Stern, yet dear and friendly, is the
fall of Time, the comrade who never
forsakes us. Why do we fiaunt def
ance at him, challenge his advances,
and cheat ourselves into the belief
that we can outwit him? From the
pussy willow to the icicle, from spring
to frosty winter, softly stepping, noise
less and invincible, Time keeps pace
with us. He smiled over every one of
our cradles. He does not halt until
we reach the Inn of Journeys End.
Meanwhile he gives us many a joy.

If You Have Friends

or relatives coming to Laramie, be sure
their tickets read over the Union Pa.
cific. A long journey means extra ex'
pense for meals and ~incidentals, and
a waste of valuable time en- route. Why
have your friends incur unnecessary
expense or delay in travelling via cir
cuitous routes, when you can ride in
the finest train-On a perfectly ballast
ed track-over a direct road?
The fast trains of the Union Pacific
reach all principal points many hours
ahead of all competitors. Via the Union
Pacific it is twelve hours shorter tc
Omaha than any other line, Inquire OF

Complaint Is an Old One.

Laxity in public worship has long
beer a theme for preachers. In 1743
one of them wrote of the congrega-
ton of st. James, Piccadilly, Lon.
don, that they seem to be more
taken up with viewing and contemp-
lating each others dress and equipage
than in paying their devotions to the
Divine Being they pretend to adore;
and it is usual to see this set of peo-
pie bowling to their neighbors, with a
Glory be to the Father in their
mouths" And again: The ladies
show surprising memories IN this &C.
%casion, being able to relate on their
return home what clothes every wom-
an of figure had on from head to foot,
the ~fneness of the lace, and the color
of every ribbon worn in the assem-

TEN INCHES OF SNOW
ON LARAMIE PLAINS,

of snow fell here yesterday morning.
At midnight Saturday night it was
raining, the rain turning to snow, and
it continued to fall during the first half
of the forenoon, and by the middle of
the afternoon nearly all had melted
and soaked into the dry ground. No
harm was done and a vast amount of

get dry and the snow soaked in, hard

Death of John HarringtOn.

John Harrington, well known
resident in this community, was
found dead Sunday morning about
three O'Clock at the home Of his
brother Danny, three miles east Of
this city. The body was found bV
Danny, a mute, who was awakened
at three O'Clock by the barking OF the
dog. He went out and followed the
dog to the orchard, about $50 feet
south Of the dwelling, where he found
his brother John nearly lifeless.
DIR. Burlingame was called but John
was dead before any help could arrive.
Because OF the condition in which the
body was found it was suspected that
there had been foul play. DR.. Fl. f.
Elliot OF BereSford, the county coro-
ner, was notified and arrived in the
afternoon. He empaneled jury con-
sisting of w. W. Main, foreman, r.
M. Crowder and j. f. Webber. The
witnesses examined were Danny Her
rington, DR.. Burlingame and the
sheriff. The jury returned a verdict
that the deceased had come to his
death from oyer-indnlgence in intoxi-
eating liquor. Danny testified that
he had bought quart OF whiskey for
his brother on Saturday evening and
that his brother was reading at q
table at 9 o'clock and sent him 60 bed
saying that he would stay up and read
awhile. When Danny next saw bis
brother he was in the condition as
above stated. 1t is thought that John
having consumed too much OF the
liquor became crazed and ran wild
thru the yard, coming in contact with
wire fences, trees, bushes, ETC., caus-
ing the wounds which were found on
his person, His face was coated with
blood and the upper part of his body
was covered with scratches and
bruises.
John Harrington was born in Rhode
Island, Mass, 48 years ago. He
moved here with his parents In the
spring of '6s and has lived here ever
since.
The funeral was held Tuesday
morning at 10 O'Clock the services be-
ing conducted by Father Redmond at
the Harrington home. Interment
was made In the Catholic cemetery in
this city.
He leaves four brothers, Florence
and Curley of Beresford and Maurice
and Danny of Elk Point and two
sistere, Mesdames Jas. Smith and
Andrew Peterson.
Card of Thanks
The brothers and sisters of the late
John Harrington, together with their
families, wish to express to the public
their thanks for all aid given 70 them
In their recent sorrow.

The democratic correspondent ot
the Minneapolis Journal, under q
VermiIlion dateline, thinks the demo-
Gratis have chance of defeating Sena-
tor Gamble in the next legislature by
the stalwart republicans and the demo-
Gratis combining against the insur-
gents. The correspondent suggests
that Ed. johnson, now of Rapid City
and lately OF Armour, would be q good
man for this purpose. This is a cruel
blow to Richard Franklin Pettigrew.
When the democrats End the stalwart
republicans OF this state voting with
them for either of these worthless as
against Senator Gamble, they will first
se Bryan for president with Roosevelt
as his running ma,e, opposed by Shaw
and Kittredge or some other similar
combinations.

They can't let up, those insurgent
papers, more particularly those Of
democratic, popuIistic or sociaIistic
procliyities, as Richard Franklin Pet
ttgrew remarks. They are all nagging
away at the republican editors and
other voters who were stalwart dur
ing s'the late unpleasantness'5 trying
to make the bed the stalwarts we're put
into as uncomfortable as possible. But
u might be remarked right here, that
when Bryan comes into South Dakota
two years hence as the nominee OF the
democratic party for president and
makes few of his impassl0ned demo.
pop speeches and heralds his 'band
wagon. the republicans will need the
stalwart editors and voters to hold the
party together for the battle fol
sound republican principles, same as Il
did from 1892 to 1900, when large
proportion Of the fellows now nagginl
the stalwarts were voting for Bryan
