taxations. In short
the forthcoming pamphlet will include all
reliable data obtainable in regard to the
present condition of the city, its growth
during the past year, its wants and in
ducements offered to settlers.
The pictorial features of the report will
receive careful attention. Among the il
Illustrations win be engravings of the new
depot, capitol building, ranch views, Pho
neer Hook and Ladder house, the new
residence of e. Nagle and other palatial
dwelling houses.

Sweet Vengeance.

Two females who recently arrived from
Denver complained at police headquarters
yesterday that the husband of one of the
pair either accidentally mislaid or malic-
iously withheld the checks calling for
their trunks. The women were advised
to consult an attorney, but quickly hit upon
a more feasible and economical plan of
bringing the offender to terms. One of
the pair swOre to a complain in Judge
Lees court charging the man with carry
ing concealed weapons. A warrant for his
arrest was at once issued and a search of
the man developed that his wife was well
acquainted with the habits of her leige
lord as a revolver was found on his per-
son. The women have not yot secured
possession of their trunks, however.

Experiments with the Memory.

Starting with the word Washington,
write down one hundred words just as
they occur to you. Let your second
word be the one which Washington nat
urally suggests to you. Possibly it
will be capitol. 1t may be President.
Take the word which comes into your
mind. In the same manner let the
third word be suggested to you by the
second, the fourth by the third. and SO
on. Be careful that the third word is
not suggested by both the first and
second. Drop the first entirely, and
let your mind go from the second alone
to the third. Having written this list
of words, you will have furnished your
self with a cheap, but very useful mir
ror of your mind. If you are able to
use this mirror you may discover some
very serious defects in your mental
processes. You may discover that you
think along certain lines too frequent
". You may discover that you are
using superficial principles quite
too much to the neglect of more I'M
portant laws of mind. You will thus
be led to avoid certain linkings and to
encourage others of a more philosoph-
zeal nature. Wiibert ". White, tn CsGu.

SOLDIERS ON BICYCLES.
highlands Army May Be Mounted an
Ordered to Fight ON Them.

England's Army May Be Mounted and
Ordered to Fight on Them.
The bicycle force that has been Or
ganized in connection with the English
volunteers recently had it's second field
maneuvers. Rainy and disagreeable
weather embarrassed the troops on
each, but the result of the turn. ut has
been very satisfactory. On the recent
trials the men covered about one hun
dred miles in forty-eight hours, fight
ing, scouting, and camping by the way.
There were seventeen officers and sew
enty-seven men out, made up of repre-
sentatives of number of leading vol
unteer regiments. The force was
and the other following it. At fire.
quent intervals the retreating force
made stands at bridges and other eligi-
BILE points of defense, and the pursuers
were compelled to halt, dismount, send
out a skirmish line, and perform all
the other preliminaries of attack, as
though in active war. 1t was found
that two or three men left behind by
retreating body could make show of
force at bridge, greatly delaying the
advance of a pursuing force, and then
could mount and swiftly ride away
under cover of hedge and escape to
the main body. This ability to fight
and run away with greater facility
than the ordinary infantryman is one
of the chief points urged by the
bicyclers in favor of the new arm"
1t is said that scouting and reconnoiter-
ing parties mounted on bicycles could
do much more effective work, without
risk of capture, than men on foot. In
these maneuvers, although the retreat
ing TO rec numbered but three officers
and twelve men, they succeeded in de-
laying the pursuers so that it took them
three hours to cover distance easily
made in less than two when no obstacles
are interposed. Three of the retreat
ing force dallied too long at a bridge,
and were ridden down and captured by
detachment of the enemy. There
were no other losses. The chief diff
Guilty experienced was due to the num-
Der of parallel roads occasionally con-
verging that ran through the country
traversed. The retreating party had
to keep scouts constantly ahead pick
ing up the lay of the land and bring
ing in reports, to protect themselves
from the danger of being fianked on
some of these roads, and cut off entire
ly at converging point In coun-
try with one good main road and but
few side roads, the success Of bicycle
corps in obstructing the passage of an
enemy would be much greater. BIZ
cycles have not yet been introduced in
the British regular army. but if their
success among the British volunteers
continues it is expected that similar
corps will be organized in each regu-
lar regiment Telegraph.

HOME AND FARM.

Growing boy on a farm is a good
foundation preparation of him for any
honorable business.
Roast chicken may have as gar
nish rice croquettes and baked toma-
toes; peas and macaroni may be served
with it.
AS a rule those crops pay best that
require the most care and attention.
The brains and the labor are what sell
in the markets in the shape of the
crop.
Wheat bran should be part of the
morning meal of laying hens in the.
winter season; one-third corn meal,
two-thirds bran moistened with milk
makes good ration.
The COW will pay good dividends
on any cash investments necessary to
provide daily ration of bran if she is
depended upon for good quantity of
milk
Fine manure may be spread on the
pasture, in order to promote the
growth of grass next spring. It will
also serve as a protection to the roots
and enable the plants to start off early.
The farmer is more tempted to
run in debt than almost any other
man, because dealers are so willing to
trust him. His farm is good basis
for security, and it is property which
can not be hidden or carried away.
"A fowl should be quick in picking
up food, for when one is slow in feed
ing, occasionally taking grain and
then moping about, something is
wrong. One can soon become expert
in detecting other symptoms of disease
as ruf1ed plumage, lusterless eyes, pale
comb and wattles, droppings sulphure-
GUS, green or waterY.
in the early settlement of the
country hogs ran wild in the woods,
and got good deal of their living in
summer from ground roots, and to-
wards fall fattened on the nuts from
the beech, oak, and other trees This
was called '.mastn It made a sweet
but not very solid pork unless the hog
was given a final ration of corn five or
six weeks before killing. The beech

fattening.
Lawn grass is often injured in
stead of benefited by being covered
with coarse stable manure. If the
ground is poor, and especially if the
raw clay becomes compacted surface
among the grass blades. the necessary
humus is lacking and an application
of fine compost or any vegetable mat
ter reduced like leaf-mold will help
to give the proper surface, open to the
air and unpacked by rains, which the
grass needs, and which the decay of
it's own blades gradually supplies in
the course of perhaps twenty years.
Even if the ground is rich, close cut
ting constantly practised may prevent
the roots from becoming strong
enough to push up good blades. At
least once a year, the lawn grass
should be allowed to grow long for
the purpose of securing correspondents
strength of the roots.

Aunt Chloe Tells Her Sisters How to Pre-
pare Four Toothsome Varieties.
Potato Cakes: Put two pounds of
naming from the previous day will an
swer the purpose quite as well as fresh
cooked ones-and beat them to a per-
fectly smooth mass; add two ounces of
warmed butter, a teaspoonful of salt, a
good seasoning of pepper, two table
spoonfuls of finely-chopped onions, one
of minced parsley, and two well-beaten
eggs. Mix the ingredients thorough
y. and form the preparation into
small, round cakes. about three-quar-
tiers of an inch thick. Brush these
slightly over with beaten egg, sprinkle
them thickly with finely-grated cheese,
and fry in plenty of boiling fat until
sufficiently Drowned. Drain carefully
from the fat, and serve crisp and dry,
tastefmly-arranged on a napkin.
Savory Rice Cakes: Boil breakfast
cupful of the finest rice in plenty of
milk or white stock. When the liquid
is absorbed, and the rice swollen out to
the full, turn it out into a basin and
add to it an ounce of butter, two we'll
beaten eggs, one tablespoonful of
finely-minced boiled onion, and two
tablespoonfuls of grated cheese-a
piece which has become too hard and
dry for serving plain will do very
nicely for this purpose. Mix these
we'll, and season rather highly with
salt and pepper, then allow the mixture
to get quite cold. Thus far the dish
can be prepared the previous night.
Cut the rice next morning into small
square cakes about three inches each
way, and three-quarters of an inch in
thickness. Egg and bread-crumb in
the usual m amer, fry them in boiling
fat, drain carefully, and serve very
hot.
Fried Bread Cakes: These are ex-
tremely simple, yet those who have
never tried them have no idea how ex-
ceedingly nice they are, and certainly
they form dainty within the reach of
most of us. Cut slices of bread, half
an inch thick, from stale loaf; soak
these for half an hour in milk, then
sprinkle them thickly with mixture
of minced onion, herb powder, pepper,
salt and chopped parsley. Press this
firmly into the cakes on both sides,
and fry them in boiling fat. Serve
them as hot as possible. on hot dish
covered with napkin, and garnished
with parsley. If the bread can conven-
iently be soaked in good white stock.
it renders the cakes still more dainty.
Plain Savory Pancakes: Put six ta-
olespoonfuls of flour into basin with
teaspoonful of salt; form this into a
batter of the proper consistency-a lit
tie thicker than really good cream
with three large fresh eggs, well
beaten, and little milk. Beat the
mixture briskly with a wooden spoon
until every tiny knot is bruised out;
then stir in a tablespoonful of minced
onion, a teaspoonful of herb powder,
and good dust of pepper. Let the
batter stand few hours-over night,
weather permitting then fry a small
teacupful at time m boiling lard. As
the pancakes are finished roll them up
bolster fashion, sprinkle pepper and
salt over, and serve as quickly after
being cooked as possible. - Country

FOR SECRET WORK.

A Typewriter That Is Intended for Very
Private Correspondence.
"a great improvement has been
made in type-writers within the past
few years.
A dealer in these articles was ex-
planning their mechanism to a reporter.
Even now they have been so far
perfected that an expert writer can
turn out copy much faster than by US
ing a pen. A new departure, however.
has been made. An Englishman has
invented an ingenious method of pro-
ducing a cipher or secret communica-
ton by mechanical means. 1t is adapt
ed for use on tpye-writers or similar
writing machines where the type or
corresponding index scale, dial or
pointer is capable of being moved or
adjusted. The type-writing machines
to be used for the purpose are made
duplicate, so that the two in
index scales correspond with
each other in the arrangement
of their characters, but differ from any
other pair of machines. Since the
index scale is adjustable it may be
shifted In Two corresponding machines
SO that one or more of the characters
is moved out of its normal position,
and, in consequence, when the operator
strikes a certain letter on the key
board another totally different will be
printed. Thus he can continue and
write out an entire letter, which, to
the uninitiated, will seem like nothing
more than confused tumble of char
acters. To deeper whatever has been
written it is only necessary for the in
dividual who has the clew to shift the
index scale in the opposite direction
from that used by the original opera
tor, and then, by striking on the key
board the characters of the secret
communication, the correct message
will be printed. "-Boston Transcript.
