4 Timely Protest.

To the Editor Of THE HERALD:
The fifth of July is not far distant,
and word or two regarding the races
which are booked for that day will not
be out of place. Have them come of
as advertised-on time. II certain
horse race is to be run at Up. m. the
managers should see to it that it is run
at that hour, or at the farthest not more
than Is minutes later. The custom in
vogue during the past decade is becom-
ing very monotonous. Delays may meet
the approval Of those who practice what
is termed "iockeying." but it's hi for
those who go out to the track. stand the
heat OF the broiling hot sun for hours
waiting for the races to come off. Yes,
reader, YOU have been there yourself,
haven't you? o. N. TINE.

company with Under Sheriff Farnum
for the Snake river country to look after
yiolators Of the game laws. Mr.. Wilcox
is making an excellent record in his
position and while the game law may be
obnoxious to some. he has instructions
from his chief to enforce it to the letter
without fear or favor. These instruc-
tions Mr.. Wilcox will comply with and
all yiolators Of the game law that he
learns of will be prosecuted.-Craig

NAMES WRIT ON WATER.

Evansseent Reputations of Psrssns WIZ
Fitted on tho Stage.
Theatrical reputation is the most
evaneseent of all glories of life," sadly
observed the old actor. drawing his last
summers overcoat around him q little
tighter, according to the New York
Herald.
That's so," responded the agent,
land nothing reminds one Of this more
than an acquaintance with the bill
country. You know they have way
of posting up bills and autographs in
the bill-rooms-thatp part of the theater
in which the bills are laid out, and
which is the lounging place of the trav-
cling agents, the billposters, advertis-
ing men, etc, and preserving sort OF
record of the celebrated actors, com
panies and scenes that have been at
that particular house. Sometimes this
is done systematically, with an idea for
general pictorial effect, and then looks
very pretty. But more often it is the
freak of some billposter, who slapa up
u full length figure, or q lithograph
head. or something grotesque, the whole
collection forming curious and some
times nightnarish tumble.
''In the older bill-rooms will be seen
pictures of bygone favoritcs of the
American stage-of many persons who
were famous the other day and who to-
day are quite forgotten. They are
usually represented in their favorite
costume and part. Some Of these were
the rage but q few years age-drew big
salaries and had everything their own
way. There are women who actually
queened it over the whole country
made thousands and drank champagne
and wore princess diamouds. Why,
their very names arc forgotten! 1 am
not an old-timer, though I'm familiar
with the stage, and tell you I've been
actually startled suddenly to come
across these pictures on the bill-room
walls, and to be thus reminded what
they had been, and to be set to thinking
what had become of them!"

H. Ignored Tradition.

He Ignored Tradition.
Just as Shakespeare has been accepted
for years and years as the deciding
umpire in most matters literary. SO the
Nebraska people had grown to look
upon the supreme court Of their state as
the fountainhead of wisdom whose
opinions could not be gainsaid. 1t is a
way people have Of regarding supreme
courts in most states, as a matter of
fact.
William Alstadt, q little German,
whose readiest indentification among
his people was by the name Of IBIS
mark, 2" was not one who cared overmuch
for tradition, and one summer day,
after having been harangued by two
lawyers until he was almost bursting
with thirst, he made a decision which
brought him fame. 1t does not make
any special difference what was the
question at issue. It was something
about dog. There was sensible side
to it and a technical side. The
technical lawyer presented bushels
and tons of authorities, and finally
wound up with triumphant declaration
that the supreme court had decided his
way.
Whar bo hod oat 3ou,r upianarck
with sigh of relief. said: 81 decides
for de oder feller. Come on, poys, let's
dake drink.
"But." cried the defeated lawyer in
astonishment, II tell you. your honor,
that the supreme court has decided
exactly opposite"
MY frient," said "Bismarck," in

Thus it was that the supreme court
