In view of the important educational
work undertaken by the new %organiza-
ton in Laramie, the Woman's club, The
Republican here briefly gives a detailed
review of this club, its officers, the var
ious departments, time and place of
meeting and an outline of the work as
far as obtainable at present.
The membership of the club is large
and consists of the best talent in the
various lines of study to be covered.
The scope of the departments is so large
that a casual glance will not suffice to.
thoroughly comprehend it. Laramie
contains a greater proportion of women
fields of intellectual work than most
towns of its size and as a university
town stands high in an educational
way. The club corner, which is to be
devoted by The Republican to club
work, every Tuesday, will contain the
programs and review of the work of the
previous week ana as far as possible a
schedule of the meetings of the next
week.
The Republican reporter called on the
president of the cluD this week and the
plan of having a club corner was hear
lilly endorsed, and the following notes
on the organization obtained:

of our office holders have gone wrong. as the rosters of our jails and peniten- tiaries will show. Now in view of this fact, amply supported by criminal sta- tistics, do you feel that you can safely vouch for Secretary Akers?''
 MT. Jackson was jared by this showing, but he maintained his posi- tion on the perch. He regarded Mr. Akers with some suspicion, but there were the yawning doors of the cala- boose. Yes" said he with determi- nation, 'T1 vouch for him, office holder or no office holder" All right, saic the recorder, tits your risk; you can go."
 MT. Jackson later assured the sec- retary that all this trouble had grown out of single glass of beer. He had been working on a hay baler for sev- eral weeks and every day got little hotter and a lttle thirstier than he was the day before. He came to town and drank one glass of beer. He was so thirsty he drank it violently. The conduct of the beer was retalia- tCry. Its action was so violent he grew stupid and knew nothing more until he was put on trial for drinking to excess

TERRELL BE NO RECEPTION.
Governor Murphy's Wishes Will Be
 Acceded To.

Arrangements for a reception of Governor Murphy on his arrival here were abandoned yesterday when it was made known that he especially desired no demonstration of any sort. Governor McCord had telegram from MT Murphy in the afternoon repeat ing his objection published in The Republican yesterday morning, to any public reception, and the same request was also conveyed in message from MT. F. M. Murphy, who had tele- gram from Governor Murphy. lnas- much, though, as meeting for the purpose had been called at the execu- tive chambers before Governor Mur- phys wishes were generally known, a large number of citizens assembled there last night
 There were among them several Grand Army men and veterans who had been especially deslrous of doing honor to the incoming governor, but of course since he had so plainly signi- fed his views the plan for public reception was immediately given up. John M Hamilton was chairman of the meeting After some discussion it was decided to empower the chairman to appoint a cOmmI tee of twenty-five to take such action in connection with the governors arrival as might seem best It is expected that this committee will be named today, but in view of Gov error Murphy's request it is not likely that any action will be taken that will conflict with his desire to settle down to his duties without any demonstra- ton by his friends.

RUBBER WARSHIPS.
The! Have a Great Advantage Over
 Vessels of Iron.

An Ohio man has come to the front witt a singular request. He wants Uncle Sam to build his warships of rubber. The Ohio man thinks it would be a good thing, and there are reasons for believing that his sanguine views have some substantial backing. Sup pose the new battleship CaOutchouc, for instance, stumbles on the enemy in midocean-or in midsummer. The dastardly foe at once opens fire on her at short range The first shot misses her. The second strikes her squarely aBtidships and bounding back carries away the dastardly enemy's smoke stack, his cooks galley and all the cap tain's official bric-a-brac. If there is a third shot it may not strike the CaOut chouC so squarely. If it takes a glanc- ing blow it is likely to fly into the air to such tremendous height that when it returns it's momentum will be suffi- cient to carry it down through the en- emy's open hatchway and straight through his copper sheathed bilge eel lal. If he survives these set-backs- or bound backs-he may foolishly at tempt to ram our rubber pride of the seas. What will be the consequence? The more forcible the blow the more
 shocking the rebound. A sixteen knot collision of this character would undoubtedly fling the enemy back with such force that it would be quite char acteristic of him to land-if there can
 be any landing in id-ocean-wrong side up, position most embarrassing of marine situations. And ali this without a shot being fired by the de- lenders of Our flag
 Then take the case of the elastic plated ram, Rubberneck. An ingenious coT triyance could enable her to sud denly stretch out her ramming depart
 ment and strike the enemy a solar
 plexus when he least expected it. And the very impact of her blow would at
 once cause her to rebound to point of perfect safety.
 Then think of the extra number of 1 troops the rubber warship could carry by little judicious stretching. If she struck a rock she would simply bound away. If she grounded herself all tha
 would be necessary would be to loosen few of the internal joints and girders 1 that hold her elactic sides apart, when | she would at once partially collapse herself free.
 1 Oh, that Ohio man isn't such wild
 eyed dreamer as certain envious east
 ern editors profess to believe. A rub i Der warship is something more tan gible than mere stretch of imagina- | tiOI

POULTRY.

The American Cultivator suggests that the true way to test the compara- tive merits of two different breeds is to take equal numbers of good, healthy and vigorous chickens and feed them literally, weighing occasionally to see how much gain is made for the amount fed, and of cost of the feed When they begin laying credit the eggs from each flock, and when all are laying fairly we'll, weigh them, credit the eggs at their market value each week, de- duct this from the egg account, and see W hich lot has cost the most per pound up to that time, when they may be con- sidered fairly well matured, if not quite at their heaviest weight. Then keep them for year, or at least a year from the time they begin to lay, and credit the eggs and their market value, and ascertain which flock lays the greater number, and which gives the greater value by laying when eggs arr scarce and high priced.

STOOD BY THE SECRETARY.
He Was Not Afraid to Accept the Kind
 Offices of MT Akers.

Among the early victims of the po- lice yesterday morning was man who said his name was Jackson. taken up for drunkenness. He was fined $4 and was without cent. The prospect of the calaboose and the chain gang quickened his intellectual faculties, so that he remembered he had one old acquaintance in town who might aid him. That was MT. Charles H. Akers. secretary of the territory of Arizona, U. 5. A. Chaperoned by an officer, Jac kson visited MT. Akers and pointed out the peril in which he stood. He introduced "reminiscences of the old mining days in Yavapai when MT. Akers never expected to be secretary of the territory and when MT. Jackson never expected to be run in for inc briety. MT. Akers couldn't withstand the ties of early friendship and could not resist MT. Jackson's plea for ib- erty. He accompanied him and the officer back to the recorders office and told Mir. Jobs that he had come to see Jackson out of the hole. -Four dof- lars" replied the recorder. "I mean 9 said MT. Akers, that I will stand good for the amount of the fine" The reply of the recorder was less prompt. He stared at the secretary awhile and observed that the books had been closed and balanced and the city had decided to open no more accounts with gentlemen on account of fines.
 The recorder added that if he was sure of getting the s4 it would be an other thing. At this point MT. Jack son intervened. He said he had known Mir. Akers for many years, had always found him to be a respectable and honest citizen, whose word was as good aS his bond. MT. Jackson warmed to his work as he proceeded with his eulogy, and finally exclaimed eXcitedly, 'I'll vouch for him." Have you known him intimately of late?" asked the recorder. Well, not for about six years,' replied Mr. Jackson. Not since he developed a tendency toward office hOlding.'
 MT. Jackson adm tied that when he
 knew MT. Akers he was without any objectionable habits.
 "But since then" said the recorder
 ''he has been holding office nearly all the time. It is a recognized fact that
 office holding like the inordinate use of whisky or cocaine changes the na-
 ture of men. A very large majority

BLOOD AT WHIPPLE.
A Soldier From New Mexico Wins the
 F'lrs Prize

Arizona has been beaten by one of the soldiers from New Mexico in draw ing first blood at Whipple Barracks. Whether it was Spanish blood is of difficult determination, but it was a Spanish act of cruelty, first drawing blC cd and then sustenance from a source not antagonistic to the princi- pies for which the boys have enlisted. The Albuquerque Citizen furnishes the following account of the affair from 2 special correspondent on the spot:
 Private McRae is the making of a most daring soldier. The experience he had last night his squad will never fol get Indeed, I here chronicle the first important victory of Company A, New Mexico volunteers. Our hero was on guard duty, and it was his busi- ness to see that no one came within the lines without challenge.

Who comes there?' There was no answer except a continued rustling among the bushes. Percy then, being unarmed, except with a penknife, rushed into the thick of it and called for an advance and countersign, without response. Then drawing his knife he advanced on the double-quick and inflicted the first real wound of the campaign. His wounded victim surrendered with some little
 protest. The valiant guard milked l. L : L
