BOYS AND HENS.
Several Surprises About the Making of
Kid Gloves.

Barefooted boys and hens form a
curious partnership in the making of
pair of fine gloves. Thousands OF
dozens of hens eggs are used in cur
ing the hides, and thousands of boys
are employed to work the skins in
clear water by treading ON them for
several hours, says the Philadelphia
Record. When a woman buys a pair
Of kid gloves she speaks of her pur-
chase as kids" If the clerk who sold
her the "kid" gloves knew the secrets
of the glovemaking business he might
surprise his fair customer by telling
her that those beautiful, soft, smooth
fitting kid gloves came from the
stomach and shoulders of the 3-Teeks-
old colt, whose neck was slit on the
plains of Russia, and whose tender
hide was shipped, with huge bundles
they were made up into ''kid" gloves;
or he might, with equal regard to the
ruth, tell her that those gloves in the
nther compartment once darted from
cree to tree in South America on the
back of the ring-tailed monkey. And
If he made the rounds of the store
and could distinguish one skin from
another he could point out kid"
gloves made from the skins of kanga-
roos from Australia, lambs or sheep
from Ohio or Spain or England, calves
from India, muskrats from anywhere,
musk oxen from China and other parts
of Asia, rats, cats and Newfoundland
puppies. But the Russian colt, the
four-footed baby from the plains where
the Cossacks live. the colt from the
steppes of Siberia, where horses are
raised by the thousand, supplies the
skins which furnish the bulk Of the
dainty coverings for my lady's hands

The mining outlook for the molnt-
ain ranges on either side of the valley
never looked so well as at this time.
The range of good prospects has now
widened until not only the entire Con
t~inental Divide is acknowledged to be
full of rich copper prospects, but the
Medicine Bow range, especially Elk
Mountain. has begun to attract the at
tention OF the mining world. The large
bodies of pure copper glance, which have
been uncevered in this part Of the Med
ic;ne Bow range, give evidence that the

WHY

The Saratoga Sun registers a kick be
cause one or two of its articles were re
published week before last by one of its
exchanges without due credit. You will
get accustomed 10 that after Il while,
and just grin and bear it like we do.
Each week for over two years past the
Cheyenne and Laramie papers have
taken from one to Il dozen items from
the journal which they almost invari-
ably forgot to credit.-Rawlins journal.
1t is amazing to us hat any one
should want to deliberately appropriate
the product Of another mans labor, es-
pecially a newspaper article, for the tax
ing is always noted by the rest OF the
fraternity and the party held in the
Bame estimation that any wrong doer is
held.
Again: We are at loss to understand
what an editor means, when he takes
just such portions Of an article as suits
him, from some Of his exchanges and
presents it to his readers as all that pa.
per has had to FAY ON that subject. II
tld IN lol . AhlElNlNhNi'i W ~
at loss to know what namc'to call if. II
anothes editor copies such a mlsreprc.
sentation of course he is not to blame,
hut the original perpetrator Of such a
deed is certainly guilty nf gross misrep.
r%esentutiun to say the least.
Still another; What do the Chey.
enne papers mean when they condensr
an article taken from some of their eX-
changes and do it in such a careless and
negligent manner that they entirely
change the sense and menniug of the
entire article? A newspaper should
certainly attempt to give facts when 1T
attempts to give anything mics its
aim is to deliberately misrcprcsent facts,
as We know some Of them do in almost
everything which they print and then
kick because other papers don't re
print and swear that their lies are
trutl + II the most substantial kind.
