A rousing meeting of the Laramie
County Democratic club was held last
evening. The new headquarters in the
Cheyenne National Bank block proved
too small to accommodate the gathering
of enthusiastic Democrats. Ringing
addresses we're made by A. G. Campbell,
Prof. f. j. Stanton, Gen. Thompson, ex-
Governor Baxter, Warren Richardson,
Sr., and others. ln the absence OF Presi,
dent Reel, Gibson Clark was in the chair.
An event of the evening was the pre-
sentation to the club by Gen. Thompson,
on behalf OF Everett W. Glafcke, the
brilliant young artist of Cheyenne, of a
crayon portrait OF the late W. w. Corlett
"a perfect likeness. Mr.. Baxter was
called upon and responded for the club.
Judge Kuykendall presented a resolu.
ton of thanks to the artist. The picture
Is placed over the rostrum. draped with
an American flag.
The club membership was increased by
nearly 100, including the names of several
ladies. The latter are urged to join.

An ogsen Paper Mentions Him az {
Wyoming Candidate.

The OGDEN Democrat has the sppen.
ded On the former superintendent of the
Wyoming division. With headquarters at
Cheyenne:
1t is said that the friends of c. E.
Wurtele over in Wyoming are urging
him to allow the use OF his name in con.
nection with some local or state office in
the coming state election. Nj. Wurtele
denies the soft impeachment, but there is
good reason TO believe the rumor is cor
rect.
Mr.. Wurtele has always maintained q
residence in Wyoming despite the effort
Of warm personal friends to induce him
to become a resident OF | tab. And nc
better man could be selected for any of.
foe.
The citizens of western Wyoming,
and especially the Democratic portion,
can find no more popular standard bearer
than Nj. Wurtele. 1t will be a case Of
the Office seeking the man, because Mr..
Wurtele is not in any sense of the term
an Office seeker. and 1t will be difficult ts
persuade him to be a candidate for any
office.
The Democrat will take pleasure il
supporting Mr.. Wurtele for any office hi,
bis friends aad neighbors may see fit tc
call upon him to 6ll. and we only hops
that the Democrats Of western Wyoming
will call him out.

OGDEN, Utah, July Sly. Rapp, a
young man employed in Smith l. Smiths
Office, who made complaint against Post.
master Kimball for alleged detention of
his employers mail, was arrested Sunday
evening for taking undue liberties" with
a ChInaman named Sing Kee. 1t seems
that for some trifing o~ffense, entirely un-
called for. he kicked and otherwise bruised
the Chinaman numerically. The case
came up for trial yesterday morning, but
Judge Preshaw adjourned the case, as the
doctor in charge of John had slight
hopes OF his living.
Upon Investigation it was learned that
the Chinaman lives in the same neighbor-
hood with Rapp. and the quarrel grew
out of a little ditch. the waters from the
same running into Rapp's yard. The
Chinaman was in the garden using a hoe,
when Rapp came over, took the hoe away
from the Celestial and proceeded to batter
him over the head and body. When he
had finished his brutal sport, the China
man had " ribs broken, his head was
cut open and his face badly lacerated.
Grave fears are entertained for his re.
covery. Rapp stands a good show fol
spending a portion of his remaining day:
upon this earth 10 the penitentiary.
Rapp zane here from Cheyenne a yeal
ago.
City people will remember Verna'
Rapp as a good young man who wa.
employed in at least two Cheyenne bust
ness houses aud who canvassed the towr
as a book agent. Afterwards he taught
school out in the country and was re
leased on account of his attentions to ,
big girl pupil. Rapp was an effeminatt
creature who was dubbed "Mauje" by
the joking contingent of a private board
ing house.

Horns growing from the human skin
are very uncommon in their occurrence,
but one of the foreign medical journals
contains an account from a physician of
a case of this kind treated by him, the
subject being a laboring man of So years.
The horn projected for an inch from the
lower lip on the right side, and had a
blunt extremity, was firmly adherent
and the skin around at the base exhib-
tied superficial liberation.
The fact as elected was that it had
first appeared as a small warty growth
some three years previously, had ly
increased, and after being cut of with
q razor on two occasions seemed to grow
again quicker each time. On the oppo-
site side of the same lip was what ap-
peared to be another warty growth in
its early stages. and the patient was in
the habit of holding his clay pipe this
side and not on that from which the
horn grew. There were no glands en-
larged and the patient was in a good
state of health. The treatment, which
was entirely successful, consisted in the
removal of the horn, together with the
part of the lip to which it was attached,
by means of a small V shaped incision
under cocaine locally injected, and
bringing the edges together with one or
two sutures.-Ne~ York Tribune.

A newspaper proprietor, who is now q
wealthy man, tells a amusing story Of
one of his early ventures He went to the
west when but 23 years old with a capital
of only two or three hundred dollars. He
had done some reporting for a local paper
at home and had a smattering of the
printers art. Hearing of a new town in
the mountains, a town Of which great
things were expected, he decided to
establish newspaper there forthwith.
He borrowed some money to add to
his messsr capital, and started alone for
the field with his little hand-press aud
type and paper in a wagon.
The journey was about fifty miles in
length and mostly up hill. The muddy
road made the travelling slow and
difficult, 80 that it was almost dark
when, on the second day, he came within
sight of the new town still five miles
distant. E5gra
Just then, as he pulled through .
slough at a curve in the road, hoover
took a fellow traveller whose old wagon,
70 which was hitched a bony horse, was
hopelessly fast in the mud.
Our young newspaper man promptly
unhitched his horse and went to the other
mans assistance. For nearly an hour
the two men pushed and the two horses
pulled. Finally the horses gave a mighty
tug at the right moment and the cart
was pulled out of the mud
Reaching out his hand with true west
ern heartiness the driver of the ertri-
Gated cart, also a young man of 98 or "a,
said:
Thank you, sir! I'm aver SO much
obliged to you. Times mighty precious
to me, and I don't know what I'd have
done if You hadn't come along. Iwant
to get to the next town just as quick as
can. I've got a newspaper outfit in
my wagon, and 1 hear there's another
fellow trying to get in ahead of me.
Like IS not you've been the means OF
helping me to get the start Of him"
The surprised and ~chagrined "other
fellow" says that for a IN he was
wicked enough to wish his rival back in
the mud, but speedily overcoming all
such ~ungenerous and unmanly feelings
he said with Il laugh:
We'll, 1 happen to be that other fell
lowT'
"You-you arel'
Eyes, sir, I am"
well, I-I-say, s'posing we sit right
down here and talk this thing over"
They encamped together for the night
and after a full conference agreed to go
into partnership, and as soon as it was
light they hastened on to the town.
There they established their paper,
which was the beginning Of great pros
perity for both of them.-Youth's Com

weather for promenading.
FIRST WARD.
The proceedings in the First ward were
simply outrageous and many Republicans
were outspoken in their condemnation of
gang methods. Hugo Don1elman and
q staff with the Siberian exile in the back
ground. were the ~manipulators and their
slate carried. A dozen ticket peddlars
distributed ballots with the names of the
chosen twelve Three more nominations
were made before the polls could be closed.
Gentlemen who suggested names early in
the evening were told that they were too
late. A notable case was that of a Re
publican who wished to place K. +. Stable
in the field The primary was a farce
from beginning to end. 1t was a regular
cut a1d dried machine affair and no truth
full participant can deny it.
H. Donzelman was chairman and Eu-
gene Colwell was secretary. A. W.
jenkins and E. A. Gay were the %teIlers.
This was the slate ticket as elected: T.
