HE Is MAD.
MIR. Chem Thinks lie VIII sue Some
body.

The eminent Mr.. John Gehm is very
mad indeed, and he don't care who knows
it. The gentleman alluded to is at pres
ant stopping in the interior department of
the court house, most commonly termed
the county jail. but as he has a position
in waiting for him at Joliet, he will de-
part for that place very soon, and as be is
not at all familiar with the roads, Sheriff
Sharpless will go along for the purpose of
showing him the way and will probably
pay all the expenses of the trip also.
The great difficulty which now agitates
the mind of Mr.. Gehm is a mere legal
problem. and he thinks he's got en-
on that point. He Was originally SEN
fenced to thirteen months in the Joliet
peuitentiary, but as Mr.. Gehm skipped
out one fine moonlight night, and didn't
return without much solicitation on the
part of the authorities here. the court set
aside the sentence, and when he was re-
sentenced, Judge Maginnis gave him
three years. Mr.. Gehm says he knows a
thing or two, and if he don't, he knows
of some people that do and he won't stand
this. He claims to have had good legal
advice, and he says he can and will sue
the presiding Judge for damages, Not
only that, but he isn't going to stay at
Joliet longer then thirteen months my
how, and he will SHOW EN- how it is
done.
Mr.. Gehm has a few things to learn
yet, and one of them is that the presiding
judge can revoke his own orders if he sees
fit to do so at the term of court at which
they were originally made, and can enter
other orders in their places if he elicts so

According to the Carbon County Jour
nal the colored porter who was shot and
killed near Rock Creek on Saturday was
a man named Mowry, who was formerly
a member of the 9th cavalry regiment.
The man who diG the shooting is named
Arnold, is about 35 years old and a farm,
er on his way from Ohio to Boise City,
Idaho. Arnold fired two shots at the
porter, either of which would prove fatal.
Parties who are knowing to the affair are
about equally divided in opinion, some
claiming hat it was a cold blooded muir
der, and others believing that Arnold is
insane.

Much Enjoyed.

The entertainment for the benefit of
the Cheyenne Guards, given in Keefe
hall last evening was keenly enjoyed by
everyone in attendance. The entertain
ment was opened with a vocal gem en-
titled, Danish, oh Maiden" rendered
by Messrs. Heath, Pasmore, Henderson
and Whitcomb with great skill and effect.
The same gentlemen subsequently sang
another song. The central figure of the
entertainment was Francis Lee Chauvan,
the elocutionist, who gave several recita.
tons with remarkable skill. His opening
sketch THE Old Sailors Story and the
Tell Tale Heart" are perhaps the most
cleverly rendered of his repertoire. The
singing by the Misses Rena and Anna
Atkinson was very enjoyable, particularly
the singing OF the latter young lady
which was altogether charming.
There will be an entire change of pro-
gramme this evening. The entertainment
merits liberal patronage.

The memorial adopted by the Cheyenne
board of trade regarding land patents and
the delay in issuing them was sent by tele-
graph to the Denver Republican by its

appeared in that paper in full on Sunday

here. This will greatly aid in the circula-
ton of the memorial and is gratifying to
our board of trade which desired to give
it as wide publicity as possible.

Invention of tho Honey Extractor.


A foreign paper notices the death at
Venice, Italy, of Maj. Won Hruschka, the
inventor of the honey extractor. He was
a retired Austrian officer, and the inven-
ton of the honey extractor occurred in
this way: His apiary was in Italy, and
one day when he was in his apiary his lit
tie boy came there. The boy had q small
tin pail tied to a string, which he was
swinging in a circle, holding the end of
the string in his hand. The indulgent
father gave the youth q small piece of
comb filed with honey, putting 1t into
the little pail. The boy after awhile be-
gan to swing the pail again as before,
with the honey in it. A few moments
after he became tired of that amusement
and put the pail down to talk to his
father, who took it up, and, by chance,
noticed that the honey had left the comb
and settled down into the pail, leaving
the comb perfectly clean that had been on
the outside of the circle when the boy
was swinging it around. The major won
dered at the circumstance, and turning
the comb over babe the boy swing 1t
again, when, to his great establishment,
the other side of the comb also became
perfectly clean, all the honey being ex-
tracted and lying at the bottom of the
pail.
During the following night Mai. Won
Hruschka, after going to bed, commenced
to think the circumstance over. On the
morrow he commenced a series of expert
ments which resulted in his giving to the
world the first honey extractor, which, by
whirling, something like his son whirled
that little tin pail, gave him the pure
liquid honey, extracted by centrifugal
force, leaving the honey comb entirely
free from the liquid sweet, which he gave
again to the bees to fill, allowing him the
pure honey for making wine. mead, and
metheglin or honey cakes, as desired,
without employing the troublesome and
primitive method in use up to that
time of MASKING up the combs containing
the honey, pollen, and sometimes brood,
too, to let the honey drain through the
cloth in which it was placed, giving what
was formerly known as strained honey"

1t would seem that when THE LEADER
calls attention to the fact that the Unequal
tiles of the weather and climate are mex
plicable, the difficulty is taken under con
sideration somewhere, and the matter set
to rights. Some days age THE LEADER
stated that there had been no rain up to
that time during the summer at and
around Fort Laramie, which was the fact.
The nextday, however, after THE LEADER
reached that place it commenced to rain,
and it has rained for the biggest part OF
the time since then. Some of the people
up there who don't like such unlimited
floods of water all in the same day say 1T
was all the fault of the Cheyenne

The natural premium plan Of the Kan
sas Mutual Life differs from that of level
or uniform premiums simply in the fact
that deposits for mere accumulation are
rendered unnecessary. 1t is insurance
pure-unmixed with any banking or
other investments. 1t is concise and prac-
tical-nothing cheaper that is safe; moth
ing higher hat is better. 1t pays every
dollar of its losses in full and promptly.
The large amount of new business is evi-
dence that the insuring public realize the
