M. t. Butler of this city. who is IN

bedrock for the permanent bridge be-

Pierre, S. D., writes to his wife here

upon which to build the piers for the
Chicago and Northwestern railway. Mr..
Butler sends copies of papers contain

first trip made by a train from Pierre
to Marion's Island, the train consisting
of an engine and tender, two freight
cars, a caboose and the private car of
Superintendent o. Fl. McCarty of the

was Mrs. w. II. Maxwell, wife of the
contractor for the Laramie public

The soldier Lee, tried at Cheyenne
for the murder Of another soldier nam
ed King, resulted in the acquittal of
Lee, as everybody who had the slight
est knowledge of the case anticipated.
II was purely a case of ~self-defense,
King being a bully who had attempted
TO overawe and thrash without warrant
many of the privates at the post. AL
though expensive to Laramie county,
this case will be a good lesson for Mr..
Ross, the prosecuting attorney. His
reputation does not depend upon the
number of people he brings to trial as
much as it does upon the criminals he
convicts. He is just at present waging
another war which is sure to bring him
nothing but grief. We refer to the
case against several Cheyenne gam.
blers, The city of Cheyenne had been
in league with them for a number oil
years. fines being collected in lieu OF
a license. Without notice Mr.. Ross Sc
cured evidence against these people
and filed complaints. 1t is not the the,
DRY of the law that men should be per,
secuted. Prosecution for offenses is
right and proper, but when men are
permitted for years to do a thing. 1t
is but common justice that they should
have notice that it is the purpose of the
officials TO discontinue the former prac-
tice. Cheyenne jurymen are sane men
and therefore the cases will amount to
nothing.

In Praise of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedv,

There is no other medicine manufac.
tured that has received so much praise
and so many expressions of gratitude
as Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. 1t
is effective, and prompt relief follows
its use. Grateful parents everywhere
do not hesitate to testify to its merits
for the benefit of others, 1t is a certain
cure for Group and will prevent the at
tack if given at the first appearance of
the disease. 1t is especially adapted
to children as it is pleasant to take and
contains nothing injurious. Mr.. E. A.
Humphreys, a well known resident and
clerk in the store of Mr.. e. Lock, of

POLITICAL OPPORTUNITY OF RICH
YOUNG MEN.

The New York Evening Post in COM
menting on the death OF Woodbury.
Kane, speaks of the indifference which
this man of wealth felt for 'the things
that occupy most men," One of the
correspondents of the paper observes
that had Kane been an Englishman in
stead of an American, he would have
gone into the army or become a diplo-
mat, for both of which careers he had
talents that would have commanded re-
spect. Being an American there was
nothing to interest him but pleasure.
There can be no doubt that there are
many wealthy young Americans who
find no inspiration IT. American condi-
lions. They have wealth enough, and
they are sufficiently wise to know that
they have enough. They are destitute
of that instinct of acquisitiveness
which makes a man like Mr.. Rockefel.

labor, says the Indianapolis News, is
readily made in the following manner:
Make shaft Of a strip of wood two
inches thick and long enough so that it
will extend three or four inches above
the top Of the kettle. At the bottom of
this shaft make paddles by crossing
two thin boards two or three inches
wide.
= Fasten a crank to the top of the
shaft, and to this crank fasten a pole,
or not, as preferred. Then prepare a
strip of board six or eight inches wide,
bore hole throgh the middle, through
which to pass the shaft, match both
ends to fit over the handle Of the kettle
and at one end tlx slide and set
screw to hold it in place. If the cook
ing Of the food for stock is done away
from the house, as it ought to be, one
should build REPLACE of bricks and
cement in which to set the kettle The

that it is comparatively easy to ar.

BREEDING DRAFT FILLIES.
A Scotch Practice Which Might Be
Initiated Successfully by Amer
ican Stockmen.

French, English and Scotch farmers
and horse breeders generally breed
their draft fillies at two years old, and
by generous treatment they develop
good, large size at three, when they
have colt, and they have learned to
work and earn their keep. Farmers
Advocate says: A noticeable feature
in connection with the recent importa-
ton of so Clydesdale fllies was that
the two-year-olds had all been stinted
before leaving Scotland. Inquiry dis
closed the fact that this is common
rarctioe in that country of good draft
horses. On this side it is a very rare
thing to breed filly before she is
three years old, although. with our
early maturing stock and comfortable
stables, the main reason why it is not
Gone is simply force of habit, or a
vague impression that immature
Elares will not produce strong faols.
Scotchmen raise the best of horses. and
breed their fillies at two years old.
Why should we not breed a year ear
lier, and make use of one of the best
years In the brood mares life? Of
course, it is redundant to say the filly
should be we'll grown and in thriving
condition, and should be kept so. Too
often the two-year-old fillies are not
given the advantage they deserve, be-
cause they are supposed to be big and
able to forage for themselves, and are
only growing anyhow, and. conse-
quently their third year is not remark
able for development. If early breed
Ing is followed by greater care and
more liberal treatment, perhaps the ILL
elect supposed to result from breeding
at an earlier age might be entirely
avoided. 1t is not too late to try
breeding the two-year-olds this sea-
son, and some valuable experience
rlay be gained from 1t.
