In answer TO number Of inquiries as
to the salary paid school teachers in this
county from teachers in the East, who
are receiving from twenty TO forty dollars
per month, we will say that the teachars
of this county are all well paid for their
services, receiving seventy-fve dollars
per month, or a little more than three
dollars per day Of six hours. The teach
ers Of our schools are all Grst-class and
the liberal salary is willingly paid them.
There are no male teachers employed,
As the supply of teachers exceeds the
demand, it is probable that the salary
will be reduced next year.

pany, on the Ist instant, notified all it's

meeting was held by the train dispatchers,
agents and operators, and notice was
given Division Superintendent A. M.
Beal, of this division, that unless wages
were restored by five O'Clock that day,
they would quit the service OF the COM

Another Lease.

The st. Clair habeas corpus case was
heard before Judge Maginnis yesterday,
and resulted rather enthusiastically. The
evidence adduced in JUSTICES court was
read and reviewed, and the defendant
sworn. AS a matter of course the lad
disclaimed all knowledge OF the robbery
of the Newman residence, and his attor-
ney argued that at all events the property
in question was not in actual possession
Of his client at the time of the arrest.
The articles were found in an express
package sent from Laramie, and no evil
dence was introduced positively establish
ing the allegation that the boy at any time
had possession of the jewelry.
The hearing was continued until Satur
day to afford the prosecution an opportu-
nifty to procure further evidence.

Edward aud Joseph Moon, alleged cat
tie thieves, were arraigned before Judge
Lee Yesterday. The specific charge
against the prisoners was the larceny of a
steer from j. M. Carey & Bro. Several
witnesses testified to immaterial facts in
connection with the alleged theft, and the
prosecution rested. His honor deemed
the evidence insufficient to order a COM
mitment of the defendants, and both were
released.
Immediately after the discharge of the
brothers, complaint was made against and
a warrant issued for Edward Moon. The
second charge was an allegation to the eff
feet that the alleged culprit had unlaw-
fully slaughtered a neat animal bearing
the Keeline brand. The prisoner was at
once brought before a justice and his bond
fixed at $3.50, conditioned on his appear
ance Saturday. Surety was Isoon forth
coming and Mr.. Moon released lfrom Gus,

Since Mrs. Potter's debut in New
York, several weeks ago her tour has
proved a fiattering success. Unbounded
enthusiasm has greeted her appearance in
the various cities she has visited, and if
the receptions she has met with are to be
taken as a criterion of success, the fair
idol of New York society should be con
sidered as pre- eminently successful.
Mrs. Potter is decidedly handsome.
Many aver that her beauty, while scarcely
Of the same type as that of the Jersey
Lilly, is a much closer approach to the
ideal. She dresses divinely, poses mag
nificently and reads well. She is to-day
the most famous OF American women for
many reasons. Not the least OF these is
her artistic acting, for the society leader
is now recognized as an actress of consid-
cradle ability. In Loyal Lore, tie play
underlined for Monday night, Mrs. Potter
assumes her ~favorite role.

Alex Baumgarten. an eccentric individ-
ual whose indiscretions have several times
attracted, or rather demanded the atten-
ton of the police, is now a guest at the
county jail. His latest freak was the lar
cenY OF $40 from the vest of a fellow EN-
ploye at the electric light house. The
garment was suspended in a closet when
the depreciation was committed. No one
witnessed the theft, but suspicion fell
upon the foreigner on account of previous
exploits of a similar character. When
first Incarcerated, B~aumgarten stoutly
protested his innocence, but subsequently
confded IN the gentleman sustaining the
loss that. while in a mood of u~ncontrolla-
BILE covetousness, he had appropriated the
ducats.
Baumgarten yesterday waived the priv
ilege of a preliminary hearing, and was
taken to the county Jail in default Of $500
surety.

A JUDGE e.
The House Committee willing to Ac-
commodate wyoming.

A Washington special to the Denver
Republican says that the house committee
on the territories recommends that the
Supreme Court Of Wyoming shall consist
of a chief Justice and three associate jus
tees, an increase of one. The measure
also precludes any Judge from acting as a
member of the supreme court in any action
or proceeding brought to such court by
writ of error. appeal, etc, from the court
in which said Judge acted.
The evil in this respect which this
measure cures in the territory has caused
very great dissatisfaction. The three
judges must act in each case in the SUI
preme court in order that there may
always be a majority for the decision Of
the case and the PRONUNCIATION of opinions.
This requires the Judge of the district
court to sit in judgment on and review his
own decision. This, the committee deem
is unfair to the judge, and creates in 9th
ers a suspicion as to the justice of decis-
ions in appeal cases.
In Wyoming each district is nearly as
large as the state of Indiana, and the APP
pointment of an additional Judge will re-
duce the expenses involved in litigation to
lawyers, witnesses and all concerned.

The Maverick sale by the Live stock
Board Yesterday.

Representatives Of nearly every one of
the ~thirty-scven roundup districts in the
territory assembled at the capitol building
yesterday to take part in the maverick sale.
The exercises were conducted by the live
stock commission, Secretary Glover act
ing as the auctioneer.
The sale was devoid of exciting occur
FENCES. The delegates present purchased
the mavericks in their districts for $40
each. While the establishment of a
uniform price was quite a surprise to
many, the liberal course followed by the
bidders is most gratifying to the cattle.
men. If the maverick crop approaches
the number which it should, yester-
days sale will result in ultimately placing
quite a respectable fund at the dis
posal of the commissioners, and the pro-
cecds could not be diverted in a better
channel under the existing condition Of
affairs, Several months will elapse be-
fore any cash is realized from yesterdays
transaction. and just what the commission
will do for money in the meantime is
rather q dubious problem.
The sale yesterday was a very formal
affair. In every case a contract was en-
tered into and a 81, 200 bond signed. The
mavericks in a few districts were not pur-
chased, but will doubtless be sold ere the
board %adjourns.
The live stock commission will meet at
the office Of the Swan Land and Cattle
company this morning and finish the bus
mess of the first session.

Almost Total Destruction of james

The Central avenue residence of James
Jones, the expressman, was Quilted by fire
about 3 o'clock this morning. The house
hold furniture was destroyed by the flames
and the property rendered almost totally
valueless.
The fire was caused by the explosion
of a lamp, which Mr.. Jones dropped to
the floor. The gentleman, who has been
ailing for some time, was descending the
stairway, and, being attacked by a faint
ing fit, tell to the foot OF the fight. When
he recovered consciousness the room was

Tiny Pipes for Women.

The question, do nice womon smoker
brings up a very pretty implement with
which they may smoke il they 81 choose.
The latest novelty exhibited in a Broad
way jewelry store is a tiny pipe that
only q woman could carry TO her lips.
Its stem is a trifie shorter and smaller in
diameter than the average meerschaum
and is made of gold set with garnets,
moonstones and cmeralds. The mouth
piece is of yellow and pink yeined onyx,
and the bowl, which might hold half a
thimbleful, is heavily set with small
gems. The toy is worth something like
800, and ut a gilt edged fine affair when
cigars are brought in with the coffee, if
a lady chooses TO remain at the close of
dinner, it may make a prettier combina-
ton than beauty and the cigarette.
The jeweler says that the first pipe of
this sort was made TO oSler for a woman
of some social position, and that he has
had four or five calls for them since. The
talk of ladies smoking is much exacge-
rated, however. There are numbers Of
Cubans and Spaniards and some Freach
women Of beauty and position who buy
cigarettes ii person, smoke them at din
ners and offer them 10 lady friends in
their boudoirs. But they are only i'm
porting a foreign custom, which does not
strike any s!rorS root here.-New York
Mail and Express.
