Alcohol Attire at Frank H. Eggleston's
Drug Store.

What might have been a serious con-
Migration was prevented at Frank H.
Eggleston's drug store Saturday after
noon by prompt action and a condi-
ton of scrupulous cleanliness in the
cellar. George Marsh went into the
basement to draw some alcohol, and
after filling a large bottle struck a
match to be sure that the flow Of the
liquid from the barrel had been stop
ped. It seems that some of the alco-
hol had been spilled on the floor and
when the lighted match was thrown
down a blue fame Immediately envel-
oped the bottle. Mr.. Marsh received
a bad cut over one eye and several
burns on his face. Harry Cordiner
was in the store above and hearing the
explosion of the bottle, rushed to the
rescue and soon succeeded in extin-
gushing the flames. Fortunately there
was nothing of an inflammable nature
in the cellar except the spilled alcohol
or a serious fire might have resulted.

AT THE
Many Visitors to This State Institu-

After the delightful shower Sunday
noon, a number of people We're tempted
to drive to the fish hatchery, as there
! was no dust or wind. They all arrived
safely and had visited the the outside
ponds, ETC., when one of our mountain
storms came up. They were safely
housed in the hatchery building and
watched the grandeur of the storm with
its accompanying thunder and light
ming. After the storm had somewhat
abated e suggested the holding
of a Sunday school. Many other sug-
gestions were made but all decided they
would rather have a scientific lecture
or fish culture. After much persuasion,
Mr.. Land entertained the company with
a most interesting talk on ichthy ology,
demonstrating the facts as he went
along. All were highly entertained and
instructed and felt very glad that it
stormed. There were people present
from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast.
Only a few of the names could be OBJ
tanned. Among the guests were Dr.. and
Mrs. Stevens, Miss Stevens. Miss Met

MILITIA CALLED
MAY BE SENT TO ROCK SPRINGS
TO PROTECT LIVES OF
CHINESE.
State officials Act Promptly-Several
Outrages Are Reported to Have
Been Committed Against Chinese
T~here-Every Precaution is Being
Taken to Prevent Trouble.

A special from Cheyenne to the Den
yer Republican says that a number of
outrages have been committed by for
eigners upon the Chinese residents of
Rock Springs, a coal mining town 200
miles west of here, on the Union Pa
cific railroad, during the past few days.
AS a consequence, the state authori-
ties have ordered several companies Of
militia to hold themselves in readiness
to proceed to Rock Springs on short
notice.
There are several hundred Chinese
employed in the coal mines there, and
they are belivd to be in danger of mol
violence.
The population of Rock Springs is
made up principally of foreigners of
all nationalities, and the feeling
against the Chinese has been bitter
during the past week as a result Of the
outrages of the Boxers at Tien Tsin
and Picking. While there has been no
%bloodshed as yet, it is believed by GER
tain officials that the situation at the
coal camp is a serious one, and the au-
thorities say they realize that they
must act quickly in the matter.
State officers and those in command
of the Second regiment will not discuss
the difficulty, but it is known that ev-
cry %precaution is being taken to pre-
vent trouble. 1t is believed that all
necessary equipment and rations will
be issued to the Cheyenne companies
tomorrow and the Union Pacific will be
asked to transport the troops to the
scene If the troops are needed.
Ten or twelve years ago a number of
Chinese were murdered by foreigners
at Rock Springs and their homes des-
troyed by the mob. The Chinese gov
eminent demanded and was paid an
indemnity by the United States and a
treaty was entered into whereby the
| United States agreed to maintain a
| force of soldiers at Pilot Butte camp,

Tuesday over Bryan and Stevenson by
a majority so decisive as to sound the

According TO the returns received
yesterday, the Republicans swept all
the states they had counted on and
nearly or quite all of the doubtful
states. Bryan secured only the South,
excluding Maryland, Delaware, West
Virginia and probably Kentucky, and
a few states in the silver section.
The Republicans have held their
