posed building at CY and Ash
streets according to the plans which
the architect is preparing. The
tower of the building will be six
feet from the street ard the main
part of the building will be eleven
feet from tho street. Members Of
the council brought out tho fact
that they were willing TO do every
thing in their power TO get more
churches in Casper, and all con-
cessions possible would be- made.
Tho English Lutheran church will
be on q triangular lot and will be n
credit to Casper. Excavation will
begin next week.
A motion was made empowering

HISTORY OF NATR0NA COUNTY
by A. ]. M0KLER REPRESENTS
YEARS OF HARD Work

cunt Of interest and keenness one
would give to tho best novel OF
western life.
The History of Netrona County"
is on sale at the Midwest Pharmacy.
Trevette's Confectionery store, Cas-
per Stationery store. Mills Stationery
store, Stockmen's National bank
and the Campbell,Johnson company.
1t may seem at nrst thought that
the price of this voiume-S12.60-is
n little high. But when one stops
to consider that because OF the ma
ture of the book but few copies may
be published on account of the COM
paratively limited market, that much
work and many years have been
spent by Mr.. Mokler in preparing
and writing his book. there will be
no further hesitancy in paying a
price which permits the author prac-
ticaIly nothing for his exhaustive
work.
This book may be procured by
mail by those living outside of Cas-
per. A money order should be SEM
In payment and the volume will be
shipped prepaid.
AS mentioned before. there have
been very few of these books printed
and It therefore behooves those who
wish to have the history IN their
libraries. and who cannot afford to
pass up this opportunity. to procure
a copy with no delay. .

There IL q recent book which will
500 be In every good and substan-
tial home IN Natrona county. in
every public library in tho state. and
in the hands of all those who con-
cider themselves as having been pio-
neers in the upbuilding of Wyoming.
This book is Alfred ]. Moklers ex-
cellent and thoroughly complete
History of Natrona County"
This volume is no dry compendiura
of dates and major events alone, ar
ranged in u~nattractive sequence. and
has not been written by one to
whom the historical happenings.
which comprise the story, are a mat
ter merely requiring n new back
ground of words. Mokler himself
is one of tho besi known and Oldest
pioneers of Natrona county.
After having lived through tho
strenuous and stirring life OF early
times he has given more than three
full years to gathering absolutely
accurate accounts Of all records that
are properly a part of such a his
tory. His has beer no small task.
To say that three solid years may
be set aside as the definite time con-
sumed in compiling and writing his
book on Natrona county is a mis-
take. Rather he has spent the en-.
tire period of his life here in absorb
ing first hand impressions. always
bearing in mind his ultimate object
that Of preparing and publishing n
history.
Two thousand pages were tho
makeup OF the original volume but
after carefully revising and re-revis-
ing the number OF pages was cut to
a little less than 600. This. con-
~densation illustrates the skill OF the
author in bringing together the es-
sentiais of his story. .
That all pioneers will relish this
oxcellentiy written and authentic his
tory OF Natrona county. is assured.
But equally true is the fact that re-
CARELESS of the time one has spent
in this state. or in this county, and
regardless of the age OF tho person

 Open Warefare has split the Cos mopolitan Bible class wide open.
 Patrols are active. Reinforce ments. are being brought up, and zero hour for the next attack is set for 9:30 o'clock Sunday morning in the auditorium of the Y. M. c. A.
 All this refers, of course, to the spirited contest now on among the the class. It will terminate at the end of the year with the award of the honors to the faction which hangs up the best attendance rec ord.
 Charles R. Dickenson is leading the bachelors. The home boys are being spurred on by William contest ends. The checks will have to be paid by the crowd which comes out second best"
 The benedicts claim they entered the contest at a disadvantage. It was due to the fact that bachelors have much more time to call their own than men, who, at one time or another, committed matrimony Yet, the race thus far looks like a toss up. Both crowds are filing into the auditorium each Sunday morning by the hundreds.
 The CoSmopolitans last year won the honor of being Birmingham pre-eminent Bible class. They won the attendance prize in competition with other Sunday school organiza- . tions.
 One of the expected results of the current contest is a Sunday school class with more than 1000 members, most or whom will be in their places each Sunday. All of which would indicate. observers say that Bir mingham is not drifting backward, q affer al
