Of 2O3 Mechanic street, corner of Sec

Iaying irritation Doan's Ointment is a
marvel. A peculiar eruption on my
scalp annoyed me for several months.
The itching was something terrible and If

followed. which ended in soreness. y

had the good fortune to learn about and
which was procured at Wells & Hayma<'

area of the parts affected until it com
pletcly dried up. / cannot too strongly
express my appreciation of Doan's oint'
ment. In hopes that this statement NAV

GIVEN A DOSE.
Denver Youth Have Taste Of Anger Of
the Judge.

Denver, Colo, March 1S.-"Fred
Wilson, l sentence you to the peniten-
tiary for a term of twelve to fourteen
years, and you, Carl Remington, to the
same place for from eleven to four
teen years." said Judge Mullins, as he
gazed s~erenely at two youths in front
of his bench in the West Side court
this morning.
Wilson and Remington are the kid
holdups" who, on the night of March
10, robbed the drug store of John A.
Bailey at 1888 Fourteenth street. They
were caDtured at Colorado Springs
last week. Before leaving the jail the
two young desperadoes jauntily told
the other prisoners that they would
plead guilty, throw a little ICON" at
the Judge. and rely upon their boyish
looks to secure for them a reformatory
sentence. But Judge Mullins felt that
hold up" was getting to be a con
tagious disease, and decided that a
long sentence was good medicine.

MARCH SNOW STORM
IN SOUTHERN WYOMING,

One of the most severe storms OF. the
winter set in here at 5 o'clock last af-
ternoon and it has been showing the
greater part Of the time since. More
than a foot of snow has fallen, but it
has not been very cold and in the mid
die of the day was thawing some.
A telephone message from Cheyenne
this afternoon says that a heavy snow
storm is raging there and it threatens
to grow worse.
The storm extends across the state.
There has been less snow between
Green River and Laramie than right
here, but it was colder out in the west
ern portion of the state and about
Rawlins the wind was blowing more
strongly.

Trainmaster H. l.. Anderson and

ton and Mr.. Norris as chief dispatcher
for the eastern district of the Wyoming

Mr.. Anderson has been Superintend-
ent Parks chief clerk so long hat he
knows every crook and turn of the
lines in his district, n Mr.. Norris,
who has been away lately, gets back

How do | like this snowstorm?" Mr..
Norris said to a reporter this morning,

was not already disguised with the
variable climate of the crest of the

young man, I'm perfectly at home in
this sort of weather, and enjoy it. You

is not much climate to speak of, and to
come here, where the air is SO pure
and exhilirating, why, its just like

Mr.. Anderson is a sort of step-father
to some of the younger men on the dis
trict, and is a warm-hearted, helpful
sort of a parent, which it is a real plea
sure to welcome to ones Preside. He
says this is his first trip over the dis
plenty to do, but the district is work

RIDING
BY THE COWBOYS OF THE LARA.
ME PLAIN AND DANCE AT THE
MAENNERcHoR HALL.
Lively Exhibition with Buckinng Horses
and Only One Little Accident to
Mar the PI~easure--Sixty Couples
Take Part In Grand March at First
Annual Ball.

The cowboys exhibition at the stock
yards yesterday afternoon, in progress
when The Republican went to press,
was concluded about 4:30, and was pro-
nounced by many the best exhibition
given here in years. The following
well known riders took part; Axel and
Gus Palmer of Red Buttes, Frank Stone,
Fred Bath, George Armstrong of Fort
Collins, J.. Lindsay of Granite canon,
Arch Schmidt, Bob Hunter. AL Fisher,
Fred Schneider, Guy Holt, Charlie
Irwin, Alb Clark, Gilbert Latta, Andy
Miller and Will Smith.
Only one accident occurred, and
that was not OF a very serious nature.
Fred Bath, one of the best riders on
the Laramie plain and a general ia
vorite with the crowd. was endorsed
and suffered an abrasion OF the left
cheek. He was mounted on one Of the
hardest pitchers Of the bunch, and at
one stage of the horses gyrations it
made as though it would fall backward.
This is one thing that a rough rider
fears above all others, and Mr.. Bath
took his feet from the stirrups, prepar-
ed to jump II of harms way If the
horse reared and fell backward. Thus
unprotected, the animal succeeded in
pitching him forward. Even then he

look upon as little short Of disgraceful
he did not pull leather" AS n of
them said afterward, in speaking of
the accident, he would rather be
thrown and trampled half to death
than to pull leather" Mr. Baths friends
assert that the horse Ices MOI live that
can unseat him in a legitimate manner
and they deplore the accident that be-
fel him yesterday afternoon.
The riding was good all the way
through. Frank Stone rode the noted
Coble horse, Steamboat" or of the
worst buckers in the Rock mountain,
and upon which Thad Sowder rode to
the worlds championship both at Chey-
enne and Denver. The animal was
brought down from the Coble ranch by
Charlie Irwin, the ranch foreman, on
purpose to be ridden by Mr.. Stone. and
the exhibition proved all that could
have been desired. Mr.. Stone stuck
like he was glued to the saddle and
the animal fought all over the lot with
out once getting a moments advant-
age.
The dance at night was the coup de
maitre of the days festivities. 1t was
held at the MAennerchor hall and was
attended by nearly one hundred cou,
pies of dancers, sixty couples joining
