Jake Deldfelder, who has always wintered in the Powder river country, will dip his bucks at Lost Cabin. Bill Madden is buying all the sheen in this country.

He intended to buy out Joe Jay but got there twenty-four hours too late, E. O. Houck is building a residence at Buffalo Creek ranch. The residence will be on the land bought by Ilouck and Mahoney of Judge Brown. Geo.

Stone, who has always wintered in the Lost Cabin country will, the present winter, run his sheep in Big Horn county. Mr. Stone states that he will shear at Billing, next spring. Hoss Lambert, who was arrested by the Big Horn county authorities tor not reporting sheep, was fined ten dollars and the fine remitted, and is now moving camps for Pat Sullivan. Jake Delfeldor has fitted up his sheep wagon in palatial style and is reputed to have the best prairie palace on the range.

The walls are hung with master pieces of art that would bo a credit to the galleries of tho old country. In connection with his wagon he has fixed up a toilet room. Herein can be found all the usual furniture of a well regulated bath room. Mr. Del folder finds that Woodbury Complexion soap is a neoessary article in the sheep camp and it is nothing uncommon for him to hide behind a box each day.

From the attention Mr. D. is paying to his personal appearance it is whispered here that he is going to run a race with some person interested in Casper, and is living this attention to his personal appearance so as to attract applause from the school house in Casper. In his practices here he wears a nightcap, the gift of some dear friend, on the theory that he is growing so wise that he has to keep something on his head to keep from going through his hair.

the work of the teacher. In the afternoon the subjects of examinations and promotion were taken up and discussed together. Prof. Uidgaway thought it not fair to promote on examinations alone. He favored an average of class and examination grades.

He thought class standing should be marked after the recitation. Care should be taken in preparing examinations. Prof. Notson explained the method uf promotion in the Casper schools as will be found in the ''Hulea and Regulations" of the schools. Miss Heel gave the method iu use in the Cheyenne schools, also ex-plained the object of the state course.

Miss Turner read an interesting paper on the subject of music. MifjJ Burns advocated singing by note ven in the lower grades, if time enough can be had. Miss Hist thought much could be done iu fifteen minutes. Punctuality and attendance was then- considered. Prof.

Uidgaway said it was very unfortunate that some pupil sometimes enter the work a few days or weeks after the terms begin. It may spoil their work of the whole year. Prof. Notson gpoke of tho use of the flag and also some other devices used in sesuring punctuality and attendance iu the Casper bcIiooIs. Friday morning after singing Prof.

Uidgaway took up the discussion of the subject, "Public Schools." Thought the work done not equal to that done in sectarian schools. The influence of public schools prepares the children to take their part in the battle of life. There is better teaching iu the city schools because teachers are better paid, therefore they get the best. Country teachers should be the best paid as they are obliged to sacrifice go many opportunities of self improvement. AH teachers should spend at least one year in'a lirst-class uormal school.

Every teacher should go into the profession with the idea of making a success. They should have a high ideal, a high ambition, a desire to Miss Bethards thought teachers should give a great deal of attention to preparation of daily lessons. Miss Hurlbut thought in addition to that they should give more attention to a thorough study of the work to bo done during the term or year. Mr. Notsou said teachers should not cease to bo students.

It puts the teacher more in sympathy with the pupils. Prof. Uidgaway on "Child Study," said: It properly begins with the child before it begins to talk. How does it developer" What faculties are first developed? When? After recess Miss Bessie Jameson read a paper on "Character and D. MC1IOLHON, I).
