The greatest inducement ever offered to you to look over our dine of Jewelry, Cut Glass,
Kodaks and Holiday Goods of the Western Drug Company. Make every purchase count.
The Rexall Store The Place.
As Winter Approaches the Merchants
Os Cody are Noting a Revival of Business—Fall and Winter Goods
Are Lavishly Displayed—Many Money Saving Bargains are
Offered in Nearly all the Stores of the City.
The magnificent line of diamonds on
sale at Bennett’* Cody Drug & Jewelry
Co. continues to draw the women. To
on.’ patron of this store a sale of dla.
monds to the extent of »700 was made.
The selection comprehended some
particularly fine stones. This sale by
no means depletes the stock, and per
sons desiring to buy will still find
diamonds to suit them at prices that
are very reasonable.
Dr. Bennett Is prepared to examine
eyes and fit glasses for defective
sight. Persona may have their eyes
tested and learn if they require
glasses with the complete assurance
that satisfaction is guaranteed.
This store has some copyrighted
novels that are the best sellers and
the dull winter nights may be bright
ened by getting the best and latest U*
the world of American novels. Some
are sold ridiculously low considering
the authors.

At the City Meat Market dainty
winter sausages, and kindred manu
factured meats are selling well by
reason of the superiority of the pro
ducts Mr. Esser Is putting out.

Madam Volckmer has inaugurated
a half price sale In the latest style*
of children's, misses' and women a
bats. There Is nothing cheap about
the offerings she Is malting but the
price. They are gotten up In her
Inimitable and exclusive manner. Her
many patrons are requested to call
early Saturday and secure the bene
fits of first choice of the several bar
gains, as she will only place about 2b
of these hats on sale. She haß also
some very fine willow plumes that are
magnificent. > Madam Volckmer vyill

hats for women making them as at
tractive as new—call on her for this
work.

"The Hunch Last” la the latest
:hlng in the celebrated "Walk-OVer”
shoe that the Newton Co. are the ex
clusive agents for fn Cody. This last
gives plenty of toe space, Is easy and
Is roomy and fits like a glove. They
come In radium, calf, Blucher with a
heavy double sole 616 Scotch edge
and 16-8 heel.
Mr. Newton has a new brand of
hose for men—the “Bachelor’s hose"
—lt Is also guaranteed like the Walk-
Over shoe.'
You know Newton’s motto—" Money
hack lr dissatisfied.” This means much
to the mother who has to practice
little economies for her dear ones.
Few merchants give more personal
attention to patrons than Mr. Newlon
—though he Is a very busy man.

Said a man to his wife at home
when the fire was crackling, and the
children were asleep “I wonder, what
Dave Jones will say this week. I like
to read that fellow's ads. I buy all of
my stuff from him, but of course don't
make a purchase every day. But each
week he has got SOMETHING to Bay,
and he does It right off the reel.
"This what Dave says this week.
We are careful In buying our notions
that we may give customers true bar
gains. We are selling a light weight
silk lisle, linen sole, reinforced heel
and toe sock in all colors for two bits.
Another of our sock values Is a fine
silk body linen sole reinforced heel
and toe at 60 cents the pair—many
stores sell the same for sl. Men's

In the Western Drug Co. we find
great enthusiasm In regard to the
Rexall Products. More of these goods
are being added to the stock. Sta
tionery, toilet articles, perfumes,
school supplies, all bearing the trade
mark of this great co-operative asso
ciation This organization beginning
a few years ago, now numbers 4,10 b
of the leading druggists In the United
States, the Western Drug Co. being
the dealers for this community. The
Rexall Store reports tbeir sales of
Rexall Products steadily Increasing
and patrons better satisfied under the
“Satisfaction or Money Back” guar
antee.
The Western Is placing on sale even
now many fine gifts for the holiday
season and prospective purchasers
will find a good range of goods from
which to make their selections.

Ladles' silk hose as long as they
will last at 50 cents a pair at The
Cody Trading Co. will no doubt draw
many ladies' to this popular establish
ment Saturday. It is rare Indeed that
the Big Store does not have a special
bargain for the women each week.
The house wife looks for them as reg
ularly as she does for the sun to rise.
Mr. Foster here has been very busy
opening new fall and winter lines and
marking the prices. The latter will
be very low In order to Induce early
trading and while the stock Is un
broken. Their line of ladies’ shoeß Is
exceptionally well selected many

What could'be more'pleasing in the
home when the nights shall become

to have the great artists in the world

If you call at Milo Harding’s he
will demonstrate how this may be
done with the Vlctrolas and Edison
phonographs.
The prices are within the reach of
all. There Is no occasion to be denied
the pleasures of fine music in the
home for your children and yourself.
You owe It to the children to furnish
cultured amusements In the home.
What better way than to go to Hard

Said Charles W. Lowrey the well
known Kimball piano man to The
Herald: "The pleasure of piano prac
tice has been greatly increased by the
Introduction of a new invention which
will be highly appreciated by students.
"This invention consists of a thin
strip of felt which may be Interposed
between the hammers and the strings
by pressing a third pedal, thus dimin
ishing the tone so that the Instrument
Is scarcely audible In the same room.
A piano with this improvement will
last many years longer, the hammers
being saved unnecessary wear; new
musical effects are also added to the
resources of the Instrument.
"This and many exclusive Inven
tions, are utilized In the construction
of the most modern pianos—the Kim
ball."
This invention precludes the old ex
cuse of many parents: "I can't stand
the noise of piano practice."
the 1911 convention. However, the
Burlington failed to connect, and
Thermopolls gracefully withdrew her
claim In favor of Cheyenne.
This Is the second convention that
Thermopolls has had to give up on
account of lack of railroad facilities,
the other being the meeting of the
Grand Lodge of Masons and the Order
of Eastern Star, which was also
changed to Cheyenne. No doubt there
will be no objection to the Hot Springs

Secretary Walker says that many
important matters will need attention
and that many wool growers from all
over the state have already signified
their intention of attending the 1911
meeting. The National Wool Growers
association will meet in Omaha De
cember 14 and 15, and a special train
will take the Wyoming bunch to the
national convention.
DEATH OF LEONARD HORR.

placed it at the disposal of the citi
zens for any benefit they directed.
Bright in his mental powers he
made a fine intellectual companion;
possessing the most delicious sense of
humor he was the centre of any group
of men with which he chanced; young
as he was he had known the world,
seen its darker side, and yet so sweet
was his spirit and so kind and/gentle
his attitude toward all of his fellows
that his broad and charitable views
enabled him to retain the good will
and respect of his contemporaries.
WHAT SHALL SYSTEM BE.
(Continued from Page 1.)
“Who is. your uncle?’' continued Mr.
Schwoob.
“We are going to form a company
to drill for water for stockmen, and
then we will be in a position to res
ponsibly back up our contracts” said
Mr. Foster.
Mr. Schwoob never did get that
evening a frank statement from Fos
ter as to just what his guarantee would
be, neither the name of his uncle nor
any tangible commercial references.
After some more desultory discus
sion on water and with the under
standing that they would again meet
as soon as Councilman Darrah got
back from a hunting trip that the
water bugaboo would assume some de
finite shape. Council adjourned.
Prior to the water works discussion
Fire Chief H. H. Schwoob and Harry
Robertson, appeared before the council
and urged that property owners be
made to rebuild ash pits wherever
necessary as the town was standing
in threatened danger from fire by the
existence of so many defective ash
pits.
The matter of an additional man to
make a nightly fire patrol waa thresh
ed out.
The discussion brought out that
S2OO per month was now being paid
for two mefi and that these two should
so have the interests of the town at
heart to divide the work and not place
the added cost of SBO upon either the
taxpayers or the business section. The
matter was not disposed of at this
session, but will prove a lively topic
at the coming meeting.

RICHARDS EXONERATES PAYTON
(Continued from Page 1.)
suffering from insanity, and that he
had been taken to Basin, which was
true. That part of the dispatches
stating that he was under arrest as a
suspect in the Red Bank double kill
ing, appears to have been pur'ely ima
ginary upon the part of the Basin
correspondent, who said that Payton
when arrested was constantly mutter
ing about the tragedy; ihat he was in
the vicinity of Red Bank when Mr
and Mrs. Jenkins were killed, and
that he wrote the first account of the
killing for the press.
In reply to a telegram from the
Cheyenne Tribune to Governor Rich
ards asking about Payton’s connection
with the death of his daughter, the
governor wired that paper from Red
Bank that the report was not true.
A tiegram to the Tribune from
Basin, says:
“Payton was not arrested on charge
of Jenkins murder. He is being held
by county authorities awaiting arrival
from Cheyenne of county attorney. He
will then stand trial for bis sanity,
which is very much in doubt. There is
nothing to the story about his connec
tion with Jenkins murder, and same is
merely conjecture. This is Payton‘a
fourth trial for his sanity.”
Payton is well known in Lander, |
having lived there at one time. Accord
ing to his own statement, he has suf
fered from intermittent insanity from
the time he was 13 years old. Ho has
been Sicarcerated in the Wyoming
asytatr four times and three times in
other states. He is about 55 years of
age and of unusual intelligence lie
has a family at Aripooish, Big Horn
county at which place he formerly
conducted what he called the “Com
mon Sense Farm,” at which he under
took to enable mental deficients to
earn their livelihood.
The fact that Payton suffered a
lapse from sanity about the same time
the Red Bank tragedy took place, ap
jjeara $o be the only foundation for
suspicion pointing to him.
Since the return of Governor Rich
ards to the ranch after the funeral of
his daughter and son-in-law he has
devoted himself to an attempt to solve
the mystery of their deaths and has
found evidence that a third person
must have been implicated in the
tragedy. One bit of evidence Is a
hitherto undetected bullet hole made
by a weapon other than either of those
found beside the bodies.

High School Feuilleton
Weekly Budget of Newt From Upper Clattet of The School
PERCY CALKINS , Editor
l
A pleasant surprise was given the
editor Monday evening, when a num
ber of the High School students ap
peared en-mass at his house. It was
too well known why he did not appear
at Sunday school and at High school
Monday. That fact seems to be the
only available object to lay the sur
prise to for no one of the merry com
pany, that beseiged the residence seem
ed to know who started the idea and
collected the happy band. Regardless
of these facts, the party caught him
in the act of shoveling coal, took him
Into the house and after all had a
good look at his still distorted fea
tures the evening was enjoyed by
song and conversation which lasted
until the hour of ten.
In perusing the wfeekly columns of
the Thermopolis “Independent” the
following greets the eye and suggests
a movement that should be taken up
in our own High School.
High School Contest.
The first of several preliminary pro
grams will be given at the Metheny
theatre Friday evening. These pro
grams are in preparation for the An
nual Declamitory contest. Seven High
school students will be on the pro
grams at the coming contest, and the
selections will be varied from the
serious, the grave, the dramatic, to
the Kentucky style of oratory and the
Hoose’er form of side splitting merri
ment.
Basket ball practice is progressing
I wonderfully despite the trifling flurry
of snow.
The results of the bidding of the
local news offices on the future High
School publication are as follows:

Work on the first issue of the Torch
is progressing fast and we are abso
lutely sure, that, when it comes out,
which will be ere long, it will pleas*
the public in every respect.
The following, from the pen of
Dorothy Waples, though not one of
her masterpieces, is an excellent
sample of her descriptive powers and
comes to the editor, as the best of a
series of characterizations, from the
Junior Class, of different pilgrims ia
Chaucer’s Prologue:
The Wife of Bath.
Riding in our company was a wor
thy housewife of Bath, a loud-voiced,
jolly woman, whose constant joking
and harsh laughter first turned my at
tention in her direction.
Her red face, coarse in feature, and
bold of expression, was not aided to
ward attractiveness by the irregular
line of teeth shown between her busy
lips. The neatness displayed in tho
hair combed tightly back from her
shining forehead, and the strength ia
her round red arms, combined witk
her inexhaustible energy in keeping
lhe strictest of order in at least ono
house of Bath.
Perhaps it was due to this super
fluity of strength and energetic self
respect, that in all things the good
woman surpassed the previous stand
ards. In cloth-weaving, Ypres and
Ghent could not equal her. Her friends
were always the safer to remember
the genius by which this vigorous
housewife so easily (she herself main
tained, at least) out distanced them ia
everything, and to respectfully allow
her to win her laurels without too
great competition. For often had tho
temper of our good wife’s tongue been
proved, and none in Bath 'could for
get that Relic Sunday when a devout
rival was first at the altar, stealing
the rightful place of my indignant
friend. The more unfortunate,
was her deafness, for a misunder
standing was often sufficient cause
for air so blue that it would seem an
imitated Monday.
Being consistent in all things, She
might have been called a trifle vain of
her appearance, for she dressed ele
gantly in ten-pound keverchefs and
scarlet hose. But she had grounds
for a little modest pride, for had she
not to her glory the very creditable
list of five husbands? And she could
choose a fine man, and easily recog
nize a good catch. For her curiosity
and love of gossip had led this good
wife through travels, not only in her
own England, but over all the conti
nent, and she had seen many men of
all varieties. Oh, this good woman of
Bath was well versed In all the devi
ous ways of treacherous Love.
