Baron Hans Won Wedell, who has
been known here several years as a
draughtsman died yesterday morning at
the Hilger residence in the northwestern
portion of the city.
The deceased was born Dec. Is, 1858
and had been in the United States nine
years. Since his advent to Wyoming he
has always had employment as an expert
draughtsman, being for a long time In
the surveyor generals Office aud alter
wards with Engineer Mead. On map
work he had few equals, having bested all
others in a competition open to all en-
ployes OF the government.
Won Wedell was a lieutenant in the
Prussian Guards for a term. He comes
of one of the noblest families of the en-
pirc.
The dead man had fine scholarly attain
ments and was a cultivated and polished
gentleman.
To day the remains will he inferred.
There will lie brief services at the resi-,
dence. when the cortege will move to the
Presbyterian ch1rch.

1T is LEAKY.
The Brick Stand Pipe of h Water
system Is in Bad shape.

The brick stand pipe erected near Lake
Mahpahlutah for the purpose OF Increas
ing the natural pressure of the city water
system and intended to practically replace
the reservoirs, is coated heavily with ice
and there is every evidence that it leaks
badly. These facts were reported to
Mayor Riner Yesterday. A couple OF city
officers made the statement that the big
brick reservoir was leaky and hat a new
stand pipe was about the only thing that
would make the system reliable.
This standpipe was constructed under
contract and failed to stand the test in
the first instance; but the city made ar
Engagements with the builders to complete
the work itself and the result is a Job that
threatens . temporary return at least to
lake water.
Brick stand pipes are rare and if the
city water committee had used the best
judgment an iron or steel pipe would be
in service instead of an insecure brick
affair. The cost would have been about
the same and the metal pipe would have
been a good investment.

Plentyiof Water and Productive Soil
ON the Big sandy.

In speaking of the Big Sandy country
north of Rock Springs, Surveyor Sawin
said to the Boomerang:
The advantages of that country are
that it is susceptible of irrigation and a
large natural reservoir system can be
formed from the lakes on the west side of
the Wind river range. These lakes are
at an altitude of about 1900 feet while
the lands are about the same altitude as
the Laramie Plains. The soil, however,
is less sandy aud very productive. New
Fork and its various tributaries cover a
country from forty to fifty miles square.
A very large portion OF it can be irrigated
successfully. All the lakes up there and
the streams which flow from them. or
really through them, are full of trout.
Fremont lake is a magnificent sheet of
water about twelve miles long and very
deep. Elk, antelope and deer abound
and it is one of the finest countries for
game that l know of. But the section is
settling up rather slowly. 1t is a long
way of, slut there is a fine opportunity
there for ranches.
81 visited South Pass and it is Ger.
tainly one of the finest specimen coun
tries that there is anywhere, but it is I'M
fortunate that SO many false reports have
been sent out concerning discoveries there.
So far as the mines are concerned it IS all
placer mining. and | see only one way to
work them, and that is to put halfa mill
ion dollars into an irrigation ditch. At.
lantic City reminds me of some # the de.
serted camps 10 California described by
Bret Harte. Men are still there who
have grown gray and who have put all their
energy and their money into tt cir claims
there. They started in full of hope and
are now disappointed men. but are still
hanging on in the hope that there will vet
come a turn of the wheel of fortune which
will benefit them"

The Railcdy Age remarks that a speed
OF 100 miles an hour is believed by Hun
tington to be entirely practicable, pro
yided the necessary an expensive prepare
tons for it in the character of both road
way and equipment are made. He pro-
ceeds to cite the principal sources of
danger from fast running which now exist
and can be, to a large extent, at least,
removed by sufficient expenditure of skill
and money, and claims with proper align
ment and with tracks and rolling stock in
perfect order, there is no more danger of
derailmen. at 100 miles an hour than at
the speed now run every day on Ameri-
can roads. 1t may be that this tremen-
dous speed will eventually become of
ordinary occurrence. but at the present
time the general feeling among railway
men and other people is that fast trains
are fast enough. and, indeed. it is a ques,
ton whether the majority of people, rail-
way men included, would not feel a little
more comfortable in their minds If the
pace at which they are sometimes carried
was not quite SO great

A SUFFERER.
He Seeks Uncertain Relief From a
Mustard Plaster.

Cheyenne people who are now, or have
lately been, suffering from influenza or
what is it" will be interested in the ex-
perience of young Chicago man. AS
related by himselfit was as follows: AL
most every one is sick these days, and
every one fears the dread disease-pneu-
monia. The other night a young South
Side man went home with a pain in his
chest, and On his way home he began
making a mental list of his pail bearers.
His wife suggested the good old home
remedy-a mustard plaster. He was per-
fec,ly willing to adopt heroic measures to
award of disease, and the mustard plas-
ter was carefully compounded for him.
1t was one OF those old fashioned mustard
plasters, with claws and teeth and e grip
like a cable car. The young man retired
early and clapped the plaster on his chest.
and he was exceedingly tired he dropped
of to sleep before the mustard plaster
fairly caught hold. About ) a. m. he
awoke with start.
ihSiO OH awful, uuLCai aDlC, uuih-
ing sensation in the small of his back,
and his first thought was that the dread
pneumonia had bored through his system
and emerged on the opposite side. But
investigation proved that he had been rest
less in the night and that the mustard
plaster had been chased by his writhing
and twisting around to the southern part
OF his spine, where it had lodged between
his vest buckle and the great round earth,
which is the planet Upon which we live.
Its itineracy could be traced by a livid
pathway. The young man lost no time
In removing the plaster, also about four
square inches of %cuticle, and when he went
down town he did not lean back in the
street car seat. The net time he has oc.
casion to apply a mustard plaster he will
secure it with thumb tacks or mucilage.
However, it drew out the seeds of pneu,
monia. The young man firmly believes
that that mustard plaster could have
pulled a gambling house"
