ton OF everyone that bedrock prices had
been reached and there would be a stiff
market at good figures throughout the
season. 1t was shown with mathematical
accuracy that the sources Of supply were
rapidly narrowing and a large percentage
Of the breeding stock had either been put
upon the retired list or shipped to market.
The facts were indisputable but the deduc-
tons were incorrect. The poor crops and
general shortness Of feed forced the small
farmers to get nd of their stock at any
price and some OF the range owners who
relied on win ter feeding for the spring
markets we're put in a similar predica-
ment. The result was a general rush to
the market, n glut and extremely low
prices.
But this only brings the day OF deliver
ance for the cattlemen closer to hand.
The long expected era OF good prices
cannot be much longer delayed
with the visible supply OF cattle SO rapidly
diminishing as it has been in the past few
years. 1t Is 10 longer a matter OF doubt
that the next FIVE years will be seasons
OF uuexampled prosperity for the cattle
men and that more money will be made
IN the business than in any other
legitimate business in the West.
This is a good time for cattlemen to
hold on to what they have got.

Prof. Hermauh's Trans-Atlantidues,

pletest organization of its kind travelling

Washington, French musical eccentrixues
from the Folles Bergeres, Paris; Gus
Bruno in his famous munologue; Gay and
Goodwin in a comic sketch, Two Kids,
and Josephine Henly from the Empire
theater. London, one Of the nimblest OF
dancers, and the Glinseretti troupe OF
acrobats. The programme says that they
are absolutely the greatest acrobats e1-
tant, and this claim is true in general and
in particular. Harry Kennedy, prince Of
ventriloqulsts, IN his wonderful feats OF
the double voice, astonished the audience
by his strange powers. D'Alvini, whom
all hold in grateful remembrance, was no
greater than this wonder from the Estab-
Basement Roumacher in Vienna His
juggling is simply beautiful and as far as
the stage setting on which the artists in
HE kne pride themselves, is concerned,
and elegance of apparatus and COSTUME, it
ia entirely safe to say that nothing like
them has ever been seen in this city be-
fore, Then there is piqunnt and electri
fying Flora Moore in her Down went Nc
GiDty in German. George Holloway
concludes the entertainment by mounting
a slender, unsupported ladder, which is
long enough to hide his head in the arti-
fetal sky that adorns the stage, a feat of
balancing that is absolutely without a par
allel.

WELCOME. THRICE WELCOME,

BETTER SERVICE HOPED FOR.

~ "a IL ASD - a
The people of Cheyenne will greet
with profound satisfaction the completion
of the Cheyenne & Northern road, if for
no other reason than that We may then
hope for improved train service.
The present arrangement is little short
Of a delusion and a snare 80 far as tho
merchants here are concerned. 1t re-
duires a days travel to cover the 1875
miles which intervene between Cheyenne
and Wsndover, Ii the train coming into
Cheyenne is late, as il often is, an order
sent from some northern point can be
filed with as much expedition il sent to
Omaha as if 1t we're sent to Cheyenne.
Suppose the train reaching here on q
Tuesday arrives behind time. 1t brings
with it an order for some goods for
which there is an urgent demand. This
order must be filed and got to the freight
office by 5 O'Clock or it cannot be re-
eeived. 1t may, therefore, miss the
Wednesday morning train, thus laying
over until Friday morning, to the IN
tense annoyance or even positive loss to
the merchant and customer.
Under the recent Encouragement the
Cheyenne & Northern was placed under
the Fort Worth branch of the Union Pa
ciic and Is controlled from the h~eadquar-
tiers at Denver. If the object is 70 make
it q part OF the through line without ref
erence to the local business this may work
very well but if the purpose is to build
up a good local business along this branch
line the management is too remote. 1t is
to be hoped that the Cheyenne & North
ern will soon be running daily trains
again. Should its MANAGEMENT then re-
eeive a decent amount of direct personal
attention it will become an important
feeder to the Union Pacific and its bust
ness will grow rapidly and generously.

HOMER MERRILL, of Rawlius, was yes.
terdAy appointed TO the supreme bench to
ill the vacancy occasioned BY the resigna.
ton of Chief Justice Van Devanter.
This seems to Indicate that the Carbon
county delegation is now solid for Warren
aud that the legislature will attach good
salaries to the Judiciary offices. The APP
pointment leaves Laramie county without
a representative either on the supreme OF
the district court benches which is all the
more noteworthy when it is considered
that che people of Wyoming elected one
member of the supreme court whose resi-
dence was in this county. 1t looks as
though in this matter Laramie county was
a victim of political e~xpedicncy although
the people are getting over being sur.

The fire vas not discovered until it had
worked its way through the roof. In prompt
response to the alarm Of fire q number Of
citizens brought on, the hook and ladder
truck, and went to work fighting the flames.
After the hardest kind of work the fire was
gotten under control. and the house was
finally saved, after being damaged about
$3.50. The house was insured, but
the furniture, which belongs to Mr.. John
son, was not insured, and is very much
damaged. Much credit is due to those that
worked at the fire. and especially so to some
OF the members Of the New York Comedy
Company, one Of whom, Mr.. Frank Nei-
berger, in getting on the roof fell from it to
the ground, and afterwards worked so faith
ful that he tainted. In appreciation Of his
services the town council awarded him the
license fee collected from this company. The
trustees Of the school gave TO tie members
of the troape who worked so faithfully the
rent the company had paid for the use OF
the school building. The little boys of the
town rendered valuable service by keeping
4 good supply of water on hand to extin-
9uish the ire.

A two-year-old steer, weighing 500 pounds,
was first experimental on. Mr. Harold p
Brown, the New York City electrical Gu
gineer, conducted the experiment At a
given signal. as the Herald correspondent
states, Mr.. Brown turned on a 900 volt cur-
rent, and at the same instant, the animal
dropped dead without cream or
struggle. There was no appreciable
or measurable lapse of time be-
tween the turning on Of the current and the
death Of the animal. DR.. Rockwell, who
was present, said it was not possible to ex-
perience pain from electrical death, because
the electric current travels so much faster
than the nerve force that death occurred
before the brain can experience any sensa-

Big Fire in Sumter.

Yesterday morning (rues.Iay, Jan. 2Sth)
about four o'clock tie store of Il. p. Mona
ghan, in Sumter, was discovered to be on
fire. The fire is supposed to have originated
in the Office Of the G. S. T. \. r. R., which
was located on the second floor Of this build
ing, and in which a kerosene lamp was
burning. When discovered the frt
had made such progress that scarcely
hundred dollars worth of goods could be
saved Estimated loss $4,000; insurance
Sl4, 900.
The Bank Of Sumter Vas the next to
burn. Loss 81, 700; insurance 81, 200.
The next building to burn was the furDi-
ture store of Durant & Belitzer. Their
handsome stock of furniture, which would
have been an ornament to any city, was par
TALLY saved. All on the first floor was re-
moved, but in many instances badly dam
aged. Their stock On the second floor was
4 complete loss. Fire had broken through
the south wall, and burned the staircase, so
that removing it was an utter impossibility.
Loss about 81, 600: insurance $1,000.
Next to Durant Il Belitzer is the hardware
store of r. w Durant & Son. This building
was not burned, but damaged, and the goods
We're all removed. Their loss by handling
and breakage will be about $500; insurance
Sc, 700.
Miss McElhose's millinery establishment
was not burned, but was damaged about
Sl0O, fully covered by insurance.
The south wall of Mr.. A. A. Solomons
building, occupied by R. W. Durant & Son,
appears to be badly damaged and may have
to come down The back of the building is
also damaged to 4 limited extent
The Sumter Electric Light Company lost
about 500 in lamps and sockets, inside and
outside wire and counters.
Mr. John Morris's clothing store, diago-
nally opposite the fire, caught several times
and was rs often saved from destruction by
persistent effort
The fire continued for abont seven hours,
before it was gotten under control. The fire
department did excellent service, and by
keeping the flames under control saved much
property.

Read Aloud.

Among the improvement clubs for the
winter, let us hope the reading aloud class
mas its place. II one has a husky voice or
a feeble one, if he forms his words away
back in his throat, instead Of Oh the tip of
his tongue, if one is careless and sloyenly
in his pronunciation, if one is awkward and
bashful and afraid to open his mouth before
folks, nothing will correct all these detects
so like charm as reading aloud. Read de-
iberately, distinctly opening Your mouth
sufficiently to let the sounds ont clearly.
Always have q critic in your class, or let
all the class criticise the reader Note care
fully, but with the utmost good nature al
ways, the mispronunciationS, the thick and
smothered enunciation, and that frightful
nasal twang ior which Americans are 50
Justly held up to ridicule i'll Europe. Listen
to the conversation of those around y0u,
listen even to your own voice, and nine
times ont of ten you will find the horril
nasal twang is there, though you have never
noticed it.
Everybody, perhaps, cannot learn to sing,
but everybody can certainly learn to read
aloud we'll, in a sweet, clear, steady voice,
with taultless pronunciation, and with the
ring Of cultivation and refinement in his
tones. Yet there are fewer good readers
than good singers. - Charleston .S'm.
