Like most autocrats the sultan OF
Turkey goes about in hourly fear Of
assassination. and it Is ON this a.
cunt that he will never sleep IN the
dark. His constant dread of death
has made him a prey to insomnia,
and he does no, often sleep for more
than three or Jour hours at time.
II is said to cost him nearly $1,000
night to have his bedroom guarded,
for the attendants entrusted with
this important mission are a. tried
retainers. who receive princely sala-
RIGS for their work. Many are the
ruses adopted by the sultan to escape
from would be assassins. In one of
the ante-chambers leading 20 his prl-
yate apartments is placed life-sized
figure of his majesty, for the purpose
OF misleading any proving revolu-
tionary who might happen to pene-
trate thus far.--Tit-Bits.

Jade the Basis For Some Small Pro-
fessional Operations in Stock
Market Yesterday.

New York, June 1S.-Narrow re-
stricton of the price movement con,
tinued to be the feature of the stock
market today. Yesterdays downward
tendency was not far extended before
the movement turned and prices
hardened again. Dealings were so
Insignificant in volume that the fact
in itself deprived the movement of
importance
Professional operations of a
smaller sort apparently made up the
whole market Bulletins from the
Republican convention were made
the basis for some operations of this
kind. The adding of some qualifying
phrases to the anti-injunction plank
of the platform as at first presented
to the COMMITTEES and the inclusion of
to the authority and integrity of the
judiciary. We're haileG as evidence of
control over radicalism. Favorable
opinions over the wheat crop pros
poets also had an influence in the re-
coyery of prices from the early de-
preston. The weakness of Baltimore
and Ohio was not difficult to under
stand in view of the May statement
of earnings in which a gross decrease
of $2,27S,3G5 from May last year was
so slightly offset by the curtaiIment
of operating expenses as to leave the
net falling off to $t373,159 or Sc
per cent. This brings the net decrease
of the system for the eleven complete
of the fiscal year to $1,000 600 !
or % per cent The views of steel
trade journals on the effects on the
demand of the cut IN prices of pro
ducts was not hopeful, and another |
decline in the price of copper metal |
in London was reported. New stocks, |
however, were prominent in the late !
recovery of prices. The money mar.
ket has continued easy

EXPRESSES APPROVAL OF
GOVERNMENT CONTROL

Jacob Lund, the Big Laramie ranch
man and fruit grower, was a pleasant
caller at The Republican office this
morning and emphatically expressed
his approval of President Roosevelt's
land policy n complimented this pa
Ter on its stand in the premises. Mr..
Lund says he heartily endorses the let
ter published by Hans Olson in these
columns last week and states that Mr..
Olson did not put it one whit too strong.
He favors leaving the lands in the
hands of the national administration,
believing that with fixed rules less ia
voritism would be apt to creep in and
less Partially would be shown.
The Medicine Bow forest reserve, he
says, has proven a blessing to the
small ranchman, even though he does
have to pay well for using it, as the
cattlemen are given a show along with
the sheepmen. Mr.. Lund says that
While sheep will follow cattle it is a
difficult matter to get cattle to follow
sheep and hence the two do not mix
well on an open range.

TYPICAL WESTERN PLAY
COMING TO OPERA HOUSE

There is a pretty romance connected
with The Girl and the Stampede"
Bess Crabtree, the heroine, is the
heiress to an old English legacy, with
the proviso that she must marry hei
cousin, Arthur Harrington, on reach
ing her maturity; otherwise the for
tune goes to charity. Bess being OPP
posed to the marriage, a scheming
uncle fearing to lose the fortune by
Bess marrying someone else, succeeds
in isolating the family on an interior
western ranch in Wyoming, where
Bess meets Cal Blair, a typical cow
boy, who saves her life from a herd of
stampeding cattle. A friendship
springs up which ripens into love, not
to be shaken even when Cal Blair has
been accused of cattle rustling. for
she, by a clever ruse, deludes the sher-
escape. But being compelled to marry
her cousin to save her father from
ruin, the wedding day is set and the
ceremony is about to take place when
suddenly Cal Blair appears. On see.
ing her cowboy sweetheart, the old
love sprung up anew, and without a
moments warning she elopes with
Blair, pursued by an Infatuated uncle,
angry father and a rejected bridegroom
to a neighboring ranch, where old
Squire Wilson, justice of the peace,
performs the ceremony. The play
throughout is very intense and excit.
ing, with some of the most laughable
characters ever produced. Seats now
