In a letter which lies before me. 1
find this sentence from the pen of Mr..
A M Palmer, manager of the Madison
Square theatre, New York: II am sor-
ry to say that the numerous plays sub
mitted to me every year are all, or
nearly all, totally defective in con-
struction." Critics of a pessimistic
turn of mind may find here food for
lugubrious rumination upon the de-
cadence of the American drama, the
decay of art, the corruption of taste,
and the general decline and fall of the
creative imagination; and l cannot
find it in my heart to deny them this
sweet sorrow. Yet l may be permitted
to remark that, to me personally, the
sentence above quoted seems the most
hopeful sign of a renaissance in u
drama that has SO far appeared on a
very dark and lowering horizon. If
Mr.. Palmer had said, these plays
show no originality" or "the charac-
terization is feeble" or 1.-THE plots are
all stolen from the French, then there
might have appeared just reason for
lamentation and despair; but a knowl-
edge of construction, as everybody
knows who has had any practical ex-
perience in writing plays, is some
thing that almost any one can become
proficient in by a reasonable outlay of
time and studious application. Itsus-
tains to the art of play writing much
the same relation that grammar sus-
tains to oratory. = Professor Albert

ANote From Gen. Miner.

To the Editor OF The Leader.
Fort RUSSELL, Wyo., Dec. Is. 1890.
Your contributor to the social column OF
The LEADER of Sunday morning last re
ferring to the recent %cotillon at this post
states that the guests from CHEYENNE were
compelled to wait two hours for the car of
the Union Pacific to convey them to
the city, and that they were compelled to
remain in the not too comfortable waiting
room until the arrival of the train. I am
unwilling to believe that any guest Of the
occasion could have been guilty of 20
gross a misrepresentation of facts. The
statement is a libel upon the railway
company and a SANDER upon the COM
manding officer. who has never been
wanting in courtesy to the citizens of
Cheyenne. As soon as it was ascertained
that the car had not arrived, the COM
mandinR officer not only went out himself,
but sent messengers to the railway sta
ton and hop room to invite to bis quarters
all who were waiting for the car, and did
welcome them with refreshments until
the car arrived about forty minutes.
Yours truly. HENRY r. MINER.

Hahn a Gun Player.

Louis Hahn, who is under arrest for
the killing OF d. p. Bontecou. the Hanna
station agent, has a reputation for max
ing gun plays" At one time he had a
dispute with Tom Whalen, the smaller
man OF the two, who knocked him down.
When he fell he drew a revolver. but
Whalen prevented him from using it.
Hahn would frequently draw his revolver
and make threats, but he was generally
regarded as a "bluffer." who wouldn't
shoot. He is of ugly disposition.
Persons who try to justify Hahn's
crime give no explanation OF the pecul-
iarities Of a man who went armed with a
revolver to stop a quarrel between hus-
band and wife.

THE OLE IN.

The Sun makes an attempt to cast .
reflection upon the four Democrats and
two Republicans Who voted in the coun-
Gil committee Of the whole to report un-
favorably upon the bill reducing the in
teres, on county warrants from s to 6 per
cent On its face this looks ike a good
bill and It would be q good bill provided
all the surrounding circumstances were
favorable Unfo~rfortunafely they are not.
Suppose a man from the country is .
witness at the district court. The law
allows him 81 per day for his services,
bu, he is paid with q county warrant.
Very few such men are able TO keep the
county warrants until they are redeema-
able in December and must therefore sell
them either at the banks or exchange
them for merchandise. 1t needs no very
great amount Of reasoning to show that
q warrant bearing s per cent interest will
be shaved less than a warrant which only
bears 6 per cent interest The natural
result under the proposed law would be
to further depreciate the value Of county
warrants and the more the county war
rants are deprecated the poorer is the
credit Of the county become. Therefore
on this score there would be the two fold
objection that the county's credit would
be injured in the transaction and the
original holder OF the warrant w,uld lose
Just . per cent more than he is forced to
lose At present
In the cases of parties who bid to do
work for the county the value Of the war
rants would necessarily be tax en- into con
sideration and the bids would be made up
accordingly. 1t would be a very pleasant
thing if. when a business mar in this
county wanted to borrow money, he could
readily secure it here at 6 per cent inter
est. Hc is fortunate sometimes il he can
get it at IL No act Of legislation can
Arbitrarily fix values: these are regulated
by the natural laws OF trade.
In our Judgment the council have
therefore acted wisely in their treatment
Of the county warrant bill.

Weeping Trees of Washington.

In the forests OF Washington and
British Columbia | have frequently
seen the trees dripping copiously during
clear, bright days, when no dew was
visible elsewhere. The dripping was so
profuse that tie ground underneath
the trees was almost saturated. The
phenomenon in this ease Was caused by
the remarkable condensins power OF
the fir, and il occurred only when the
native humidity was near the dew
point. The dripping ceases after 10 or
II o'clock in the morning but resumes
at or near sunset. In Hakluyt's 'Voy-
ages there is an account of Hawkins
second voyage TO Africa and America,
written by gentleman who sailed with
Hawkins, in which we are told that in
the island of Ferro there is a weeping
tree which supplies all the men aad
beasts of the island with drink, there
being no other available water supply.
Further, he states that III Guinea he
saw many weeping trees, but Of spe-
cies different from that at Ferro.-

ROOFING A SAFE.

Pairolman In Denver.

Iairolman IN Denver.
4 night Waterman who was employ
ed to protect a jewelry store in Den
yer against the ragavcS of thieves was
neatly outwitted by the notorious Billy
Forester some years before his death.
The firm carried an immense stock OF
gems, and kept them in a large. old
fashioned safe. Forester had by long
years experience become so familiar
with safes of that pattern that he could
tell when to reverse and when to turn
the knob forward, by placing his ear
close to the door above the combina'
ton, and in this way could open the
safe in short time. By taking wax
impression of the keyhole he made a
key for the front door. Having preyi-
ously located the safe in the store, he
was now ready to begin. 1t was a
cold, snowy, stormy night, about 10
o'clock, and Forester walked up TO
the store with an air of ownership and
unlocked the door He carried small
sample case in his hand. Going in,
be turned up the gas in the rear Of tho
store and then shook down the stove.
ia leisurely worked the combination
to the safe, and in less than half an
hour he had before him thousands OF
dollars worth of costly jewels and gold
watches. Attlis very interesting point
the night Waterman came in. :.
Good evening" said the cordial
burglar, as he continued to remove
valuables from the safe to his sample
case. Come back to the fire and warm
yourself; it is very cold out tonight. >
The patrolman allowed that it was,
and saumtered back to the stove.
I'm packing up my samples, went
on the thief suavely. Going out on
the road in the morning, and thought
would get ready tonight. There
isn't that beauty he asked, holding
out an elegant Jurgensen Tor the
Waterman to examine.
In this way Forester packed over
$4,000 worth of gems and watches into
his sample case, chatting cheertulIy
with the night Waterman all the
while.
AS he was about to close the sample
case he stopped suddenly as if struck
by happy thought, and then picked
up very pretty ring. Turning to
the Waterman he asked him if he had
o wife The Waterman had, and With
a careless laugh Forester tossed hin!
the ring, saying: Give her that, ana
tell l.cr ii is !. l.i,.rI, of appreciation for
the faithful services rendered by her
husband"
The brilliant guardian of other PEG
ple's property was delighted, and was
Unusually wide awake all the rest OF
the night 1t was not until next morn
ing that he became aware OF the hoax
that had been practiced upon him;
Forester by that time was we'll out OF
the way, and bis connection with the
robbery was not discovered till few
days before his death, when he con-
iessed it.-Exchange.

Bankruptcy appears to be becoming
fashionable among the great princes OF
Germany. Within two months Prince
Albert, of the sovereign house Of Wal

family of Liechts ustein, and Prince
Trautmannsdortf Fave all three been
declared insolvcni debtors and placed

that of y Rhinegrave and of Spanish
Grandce of the fist class. his debts
amount to about So 600, 600.
During the course of the legal pro
ceedings it was shown that until his
fathers death he hal been forced to
content himself with paltry allow
ance of 81, 200 per nnnuIn, which, al
though possibly sufficient for the wants
of an ordinary mortal, WAS far from
adequate for high and mighty prince
who refuses TO smoke anything but
Havana cigars at 50 apiece. Under
the circumstances 1t is not surprising
that it should have been tobacco
merchant who first instituted the steps
that finally landed his hiShness in the
bankruptcy court and resulted in his
being placed 'unter curatelle."

Fowls AND EGGS FOR MARKET.
Advice That May Provo Useful to Bo-
ginncrs.

ginncrs.
In raising fowls for market flesh is the
first consideration. Select therefore
breed which will make the greatest
growth in the shortest time and be Of
good quality for the table. Select 40
cording to tho requirement of your own
special market and your fancy-Lang-
shans, Brahmas, Plymouth Rocks, Wy
andottes, Javas or DorkinGs These va
rieties, with their crosses, are hardy and,
if intelligently fed, attain large size at
an early age The Wyandotte just now
is popular fowl, the silvers. goldens and
blacks all having enthusiastic admirers;
the white Wyandottes are also receiving
high praise from their advocates. 1t is
claimed that they are not only orna-
mental in the yards and toothsome of
flesh, but good layers as well. The dark
Brahmas are classed by many breeders
as the best of the Brahma varieties.
With careful management there is
none of our small industries that is more
profitable than raising eggs for our city
markets. When eggs alone are desired
the fowls selected should be Leghorns,
white faced black Spanish, Minorcas or
other laying breeds. Avoid the common
mistake of giving too much stimulating
food. Bear in mind the clements that
enter into the composition of an egg aud
feed accordingly. Oats, wheat and bar
ley are all good for eggs, with just
enough corn to supply the proper degree
of heat A sudden change from one kind
of grain to another will often stop hons
from laying for short time, us will sud.

being hare to digest, should DO given
