A Remarkable Cure

DIR. Green removed the plaster
cast from the leg of little Stephen
Michael the other day aud now the
little fellow, who is only six year
old, is running around everywhere,
apparently none the worse for
having his leg nearly crushed off
two months ago by a freight
wagon. DR.. Green deserves great
credit for the manner in which he
handled this case.
1t looked like the child was al
most certain to lose his leg at the
time of the accident, but skilful
handling of the case has brought
the boy ought in such shape that
the leg was not only saved, but
the little fellow will, in a few
years, never know that he had
been hurt.

Mixed Wives

In the early part of last century
there lived in an old New England
town a Mr.. Church, who in the
course of his earthly life was be-
reft of four wives, all of whom
were buried in the same lot. In
his old age it became necessary to
remove the remains to a new GEN.
etery. This he undertook himself,
but in the process the bones be-
came hopelessly mixed. His"New
England conscience would not
allow him, under the painful cir
cumstances, to use the original
headstones; so he procured new
ones, N of which bore the follow
z inscription:
Here lies Hannah Church and
probably a portion of Emily,
Another:
"Sacred to the Memory of Emily
Church, who seems to be mixed
with Matilda"
Then followed these lines:
STRANGER pause and drop a tear:
For Emily Church is buried
here
Mixed in some perplexing man
ner
With Mary, Matilda and probably
Hannah" -Exchange

the usual inaugural ball, probably
after the election of Unites States

l9O6-l9O7.

by Hon. Chas. F.. Winter
The silent sands once more run low,
The year-glass quickly empties now.
The grains-the hours-slip swiftly
down,
No glad reprieve 10 they allow.
Relentless time engulfs the year,
Its sorrows, Joys, inirmities,
And life seems all too brief for thee
A span between eternities.
But see, The glass has turned again,
lis filed anew with countless grains.
New breath, fresh life, all chance is
thine,
The world awaits him who attains!
The New Year comes IN youth and
power
And thou art richl Shame him who
shirks.
Transform the grains-the hours-to
pearls,
BY alchemy of hope and works.-En.

The dynamo is of the latest and

Saratoga was one of the best

Convenes Tuesday, Hon. O. H.
Brown Chosen President of the
Senate and Geo. W. Perry Sec.
retary--Scott X. Snively was
Chosen Speaker Of the House
and j. c. Argesheimer Chief
Clerk.

Both bodies of the Legislature
perfected their organization Tues
day, Hon. o. FL Brown, of Uinta
county, being elected President
of the senate and Geo. w. Perry,
of Sheridan county Secretary.
Scott K. Snively of Sheridan
county was made Speaker of the
House and j. G. Argesheimer,
of Laramie county, Chief Clerk.
Both bodies assembled in the
hall of the House of Representa-
tives and listened to the address
of Governor Brooks, after which
they both held short sessions and
adjourned over until yesterday, at
which time the other officers of
both houses, such as assistant
clerks, seargent at arms, door-keep-
ers, etc, were sworn in.
A great many matters of impor-
lance present themselves for the
consideration of the present legis-
laturs, not the least of which is
the question of railroad ASSESS
ments. The Republicans feel
that the time has come when the
assessments on all railroad corpor-
atoms in the state must be raised
to something near what it should
be.
The question of a primary law
will also come up for it's share of
deliberation. Wyoming is in need
of a primary law and it is up to
the present legislature to give us
one that will be effective and, at
the same time, work no hardship
on any one.
Another matter will also be given
prompt action and that is a depos-
itory law. The entire state is in
favor of a depository law if the
voice of the press is any guide to
the feelings of the people.
Still another matter is the polu-
ton of the streams. The present
law leaves it open to every enter
prise or industry to dump their
refuse into the streams except saw
mills. If this law is allowd. to
stand justice demands that all re-
straints be withdrawn and the
saw mills allowed the same privi-
leges that are accorded all other
manufacturing establishments.
1t is expected that the presnt
legislature will be called on to di-
vide several counties, Larmie, Big
Horn and perhaps Uinta. A new
apportionment measure will be
passed and there may be some bit
terness oe heart and some wrang-
ling over it before it is enacted.
