engineers en- the road. He has a wood

is one reason he always makes such
fast time-he has but one other leg to

is risking just half as much as other en-

Rumors are prevalent to the effect
that 1.-The can" is to be taken off of the
railroad boys that engaged in the I'M
ion Pacific strike in 1894. While the
Press gives it but little ~credence, we
would be only too pleased to see the
men able to secur employment once
more. With scarcely an exception the
men that engaged in the strike were
exceedingly competent and worthy, and
now that they generally concede their
error, the company could do no mon
humane act than to re-establish them
on the same footing they held before
the unfortunate episode before mem
tioned.-Wyoming Press.

A PIONEER DEAD
LOUIS THOBRO, A WE'LL KNOWN
CITIZEN SUCCUMBS TO
PNEUMONIA.
Deceased Wa a Resident of Laramie
For Eighteen Years and Engaged
in the Drug Observation-Disclosures of
Masonic Fraternity-Carried Some
Life Insurance.

Louis Thobro, the druggist, died at
noon today of pneumonia which follow
ed an attack of the grip, after an illness
of nearly two weeks. The end was not
unexpected as the patient had been
very weak for several days.
Deceased was a pioneer of Laramie
and n of the highly respected c.ti-
zens of the town and took an interest
in a number of public matters.
Mr.. Thobro was born in 1916, in Loi-
ten, Norway and came 10 America in
1871 to Fremont, Neb. where he remain
ed only a short time. coming to Lara
mic and engaging in the drug business
at the stand now occupied by c. N.
Settele. The partners disposed of this
business and Mr.. Thobro went to New
Mexico for two or three years, return
ing about 1884 and went to Norway TO
Christina, the capital, where he was
married to Oline SChurson. OF this
union three children were born, two
being twins, and of these, two children
and his wife survive him.
Two sisters, Mrs. Frank Rice and
Mrs. Clark Pelton, live in Laramie and
a brother, Henry Thobro of Blooming
ton, ILL.,, has beer autographed for and
will be here to attend the funeral.
In 1888 Mr.. Thobro built the brick
block on Second street which he occu-
pied as a drug store known as the
Eagle Pharmacy and he was engaged
in this business at the time of his
death.
He made his start in life in Laramie
as a fireman on the railroad. He also
had been a sailor tor a number of years
as a young man and had sailed over
manys seas and been in many foreign
ports.
He was, for a number Of years, secre-
tary of the old Laramie Building and
Loan Association which recently ended
and 1T was largely to Mr.. Thobro's in
terest and business judgment, given al
little or no expense, which made this
institution such a success and en-
abled many persons to have a safe
place, not only to invest their money
but to borrow money to build theiI
homes at times when outside capital
u,os not tn he nhtained
Deceased has been for many years a
member Of Laramie Lodge No. 8, A. F.
and A. M. and this organization will
probably have charge Of the funeral.
Arrangements for the funeral have
not been definitely settled but it will
probably not be held before Monday
and as there Is no Lutheran minister
here, deceased having been raised in
that faith, the services may be held
from St. Matthews cathedral. Definite
arrangements will probably be made
by tomorrow evening and due an.
nouncement made.

THE WYOMING BATTALION.

The paper called Uncle Sam" which
is published by T. ]. Calvin, a young
man who worked in the Tribune Office
about two years ago is a six-folio and
is full Of interesting items concerning

emit regiments now stationed in that

LODGE T

Laramie Rebekah lodge No. / will
install officers next Thursday night,
january 10Th.
The report Of the proceedings OF the
last Grand Lodge is now in press and
Grand Secretary Louis Miller, says n
will be out in two weeks.
The number Of Odd Fellows in Wyo-
ming, according to the World almanac,
is 1902. Secretary Miller was asked
about this and said that all reports for
1898 were not yet in from subordinate
lodges, SO that he could not tell.
The Odd Fellows have a state bene-
fit organization which is a decidedly
fratemal and beneficial one and will
often be a great relief to the widows
and families OF a member who holds a
membership in it. In brief it means
that each member of the benefit class
pays NJ dollar Upon the death Of a
member and the sum Is available TO
the family within twenty-four hours
after the death OF the member, the
money being assessed and on hand.
Some new features may be added later
by the order, but no red tape or tech
.nicality is liable to occur under the
present plan to delay immediate pay
ment of the money.

Nevertheless he thinks that he sees
clouds on the social horizon already
bigger than mans hand. If they
continue to enlarge, in the shape of
trusts, to the bursting point, the re-
suit will be, he thinks. something like
this: 1.-The men whose business it is
70 communicate ideas to their genera

lish ideas; and the publishers will be
shackled by the manufacturers Of pa
per; and the papermakers will be held
up and hindered by the transportation

producers of steel; and the steel in
dustries by the coal operators; and the
coal miners by the oil producers: and

and the oil consumers; and the cook
