ism is the worst period the world has
yet known Evidently there must have
been a lapse of memory between the
first and the second articles.
The world is getting better. 1t is
not lapsing from bad to worst, Indi-
vidualism will triumph over all com
muuistic theories and vagaries. In the
future civilization, built upon justice
and equal opportunity, there will be no
room for the red nag of anarchy, which
now waves when tolerated in every so

take Of Valet.
Gov. Magoon OF Panama and Sena-
tor Aldrich of Rhode Island occupy ad-
Joining apartments at the Arlington
hotel. They employ the same valet.
One night Gov. Magoon took some
ladies to the theater. AS n of the
ladies' stepped from the carriage she
dropped her fan. Gov. Magoon stopped
to pick 1t up. There was a horrible
tearing sound. The Governor knew
what had happened. He excused him
self to the ladies. saying it was i'm
~perative that he should return to his
hotel for a few moments. He gave the
ladies the tickets, and promised to re-
turn in a short time.
Then he hurried to the hotel. He
went to his room, and found Senator
Aldrich sitting there, mutely gazing at
a pair of trousers that Tapped around
him.

Indeed, l have come back to

trousers. They are mine. AS for these

Senator Aldrich shucked off Ma

put on, his own, which Magoon had
been wearing, there was a succession
of loud cries. He stayed n the hoteI

League for Upright Writing.

In Paris a League for Upright
Writing has been formed, and it
takes a phrase from Georges Sand as
its motto: Upright writing on hori-
zontal paper with the body held
straight" The league crusades against
the English style of writing slanting
and angular, which, 1t says, is no long
er really taught in England or Amer
lea. Slanting writing is said to cause
short sight, "scholiosis,' and many
other optical troubles.

Rarbarous Chinese Execution.

A horrible execution recently oc.
Cured at Kuelin, China. Details of
the affair say that the victims gold
bracelets were taken off, and he was
stretched on a framework for execu-
ton by lingchih-that Is, the slow
carving process. No cry or sound es.
capped from the sufferer from first to
last. Only when his bowels were cut
open did his head fall. hut he quickly
raised it again. Finally his head was
cut off. So terrible was the sight that
many among the countless onlookers
tainted, a truly remarkable thing foi
Chinese to do. Ultimately his hear,
and other members we've brought to
the viceroy, who had the heart open
cd, and, in the cover of a teapot, drank
some of his blood. Wang Taotai and
another high official drank, but the
rest of the officials present refused.
The v~iceroy retained his liver t. take
with him to Canton. so that he can
gloat over 1t at leisure.
Such was the barbaric exhibition
the viceroy of the Two Kuangs favor
ed the people Of Kuelir with. He is
one of the greatest OF China's vice
roys.

Sciatica Cured After Twenty Years of
Torture

For more than twenty years Mr.. j.
b. Massey, of 1922 Clinton st. Mime
apolis, MINI, was tortured by sciatica.
The pain and suffering which he endur-
ed during this time is beyond compre-
hension. Nothing gave him I'M perma.
ent relief until he used Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. One application of that
liniment relieved the pain and made
sleep and rest possible, and less than
one bottle has effected a permanent
cure. If troubled with sciata OF rheu-
matism why not try a 25-cent bottle of
Pain Balm and see for yourself how
quickly it relieves the pain. For sale

Laramie, May 8,


Laramie, May 8, 1906.
Dear Sir:-I have heard that a num-
Der of people in your locality are un'
der the impression that the University
of wyoming is ~discredited at the large
universities of this country, particular
ly at the University of California, l
should like through the columns OF
your paper to correct this misunder-
standing. When students of the uni
versity of Wyoming present themselves
at the University of California with
credentials stating that they have pass
ed the courses which are required for
admission to the University of can
f%ornia, or required in their college
course for one of the degrees, these
students of the University Of Wyoming
will be admitted without examination
and allowed to take the courses which
naturally follow those which have been
taken at the University of Wyoming
and If those students are able to do the
work assigned them with entire salts
faction, they will be credited with the
work lone at the University of Wyo-
ming. except of course that no one can
receive any degree without pursuing a
full years work at the University oil
California.
All That Could Be Expected.
This is all that any university could
expect another school to do for its stu
dents. This is all we could do for stu
dents of the University of California,
1t is just what the University of Cali
fornia will do for the students of Har'
ward university. No students have
gone from the University of Wyoming
to the University of California; some
sowever, have gone east. Last. Sep
TENDER a young woman went from the
University of Wyoming to Wellesley,
She has completed a part OF the sopho'
more year at the University of Wyo-
ming, and she was admitted to the so
phomore class without examination
Two sisters expect to go to Wellesley
from this university next year. One OF
them will have graduated with the
bachelors degree, the other will have
completed the junior year in the col
lege of liberal arts. 1t is probable tina
each will receive the bachelors degree
at Wellesley after completing a single
year of study there.
Very truly yours,
FREDERICK NJ. TISDEL,
President.
