The University of Wyoming has
started on what is surely its most pros
porous year. 1t has enrolled students
from every county in the state. with
the exception Of Big Horn and Crook
counties. 1t hopes to have students
from these counties before the term
closes. There are now nearly 1GO pu-
pills enrolled and many. or rather most
OF these, are new pupils. There are al.
30 some pupils here from Colorado and
Nebraska. The university is no longer
considered a Laramie" university. but
is acknowledged as a state university
by all Of the people of the state. This
state Of affairs is due largely to the
efforts Of Il able president. F. P.
Graves, who has done all in his power
to make this n state institution. Presi,
dent Graves said recently that when he
first took hold OF things at the univer>
sity he was told that he would never
be able to enroll a single pupil from
either Fremont or Laramie county,

HUMoRs OF THE KLONDIKE.

By the latest advices from the Klon-
dixie, it would seem that if starvation
is staring the miners in the face they
have not discovered it. The latest let
tiers to the Call give a graphic descrip-
ton Of the life at Dawson City. It
seems to be strikingly similar to that
depicted by Bret Harte in his earlier
name THE olden days. the golden
days, the days of 40" so cunningly de-
picted by Harte before he went to Lon
don and lost the cunning of his pen.
seem to have found a replica at Klon-
dixie. Tales are told of a certain Swift
hurst Of Bret Harte's stories. Swift
water Bill is apparently the kind of a
gambler who always wants to play
without limit. and, according to the
Klondike stories. he grew disguised at
the skinf1int farobanks in Dawson City.
and stated one of his own in order that
there might be no limit. He came out
$50. 1000 winner in a single evening. and
then sold his farobank for $4,000. One
of saltwater Bills peculiarities is the
wearing Of diamond rings on all the
fingers Of both hands. and he is said
to offer fabulous sums for every new
diamond that reaches Dawson City.
One Of the rivals of saltwater Bill
is Antonio, the Italian prince who
is apparently the Barney Barnato OF
the Klondike. The Italian prince pays
his housekeeper $500 a week pin-money
and she holds a written contract for
$4,000 annual stipend. The princes
housekeeper is called Miss Violet Ray,
mond, and she has a fad of her own,
like saltwater Bill. for diamonds. Miss
Raymond has bought up all the silks
and satins in Dawson City. vestured in
which, arrayed like one of Solomon's
lilies, she flaunts along the Dawson
b%oulevards. to the envy of the other
Klondike ladies, who, although they
have gold galore, can purchase neither
silks nor satins, for the reason that
Miss Raymond has them all. Antonio,
the Italian prince, is said to own three
claims on Ell Dorado creek and two
claims on Bonanza creek, and the ru-
NOR runs that his claims are made up
of half gravel and half coarse gold.
Altogether the humors of KIondike
would furnish rich material for a lat
ter-day Bret Harte. It is true that Joa.
Quin Miller is on the ground. but it is
also true that the latter manner of Mil.
Ter is nothing like the earlier manner
Of Harte.-Argonaut.
