II ROYAL ROAD.

Down in Mississippi there Is a town
composed entirely OF negroes. The
presidents special stopped Tor a rev
minutes and vas greeted by practically
The entire population. In the course
of this short stay he delivered an ad-
dress that sounded the keynote of hu
man success. While saying there is no
royal road to success, he actually point
ed out this very highway. Through in
dustry, honesty II irugality Is found
the royal road to success and happi-
ness. In the course of his remarks the
president said.
Il congratulate you upon the V
dences OF prosperity that even tonight
1 can see here and upon what l have
heard about you. There Is no royal
road to good citizenship or to success
in life. If u mar is a good read WIN
ner, if he works hard and faithfully.
If he Is thrifty and If he tries to save
money, II the oma is a good house
wife, If she does her part, then that
man and that woman will achieve
success in life. No one a give it
to them from without. All that can
be done Is to try to get them fair
play. and then to trust to their W
qualities for the actual achievements.
ii the man CANDLES or drinks, IL he Is
a triier and idler, If he does not DO
his work, If the end of each year sees
him a little in debt and complaining,
not of himself but that somebody out
side has not done as well by him, as
he expected, if he complains that the
weather was not good, or the cotton
failed, but never mentions his own
faults, that is the type of man we can
not help. If the woman does not do
her part fairly and honestly in the
household or If each does not act SO
that the persons in the next house are
glad to have them as n%eighbors, tn3n

SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE
What Is Causing the Increase Of
Catarrh In Laramie.

In spite OF the best efforts of medical
men, catarrhal troubles are increasing
not only in Laramie, but all over the
country.
Catarrh is 4 germ disease, and to
cure it, germ life in the breathing or
gans should be destroyed, and to do
this no other treatment has such posi-
tive and beneficial action as Hyomel.
When the mucus membrane is irritat-
ed and raw and the tissues weakened,
there is an ideal lodging place for
catarrhal germs. Breathe Hyomei
and see how quickly 1t soothes the mem
~branes, vitalizes the tissues INT des-
troys all the disease germs, rendering
catarrh no longer possible.
There is no dangerous stomach drug
ging when Hyomei is used; nc tablets
or liquid mixtures destroying digestion.
Breathed through the neat pocket
inhaler that comes with every Hyomei
outfit, the healing balsams penetrate
to the most remote air cells of the
throat, nose and lungs, destroying the
catarrhal germs so that quick recovery
follows.
A. H. Cordiner agrees to refund the
money to any purchaser of Hyomei
who does not find that it does all that
is claimed for it. The complete outfit
costs but $1.O0

TIMBER AND STONE ACT.

The act of congress of June 3, 1878,
as amended by the act Of August 4,
1892, provides for the sale of timber
or stone lands, each qualified person or
association being entitled TO enter 100
acres. The land must be chiefly yalu-
able for timber or stone and unfit for
cultivation at the time of the sale. 1t
must be u"nreserved, u~nappropriated
and ~uninbabited. and without improve
ments. except FOR ditch or canal pur'
poses, save such as were made by or
belong to the applicant. Mineral lands
cannot be taken under the act. One
entry only can be taken by a person OF
an association Of persons. In case Of
an association OF persons, each mem
Der must be a qualified entryman; that
is, a citizen of the United tates or one
who has declared his intention to be-
come a citizen. A married woman may
take a timber and stone claim, but must
furnish evidence that she is purchas,
ing the same from her W individual
funds.
In the case OF timber and stone e II
tries the government requires that the
entire purchase price shall be paid
down at the time of making final proof,
which must be offered within ninety
days of the time of filing the sworn
statement in the land office. The pur-
chase price Is confiscated by the gov
eminent In case fraud is proved. The
only other expense in addition to the
$3.50 per acre for the land, is the reg.
lister and receivers fee of ten dollars
and the cost of reducing the testimony
to writing, about $3.50. The total ex-
pense of acquiring title to 16O acres of
land under this act is approximately
$432.50.

BEELER'S STRONG ENDORSE
MENT.

State Geologist Henry c. Beeler has
just returned from a trip to the mines
of the E~ncampment district and will at
once proceed to the placer mines In
the vicinity OF Lander that were al
legged by their promoters to have been
salted. The entire state will await II
report from its chief minera expert
wit hc~onsiderable interest. "a they
are intensely concerned in the result
of the inquiry. In discussing the En-.
campment mines with a reporter TO-
the Encampment Herald Mr.. Beeler
says:
Since my first visit to this dis,
trict my belief in ore deposits of vast
extent and great richness has never

was generally pleased with the physi.
cal conditions of the mine. There was
a time when the workings were not in
the best of shape but Superintendent
Manson has cut and timbered and
filed until one could scarcely suggest
an improvement. AS to ore, there are
vast bodies of high grade exposed and
no say how much is close at
hand. One cannot doubt the future of
such a mine.
The Itmay speaks for itself. 1t IS

Mr.. Beeler spoke at length of many
other properties he had visited, most
of which are in good shape and a good
number that hare the best indications.

COMING TO
WYOMING
SIR HORACE PLUNkETT REACHES
OMAHA ON HIS WAY TO HIS
HOLDINGS IN THIS STATE
Six Feet Tall and vlgor of Outdoor
Englishman About Him-TeIls a
Good Joke and Shows Apprecia-
ton Of American Hunor-Cares
Nothing for His Hereditary Title.

Sir Horace Plunkett, one of the best
friends Irish home rule ever had IN
the British parliament, arrived in Om-
aha on the Overland Limited from the
east Monday morning to look after his
extensive property interests here.
says the Omaha Bee. By 8 o'clock he
was busy at his desk behind the
ground glass door marked Sir Horace
Plunkett-Private," at 1913 Dodge
street. There he received a reporter
for the Bee with true British warmth
and a hearty Irish handshake.
Sir Horace is a man good to look
upon. He is six feet tall n there IS
the vigor of the out-of-door English
man about him. His heavy iron grey
hair is parted at the side. A full dark
beard slightly tinged with grey Gov,
ers his face. His complexion is rudy
and healthy and his blue eyes twinkled
as he talked. His words have a slight
flavor of Irish, which makes it a pleas.
ure to hear them.
Delighted With America.
Il am delighted with America on
this trip as never before and that is
saying u good deal i assure you. IL
there were no Ireland | should GER,
tainly choose Nebraska as a home. |
think you have more Irishmen in Amer
lea than we have on the old soil and
they form a strong element of your
cosmopolitan population.
The attitude of Englishmen toward
Americans now is, of course, friendly,
The days of bombast and of all feeling
are past. We are all of the same race
and we have the same interests. The
eastern question which is looming on
the horizon draws us still closer into
Fellowship. Blood, you know, is thick
err than water. Never was a truer pro,
verb coined"
The reporter at this point mention,
ed the mooted question of the proper
manner in which to salute a gentle
man of the peerage. He mentioned
the blunder made during one of the
previous visits of Sir Horace to Oma'
ha when some well-meaning but mis-
guided yerson addressed him Is "Sir
Plunkett."
Sir Horace laughed heartily.
Cares Nothing for Title.
"The proper greeting, of course, Is
Sir Horace" he said, "but personal
ly I much prefer to he addressed mere,
ly as Mr.. Plunkett. There is, perhaps.
a certain recognition due to the forms
handed own from past ages when our
|forefathers earned titles and wore
them as marks Of their deeds. 1t Is
human nature to love the title. / be-
lieve it is Mark Twain who said that
of the 1,500 colonies and generals alive
at the close of the Civil war there are
now only Is, 900 surviving"
Which latter remark proves that Sir
Horace, though an Englishman, has as
keen an appreciation of a joke as any
one. OF course, it is true, he's an
Irishman, and so maybe there may be
something in the discredited British
sense of humor after all.
Coming to Wyoming.
Sir Horace will be in Omaha the
greater part of a month looking after
his extensive property interests, which
are in the hands of Conrad Young. He
will also go out to Wyoming, where he
has a large acreage of farm land, irri.
gated and unirrigated.
