1t is with pride that we review the

What they have accomplished il far in

The Sun predicts that Tom Horn will
make a full and free confession of all the
crimes he has ever committed before
he goes to execution. Horn is naturally
of a boastful disposition and it would
give him great pleasure to know that
he would live IN history as one of the
most cold blooded men that the West
ever knew. He will not go to the gal
lows without rpeaking, and when he
does he may implicate others, though
this is by no means a sure thing.

TuE conviction Of Tom Horn, of muir
der IN the first degree. for the murder of
Willie Nickel on the 18th day OF july,
1901, which took place in Cheyenne OF,
last Friday, will do more to raise the
state of Wyoming in the estimation of
her sister states than anything that has
been done for the past twenty years.
Horns reputation as a "killer' had gone
abroad aud every one looked askanco at
the state. Now that we have exhibit
ed nerve enough to throttle the murder
err and convict him and now that we
propose to bring those who are accessur-

to hold up our heads. The verdict was
just what everyone knew ought to be
the result Of the trial, yet few dared to
hope for it, knowing the terrible amount

Streets of Old Eexpt.

Some very interesting papyri were
unearthed at Fayum, in Egypt, and
among them was a directory showing
the location Of the streets in the an
Gent city Of Arsinoe. In many re-
spects this directory is very similar to
q modern one.
Here. for example, are the names of
the principal streets in Arsinoe: School
street, Lower street, South street, West
street, Cloth street, Arabian street,
tThracian street, Cicilian street, Deme-
trius street, Therapeia street, Church
street, King street and Emperor's
square.
Some of these names may seem
strange to US, yet If we analyze them
we shall find very little difference be-
tween them and the names of the
streets in modern cities. In New York
city there is no Thracian street or De
metrius street, but are there not Lit
tie Italy and Madison square New

weeping at a wedding.

A Chinese marriage is all ceremony
no talk, no levity and much crying.
The solemnity Of a funeral prevails.
After the exchange Of presents the
bride is dressed with much care in a
red gown, brocade or silk, If she can
get it; her eyelashes are painted deep
black, and she wears a heavy red veil
attached to a scarlet headdress, from
which imitation pearls are pendent
over the forehead. A feast is spread
upon table, to which the blushing
bride is led by five of her best female
friends. They are seated at the table,
but no one eats. The utmost silence
prevails, when, finally, the mother leads
off in a cry, the maids follow and the
bride echoes in the chorus. Then all
the bridesmaids leave the table and
the disconsolate mother takes a seat
beside the chair of state where the
bride sits The bridegroom now enters
with four of his best men. The men
pick up the throne on which the bride
sits, and preceded by the bridegroom,
form in procession and walk around
the room or into an adjoining parlor,
signifying that he is carrying her away
to his own home. The guests then
throw rice at the happy couple, Gus
tom we have borrowed from the
heather.

A pitch Lake.

Trinidad, an island in the south At
lantic opposite the mouth Of the ORR
noco, is famous for it's pitch. There
are districts where there is pitch ev-
erywhere. The beach is pitch, and so
are the "rocks," some of which have
been carried off to supply Paris and
New York with tar pavements. At La
Brea pineapples grow to perfection in
a brown soil which is half pitch. But
the wonder Of the isle is the pitch lake
mile and half in circumference.
AS it lies glittering in the sun it looks
like a vast bed of monstrous mush-
rooms, all black and of all kinds Of
shape and size,, some measuring as
much as fifty feet across. The space
between these unlovely objects is filled
with oily water. In parts of the lake
the pitch is quite liquid, and the ground
all round is full Of pitch and coaly
stuff to depth of hundreds Of feet.

The penguin.s Bump of Locality

On shore the penguin is an awkward
creature. Water is it's element. When
hunted on the ice foes, the birds gen.
orally try to run away in an upright
position, but just as the hunter thinks
he has got one the bird lies down on it's
white belly and paddles along over the
snow very quickly, the hard, smooth
quilts slipping over the snow crystals
almost without friction. A remarkable
Characteristic of the penguin is his
bump of locality. Both on shore and
in the water he never loses his way.
To human eyes one ice foe is precisely
like another, but under that roof of
similar ice foes have seen penguin
of the larger species find it's mate on
foe after diving and swimming for
full mile under water.-Leslie's.

Professional Pride.

Newspaper men, from great editors
down to rural correspondents, are
proud of their profession, although not
all sit as secure as John Black, for
many years the chief of the London
Chronicle.
Black supported the Melbourne ad-
ministration in his paper, yet he never
asked favor of any of the ministers.
On one occasion Lord Melbourne said
to him:
"You are the only man in England
who forgets that am prime minister"
GLOW so, my lord?" inquired Black,
supposing that he had been inadver-
tently disrespectful.
Because" replied Melbourne, you
are the only man l know who never
asks IL favor Of me-"

Postage Stamps Are Very Modern

Postage Stamps Are Very Modern.
The man who has the mania for col
lecting postage stamps is known tech
nically as philatelist. Philately was
much ridiculed in it's early days and is
still by those not acquainted with it's
value.
Postage stamps, as but few are
aware, are of recent invention, and it
is only since 1910 that letters have
been stamped. With the advent Of the
postage stamp rates were greatly low
cred. Before that in England the
charge for sending a letter the short
est distance was siXpence, but with
the introduction Of the stamp it fell to
a penny. The introduction of the post
al system as it at present exists in
nearly every country on the globe is
credited to Great Britain, which in
1910 issued covers and envelopes to
prepay letters all over the kingdom.
This plan was adopted through the eX-
ertions Of James Chalmers. although
the honor has long been given to Sir
Rowland Hill.
The first country to follow England
was Brazil. In 1S42 a set of three
stamps was issued, consisting simply
of large numerals denoting the value
printed in lGGck. Then came the can
tons of Switzerland and Finland with
envelopes which today are very rare;
next came Russia. United States,
France, Belgium, Spain, Bavaria, and
other countries followed in the train.

The Geisha.

"Geisha," the professional girl en-
tertainer Of Japan, is by no means to
be COMPOUNDED with "geinin," says
Japan and America. The word geisha
really means actor, "gei" meaning a
play or entertainment of any sort, and
'sha" means a person. For instance,
i-sha means physician, and so on. The
word really means what factor" does
in English, but it has come to mean
only those girls in Japan who are
trained to entertain by dancing and
singing to the shamisen and koto, the
usual musical instruments for light en-
tertainments, and they also are trained
to converse agreeably on topics Of the
day. "Geinin," on the other hand.
while it really means the same thing
as geisha, has now come to be applied
to artists, in higher sense.
