has judgment enough to build accord

is safe to say that a good theater and
totel would pay from the very first,
and It Is also safe to say that such a
building would enhance the value of
property in its immediate vicinity by a
very large per cent. No one can say
just how much, but perhaps 20 per
cent would not be too high a figure.
The time Is ripe for the erection of
such a building. 1t can be built by our

The proposition that Mr.. Barry has
made is not unreasonable. He says
very frankly that If our local people
desire to go ahead with the matter he
will step aside and give a sum toward
the bonus as a business man of the
city, but If the local people do not
care to take the matter up he would
be pleased to have a go at it. That's
fair.
Mr.. Barry is not a newcomer. He
has been raised in Wyoming. He has
practiced law in the capital city and
has at least five business concerns run

The matter is right up to the people
of Laramie. The Republican believes

this would be the better plan. 1t also

Danish Railway Projects

The folkething of Denmark has
adopted bill already passed by the
landsthing for the construction of new
railways. The bill provides for the
doubling of the line through Fuenen
five state railways, including a line
from Copenhagen to Kjoege. which will
considerably shorten the international
route via Gjedser, and 81 private rail-
ways, concessions for four of which
may be granted annually. The expen-
diture to be incurred by the state
treasury is estimated at $4,000 900
crowns (about SIS, ,000,000), spread over
16 years. During the final debate on
the bill the minister of public works
announced that a bill would be intro
duced next session providing for the
building of a bridge over the Masned-
sund, between Zealand and Falster, to
take the place of the present steam
ferry, whereby the internattonl route
via Gjedser would be still further i'm

Answers to Queries

FIVE HUNDRED-Mrs NJ. A. D., City.
Who counts out first in the last hand
in five hundred?
In all bidding games the successful
bidder has the first count and the hand
must be played out to see whether or
not he can make good his bid. If A
is the bidder it does not matter to him
who takes the first trick. B cannot
count anything until AS score is%set-
tied. If makes good his bid he
counts out. Were it not for this rule
it would be easy for the one ahead to
avoid all risk of bidding, sitting still
and picking up tricks enough to sweat
out.
DOG LICENSES-Su San Ra-
fael, Cal. Is dog license issued in
one city valid in any other city of the
same state where a license is required?
Each city issues it's own licenses
when one is required The purpose is,
primarily, to produce revenue to the
city issuing it. and secondly to place
mark on the dog wearing il. so the
owner can be identified in case the
animal does any damage. A license
issued in San Francisco would be valid
In Oakland for the latter purpose
