Of the var department telling Of the de-
ceis Of native officials and Indicating
some Of shs difficulties facing the civil

Rombion and says:
"a party Of ls, consisting cf several
teachers aEd Gov. Sans, arrived st tie
island Of Bsuton, where the people
turned out to give Us welcome, ss the
visit Of the governor is always 8 big
event. After We had taken luncheon,
the teachers to be located in Bau:ou
hsd their baggage urloaded and placed
in the convent, where they were to be
ouartered. Gov. Sans then called al
the citizsns together in the tribunal and
gave them certain orders, after which
introduced the American teachers.
Just as we were about to leave he csll-
ed the presidente as.d, 1or nom ant,
telling him the teachers would nov be
left in his charge and he would be held
responsible for them. At this the
presidente began &c shake and tremole,
ard after con siderable stsmmering and
hesitation he said it Goulc. be impos.
siole to guarantee the teachers safe

Finally he broke down and con-
fsssed .has only few days before be

able to leave the teachers in such
dangerous neighborhood, and the gov

Our reporter noticed that-a carloaI q of vehicles had been shipped in here and were being peddled out to the ranchers. We inquired of our dealers if this could be done as cheaply as they could sell the same class of ve- hicles and were assured that it could not. and if any rancher would stop to figure little he would see that he is paying from 25 to 30 per cent more for these vehicles than he would have tu pay to the local dealer for the same vehicle. These people pay $100 for i censes for each peddler: then they have the expense of team hire. feed bills. help. hotel bills and rent. and these items, without counting salaries. are about S35 per day. and this the pur- chaser always pays. Then he is buy ing from strangers and those who have no interest h the valley instead of deal ing with those who are trying to up build the community. These people sol on long time and of necessity their losses from bad debts are great. and these losses are paid by those who settle their notes or buy for cash. It's all figured in the price. We are aS- sured by our dealers that such wagons as these parties sell -or $175 they will furnish at s125. and buggies for sIC0 that they sell for $40.
 Everything a local dealer sells is guaranteed and anything that goes wrong he at once makes good. Those from a distance make a similar guar antee, but the purchaser must return the defective part and a new one will be sent. TEis takes time and the use of the vehicle is lost while the parts are in ti ansif-

LICENSE ON SNAKES
Why an Instructive Entertainment
 Was Postponed.

Deputy Sheriff w. A. Moeuer lis tenn porarily engaged in the snake fusiness. That is. he is not personally in bosses sion of the snakas and is not exercising immediate supervision over the charmer. but he has enough influence over the reptilian aggregation to pre- vent it's further publicity until the county license has been paid. That for mality had not been complied with when the show opened last night and ia consequence the doors were almost i'm mediateIy closed. The deputy sheriff was once on the point of giving way to the entreaties of the snake charmer. q thin and spirituelle looking female, and letting the show proceed. He would probably have disregarded his official oath and have done so, but Seth Byers stood around and exhorted him to be firm and do his duty ne saw it.
 Mir. Byers said the county did not owe that show anything. After that the snake charmer might well have wept before a stone image as before Mir. Moeuer- The biggest snake on earth was put back into it's box and the as sembled multitude went away cursing the memorable law which makes the payment of licenses necessary. The authorities were hopeful that they might find some way out of it and so permit the show to go on for the edi- fication of the young. who had gath cred about in great numbers, but MT. Phelps Gilmore. who had accompanied the officer in the capacity of his legal adviser. said the law was plain and must be upheld though the heavens fall. If, said MT. Gilmore, the law were disregarded in this apparently harmless instance, bars would be led down for anarchy and the most dreadful conse- quences might reasonably be expected to ensue.

They did not do it once, but several

Townsend. They took their plunge on
a wager of $50 with Robert and Harry

The cold weather and the frigid

HAZE YOUNG GATES. -
- Of The Steel and Wire Magnate
Resolves Rough Treatment In
NEW York stock Exchange.

Cbale. G.. Gates, a son of John W.
Gates, chairman of the American Steel
and Wire company, vas the other day
elected a member of the New York
stock exchange, his admission being
marked by a revival of the "hazing' OF
new members, which lately has been
somewhat neglected.
Mr.. Gates. who is a quiet young man,
was warned by some Of his friends of
what he might expect when he APP
peared on the floor and accordingly he
prepared for a hearty reception by
wearing his old clothes and three or
four collars. Brokers, learning ofthese
preparations, made preparations them
selves first, however, assuring Mr..
Gates that -out of respect for the gov
ernos of the exchange he would be let
off easy" Encouraged by this assur-
ing talk. Mr.. Gates at W O'Clock zen
tured upon the floor, where he was re-
ceived in a manner to him quite enthus-
siastically unnecessary.
One member seized him by the right
arm, another by the left, another by the
coat collar, and numerous others
wheresoever they could lay their hands
upon him. Then. none too gently, they
guided him to the steel and wire trad
ing post. where he was welcomed most
af~fectionately. One broker embraced
him; another. DESTROYS of a memento
snatched one Of MI. Gates collars off
two other members grappled for other
collars, while in the meantime small
sized riots were being held over the re
mains of Mr.. Gates hat and tie.
A few moments later a dilapidated
looking individual emerged from q
group of scuffing, perspiring brokers
It was Mr.. Gates.
