Now why did these English gold cwn-

our esteemed neighbor does now, make
light of the fact that "the silver dollar
was not a thing to coin and use in those
days"
Notwithstanding the fact that at that
time silver was undervalued at the

It matters not one whit how many or

A SCHOOL OF MINES.

Everyone interested in the real ad-
vancement of our state cannot but en-
dorse the splendid and most effective
work lone by F. W. Mondell in the
last session Of congress. Among the
various measures for the benefit of the
state which he forwarded, we might
mention his bill making an %appropria-
ton for a school of mines in connec-
terms of this bill. which will undoubt-
eddy be passed at the next session, $15,-
900 is appropriated the first year to es-
tablish and sustain a school of mines.
The appropriation is to be increased
81 900 annually until the SUN of s25,-
900 is reached, when it is to be con-
tinued at that amount. 1t is needless
to state the great value to our state
which would follow the establishment
Of such a school with ample facilities
for testing and a%ssaying our ores, de-
vising the best means of their treat
ment. studying the character and for
nations of u state. and various 9TH
err matters that would result from such
a school. Every thinking person can
see that this Is one of the most import
ant steps that could be taken to de-
velop u state. A vote for Mondell
will be a vote for the development Of
our state.-Newcastle News-Journal.

BROKE UP THE MEETING.
Yale Students Give Their College Yell
Till Bryan Subsidies.

New Haven, Conn, Sept. 24.-Yale
students delayed the opening of Mr..
Bryan's speech on the green here by at
least Is minutes. A crowd of the col
legians, 500 or more strong, gathered
in the assemblage of 10000 persons,
and when Mr.. Bryan arose and waved
his hands for quiet. the Yale men broke
out into their full college cheer. begin
ming with the frog chorus of "Aristo-
phanesk," following the three long
Yales. nine rahs. a Yale and Mckinley.
Repeatedly did the students break
forth into this cheer, and it was i'm
possible for the nominee t speak.
After order was restored. Mr.. Bryan
started to speak. but the students
would not desist. Whenever the speak
er made a point pleasing t o the crowd
of symrathizers they yelled, but the
Yale students rounded out the yell with
their long cheer. finishing with Nc
Kinley," as q climax. Finally a detail
of mounted police quieted the exuber-
ant Yale students.
The New Haven Bryan meeting was
prematurely broken up by a disorder
in which Yale students played a large
part. Mr.. Bryan finally refused to
speak further and the vast crowd dis
persed. The students persisted in in
terrupting and upon one occasion while
Bryan was endeavoring to obtain quiet
a band doing escort duty to a military
parade on the ground near by. burst
forth with music. Mr.. Bryan threw up
his hands and refused to continue.

EPISCOPAL DIOCESE.
BEGINS IT'S ANNUAL SESSION AT
CHEYENNE YESTER-
DAY.
The Convocation Called to Order BY
Bishop Talbot Who Delivers a
Highly Entertaining Address
Some Valuable Papers Are Read
and Much Good Work Being Done.

A special from Cheyenne last even
ing says: AT today's session of the
Episcopal c~onvocation of the diocese of
Wyoming a good attendance was had
and much interest manifested in the
work. At the morning session the Or
g%anization was perfected and the COM
mittees appointed. Excellent papers
on church work were read by Joseph
Hy Dodson, missionary at Douglas and
Lusk, subject: The Problem of the
Choir in Mission Stations" and Dean
Mallett of Laramie, subject: THE
Financial Problem. or How Best to
Raise Money for Parish Purposes
This afternoon Rev. DR.. Huntington of
Saratoga addressed the meeting on
How to Prepare a Glass for Confrma-
ton" An interesting feature of the
services were the remarks made by able
takers after the reading Of each paper.
The annual address delivered by
Bishop Talbot was one OF the most
pleasant features of the proceedings
and was listened to by a large congre-
cation. In referring to the bishops
talk, the Cheyenne Tribune says:
The address was a dissertation on
the work of the diocese in the last year
and of the prospects Of the future. He
said that this was the first convoca-
ton held since the apportionment Of
che present diocese. 1t is hard to de-
fend.' said the bishop. such a grouping
of states in one diocese, as we formerly
had and the only explanation of such
A proceeding is hat it was planned by
eastern bishops, most of whom were
utterly unfamiliar with the territory
On account Of the great area, the bish-
op said, he hoped that the general con-
vention of 1898 would again divide the
diocese. Bishop Talbot commented on
the changes which had taken place
during the last year and spoke feeling
ly of the late dean of Laramie, the Rev.
Mr.. Parnell. He told of the progress
that had been made ID the different
towns of the state and made special
mention of the work in Laramie. One
Of the interesting parts of the address
was the description of the work among
the Shoshone and Arapahoe Indians.
The latter tribe has a native mission
airy who revels in luxury on a salary |
of SIS a month, and through the result
of whose efforts the Indians are build
ing a church. The bishop stated that
he had 10 young men in the east study
ing in the different theological schools
and that three of them would graduate
this year. 1t has been his plan, he said
to pick out young men especially fitted
for the work and send them east to be
educated. The bishop reported having
received splendid news from the east,to
the effect that the anticipated
deficit of the board of missions had
been met and hat the board would
close the year without owing a cent.
The bishop concluded his address by
a plan by which the diocese
might become self-supporting."

ABSOLUTELY PURE
REV. NICHOLS FLOP.

Rev. NJ. Nichols, Of Sundance. has
written an open letter in which he de-
clares his opposition to republicanism
and in favor Of Bryan.
Concerning Mr.. Nichols flop, the
Sundance Monitor, which is edited by
the gentleman's s%on-in-law. says:
He is our fa~ther-in-law, and ou
readers will understand that 1t is a
painful duty for us to oppose him, po-
litically, in the present campaign. We
will e%ndeavor to make the best Of the
situation. however, and in this case. as
in Others, will strive to be fair and hon
est with our opponent.
THE Monitor has the highest re-
spect for ones honest opinion although
it be in direct opposition to our own.
In the case of Mr.. Nichols flop we do
not feel that he is sincere in his ad-
vocacy of the free coinage of silver.
There is nothing in his actions or in
his letter to convince any. n thai he
is justified in boiling the republican
ticket at this time. Those who are best
acquainted with Mr.. Nichols n his
past political record are not surprised
at his recent move, because he has on
previous occasions threatened to flop.
1t is reasonable, therefore, to believe
that he has made this change for re-
venge or on account Of a promise Of po-
litical pie"
1t is said that Mr.. Nichols, who Is a
lawyer by profession, and practices
preaching on the side, wanted the nom
ination for county attorney of Crook
county, and when the republicans re-
fused to give 1t to him he turned on the
party for revenge.

New York. Sept. 2i.-William J.
Bryan left this city to enter upon his
tour of the New England states at 1890
o'clock. The program had been chang
ed, and the crowds hat gathered about
the Fortieth street station expecting to
see Mr.. Bryan as he took the s o'clock
train eastward suffered a disappoint-
ment. AT the train to meet Mr.. Bryan
were committees from New Haven.
Nantucket and Bridgeport. The sched-
ule provided for the arrival of Mr.. Bry-
an and his party at Stamford at 1885,
when the democratic presidential NOM
inee was to make a brief speech. do
ing the same at South Norwalk. where
the train was due at HOS. At Bridge
port a stop of an hour is to be made
and there is a likelihood that Mr.. Bry-
an will speak at length. New Haven
will be reached. barring accident, at 1
p. m.and there four hours will be spent.
