F.

"The population of Wyomlnc at preaent Is but 120,000 for the entire area of OT.KX) square miles, and we eatlmate the state haa sufficient mineral and agricultural resources to sustain 6,000,000 people," said Mr. Chat- terton. "The state at preaent has more at' tractive features than either Michigan, Illinois, Iowa or Wisconsin had in 1850, aa well as having more mllea of railroad. It Is covered with fertile valleys suitable for farming, and. the rolHng hills furnish most excellent gracing landa for both cattle and sheep. The climate of .Wyoming cannot be beat and the soil In many places Is a light sandy loam, with a good subsoil In the up land and In the valleys haa a dark rich ap pearajjee, which produces most bountiful cropa of cereals and vegetables. "n Wyoming are 4S,00O,00O acres of land subject to entry under the government land laws and over IO,OC0,600 aores of this la sult able for agricultural purposes when prop erly irrigated. Wyoming and tne rortn Hlatte project Will secure the benefits of most of the money set aside by the govern ment for Irrigation . purposes. It Is esti mated the United States government will during the next decade expend over $10,- uoo.OUO In carrying out Irrigation projects which already have been submitted for con sideration. "Railroad building Is rapidly being pushed along the frontier and several lines are stretching out Into this vast territory. "The announcement was made aome daya ago that Eureka, Cel., had been aaked to vote bonds aa a bonus for a road to be built from Eureka to Casper, Wyo. Of course we think this Is the Northwestern, whloh Is now building on west to Lander, but It la a question If this road will be ' built in time for the opening of the Sho shone reservation."

SUTTON CONSIDERS PROTESTS Clvle Federatlaa Attorney aa City Attorney Freseat Their Views a ftaloaa Aple. Judge Sutton has taken under advise ment until next Monday at o'clock the matter of Issuing a mandamue to compel the Board of Fire and Police Commission. ers to writs out and furnish transcripts of proceedings before them, sitting, ss a li cense board, In something like 170. cases. In these cases the protests of the Clvle Federation were overruled and the licenses were granted. Attorney Thomas appeared for the Clvlo Feratlon and set up four reasons why. In his view, the order should Issue. First, the clerk of the board must make the same without pay, on demand; second the board should have had the evidence extended and placed on file; third, the board must pro ceed with diligence in getting out such rec ord; fourth, that the board had no author ity to give the licenses, when it had notice of appeal, pending the settlement of such appeal, and the licenses so granted should be revoked by the court until final settle ment of the rights of parties In the cases appealed. Mr. Thomas put A. R. Harvey, clerk of the board, and Charles Potter, stenogra pher, on the stand as witnesses. Mr. Har vey and the attorney could not agree as to the exact wording of conversations between them on the subject. The clerk stuck to the assertion that the conversations had been general as to what the cost would be, also that Mr. Thomas had not expressly offered to pay for the work and had not specified what papers he wanted or in what cases. Mr. Potter read a stipulation entered Into between attorneys at the meeting at which thirty test cases were triud.. City Attorney Breen was willing to rest on the evidence developed In the question ing of the clerk, but the Civic Federation attorney argued at length his claims as set forth above. His argument stirred the city attorney to also talk and the whole afternoon was spent In loud conversation. Various attorneys for the brewing Inter ests were present to look after the Inter eats of their clients as they might arise, and from their seats they made a few sug gestions as the argument progressed. The gist of Mr. Breen's contention was that if a transcript Is made and furnished for the purpose of taking appeals the same must be paid for. He also contended no showing waa made sufficient to entitle re lator to the order prayed for. Mr. Thomas argued that, he had first of- ferad to pay a .reasonable .fee, but now he 'j stood on the proposition that he Is entitled ' to the transcripts without the payment of any fee.

It 'begins to look as it Deputy United States Marshal Jamee Allan will be the next federal official to fall under the of ficial axe. Mr. Allan entertains that opin ion himself and Wednesday morning Indi cated to Marshal Warner he might aa well be casting around for a successor to him. The departmental disapproval of Mr. Allan's reappointment haa not yet been re ceived by Marshal Warner, but reasona prevail that such aa Intimation Is now on tha way to Marshal Warner's office. The story that Allan was to be let out has been no secret at the federal building for several days and In the meanwhile Mr. Allan has been making a little hay for himself. Monday he was made a special in the secret service department at the stipend of 13 per day. "While I have not been officially notified that I have got to go, I have been looking for It for aome time," said Mr. Allan, "and have been preparing for the event so as to be ready when It does come. I know I have been the subject of considerable criti cism, but any man In this position could not expect otherwise. However, I shall not resign under fire, for I am not afraid to have my record as an officer looked Into. If the government wants some other man In my place It has the right to Are me, but I won't resign. As it Is, I am about the last of the eld Thurston appointees now holding office.

It Is under the direction of Henry W. Savage and is put on with the taste and display that have marked all his efforts. The company, which is headed by Harry Bulger, Is a splendid organization In all regards, and the whole Is one of the best things ever offered on the stage. Mildred Holland has so thoroughly Identi fied her name with the romantlo drama that her friends would be surprised to find her In an atmosphere other than that of en trancing romance. In her new play, "The Lily and the Prince," she Is in the very realm of poesy, and Is surrounded by physical and Intellectual beauties. Tho time of the play and the locale, that of Venice under the Borglas, permits' the use Of such coloring In costumes and Scenery and an elegance of manner that is not known elsewhere.

Brooding aver love affairs and ricrunvi animini are amid to fiaf ha,n TIIE VALUE OF CHARCOAL Few People Kaew Haw I serai It la Preaervlaar Health aa Hraaty. Nearly everybody knows that charcoal Is the safest and moat efficient disinfectant and purifier In nature, but few realise Its value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of It the better; It is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and Impurities always present In the stomach and Intes tines and carries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after amok Ing, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion. It whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently eafa cathartic. It absorbs the Injurious gases which col lect In the stomach and bowels; it disin fects the mouth end throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the moat for the money Is in Btuurt s Char coal Leaenges; they are composed of the finest powdered willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in . tablet form, or rather In the form of large, pleasant tasting losenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. The daily use of these losengea will soon tell In a much improved condition of the general health, better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of It la that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: "I advise Stuart's Charcoal Losenges to all patients suffering from gas In stomach and bowels, and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver Is greatly benefited by tho daily use of them; they cost but twenty-live cents a box at drug stores, and although In soma sense a patent preparation, yet I believe I get more and better charcoal In Stuart's Charcoal Losenges than in any of the or dinary charcoal tablets." .

MILLER SUCCEEDS KUHN Another Vat with lforthwetttra for Lift time General Agent Hers. THER OrriCIAL CHANGES TAKE PLACE Mr. Kaha leaves Company with Which He Has Beea Many Tears to Engage la Private Baalaeaa. Following the announcement that J. A. Kubn was to sever hla connection ' with the Northwestern railroad to engage In other business in Omaha, comes the official announcement of the Northwestern of the resignation of Mr. Kuhn as well aa the announcement of the appointment of his successor. The other changes announced to take effect January IS are: 8. F. Miller, assistant general freight and passenger agent, Omaha, succeeding J. A. Kuhn; H. W. Beyers, asststsnt general freight ngent, headquarters Chicago; J. 8. Talbot, assist ant general freight agent, headquarters Chicago; T. 8. Rattle, general agent, Colorado-Utah territory, office, Denver, Colo., succeeding D. H. Hoops, transferred; D. H. Hoops, general agent, freight depart ment, office 310 Clark street, Chicago, suc ceeding H. W. Beyers. S. F. Miller, who succeeds Mr. Kuhn, Is do stranger to many of the shippers Of this city, as he has been here on numerous oc casions and la well liked wherever he hat been. Mr.-Miller Is fin example of the way a man may rise In the railroad world by a strict attention to the buslneas of the com pany. He was first started In railroad work as a telegraph operator for the Northwest ern In 1880, and from that position was pro moted to be station agent at several smaller stations until 1897, when he was made gen eral agent at Oshkosh. In 1902 he was called Into tho Chicago offices as assistant general freight agnt. and It waa In this position that he formed tho acquaintance of so many Omaha men who do business with the Northwestern. This promotion Is one well deserved and the commercial In terests will be glad to welcome Mr. Miller to Ms new position. Great Westera Denies It. "The rumor that the Great Western will continue Its rate of S't cents to Chicago after January 15 Is all wrong," said H. H. Churchill, general ngent for the Great Western at Omaha. "Aa announced In The Bee two days ago and carried by the Asso ciated Press Wednesday morning, the fight over 1 cent on grain for the east has been the cause of the breakup of the rate busi ness, or rather the cause of the roads going back to the sum of the two locals by which rate all roads have agreed to abide. The eastern roads refused to accept any part of the cut of 1 cent required to make the rule 21V cents Instead of 22i cents from Omaha to Baltimore, which is the sum of the two locals. The basis which had been agreed upon was a differential of cents over the lS-cent gulf rote, but the lines east of Chicago would not participate In the cut. It will not affect Omaha very long anyway, tiecause It Is Impracticable to ship via the southern ports much after Feb ruary, and I think Nebraska corn will con tinue to move Just the same." Several Have Galf Cutlets. Several of the lines to the east have Gulf outlets for the grain from this section. The Northwestern recently has established a . new route whereby It hauls the corn to Dixon, 111., which Is on the main line of the Illmois Central, and delivers It to this road for shipment to th'e Gulf ports. The Bur lington has an established route whereby It can haul grain from Nebraska and deliver it to the Illinois Central at Centralla, III., thus getting a much longer haul than II delivered at Kansas City or 8t.: Louis, and also thus avoiding the crowded terminals of East St. Louis, wehre cars are laways de layed. "The Gulf Is the natural outlet for this country and it will always get the bulk of the corn in the winter time." said Secretary Merchant of the Omaha Grain exchange. "The railroad haul Is BOO miles shorter to the Gulf than to the Atlantic ports, and the natural course of the corn Is In the direc tion Of the least expense. In warm weather the heat renders the southern route not so practicable for shipment. One reason that the eastern roads will withdraw the rate Is ! that they probably have all they can do. enyway. The change will not hurt Omaha. We will ahlp our corn and send It by way of the Gulf." JOHN X. BALDWIN OOKS KAST Will Coaifer with Directors ! New York. John N.
