TIMELY
How TO Conduct Yourself at a Church
Eair.

These paragraphs are from a work on
Church Fair Etiquette" prepared by a
recognized Eastern authority. Cut them
out:
Be c~onsiderate of others. If you have
bought a match safe for $25 and you hear
that somebody else wants it, let some one
else have it at cost. This kind of virtue
is its own reward.
If there is a savage bulldog up to be
voted into the possession of the most pop
ular man at the fair you may with perfect
propriety vote against your dearest friend
or even your finances father.
1t is not considered good form to win
in a rattle. Very few of our best people
ever do this, and persons who observe the
conventionalities of society should eschew
forever the winning number.
Do not think it witty after you have
been shown the flower booth and basket
booth to be asked to be shown the Edwin
Booth. The writer tried hat once, and
the rosy checked damsel, who should
have smiled said that Edwin Booth wasn't
there.
Do not leave your pocket book in the
cloak o and be sure that no loose
change is left in your oyercoat pocket.
The latest accepted rules of cloak room
etiquette give the contents of overcoat
pockets to the charity for which the fail
is given.
Be sure to ~patronize the post Office and
remember it is a sign of ill-breeding to
grow angry because the letter you receive
is Extensively personal. Offensive per
sonality is required by the etiquette that
obtains in the post office department OF
church fair.

Horses and Cattle.

MIR. p. I. Mcnamara. who is running
about $50 head of horses in Carbon county,
said to a Denver Netos reporter Thursday:
MY horses are looking well. l have not
lost one during the winter. Horses en-
dure cold weather much better than cattle,
but cattle have not suffered there this
winter. l am informed by cattlemen in
Wyoming hat their losses have been
lighter this winter than for years. The
horsemen of Wyoming are exceedingly
pleased with the condition of their horses.
The horse business promises to improve
materially this year. Another winter in
the Northwest like the present would put
the horse growers in a better position than
they have ever occupied, especially in a
financial way"

Laramie papers recently gave publicity
to the discovery, near Rock creek, of large
deposits OF asbestos, but judging from the
reports they must yield the palm to Doug.
las. Mr.. Emanuel George yesterday
brought in several hundred pounds OF
this mineral, which he says is to be found
In practically inexhaustible quantities
within twelve miles of town. Although
these specimens are merely groupings, yet
they show a fibre of from one to two feet
in length as fine and soft as silk. Owing
probably to exposure to the elements the
fibre is not SO tough as is desirable-the
specimens having been taken from the
surface OF the ground-yet development
will unquestionably yield an article equal
to the best ever found. That it is ashes
tos, without impurities of any kind, is
proven also by the fact that a jewelers.
blow pipe failed to make aver the slight.

UNITED STATES pENrrENTIARY
The PauIy Company to Build the
Prison at Laramie.

Jas. j. Ligon. vice president of the
Pauly Jail Building company OF st.
Louis, arrived from the East yesterday
and is quartered at the Inter Ocean.
The company has been awarded the
contract to build an extensive addition to
the United States penitentiary at Lara
mic, and will work at once.
M. p. Keefe Of Cheyenne win co operate
with the company.
The plans for the work contemplate the
expenditure of $4,000 in the placing Of
a modern Jail plant with the latest i'm
provements in the way of light. heat,
ventilation, water, kitchen, sleeping
rooms, patent lock system, and sep
arate compartments for who
may be unfortunate enough to be
committed. Work is to commence at
once. The adopted plans were prepared
with a view to using the building already
in existence and making still other ad-
ditions without marring the agricultural
appearance OF the penitentiary.
The Pauley company has placed two
steel cells in the Laramie county jail. a
Jail at Lander, another at Evanston and Is
about to build a Jail at Denver for Arapa-
hoe county.
