for the state and one for the defense

Quoted its last mental and physical eX
animation of the defendant.
Lawyers Were Barred.

BURNING RUBBISH HEAPS
GROWING TOO NUMEROUS,

Already the burning rubbish heaps
in yards and On the streets are growing
too numerous, and Mayor Spalding
should instruct his men to put a stop
to this nuisance at once. 1t would be
just as reasonable to allow business
houses to dump the ofal from their
stores into the street and set fire to
it as to permit people in the residence
portion to burn their trash upon the
premises. Laramie Is taking on too
many city airs to permit of this village
practice. If n person is permitted
to do this thing then all should be and
it certainly would be distasteful to see
a bonfire or ash heap in front Of every
residence in town to say nothing Of the
d~isagreeable stencil emitted from these
burning heaps. There are none so poor
but that they can pay for carting away
their garbage and the city authorities
should see to 1t that they are made to
do SO. Let the practice be stopped at
once.

MARINES LANDED On
COAST OF HONDURAS

treated impartially in this respect, al.
though the powers granted Command
er Fullam of the American gunboat
Marietta, which landed these parties,
are believed to be sufficiently broad
to prevent a naval attack, yet foreign
ers fear that the Americans would not
interfere to stop landing parties from
charging the local garrisons and cap
turing the ports.
No Fear of Loot.
The fear, however, that the captures
would involve the horrors of loot has
been ~dispelled, at least for the coast
towns, where the Americans are sta
toned, by the experience of Trujillo.
There the Nicaraguan captors conduct
ed themselves in a most exemplary
manner.
Interior Reports Alarming.

Wanted to Be Senator,

Washington, D. c., April 3.-lt
was authoritatively declared at the
White House today that the real rea,
son for Harriman's interest in the cleo
ton of the state ticket in New York

coed Depew as senator.
Governor Would Name Him.
The inference from Harriman's atti'
tude, it is said, was that if the presi-
dent could be induced to send Depew
to Paris, Governor Higgins would be
prepared to appoint Hartman to the
vacancy in the senate.
