land, proclaiming in stentorian tones
that they had succeeded in solving
nearly all the problems of the universe.
They declared that the characters and
attainments of every individual could
be told quickly through a simple feel
ing of the bumps on the head, and not
infrequently aspiring, like Sejanus. to
knock a star out of heaven, they would
maintain they possessed the power of
foreteliing an individuals destiny and
controlling his fate. A common prac-
tice among these quacks was to tell
the fond mother Of an unusually stupid
boy that the boy was a genius destined
to become the president of the United
States; after which interesting piece
of information 1t would have been hard
to say which manifested the greater
satisfaction, the grating b~umpologist
as he pocketed his dollar, or the mother
who had gladly given the dollar for
such pleasure-compelling information.
But the science of bumpology long
since lost the attraction 1t possessed
in days of yore, Occasionally N sees
a rather seedy-looking individual, with
a long beard, who still carries on the
business, but the failure of every one
of those hundreds of thousands OF boys
to attain the high goal prophesied of
him, for the sum of n dollar, dealt
bumpology a blow from which it never
recovered. and probably never will.
Iother frauds, like crystal gazing, palm
istry, %astrology and spirit" medium
ship now hold the field. But 1t is
doubtful if the death of all these
frauds together would produce so many
genuine mourners as have stood by the
open grave OF bumpology, wondering
whether there be any truths destined to
live through the ages.-Denver Repub.

THE SCIENCE OF BuMPoLoGY.

A generation or two ago one of the
most popular fads consisted in havine
ones head xamined by a man who call.
ed himself a phrenologist. The phre-
nologist would put his hands upon a
head and carefully search for the
bumps, which told, according to his
theory, what were the intellectual, NOR
al and religious characteristics of the
man or woman.
AT an early date the study of hands
by the chronological method had pos
sessed some scientific features. Gall.
Combe and Spurheim believed they had
discovered that different parts of the
brain performed different functions,
while the shape of the head revealed
the amount and quality Of brain de.
velopment. By psychologists and phys
iologists generally the theories of Gall
Combe and Spurzheim are now regard
ed as very crude. Even the school of
Lombroso and Nordau does not base
its conclusions on the old time phre-
nology which is now generally held to
be a pseudo science.
But %phrenology was not only a false
theory when seen at its best, bu. in
snort order it became little more than
a grating game, like present-day palm.

Between thirty and forty people have
confessed Christ during the past week,
and the conviction is deepening that a
great revival is on in Laramie.
There will be a short preaching SER

sHosHoNE IRRIGATION SYSTEM.

1t is the easiest thing in the world to
be mistaken. The man who jumps to
conclusions is a dangerous man with
a pen. Without waiting to investigate,
he insinuates and slurs right and left.
Recently State Engineer Johnston
made a trip to the national capital and
no sooner had he left Cheyenne than
an editor at Shoshoni charged him with
being in a conspiracy to prevent the OPP
ening of the reservation on schedule
time.
This was just a mere guess, but 1t
served the purpose of the editor in
question to make a few enemies for the
state engineer.
Now 1t turns out that the real mis-
sion of the state engineer was direct.
ly in the interests of the reservation
opening n all the people in that To-
caltty. He went to Washington for the
purpose of getting the consent of the
interior department to have prelimi-
nary irrigation surveys made upon the
reservation-that is, before the open
ing. These surveys will be made by
the state n will be exceedingly ad-
~vantageous to the intending settlers.
1t will enable them to determine ap-
proximately what the water will cost
them upon a given tract of land, and
as the land is valueless without water,
as a matter of fact the surveys will
fix the value of the land.
State Engineer Johnston's plan has
the endorsement of the government,
he Wyoming congressional delegation
and the general land office, and will
be pushed through with as little delay
as possible.

THE MAN WHO LAUGHS.
He seems to take

You with a shake,
And force the hidden laughter out;
We envy him
His mirthTul vim,
The cheer he always has about.
Within the room
He lifts the gloom,
And keeps the guests in gay commo
ton.
He has a pun
For every one,
And leaves it with a jokes explosion.
No grief can drown
His humor down
He's light of heart as was Mary Tapley
With less than half
Our cause to laugh
He treads life's pathways twice as hap

How sweet and deep
Must be his sleep,
How bright the scene in dreams that
rise.
And when he wakes
We know there breaks
A morn of mirth in his glad eyes.

A HE'LL OF HIS OWN.

1873, Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men, sends the Locomotive Firemen's
Magazine the following concerning the
man who does not attend his lodge,
which is good not only for the B. of L.
F. but for all secret organizations:
There appeared at the portal of heaven
one day
A man who was ragged and wretched
and gray;
One who appeared in a desperate
plight,
A wornout fireman, a poor shiftless
wight.
But he knocked at the door, and to St.
Peter said,
And knelt as he spoke and bowed down
his head:
oh! Peter, kind Saint, let me enter l
pray
And he listened to hear what the good
Saint would say.
Know We not, poor mortal, ere enter
ing here
OF every wrongdoing your soul must
be clear?
You've been very wicked on earth, l
am sure,
So a penance I'll give you the time to
endure"
"oh! Peter, kind Saint, a poor fireman
was II"
And his voice became husky, a tear
dimmed his eye.
81 once was a member of one eighty
three,
So just let me enter and happy I'll be-"
That's a point in your favor said
Saint Peter, at last,
And twill cover a few of your sins of
the past;
But first you will give me the b. of L..
F. greeting
And tell me when last you attended a
meeting"
II have not been to lodge now for over
a year,
And as for the late work, I very much
fear
I've forgotten it quite, though I've got
my receipt.
Which l hope will insure me at least
a back seat"
You haven't attended for over a
year?"
Said Peter, his face clouded Ger with
a sheer,
" IT'S a rotten excuse which you know
very well,
And I'll send you straight down to your
comrades in hell"
So a telephone message to Satan he sent
And down went the fireman to Hades,
swiftly pent;
But Satan himself met him right at the
door,
And roasted him worse than the Saint
did before.
We've hundreds of firemen here
toasting their shins,
For committing on earth all ann of
sins,
But the n that l always endeavor to
dodge
Is the sinner who never is found in his
lodge.
You can't enter here, but one thing I'll
do,
III give you a barrel of birthstone or
two,
GO off by yourself in some nook all
alone,
You must go and start a small hell of
your own"

law passed by the last General
Assembly will be at least S45, 900

have expended and provided a

Commissioner Green Of Somerset
estimates that the bottoms now
made use of which will come under

amount to $4,000 acres. 1t is
supposed that all of these beds will
be rented. The cost is 81 per acre,
so that the return without bringing
under cultivation any of the barren
beds would be $45, 900, DR.. Cas-

mission, estimates that there are

Anne Arundel, on the Severn llver.
The Commission will have this
year, besides the $4,000 appro-
priation by the Legislature, the
$4,000 appropriation by the
Federal Government to assist in

Exposition Boulevard Magnificent
Driveway To Be Constructed
From Norfolk To Jamestown
EXPOSITION Grounds,
Exposition Grounds.

One of the objects of international ex-
positions abroad has been to leave a
permanent memorial of the celebration.
This is especially true of the French
Worlds Fair. The Trocadero Palace,
the Hall of Industry and the Alexander
Bridge will stand for centuries as
memorials of the several expositious
which created them.
A far less spectacular, and yet perhaps
more valuable, reminder will be left
after the jamestown Exposition has pass
ed into history The South has not been
noted for good roadways; on the contrary,
it has gained an unenviable fame by ils
maintenance of bad roads. In connection
with the Ter-Centeuuial the city and
county of Norfolk will combine forces
and will construct a model boulevard
linking Norfolk with the Exposition.
To the limits of the city the avenue
will be asphalted. The six mile stretch
from the city limits to the Exposition
grounds will be an ample of the most
approved methods of macadam road
building.
The boulevard will be one hundred and
twenty-five feet wide. There will be
room for double track electric car line
in the center, and broad spaces on either
side. The rights of way have been
secured for the entire stretch, aud the
route selected is the one preferred by
the Engineer of the Good Roads Bureau
of the Department of Agriculture, at
Washington.
Automobiles may travel from Norfolk
to the Exposition Grounds in twenty
minutes with ease, and observe the
restrictions regarding speed. The electric
cars will take no longer, and on such a
perfect roadway vehicles drawn by horses
will make excellent time.
One of the reasons for the Govern
ment's interest in this matter relates to
the transportation Of troops. Such bodies
of soldiers as will land at Norfolk will
have either to march or ride to the Ex-
position encampment. A road OF such
character as the Exposition Boulevard
will ena"le them to march easily, and
thus picturesque feature will be added
to the celebration, for troops will come at
frequent intervals during the entire Ex-
position period. The President of the
United States was authorized by Act of
Congress to invite every state to send its
militia to the Exposition. He has already
issued proclamation to this effect, and
it is reasonably certain that most of the
states will accept The regiments of
citizen soldiery will not come all at one
time but so arranged that one or more
States will always be represented in the
United States eucampmeut.
