Turning Over a New Leaf.

lurnln9 over new Lear.
When Hyde awakened, he was in
that borderland between dreams and
day which we call dawn The noises
finally woke him thoroughly Il am
more alive than ever I was in my life,"
he said; and he laughed gayly, and
went to the window. 1T is a lovely
day; and that is so much in my
favor" he added, "for if it were rain
ing, Cornelia would not leave the
house."
Then he fell into reverie about his
proposed visit to Mrs. Adams Last
night it appeared to him an easy and
natural thing to do He was not
so sure of his position this morning.
But there are times when laissez-
aller carries before it, and Hyde was
in just such a mood. "I'll run the
chance" he said. "I'll risk it. III
let things take their course" And
after all, when a man is in love, to be
reasonable is often to be cowardly.
When he was dressed he went to
his hotel and breakfasted there.
Early as it was, there were many
members and senators present-eat-
ing, drinking coffee and disputing.
Hyde took no notice of any of these
disputes until man-evidently an
Englishman-called Franklin "a beg
gar-on-horseback-Ya Then he
looked steadily at the speaker, say
ing with the utmost GOODNESS and
firmness:
"You are mistaken, sir. The beg
gar-on-horseback is generally suppos-
ed to ride to the devil. Franklin
rode to the highest posts of political
honor and the esteem and affection OF
worthy men in all the civilized
world''
With these words he rose, pushed
aside his chair with little temper,
and, turning, met Jefferson face to
face: The great man smiled, and put
his hand affectionately on Hyde's
shoulder.

Now, l will give you piece of advice
when any one abuses a great man
in your presence, ask them what
kind of people they admire You will
certainly be consoled."
Hyde, casting his eyes a moment
on this tall, loose-limbed man, whose
cold blue eyes and red hair empha-
sized the stern anger of his whole
appearance, was we'll disposed to

Of Richmond Hill. Thus far, he had

COVERING Up Truth,

Covering UP Truth.
A certain man in Philadelphia, who
goes fishing two or three times year
and brings home more stories than
fish, was talking to a friend not long
after his last trip.
And what did your wife say" in

you had caught fifty-fve fish, none
less than pound weight?"
THAT wife of mine is a queer wom-
an was the reflective response. "You
know the statue of Truth we had there
IN the parlor without any clothes on?''
yes"
''Well, do you know, when told her
what I had caught, she didn't say a
word, but went right over to that
statue with tears in her eyes and
wrapped rug around it. Now, what
do you suppose she meant by that?"
and his friend assured him that it was
entirely beyond his explanation.

Then she went into the best parlor,
and opening one of the shutters let in

SHE HAS DONE WELL
BLUEGRASS MOTHER WITH A
RECORD PRESIDENT SHOULD
BE PROUD OF.
Been Married Since Early In 1899,
and Every Year Since, and on
scented Her Husband With Son.

Owenton, Ky, Feb. S.-If the admin
istration at Washington has not been
informed fully on the subject by those
who are earnestly striving to encour
against race suicide, we hope this re-
ference to the case of the Leroys of
Owen county, Kentucky, may receive
the consideration of he chief eXecu-
tive and his cabinet.
The case in question differs widely,
picturesquely, beautifully, interesting
ly, from all other cases of the kind
titus far reported. 1t is not a case of
twins, triplets, bankruptcies. or quintup-
but with singles that come with a reg
ularity which challenges at once the
amazement and admiration of all well.
married persons.
The present Mrs. Leroy was once a
belle of the bluegrass region, and it
was a question whether or not she
would ever retire to a purely domes.
tic life. She married a stock breeder.
This was early in 1899. Since then
she has become the mother of five
sons, the dates of whose births are as
follows:
Jan. Is, 1900. George NJ. Leroy.
Jan. Is. 1901. p. Ashton Leroy.
Jan. 10, 1902, Peter Leroy.
Jan. 10. 1908, Alexander Goldsbrough
Leroy.
Jan. IS, 1904, a son, not yet christen-
ed; probably will be called Theodore
Roosevelt.
The people of Owen county have al
most fallen into the habit of setting
their watches by the arrival of sons
in the Leroy family. From the begin
ming, the schedule has been observed
SO closely that if anything should now
happen to disturb it it would be regard
edl as little short of a natural revul-
sion.
Mrs. Leroy is still a young woman.
She is still a beautiful woman. Mr..
Leroy is enjoying the best OF health.
At present there seems to.bc no good
reason why any future 18th OF Janu-
airy for many years to come should iail
to be marked in the Leroy family not
only as the birthday of sons already
| here. hut also as the birthday of SOM

Heavy Shipments of Iron Ore.

Sunrise. Wyo., Feb. S.-The Colora-
do Fuel and Iron company has made
preparations for heavy shipments of
iron ore from its leased mines in this
district. The bridges or the railroad
between Hartville Junction and Sun
rise have been rebuilt and the rack
put in first class condition. Since the
shutdown at the mines six weeks ago
a small force of men has been engaged
in putting the property in shape for
an increased output. 1t is expected
that no less than two train loads Of
ore will be shipped to Pueblo daily.
One of these trains probably will be
sent over the Burlington and the other
over the Colorado and Southern.

make from the interesting letter:
Il have had some interesting ex-
periences since starting west. Had
one last night. Want to give you a
sample: | went down into the hotel
corridor and thought | would make
myself agreeable to all. Met an old
gentleman and tried to have a talk
with him, but | found that | had to do
it all myself, which made rather hard
work. 1t "a about thus: 1t rained
yesterday and l said: It's raining to,

This is the rainy season, is it not?'
Yes Has it rained much this YEAR,
No | then asked him if stock was
doing well on the ranges, and he an
swered, Yes, and then, as if to get in
more than one word, he added, when
the grass grows
Il then thought | would try him in
politics. and said: Who will tLey put
up for president at Chicago next sum-
mer?' He said. Roosevelt Then l
ventured one more question, and it
seemed to stir the old man to the bot
tom of his boot soles. | asked him:
Whom will the democrats put up?'
1T don't make a id bit of difference
who they put up; they can't elect any
body. anyway and then he sank back
into his usual quiet, and do the best |
could, all l could get from him was,
Yes and No | gave 1t up as a bad
job and turned my attention to other
people.

The Wyoming Commission of the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition has
undertaken the ask of seeing that this
state is properly and creditably repre-
scented at the Worlds Fair to be held
in St. Louis in 1904.
While a great deal of work has been
done n arrangements have been
made with most of the leading mines
its agriculturists and others, for ex.
hibits along their several lines, yet 1t
is more than probable that there are
numerous interesting relics. mineral
and agricultural products. which will
be overlooked unless those possessing
or having knowledge of the same, vol.
unfairly communicate with this com
mission.
Therefore, we invite anyone who
thinks he has anything worthy of ex-
hibition at st. Louis to communicate
at an early date with Commissioner
in-Chief C. B. Richardson, Cheyenne,
Wyo., explaining clearly what the ar.
ticle is and the conditions under which
it may be secured by this commission.
We trust that every citizen of Wyo-

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and hat is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con,
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine ase out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition Of
the mucous services.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case Of deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars,

A LEAP YEAR ROMANCE

Twas leap year when they met,
The maiden fair and he,
She sweetly murmured: pet.
l pray you marry me-"
Upon her breast he fell
And softly answered Yes"
She took him home to dwell
In new-found happiness.
She'd known him but a week
Before the fateful day,
Before she dared to speak
They welded right away.
All, must the truth be told:
He was a worthless wight:
His manner soon grew cold.
He stayed out late at night.
With sorrow on her breast
She's left alone to weep.
Oh. ladies, it is best
To look before you leap.
