Schaefer's Right Wrist Broken.

Jake Schaefer's match with George Slosson
has fallen through by reason of serious acct
dent which befell The Wizard" yesterday in
Chicago, by which the bones of his right wrist
were fractured. Schaefer was returning with
his wife from the home Of friend, when he
slipped on the icy pavement. and in putting
out his hand to save himself received the en-
tire weight of his body on the right wrist. Two
OF the smaller bones snapped like pipestems.
and 1t is the opinion OF the surgeon who at
tended him that the injury is permanent one.
in which event The Wizard will be compelled
to retire forever from the field of billiards.
Should the injury. however, be only temporary.
il will be months before he RECEIVERS the use of
his right hand, and at that the delicate touch
when nursing the worries, which has made Jake
famous the world over. will be forever de-
slowed.
The doctor last evening expressed the belief that
the suppleness Of The Wizards Wrist" would
not be impaired by the accident. II the small
bones mended properly he might again handle
the cue. But for weeks, perhaps months to
come. Schaefer will be unable to use his hand.

ecredit for what he has DONE But when
such fulsome laudation is INDUCED in by
partisan who takes occasion in it to de-
preciate his successor, we feel inclined to
look into the matter little.
We are told that the speech he made on
his return to Indiana, was as graceful as
a beautiful painting,'' and that the
''whole speech was complete Also
that ''General Harrison has no equal in
our country for delivering impromptu
speeches. The following is given by his
adorer as sample OF this perfection:
left you with but one certainty, and I
return with that certainty, that had no
other motive in my heart than the honor
of the flag, the sacredness of the consti-
tuition and the prosperity of all our
people.
We hope that none Of the shoolboys Of
this city will be led by the eulogium on
this sentence to copy after its loose style
and imperfect expression Of the speakers
meaning. In the first place he certainly
had some other certainty" than one
''motive,'' both when he left and when
he returned. In the second place neither
Of the things he mentioned is "motive"
of any kind. In the third place the whole
sentiment is buncombe instead Of patriot
ism, and the sentence 50 highly lauded,
as it stands is not even common sense.
The flaws which are 50 perceptible in
the language quoted would not have
drawn any comment of ours but for the
reasons we have mentioned. And we can
say this OF Mr.. CLEVELAND. that if he is
not a model orator what he says is usually
to the point and not fiabby and tiighty
like the sentence selected above; that his
merit is more in his character than his
words, and that the place he occupies in
the public estimation has been reached
more by doing than by talking.

a fair speech for the occasion. But our

Hints to Sheep Men.

A new way of corralling sheep Is being
tried in Wyoming. The Lusk Herald
says that the HART Bros. well known
sheep men, think of adoptingit. Briefly
explained it is this:
The whole apparatus consists OF a steel
wagon with $50 yards of canvass 40 inches
wide, and iron stakes four and half feet
long, sharpened SO as to drive easily into
the ground and each fitted with a guy
chain with an iron pin at the end. The
stakes are to be driven into the ground
ten feet apart, forming circle 100 feet
in diameter. The canvass, which is run
upon rope in sections Of thirty feet, is
to be fastened to these stakes and fastened
end to end. a secure corral is The re-
suit.
In case OF stampede the pressure
would pull up the stakes and let the can
vass wall down so that the sheep would
not pile up and smother, but run over the
canvass, which would not damage it ma
terially An alarm could be so arranged
that in case of the fall of the canvass the
herder, who would be at hand in the
wagon at night. could get at once to the
sheep.
1t Is claimed that two men can put up
such corral in less than an hour. With
such security for the doek the shepherds
could take their rest at night without
fear. The cost would soon be returned in
the savings from loss which this plan
would maintain.
This is worthy the attention of our
Utah sheepmen. They may take notes
from it which will be Of service to them,
even if they do not have steel wagon or
any other than the ordinary kind. For
corralling sheep at night. or when neces-
sary during the day, it would seem that
this canvass wall and iron stakes would
be just what is wanted, and the whole
concern could be packed up and made
easily portable.
We notice that in Colorado steady
business is being followed in the fatten-
ing Of sheep for the market. Lucerne is
fed TO them and it has proven valuable
for the purpose. Lucerne, or alfalfa,
whichever you please to call it, is good
feed for animals OF all kinds, and as it
grows finely in this region and is very
plentiful there is no reason why it should
not be utilized here for making mutton.
In Laramie county, Colorado, quite a
number OF sheep owners are engaged in
this business and find it profitable to ship
the sheep to the east.
There is no business that is more Iucra-
tive than sheep-raising when it is attend
ed to properly and on business principles.
And there is none that is more risky when
placed in dishonest or careless or unskil-
full hands. Utah is adapted for this in
dustry, it has fourished in the past and
there is nothing to hinder its increased
value in the future.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1893-03-09

a similar odor and makes the new appeal
also unsatisfactory.
The city and county building is the
really pressing call on the county for
funds. 1t is desirable that it should be
completed. Some people are favorable to
moderate bonds for that special purpose,
but will not vote for the amount now de-
manded. There are others who think the
building can go on without bonding the
county at all, and that the doubt about
its expense caused by the fire. proohng
5quabble unsettles the matter. anyhow.
and therefore they are against the bonding
proposition altogether.
The only thing that is likely to operate
in favor of the proposition of the county
court is the apathy of large number of
taxpayers. That is not to be commended.
Every person liable to taxation in the
county has a pecuniary interest in this
measure and should exercise the right to
vote upon it, 'syes'' or "no." THE
HERALD urges the taxpayers to make a
strong showing at the polls on Saturday,
and to cast their ballots according to their
convictions of what is for the best interest
of themselves and the public. The
sentiments OF the Democratic county
committee and their invitation to the
voters to cast their ballots for the ssbonds
no, appear TO be shared by nearly all
classes of the community. Let tho vote
on Saturday be true indication of the
public opinion on this importantquestion.

Oil On Troubled Waters.

In a recent number Of the Revue Narl-
time, French shipping magazine, an ac-
count is given of a test made by Rear Adj
miral CAvEL1ER DE CUvERvILLE of the
efficiency OF ''casting oil upon the
troubled waters" This is no new ex-
pertinent but one more added to the list
OF successful attempts to ''calm the roar
ing sea.
During voyage in the NGiade, on the
North Atlantic ocean, a cyclone drove the
waves SO violently that the vessel was
threatened with destruction. He ordered
two coal sacks to be filed with tow
stepped in oil, one OF them to be suspen-
ded at the end of a spar SPAWNED to the
cathead, the other near the bridge. As
soon as the oil began to take effect no
more seas were shipped and the vessel
escaped without breaking a spar.
In view of a number Of testimonies of
this kind which have al the appearance
of truth, it seems strange that this pre-
ventive Of disaster at sea would not come
into general use on ship-board. But
whenever it is mentioned it is spoken OF
as an experiment and as though it will
scarcely be believed.
The oil, it is said, is best distributed
slowly, in large number of small drops.
Two sacks filled with five kilometres OF
tow holding FIVE litres of COLA or machine
oil each, are said to be sufficient to pro-
tect a vessel seventy-five metres in
length. In the case described the oil
had to be renewed every six hours
The theory advanced is that the effect
of the oil on the breakers is due to
''horizontal translation produced by the
wind, leaving the orbital motion or swell
unaffected That is how it is explained
by the London Nature. But whether it
is satisfactory or not, practice is more
than theory and that seems to have
demonstrated that the old adage is some
thing more than a "wise SAW or a
metaphorical proverb. A bag or two OF
cotton and oil might be useful oc-
casionally in an animated and stormy
session OF our city council or school
board.

Deeds. Not Words.

Our morning contemporary is e1trava-
CANT in it's eulogy OF ex-President HAIR
RIsoN, as it is usually with any kind of
a eulogy of the living or of the dead. In
this instance the daub of praise is ap-
piled for the purpose of giving back
handed slap at President CLEVELAND,
whose inaugural address is once more
brought forward BY way Of contrast.
Tt is not contended by the admirers and
supporters of the President that his
greatness consists IN speech-making, al
though he has been much sought after for
that purpose because he always says
something and says it we'll when he adj
dresses the public. Talk is not every
thing and if the ability to address the
public in good form is all that can be
said Of HARRIsoN's qualifications for the
executive office, it does not count fer very
much.
We do not wish to say 8 word in de-
probation OF the gentleman who has SO
respectfully flied the position that he has
just vacated. We would rather give him

About The County Bonds.

The sentiment appears to be growing
against the proposition OF the county
Court to issue bonds for $500 900. It is
thought the public debt is big enough
already, and though it is principally con-
tracted by the city, the city taxpayers are
those who would have to bear most of the
burden if the county should add to it.
With territorial bonded debt and city
booded debt, the liabilities now incurred
are more than financial prudence would
suggest, and there is very general feel
ing that we have gone far enough in that
direction.
The publication of the address by
the county court giving reasons
why the bonds should be issued, does
not seem to have the desired effect upon
the public. The figures given are rather
mixed and leave suspicion that the full
intent of the county court as to the dis
position Of the funds, if raised, is not dis
closed Then, the admission is made in
one part Of the address that the ten acre
lot, of which the poor farm is comprised,
is ample in extent though deficient in
buildings. But in another part it is
limited that, after all, the court ''would
not hesitate to purchase other suitable
grounds il certain conditions are found
to exist.
One Of the causes of failure Of the
former appeal to the taxpayers for per-
mission to bond the county was The faint
scent of ''job.' in the purchase OF
grounds for the poor farm which was
thought needless and only devised for a
personal purpose. The peculiar manner
in which the subject is now handled has
