The question is often asked: WIN is
It that a person who is lost, whether it

the right? No satisfactory answer has
ever been given for this w~ell-known Pc

Some Psychologists. ANTAGONISTS and
speculative philosophers claim that the
left leg in the human species is slightly
longer tina the right, and so takes longer

fixed objective point in view. Perhaps
the real answer to this queer question
lies in the fact that most persons use
their right hands in preference to the

there is nothing in he way of obstacles

CHANGE CONTEMPLATED.
Laramie Will Probably Soon Have Are
Lights on Some Streets.

At a meeting this week between the
members of the city council and the
board of the electric light company it
was decided that some change would
be made in the system whereby arc
lights would be placed on some of the
streets. 1t is thought that about 10
business portion of the town and that
the balance of h city will be lighted
as at present with the incandescent
lights. The exact terms have not yet
Lecn fixed. but it is understood that the
company will insist upon a franchise
for a certain number of years before
going to this extraordinary expense.
and ii is further understood that the
new system cannot be had for any ma
terial reduction from the present cost
of lighting the city.
Mr.. J. V. Swanson of the General
Electric company, Denver, arrived in
the city this morning for the purpose
Of making n thorough examination of
the local plant. and being an expert of
national reputation in his line. his re-
port will be taken as final, and so far
as the company is concerned. will
doubtless be followed out: provided,
however. the arrangements with the
city are completed.

heart; unknown man, found hanging
from a tree nea Forest; unknown man
found in a field near Summit on the

In a lonely swamp on the western
border of Winnetka the corpse of a
man and a dog were found by Frank
and Henry Series, who stumbled over
the body as they were passing through
a portion of the underbrush that has
seldom been penetrated.
A rusted revolver lay on the mans

fallen on his back, with his arms under
him. His dog had been shot in the
side farthest from the man. The ground
for many yards around bore the marks
Of trampling feet, as if in conflict. The
theory of the police is that the animal
was killed while trying to defend Its

SAYS OF THE NEW YORK
VOTER.

London, Nov. 3.-Ihe elections IN tho

peTs. The sun of this city, Of which
newspaper Harry Marks has editorial
control, says: The dog has 'etulned
to his vomit." is a text we recommend
pious New York to hang on the parlor
walls. The chief city of a great people
must see its municipal offices filed with
men who should be filling the cells in
the pen. New York has fallen like a
rotten fruit into the hands of the bUodl-
ers, but New Workers may console
themselves with saying that every city,
as every land, has the government il,
deserves.
The Evening News remarks: "Crok,

the race, showing he is more to be
feared in his natural arena OF politics
chan IN the race course. The popula-
ton Of the second greatest city in the
world has elected its ruler. and the
morning after the election the prob
lens occupying his mind did not relate
to the government of the city but to
the squaring regarding his supporters.
The experiment of democracy, as seen
in its full growth in New York, seems
to have its drawbacks as well as its
advantages
The st. James Gazette says: The
feason Americans allow themselves to
be dominated by a clique whose mem

Commenting on the allegation that
the best classes hold aioof from par

government of one of the greatest coun-
tries in the world at the mercy of the
mob and an INSCRIPTIONS demagOgue
who knows how to bend the mob to

policy of the country is often depiora-
bic. That large numbers of decent,
sensible people are utterly without
sympathy for the b%rusquerie of Olney
and fatuities of Sherman we all know,
but unhappily they utterly fail to make
their voices heard above the din of
New York slush."
The Daily Telegraph says: Mr..
Croker may sleep better, %undaunted by
the nightmare of indictments and the
prospects OF the penitentiary. 1t is a

"At the age OF two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used nil the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread oil over n
side of his face. We consulted n physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in a week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another %scrofulous look

grew worse n worse, and when he was
three months old, l began giving him
Hoods S~arsaparilla. ! also took Hoods

was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. lie is nov -four years old,
but he has never had any sign of those
