Cultivate a Low Voice.

We should strive to make our.
selves agreeable to other people
by looking closely after our man.
ners and speech. There are few
things that are go unruly and hard
to control as the voice. If it is
loud, harsh and strident, it CRATES
on the nerves of every sensitive
person in the room, and, besides,
it shows a disposition to disregard
the feelings of others. Every one
should cultivate a low tone OF
voice, distinct and clear, yet mod
ulated so hat it would not offend
the ears of an invalid in the same
room. a shrill tone of voice is
very unpleasant at any time, but
especially so in u drawing room on
parlor.

GETTING READY FOR
THE TIE DRIVE.
The Carbon Timber Company Winding
up Its Business on Brush, Barrett. and
French Creeks. Preparatory to Starting
Their Drive.

Forest Supervisor, F. D. Whit
ney, who has just returned from a
visit to the Carbon Timber Com
pany's tie camp, located on Bar
rett creek, informs The Sun that
the company has all its ties bank
ed on Brush, Barrett and French
creeks, and is now ready to begin
the drive as soon as the water
rises. They have 250,000 ties on
the banks of those creeks which
will be driven to Fort Steele and
there banked.
The Company have inaugurated
"A different plan for housing and
boarding the men employed on
the drive this season from any
thing that has been in use here
tofore. Instead of employing
teams, wagons and tents, as for
merly, "A large flat boat will be
constructed and hoated along the
river and tied up at convenient
points for the men. In this way
the men will always be near their
lodgings, and their surroundings
will be much more comfortable
and pleasant.
Mr.. Whitney is of the opinion
that there is not nearly so much
snow in the Medicine Bow range
us in the Continental Divide.
This is contrary 10 the reports
that have come in from the Medi-
cine Bow range heretofore, but
Mr.. Whitney has examined the
range to some extent and. being ii
timber man. his views are entitled

abundance of snow for irrigation
purposes.
The nov is melting very rapid

ney says there is no bottom TO the
roads wherever this is the case.

Didn't Reach Heaven.

The editor of a rural newspaper
was in Philadelphia during the
week following the shooting of
President Mckinley and noted
with surprise the promptness of
the newspapers to bulletin board
the hourly reports of the presi-
dents condition. He determined
to adopt the idea on all important
events when he should return
home. Soon afterward he was
told one morning by the local
physician that Deacon Jones vas
seriously ill. The deacon was a
person of some distinction in the
community, so the editor posted "A
series of bulletins as follows:
1000 a. m.-Deacon Jones no

"l1:00 a. m.-Deacon Jones has
relapse"
"l2;3O p. m.--Deacon Jones

slight rally"
"2:3O p m.-Deacon Jones fam
lily has been summoned"
$40 p. m.-Deacon Jones has
died and gone to heaven"
Later in the afternoon a travel
ing salesman happened by, stop
ped to read the bulletins, aud
going to the bulletin board made
another report concerning the
deceased. 1t was:

ENCAMPMENT- PLATTE
VALLEY DITCH co,
incorporated Here Tuesday Capital
Stock sl3, 200 Will Cover LOO Acres
of Valuable Land-Nine Miles in
Length and Completed in 1904.

Articles of incorporation were
drawn up here Tuesday, whereby
the Encampment-P Platte Valley
Ditch Company came into exis-
lance, with Hon. l.. G.. Davis as
President, Loren f. Gross Secre-
tary and Treasurer and Robert Il.
Wood General Manager. The
boaad of trustees consist of five
persons and those who will man
age the affairs of the company for
the first year ale as follows: R. A.
Day, X. L. Wood, Loren + Gross,
L.. q. Davis and Z. p. johnson.
There are 1872 shares valued at
500 each.
The ditch will head in the En-
campment river a quarter of a
mile from where that stream emp
ties into the North Platte river,
and will be nine miles in length.
1t will be IL feet in width and from
two to three feet in depth, varying
with the nature of the ground.
There are LOO acres If sage
brush land on the west side of the
North Platte river which this
ditch will cover. situated west of
the ranches of r. A. Day and l..
G.. Davis, both of whom are inter-
ested in the company and have
land that will come under the
ditch. The land is very fertile
and, when covered with water, is
capable of raising grain, hay, pas
ture, fruit and vegetables of a
character and variety that cannot
be beaten in any country in the
world.
The prime movers in the ditch
are Loren E. Gross, r. L. Wood
and E. p. Johnson, who lately
came to this country, seeking a
location. They looked the coun-
try i've very carefully and then
made their selection of a site and
that they have chosen a good one
there can be no doubt. The con-
struction of the ditch is a work
of considerable expense and time,
but, once made, it will be a source
of revenue forever. The land.
which is now practically valuless,
will be worth at least $40 per acre
the day the ditch is completed,
but it is not at all probable that
either of the men named would
consent to part with the interest
they now hold for double that
sum. The future holds a fortune
in its hands for the three men
named, and they are as well aware
of that fact AS any one and intend
to take what fortune is Offering
them.

A very large audience we're pres.
ent in Jensen hall when the cur
tain went up Monday evening, on
the occasion of the entertain
ment given by the members of
the Saratoga Chapter, Order of
the Eastern Star. Wilcox's or.
chestra opened the exercises with
an overture, following which was
a splendid violin solo by Mrs. j.
w. Heather, in which she was nc
companied by Mrs. Gustave Jen-
sen. A reading by Mrs. Tilton,
which came next, was much II
joyed. Mrs. Jensen then favored
the audience with an instrumental
solo, which brought forth a hear
ty moore. G. L. Jensen, in a vo-
cal solo, was a very acceptable
number of the program, after
which l.. :. Trapp gave a reading
that vas probably enjoyed as
much as anything of the evening.
Mrs, TiIton then closed the first
half of the program with the beau
tiful song, The Holy City"
The audience was then RECALLED
with a roaring farce, entitled
Patrick McNoggarty,' in which
a. j. Doggett distinguished him
self in the title role. From be
ginning to end he kept the audi
ence in a roar and made a decided
hit. A selection from Wilcox's
orchestra closed the exercises of
the evening, after which the seats
were removed and the hall turned
into "A ball room. where the dane
ers enjoyed themselves until a late
hour in the morning. Refresh
ments were served on the stage by
the ladies' of the Star and the en-
teriainment netted them about $40
afterall expenses were paid, which
goes toward making a payment on
their piano.
During the early part of the
evening both the audience and
the persons engaged ON the stage
were much annoyed by the whistl-
ing and uncanny noises made by
some of the boys. Prof. Trapp,
the stage manager, called them
down for such conduct, after which
The utmost decorum prevailed
The Professor deserves the thanks
of every lover of good order for
his action in the matter, and can
not be too highly commended for
having the courage to face the
unruly element in a quiet manly
way that meant business. 1t is to
be hoped that all future entertain
ments will enforce the same rule
and bar the whistling element, for
it is a relic of rowdyism that can
be we'll dispensed with.
