who has been in the employ Of r. A.

lower part OF the abdomen and ranged
upwards into the lower and back part
Of the chest. He suffered much pain,
though the physicians in attendance
did all in their power to saw him, but
to no avail. On Tuesday his spirit took

AT THE OPERA U

january 18th a most noteworthy
event is the appearance, as a star, in
this city. of Harry Corson Clarke, the
well known and talented comedian and
character actor, who has. by his own
efforts. risen to a high position on the
stage, and who Is universally admired
for the quaint and natural character
ization he always gives no matter how
difficult the role. From all accounts
Mr.. Clarke is on the top wave OF pros
perity and he has played to crowded
houses in San Francisco. In the farcial
comedy, What Happened to JONES'"
he has made a wise selection for it is
n of the brightest and most laughable
farces written in years. The brilliant
lines and clever situations combined
with some remarkable complications
keep up TIL. laughter and interest from
the start to the finish. What Happen
ed to Jones' has proven itself a great
hit in New York, I'M London, in San
Francisco. and in fact wherever pre-
sented. and 1t will surely be the right
play in the right place. Mr.. Clarke has

LAWMAKERS ARRIVE.
Fifth Session of the Legislature Will
Be a Busy One.

Members Of the fifth state Legislature
are coming in rapidly and by Tuesday
morning, when the session c~5hyenes,
all will have arrived. The session of
the Wyoming promises to be very in
teresting, not only because of the sena-
torial contest which has already arous-
ed great interest throughout the west,
but there are numerous important mat
tiers which will come up for adjustment
and settlement.
Among these, second to the senatorial
contest, the wolf bounty question is
Leyt in Importance. This is a question
which has been agitating the citizens
of this state for many years. At every
session the matter of wolf bounty
comes up and sums of money are ap-
p~ropriated with which to pay for the
determination of the pests, but when
the next session arrives the wolves are
greater in number than ever before
and the cattle and sheepmen, together

the doors of the legislature for another
appropriation for wolf bounty. Sew
eral delegations from over the state
will wage a determined fight at this
session OF the legislature to have a
large appropriation made and a a
law placing the amount of bounty at
a figure which will insure q complete
determination of wolves on the ranges
Of Wyoming.
Another important matter which will
probably come up at this session will
be the enactment of a law providing
for an election to be held In 1900 to

branded cattle have sold up to the
above price. On Monday, January 2,
we had the pleasure of handling for the
very we'll known and successful feeder,
Mr.. w. l.. Moreland of Atlantic, Iowa,
sixteen head of branded Angus steers,
averaging 1882 pounds at $3.50, ex-
treme top price that day, and highest OF
the season for branded cattle up to that
time, though $685. WA obtained two
days later. These cattle were prchased
by Mr.. Moreland through our South
Omaha house on July 10. 1t is sufficient
to say regarding their quality that they
were bred and shipped by B. B. Brooks
& Co. of Casper, Wyo., whose herd has
been steadily improved by the infusion
of pure blood for years, until the
Brooks blacks now have a wide and
justly deserved reputation. The cattle
were on full feed Of corn and clover hay

good gain. They were purchased by

THE LEGISLATURE
INTERESTING LETTER FROM THE
CAPITAL CORRESPONDENT
OF THE REPUBLICAN.
The Coming Session will Bring Forth
Some Questions of The Greatest
Importance 10 the People of the
States-Albany County Well Rep
resented.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Jan ESPECIAL
lature, which is to at Chey-
enne, january 10th, promises to be the
most important ~law-making body ever
assembled in Wyoming. Nearly all the
members have now arrived, and a
critical study of the personnel of the
fifth assembly shows that the voters
of their law makers. Overwhelmingly
republican there will be no room for
political d~issension, and with the sena-
torial question out of the way, which it
will be just as o o as the law permits,
the legislature will nave abundant time
TO enact into laws the numerous i'm
portant measures to be brought before
1t.
The vcte for United States senator
cannot begin under ten days from the
opening of the session, and it is the
general opinion that IN election will be
had on the first ballot.
1t does not require amy great amount
of discernment to see thai our next
United States senator will come from
one Of these four-Clark, Gramm, Da-
Wis or Torrey-and it is freely pre-
dicted that there is no great battle to be
fought, but that the result will come
with no more uproar than heralds the
sunrise every day in the year.
The election of John McGill as presi-
dent of the senate, and L. r. Davis OF
Weston county ito the speakership of
the house are Enthusiastically fore
Swallowed, but all other officers and as
sistants are veiled in uncertainty.
Nothing definite can be stated, although
it is quite probable that r. w. Wan
lace of Casper and John Talbot Of Chey-
enne will be sergeant at arms of the
house and senate respectively. The
women are making a vigorous fight for
the several clerkships, and having had
no candidate on the state ticket, they
feel that a goodly share of these posi-,
lions belong to them. The republican
party will doubtless do its duty in this
particular, as it always has in the past
and as it has ever been the friend of the
weaker sex, so it will prove to be at
this time.
The city is alive with the applicants
for the various positions, and the myr-
lads of friends of the several senatorial
candidates and the capital seems to be
in holiday attire night and day.
The Legislative body about to convene
will have brought before it questions
SURPRISING in Importance any that have
yet confronted our lawmakers in the
past, and Albany stands we'll up at the
top in the way of matters pertaining
to the local interests of the respective
counties.
1t is fortunate for Albany county
that she has a strong delegation for this
session and that 1t numbers among its
members men OF past Legislative ex-
~perience. There are questions to come
up that will require wisdom and dis
creticn Of a high order properly to
, meet, and. thanks to the voters of last
election, the county has just the men
to meet any emergency that may arise
