A New York commission house writes
THE LEADER that while the total con
sumption of the fleece of the Angora goat
was less last year than in 1856, yet the con-
sumption of the domestic product shows an
increase of more than l0O,O 600 pounds.
FIX Governor Warren is the owner of
large locks of Angora goats, and there
are several other Mohair growers in the
territory. The animals are hardy and
thrive in this region. The official state
ment that the consumption of the home
product Is on the increase should give an
impetus to the industry,

Conductor VIII Murray OF the Union
Pacific narrowly escaped being converted
into tieshy pulp Sunday afternoon. He
was standing on a fiat car giving signals to
his engineer when a sudden jolt threw him
to the ground in the track Of a steam
shovel operating near Sherman. He was
dragged several feet and it is a wonder
every bone IN his body was not broken.
His ankle was severely ~Iwrenched, body
slightly bruised and clothes torn. He
will be out again in a week or 80.
Mr.. Murray is a member of the Red
Stocking ball club and his absence on the
Fourth will somewhat cripple the nine.

Fast Time.

The overland fruit traffic is now quite a
factor in Union Pacific business. -Four
long trains composed of cars heavily
loaded with California fruits have left
Ogden since yesterday morning, and are
being brought over the road with all pos
sible speed. Already fruit trains have
been hauled from Ogden to this city, a
distance OF SIC miles, in eighteen hours,
and the average time is twenty hours.
From Cheyenne to Omaha the time is
much better, as the roadbed and grades
are better adapted to the making of rapid
runs. The Union Pacific always has been
a good fast freight line, and now has bet
ter facilities than ever for this purpose.
On the Wyoming division some remarka-
BILE runs have been made.

Lively Afternoon.

The recently organized Cheyenne ball
club defeated the kids" by a score Of "a
to IA last Sunday. The juveniles were
not satisfied with the result of the game,
claiming that several of their best players
were absent. They challenged the Chey-
ennes for another game, and the contest
will occur next Sunday.
During the game a man named Buck
hart was knocked senseless by blow with
a ball on the temple. He did not recover
for half an hour, and Joe Lynott, who
made the throw, was pretty badly fright
ened.
One OF the youngsters threatened to
brain the umpire with a bat, and was
slapped by a third party.
On another occasion a base runner
stoutly maintained that the umpire was a
dirty liar, and for a time bloodshed was
imminent.
A heavyweight who played with the
Cheyennes introduced the rough and
tumble feature of colliding with one of
the diminuative basemen when running at
the top of his speed.
The young darkey who assisted the
juvenile team. kept the small crowd in a
constant roar by his comicalities. The
boy is attached to racing stables, and it is
needless to say that he is worldwise far
beyond his years.

A LEGEND.

A lovely woman In an eastern Land
Once swayed a kingdom with her slender hand:
Her burdens heavy grew and weighed her down.
Upon her brow there pressed a Jeweled crown
Too cumbersome for its tender resting place,
The golden weight adorned s weary face;
She cried: ~ have grown tired OF my power,
It seemeth more unbearable each hour.
let some one come that 1 may crown him king;
Within his hand he must a guerdon bring
That shall by far my boundless wealth exceed
so, having II, I'll feel no other need"
Her wish WAS known, and loI from far and near
There tfGipged around her poet, prince and peer,
With o6SHngs OF dazzling beauty wrought
In wondrous shapes and with deep meanings
rraught
They laid their gifts down humbly at her feet
She sighed: "Alasi | find them Incomplete.
Within these sparkling stones no solace lies;
| dream of wealth revealed In human eyes"
Morn after morn a suppliant went away
Until there came unto her throne one day
A man with empty hands, yet noble face
And form of mRtchless mold and peerless grace
The queen looked up and asked: what gift hast
thou
To tender for the crown upon my brown"
He gazed within her eyes and naught replied.
She crowned him, saying; II am satisfied"

steeds Renowned in history.

Beside the mythical horses there were
real steeds that are renowned in history.
A~lexander's charger, Bucephalus, is
known to every school boy. He re-
ceived after death the honor of a mauso-
Ieum, and the city of Bucephala was
named after him. Celer, the horse of
the Emperor Verus, was also honored
with a mausoleum in the Vatican after
his death, and while living was fed upon
almonds and ~raisins, clothed with royal
purple, and stabbed in the palace. The
horse of Caligula, I~nc!tatus, was still
more highly honored while living. He
was made priest and counselor, ate from
an ivory manger, and drank wine from
a golden pail.-F. 8. Bassett In Globe

Allen Land Law.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Son motion of
Stewart the Senate bill to authorize the
sale to aliens of certain mineral lands
was taken up. The bill amends the
alien land act of the 3rd of March, 1887.
by providing that said act shall not re-
late to, or affect title to, mineral lands or
mining claims in the Territories. Stew
art explained and advocated the bill
which, he said, would be entirely salts
factory. He said more money was spent,
probably, in developing mines that was
taken out of them. 1t made no difference
to miners or to mining communities
whether the capital employed was
fereign or native. The object of the bill
was to restore the law as it had stood
for the last thirty years in regard to
mineral lands. Mitchell spoke in favor
of the bill and had read communica
tion in support of it from the delegate OF
the Territory of Montana. Mitchell
added that the bill had the recommend,
alton of the governors of all the Terri
tories, with one exception. He offered
an amendment providing that nc
Chinese persons and no company or cor
poration in which any Chinese person.
were interested shall ever be permitted
to hold or own any mining claim or rea
estate in any of Territories. After som,
discussion the bill was laid aside.
