worth in all so far recovered. 1t is as

most discussed, and it was left unde-
cided for week. From Aug. 10 to Sept

probable weather, the time of hold
ing the state fair and the bust

factors bearing on the question of date

given to Mr. Smith to accept or reject
it. The use of the building for the
Christian Endeavor convention was
asked for and a decision was postponed
for one week. The desirability of join

Though wild game has been decimated
in number within the past few years by
INSCRIPTIONS hunters, it is not all gone
yet. Still it is even rare to see even an
antelope close to the city, though now
and then small band Of backtail deer
will come down from the hills to drink
at the city springs. or q stray elk may be
seen between here and Sheep mountain
On this account the sight witnessed by
Charles Book. who came in from North
Park. was an exceedingly interesting
one.
When just this side Of Pinkhampton,
near the Mountain Home ranch, about
thirty-five miles from Laramie, he saw
four bull elk. ten deer and herd Of an.
telope, so numerous that he could moi.
count them, grazing altogether in little
park close by the roadside. He did not
disturb them and they paid no attention
to his presence, so he took a good look.
1t reminded him of visit to the zoolog-
ical gardens in some eastern city to see
such number and variety of animals
congregated together in so small space.

Trying Days for the Fat Man.


These are the days when the man who
tips the scales at ESQ and wears tn,
largest sized collar has delightful tim.
on the cars.
He boards the train with genial smile
for all fat men are jolly and are borr
for the express purpose of laughing theil
way through this vale of tears.
In few moments. however, he does
not feel half so gay. He fans himself
with his paper, but that only gives the
perspiration chance to assert itself in
large globules and play tag down his
neck and chase itself across his rubicund
face.
He must have the window up, so he
makes grab for the side spring and the
litter. But the window stays right where
it is. He is now hotter than ever.
He wades in muttered explosives. He
mathematics the railroad corporation.
He turns nervously in his seat, but his
clothes stick to him like porous plaster.
He tries to make dignified swoop for
the ice water tank, but he bumps into
seat after seat and is forced to make a
dozen apologies. each serving to make
him madden.
And thus he pursues his tortuous jour
ney with wheezes Of disgust, while he
swelters and melts and continues to try
to keep cool.-Albany Argus.
