Human Hearts," a pastoral drama,
the opening scenes of which are laid In

happily for a year. and then the wo-
mans fomer lover appears on the
scene. and she and he plot to kill her
husband and elope. A mistake is made
and the lover kills the husbands aged

man and her lover both swear they
saw the husband commit the murder.
The husband is sent to prison for life
and the woman and her lover 60 OF to-
gether. A pardon is secured for the
husband; a tramp who witnessed the
murder tells the truth, and retributive
Justice overtakes the conspirators.-

DEATH OF UNCLE" TRADING.
Passed Away Early This Morning
Aged Nearly Ninety Years.

George Frederick TRADING, an old and
highly respected resident Of Laramie,
died at the TRADING ranch near Lara
mic at 2 o'clock this morning. His end
was peaceful, the cause being nothing
more than old age.
Mr.. TRADING was born in the prov
ince of Hesse-Cassel, Germany, August
4, 1910, and was therefore nearly 80
years of age at the time Of his death.
In Germany he learned the trade Of
paper maker n followed that profess
sion until he removed to America. He
Came to America in the early '40s, To-
eating in st. Louis, where he engaged
in the brewing and liquor business. At
n time he vas quite wealthy, but lost
all his savings through the business
failure of a false friend for whom he
had endorsed notes to a large amount.
He came to Wyoming in the year
1880 or 1881, and made his home with
his nephews, Augustus and Charles
Trabing.
Mr.. Trabing never married and
leaves M immediate family to mourn
his loss. He had many warm friends,
however, who sincerely regret his de-
parture. He was a man of temperate
habits, of even temper and kindly dis
position. Physically he wal a magnifl-
specimen, over six feet in height
and weighing over 200 pounds. Until
quite lately he frequently walked to
from the ranch, a distance of two
and n half miles, Notwithstanding
his eighty odd years. For the past few
weeks he has been confined to his bed
more or less by trouble with his legs,
which seemed unable to support his
large frame. Until lately, however, he
has always enjoyed good health.

COUNCIL MEETING
ORDINANCE CLOSING SALOONS BE-
TWEEN MIDNIGHT AND SIX
O'CLOCK DEFEATED.
Proposition to Remit a Fifty Dollar
Fine Also Knocked Out-Some
Small Tax Rebates Allowed-Sani-
tary Ordinance Discussed, But No

The city council met last evening in
regular session, all the councilmen ex-
cept Mr.. Schwatke being present.
After the reading of the monthly re-
port of the police justice. Mr.. Brands
moved that the $50 fine paid by John
Grover for renting a house which had
been used for immoral purposes be re-
mitted. Mr.. Miller seconded the mo-
ton. Mr.. Brands thought it was an
injustice because, he said, the warrant
in the case was issued in November and
not served until January. Mr.. Crum-
rine opposed the motion, maintaining
that it was a dangerous proceeding to
remit fines imposed by the justice. Mr..
Miller supported the motion, saying
that it seemed to him the council was
interfering too much with all classes of
people. Mr.. Crumrine attempted to
speak a second. time. but was called to
order by the mayor. He then asked un-
animous consent to make further re-
marks, but Mr.. Miller objected and the
vote was taken, resulting as follows:
Ayes-Brandis and Miller. Noes
Crumrine, Hicks and Jones. The mo-
ton was declared lost.
The special committee on rebate Of
taxes made a report recommending the
of the following claims:
, 1900-02-07

John Richert, so cents (this is the IA
nous piano claim: Pacific Investment
company, SO cents; Barclay & Young,
$3.50; j. w. Connor, 80 cents; ]. w.
Johnson, $1.20. The claim of the An
heuser-Busch Brewing company was
cut down to $4.14, and warrants were
ordered drawn for the several amounts.
The claims of c.. NJ. Tegner and Mrs. H.
Durlacher were disallowed.
The ordinance requiring the closing
of saloons between the hours of mid
night and 6 o'clock in the morning
came up for final passage, when Mr..
Miller moved to lay on the table. Mr..
Crumrine wanted to speak on the ques-
ton, but 1t was decided that the ques-
ton was not debatable. The vote was
rs follows: Ayes-Brandis, Hicks and
Miller. Noes-Crumrine and Jones.
The motion was %thereupon declared
carried.
Some discussion over the proposed
sanitary ordinance was INDUCED in.
The provision prohibiting the use, sale
or offering for sale of ice taken from
the river less than a quarter of a mile
above any slaughter house and within
a distance of ten miles north of the
city brought forth some remarks, and
the question of licensing milkmen did
not seem to meet with entire approval.
1t was finally decided to refer the ordin-
ance to a special committee consisting
Of the city attorney, the city clerk and
Messrs. Jones and Miller.
On motion of Mr.. Crumrine, the city
attorney was empowered to confer with
the county commissioners and make
arrangements for repairing and furn-
ishing the pest house. 1t was the opin-
ion of the councilmen that inasmuch as
the city owned the land and building
used as the pest-house, and as the
health law specifically provided that
the county should pay the expense of
the care of patients confined therein.
the city should not be called upon to
bear any part of this expense, but in
the interest OF the cause 1t was agreed
that no objection would be made to
part of the cost of getting the
place in proper shape for the reception
Of patients.

AN OBJECT LESSON
In a Restaurant.

a physician puts the query: Have
you never noticed in any large restau-
rant at lunch or dinner time the large
number of hearty, vigorous old men al
the tables; men whose ages run from
60 to so years: many of them bald and
all perhaps gray. but none of them
feeble or senile?
Perhaps the spectacle is so common
rs to have escaped your observation OF
comment. but nevertheless it is an OBJ
ject lesson which means something.
If you will notice what these hearty
old fellows are eating you will observe
that they are not munching bran
crackers nor gingerly picking their way
through a menu card of new tangled
health foods; on the contrary they
seem to prefer juicy roast Of beef. Il
properly turned loin of mutton, and
even the deadly broiled lobster is not
altogether ignored.
The point of all this is that a vigor-
Gus old age depends upon good diges-
ton and plenty of wholesome food and
not upon dieting and an endeavor II
live upon bran crackers.
There is a certain class of food
coffee and many other good things are
rank posons. but these cadaverous.
sickly looking individuals are a walk
ing condemnation of their own
theories.
The matter in a nutshell is that if
the stomach SecreteS the natural diges-
tive juices in sufficient quantity any
wholesome food will be promptly di-
gested; if the stomach does not do so.
and certain foods cause distress one or
two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal will remove all diff
Guilty because they supply just what
every weak stomach lacks, pepsin,
hydro chloric acid, diastase and nux
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act
upon the bowels and in fact are not
strictly a medicine, as they act almost
entirely upon the food eaten, digesting
it thoroughly and thus gives a much
needed rest and giving an appetite fox
the next meal.
OF people who travel nine out of ten
use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets know
ing them to be perfectly safe to use at
any time and also having found out by
experience that they are a safeguard
against Indigestion in any form, and
eating as they have to. at all hours
and all kinds of food. the travelling
public for years have pinned their
faith to StuartS Tablets.
All druggists sell them at so cents
for full sized packages and any drug
gist from Maine to California, If his
opinion We're asked, will say that
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is the most
popular and successful remedy for any
stomach trouble.
