THE ADMISSION OF DAKOTA.
Admission Ell Dakota.

WARRINGTON, February delegate
Clifford, of Dakota, was heard this morn
ing by the House committee on Terri
tories in favor Of the bill to ad Lit North
and South Dakota as separate States.
He said the proposed States contain
each nearly 5000 square miles. Gif-
ford read statements tending to sub
stantiate the claim that the proposed
States possess in eminent degree the
conditions requisite to .eRtitle them to
admission to the sisterhood of States.
All persons will agree, he said, that the
treatment received by the Territory
from the hands of Congress regarding
this matter of Statehood is without
parallel in the country's history. In
its neglect and injustice he held that an
excellent reason for division and the
admission of the two parts of the Ter
ritory to be distinct States was that the
functions of government could be bet
ter exercised by two States of medium
size than .wonld be the case if the Ter
ritory in Its large unwieldy condition
were admitted as whole.
Arguments were also heard in favor
OF admitting Dakota as whole.

The Railroads and Telegraphy.

NEW YoRR, January 1.-The law
allowed the Pacific railroad companies
to take contracts with telegraph COM
panies and of course they did it.
That's all 1 know about it." was the
answer of G. P. Huntington yesterday
morning. when the Anderson bill was
brought to his attention. DIR. NOrvin
Green, president of the Western Union
Telegraph Company, said: ,"The bill
affects us verv little, because we have
our own wires there. Anderson's bill
undertakes to pass upon the judicial
question, whether railroads had right
to make contracts with telegraph COM
panies. The courts have already de-
cided that they had such right. The
question is matter of much more i'm
portance to railroad companies than
to us. We hav Our lines th.re, and
the only damage it would do us would
be to put US to the expense Of few
more Offices on the line Of the route,
but as we should get all the receipts
instead of giving railroads one-half as
we do now, our increased expense
would be more than met by the in
creased revenue"

Growing Tall by Exercise.

Exercise is generally taken without any
direct reference to the increase of height.
Thus it often happens that the gymnastic
feats chiefly INDUCED in tend rather to
check than to increase the rate of growth.
This applies particularly to the lifting of
heavy weights, the use of large dumb
bells, involving comparatively slow move
ments, and all exercises which tend to in
crease the supporting power of the spine
and the leg bones, even though they may
be exercises primarily directed to increase
the muscular power of the arms. Pull
ing exercises, though they tend to increase
the development of the arms in length as
well as in girth round the forearm
chiefly, do not on the whole favor the
development of length of limb. Sailors,
who from boyhood upward are much
employed in pulling and hauling, are on
the average short men, though often the
development Of strength and weight re-
sulting from their active open air lives is
remarkable. We see oftener among them
than in other classes brawny chests,
shoulders and upper arms in company
with lower limbs which by comparison
appear almost stunted. On the other
hand, men engaged in hunting, or in &C.
equations requiring much walking, run
ming, leaping and the like, acquire well
developed lower limbs, and are on the
average taller than other classes. -Profes-

A Queens Ambition Disappointed.

1t Is now twenty years since the curtain
was rung down on the bloody drama which
the Imperialist party played on Mexican
soil, and what is the impartial verdict Of
the men and women who knew the inside
history of Maximilian's reign5 l have
talked with several of the leading person
ages who played a part in the sad business,
and they were among those near to the
emperor during his whole stay in Mexico.
They agree on one point, and that is that
Macmillan was Inadequate to the situa-
ton; that he was vascillating where Car
lotta was firm; that he was swayed hither
and thither, and accepted the advice Of
the last man who caught his ear, while
Carlotta used men and events with mas
culine strength and was, behind all, the
guiding and animating spirit.
She, the daughter of the king of the
Belgians, had the heart of a soldier and
the head of a statesman. 1t was her
dream to wear an imperial crown, and it
was the loss of her crown, and not the
death Of her husband, that unsettled her
reason. Disappointed ambition, and not
a shock to her affections, made a mad
woman of her. Her intimates here say
that there was no love lost between her
imperial husband and herself. Theirs
was a marriage of state and dictated by
no sentiment beyond and above that Of
governmental policy. She was ardent,
ambitious, woman of large projects; he
was better fitted for the elegant life of
scholarly prince, and was unsuited to the
tempest of war and the clash of arms

Description of the Catacoinbs.

The Roman CatacombS are long and
narrow passages or cross gafleries, eXca-
waited in the bowels OF the earth in the
hills outside and around the city, for the
burial of the dead. They are dark and
gloomy, with only an occasional ray Of
light from aboveN The galleries have two
or more stories, all filed with tonlbs, and
form an intricate net work or subter-
ranean labyrinth. Small compartments
Qoculi) for the reception of the dead were
cut out like shelves in the perpendicular
walls, and rectangular chambers tcubicula)
for families or distinguished martyrs.
They were closed with q slab of marble or
tile. The more wealthy were laid in sar-
cophagi. The ceiling is fiat, sometimes
slightly arched. Space was economical so
as to leave room usually only for a single
person, the average width OF the passages
being 1-2 to 3 feet. This economy may
be traced TO the poverty Of the early
Christians, and also to their strong sense
of community in life and in death. The
little oratOreS with affairs and episcopal
choirs cut in the tufa are probably of later
construction, and could accommodate only
a few persons at time. They were suited
for funeral services and private devotion,
but not for public worship.-Professor

Dress as a Recreation.

Of course it may be urged that men have
nobler occupations which consume their time,
that their minds are not so narrow as to be
agitated by the shape of a collar, but this is
perhaps only an argument in favor Of the
higher education of women. If their minds
were as elegantly and suitably furnished as
those of their brothers, would they not have
something more interesting to devote them
selves to?
Dress is a kind of recreation, like poetry or
music, not the absorbing interest of a life
time, although one might suspect quite the
reverse. Too profound attention to it is de-
bilitating to the mortal Cher; like some poi
