Russian discipline.

General Dragomiron, the Russian
military expert, rose from the ranks
and always dressed according to the
army regulations for the common sol
der. One day while driving about St
Petersburg in his carriage he noticed
a soldier with hair longer than the reg
ulations called for He had the horses
stopped, alighted and, taking off his
hat, ordered the soldier to seize him
by the hair. The soldier hesitated. He
feared to l&y violent hands on his gem
eral: besides, the hair was clipped too
close to afford a hold for the hands.
The general surveyed the soldier stern
" for a few moments, then, twining
his fingers III tie latter's locks, he lit
orally wiped mp the street with him,
the victim not daring to resist. Final
", having impressed the lesson thor
oughly, he rezentered his carriage and
drove on, ordering the soldier to fol-
low. AT the first BARRIERS shop they
came to he again alighted and had ey-
cry vestige of hair shaved from the
soldiers head then turned him loose
as a horrible example to his fellows.

ROBERTS IS

MING MAN SAID TO BE PRESI-
DENT OF LANDER "coLLEGE."
So Noted by George W. Perry, Chief
Clerk of State Senate and Editor
of Sheridan Post, in Editorial Cor
respondence From Cheyenne to
That Publication.

In the Legislative correspondence
to the Sheridan Post, from the Posts
special representative at the state cap
ltal," who is Mr.. George w. Perry, the
chief clerk of the senate, in his letter
OF the u, is the following, which will
come a a surprise and a shock to the
many former friends of DR.. Frank II.
II. Roberts of the University of Den
yer, until a year or two ago a profess
sor in the University of Wyoming in
his city.
"A patriotic citizen of Lander died
several months ago, leaving his estate
valued at about $24, 900 to the trus-
tees Of the Wyoming agricultural col
lege at that place for the purpose of
aiding in the construction of necessary
buildings for that institution. During
the consideration of the bill for the
repeal of the Lander agricultural bill
members of the Fremont county dele
CATION in the legislature were heard to
say thai no matter what the legislature
did regarding the repeal of the law,
the state of Wyoming would not get a
dollar of this legacy. Subsequent de-
velopments would seem to indicate
that this declaration was spoken adj
visedly.
IN order to aid their fight for
the removal of the agricultural college
from Laramie, the trustees which have
been appointed under the provisions of
the law locating the college at Lander
went to work and purchased property
for the site of the agricultural college,
leased a building and employed a
corps of instructors. Prof. Frank H.

recently with the Denver university.
