Lying in a hammock

That is how he finds her
AS he walks that way.
Thinks she is an angel
Lettering here below,
And she smiles demurely:
Keeps him thinking so.
A mendacious Cupid
Hovers DER the spot.
Half of what she says in June
In August is forgot
Says the same to others,
When he's gone away,
Lying in o hammock

RIGHT CHARACTER.
Character is built or grows from
within outward. We may distinguish
conduct from motive, as we distin-
guish the human from the divine,
but we cannot separate them. A
right life is all of one texture; it is
the same at the surface as at the
center. Goodness is the fruit of the
spirit; so perhaps is an apple or a
corn of wheat. But man lives and
acts in conscious freedom. The
moral alternative choice between
good and evils ever before him,
ike parting of the ways. Right
character is simply the result of
habftual choice of the perceived best.

NEW SCHEME FOR WAR
ON PREDATORY ANIMALS

Hugh Mcdonald Of Islay. Wyo., in a
letter to the Cheyenne Tribune of yes
terday afternoon, recommends that in
stead of an appropriation for a bounty
fund, the matter be placed in the hands
of two experienced hunters and trap
pers in each county, on a salary OF
$3.50 per month each, and all the
skins they captured, a man to be en-
ployed at a salary of $4,000 a year to
have charge of all the trappers and
hunters. All the skins taken shall be
reported to and recorded by the re-
spective county clerks and then deliv-
cred back to the trapper, to be dispos-
ed of as he saw fit. The n man
should have the authority to employ
and discharge the two hunters in each
county as he saw fit. Mr.. Mcdonald
thinks this would prevent the POSSIBLE
ity of fraud in bringing pelts from
other states and presenting those TAX
en- before the bounty available.

P%inedale, Wyo., Jan. 24.-The low
water at the outlet of Fremont lake,
where it passes into Pine creek, is now
alive with one of the queerest species
of fish found in the United States.
These strange fish are known as noun
tain herring; have heads similar to
the deep sea herring and make their
appearance only during January, when
they seek the shallow waters neal the
mouth of the lake where the ice never
forms, for spawning.
The fish live only in great depths,
making their h%abitation in Fremont
lake, which has fathomless depths,
where bottom has lever been found by
sounding lines. The traits of this
queer fish eel first discovered by the
Indians, who would brave the severest
storms to be at the outlet of the lake
by January 10, when the fish make
their appearance in millions. They
would be caught by hundreds and pack
ed back in ice. providing a stock for
the remainder of the winter. They
are from six to ten inches in length
and very nutritious.

YELLOW FEVER ON ISTHMuS.
Several Cases Develop Among Newly
Arrived Americans.

Washington. Jan. 2i-UnOffcial ad
vices received here from representa-.
tives of the government in the Panama
canal zone, dated at the end of the
fist week in January, are to the effect
that while the current reports of the
prevalence of yellow fever on the 18TH
mus are exaggerated, the pest does ex-
list there, and some apprehension is ex-
pressed that if it continues to spread
there will be a wholesale exodus of
the canal builders.
The cases so far developed are said
to have probably been preventable had
proper precautions been adopted. But
the large influx of people of the north
~unacqdainted with tropical climatic
dangers and the best "a to avoid
them undoubtedly mas afforded great
opportunity for the spread of yellow
fever. The American p~articu-

enlarged TO include the east half of
Wyoming, or above 100, 900 square
miles in all. When l assumed charge
the churches numbered twelve, and
there are now forty-seven. There were
then 375 communicates of the faith
and this number has increased to
where services we're held as often as
possible we now have ninety. The
number of clergymen has advanced
from six to twenty-five and the value
of church property from 100000, with
$4,000 Indebtedness, to 100000. Be-
sides this we have established a pros
porous boys school with seventy-two
students at present.
The country is sparsely settled.
Along the railroads the villages and
hamlets are an average of twenty-five
miles apart. In many of them it is
impossible to hold ,rvices more than
once a month. But ranch people come
as far as fifteen miles to attend the
services and we see constant evidences
OF improvement in the character of
the people. Meetings are held at iso-
lated points, quite regardless of sect,
sometimes, and all Christians are in
vited in and seem glad to participate.
The good people in some of the most
barren districts have built humble sod
churches which serve the purpose very
well. In another Wyoming town
where We have just completed a neat
81, 900 chapel, the work was set under
way and really accomplished by a
young Indian girl. So in spite of all
the difficulties and obstacles we are
constantly encouraged by the inspir-
ing responses from the people. I'd
vancement and expansion is hard and
very slow, but progress nevertheless
is steady, and especially has this been
the rule during the last four or five
years, during which time uniformly
fair crops have rewarded the agricul-
turist.'
