TROUT FISHING.

A writer in outing presents the most
beautiful picture Of the joys Of angling
It has ever been our lot to read:
silent as an otter the man moves
into the water till it curls about mis-
knees. An arm sways back and forth
and an insect f~utters softly upon the
surface Of the pool some yards away.
Quickly the arm sways again, ana
again an incest kisses the surface OF
the water. A flash of a silvery cfes-
cent, a splash in the water, a sudden,
stronger swirl in the writhing current,
then q sharp metallic discord rasps
out against the song Of the blFdss
The mans eyes blaze with . swift
eager light, his cheek Pushes slighsiy;
there Is then expectation in every Inc
Of his face. His right hand clin8y ~
on the wand. the rasping diseeeA

while two keen eyes rivet upon : -

is fought the good fight, till skill
conquers. Within the fatal let CLEANS
a shining belly and pearl-bordered fms
above u streak of olive gemmed with
ruby spangles. The mans face CLOVIS
with pride as he carefully bears his
captive to the shore. Upon a fragrant
bier of freshest green within the creel
a dead king lies in state. All day the
silent man creeps hither and thithel
along the stream casting, fighting
waiting, noting many things. unit
darkness falls; then homewart
through the scented shadows. with
whisper of falling song from darkenet
copses. The mans feet are tied will

cut deep into his shoulder, but hi

report viii show. in tact, that college
men are in the lead in the various
lines of endeavur coveJe ed by the hives
ligation.
Until the complet. report Is publish
ed 1t is obviously impossible to esti.
mate the value of its deductions
Moreover. even though it is shown that
the ma iority OF the 10000 successful
men are college graduates. it does not
n~ecessa lily prove INA: the college
training was the key of their success.
While the statistics will no doubt be
interesting anu valuable, it is a safe
guess that they will not disturb the
now generally accepted truism tina,
whether a college education is an aid
to success or not depends largely upon
what a man starts out to accomplish
in life.-Record Herald.

The Pistol.

The righteous war against the car
rying OF pistols is still going bravely
on all over the country and the mayors
OF the larger cities are making it red
not for everyone who violates the law.
This is right. No man ever carried
one that he did not intend to kill some
II with it. If he does not intend to
kill some one, why does he carry a
very often a man who if he had gone
unarmed as he ought to. would have
been a respected citizen. becomes a
Gagged murderer with a weeping, wild
owed wife and worse thar orphaned
children at home.
We used to feel at times as though
here in this western country We we're
having a pretty lonesome time of it,
never having killed anybody. and we
began to think hat in order to COM
mand respect We would have to start a
private cemetery. SO one time when
We had a good opportunity we drew our
pop on a man and shot at him.
He often writes to us now and tells
us how healthy he is. Before We shot
at him he used to have trouble with HIS
digestion, and every spring he was SO
bilious that he didn't care whether he
lived or not. Now he weighs 200 and
looks forward to a long and useful
life.
Still the revolver is not always a
health-promoter. 1t is more deadly as
a general rule for the owner than any
one else. Half at least of the distress
ing accidents that occur as q result of
carrying a pistol. are distressing main
ly to the man who carries the weapon.
We sometimes think that if editors
would set the example, INT instead of
going around armed to the teeth.
would rely on the strength of their no.
BILE manhood and a white oak club.
others would follow and discard the
pistol. For a year we have been using
a club. with the best results, and al
though the exercise has been pretty
severe at times, the death rate has
been considerably reduced. and many
of our citizens have been spared to
bless the community with their pres
ence.
Let the press of the country take
hold of this thing, and the day will
come when a man may enter the edi-
torial Office as fearlessly as now he
goes into the p%ostofice.
Nothing unnerves a man like Ching
into a sanctum and finding fragments
of an old acquaintance scattered owe
the velvet carpet Or ruthlessly jammed
into a porcelain cuspidore.-Bil Nye.

DOES THE COLLEGE AID T(
SUCCESS.

Within the last few years the value
of a college education in business has
been more widely and vigorously chal-
lenged han at any other time in the
history of higher education. Timidly
and cautiously at first, but move bold
.ly and %defiantly as their Investigations
have progressed, certain men who
have attained large success in the in
dustrial world have bantered the col
lege professor into an attempt to show
that his goods" are worth the price.
One prominent manufacturer has gone
so far as to class the college presi-
dents and professors with charlatans
who obtain money under false pre-
lenses.
There are abundant signs that there
assaults are to have an effect upon the
colleges very similar to that produced
upon the church by the assaults of
the late Colonel Ingersoll. They
arouse the loyalty and zeal of college
men. They awaken the colleges to
the necessity of bringing their instruc-
ton into closer relation with the times
and with the work of life. They de-
velop a discussion which inevitably
results in a wider public intelligence
regarding the real purposes and aims
of college education, correcting the
manifest errors of its assaiiants and
placing the colleges on a basis where
their results are measured by culture
and breadth of attainment rather than
by financial or industrial achievement.
The most valuable contribution to
this discussion is about to be made
by the United States bureau or educa-
ton in the report which will give the
results Of investigations extending to
the lives of 10000 typical successful
Americant. The report, it is affirmed,
will show that "a college education
gives a man 200 times as many chances
OF success in life as that of the COM
mon schools and is ten times as valu-
able as a high school training" The

good name high aloft at the national

for the reclamation service in the
state Of wyoming an appropriation OF
three and a quarter millions of dollars;
the men who have secured the con.
sent of the national government to
construct splendid public buildings in
our leading cities; the men who have
brought to the state hundreds of thou.

repeal of our public land laws. And
when The Republican refers to our
congressional delegation as the men
who prevented the repeal of the public
land laws, it means exactly what it.

through their efforts the victory was

the welfare Of the entire west, for the
people of sister states look to them
for aid in time of need.
Thrice welcome to the Gem City of

Fifteen A AFTER.

He sees with critical eyes
The faults of her figure and face;
He remembers with sorrowful signs
Her former maidenly grace.
She is neither as slim nor as trim
AS she was when she won his heart
She has lost, it occurs to him,
The trick of appearing smart.
She used to be full Of life.
There was happiness in her smile;
When he asked her to be his wife
She was dressed in the smartest
style.
She has taken to sensible heels,
She has lost the bloom that he
priced;
Down in his bosom he feels
That he has been victimized.
Treasuring up chagrin,
He forgets that he once had a neck
Where nothing is now but chin;
In vain he has tried to check
The growth of his girth; the hair
That nce waved ove his brow
Has ceased to do duty there,
And his nose has turned red some
how.
He once was erect and slim,
He walked with a jaunty swing,
But time has taken from him
The step that was full Of spring.
He possesses a stoop, but not
The ardor he had Of old,
And he harbors the secret thought
That he has been badly sold.

EVER WATCHFUL.
A Little Care Will Save Many Laramie
Readers Future Trouble.

Watch the kidney secretions.
See that they have the amber hue OF
health;
The discharges not excessive or in,
frequent;
Contain no %'brick-dust like sedi
ment.
Doan's Kidney Pills will do this fol-
you.
They watch the kidneys and cure
them when they're sick.
They cure backache by curing the
kidneys.
P. P. Mason, retired, of COS Pine
street, says: For years | have been
subject to kidney complaint, particu
larly so in the winter when the pain
centered in my loins, causing consid
cradle misery and added to the aching
too frequent action of the kidney Sc
cretions existed, particularly observa'
BILE at night. An advertisement about
Doan's Kidney Pills led me to reason

ised they might do a little good, and
went to the Laramie Drug Co.'s store
for them. After their use for two OF
