Che of the problems that confronts
France. subsequent to the enforcement
of the new law governing religious In
stitutions. is what to do with the vast
properties and buildings OF the exiled
monastic orders.
In Paris two of the largest religious
estates are those OF the Carmelites.
They occupy ground Of high value ia
the capital and suburbs. There Is the
old convent in the Avenue de Messine.
snugly ensconced In a beautiful orch
ard, surrounded by a high wall, on
which is a balustrade surmounted by
Gothic sculpture. In front OF the con-
vent proper Is a high triangular We
randa. above which Is the inscription.
20 Maria immaculate: Regina Car
nell, ora pro nobis." What a mock
cry Is the ITO let or for sale sign
near 1t! Close to the figure of the Vir-
gin are the words "Propriete a vendre.

The vibrations OF the strings are
conducted by means OF an ordinary

ator. The lever supporting the bridge
oscillates laterally upon the body OF
the instrument. the end being at
tached to a diaphragm OF aluminium

phragm Is held In position between
two india rubber cushions by means
Of a specially designed holder nxed

lBiunders In he Type.

Errors OF the press often begin with
errors Of the reporters who have
misunderstood spoken words. The
rule of follow copy compels the com
positor to repeat the exact words writ
ten by the reporter and the following
plumbers are the result of obedience to
this rule. A speaker made this state
ment:
I'm these days clergymen are ex.
pected to have the wisdom and learn
ing of Jeremy Taylor" But the re-
porter wrote, and the compositor re-
peated: 50" . . the wisdom and
learning of a journeyman tailor"
Another speaker quoted these lines:
oh. come. thou goddess fair and free,
In heaven yclept Euphroyne.
They were printed as written:
Oh, come. thou goddess fair and free.
In heaven she crept and froze her
knee.
Another orator quoted this line
from Tennyson's "Locksley Hair:
Better fifty years Of Europe than a
cycle Of Cathay.
But the quotation was written and
printed:
Better fifty years in Europe than a
circus in Bombay.
One of the worst perversions OF a
hackneyed quotation Incorrectly Civ

seems to be the joint work OF the zeal.

STATE PRESS CLIPPINGS

Leader
Wyoming in the Cabinet.
Some weeks ago the Leader suggested
that within Il year Wyoming was quite
liable to have a representative in the
cabinet Of President Roosevelt and it
now seems from the dispatches from
Washington that have beer received
within the past forty eight hours that
our prediction is quite liable to be full
filed. 1t is announced hat Judge Van
Devanter, now assistant attorney geneT-
al. is liable to succeed Mr.. Hitchcock as
secretary Of the interior. OF course we
can but rejoice should such be the fact.
That Judge Van Devanter is amply
know him can have the slightest doubt
and the Leader does but. as we believe,
express the sentiments of the great
masses Of the people of Wyoming when
we say that such an appointment is not
only one OF the best President Roosevelt
could possibly make but that it would
be hailed with delight by the people Of
w yoming.
Veterans Should be Preferred.
Elsewhere in this issue of tae Leader
mention is made Of the application of A.
o. Hamilton, Of Rock Springs. for the
position of United States marshal for
the state Of Wyoming, and also of his
endorsement by Grand Army posts Of
Evanston. Rawlins. Laramie and Chey-
enne 10y resolution for the office TO
which ne aspires. Comrade Hamilton
and liz a member of Rawlins post. He
is Il reliable and trustworthy man in all
respects, and is competent for the posi-
ton.
On January 18th President Roosevelt
issued an executive order to each de
partment Of the government as follows:
The attention Of the departments is
hereby called TO the provisions of the
law giving preference to veterans in APP
pointments and retention. The pfesiden
desires that where the needs of the ser -.
vice will justify, and the law will per
nit. preference he given alike in APP
pertinent and retention to honorably
discharged veterans OF the civil wal who
are tit TO perform the duties of the plac-
es which they seek and are filling.
In addition to the fact that MIR. Ham
ilton is a veteran Of the civil war: that
he is endorsed for preferment by his
comrades i'm WyominU is the furthar
fact that he has recommendations from
other sources, including the Republican
county committee Of Sweetwater coun-
ty, who say that he is well qualified to
discharge the duties of which he aspires.
We understand that Sweetwater coup-
ty would be pleased to have such recog
