EXTRA SILVER DRIP SYRUP, at
II RANDOLPH & Co.'s
, 1891-03-21

There are Two things in which the
Board OF Trade has lately interested itself
which are calculated to do good. The first
Of these has been successfully accom-
plished. 1t consists of a daily mail to
Douglas. The second of these is to in
crease the importance Of the weather bu-
reau In Wyoming. III a letter sent by
Gen. Greedy, lhieI signal officer. sent to
Senator Warren, it is stated that the
Cheyenne flee is now better supplied
with instruments than much larger offices,
New Haven, Conn for instance. Gen.
Greedy expresses a willingness to supply
responsible persons in Wyoming who will
attend to the business with Instruments
to secure daily weather reports for trans
mission to the central OF &c at Cheyenne.
On the question of making weather fore
casts for Wyoming he says that it Is now
impossible, as there is only one nan to
make forecasts for the whole country and
his labors cannot now be increased. 1t is
probable, however, that in July the de-
partment of agriculture may add another
man, in which event Wyoming will not
be overlooked.

A recent dispatch from Olympia, Ore,
to The Portland Oregonian Y
There was quite a touching scene en-
acted in the house this afternoon. Rep
r~esentative PARCEL, Of King county, is a
coal miner employed in the Franklin
mines, and was elected to represent the
labOring element. He introduced a bill
some time ago providing for the pay
ment Of laborers with cash at stated pc
RODS. In advocating his measure Par
cell, while not a fluent talker by any
means, displayed great earnestness. Fl
nally he went to pieces completely, and
sank into his seat overcome. After 81
leutly weeping for a few moments he
again took the floor. and fought against
the bill going back to the committee on
labor and labor statistics, claiming they
were trying to kill it.. The speakers
earnestness Won for his bill several
friends, and it was ultimately referred
to the judiciary committee.

Side by side il the accounts Of mining
disasters there IF something that makes
the hear sink With horror aud some
thing that makes it glad with a proud
respect for human feeling at its best.
The life of the coal miners at best is
hard, uucompromising toll. 1t makes
existence a daily treadmill. The cheer
fulness which goes with some occupa-
tons in the field Of physical labor seems
to be lacking in the miners. Delving
in the bowels of the earth, where no ray
Of sunlight al penetrate, and where
even the Pickering candle which lights
the gloomy hole is itself a menace to
life, the miner picks his living and earns
s~ustenance for his wife and children in
the hardest way.
Then there is the unspeakable horror
Of explosions, OF ]suifocation from fire,
or water, or earth; for in mining dis
asters all the elements seem TO rise
against the grimy tOiler. But in these
crises the true, warm hearts of his fellow
workers show the exquisite fiber of their
humanity.
The rescue at Jeanesville is a beauti-
full example of this. For nineteen days
miners were held in a living tomb, an
able to do a thing except wait and suffer.
But their brethren were digging their
way to them, working in relays uure-
mittingly, though with no greater hope
than that Of rescuing the bodies Of the
eutombed. Is there any human heart Sc
insensible as not to feel the beauty. the
pathos of this Such men are a glory to
their race.-New York Evening World.

A LonEshorsmnn's Sense of Mndrsty.
"You would hardly believe what silly
ideas some rough, uneducated men have
about propriety," said the nurse, as she
smoothed out the pillow and rearranged
the bed covers with n g~entleness and 4
dexterity that recalled to the patient the
ministering hand of a mother to her sick
boy. Il recollect nursing a big long
shoreman when l was in the hospital,
who had an idea of chivalry which, mis-
taken and n-onsensical though it was,
yet was refreshing in one of his class.
He had been in some fight in a shop near
the river, and had received a number of
bad wounds. His antagonist had cut
right for his heart, and had made three
or four gaping slashes in his chest.

days, and then turned the task over to

name was jackson, the next day, and

Bellamy, civil engineer Of Laramie, came
in on today's stage on his way to Gold
Hill where he goes to look up a stamp
mill site for Laramie parties. He says
that the indications point to a stamp mill
at Gold hill within a stort time. He also
brings the intelligence Of the formation of
the Gold Hill Mining company, COMPOSED
of prominent Rock Springs aud Laramie
citizens. Rumor has it that still another
big mining company composed OF some Of
the solid men of Laramie and Denver 10
which Bolthoff & Hendrie, heavy dealers
in mining supplies in Denver, will doubtless
take a hand.
St. Patrick's day was celebrated here
by a grand ball and supper. the latter Of
which was furnished in the new dining
room of the Gold Hill house. There was
a large attendance and a most enjoyable
time was had. f ]. Lewis, Mr.. Pontrie,

There are some vices which possess
what may be called a respectable ex-
terror; they succeed occasionally in Dor
rowing the garments of some neighbor-
ing virtue and passing themselves off as
relations of his. Even when their char
acter as faults cannot be denied, people
are found to palliate them and minimize
their evil tendency. Among such sins
are envy, jealousy, pride and bad tenn
per. To say that such a one has rather
q hasty temper, or that he is difficult to
ge. on with, or that he is too fond Of
having his OWL way, is hardly, in the
opinion of many people, to say anything
really to his discredit; yet, when we
analyze that disposition of mind which
is commonly called bad temper we
shall find that it is neither more nor less
than the malignant desire of making
othe- people suffer pain. Even in the
case of a hot" or hasty temper, this is
true. No one would use angry words TO
another if he did not mean that they
should wound, and intend TO relieve his
angry feelings by the suffering they may
cause.-Chambers' Journal.

Incoming Texns CattIe.


From the most reliable information OBJ
tainable we estimate that the shipments
north this year from Texas, New
Mexico and Arizona will be about the
same IN numbers as last season. Perhaps
an increase of 10. 600, or in round num-
beers 100. 900 head. Up to date we can
count purchases of forty odd thousand
head made by northern ranchmen, includ.
ing those bought by the Home Land &
Cattle company. Several BUYERS are now
in the south and others will be in the
field later on. Beet prices in Chicago
from now to May l will largely influence
dealers and curtail or enlarge purchases as
the values advance or recede. At present
inquiries are quite numerous and a very
little more advance will greatly increase
the number of deals.

The cane had a history before it ever
