New h o Co. Here.

FL. G. Wilcox and j. w. Brown
ing arrived here Tuesday from
Ogden and are making prepara-
tions to start out with their mov-
ing picture show within the next
two weeks. This is known as the
Novelty ShoY company. Mr..
Browning has just bought out the
interests of Owe Peterson, who was
the former partner of Mr.. Wilcox.
They will put on a show here
before leaving for their tour of
Idaho, Montana and the north
western states. The quality of
music and singing that accom-
panies this show is not excelled
anywhere and for a show of its
kind it cannot be duplicated in
the west. Mr.. Wilcox is one of
the finest ''catgut ag~itators" that
has ever been west and Mr.,
Browning's reputation will put
him up with the best.
Mr. Browning has just returned
from an extended trip through the
Yellowstone park, where he Sc
cured several hundred photo
graphs of the guysers, Yellow
stone falls, the grand canyon of
the Yellowstone and the many
other wonderful things to be seen
there. The photographs show all
objects in their natural colors and
will be transferred to glass plates
to fit the lens of their electric Ian
tern, so that they a be repro
duced on the curtain in all the
gorgeousness of their natural
colors. This will be an interest
ing feature of their entertainment,
and is something which is shown
by no other company. They hope
to have these slides completed in
time for their exhibition here.
They carry nothing but high
| class music and pictures and have
their own electric light plant and
machinery.

The Horse Situation.

DIR. g.. 7, Seabury, state veter-
marian, cleaned up his work here
yesterday and left for the railroad.
During his last visit here he tested
a great number of horses with the
Mallein test, and out of all only
found three which were infected
with CHAMBERS. This was a very
agreeable surprise, both to the
doctor and the people of this val
ley, as it showed eonclusively that
his work here a year ago was
much more thorough than he had
hoped it could be.
In regard to the typhus fever
which recently developed among
some horses in the valley, the doc
tor was enabled to check it's spread
in a g~ratifyingly short time. 1t
is now believed that the disease is
entirely under control. The cases
under his charge are all GONZALES
cent at this time and he now con-
siders it safe to leave them.
DR.. Seabury expects, as soon as
arrangements can be made, to
leave for Thermopolis, where CLAN
ders are reported to be infesting
the horses. He has received sew
eral calls from that locality, n of
which was by phone from Col.
Jay l.. Torrey, who urged him to
come to that country as soon as he
could make arrangements to do SO.
DR.. Seabury received a telegram
last night from Meeteetse calling
him to that place at once, as the

BROOKS IS

ton.

Word was received this morn
ing to the effect that the republi-
can state convention, being held
at Casper, had nominated Hon. B.
b, Brooks for governor after the
first ballot, upon which Brooks
had the majority, after which
Hon. J. E. Cosgriff got up and
withdrew his name and made a
motion to nominate Brooks by ac-
clamation.
The other nominations were as
follows:
Gelet for treasurer, Leroy
Grant for auditor, Cook for sup
erintendent of public instruction,

S. & E. Surveyors.

F. j. Cramer, chief engineer of
the Saratoga & Encampment rail-
way, left this place Monday with
a corps of men for the scene of the
grading camps on the line of road
between here and Walcott. Mr..
Cramer has orders to push the
work ON the road as rapidly as
possible and will increase his
party OF men as fast as the work
on the line requires it.
1t is confidently predicted that
there will be from four to six large
grading camps on the right of way
between here and Walcott inside
of ten days. Grading contractors
on the U. p, who have been en-
gagged in widening the roadbed for
the purpose of laying a double
track, having completed their con-
tracts there, r seeking work else
where. This will make men and
teams procurable at once and they
will make short work of the road
bed between this place and Wal
colt.
, 1906-08-30

CHAMBERS had broken out and the
entire county was infected. The
doctor will go at once to that
place.
The people of this part of the
country are very much pleased
with DR.. Seabury and the manner
in which he has handled the diff
cult work that he has been in
trusted with. They realize that
he is a very efficient and painstak-
ing officer, who does his duty fear
lessly and without favor. He has
never shown the least favoritism
in any way, and his examination
and testing of diseased stock has
been of the most rigid and search
ing character.

w Ould-be Suicide
Sent to ASYLUM

George Teteer, the man men,
toned in last weeks Sun as hav-
ing been brought down from the
sheep camp of Harry d. Blyden-
burgh by DR.. Price, after a des-
perate attempt to cut his throat,
has been sent to the asylum at
Evanston.
DIR. Price, after a few converse
tons with the man, came to the
conclusion that he was mentally
unbalanced. He petitioned Court
Commissioner j. F. Crawford, a
jury was empanelled and the man
examined. After hearing the tes-
timony of City Marshal Taylor
and Roy Wilcox, both of whom
had been in charge of the man,
and the testimony of DR.. Price,
the jury found the man mentally
incompetent and he was sent to
Evanston.
Teteer is from Oklahoma and
according to his own account has
been in the asylum in that state.
He also has a brother O con-
fined in the asylum in that state.
Teteer has had a blow on the head
at some time, which is the I'M
doubted cause of his trouble, for
he goes daft suddenly and weeks
afterward finds himself in a diff
ferent part of the country and
employed in some vocation and
has not the remotest notion how
he came there, all the intervening
time being a blank.

$4,000 OF
SMALL fry
Now is the Time to Plant
Trout Fry---M Mountain
Lakes and Streams
Should Be Stocked.

In conversation with Supt. G.
j. Rhode of the Saratoga fish
hatchery, he had the following to
say:
"There are now in the hatchery
at Saratoga very nearly $4,000
rainbow fry ready for planting.
"The number of fry Matched
this year is small, owing to the
distance the eggs were transport
ed. Some IS or 40 miles of rough
roads of it mountains-was
covered in order to get the spawn
from the spawning grounds to the
hatchery. Such conditions are
not favorable to fish spawn, even
in the most hardy stage, and the
loss in dead eggs was correspond
ingly heavy.
1.-The fry on hand are vigorous
and in prime condition, and those
desiring fish for lakes or large
streams should make application
at once. Some misunderstanding
seems to prevail regarding whom
to make application to for trout
fry. All applications must be
made to the county commission
ers, who meet regularly each
month.
at is DESTROYS just now to stock
the lakes that lay among our near
by mountains. These will be a
source of great enjoyment to our
tourists and citizens, especially
if stocked with trout, and there is
no more ideal place in which to
plant rainbow. The so-called
water dogs, or A~xolatl, are not
harmful to fish and waters in
which they abound should not be
neglected on that account.
The brook trout spawning
season will begin about October
21st, and continue until the end of
the year, although we collect all
the spawn we desire during DC.
tober and November.
ga brook trout female of one
half pound weight will spawn ap-
proximately 1000 eggs. Some of
the larger ones caught from the
river may yield $500. Rainbow
of two pounds will spawn about
1000 eggs, nj weighing twelve
pounds, taken from the Laramie
river, spawning 10000, all in
splendid condition.
within a few years, with
proper attention to their stocking
from year to year, our mountain
lakes will furnish some of the fin
est trout fishing in the world. We
must not forget our splendid
river, either, but for, the present
the river can wait.
