CHEYENNE, Wyoming, Aprif 6.—
Cheyene statisticians claim th|t to
day this little city of twelve thousand
persons imports more whisky! than
any city of equal size in the fjnited
States.
Cheyenne imports sn avenge of
one carload of liquor a day. R|cent
ly promulgated shipping orderi pro
vide a car loaded with liquor|shall
contain from ninety to one hundred
and ten barrels. On the basis Jf but
seventy-five barrels of whiskejsLwchi
car would contain three thoissnd
seven hundred gallons, as a standard
whiskey barrel contains fortyjeight
gallons, or 29,600 pints.
Now the Cheyenne statisticians
figure there are eight average sized
drinks in a pint, making the eai? con
tain two hundred thirty-six ihotjssnd
eight hundred drinks.
A total of two hundred and thirty-six
thousand eight hundred drinks \*ould
give everytman, woman and chijd in
Cheyenne twenty drinks a< piece
daily, enough, say these same sti tisti
cians, to keep every man, womai and
child prepetually intoxicated if they
were the only ones to drink thel quor
which arrives here.
But r.ow it is said that but
cent of Cheyenne's population
less drink liquor. This woultl make
two hundred drinks daily for the 10
per cent. And each person included
in this 10 per cent would have to take
a drink every seven minutes of the
twenty-four hours.
Colorado officials charge that Chey
enne is the chief base for “bootleg
gers” who operate into dry Colorado.
They point to these figures as con
clusive evidence.
It is figured that the fourteen thou
sand eight hundred quarts imported
daily represent a retail value of $44,
400.

GUMP LIFE OF SOURS
DEVELOPS PHILOSOPHERS
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., April G.—
“Getting used to the army,” a state of
mind which many young civilians are
seeking to achieve, has developed
many overnight philosphies.
A youth accustomed to get up and
go to bed when he pleased, and tc
spend the day on the same sort ol
schedule, confided to a friend here re
cently that it all depended upon the
point of view.
“When I hear that bugler blowing
reveille at 5:45 a. tn. it doesn't get or
my nerves a bit,” he said. “I think te
myself, ‘Isn't it great to have a mar
hired to tell you when to get up it
the morning?' and that makes it good
sport.
I
“When I see my captain going up
the street, I reflect that I'm in the
care of more experts and specialist?
than T could employ if 1 were a mil
lionaire, all looking after me, to see
that I have plenty of clothing and food
and am kept in good health.
“The sergeant who puts us through
our paces at setting-up exercises:
probably is just as good as any man
I could employ, if I were wealthy, tc
keep my body in good shape.
“On top of it all, I get paid, and nol
a day goes by without a new experi
ence and a good laugh.
“It’s better luck than I ever ex
pected to have, and if I can do any
good for my country on top of it all
I’m ready to do it.”
A young sailor wearing the red
stripe of the engine-room in his shoul
der seam had his own ideas of serv
ice.
“Why did you enlist as a fireman?”
he was asked. The question embar
rassed him manifestly and he squirm
ed.
“As far as I could learn,” he ex
plained, “the firemen have about the
toughest job aboard ship, and 1
thought probably a lot of fellows
would not want it, so I signed up to
work below.”
