REEDS WINS THE WAGER.
Proves His Ability to Stand Any
Amount Of Low Temperature.

Engineer Reed Of the Clinton and
Boone division OF the Northwestern
road has shrown himself capable Of
making and winning a very strong
wager in the defense of the belief that
his line must excel in everything.
Recently, while ne had some extra
time or his hands and was doing his
best to keep warm, as it was a very cold
morning, a fellow engineer offered to
make a snug wager that he could stand
more cold than any other man within
the sound of his voice. Mr.. Reed
promptly accepted the wager and 1t
was agreed that each should put a leg
out of the cab window and the one who
succumbed to the cold should be de-
clared the loser.
The frost was nipping and, after do
ing his best the profferer of the bet
drew in his foot and slapped it against
the boiler to extract the frost. He said
he saw anything to equal En-
gineer Reed, as the latter pocketed the
cash, but his wonder changed to chag-
rim when the latter rolled up his
Trousers and exhibited a wooden foot.

CAME HERE TO DIE.
H. X. Nettler Arrived Here Friday
Night and Died Sunday.

Harry X. Nettler, a son of Mrs, H. P.
Anderson arrived here last Friday
night at midnight from Pittsburg, Pa,
in a precarious condition and suffering
man hin he grew suddenly worse and
became somewhat d~elerious. SO that
when the train reached Laramie he was
so sick that he had to be carried into
the depot hotel. Fred Meneely, the
night clerk at the Thornburgh, saw his
condition and got a cot and placed it in
the waiting room, making him as COM
Portable a ~spossible. A physician was
called and the man was found to be
quite delirious and unable to tell who
he was or where he was going and the
train remained here SO short a time
that the conductor could leave no in
structions. However it was learned
that is name was Harry Nettler and
his mother, Mrs. II. P. Anderson, lived
on Fifth street between Bradley an
Flint, where he was removed. He did
not rally from his unconscious and de-
lartious condition and death ended his
troubles yesterday afternoon.
Deceased was 81 years Of age and was
unmarried. He had visited Laramie
for a short time about eight years ago
The funeral will take place from the
house on North Fifth street tomorrow
morning at 1890. Archdeacon John
ston officiating. Mrs. H. P. Anderson,
mother of the deceased, is almost pros

are doing all in their power to comfort

The reported case of small pox from
Medicine Bow which ~occasoned com

false report. DR.. r. Harvey Reed, the
superintendent of the hospital, states
positively that the case referred to is

Coroner's jury Returns Its Verdict
Holding Engineer Reece to Blame.
Sidney, Neb., Jan. 14.-Dr. w. w.
Dorward, a dentist from Omaha, was a
witness today before Coroner Bassett
and a jury in relation to the death of
A. T. Sellick of Omaha. The doctor ex-
pected to identify the body by an ex-
animation of the mouth, having done
dental work for the deceased, but the
body was in such a condition that it
was impossible. However, sufficient
evidence has been offered to make the
Identification sure. Conductor Stone
produced Sellick's pass, showing he was
an employee of the Union Pacific rail-
road in the storekeeper's department.
The other body is undoubtedly that of
a stockman, and parties who were in
the same car described him as a heavy
set man. This corresponds with the
remains that are still in the Union Pa
cific freight house encased in a hand
some coffin. Se1lick's remains will
probably be taken to Omaha tomorrow
night.

turned a verdict that the five persons
came to their death by an accidental
collision, caused by an unintentional

ONLY A

When l left old Ireland, long Ago., my
heart was light and free,
To seek a home in a foreign land, I
crossed the raging sea.
Myself and widowed mother lived in a
little cot,
No brother and no sister, yet happy
vas our lot.
One day a message came to me, it was
from old Erin's shore,
My lone and sad heart beat with joy as
1t never did before.
surprise
A little three-leafed shamrock appeared
before my eyes.
Chorus
Only a shamrock from far DER the sea,
Only a shamrock, yet a treasure to me.
1t came from dear old Ireland three
Thousand miles away,
My mother sent 1t to me and it came
here today.
l kissed the little shamrock, plucked
from Erin's earth,
The emblem of old Ireland the land
that gave me birth,
And my poor widowed mother, though
now she is old and gray,
VIII not forget her darling boy, three
thousand miles away.
And this green immortal shamrock that
my mother gave,
When this life is ended, shall decorate
my grave.
And when my poor and weary soul has
fled and gone to rest,
1 hope to meet my mother in heaven
with the blessed.
(Chorus.)

The other day when two miles from
Treaty, Ind, Conductor Brooks, Of the
northbound Flyer" stepped to the
rear platform Of the last coach and
pulled two ten-dollar bills from the
depth of his vest pocket. The stiff
breeze blowing carried them from his
hands and back along the track.
He frantically grasped the bell cord
and gave it mighty pull, but Engi-
neer John Critz, supposing that it was
a signal to stop Mt Treaty to let off a
passenger, responded with two blasts
Of his whistle, and did not slacken
speed. Treaty was soon reached, and
when the train halted Conductor
Brooks FASTENED around to the engine
and related the tale Of his loss. The
return trip was begun, witt the con-
ductor and brakeman on the rear Of
the train eagerly scanning the track In
the hope Of finding the currency.
Finally the train was stopped and the
crew got off and prosecuted the search
all over the right of way, sympathetic
passengers joining In the quest. The
search was abandoned and the con-
ductor told all hands to get on the
train, when the brakeman came upon
both bills lying within three feet Of
each other, and then the train sped on

The Cost Of the Trassvaal War.

Englands Parliament will have to
increase its appropriation far beyond
the $50,O00,O0O mark, even though the
war is likely to be much shorter than
anybody short time ago thought 1t
would be. The transportation Of be-
tween 10000 and $4,000 soldiers for a
distance Of over 5000 miles, and their
support for several months i'm a re-
gion where, even under the most ia
vorable conditions, the cost of living
for soldiers would be high, will en-
tail an outlay far beyond the original
estimates. The present debt of the
United Kingdom, deducting the sink
ing fund, is In the neighborhood Of
So, 400, 100000, which is greater than
that of any other nation excepting
Russia, which Is $4,000, 900, 900, and
France, $4,000, 100000. 1t is altogeth-
err probable that the war with the
South African Republic and the Or
ange Free State will run up BritaIn's
debt at least $20O.O00.0OO beyond its
present line.

DON'T TELL YOUR TROUBLES.
Little Sympathy for Men Who Are Always
Feeling Way OFF To-day"

If" said man of mature years, Il
was going to give n word of advice to
a young man. one Of the things that l
should say to him would be this:
Don't be sick. That is, don't be an
ailing MIN, not feeling well, and all
that sort of thing. Keep your little
ills to yourself. To tell how bad we
feel does not, as a rule, awaken SYM
patty. As a matter of fact-and it's
all right so, toO-we don't cotton much
to n man that wants or expects to be
couuieu an 49, -i-..a. we like better
the chap made Of sterner stuff, who
doesn't worry other people about
them
This does not mean that a man
wants to say he's well, when really he
is sick. That would be foolish, as 1t
would be for man to work in such
condition. But nobody likes to see a
man going around with a woe-begone
expression on his countenance, and the
words, I'm way off today on his
lips, and if this is his habit whenever
he isn't feeling just right, why, he
thereby just counts himself out Of it.
There's a large stock of sympathy
on hand in the world, and it's always
plentifully offered where it is really
needed, but there's mighty little of it
expended on people suffering from
sniffies. The fact is the world isn't
drawn much toward men that are al
ways ailing; but it just hollers for
joy over men who are fit and able.
Moral: Don't make 1t a point to
tell people how miserable you're feel
ing to-dayr'-New York Sun.
