Ii the suggestion that President

unfortunate" as the News and Cour
1er says, its comment on the suggcs

took hold OF the Presidents political
behavior towards the South by the
throat, and shook, and shook till it
tore its hold out, and then vomitcd

be invited. We suspect he would bc
too busy to accept. If he should
come he would have more sense, thon
to bring ny.of his Objectionable sub.
alterns. He is President of the whole
country, and it might be q great pub
lie benefit to separate him for a few
days from the Hoars, Hawleys,
Quay's, Forakers, Lodges, Clarksons
and Reeds, and let him shake hands
and be sociable with South Carolin-
ians. Seeing the world might broad

who has cultivated our acquaintance
has l.een greatly toned down. We
might improve the President socially
very much without hurting ourselves
IN the least.

however, and they have written to know
about the matter. At the meeting Of

Last February a representative OF TIE
LEADER made a trip to Gold Hill for the
purpose Of seeing what there was in the
camp. 1t was expected that the expenses
OF the trip would be more than could be
got out OF 1t, but the idea was that if the
prospects we're good an Indirect benefit
would be derived from letting the world
know OF 1t. The LEADER mar was so
favorably Impressed with what he saw
that he at once interested some of his
trlepds, and small interests were pur'
chased 10 the new camp.
Later on other Cheyenne men became
Interested and more interests were pur'
chased. The Interest in the new camp
mas continued to grow. A stock company
known as the Gold HUI Consolidated
Hlning company has been organized and
the Articles ot incorporation have been
med with the secretary OF state. The
othcerS oil the company are: President,

attracted a great deal OF attention in and
outside of the medical profession. One
of DR. Bothwelrs children was i'll and re
took it on his knee to give it some
medicine. He held the cork Of the
medicine bottle between his teeth when
the child made some remark that caused
the doctor to laugh. The cork slipped
into lis mouth and down his throat. The
doctor tried TO remove it with his finger,
but only succeeded in p=shing it farther
down. The cork finally lodged at the
entrance of the left bronchial tube. Alter
recovering from his ft Of coughing the
doctor thought nothing of the matter.
The following day. Sunday, he preached
as usual. On Monday of last week he
began to suffer a good deal OF incon-
venience and his physician was called in.
Three unsuccessful operations we're per

Deputy Marshal Tom Smith has re-
turned from the territory and tells of a
thrilling experience of his a few nights
ago. He and Deputy Marshal Booker
were driving across the prairie between
midnight and day. In crossing a ditch
Booker, who was driving, pitched head
first over the dashboard on the ground.
The horses became frightened and ran.
Smith was in the buggy helpless, as the
lines had fallen outside. He had no
knowledge Of the country and did not
know what moment he would go over a
precipice or into a barbed wire. He was
afraid to jump lest he should break his
neck or a limb. So he leveled his Win
chester and began firing at the horses,
and three or four shots brought them
down. The horses cost Smith $3.50 apiece,
but he got the man he started after
Dallas News.
