A Quality Necessary to sucrcss In Impor-

II Is the humility Of patience which exer-

silent endurance from process OF ex-
haustion-a mere waste Of strength-inio
a power that feeds US with new life and
impresses on us new character. Where Is
there great national career that has not
been built upon the qualities which are es-
sential 10 patiencei Perhaps the French
have evinced less capacity for patience
than any other equally great people; but
consider the marvellous root Of patience In
tho Norman, the Breton, the Alsatian ele-
ments OF the French characters; and II
Paris has represented central impatience,
has not Paris ruined almost as often as
she has delighted Francei In all the
other great nations OF the world the raw
materials OF patience are the most notable
characteristics OF tho national character.
For example, among the Jews, the Ro-
mans, the English, the Germans, the
Slavs, we say the raw material Of patience,
for the higher kind OF patience Is far too
lofty AZ well as lowly virtue 70 be widely

A Big OIL Strike.

The Northwestern Oil and Coal com
pany, says the Omaha World, has just
struck a hundred barrel well of oil in Wyo.
ming The company was quietly formed
two years ago and stocked for $40, 900, 900.
1t bought o 1000 acres of land in Carbon
county. Wyoming. on the Rattlesnake
range.
The well which Yields so handsomely is
1000 feet deep. 1t was begun last sum
mer, was suspended in the winter, and
resumed this summer. In speaking OF
the strike Major Buchanan said that the
owners ofthe well had no idea of building
a pipe line or making a business of ship
ping oil. They proposed first to use the
oil for fuel in developing the OF
the territory, particularly in smelling.
where it was thought the coal would not
suffice.

Wit, corroborated by the afidavits of dis
interested witnesses, setting forth the fo.-
lowing facts, viz:
l. The character and date of entry,
date of establishing residence upon the
land, and what Improvements have been
made thereon by the applicant.
2. How much of the land has been
cultivated by the applicant and for what

leave of absence is asked.
The foregoing is not to be understood as
imposing restrictions upon settlers over

investments in the territory. In this
event Starr & Rittenhouse will establish
a branch Office at Cheyenne. The gentle

THE GREATEST AMERICAN.
''Mr. Barnes, of New York; to be
Here Monday.


The above attraction is playing to the
largest houses of the season in Denver,
where they have struck the chord of pop-
ular favor. Their trip from New York
has been a veritable triumphal march. At
Chicago. Columbia theater, their business
equslled hat of Little Lord Fonteroy.
In Kansas City the house was crowded
for one week at Coates. The Kansas City
Times commented as follows upon their
appearance in that city:
Few literary efforts have achieved more
instantaneous success with the public than
Mr.. Barnes, Of Nel1 York. IL is simple
justice to say that the dramatization of
of the novel as presented at the Coates
opera house last evening thoroughly merits
the same popularity.
One great trouble with most plays
wherein the American abroad is a central
figure is that the character is overdrawn.
MIR. billiard maintains the American
characteristics without for an instant for
getting that the same American is always
a gentleman.
Miss Rigl, whose work in The Galley
SIdUe gained her public favor, has found
a part in the production of last evening
that gives her an opportunity to display
her talents as she has not done before.
She is at her best as Marina Paoli, and
claims the hearty approval of her auditors.

THE HORSE COUNTRY.
The South Looking to Wyoming for
Horses.
Admirable Foresight of Shrewd
Growers.
interviews With Both Buyers and
Sellers.

Hon. A. H.. Reel has Just refused a top
price for a band of fine y%earling horses.
He purposes sending the animals to his
Nebraska farm to winter aud then rang.
ing them until 3 years old, when he be-
lieves a handsome profit will be realized.
Colts are always stunted the first year on
the range and Mr.. Reel seeks to obviate
this.
One of the buyers tells a reporter that
the South want all the horses Wyoming
can raise. The Texas supply has failed
because the breeders OF that state have
neglected to improve their herds. He
says that the best sale is for a young,
good, ser siceable farm animal. Cultlva-
ton of the soil in small tracts has only
fairly commenced in Tennessee, Louisi
ana, Alabama and Georgia. The new
farming element has sufficient capital aud
is progressive. They build good houses,
bny the best tools and will have good
horses at any price.
1t is very fortunate that Wyoming
hoioC EiONciSi 40 II W iiSSouOCitSu
plan, began to improve their herds about
five years age. In Texas scrubby stations
still run at large on the range, but every
Wyoming ranch boasts a quota of well
bred sires which are housed and cared for
as becomes their worth. There are in
Wyoming to-day very few young horses
without a heavy dash OF good blood.
Mr.. Reel will send his colts to Ne
braska simply because he has a big farm
there and has come into possession. in
making a trade, of a quantity of feed.
No one could imagine Mr.. Keel a farmer
and he converts the property into a horse
feeding station.
The Reel plan has already been adopted
by territorial horse growers, who think,
or rather know. that in housing colts the
first winter the growth Of the youngsters
in the journey to maturity will be much
more rapid.
A number of well informed stockmen
yesterday agreed that Wyoming could
easily spare at the present time about
$1,000 head of horses.
This is the horse country. The animals
are raised at a trifling cost end are we'll
nigh perfect horses adapted to any use.
