It's Not War.
New York Post.

New OTR FOSt.
The raid Of the Fladivostok squad
ron has brought out, in certain I'M
practicable idealism, the seamy side
of Japanese valor. Such incidents as
the refusal of troops on transports
to surrender to warships, the whole
sale preparation of such troops to
commit suicide, and the demand that
an unsuccessful admiral should take
his own life, reminds US startlingly
of the gulf that lies between ourselves
and these Orentials. AS for the
troops who lay helpless under the
guns OF the Russian cruisers, their
preference for death gratihed only a
personal punctilio. By surrendering
at discretion they could have put the
Russian feet to considerable embar-
not have taken them prisoners; in
deed. would have been obliged to fur
nish some means of escape from the
sinking transports. Under such cir
cumstances. the Japanese would have
been under no parole, the Russians
would have been subject to a peril
Gus delay, and a thousand troops
would have been spared to fight the
battle of the empire. 1t would be
said, Of course, that the complete in
difference to death which constitutes
in part the superiority OF the Japan
ese army, depends upon this fanatical
point Of honor, it seems likely, how
ever. that for purely military reasons
the Japanese commanders will be
compelled to combat the national
code of suicide.

Telephone LINE TO DILLON
That Thriving Mining City to be Con-

Dillon will SOC have telephone
communication with the outside.
The Rocky Mountain Bell Tele-
phone Company has agreed To
build a line connecting Dillon
with their line at Copperton if
$500 worth of coupons We're sub
scribed for; these coupons to be
redeemable in tolls on the compa-
ny's lines. A Subscription list
was circulated and the names anil
amounts desired has been secuted
Superintendent A. j. Vance
stated to Mr.. Wood at Laramie
last week that work would com
men ;e Immediately upon the COM
pany being guaranteed that the
coupons would be taken, so there
is no reason why the people of
Dillon should not be on speaking
terms with the rest of the world
in a few days.
Dillon had a telephone line at
work for a while last fall but the
wires we're continually getting
tangled and out of working order
SO it was finally abandoned.
The matter of telephoning has
been a great inconvenience dur
ing the winter and Dillon people
have been compelled to go to
Copperton or Rambler in all kinds
of weather to get in communica-
ton with other points. 1t was
not practicable to erect "A line

A MAINE FISH STORY
= Story That Should be 4 Warming to
ALI Fisherman.

A correspondent of Maine
Woods writes: "Seeing some
fish and bear stories, | must con
TESS some of them do smell a lit
tie tishy, and for a change | will
give you one founded on facts.
You see, it was this way. We
We're fishing on one of the kes-
wick lakes in the spring of '9}
and Il catch had been enormous
About 3 o'clock in the afternoon
we heard a peculiar noise on the
bank of the lake like tearing of
foots. So we went to investigate.
and on nearing the shore were
surprised to find a large black
bear digging up the ground to
beat nine of a kind. We lay low
to watch; and what do you think
he was doing? Why, he was dig
ging worms, and after putting
nice fat angleworms on each of
his forepaws, he ventured out in
the lake on an old sunkeu log, put
down his ~forefeet in the water and
actually scooped out huge trout
so thick aud fast that he almost
darkened the sun. After awhile,
thinking there was enough fish
for us. we put an unc ball in
his head. Talk about fish! Great
heavens! There lay trout two
feet deep, on which two young
cubs were gorging themselves.
Well, we skinned that bear, and,
wishing To secure the cubs alive,
| Just threw the bear skin over
me and got down on all tours. and
those cubs followed me right into
camp, thinking it was mother
bear, The cubs | afterward sold
for S25 each, and the hide of the
mother bear, which was a very
large one, brought me $40, not too
bad a days work. Oh, yes, about
those fish on the bank. Well, we
went back the next day and bar
relied up twenty-four BARRELS of
the best of those trout. The rest
were left to rot in the sun. We
put those fish in cold storage, and
we have some of them yet"

Bound Over to District Court.

Joseph McRoberts, the man
who shot Cortez Wilson, three
miles north of the ranch of c. NJ.
Scrfbner about two months ago,
was given a preliminary hearing
in Rawlins last Monday and
bound I've to the District Court
in the sum of $1,000. Wilson,
the wounded man, who made such
a remarkable recovery from what
was thought mt first to be an al
most certainly fatal wound, WAS
present at the hearing.
The motive for the shooting
in this case has always been a
mystery. McRoberts and Wilson
were friends and comrades and
McRoberts has never been able to
give a satisfactory reason for his
sudden attempt at homicide. Nc
Roberts trial will come off at the
fall term of court.

MAS0NS HONOR
DEPARTING MEMBERS
Eli Lee and Edgar F. Circuit Given a Cor
dial. send-os by Their Brethren.

The members of Saratoga
Lodge, No. H., \. +. & 4. NJ,
met in their hall Tuesday evening
in regular session. After the
business of the lodge had been
disposed of the members sat
down to a nice little supper, pre-
pared in honor of the departure
from their midst of Brothers Eli
Lee and Edgar f. Grout. The
duty of saying a few farewell
words to the departing Brothers
fell upon Brother Crawford, who,
in a brief talk, on behalf of the
Lodge, babe them God-speed and
expressed the regret that the
Lodge felt at the loss of two of its
most esteemed members, and that
while their faces would be sadly
missed from the hall and the
community, hoped that they
would find new friends and that
their lines would be cast in pleas
ant places until called hence by
the Grand Master who rules and
guides all things.
Brother Grout responded in a
feeling manner and showed how
deeply his heart was touched by
the kindness and depth of the
ceremony of leave taking. Bro
ther Eli Lee, that old war-horse,
then rose to his feet and for ten
or fifteen minutes spoke out of
the depths of his heart to the
brethren gathered around the
board. Always an earnest and
interesting talker, his words made
"A deep impression and there were
signs of moisture around many
eyes in the assembly. The coca
sion was one of deep feeling OF
the part of every one present.

Will Buy Machinery.

Major Alters. ID. f. Golf and
|. l.. Golf came down from En-
campment yesterday, on their way
to Denver, where they go to buy
machinery for the What Cheer
mine, a property in which they
are interested. The What
Cheer lies in Purgatory Gulch
Just above the Golden Eagle"
the mine which started the
mining excitement in the En-
campment country in the first
place. The developments in the
"What Cheer have been of such
a character that its owners feel
warranted in putting in a plant of
machinery for the development OF
the mine.
Judge Peryam took the party to
Walcott.

Some Admirable School Work.

There is a display IF drawing in
the front windows of the Platte
Valley Drug CO., that is well
worth "A careful study. There are
perhaps 100 specimens of the
art, all of them executed by the
children of the public school.
They are all worthy of mention
and some of them display decided
artistic talent, so much so in fact
that it should be cultivated.
Under the able management of
Prof. Stearns and his corps of
assistants, considerable progress
has been made in every line. The
drawing. which has been under
the supervision Of Miss Brown, is
a sample of the efforts put forth
to advance the scholars, and it is
mentioned as an example of the
work that is being done.

The almost constant rain of the
past week was a valuable one in
every way and insures a fairly
good range, at which all are re-

INDUSTRIAL CONVENTION.
Many to Come From Adjoining Counties
in Own conveyapces Camping Grounds
Provided The Display Of Products
and Minerals to be Large.

1t is expected that a large ma
jority of those attending the con
vention from Fremont county,
southern Big Horn, southern
johnson, and a large part of those
from Natrona and Converse coun-
ties will come in their own CON
veyances, bringing their camping
outfits with them. The associa-
ton will provide suitable camping
grounds for all such parties.
From present indications there
will be hundreds of these outfits
in attendance. Every man who
goes to the convention should take
his wife and children with him if
possible as the exposition will be
an object lesson in the resources
of the state, consequently it will
contribute important knowledge
that should be given to every boy
and girl of Wyoming.
The Industrial Association will
send out in a short time, a folder
giving full directions in regard to
the gathering of agricultural ma
terial for exhibit at Casper. The
.
folder will be written by an expert
who is thoroughly competent for
the task. Full directions will be
given as to the time to gather
heads of wheat, barley, rye, oats.
and other grains, so there will he
no Smelling while being transport
ed to the place of exhibition. Full
directions will also be given in re-
gard to cleaning grain that is to
be put under glass. Edward
Young the pioneer fruitgrower of
Wyoming has been invited to fur
nish directions in regard to pick
ing and packing fruits to be sent
to Casper for exhibit. All these
items will be in the agricultural
and fruit folder. There will also
be a folder issued giving full and
complete directions in regard to
the selection of gold, iron, and
other ores which are intended to
form a part of the industrial ex-
hibit. This folder will give a
complete list of articles needed at
the great exposition.
The city of Casper has excep-
tional facilities for conducting the
Fourth Annual Industrial Con-
vention. 1t has plenty of large
buildings to display minerals and
agricultural products and there
will be plenty of room for the
stock exhibit. There is a good
hall in which to hold the conven-
ton. Hotel accommodations will
be provided for all to attend the
convention.
