MORE WKISKEY IS CONSUMED
 IN CHEYENNE

CHEYENNE, Wyo., April 3.-Chey- enne statisticians claim that today this little city of 12,000 persons i'm ports more whiskey than any city of equal size in the United States.
 Cheyenne imports an average of one carload of liquor a day. Recent. y promulgated shipping orders pro- vide a car loaded with liquor shall contain from ninety to 110 barrels. On the basis of but 75 barrels of whiskey each car would contain 3,700 gallons as a standard whiskey barrel contains forty-eight gallons, or 29,Go0 pints
 How the Cheyenne statisticians fi- gure there are eight average sized drinks in a pint, making the car contain 236.S00 drinks.
 total of 236S00 drinks would give every man, woman and child in Cheyenne 20 drinks a piece daily enough say these same statisticians to keep every man. woman and child perpetually intoxicated if they were
 
 which arrives here.
 But now it is said that but 10 per cent. of Cheyennes population or even less drink liquor This would make 200 drinks daily for the ten per cent And each person included in this 10 per cent. would have to take drink every seven minutes of the twenty-four hours.
 Colorado officials charge that Chey- enne is the chief base for ''boot- leggers" who opearte into dry Colo rado. They point to these figures as conclusive evidence
 It is figured that the 1i,S00 quarts imported daily represent a retail value of 54f,400

SHOWING
Of HOME GUARD
IN FIRST DRILL

Captain ellis last evening appoint
ed Calvin Hazelet first lieutenant in
the Home Guard, to fill the vacancy
that will be left by the absence of
Jack Sapiro, who expects to leave on
the steamship Northwestern for an
extended visit to the States. Ivan
Supphelen was appointed second lieu
tenant to replace Calvin Hazelet. Mr..
Sapiro was given a vote of thanks by
the officers for his work and his help
in successfully organizing the Home
Guard company.
The six divisions of the guard,
which have been drilling separately,
assembled last night on the baseball
field at the command of Captain Gil
lis, and were formed by him into COM
pany formation. This is the first time
that all the men have been together
since the first meeting There were
over ten squads, or a total of more

They were given the marchings and
simple squad movements by the va
rious officers in turn. Although the
line was not always perfect, and some
of the movements were somewhat rag
ged, the officers were unanimous in
agreeing that the men had made a
splendid showing for the first time
they were put together
At 9 o'clock the men were marched
up town and dismissed in front of
Eagles hall.
At the next meeting, Tuesday, May
81, the men will assemble at the va
rious halls and then, if the weather
permits, will march to the baseball
field and form into company line.

WITH THE AMERICAN
ARMY IN FRANCE

The American dead, sleeping IN
the soil of France, receive the hon.
age of the American army on Me-
mortal day. Many of those who
have given their lives for their. coun-
try are buried in graves over which
,hells and bullets are flying close
to where they fell. But wherever
they are resting, their comrades
will bear them in mind and pay tn
butte to their memory.
To many Americans now fighting
in France Memorial day heretofore
simply has meant a holiday. In a
vague way they appreciated the
meaning Of the decoration of graves
by the survivors Of Civil War days,
but now they regard Memorial day
in a different light, for it means
honoring the memory of men they
have known, bunked with and fought
with.
Throughout all the zones in
which there are American soldiers,
plans-have been made for ceremon-
les, in which the French will largely
participate. AT one place is a row
of mounds under which lie sons of
New York. Men of the same regi-
ment will gather there to replace
the faded American flags with new
ones and deposit wreaths of fresh
flowers and others which will with
stand time and weather.
At general HEADQUARTERS all
graves of American and French sol
diers in that vicinity will be deco
rated with flowers and crossed flags
the Star Spangled Banner ana
the tricolor of France. Led by a
band, body of soldiers will march
to the main cemetery. There the
troops viii be drawn up while AM
'erican and Frenzy army chaplains
repeat prayers for the dead. A
squad will fire a salute.
All the other ceremonies will be
similar. In the sector northwest of

RATES AND WAGES INCREASED

Freight rates and passenger rates
on all the railroads have been in
creased. The freight rates have
been raised % per cent and the
passenger rates increased from 2l1a
cents per mile to 3 cents. 1t is es-
timated that these increases will
bring in from eight to nine million
dollars more revenue per year to
the railroads. This increase was
necessary owing to the increases
made in the employees salaries and
general upkeep of the roads. This
is the greatest increase in rates in
the history of the railroads. The
above orders for freight increases
go into effect June 25th, while the
passenger service increase goes in
to effect June 10th.
