gang of negro strike breakers from

notorious strike breaker. says he was
critically injured in the attack yester-
day. Rev. Father Reilly was struck

Unjust Discrimination.

He had been elected mayor of Jay
vile, having received an overwhelming
majority of the 1853 votes cast.
Yet as he sat there in his Office on
the third morning after his great tri-
umph at the polls there was a sad eN-
preston upon his c~ountenance. He
seemed to be thoroughly discouraged,
a fact which was noticed by his secre-
tary, who, considering it his duty to in
quire what the trouble was, asked:
Are you not feeling well this morn
ing. your honor?"
MY health is all right" replied the
mayor, but | can't help feeling that
things are all going wrong"
"Oh, there's no reason why you
true that there is nc immediate pros
pect of your being able to carry out
the promises you made before the cleo
ton. but cheer up. You have only
started upon your political career, and
there is no telling how things may
turn out"
mo, my boy, there's no use being
blind to the facts. AS you know, !, a
democrat, received an overwhelming
majority of the votes here where the
republicans have always carried every
thing in the past" d
Eyes, it was great triumph. You
have reason to be proud, and
But you don't understand. All that
happened three days ago, and no pres
idential boom has been started for me
yeti"
Then he began whiting at his pen
Gil, justly feeling that he had not been
fairly treated in the councils of his
party.

Long Lived Locomotives.

District Foreman Dan Sullivan is
quite proud of the record being made
on the middle district by the nine
engines of the 1900 class under his
care. They are running an average of
rs, 900 miles without being overhauled,
when IS 5000 miles is the limit. Engine
No, 1907, of which George DeForest is
the engineer. has just covered its 49,
900 miles without going into the shops,
and is capable of doing several more
hundreds without material harm to the
locomotive.
Engine No. 1926, Tom Mccain, en-.
gineer, was taken into the shops to-
day, after ten months continuous ser
vice. The 1900 class of engines are
also doing their full duty.
The engine which blew up on the
Evanston Oregon section last week,
No. 1863, belongs to the 1900 class. but
never did service here. 1t was taken
new to the Short Line a couple OF
years ago.

SUPERINTENDENT PARK WINS
PRIZE FOR PHYSICAL Ex-
CELLENCE OF HIS SEC.
TION OF SYSTEM.
Annual Report of Inspection Issued in
Pamphlet Form and Mailed to
Road and Station OfficiaIs-Excel-
lent Condition of Laramie-Rawlins
Section-RaiIroad News From the
Entire Western Field.

Roadmaster Deuel. of the Laramie,
Rawlins section of the middle district,
Wyoming division, has just received
copies of the printed report of the an
nual inspection of the Union Pacific
system for 1904, a most interesting
little pamphlet. The inspection in
cluded the lines east of Green River
and the Leavenworth, Kansas and
Western road.
1t is learned from the report thai the
Wyoming division ranked first in the
divisions, receiving a rating of SO in a
possible 100 points. The other divis-
ions were not far behind. but far
enough to make Superintendent Park
and Assistant Superintendent Whit
ney, as they were then recorded, i'm
mensely proud of the division. Since
the inspection was made Mr.. Park has
become the general superintendent of
the system and Mr.. Whitney the super
intendent of the Wyoming division.
On the Wyoming division the Lar
annie. Rawlins section of the middle
district, extending from Cheyenne to
Rawlins, ranked first, receiving q
score of GIG on a basis Of 100. This
was Mr.. Godso's district. He has since
been transferred to the Colorado di-
vision and been succeeded here by Mr..
Ed Deuel.. o. G. Adcock is the chief
clerk in the Office and was chief clerk
during the incumbency Of Mr.. Godso,
so that he in a measure reflects the
glory of both his chief and his former
chief. Mr.. Thayer's district, the Lar
annie Cheyenne section, was second on
the Wyoming division. Mr.. Deuel. has
twenty-one sections on his district.
The perfect depots, scoring 10 as the
highest score, are at Como, Cooper
Lake, Fort Steele, Greenyille, Harper,
Howell, Laramie, Ridge, Rock River
and Walcott. This, of course, refers
to Mr.. Deuel's subdivision of the mid
die district.
Perfect pumping stations are located
at Cooper Lake and Medicine Bow.
The best section houses and grounds
are at Allen, section No. %, and Como.
section No. %.
The best SECTIONS on the district are
No. II at Howell. No. 10 at Ridge and
No. % at Allen. o. Peterson is the
foreman at Howell, John Nelson at
Ridge and A. c. lack at Allen.
The best shops on the Wyoming di-
vision are at Cheyenne and Rawlins,
but the blacksmith shop, the machine
shop and the oil house at Laramie are
scored 10 (perfect), the carpenter shop
scoring 8 and the round house 9.
The Laramie coal chutes, the Lara
mic express and baggage Offices, the
Laramie ice house and the Laramie
depot score 10 each.
The pamphlet is filed with just such
information as this for the whole sys-
tenn and shows the excellent condition
of the road, there being no serious
mark against any section of the road
in a physical way. The fact that the
rougest district in the west is the best
from physical standpoint should not
be lost sight Of.

Mr.. Haas, interested in the Young

very interesting lecture at the audi

GENERAL IMPRESSION IN NEW
YORK THAT F~LORODORA
GIRL WILL BE AC-
Quilted TODAY.
Charge Of Recorder Golf to Jury
Looked Upon az Favorable to Girl
Young-Noted Case Went to Jury
Shortly After One O'clock, After
Closing Address by Prosecutor.

New York, May 3.-The fate of Nan
Patterson was placed in the hands of
the jury shortly after 1 o'clock this
afternoon. Recorder Golf, who pre-
viously had charge Of the jurors. told
them they must not be influenced by
outside matters, and must decide the
case regardless of what anyone might
think of the verdict. Miss Patterson's
past life must not be considered, and
must give the defendant the same con-
sideration as they would give any other
woman, regardless of her position.
You must not speculate" said Gof,
whether Young killed himself or not,
but you must con1ne yourselves to the
question whether or not the defendant
killed Young"
A general impression this afternoon
is that, Notwithstanding Rand's great
speech last evening, Nan Patterson
will be acquitted. The charge of Re-
corder Golf to the jury is looked upon
as favoring the prisoner. He was very
cold-blooded and robbed the affair of
all sentimentalism. He said this case
has nothing extraordinary; that
Young, a race track man, had this de-
PENDANT to live with him as his mis-.
tress. He was a mere gambler. There
is no artificial atmosphere for you to
be excited or distracted by; you must
decide calmly and with quiet minds.
Recorder Golf left the court room at
2 o'clock for luncheon. The jury de-
liverated over an hour and then went
to luncheon shortly after 2 o'clock.
The prisoner is very hopeful this
afternoon.

as violence and riots. The outlook is
not at all promising. By tomorrow the
biggest buildings in this city will be

be 40 sign of a settlement, both sides
being extremely bitter.

existing feeling, l cannot see any way
