UTILIZING SODA DEPOSITS

The Denver Republican of a few days
ago contained a special dispatch from
Colorado City in reference to the es-
adjustment of a glass factory there. The
plant cost nearly $40, 900 and is said to be
one of the handiest and most complete in
the county. For the present the works
are not intended to manufacture anything
but bottles, enough orders being already
booked to keep a full force running for
some months. One hundred and twenty
five glassblowers will be employed.
A plant employing l25 glass blowers,
would give employment to about three
hundred workmen, as in addition to the
blowers. helpers and other workmen are
necessary. The most expensive material
in glassmakiug is soda. All the soda
used in the United States to-day is i'm
ported from Europe except a compare
lively small quantity made near Syracuse,
New York, from salt.
Soda IN the form, or under the name of
salt cake is now mostly used in glassmak-
ing.
Salt cake costs at St. Louis SIG per
ton, at Colorado Springs not less than $50
per tom.
Wyoming native coda, with simply the
water dried out, is salt cake, and the Wy.
Oming soda is from 20 to 40 per cent.
stronger than the imported article.

4 MUNICIPAL BEAUTY SPOE

-
The most attractive resort which the
city VIII afford this year is the city park.
Considering the amount of money appro-
Driated for its maintenance, the result
cannot help proving astonishing tn every
one who may visit the place.
1t is intended to ultimately replace the
wire fence which at present surrounds the
park with a fine hedge, which has already
been planted on the south and west sides.
The northeast square has been laid out in
serpentine walks of nearly a mile in
length. The new horse power mower and
sweeper are kept busily employed every
day, with the result of keeping the
entire surface of the park shorn rs
neatly as the most carefully tended
private lawns. The fountain is in opera
ton although the water is not turned into
the upper structure until the weather be-
comes thoroughly settled. Fish from the
hatchery have been placed in the main
and flowers, with which Mr.. Altman's
greenhouse is filled, will be placed about
the base. Everything shrubs are being
planted at intervals along the walks and
the many plats. in faucifdl designs, are
seeded aud doing nicely. The pagoda is
is being beautifully transformed by care
ful attention. Creepers are planted around
it and about the middle of next month it
will look like a beautiful bower. The
same will be true of the rockery.
Only two large beds OF flowers have yet
beer tra~nsplanted from the greenhouse to
the park. These consist of tulips and
hyacinths and present a pretty picture to
the eye as it ]glanccs along the green land
scapc. Immense quantities of flowers are
ready for transplanting and in the middle
of July will pr, scut a scene of beauty cal
culatcd TO outshine tho natives. All the
trees are doing beautifully and the turf is
as completely matted as any seen under
the most favorable auspices.
There is no one thing that will tend TO
advertise the city and country more than
the park. The impression is still abroad
that We are living in the midst of a desert.
The visitor who reaches town through the
bleak stretches of country to the east of us
may well believe the impression well
founded, but a sight of the park will
instantly dissipate all such notions and
send him away from Cheyenne with the
belief that it is as beautiful n Little city
as he has ever seen. No public money
has ever been expended by the city au
thOritlcs to better advantage han in. the
adornmcnt of the city park. 1t is after
all our browning municipal glory and
th use who have given it their time and in
tcllIgent attention deserve well of the
people.
Arrangements should be made for open
air concerts at the park every Sunday
afternoon during the summer. There are
many people who cannot afford to pay for
a conveyance to take them 10 the fort and
the concert at the park would therefore
be a source Of great recreation to them.

AN EXCELLENT LESSON.

Once when travelling in a stage
coach, L met a young lady who
seemed to be on the constant lookout
for something laughable, and not
content with laughing herself, took
great pains to make others do the
same.
After awhile an old woman came
running across the fields, swinging
her bag at the coachman, and in a
shrill voice begging him to stop.
The good natured cOachman drew
up his horse, and the old lady, COM
ing to the fence by the roadside,
squeezed herself through two bars
which were not only in a horizontal
position, but very near together.
The young lady made someludicrous
remarks and the passengers laughed.
1t seemed eXcusable, for in getting
through the fence the poor woman
had made sad work of her old black
bonnet. This was a new piece of fun,
and the girl made the most of it. She
caricatured the old lady upon card;
pretended, when she was not look
ing, to take patterns, of her bonnet,
and in various other ways tried to
raise laugh. At length the poor
woman turned pale face toward
her.
My dear" said she, you are
young and happy; l have been SO,
too, but am now deerepit and for
lorn. This coach is taking me to the
death-bed of my child, And then, my
dear. shall be all alone in the world"
The coach stopped before poor
looking house, and the old lady feebly
descended the steps.
How is she ~ was the first trem-
bling inquiry of the poor mother
LUST alive" said the man who
was leading her into the house
Putting up the steps the driver
mounted his box, and we were on the
road again Our merry young friend
had placed her card in her pocket.
She was leaning her head upon her
hand; and | was not sorry to see a
tear upon her fair young cheek. 1t
was a good lesson.-[Salem Gazette

1T SERVED THEM RIGHT.

Served them right-we mean the
boys who were beaten by the girls in
the recent contest in the public
schools of San Francisco. The EX-
aminer of that city offered d free trip
to the Paris exposition as a prize to
the pupil who should pass the best
examination. and six girls came out
ahead of all the boys. Among the
reasons assigned for the failure on
the part of the boys was the habit of
cigaret smoking, and the influence of
light literature. The youth who
prefers to stunt his body with tObac-
co, and his mind with cheap novels,
10 trip abroad, ought to forfeit the
pleasure which travel brings Par
ents will find food for reflection in
the statements made by the school
superintendents in connection with
the neutrality-suspicious..

SINGING IN THE RAIN.

BY MARGARET E. sANGsTER-
Hear my happy little bird
Singing through the rain
Singing while the fitful showers
Dash against the pane.
'-Blue sky somewhere" carols he
From his fearless heart,
Though the clouds are gathering thick,
And the chill winds start
Sweet and shriIl the silver notes
Weave wordIess strain;
''Blue sky somewhere" in my thought
Is their glad refrain
Always sunshine just beyond.
Brief the present i'll,
Trouble never long to last.
Is their meaning still.
Sing thy sweetest, merry bird,
Comforter of mine,
Bringing, in thy little way,
Help from Love divine;
Thou hast given me the clasp
of a golden chain,
Let from heaven into my hand,
Through the clouds and rain.
What though all my way be hedged,
Love shall ope door
For the feet that follow fain
His that went before.
What though trials test my faith,
Peace shall yet maintain.
Right to rule in one who walks
Singing in the rain.
More than 1 can count of good
Aye has been my share;
Dearest hands to help me on.
Having all my care;
Blessings marking every day,
To the latest one,
And the shadows only proof
OF the glowing sun
Therefore with undaunted front,
Trusting in my King,
Shall face whatever foe
In the path may spring.
So / hear note of cheer
In the brave refrain
Of my merry little bird,
Singing in the rain

Will you tell me if the poppy can be grown in
Florida? If SO, on what kind OF land-high or
low? What fertilizer would be best for the above?
Kathleen, Fla. J. LEWIS.
There is no question about the adapta-
bility of our soil and climate to the poppy,
but the profit adduceable from it's culti-
vation is questionable, as the Wanufact-
ure of the opium from the unripe capsules
of the plant is rather tedious and ex
pensive operation. The poppy does best
on rich, moist soil. The seed should be
sown in the fall, either broadcast in beds
or in drills. Some time ago party wrote
glowing letters about theprofts OF poppy
culture on the Indian River, and when he
had the people worked up to the proper
pitch of excitement he offered to "give
further information for $40" Some cred
ulous individuals sent the $40, but have
never received the promised further in
