FOREST
RESERVE FOR THE PROTECTION
OF IMPORTANT WATER
SUPPLIES.
Headwaters of Grow Greek, Pole Creek
and Harvey Creek Set Aside by a
Settlers Already Having Title
There Will Not Be Disturbed.

The presidents proclamation crea-
ting the Grow creek forest reserve.
was received in the United States LAM
Office in Cheyenne yesterday. This
consummates an important plan hat
has been in contemplation several
years.
The aim in establishing this reserve
is to protect the water supply of Chey-
enne and Fort Russell and of a large
section of country south of Laramie
and another considerable district on
the east slope of the mountains. The
land contains about $1,000 acres, or
81 sections, being townships IA and 10,
range Il; the east half of township 10,
range 70; and sections /, 2, II and II
of township Il, range ~. The land
covers the headwaters of Crow creek,
Pole creek and Harvey creek, from
which Cheyenne. Fort Russell and
large districts of irrigated land in AL
bany and Laramie counties draw their
water supply.
Several Years Old.
This land was withdrawn from
settlement in 1892 and is known as the
Crow creek timber serve Original
ly it contained six townships but it
was found that a considerable area of
c,.vipo aud urnS included in tho nrG-
posed reserve and it was deemed wise
to exclude all hat did not actually
cover the water supply. There are
many settlers on the reserve. Some
of these were permitted to locate
through errors and their claims are
still in litigation. Those persons who
have proved their claims OF may
yet prove them will OF course be per
mittcd to remain Notwithstanding the
creation of the timber reserve. AL
the railroad sections have been patent
ed. the title going back to 1868. Much
of this railroad land, mos. of it in fact
Las been sold and occupied.
The creation of this reserve will be
n good thing for the settlers located
there. 1t in a sense reserves the en-
tire tract for their benefit. No other
persons will be permitted to settle
there. Having their ~homesteads the
sections adjoining theirs will be il
many practical ways their own. fol
they will have all the customary rights
to use dead timber for fuel and car
let their stock Craze on the reserved
sections.
A ranger will be appointed who viii
go owe the ground at regular inter
walls and will make his reports to tho
superintendent of forestry for the dis
trict of Wyoming and South Dakota

caught off his mental balance.
And thy shook hands and talkd over
old times.
The Story Told.
Now it appears that Colonel Dana
did steal the turkeys and is proud of it
All this happened many years ago, in
the dim, delightful. aromatic time
known as the old days Turkeys
were scarce then and along about
Thanksgiving time they We're worth
their weight in gold. Now by a rar,
piece of good fortune, Judge Hayford
who was Editor Hayford then, had Sc
cured four fine turkeys and had then
penned up in the rear of the house
He gloated over them and boosted o
OF intolerable envy. Indeed, the fac
that Judge Hayford had turkeys all o
himself was bad enough but to b,
tainted with this illy-distributed for
tune was too much. A party of re
prisal was organized. 1t was led by
Colonel Dana and one dark night tn,
entire turkey outfit was stolen from
the coop. Judge Hayford did not gel
even a smell of turkey hat Thanksgiv
ing while in several cosy corners o.
the community the marauders pickle
the remnants of the judges turkeys
from between their teeth.
1t is not necessary to comment OF
the judges feeling, Only times OPT
ate touch has removed the sting. Some
of the members of the party did theiI
best in the way of atonement by send
ing the judge a turkey every Thanks
giving for many years after that. But
as was apparent this morning, tn,
name of Colonel Dana still smacks o
turkey to Judge Hayford.

HAYF0RD
DID NOT KNOW COLONEL DANA
WHEN HE SAW
HIM.
But He Remembered the Turkeys That
Colonel Dana Stole From Him in
that Happy, Aromatic Time Known
as the "OId Days"-A Little Scene
In The Court Room.

The arrival OF Colonel George II.
Dana in Laramie is an event OF con
siderable note among the oId-timers OF
this city. The coioneI's white lair and
mis- distinguished bearing would cause
him TO be noticed anywhere. Here in
Laramie as soon as the old-timer
scratched their heads a bit they rccOI-
lected the colonel with much gusto
and merry Renaissance. 1t seems that
Colonel Dana always leaves a clear
trail wherever he goes and is not the
kind OF a man to be forgotten. He and
n. X. Boswell have been exchanging
some marvellous mutton stories and
stories that do not relate to mutton.
The most interesting incident con-
nected with the colonel's return, how
ever, was enacted this morning when
he went to pay a call on Judge Hay
ford in the office of the latter. The
judge was in his ~fayOritc attitude, with
his judicial feet On a desk, his briar
pipe in his mouth and a newspaper in
his hand.

MEET TO FORM POOL.
ST. Paul Committee VIII he COM
pIeted This Morning.

Dleted This Morning.
What is known as the ST. Paul commit
tee, an organization which Is only parti-
ally complete, will be brought to a practi-
cal finish this morning when the railroad
men representing the road interested in
this combination meet at the office OF
Vice President Clark of the Omaha road.
This committee is organized for the pur-
pose of cooperating with other roads In
forming some kind of an agreement as TO
a schedule of rates from middle points to
the coast for both freight and passenger
business. The Omaha and Kansas City
Committees have already been completed
and are ready for active service and
when the ST. Paul is through the matter
of undertaking some POOL on western
traffic will again be taken up.
While it has been stated that no pool
for this business can be entirely formed
so long as the Northern Pacific and the
Great Northern maintains their opposing
attitudes to the pooling scheme, the
southern roads can form pool such as
they contemplate perhaps since naviga-
ton is SO near an end for this season

MINING IN CAPE NOME.
Many PROJECTORS Disappointed
This Year.


This Year.
G. w Hallock, city ticket agent for
the Northern Pacific, at Chicago, arrived
In this city yesterday from Cape Nome
Where he has been for the past sea-
Pon, acting as general agent for the
Northern Pacific He came back before
the severe months set in and may re-
turn next spring.
10 G o b e reporter Mr.. Hallock
stated that the great majority Of those
who went to Nome this year expecting
10 md fabulous wealth at their fingers
END, have been sorrowfully disappointed
over 10000 prospectors were in the camp
nuring this season and Of that number
ne says that very few have acquired
any considerable amount Of gold. Some
have, by careful work and observing fru-
gal practices, done fairly well, hut there
are no such reports to make as came
from miners who first went into the
Dawson district
Mr.. Ha4lock does not believe that Cape
Nome is barren OF gold, but upon the
pther hand he thinks the hills contain
fich veins Of the yellow metal that will
be gotten out next season in large ouan-
utles. On the beach he says there is q
large amount of the precious metal. but
machinery of the proper make will be
required before miners can realize any,
shing from their searches there. He saws
VIC DTe~SAA AAdS DSSn more tnOrOu2-llV
worked than the hills, and that many
miners have concluded that it is barren
OF gold, but he does not agree with them.
There is not the lawlessness about
Nome that characterized Dawson, saws
Mr.. Hallock, and as soon as there is
some kind Of permanent regulation or
system protecting a prospector in his
Claims against being jumped by others,
there will be no lawlessness at all and
Everybody bill be benefited thereby.
There has been no suffering at Cape
Nome and there Is not likely to be any
this winter as the miners have ample.
Supplies to last them until spring Food
and other things are easy to get and
prices are reasonable. so that this will
protect the miners against dangers en-
countered in most Of the Alaska mining
camps. There are only about Il, 900 of the
inhabitants remaining there this winter.
Mr.. Hallock believes that the influx next
year viii only be half as great as it was
during the year closing. He thinks the
emigrants will be of a much better class
and that 1t will pave the way for favor
able developments at Nome.
