He Locates oil Wells in His Dreams.
Butler county has an "oil smeller"
who a give points to persons who
bring out the power of the hazel rod.
Some months ago Cunningham s. Co.
were drilling a well on the farm of Ira
Stauffer. One night while the well was
drilling Casper Keichner, crippled jew
eler of Z~elienople, dreamed that the well
was dry, and in the same vision he saw
a spot on the farm of John Shriver,
near the Stauffer farm, where a well
was flowing 1000 barrels per day.
Keichner related his dream to Cum
ningham g. Co., but a smile was all he
got for his trouble. When the well on
the Stauffer farm was completed it was
a first class duster. In their adversely
the owners of the well went to Keichner
and asked him to show them the spot on
the Shriver farm where in his dream he
had seen the coveted 1000 barrel well.
He accompanied them to the place and
a well was started on the spot. A few
weeks ago the pay streak was reached,
h well actually flowed 1000 barrels a
day and the place is the richest oil farm
in Butler county today.-Pittsburg Cor.

A very aged lady, Mime. Guzman, who
died on the 30th of June last in Pau,
was deeply interested, especially during
her last years, in the descriptions of the
planet Mars and the theoretical posi-
bility of communication between our
planet and the neighbor worlds. Further
more, expressing in her will a desire
peculiarly astronomical, she made the
following legacy:
A prize of 100, 900 francs is ~bequeathed
to the Institute of France (science sec
tion) for the person, no matter of what
nationality, who shall discover within
ten years from the present time a means
of communicating with a star planet or
otherwise) and of receiving a reply.
The testatrix has especially in view
the planet Mars, upon which the atten-
ton and investigation of savants has
been directed already. If the Institute
of France does not accept the legacy it
will pass to the Institute of Milan, and
in case of a new refusal to the Institute
of New York.-Cor. New York Herald.

How II Husband Shoald BE Regarded.
At a recent meeting of Sorosis, at
which the subject of Husbands" was
discussed, Mrs. Herrick attributed the
failure of marital happiness to girls be-
ing taught to expect too much happi-
ness from marriage, and that love is its
only essential by romances, poetry, songs
and tradition. But, while not belittling
love, she claimed that respect based
upon superior qualities; esteem for those
attributes that would make the wife de-
sire the husband as a friend if she could
not have him for a husband; common
sense, which teaches her that a faulty
woman need not expect a perfect hus-
band, and great patience-"that passion
of noble souls"-are quite as essential
elements in the domestic bliss.
She cautioned the wife against holding
up her soul to her husband always with
q thorn in it. Men cannot understand
intangible griefs and unrest. She also
said that one of the first lessons a wife
has to learn is that her husband has q
right to his own individuality, and that,
while she can inspire him to greater
achievement in a work for which he has
a bias, she cannot, as she may fondly
dream, mold his character, and she
wouldn't respect him if she could.
Girls should be taught that marriage
is not the gateway of heaven, and that
even at this Eden the angel stands with
the flaming sword to turn back souls that
seek an earthly paradise. Women should
know their lovers so well that marriage
can bring no great disappointments.
Marriage is not a match made in Heaven,
but an earthly union founded on mutual
respect, over which the love hat made
the bond possible sheds a tender infiu-
ence.-New York Sun.

BOLD, BAD BURGLARS.
Several Young Boys Rob the kickIe
Plate Saloon.
Half of Them Escape, the Others
Are Captured.
Who They Are and What They Did
After the Robbery.

The young fellows who burglarized the
Nickle Plate saloon, are considerably scat

time behind the grim bars of the city cal
aboose, others are out on bond, and still
Others of the gang have disappeared. leav-
ing their companions in crime to hoe
their row alone.
About fifteen boys were engaged IN tn g
burglary, only seven of whom were cap
tured BY the officers. These areW allace Tate,
William Edwards. Harry Graham, Ray
Plumb, Wallace Anderson and William
Mor6tt. Graham, Tate and Morftt are
out on bonds.
The thieves mades an entrance through
the rear door OF the building. The burg
larry was evidently a premeditated affair.
1t took place at a dead hour of the night,
and was worked Systematically. There
are no resident or business houses used
near the Nickle Plate saloon and the
burglars had little fear hat they would
be disturbed. They made their way into
the saloon and then lighting some
matches. each one helped himself to any
thing that was found loose.
The MCKEE Plate has been closed for
some time. but it was arranged IN a good
business manner when it was closed and
belonged 10 Idelman Bros. A large
quantity of WHISTLES. wines. cigars, and
in short almost every article found in a

the stock yards and danced as If they had

the burglary early yesterday morning and
went out in search OF the young burglars.
They arrested the boys whose names are
given above. The others are spotted and
it is thought they will be pulled today.
The trial of those already captured will
probably take place today. 1t Is said an
object lesson will be given other young
sters similarly disposed to roguery, in the
establishment administered to these fellows
when their case comes up in the police
court.

General Supt. Bancroft and Supt. Wur-
tele were in the formers special car today
on No. 8 en- route east. When the train
arrived here MIR. Bancroft walked into
Chief Train Dispatcher Stewards office
and informed him that he was to report
at Salt Lake City on Feb. l to succeed j.
A. Lepport as trainmaster and chief dis
patcher of the Utah Central, which in
cludes the Garfield Beach line and down
to Ogden. THIS promotion was not en-
tirely a surprise to Mr.. Stewart. rs he
had understood that something might oc-
cur in the. near future. Mr.. Stewart has
been at Laramie for three years. Two
years ago last October he was promoted
to chief dispatcher, Previous to that he
was dispatcher at Rawlins for a year. He
is an expert in this line. In all probability
Hon. f. T. Duffy, the well known old
time and reliable dispatcher. will be pro-
NOTED to the position OF chief here.

Not long ago, when one of the great
through western trains left New York
city, a man and a woman, aged about
eighty, got on the cars. They were ac-
companied by a younger man, who ap-
peared to be their son, who got their
tickets to some place in Nebraska, put
them on the cars and left them. Shortly
after passing Poughkeepsie the old lady
was taken i'll. This drew around them
sympathizers, and upon inquiry it was
found that they had but a very indefi-
nate idea of the journey before them, and
that they had only a dollar and some
cents in money between them.
The passengers raised a collection
which furnished them with a berth in
n of the sleeping cars to Chicago an
seven dollars in money. 1t was eviderf.
from their actions that neither of them
had ever seen a drawing room or sleep
ing car before, and the luxury and COM
fort was something entirely outside of
their experience. They went on, the
picture of content, and it is to be hoped
reached their destination in safety

ARRESTED in DENVER.
The Confidence Man Who Operated
IN Wyoming Now IN Jail.

About two weeks ago Chief Howe OF
Denver received letters from Chief Young
OF Salt Lake and Sheriff Kelley Of
Cheyenne, giving a description Of Charles
White and asking that a lookout be kept
for him, as he was supposed to be in
that vicinity. AT both those cities
White is charged with forgeries. About
the time these letters were received com
plants began to come in that a mar
representing himself to be a deputy
sheriff, dressing well and driving a team,
was passing fraudulent checks on hotel
men. livery stable proprietors and others
in various parts of Denver. AS this was
exactly the modus operdndi of White. the
police at once suspected that the man
wanted In Utah and Wyoming was in
their midst. Shrewd detectives were
started on his trail, and on Sunday he
was arrested while hiring a team at a
livery stable.
White. when searched, was found to be
we'll armed, having a knife and revolver,
with a pocket full of cartridges. On his
person was also found two checks, sup
posed to be fraudulent, one for $l14 drawn
on paper OF the First National bank of
Rawlins, Wyo.. payable to James b.
Carry and signed 'The Woodruff Cattle
Company, per james R. Layman, Man
ager." The other was on a blank of the

A class of persons who have suffered
greatly by reason of the bomb throwing
tragedy have hitherto escaped the notice
of the press. Mr.. Sage was doing a
large business in options or puts and
calls, spreads and straddles. He was
not so greatly absorbed in this speciality
as he was III 1888. He was caught in
the panic of that year and lost a good
since hen has been more conservative
than he was before. Still, this business
has amounted to a good many thousand
dollars some days and has afforded a
number of men an opportunity of get
ting a living.
These men + typical Wall street
creatures. You see them hustling here
and there, buttonholing men and whis-
pering in their ears. They are ~tireless.
They know everybody who is likely to
taxi a little fier. Sometimes as many
as a score or more of them used to go to
Russell Sage every day and ask him
what he would charge for options on va
rious stocks and securities. Having got
Sage's terms, they secured the streets,
protesting to give tips, and in the course
of q week would bring in many Gus
toners to Sage. Their usual commission
was o~ne-eighth of l per cent, and the
smartest of them could make from ten
to twenty dollars a day.
They brought Sage a great deal Of
business first and last. But these men
have been sad eyed enough since the ex-
plosion. This part of Sage's business
life is ended as much as though he had
been killed on that day, and it is a ser
GUS question whether he will ever re-
sumo it. This has thrown these scouts
and commission agents upon their up

Out in the bay stands the dear old

Nipsic. 1t is to be hoped that both these
historic ships may soon be repaired. All
the world associates the Hartford with
the exploits at Mobile bay, but besides
this interesting fact she is one of the
few remaining and n of the most
beautiful of her type. Hers is indeed
a heart of oak. She is not dead, "as an
old sailor lately said with a sigh. She
only sleeps.
The Nipsic Is still stanch and sound.

MANY who called at the house we're a

were many very affecting scenes. The
floral tributes were beautiful. Among
them was q pillow of white roses, hya-
cinths, sweet elysium and Gala lilies,
across which in purple buds was the
name ALBERT. 1t was from the boys in
the neighborhood. The members of his
class at school sem a beautiful anchor OF

st. Marks sent a handsome bouquet Of
roses and Gala lilies.

friends of the family, many of whom had

BEDLAM BROKE LOOSE.
Two Crazy Prisoners Create ande-
monium IN the Court House.

Laramie Republican,
Bedlam reigned supreme for several
hours this morning at the court house.
Old mar Cleve and the crazy Frenchmsn
who got off on No. 8 on Sunday were the
cause. Both men are suffering from de-
mentia in the most aggravated form, and
their blood curdhng shrieks resounded
through the building from top to bottom,
making 1t anything but pleasant for the
county officials, while Mrs. Yund was
nearly frantic by the soul piercing din.
Cleve presents a very pitlful appear
ance and the Frenchman is like a Gagged
lion, both in strength and fury. This
afternoon Sheriff Yund, with the assist
ance ofsn interpreter, attempted to pur-
suade the latter to take the train east. He
started down town quietly enough, but be-
fore going a block he insisted on return
ing and paying the sheriff for his board.

show that his name is Camille Rogers OF
San Francisco, and that he was on his
way TO Paris when his present misfortune
happened to him. He had $34 in his
pocket and a ticket to New York city.
Sheriff Yund has autographed to San
Francisco to friends of the man.

alone responsible for Rogers insanity, as
a letter written to him about one week
age shows that he was then undoubtedly in

used her house for ten months as u pri-

had about fifty patients, and there wero
no fewer than forty children born alive
In the house, not one of them being per-
mitted TO live. Beal either chloroformed
