WILL TAKE DEGREE
AT CHICAGO UNIVERSITY.


Miss Harriet Knight, one of the
members of the high school faculty,
has applied to the school board for
a years leave of absence from her
duties, says the Cheyenne Tribune.
Should the desired leave be granted,
which it doubtless will be, it Is Miss
Knights intention to devote the year
to work in the University of Chicago,
where she has been taking post gradu-
ate work during the summer terms of
that university for several years past.
1t Is Miss Knights ambition to COM
plete during the coming year the work
required for the comforting of a mas
ter's degree, in all probability that of
Phi. NJ. The exactions required OF the
university are severe and 1t will be a
of great qualification to Miss
Knights many friends, as well as of
great advantage to herself should she
reach this desired goal of her earnest
post graduate work.

Cattle Not Allowed to Craze on United
State Forest Reserves.

Denver, May LIN c-ontravention OF
the laws of Colorado and decision of
the state supreme court, Judge r. F..
Lewis in the United States district
court, yesterday upheld the regula-
lions of the United States forestry
service in regard to grazing upon pub
lie lands. In a test suit arranged be,
tween attorneys for the government
and for the Colorado Cattle and Horse
Growers association the government
sought an injunction to restrain Fred
Light, a cattleman, living near Aspen,
Colo, from permitting his cattle to go
upon the Holy Cross forest reserve, al
though the land is unfenced.
By agreement the defendant did not
answer the complaint, but filed a de-
murrer, denying hat the government
has any legal right to prevent him
from turning his cattle out to Craze
under the common law and police law
of the state. The demurrer was over
ruled by Judge Lewis. Attorneys for
the stock interests will carry the Ease
to the supreme court Of the United
States.
