patron of the patent office all his life.
AS the head or the Freeman Manufac-
turing company, the principal indus
try in that village, he employs 300 men
In the manufacture of wooden-ware
novelties. Many of the machines used
In his plant are of his own invention,
while at the Chicago worlds fair he
was given a gold medal for having pro-
duced one Of the forty inventions,
which, in the opinion Of the fair COM
mittee had worked the greatest revOl-
ution in mechanical methods in recent
years. Mr.. Freeman's invention was a
machine for cutting potato mashers
and wooden spoons and in his factory
today it does in ten hours the work
which required one man month to do
before.
Naturally the inventor is wel-to.do.

Faculty of Imitation In Animals.

Some animals have wonderful powers
Of imitation. Dogs brought up in the
company of cats have been known &C
acquire the trick of licking the paws
and then washing the face When
cat has been taught to sit up for food
her kittens have been known to imi-
tate her action. Darwin tells Of cat
that was in the habit of putting her
paw into the mouth of a narrow milk
pitcher every time she got the chance
and then licking the cream of her paw.
Her kitten soon learned the same trick
A lady tells Of a rabbit that she keeps
in 3 cage with a monkey and says that
BunnIe has caught many of the
monkeys ways. 1t is said that starv-
ing pigeons that have been brought GE
on grain will not eat peas TO save their
lives. but that if pea eating pigeons are
put with them they follow their ex-
ample and eat peas.-DCtroit News

New York.s Harbor Eagles.

Above the pier-clOse to il and to-
gether, as If for comfort-huddled a
cluster of tugs, those curious, power
full, persistent little steam craft that
ply back and forth and up and down.
saucfly and busily Important their
rows of tenders trailing in the water,
their BLACK smoke bannering out be-
hind Often I had watched them nos
ing in and out among the heavier craft,
nudging a great ocean liner into mid
stream and singly or together pushing
or pulling some huge helpless bulk, as
an ant or as two might seize and
trundle a great dead bumblebee- Their
power and their impudence had filed
me with wonder. Viewing them now
In repose, 1 was impressed by the fact,
hitherto unconsidered, that upon al
most every pilot house was a golden
eagle with extended wings-a symbol
Of power and swiftness-and it was
borne in upon me that the tug in truth
is the harbOr eagle, with all other craft
for its prey -Scribner's.

How He Evaded the Suicide Law.
Lord Chief Justice HankfOrsl OF Eng
land. who lived in = former century, not
withstanding his high position became
so tired of life that ne determined to
shuttle of this mortal coil. But he
feared TO commit suicide, because at
the time a verdict of felo de Sc follow

of the suicide was,buried at four cross
roads, with a stake thrust through Il
Further, he had to avert the conse-
quences to his relatives OF forfeiture
of his goods. which was also one of the
penalties for self destruction. He adopt
ed a novel expedient- Several Of his
deer having been stolen. he gave orders
TO his keepers to shoot any person they
met in or near the park at night who
did not Immediately stand when chal-
Ienged. Then on q dark night he threw
himself in the path of the keepers
and. not answering the challenge, was
shot dead on the spot The stump of

Trees and Rnfnfnll.

Some persons ask If trees affect rain
fall That question is one on which
foresters differ, but the large majority
are satisfied they do induce rainfall
Vonmulere. Schenck and many others
are emphatic in the claim that forests
induce rainfall 1t is certain they re-
tain humidity to Il great extent, and
that alone would affect the RAINFALL;
but the point on which all agree is the
value of forests for the conservation
Of water. preventing floods or drought.

woshineton Gould Run.

"As to running" said Parson Weems
IN his book on George Washington,
"the swift footed Achilles could scarce
ly have matched his speed. ESad, he
ran wonderfully! said my amiable and
aged friend, John Fitzhugh. Esq, who
knew him we'll. We had nobody here
abouts who could come near him.
There was young Langhorn Dade OF
westmoreland, a confounded, clean
made, tight young fellow and mighty
swift runner, too; but, then. he was no
match for George. Langy. indeed, did
not like to give up and would brag
that sometimes he had brought George

His Turn Next.

The lola (Kan) Register tells of a
little girl with the measles. Her dog
was IN great distress because he could
not go to her, and one day he was ad-
mitted to the bedchamber. Putting
his forefeet on the bed he madly
wagged his tail and beamed gladness
from every feature. Looking at him a
moment, the little girl said angrily,
"Oh, you needn't grin; your turn Will

when AnfmuIs Faint.

The little gray dog tumbled head
long into the area, and the maid who
happened to be standing there closed
the gate. When the dog saw she was
safe from her two legged pursuers she
toppled over in a dead faint At any
rate, the maid insisted that she faint
ed. The boarders, who crowded out
into the area to help bring the little
animal to, derided the assertion, but
the doctor that finally Joined the group
said there was nothing prepOsterous
about it.
"Of course she tainted" he said.
Lots of animals faint Cats and dogs
and even more stolid animals keel
over in moments of fear and exhaus-
ton. In the case of horses the pros
tration is generally attributed to sun
stroke. but quite often they are knock
ed out by plain, everyday faint in
stead of atmospherical eXceSSes. Fowls
faint too, and the birds Of the air. In
fact, it is hard to find any living crea-
ture that doesn't topple over in crucial
circumstances. If the liOneSs of the

be just as much justified in carrying

A marriage license was issued late
yesterday afternoon to William H. Arp
of Laramie and Hattie c. Finn of Port
land, Ore.
The county commissioners were in
session today. At the forenoon session
the bills of the month were allowed.
the reports Of the county and precinct
officers examined and approved and
the court house building inspected.
There is a leak in the roof Of the build
ing and the commissioners were up
there to examine it.
Judge Carpenter of the district court
today declared unconstitutional the law
providing for the closing of the saloons

the other section of the chapter having
been SO declared, the legislature did
not intend to enact one without the
other, and that both must fall togeth.

held that the act closing certain places
Of business was unconstitutional. The

matter and governs the saloons in ev-
cry particular, as far as this city is
concerned. and until the supreme court
reverses the finding Of the Judge Of

No thought for other folk.

Alas. alas, alack!"

REMAINS
OF AUGUST PACHE LAID TO REST
IN THE CITY CEMETERY
HERE THIS AFTERNOON.
Accompanied to the City by the Wife
and Children, Met at the Depot by
Undertaken Stryker inc Inferred
With the Simple Service Of Meth
odist Church by Pastor Bross.

The body of August Pache. the Big
Laramie ranchman who was killed sew
eral days ago by his 1~4-year-o'd son,
Louis Pache. at their ranch in Lar
inner county. Colo, arrived here at lis
o'clock this afternoon. on train No. 3,
from Fort Collins. accompanied by
Mrs. Pache. the boy and three small
children. The body was met at the
depot by Undertaken Stryker, who had
it conveyed to the city cemetery and
inferred in a grave previously dug,
Mrs. Pache and her children following
the remains to the cemetery and be-
ing present when Rev. F. w. Bross of
the Methodist church conducted brief
burial services. The following gentle
men acted as p~allbearers: Messrs.
G. w. LovejOy, Elmer Lovetoy, N. K.
Boswell and J.. W. Stryker. Not to ex-
coed fifty people were present when
the coffin vas taken from the pine
box and placed in Mr.. Stryker's wagon
for conveyance to the cemetery. Mrs.
Pache and her children remained / n
the waiting room at the depot until
the arrival of a carriage, and were as.
sisted by Rev. Bross to seats in the
vehicle.
The story of the killing need O be
repeated here, being familiar to the
readers of The Republican, having first
been given publicity in these columns.
The bringing of the body here and its
removal later to Fort Collins, where
an inquest was held, has delayed the
burial, and the casket was not opened
here. Mrs. Pache was attired in deer
mourning. A good many eyes were
directed to the boy. Louis Pache,
whose stature is not much greater
than that of a boy half his age. The
sympathy of many was expressed for
him as he sat in the waiting room.
