Letters Marx Twain Gets.

Mark Twain is long suffering in the

with requests for favors from IN

received the impression that when
people find time hanging heavily on

a letter to him asking for something.
These requests are always preceded
by profuse compliments. I'm my

American. The remaining three Fill
pinos were armed with bolos. Upon

SHOW OF THE KIND EVER HELD
SAYS PROF. BUFFUM OF
THE UNIVERSITY.
Just Home from Attending the Live
Stock Exhibition at Chicago and
Talks Of the Good That will Re-
suit to Agricultural Colleges and
Live Stock interests.

Prof. B. C. Buffum, director of the
agricultural experiment station and
professor of agriculture in the Univer
sity of Wyoming, who has just return.
ed from Chicago. where he attended
the live stock exposition, said of that
institution this afternoon:
The live stock exposition this year
was probably the greatest show of the
kind the world has ever seen. OF cat
tie. horses, sheep and swine there were
in competition for the various prizes
over 5000 entries, not counting several
hundred special classes and champion.
ship rings for which extra prizes were
offered. The total paid for these cash
prizes amounted to about $50, 900.
One of the most notable features of
the exhibition was the part taken by
the agricultural colleges of the coun-
try. No greater proof of the value of
scientific feeding could possibly be of.
fered, than the fact that the grand
championship for fat steer was taken
by the Iowa agricultural college on
Shamrock. a grade Polled Angus. This
steer took first prize in his own class
and secured the grand championship
in open competition. Probably every
one has heard of Shamrock. He
weighed 1,SO5 pounds and was pur-
chased at auction by a New York
butcher at Sc cents per pound life
weight, bringing the college 81. O1O.80
in addition to the prizes taken by him.
It is expected his steaks at $1,000 each
will tickle the palates of the New York
Four Hundred during the holidays.
Other colleges came in for their
share of recognition and prizes. The
educational features of the exhibit are
lot to be overlooked and this vas
largely taken advantage of by several
of the most progressive agricultural
colleges in this country. Iowa sent
about $50 students, Minnesota over a
hundred, North Dakota 80 and Wiscon-
sin. Michigan. South Dakota and On.
tario agricultural colleges were all weis
represented. know of no way in
which a student could get such IN ac-
curate idea of what the best stock the
world produces is like than by attend
ing this show, and l sincerely hope
Wyoming may be represented with
students from our agricultural college
next year.
Secretary Wilson. who is one of
the greatest living opponents of agri-
cultural education. made a great
speech at the dedication of the Pure
Bred building and was especially
strong in his communication of institu-
lions sending students TO Chicago for
a weeks stay and competition in stock
Judging.
AN International Live Stock asso-
citation was formed, to which the I'm
ion Stock Yards company presented all
the buildings they will need for show
purposes during the next ten years. in
addition to giving them the Pure Bred
building. which cost 100000 to con-
struct. This puts the International
exposition on a permanent basis and
insures great future shows. The Pure
Bred building is to be used as a home
for the various live stock registry as
so~ciations."

NATIoNALISTS RAMPANT.
Imprisoned Condemnation of Brit.
ish Rule in ireland.

London, oct. 27.-An impassioned
condemnation of British rule In Ireland
was again heard o-night from the Ma
tlonalist section of the House of Com
mons. The proceedings We're OCCASION
ally interrupted by the taunts with
which these scenes are regularly ac-
companied. With the assistance of
number of Liberal members, including
Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman and
Sir William Vernon Harcourt the Ma
tionalists mustered sufficient votes to
permit William O'Brien to move the
adjournment of the House for the pur-
pose of discussing the proclamation of
the crimes act in Ireland. Mr.. OBrien
argued that the harsh administration
of this act was endangering the peace
of Ireland. He accused the chief sec
rotary for Ireland, Mr.. Wyndham, of
employing England's power to enable
the territorial magnates Of Ireland to
play their own game. He contended
that Dublin was much more peaceable
than Birmingham and said the Irish
were prepared to make generous terms
with the landlords II the latter would
act as Irishmen instead of posing as
"Countryless half-castes," anglo
Irish octoroons."
Other Irish members having spoken,
Mr.. Wyndham, in a defense OF the
government said illegal intimidation
must be suppressed: and, although he
disliked to use military terms, he de-
clared that pending the settlement of
peace between the contending forces,
the fighting must go on, a statement
which excited a fresh outburst, the
Nationalist members shouting, "A
very foolish observation" and I'VE ac-
cept the challenge" etc.
Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman
blamed the government for refusing
facilities for the discussion of Irish
matters and declared that Mr.. Wynd-
ham had failed to justify the enforce
ment of the crimes act He said that
after ten years of resolute government
Ireland had a Grimes act for it's Mag
ma Charta and Sergeant Sheridan as
the embodiment of law and ORDER

O'Brien's motion, which was defeated
by 215 votes to 121.

members of the commission and the
miners and mine representatives. Judge
Gray modified his suggestion, this time
presenting it in the shape of PROPOSE
ton that only one expert accountant
be appointed, who should anaIyze the
statement made by both sides to the
controversy and verify the facts for
the consideration of the commission.
Mr.. Baer promptly accepted this sug-
gestion, and Mr.. Mitchell followed suit
after brief explanation on his part.
The questions of the examination by
the commission into the conditions I'M
der which the mining of anthracite coal
is conducted was then entered on, and
Mr.. Watkins of the commission sug-
gested that a week or ten days time
would be necessary in order to make
an adequate examination of the physi-
cal conditions about the mines.
Mr.. Mitchell thought that not only
should there be an inspection of the
mines. but also of the homes of the
miners. He considered this investiga-
ton necessary to a complete under
standing of the subject.
Mr.. Baer offered to place a special
train at the disposal of the committee,
providing also for the accommodation
of a representative of miners.
The public meeting came to a close
and the commissioners consulted in
private. They unanimously decided not
to accept Mr.. Baer's offer of a special
train. The exchange of views which
followed brought out the fact that the
commissioners expect to personally pay
all of their expenses, ACCEPTING no
favors and relying on the government
to reimburse them if so disposed.

THE SAMPSON MATTER.
Name of schIey offered rs a Substi-
tute in Prize Money Case.

Washington, Oct. 27.-There was a
brief reminder of the Sampson Schley
controversy in the United States Su-
preme Court to-day in connection with
the case entitled THE United States
VS.. w. T. Sampson. Rear Admiral. and
Others" involving the distribution of
prize money because of the capture of
the Spanish cruiser Infanta Maria Te-
resa in the battle of Santiago.
The case came up for argument and
before the argument had begun. Chief
Justice Fuller suggested the necessity
of substituting some other name for
that of Admiral Sampson in view of
the admiral's death The court mani
tested a disposition to demur to a sug-
gestion that the case proceed under it's
present title, urging that the name of
some other naval officer could be used
that" he said. ''of Admiral Schley
or some one else"
The name of Admiral Schley did not
appear to meet with the approval of
the attorneys-s@esent representing the
naval officers. One of them, James II.
Hayden, responded that there would
be some difficulty about making a sub
stitution. If he said, there is to be
substitution, there remains but one
man who was an officer of the fleet,
and that is Capt. Chadwick, who was
Admiral SIMPSONS chief of staff. Ad-
miral Schley's duties were limited to
the command of a division of the
fleet"
Il had thought it possible" respond
ed the Chief Justice, that it might he
question of rank or title"
To the suggestion, Mr.. Hayden re-
piled:
IF Admiral Sampson had not been
present and in command then Admiral
Schley would have been in command
of the fleets, but as he was present
and in command"
The sentence was not completed. JUS
tice Harlan interrupted.
Present, where?" he asked.
The Chief Justice sc~med quite in
terested over the turn the case had
taken. His hands We're raised, as well
as his voice slightly, when he asked:
is that point involved In this case?
Being assured that it was not, the
Chief Justice then repeated his request
that name should be substituted for
that of Admiral Sampson, but he per
mitted the argument to go on. peffc:ing
the consideration of the point.
