The ad mission of four m.'W states is received witli much satisfaction in Wyoming, the opinion being strengthened that Wyom ing's turn for adrmi-sion will now follow very soon. The Wyomingites are eager and unanimous for statehood. Democrats and republicans alike are working for admission. The territory cannot be Counted as politically safe for either party, and if admitted as a state is as likely to be democratic as republican, even though a . republican delegate has been elected for the past three terms. The population of the territory is grow ing at the rate of 15,000 yearly. Outside Capital is being attracted to the resources of oil, coal and iron, and developments are beiug made which arc bringing a large immigration into the territory. A number of lines of railway are heading for Wyoning aud the coming year will witness an amount of railway growth unprecedented in the history of the terri tory. An enabling act passed during the present year will bring Wyoming in as a sttte with population and wealth suffi cient to rival many of the older states. 'Wanted to. Tiorrow Horseshoes. In the pioneer days of New Hamp shire articles of ornamentation were al most unknown, and most articles of use were rare. In 17C9 there wero in the town of Sanbornton but three horses, three great coats, and two men each owned a pair of boots. It is said that tho first person who had shoes upon his horso gave great offense to a neighbor, who was nbout to go on a journey, by refusing to lend his horse shoes to bo used on tho occasion. Youth's Companion. President- Arthur's Scarf. Tho lato c-t-I'rcsiJent Arthur was truly rated a. man of courtly manners and bfarinr. whoso nppcaranco was in itself an evidence of gtntlo breeding and good taste. Admittedly the best dressed chief magistrate that ever sat in the ex ecutive chair, for many years he had never worn any styh) of scarf but a blacli De Joinviilo which long practice j'nahled hi;n to fold just far enough away from geometi i.-ally correct lines i.o impart an enhanced ch'cct of elegrr.ee. On full dress occasions Mr. Arthur, of course, wore? thy co:ienlional white iawn tie. Clothier and Furnisher. A Clever Notion, Don't You IIuovi'.

AMATEUR THEATRICALS. Utiles Which. If Observed. Slay Insure Ifaruionioas Performances. Choose a leading part in some popular play and permit nobody to guess that you think you can act it. Fersuade a number of your friends that a needy charity is in need and that acting begins at home. After inoculation permit them to set themselves by the ears over the choice of a play. When you think matters have gone far enough suggest your own as a compromise. This having been arranged to your satisfaction, proceed to ingratiate your self with the stage manager by telling liim wliat has been said behind his back by tho other members of the cast. If he don't resign he will offer you the leading part. Before deciding upon your costume wait until you learn what your most dangerous rival in tho company intends to wear. As soon as you receive the de sired information take the advice of your dressmaker. Study your part with care. At re hearsal miss your cue whenever you can and apologize sweetly. lie on your guard against betraying the business you intend to introduce when you have the stage to yourself, and m general allow tho other actors to derive the opinion that nothing but a regard for your feel ings prevents the stage manager from re questing you to resign the part that has been assigned to you. In the meantime cultivate the manager. Give no trouble about your dressing room. Say that a corner and a table are all you care for. Choose the best corner, however, and bring a chest of drawers containing everything you can possibly need in a quantity suilicient to prevent your lending to other members of the company. When suggestions are offered to you as to where you ought ' to stand, how to speak and when Jo gesticulate, adopt each in turn as it is made. Per mit tho leading man, who will of course be your lover, to gradually evolve the theory that though you cannot act, you aro not stiff or prudish, and that you are a nice little thing. Agree with him when he objects to sliaving his mustache. When he whispers under his breath that lie wishes the play were reality, smile and blush. From time to time applaud the others, especially when they overact, and say mournfully: "Oh, I wish you all were not so much better than I!" You may also contrive to impress each of your as sociates privately with the notion that you consider him or her the star of the troupe. This you will not fmd difficult. When you press people to buy tickets, say, "Oh you must come! Mr. Biggies is so funny! and Miss Lascellea is going tc look so lovely in court dress, don't you know! and Mr. Tollderoll is to be my lover," and then permit your hearers tc guess from your expression that there is more in Mr. Tolideroll's love making than you yourself imagine. Mr. Tollderoll may say more about the stage directions for the reconciliation scene than perhajis he ought. Of course, realism is not for a moment to bethought of, but there, can be no great reason why Mr. Tollderoll should not be allowed tc mislead himaelf with false expectations. If you choose to mako him jealous of Mr. Biggies, very well, but bo careful to re turn to a goed understanding with him before the dress rehearsal. As for Miss Iiscelles, you may disarm her by turn ing Mr. Tollderoll over to her for a half hour or so whenever practical;!? aiid by telling her in stricf rotilldeiico. that he (s afraid of falling in Jove with her because he has so little money. Improve a little jrj your aotlqg as the dress rehearsal draws nigh so aa not tc take your associates entirely by surprise. Suggest to the manager that you are only n rvoua over the result of the play. A:i roon as it is too late for Hiss I.ascelles to change her dress chow her yuurs, fv seen drinking coiTcu before the pljy begins, end Ktand as near the footlights a-j yon can so ;;! to get yourself flushed. When the curtain u rung up exhibit a lltlla natural timidity at first, but grad ually recover from that, and as tho plaj proceeds have pq mercy pn any one except Mr. Tollderoll, whom yoii, will, of course, encourage. When you are called out after the first act insist that they are applauding Misa lLasceiles, and that Bhe must go out alone; after the second go out with her, and after tho third go out alone. The next day meet Mr. Tollderoll in the street and smile at him mildly. If ho joins you go into a shop. Philadel phia Times. "In Forty Minutes."

Rufus Cook, a civil and sanitary en gineer, has addressed an open letter to the city council of Minneapolis, in which he makes some pertinent and valuable suggestions on the subject of city sani tation. He states that with the growth of cities there is a constant tendency to tho accumulation of unsanitary condi tions. Sanitary work consists in the application of preventive measures rather than curative, the latter being the prov ince of the physician. To insure this sanitary work being fully carried out, ample funds should be appropriated to the health department. People need to be taught that what they eat, drink and breathe has an im portant relation to their health and hap piness, and to maintain human existence in its highest state requires pure air, pure water and pure food, and these sup plemented by a pure soil. As purity of air is first in importance, the best system of heating and ventilation should be ap plied to all public and private buildings. A good plumbing law is one of the most effective 6teps in sanitary progress that tho city can possibly have. Mr. Cook quotes from the New Jersey board of health: "Most of our cities are 6till far behind in tho details of approved sani tary administration, and in those finan cial provisions, therefore, which are nec essary for the health of the people. In the work of sanitary inspection and ad vice, and in the general oversight of the people, we find a field of operation which might be largely extended to the great advantage of our citizens." The Sani tary News. Tobacco Used ia Europe. The total tobacco consumption of Eu rope is about 21 pounds by each inhab itant. In the Netherlands the proportion is a little over 7 pounds to each inhab itant; in Austria-Hungary, 9,8 pounds; in Denmark, 3.7 pounds; in Switzerland 8.3 pounds; in Belgium, 8,2 pounds; in Ger many, 3 pounds; in Norway, 2,3 pounds; in France, 2,1 pounds; in Sweden, nearly 3 pounds; in Spam, 1.7 pounds; ir reat Britain and Ireland. pounds; in Italy, 1.25 ptus, and in Russia, 1.2 pouinis. in tho United States the pro portion is said to be greater than that of any Luronean country except Holland 4 poiuiela per inhabitant. The largest revenues derived' from tobacco are those of France, Great Britain, Austria-Hun gary, and then Spain and Italy. Uhlands v ccuenscrhif t. Nothing to Offer.

"How is it," asks Thackeray, on one of hLs most characteristic pagest "that the evil which meq gay spreads bq widely and lasts so long, whilst our good, kind words, don't seem somehow to take root and bear blossoms? Certain it is that scandal is good brisk, talk, whereas praise of one'g neighbor ia by no means lively hearing. An acquaintance grilled, scored, deviled and served with mustard and cayenne pepper, excites the appetite; whereas a slice of cold friend, with cur rant jelly, is but a sickly, unrelishing meat." ' ice cia tngusn names are now given to the small women of the HU7BeTy. Dorothy, Cptlu rbaraTAnne, Eliza beth ratherino have succeeded the Maya, Coras, Mauds, Daisies and Carries that obtained so long; for this the whole American nation should be thankful.
