TEA DRINKING IN ENGLAND.
Cups Were Small When Contents of Twenty
five Were Drunk Daily.

That Great Britain stands at the head OF all the
kingdoms of the earth in it's consumption of tea It's
record standing at about six pounds a head per
annum, should surprise none who has noted for
himself the tea drinking prowess OF the inhabitants
OF the United Kingdom. English, Scotch, Irish
and Welsh~they all indissOlubly welded
20 their cup of tea that II requires painful stretch
of the imagination TO picture time when they
tealess. Yet sts tiSticS show that II is only
within the last two hundred and fifty years or so
that Englishmen have been tea drinkers-that is
70 say. only matter OF somc eight generations
since the fragrant beverage was first known 20
them. Before that ale was the popular drink The
tea drinking habit, II IS interesting TO note brought
in its train long list of innovations-the teacup
for instance. seems 10 have been much smaller tnan
that of to-day Otherwise the feats of the famous
tea bibbers of literature-BishOp Burnet. with his
twenty-five cups in a morning, and the nlonu-
mental DR.. johnson. who said of himself that he
was "a hardened and shameless tea drinker.
whose kettle had hardly time 20 COOL would
have been impossible IL seems 20 have been a
common custom in the early part OF the eighteenth
century to drink tea three or four times q day ana
ten twelve cups a sitting, a practice which
would have been accompanied by an inconvenient
degree of personal tension IL the cups had been as
large as they are now. The infusion. too was
much weaker than IS palatable TO modern taste.
Teaspoons had TO be invented as well as teacups.
and were at first made with perforated bowls and
long, pointed stems, and at one time cups were
numbered, TO insure each member of tea drinking
party getting back his own cup each time the tea
renewed.

WANTS MORE PATROLMEN
Commissioner Bingham May Restore
Old Three Platoon System.

Two thousand additional patrolmen are wanted
by Police Commissioner Bingham. He makes this
one of the grounds for increasing the estimate for
his department for 1867 $2O69S over the 1906 esti
mate. Il is said that he wants more patrOlmen so
that he return to the old three platoon II
abolished some months ago. and the six sec
ton system substituted because of lack of men,
1t made the body Of policemen exceedingly bitter
against the present administration and II is said
that the Mayor would like to be in position to re-
store the old system by giving men to Com
missioner Bingham.
The estimate Of the Police Commissioner which
filed with the secretary of the Board of Esti-
mate yesterday. calls for sl5.6976S1 o. One of the
principal increases for which the Commissioner
wants more money is an increase of the salary Of
the deputy commissioners from $4,000 to s6Oo0
year. He believes the high order of work they do
should command greater compensation He also
thinks that Daniel Slattery. his secretary is doing
more work for the city than he is properly paid
for. and asks that his salary be increased from
$1,000 20 $500 year There is also request for
$500 increase in the salary James Mock executive
clerk of the department. Commissioner Bingham
says that the work done by the chaplains of the
department has been extremely valuable and asks
them. -
The 200 extra patrolmen asked for will cost
he wants half that number for Brooklyn and
Richmond More money is asked to- ncrease 1i1e the
force OF detectives from Pol to $50 at a cost Of
money for the appointment of three additional in
spectOrs two police surgeons. twentyone sergeants
and thiTty-eight ToundSmen.
AS the Commissioner is anxious to send a number
of the policemen doing clerical duty at Headquar-
ters out regular police duty he asks money
for twenty clerks. at $1,000 each; tabulator, at
the same salary; three stenographers, at 5000 and
a typewriter copyst, at S720.
Another innovation for which Commissioner
Bingham wants some of the taxpa -ers' money is
the appointment of law clerks to assist police
men I'm drawing up complaints and passing on
various legal points. He does say why the
Corporation Counsel or the District Attorney could
not furnish men for that purpose from their large
Commissioner Bingham also thinks it is time 10
make up the deficiency in the police tension fund
which amounts TO Nl5359 l6

Mr.. Marvin, who has been the guest
of Mr.. and ]. E. Weightman here
since last Wednesday, left for his
home at Kansas City this afternoon.
Mr.. Marvin is the father of Mrs. Will
lam Weightman of Rawlins, having
visited her before coming to Laramie.
Misses Helen Ryan, Mamie and 10
sephine Sullivan and Mayme Doyle
left this afternoon for the south, and
will visit in California, Texas and Mex

will act as cashier at the Gem City Gro
Gerry company during the absence OF
Miss Ryan.
A. T. Collins, who owns the Old
Mans Delight and other placer claims
at the head of Lincoln gulch. in the
Douglas creek mining section, left to-
day for the Sequel mine, owned by the
Ulcohomo Mining company, in the
Horse creek mining district. with a
load of supplies.
Frank l.. Palmer of st. Paul, repre-
senting The Jolly Elk of that city, a
publication in the interest of the Be
nevolent and Protective Order of Elks,
is a city visitor. He is also a promi-
nent Knight of Pythias and was calling
upon local members of the two organ
izations during the day.
Rev. r. Addison Lansdel, pastor of
the Baptist church, went to Cheyenne
yesterday afternoon and last evening
occupied the pulpit of the Baptist
church in that city. DIR. H. w. Quaint
ance of the commercial department of
the university spoke at the Baptist
church here in the evening.

Hammond Packing company of Chey-
enne, was here Sunday, leaving for
home on the noon train. While here
he bought three cars of cattle from J.
e. Weightman, which were shipped to
Cheyenne yesterday afternoon. Some
of these will be slaughtered and more
sent to the pasture for more fattening.

Statements Not All True.

Now, We all were anxious for the
president to push these investiga
tons, thinking that there might be
some unfairness practiced, but as
thousands of the American people who
have visited the packing plants know,
there have been many lies sworn to
by these witnesses. 1t is becoming
disgusting, and a great detriment to
America in a general way, to say
nothing about the detriment to he
packing industry. Now, you honest
American or farmers, if you please,
who have visited these plants, open
your mouths to the public and tell
what you saw.
Diseased Cattle Lost to Shipper.
Now, you stock men who ship cattle
to these stock yards, know how the
lump-jawed or diseased cattle are
handled. You all know there is a gov
eminent inspector who inspects the
cattle, and if any diseased cattle are
found they are tagged and sent to the
diseased killing pens, killed and then
their meat is inspected. If the ANNA,
passes inspection after it is killed,
then the shipper gets the full value
of his animal; if it does not pass.
then he gets nothing. Most all ship
pers have had animals tagged back on
them.
More Harmful Than Truetc
, 1906-06-11
Brains, Drawn and Bullion.

But since then came the brainy man
Rockefeller and developed in that
same country the oil fields. The last
time l visited that same country they
had not only gas lights, but beautiful
gas fires, and much cheaper thar
wood was when it stood within five
rods of their doors, if they figured
their labor anything. Now it takes, as
we all know, capital, brains and labor
combined to develop and push to the
front any industry or country. One
man may have the brains, but no
money or muscle; another may have
the money and no brains or muscle;
another may have the muscle and no
brains nor money. But when they are
all honestly combined there are but
few things impossible.
Now 1 will close by saying the
greatest trouble is the shortage of
honest men. G. B. BRANNON.

More Harmful Than Trusts.

"a . boAos
Now, in my judgment, there are a
certain class of newspapers and sore
headed, dishonest, degraded politicians
that are doing our country more harm
than all the trusts put together in
America. They have caused an agita-
ton between labor and capital that is
doing u country a great injury. Now,
laboring men, think back thirty years
ago, or before the great combination
of the steel trust, oil, iron or meat
trusts, as they are called. Did you
get as good wages then as now? Did
you have as many good things to eat,
wear OF drink as now? Did you have
as comfortable n as cheap a way
to travel oyer the country as now?
Did you have the same educational
advantages as your children have
now? Not much. What education l
got was in the mountains of West
Virginia, sitting on a puncheon seat
and a pine knot sticking in the Chin
ney for a light.

GUS experience was that had by Mr..

to remain in the water for nearly two
hours, and only succeeded when some
passing horsemen, with the aid of
ropes at the saddle bow, came to their
assistance. While no n was hurt,
the ladies were badly frightened and
John was thoroughly chilled by his ex-
posure in the cold water.

PROGRESSIVE COMPANY

In the suit in the district court Sat
urday, in which the Progressive Gold
Mining and Milling company, owning
the Old Mans Delight and other
placer claims, was suing f. ID. Jenkins
and E. e. Wisner of Fort Collins for
possession of the property, the judg-
ment of the court was in favor of the
company, represented by e. T. Col
Inns, who had worked the claims for
years and who was in possession, he
claims, when the defendants sought to
jump his title. The costs were as
sessed against the defendants and
they were enjoined from in any way

The claims have produced considerable
