Through Mourning Millions.

Delayed for hours by the immense
throngs of mourning people who
massed close to the railroad tracks
in the larger cities of the route from
the west, the train bearing the body
OF the late President Will not reach
Washington until late this evening.
So Washington waits. in deepest sor
row, for the homecoming from the
final journey of the beloved Chief Ex-
ecutive, who went forth III June with
the cheers of the public ringing in his
ears, bent upon visit to the fartheSt
continental territory of the United
States.
Though this delay is disseminating
and deranging to the schedule care
fully prepared for the funera! cere-
monies here, it is not without its
valuable significance. Due as it is to
the desire of the people to pay silent
tribute to the nations dead, il stands
as in itself a tribute 10 him whose
body has been swiftly borne across
the great continent.
In Chicago, il is estimated, no less
than a million people massed along
side the railroad tracks merely to see
the funeral train pass. They assem-
bled in accordance with the an
nounced schedule and waited for
hours in stiffness and in silence There
were no pulsing movements, there
was no crowding. no pushing, no rude
behavior. Patiently they awaited the
passage of the black-draped engine
and cars.
Thus almost literally from coast to
coast this train is passing through
the heart OF the country. BY the
time it reaches Washington it will
..cva been looked upon by many mil
lions of people. who will always bear
in mind its memory. There must be
a quickened patriotism in conse-
quence of this sad transit.
There is a significance. too, in the
fact that the body of the last Presi
dent is to be borne first here to Wash
ington and then back for nearly five
hundred miles to its last resting
place, in Ohio. This was done in the
case of President Mckinley, whose
slain body was brought here from
Buffalo and then back to the same
state that is now preparing to receive
its native son in final rest. And it
also was done in the case Of President
Garfield, brought back from Elberon,
where he passed away, to the Capital
before going also to Ohio for inter
ment. For Washington is the official
home Of the Chief Executive. and
when their lives pass in the course
of their duties, no matter at what
point in the country, it is virtually
imperative that this city should be
the scene of formal rites, regardless
of where their bodies may rest in
peace that follows duty faithfully
discharged.

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS

surgeons prescribe and athletes use.

His head the great man humbly
bowed.
He faced, while others went their

They never knew how much he gave,
Asking so little in return.

UNIVERSITY LAW SCHOOL TO
INSTALL MODERN COURT ROOM

One of the new class rooms now
being installed in the new quarters
of the University of Wyoming Law
School will perhaps be one of the
most unique class rooms in the
country. The largest Of the new
room. is to be completely fitted up
as a modern court room with all of
the necessary furniture and fixtures.
Plans for the new room have been
completed by Architect Hitchcock
and approved by the University.
Work is to be started al once SO
that everything will be in readiness
for the fall term of school next year.
The plans call for a large
enough to accommodate about one
hundred and fifty peple including
spectators, a raised platform for the
Judges desk, the clerks desk and
the witness chair. On one side Of
the room will be provided a full
jury box equipped with swivel chairs
and surrounded by an artistic rail-
ing. Furniture in the shape OF coun-
sci tables and other fixtures have
been provided for and altogether the
room will present the appearance of
a most up to date and completely
furnished court room All of the
class work in Pleading. Practice and
Procedude will be conducted in this
court room in the atmosphere of an
actual trial and under conditions as
near approaching actual litigation as
it is possible to make them.
Adjoining the new court room and
reading room will be the new library
stacks with space to accommodate
about 1000 standard volumes. By
next fall there will have been added
to the already $500 volumes an ad-
ditional 5000 volumes thus making
a most up to date and complete
working laboratory. Tho practical
work in Wyoming Practice and Pro-
now being offered at the Wy
oming Law School has already Gre
ated considerable favorable comment
and with the addition of such a IL
brary and a court room even more
progress a be confidently expected
next year.
