HOW TO KILL THE cRlcKETs.
Two Good Ways of Disposing OF
Those "PlaRuey Critters"

Two Good Ways of DIsposing of
Those "Plaeuey Critters"
A certain saloon keeper on Com
MERGE street, like many other citizens,
is troubled with the plague of crick-
cts. These crickets were so confoun-
ded cheeky that they hoped upon
anybody and into everything. Now /,
they took sip Cf one mans mixed
drink, of another mans beer and some
times varied the programme by taking
bath in the liquors that were being
served. This frequently spoiled a
drink and the saloon keeper who was
doing all he could to stop the crickets'
escapade and failing, got mad and
raised his vexed spirit by a "big
swore." Just then an old man with
long gray beard, and who had the APP
pearance OF a German scientific sa-
want, came in and ordered his drink.
This he drank, and hearing the salol II
keeper using some strong language
about the crickets, said:
"Mein frient, why dond you ged rit
of does crickets?n
"Get rid of Them" echoed the saloon
keeper; "I'd like to do it, but L can
not.n
"Oh," said the German, "dot's all
der nonsense tings. Wy, mein frient,
I've have dot prescriptions dot geds
rit of dem ride away predy quick. You
seds EN- ub and 1 gives him to you. "
Done" gladly answered the saloon
keeper.
The drinks handed were taken and
the stranger handed the prescription
as follows:
ar Acid Carbol, con. z viii.
Arsena Alba, lbj
Alcohol, q.s.
to make half a gallon. A half tea
spoonfui to be administered every
half hour"
"That's all right" said the salts
fled saloon man, "but how shall l
apply it?"
"Dot's blain enufs." said the Ger
man, ''you goes schtill as mouses,
you catch der cricked, you takes him
gently in der hands, you schqueeze a
leedle, he opens his mouths and den
YOU gives him dot half deaspoonfuls
of der mixture, den you leds him goes
out to play wild der other cricketds,
and he comes back no more some
dimes.n
saloon keeper, "why 1 could catch
and kill them in half the time"
"Yah. yah!n' responded the Ger
man bounding out of the saloon,
"dot is der goot way, but you will
flint der mixture does der business"
Later advices show that the saloon
keeper has not got the mixture but is
killing crickets with brooms, hot
water, carbolic acid, etc., and thinks
he will continue in that way.

How to Get Rid of Them.

Mr.. Holland, of Commerce street,
uses borax to get rid of crickets and
he is not troubled in any way with
them. This is a cheap and effective
remedy. 1t is also one of the finest
personalities of moths, is not dan
gerous to humanity, and will not soil
or spoil ladies' dresses or harm fabrics
of the most delicate kind.

us it a fact" said a man to a tall and
slightly pompous stranger whom he met
on the train and who announced that he
was from Dakota; "is it a fact that mem
bers OF your Legislature who sit on the
back seats sometimes indulge in a game
of poker while in session."
"Yes, hat is frequently done. The
chairman of the judiciary committee also
often deals faro on his desk during a long.
winded debate"

would allow it2"

In responding to The Press" a toast
proposed at a recent banquet to signalize
the completion of the water works at
Rock Springs, Mr.. Norman B. Dresser,
editor of the Independent, called atten-
ton to the interesting fact that of the
twenty-five newspapers now published in
Wyoming, only seven were in existence
when the Independent came into being, a
little ovcr three years ago. 1t therefore
appears that the number of newspapers
published in Wyoming has increased by
over 300 per cent in three years. News
papers cannot be published without popu-
lation to back them and what better evil
dence can we have of the really remark
able increase in population than this?
Who will now venture to predict what the
next FIVE years may bring forth?
On the whole our territorial press ranks
high considering the disadvantages I'M
der which they are frequently published.
Too much cannot be said, as a rule, in
commentator of the weekly press of
this territory. Where in tho best settled
portions of the East. with cheaper labor,
better facilities and equal population, can
be found papers which will bear
comparison with them2 1t is not
simply that the number of papers pub
lished in the territory has increased, but
they have become briskcr ~editorially, the
treatment OF local matters shows fewer evil
dences of the hired mans finger marks
and there are none of them set up with
shinglc nails and printed with apple butter
as the late Daniel Manning used to say.
Editorially and mechanically they have
all greatly improved within the past year
or two.
The fact Of the matter is the weekly
press of the territory has never been APP
preciated as it deserves. 1t is doing a
grand work for the territory. but too fire.
q%uently, unfortunately, the publishers are
forced to be satisfied with unsubstantial
glory in lieu of some of the other good
things of life.

ASKS IT.

There is a very strong movement on
foot to secure the appointment of United
States Attorney A. G. Campbell to sue
coed Judge j. B. Blair as Judge of the
second judicial district at the expiration
OF that gentleman's term of office early
next spring. Wyoming is the only terri
tory in the Union in which no resident
has been appointed to the bench.
We do not believe an appointment could
be made which would be received with
more general satisfaction by the people
of the territory. The movement to secure
the appointment of Mr.. Campbell is as
general as it is spontaneous. We believe
it will be conscientiously endorsed by
every lawyer in the territory. Though a
young man Mr.. Campbell has been
a practicing lawyer for over a dozen
years. During all hat time he has been
a conscientious student OF legal literature,
and few men in his profession are better
grounded in the principles of law. To his
knowledge of the law he unites a judicia,
laIuSoo Vi tSihpSl uhiuBSaSiablO ih'SS
rity, n well balanced mind and a lively
disposition to do to the letter what he
conscicntiously believes to be his duty.
His appointment would be a graceful
concession to the people of Wyoming
regardless OF party, and it would reieci
honor upon the administration itself.
b Mr.. j. q. Baird, of this city, who's,
name has frequently been mentioned il
connection with this office by the territorial
press, is not a candidate for the position
but instead heartily endorses Mr.. Camp
bell.

occupation is had in the din of never
ceasing chimes; and still beyond these are
uplands which almost reach the dignity of
mountains, pom whose far and receding
serrated heights an occasional Cocoa tree
or royal palm looms lonely as a ghostly
sentinel upon some medieval tower.
Below and nearer, upon a little PENN
sula extending towards Havana into the
bay, is the gloomy Quarantine. Farther
to the south lie the great Santa Catalina
warehouses where the saccharine source of
Cuba's wealth is stored in huge hogs
heads. or rests dark as lakes of pitch in
tremendous watts. Behind these is Regla,
the lesser Havana, across the barbor, with
its churches, its quaint old markets, its
cock pits, its ceaseless ~fandangoes and its
bull pen. Over beyond this, set like a
cleaning nest in the crest of the noun
tains, a glimpse is caught of Guanabacoa,
full of villas, beautiful gardens and foun-
tains, and in the olden times the then
Oldest Indian village of which Cuban le-
gends tell. Beyond Regla to the south,
and Upon the shores of the bay, is the
ferry and railroad station, whence thou
sands reach the outlying villas, or leave
the capital for the various seaports of the
northern coast; and right here, night and
day, is as busy and interesting a spot for
the study of manner and character as may
be found in all Cuba. At this station is
seen a famous statue to Edouard Fesssr,
founder of the Havana warehouse system.
The entire southern portion of the bay,
where some day the barren shore line will
be lined with great warehouses and docks,
is filled with old bulls of sunken steamers
and ships, conveying the keenest sense of
desolation, and the shore here rises to up
lands bare as Sahara, until, skirting to the
right, the hold mountain, Jesu del Monte
is seen; and then come the great outlying
forts extending far around to the sea.
Between you and these, if still aboard
ship, you see Havana's domes and nina
rets, and, to all i%ntents, you are anchored
in a ~sceneful harbor of old Spain.

THE chief signal officer has designated
Cheyenne as one of the points to receive
Geographic warnings from the central Of
fee at Washington of approaching heavy
snow storms. Cheyenne has many things
to be thankful for, but this latest evidence
of esteem must fill our cup of joy to
OVERLOOKING. Hitherto we have accepted
with becoming resignation whatever
weather was vouchsafed us, but now un
der the all-seeing eye of the meteorological
branch of our beneicent government, we
may always know what a day may bring
forth and shape our course accordingly.
BY the way, the local signal Office will
look very well perched on the top of our
new $50, 900 public building and we can
assure Gen. Greedy that when this change
does take place it will be a very cold day
when we get left in ladlnG out weather to
the people of this great and growing
region.
Cheyenne bears her blushing honors

FLOATING GOSSIP.
His Habits Were Correct.

For ten years past" said the new
boarder, my habits have been regular as
clockwork. l rose on the stroke of 6;
half an hour later l sat down to break
fast; at I was at work, dined at IL, ate
supper at 6. and was in bed at $50, ate
only hearty food, and hadn't a sick day
in all that time"
Dear me-" said the deacon, in sym,
pathetic tones, what were you in for2"
And in the awful silence that followed
you could hear the hash CRATE his teeth.
