Hon. Frank Ball of our city, re-
ceived a telegram from Clarksville,
Texas, last night, announcing the
death of his sister, Mrs. ]. d. Var
nell. The deceased was known to
many here as Miss Carrie Ball, and
her death will be deplored by many
throughout Bowie county, where
she was well known. We offer our
sympathy to the brothers and sis
ters of this departed estimable lady.

city that Jim billiard is still the
choice of the people, and that they
cannot be switched off for Jack

that matter. Let every one who
does not want to throw his vote
away, stick to James T. billiard, and
the entire Democratic ticket. 1t is
a two times winner, and you can
stick your pin down on this fact.

1t Is safe to say that few communi-
ties in the world have been more seri-
'ously injured by the ruinous policy of
the present administration, and the
bull-headed, vindective free wool policy
of Cleveland than Natrona county. 1t
has been brought to the notice Of every
resident of this community in a manner
10 forcible and convincing as to leave
not the least shadow of a doubt as to
where to place the blame. During
Cleveland's administration the WOOL
growers of this section, who market at
Casper, have lost v $500, OO0-eight
hundred Thousand dollars-in the de-
probation of wool and sheep. Cleve,
lands free wool policy is directly re,
%sponsible for this, and there is no gain
saying 1t. How can any citizen OF this
country encourage by his vote an ad-
ministration which strikes down our
greatest industry? What excuse can
be offered for supporting a party which
has cut our community $500, 900, and
the nation many millions, in four
years?-Caeper Tribune,
, 1896-04-20


The dispatches tell us what a won
derful trade Great Britain has had
this past year. The surplus is reckon
ed at $38, 000, 900, and England herself
cannot explain 1t. We think a part Of
1t can be explained. The increase OF
her exports to the United States of
WOODEN yarns and fabrics alone last
year amounted to $31. 200. 900. Then We
suspect that her income tax was great
ly enlarged by speculation in South
African stocks last year. Then her rich
men have to report their dividends and
interest. and the United States contrl-
buted to that last year $3.50, 900, 900, to
say nothing Of the rest Of the world.
There is a beauty in England's meth,
DDS. The remarkable fact is always ap-
parent that in years whsh Great Bri,
tain trades at an immense profit all the
nations that trade with her are in the
doldrums.-Salt Lake Tribune.

A STRONG ENDORSEMENT.

The overwhelming endorsement CIV
en- by the republicans Of Cheyenne at
last nights primaries to our townsman
Willis Van Devanter, is quite remark
able in its way. A more marked COM
pliment has seldom, II ever, been re-
ceived by any republican in this coun-
ty. That he has well merited this en-
phatic expression of confidence and es-
TEEN by his able and untiring efforts
for the success of the party, no n will
gainsay. Mr.. Van Devanter is not an
ONCE seeker in any sense Of the term,
but he is always ready to give his SER
vices to the party and the promotion Of
its principles. 1t is believed here that
he could render most valuable aid as q
member of the national republican
committee and for that reason the re-
publicans Of Laramie county give him
their hearty endorsement and ask the
same from those counties which have
not already expressed a desire that he
b. chosen to that responsible and i'm
poftant position.-Sun-Leader.

franklin attached his pointed rod-a
sharp wire, about a foot long-and pro-
vided himself with a silk ribbon and a
key; the ribbon, to fasten to the string
after he had raised the kite, as some
possible protection-how much he did
not know-against the lightning enter

to the junction Of the ribbon and string
to serve as a conductor from which he

electrical conduction or resistance, now
so familiar, were lot even suspected.
Who could predict hal the lightning
would obey any law? Besides, he had
produced tremendous shocks with his
Leyden jars in series, and had killed
birds with them. More than that, he
had been terribly shocked himself by
the same means-stunned into insensl,

All the world knows what happened.
The kite scared up into the black cloud,
while the philosopher stood calmly In
the drenching rain watching the string,
until finally he saw the little ibers OF
the hemp raise themselves. Then, with,
out a tremor, he touched his knuckle to
the key-and lived. For the spark
cracked and leaped to his finger as
harmlessly as did that from his old
familiar electrical machine, and allow.

A highwayman, named Boulter, who
was hanged in 177S. once met a young
woman weeping as he was riding on
horseback. Learning that her distress
was caused by the presence of a credi-
tor and a bailiff in a neighboring house
to take her husband to prison for a
debt OF 30 guineas, the highwayman
gave her money to pay the debt. Then
when the creditor came along the road,
he took back the 80 guineas and rode
off. much pleased with his inexpensive
charity. On another occasion this
same highwayman was "bluffed" by an
imperious, rough nobleman, who was
also deaf. Lord O., the nobleman.
while travelling in his p~ost-chaise. was
reused from a nap by the stopping OF
the carriage. Seeing a man on horse
back, pistol in hand. the nobleman
angrily asked: What do you want?"
Money, my lord" answered the man.
What money? Are you the rascal who
has just awoke me SO SUDDENLY" BE
quick. my lord! I've no time to lose;
hand over your purse" my purse!
You shall not have it. You carry on a
fine trade, don't you?" Lord o. then
quietly pulled out a full purse, and with
his finger and thumb deliberately took
out three guineas, which he handed to
~highwayman. saying. There. that's
enough for a scoundrel like you. l hope
I may live to see you hanged" The
robber was so surprised by the noble
mans Indifference that he did not in,

How to Have Pretty Lips.

Though very red lips do not follow us
into old age, we can at least keep them
fresh and attractive looking all our
lives To do this great care must be
taken to remain in perfect health and
also to attend to any little ailment of
the lips as soon as it is noticed. Too
much sitting over the fire and too little
outdoor exercise are fatal tJ the beauty
of the lips.
Very pale colored lips, of course,
show that the possessor is much out of
health, usually suffering from bloodless-
ness. Strong iron tonics should be taken,
plenty of milk drunk and outdoor exer-
else freely INDUCED in. The diet should
be generous, and the rooms we 1.-Two in
and sleep in should be most carefully
ventilated by night as well as by day.
As the health improves the color will
return to the lips
The lips should also never be rubbed
with strong scent, such as eau de cologne
or vinegar or lemon. Friction is also
very bad for their well being. Lips may
only be pale pink (red lips are consti-
tutionaD, but if they arc smooth and
soft they will look attractive.

Dinera Out.

Some persons are perpetually invited
out to dine, not because they give many
dinners in return, but because they are
recognized as good dinner guests. They
are generally provided with plenty of
light small talk and the gossip of the
day, are pleasant, popular and gifted
with that tact which is one of the rar-
est, as it is one Of the most valuable, of
possessions. There are others who must
DO asked as duty, on account Of the
dinners they themselves give and who
vex the righteous soul Of a hostess as
often as she has to include their names
among the list Of her guests. She knows
very we'll that their mere presence will
call for a mighty effort to keep the
whole dinner from being what has been
appropriately call "a FROST" and that
they will probably outweigh all her
efforts

How the Chinese Identity Criminals.

The method takon by the Chinese to
identify their important criminals is to
take an impression of the balls of their
thumbs. This is done by pressing the
thumb on slab covered with a film of
printers ink, and then pressing it on
piece of white paper. Their idea is that
all arts of the features may change, but
the thumb never can, and they say that
their method affords much more easy
and certain means of identification than
our plan of taking the criminals por-
trait.
