AVOIDANCE OF FAIRNESS.

In an editorial in the Cheyenne Lead,
or of Thursday, giving q series Of ques'
tions for consideration by the com,
mission appointed by the governor to
investigate conditions at the Univer.
sity Of Wyoming, was Incorporated the
following, among other numbered Qucs'
lions:
"6. What right had the state univer.
sity managers to pay large sums Of its
funds to lawyers hired in a case pend
ing between the city of Laramie and
the city Of Lander?"
The Leader under its present man
agement has the reputation in every
city in the state where it circulates Of
never being fair in its treatment Of
any question touching the university,
and 1t is little wonder that the editor
will resort to absolute lack Of truth In
maligning the institution. The ease
pending between the city of Laramie
and the city of Lander" was never
pending between the city of Laramie
and the city OF Lander. The name Lar
annie occurs in the case only as the To-
cation OF the University of Wyoming.
In the opinion by Justice Potter, which.
by the way was sustained by the su.
preme court of the United States, the
CHIEF justice Of the supreme court Of
Wyoming in his opening paragraph
says:
This is q proceeding in mandamus
commenced in the court in the name
of the state, on the relation Of the Wy
oming agricultural college, and Matt
Borland and others as trustees Of said
state treasurer"
In not a single instance In the whole
opinion is there any reference to Lar
annie as a party to the suit in any a
The city of Laramie is considered only
as the site of the University of Wyo,
Guiding the agricultural college and
experiment station. Judge Potter, Ia
the concluding paragraph of his able
opinion, says:
THE college has not been removed
to Laramie, the eat of the university.
90 Ny "a
college was a part of that institution
before the location of the relator col.
lege."
There is no reason why Laramie
should be included in a case pending
between the city Of Laramie and the
city of Lander" The editor of the
Cheyenne Leader, il he be possessed OF
ordinary intelligence and presumably
some knowledge of state affairs, knew |
these facts, but he could not miss an
opportunity to use his hammer on a
state institution in whose welfare n
large majority of the people OF the
entire state, from Cheyenne to the Vel,
lowstone park, and from Evanston to
Sheridan, are intensely interested and
of whom they are UNNECESSARILY /
proud.

Deafness cannot Be CURED

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness Is caused by IN In
famed condition Of the mucous lining
of the eustachian tube. When this
tube is inf1amed you have q rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely cloeed, deafness Is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor-
ed IL 'ts normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which Ia
nothing but an inflamed condition Of

Pioneer Railroad Contractor Dead.

William A. Paxton expired suddenly
of heart disease on the porch Of his
residence on Twenty-ffth avenue, near
Farnam street, at 9:15 Thursday night,
says the Omaha Bee. In 1867 Mr.. Pax
ton took a contract for the building of
the first ten miles of the Union Pacific
railroad west Of Julesburg. He con-
centrated a large gang of men on the
work and did contract work at various
places on the Union Pacific during the
year following. He had an army Of
5000 men and 1900 teams. He moved
this immense force from Rock Creek,
Wyo., to Green River and then to Tie
Siding, where he was employed for
some time furnishing ties for the rail-
road construction gangs. In the win
ter of 1869 he closed out his work
there and returned to Omaha. He
then engaged in the cattle business.
In 1869 he, with others, incorporated
the Omaha and Northwestern railroad,
which is now part of the Northwestern
system.

When Her Anger Vanished.

She was telling a few visitors,
among whom was her best friend,
what brute her husband had been;
how he had left her to cry her eyes
out when they lived together, had
borrowed money from her and never
paid it back, and finally left her to get
along the best she could alone; all
about her trials and tribulations get
ting along till she could scramble to
her feet again and rsestablish her
self, and
Just about that time there was a
ring at the bell. She sprang up,
rushed into the hall, hurried to the
outer door, opened it; there was the
sound of a little smothered cry a
kiss, and her best friend, left in the
room with the others, arose and said,
softly:
Il think we'd better be going now.
Something seems to tell me that that
is her husband"

KISSING THE PopE's TOE.
Custom of obeisance Originated with
the Ancients.

The custom of kissing the feet of
persons whom it was desired to honor
originated with the ancients. The
people of oriental nations used to kiss
the hands and feet or hens of the
clothes of the persons they wished to
show respect for.
The ancient Egyptians got this Gus.
tom from the Assyrians, and later the
Greeks adopted the habit from the
Egyptians. The Romans followed the
Greeks, and then Pontifex Maximus
had his great toe kissed by celebrities.
The story will be remembered Of the
old Briton ruler who appeared to do
homage to a Roman monk after the
conquest of Britain. He was told that
it was customary to kiss the foot of
the holy father. He hesitated for a
moment and then, bending down, he
suddenly seized the monk by the
ankle and, jerking it up to his lips,
toppled the worthy father over back.

instinct Babe Him Respond to Call Of
the Bell.

II, B. Smith Of Monterey, Cal, has
a remarkable bay horse, Muggins,
which appears to have more religious
instinct than the majority Of animals.
The horse has been used by Mr.. Smith
for the last 25 years to draw the fami-
ly to the village church. In the last
20 years there have been only two
Sundays on which Muggins didn't
have to carry some member of the
family to church The second occa-
sion was few Sundays ago, A year
ago the horse was turned into the
yard for little Sunday recreation and
nothing more was thought of Muggins
until the far distant toll of the church
bell was heard. Then the horse
pricked up his ears, and realizing that
he was late, started off at a quick
pace for the church. He went directly
under the shed and took his accus-
toned place, where he remained until
1t was time to go home.
A couple of weeks ago the horse
made his second appearance at the
church alone. Mr. Smith had placed
Muggins in a stall and had left the
stable door slightly aiar. The old
bell tolled exceptionally loud and long,
and Muggins could not resist the call
In some manner he slipped his halter
and made his way from the stable
to the church, where he remained
until the service was over. The par
son patted the horse affectionately as
he trotted up to the door, and then
he started on his homeward journey.
