The trial of the habeas corpus case
for the custody of Evan p. Kimmick, a
child of 3 years of age, before the dis
trict court at Sheridan, last Tuesday
afternoon, showed up some of the par
ties in a not at all creditable.
Mrs. Kimmick, the mother of the
child, is unfortunately so deaf that she
is unable to hea any conversation, and
even if carried on in very loud tones
every word must be shouted in her ear.
She was living with her husband, in
the house of her step-father. A. 7.
Stacy, her husband being too shiftless
to provide a home or sustenance for
her, he testifying himself on the wit
ness stand, that he had lone no work
since he came to the town in December
last, and failed to show where he had
even. worked since his marriage, except
about forty days; he testified to immor-
ality on the part of his wife, but the
evidence showed, that taking advant-
age of her deafness, he had cOnspired
with a chum of his to ruin her char
acter, and failing in this had practiced
a systematic course of abuse of his
wife's feelings, with the object of driv-
ing her from the place she was COM
PEELED to consider her home. without
allowing her to take her child W
her. But the mother love, being too
etrong to allow her to do this, her step
father-in-law ordered her out of the
house on December II, destitute of
money and nearly destitute of clothing,
her husband standing by and making
no objections, and would not allow her
to take the child. The suit was brought
by the mother to recover possession of
the child. After the evidence was in
the court awarded the possession of the
child to the mother, and in well chosen
words. gave the young husband his
opinion of a man who would seek to
ruin the reputation of his wife, and
tram up his child to hate its mother.
1t is to be hoped that it will be a long
time before Sheridan is disgraced with
another such case.-Sheridan Post.

Just now it is said that American
coal is being shipped to Mediterranean
ports at the rate of 10000 tons pei

think hat this foreshadows some war.
like movement among the continental
powers, and it is evident that England
has some apprehension of that kind
for she is doing the utmost 10 divert
the cargoes to her own ports, and tax,
ing all the coal she can get at prices in
advance of the contract figures. Here,
tofore Europe has depended on Wales
and England, but the supply from those
sources is now entirely absorbed by
Great Britain herself, and buyers are
therefore obliged to seek American
markets.-Salt Lake Tribune.

A DISAPPOINTED REPORTER.
She Didn't Call on Miss Grace Dodge
Again.

She Didn't Call on Miss Grace Dodge
Again.
A oma newspaper reporter, who is
now a well-known author, nee called
upon Miss Grace Dodge, the million
aire organizer and head of the New
York Working Girls Clubs, who is also
the author of "a Bundle of Letters to
Busy Girls" say the Philadelphia
Post. The servant looked sympathet-
ically at the reporter, invited her into
the house, took away her wet rubbers
and shoes and brought dry ones, an
act which filled the visitors heart with
Joy. Then she brought a cup of tea and
some biscuit. After a long wait Miss
Dodge came in. Are you a reporter"
she asked the newsgatherer. Yes?
l am very sorry you should have come
up here this rainy day to see me. You
know | never talk about my plans for
publication, but we can have just as
nice a time talking about books and
pictures. Won't you have another cup
of tea? Must you be going? | am
very sorry. Wait a minute and have
the coachman drive you to your office
or your home. Come up some day when
we can have more time, and I'll tell
you all about the Working Girls Clubs.
but Of course you won't print any Of
it." The reporter rode home, but she
didn't call again-at least, o on bust
ness.

AS TO COURTESY.

The Republican would like a word
with the societies of Laramie. Num-
cEOUs Entertainments are given with
out the courtesy of an invitation be-
ing extended to the papers of the city.
All expect their entertainments to be
given friendly mention, yet neglect to
-,"rnish tn" means whereby the papers
may gather the news. A reporter
rarely ever attends a place of amuse-
mcnt or a ball to enjoy himself. 1t
means work for him. His mind is not
upon the pleasures of the occasion, but
turns to the costumes of the ladies', the
decorations upon the walls, the music
and the general excellence of the ar
~rangoments. After the entertainment
is over. the Impressions must be put
upon paper and into type. Is it fair to
ask n reporter to pay his way to dc
something for your benefit? The Re-
publican believes this is merely an I'M
intentional oversight, one that all the
societies of Laramie will correct as
soon as their attention is called to the
matter.
1t st. Louis a short time since Presi.
dent Hadley of Yale college was ban
quoted by the Yale alumni of that city.
All the city editors sen reporters.
They were met coldly by the educated
and talented gentlemen in charge OF
the affair and invited to the kitchen
instead of the banquet hall. When the
newspaper men reported to their chiefs
all mention of the Hadley banquet was
suppressed and the president of Ameri-
cas- greatest educational institution
was very much Inundated. Ever since
his friends have been explaining that
he was in no way to blame for the dis.
courtesy shown the great papers OF st
Louis by the Yale alumni.
Laramie's papers are just as great
t"4Laramie as the st. Louis papers are
t. Louis.

correspondent asks us why Ar
me is such a menac to the Uni
States when the whole of South
hrica raises less wheat than one
he in the union. We have answered
Pthat question several times, but it is
lall right to answer it again. Argen-
time has one-third of the area of the
United States, including Alaska. 1t has
5000 900 of people. mostly all engaged
in agriculture. Only a small proper
United States is shipped abroad, but
the price received abroad makes the
price at home, and it would be easy for
Argentine to raise as much wheat next
year as all that the United States ships
away. That would have the effect to
greatly reduce the price in European
markets, and that being done, the price
Of wheat all over the United States
would be reduced correspondingly.
Then in southern Brazil, which is a
magnificent wheat country, there is an
area, peopled mostly by Germans. as
large as the German empire in Europe,
and there is no reason why they should
not, within five years. be able to send
as much wheat into the worlds markets
as Argentine. The menace of those
W countries is that they can, when
ever they please, supply the Old Worlr
with -four enough to greatly reduce the
value of wheat in any state in the IN
few years only when it will be unprofit-
able for the United States to ship any
wheat to Europe, but there will be a
very muck greater demand by that time
