SITUATION.

There is TO be a great deal doing on
the railroad map of Wyoming during
the next few years. Both north and
south and east and west lines are be-
ing seriously considered. The Burling-
ton is anxious to have a better Denver
connection to the northwest and there
now appears to be no question but that
work will begin in the near future on
the contemplated line from Laurel,
Mont, to Frannie, Wyo., thus cutting
out the expensive haul by the way oil
Toluca. The line up the Big Horn
will then be extended from its present
terminus to Shoshoni, on the North
western, with which company 1t Is
entirely probable that the Burlington
will make a tpafffc agreement to run
over its line to Grin Junction. Recent
stock purchases and actions on the
part of the Burlington people also in
dictate that the track of the Colorado
and Southern from Grin Junction to
Cheyenne might be used by that com
pany, thus giving them a through con
nection with their Cheyenne Inc to
Denver. 1t is probable, however, that
some short cuts east of Greeley Will
be made, for the purpose of reducing
the mileage. This connection through
from Montana to Denver would give a
very satisfactory line till a more di-
rect line by the way of Fort Collins
and Laramie could be completed.

SEPARATE SCHOOLS
FOR DEFECTIVE PUPILS.

-
II is the intention of Superintendent
Dyer of the Cincinnati public schools
to establish in the new first interme.
diate school, when 1t Is opened at the
beginning of the next school year.
some six or eight rooms for the bene-
fit of retarded pupils.
The action Of Superintendent Dyer
is the result of the constant discus
sion of defective and retarded chill
dren by the Principals association dur
ing the last school year. This had
been suggested in the last annual re.
Frort OF the school superintendent.
1t was the belief of Superintendent
Dyer that constant investigation on
the part of the various school prin-
cipafs would show to the board OF edu-
cation the need Of some action to
care for retarded children.
It is his belief that the board will
allow an experiment to be made dur
ing the coming school year, and from
the various downtown schools retard
ed and defective children will be sent
to the rooms that will be- arranged In
the first intermediate.
Further Superintendent D~yerexplain.
ed that the question of retarded chill
dren was being made a close study ov'
er the country. Many things had tc
be experimental with to bring educa
ton up to its present standard, and
the object of the discussion of a year
among the principals was to evolve
plans,for experiments to be made when
the board OF education could make
them.

SECULAR SHOTS AT THE PULPIT.

st. Louis Times: When Father Cot
fey said that the three great infiu-
ences of the age are the church. the
newspaper and the stage he said the
last word on a big subject.
Philadelphia Record. Urban Metho-
dists asked the general conference to
relax the ban upon dancing, cards and
the theater. But the rural vote las
come in and the prohibition will stay.
Habits don't change so fast in the
country as in the city and the force of
tradition is stronger.
Kansas City Star: Happily a decline
In theology would signify not the least
abatement of pure and undefled re-
ligion. The power of dogma may con
tinue to subdue indefinitely without
showing any influence whatever Oh
the growth and expansion of morality
or the basic factors OF right living.
New York Tribune: They do say
down Baltimore way that IL the indie
fatigable heresay hunters charges
against four OF the bishops Of the Me
thodist church fail he will make at the
text general conference charges of
administration and heresay against
the whole church. excepting only him
self.
Baltimore American: A mems
church has been established in Attain
tic City, which. 1t Is hoped, will be
made popular both through its posi-
tive and negative qualities. The posi-
tive virtues are pipes. cigars and NOV
ing pictures through the sermon. The
negative virtues are the absence Of
merry widow" hats and general fe-
minnie f~rivolity. The idea of the en-
terprising mind which started these
unique services is that evidently It is
better for men to smoke here than
hereafter.

Something Wrono.

Myron Wall, one of the handsomest
men in the railway service here, and
usually very popular with the girls, is
spending some time with friends al
San Diego. He is in the land of roses
during the month OF roses, n for all
that writes to the city editor OF The
Republican, NO wedding bells for me-
There is a deep mystery about this
message. The Republicans Cupid
staff are at work on the matter in the
hope that the true inwardness of the
matter may be brought to light.

Houtz Gets Judament.

Judgment for ~$2,346.16, with $S97.73
interest, was awarded John s.. Houtz
in the district court at Ogden, Tues
day against the Union Pacific railroad
company as damages on a shipment of
sheep which were not properly cared
for by the company in transit.
Several carloads of sheep were ship
ped from Soda Springs, Ida, to Om-
aha, in August, 1903. According to the
complaint they were neglected and al.
lowed to remain in the cars for seven
ty-two hours without feeding. and ar.
rived at the stock yards too late to be
sold on the market and in a badly
damaged condition.
