The Ten Travellers.

Ten weary, footsore travellers,
All in q woful plight,
Sought shelter at n wayside inn
One dark and stormy night
mine rooms, no more, " the landlord sad,
''Have l TO offer you;
To each of eight q single bed,
But the ninth must serve for two. "
4 din arose. The troubled host
Could only scratch his head,
For of those tired men no two
Would occupy one bed
The puzzled host was soon at ease
He was q clever man,
And 50 to please his guests devised
This most ingenious plan:

San Francisco paper states that Mr..
Adolph Sutro is experimenting with cinchona
trees on his estate the neighboring sea
coast. He hopes to acclimatize at least some
of the varieties from which quinine is pro-
duced; and, if so, will doubtless be more than
repaid for his enterprise.

In room marked 4 two men were placed,
The third was lodged in B,
The fourth to was then assigned,
The fifth retired to D.
In Z the sixth he tucked away,
In F the seventh man,
The eighth and ninth in G and H,
And then to A he ran
Wherein the host, as 1 have said,
Had laid two travellers by;
Then taking one, the tenth and last,
He lodged him safe in l.
Nine single rooms, a room for each,
Were made to serve for ten;
And this it is that puzzles me
And many wiser men
The above puzzle is really very simple,
though the explanation may not at once oc-
cur to the reader If man No. 1 and man
No. were the only ones placed in room A,
man No 10 could not have been taken from
there to room l. Obviously, therefore, there
must have been three men originally there, or
else one of the three was left out in the
cold"

gun clubs of that sportive place, writes to
Denver Sports Afeld.

of the directors is to be-, and L
think will be, commended by all. The
Cheyenne sportsmen one n all are q

shots are gentlemen of standing at home
and abroad.
Since the tournament was voted to
Cheyenne neighboring towns have had
shooting r~eyivals and all will send big
delegations Representative men. Lara
mic has as many trap experts as Chey-
enne and practice shoots are held every
week. Greeley has organized two
gun clubs IN the past thirty days,
and there is much interest in the
genteel sport at that town. Boulder. a
live place very friendly to Cheyenne has
several clubs and . crack team of ten
men men who only misied 20 per sent OF
the birds they shot at last year. Long

Colorado coal town named Louisville will
send several experts.
Denver and Leadville are expected to
be prominent in the tournament. New
Mexico. Utah and Nebraska men will
appear and there will be many from
greater distances. Every Wyoming
town is in duty bound to lend a hand.
At this time there is every indication
that the tourney will be a tremendous
success.

PLAINS TIMBER CULTURE.
What a Practical Man SAYS Of Tire.
Growing in This Section.

Thomas Henderson, a Logan county,
Neb., farmer, has been here several days
waiting for the arrival from the West of
teams he has had on a Union Pacific
grading contract, At the depot yester-
day he fell to talking of timber culture in
the West, especially in Nebraska and
Wyoming.
Said he: "Of course they will raise
timber on these plains. In my country
everyone is planting sugar beets, and l
have a big field, but 1 shall not lose sight
of the fact that trees 20 a good way to.
wards making home a home. Forty
years ago | settled in Illinois, and there
they told me we could not raise trees on
the prairies Of that state, but time proved
some men to have been badly mistaken,
for when | moved away, fifteen years ago
last summer, | left ten acres of as fine
timber as you ever set eyes upon, and l
had planted it all myself, with what help
the boys gave me.
we came west. and says | to the old
woman, now we'll show these people how
to raise timber The second year we
planted an acre of maple and ash, and
every year since that we have been put
ting out trees, until we now have thirty
acres of as fine grove as can be found In
the state; but 1t took work. and if | do say
1t L have the finest grove l have seen in
the West. But it is no better than any
farmer can have it he will be industrious.
1t makes me feel weary when | hear peo-
pie talk about not being able to raise
trees In the West. l know what I'm
talking about, and when 1 say you can
raise anything it you will work, I'm Civ
ing you the word that is covered with the
good solid bark of truth, and from what

Wyoming as l have done in Nebraska"

The world renowned success of Hystet-

A REMARKABLE SHOWING.
Great Success of a Cheyenne Banker
in Building mp BusIness.

In the San Diego Sun, which has Just
reached here, there appears an article
which is of considerable interest to the
people OF Cheyenne. 1t is in reference to
the California National bank of that city,
of which John W. Collins, president of
the Cheyenne National bank, is cashier.
According to the San Diego Sun the
California National bank commenced
business Jan. 8. 1888. with a paid up
capital of $4,000. The interesting fea-
ture ofthe article is a comparative state
ment of the banks business Dec. IL,
1888, and on Dec. IL. 1889. The in
crease is something remarkable, as the
sworn statements themselves will show.

AFTER THE FAIR GROUNDS.
A Scheme to Cut the Exposition
Grounds Into Ctr Lots.

Moneyed men of speculative tendencies
are quietly e~ndeavoring to secure tho fine
land here of TIT Wyoming Fair Associa-
ton. Overtures for transfer of certificates
have been made to a large number of
shareholders during the past few days.
1t is the purpose of the sly operators
to put a large portion of the tract on the
market as city lots when the proper time
arrives, but it is extremely doubtful if the
project succeeds this year, anyway The
fair association. in the person of those
most heavily interested, knows the value
of its land holding, and the men are about
as keen as the average inhabitant of the
great round earth which is the planet
upon which we live.
Association stock is held at par, and is
said to be worth six bits on the dollar as
collateral.
This plan ID but one of mapy in the real
estate line now forming.

Some remarks made by Rev. A. W,
Williams at the funeral of Capt. Pierce
yesterday have caused a good deal of
comment and not a little criticism. He
said in effect: To-day there is crepe on
the door OF the Gold Room; tomorrow
there will be crepe on the door of the
adjoining place and soon there will be
crepe on the door of every saloon in
town"
The question is being ~anxiously asked
whether Mr.. Williams was prophesying
the death of all men engaged IN the
gambling and saloon business or whether
he was simply using a metaphor to indi.
cate that the blue laws were soon to be
put In operation here and all such bust
nesses were to be wiped out.
