THINGS WERE LIVELY.
A Good Seasons work In and About
Casper.

p. T. Mcnamara of Casper arrived in
town last night on the Cheyenne &
Northern and leaves on the early morning
train far Denver. Mr.. Mcnamara says
Casper has been a pretty lively town all
summer with cattle and sheep shipments,
oil prospecting and mineral development.
There have been l43, 900 head Of cattle
shipped to market from that point during
the season.
Prof. Zahn has had men at work all
summer and has shipped a couple of car
loads Of ore to Chicago. " hat
the result was is not definitely
known. but this fact is Ger.
tain. that ZahD. in the interest of the
Chicago parties whom he represents. has
continued to increase his claims in that
neighborhood. He is operating about
twelve miles from Casper. Ooe very sat
isiactory circumstance, according to Mr..
Mcnamara, is that q irst-class lot Of
practical men are beginning to get inter
ested, and instead of spending a few hun
dred dollars in burrowing about they have
zone to work Systematically with the evil
dent intention of developing instead of
wasting all their enerGy and money in
prospecting.
Mr.. Mcnamara believes that the North
western will be extended beyond Casper
next season. He speaks with some en-
thusiasn about the management Of the
road and the way in which 1t treats the
people. Every possible encouragement is
given to development work in the mining
district. and whenever a shipment is to be
made to test the quality of any ore the
road usually takes the car to Chicago free
OF charge. This circumstance is very
much appreciated by the people, as 1t
does much to stimulate development of
the country.

For some time past al annoying and
systematic theft OF the Cheyenne daily
papers has been made from the letter
boxes and iront yards OF residences. A
watch will be kept and the first offender
detected in stealing papers will be made

petty and the laws make it a penitentiary

GORNAN-S GREAT HCTORY.

Senator Arthur Z. German is receiv-
ing general recognition for his brilliant
work IN the late campaign in Maryland.
10 the fight he had srrayed against him
the Republicans, the Mugwumps, the In
dependent Democrats, who fused with the
Republicans, and the three leading news
papers of Baltimore. The result is briefly
told. The Democratic plurality in 1888
was 6.lS2. At the recent election the
Democratic plurality was 30. In tie
legislature there are l03 Democrats to
IA MuRwumps, Republicans and In
dependent Democrats, thus insuring
the election of two United States senators.
As the New York Sun very pertinently
remarks: This is splendid service to the
party which Mr.. German serves with
equal energy. equal disinterestedness,
and equally brilliant success whether be

BPAZIL AND BER FIRST PRESIDENT.

BPAZIL AND BEE FIRST PRESIDENT.
General da Fonseca'S election as the frs,
President of the United States of Brazil is al
event upon which that grelt nation may be
heartily congratulated. 1t will be accepted by
foreign countries as a proof of the conservative
wisdom of the Brazilian Congress. II so exalted
an honor can be said to be any mans due, GER
tainly il WAS his. In an Incompatible degree
he brought about the reforms through which the
Brazilian people passed from subjects to sover-
eigns. lie was the central figure of the revolu-
ton, and the fact that it was accomplished
with little disorder, and its results were Sc
cured strongly and certainly, is TO be attributed
chiefly to his resolute and Sagacious behavior.
Since that supremacy critical hour the con-
duct of General da Fonseca has been not less
admirable. Indeed, the difficulties OF his posi-
ton were multiplied by the success he achieved
in November, 1889, and in meeting them it is
faint praise TO say that he has displayed states
manship o. a high order. Under his liberal
guidance, the change from monarchical govern
ment. from the rule Of irresponsible authorities
TO the rule Of the people, has been made under
conditions of remarkable internal tranquility.
If his government was in one sense arbitrary il
was carefully formed to express the popular
will. Il was strong to resist treason and 10 hold
violent elements in check, but it undertook no
more than was necessary to insure to the people
the right freely To enact their pleasure. Ii Sc
cured for the Republic the respect and goodwill

There is certainly no way in which n woman
can change her name 80 satisfactorily 10 herself as
by marrying the man Of her choicc-and the salts
faction is doubtless heightened if she knows him
Ia be- also the choice Of some other woman VINO
isn't getting him; but this Is not to tie point.
As the reader probably knows. n womanb name
may also be changed By act Of Legislature, As may
also n man's-indccd, the Legislature is Il mans
only hope. with the exception. of course, of that
plan not entirely unknown Of moving to the Far
West and changing it himself. The list of the
names changed in this State by the present i@giS-
laturc has just been made public, and it affords a
field for harmless speculation.
The reason for some OF the changes can be
easily seen. Thus, n man named Solowcitzchyk
had it changed 70 Solow. The gentleman did well.
The last eight letters of his former name were
simply a railroad wreck Of the worst part of tine
alphabet. No one. We presume. except n dime
museum class cater could pronounce his old name
without serious injury. We congratulate Mr..
Solow. Our only objection to his new name is
the temptation which it offers 10 %pnnstcrs. a per-
nicious brood that should never under any circum-
stances he encouraged. Mr.. R~ozcglawSki. who is
now Mr. Roseman. and Mr.. Wictrzthowsk. now
Mfr. White, are also to he commended for their
rood taste. Mr.. Stcrnlicht, having been natural
lied. came 10 the wise conclusion TO have his name
translated and is now known as Starlight.
One man, Leon Hernandez, did not know when
he had enough, and further burdened himself.
He is now known rs Leon Hernandez dc Figucroa.
This is a good name for a tenor singer, but some

perhaps the gentleman is a tenor singer
llirscl Myers is now Mycr llirsch. Here is a hint
for Henry George. But why did Mr.. Clements
change his name 20 Scott? Clements is n good
name. And we are sorry 10 STE that William
IIoIley Moses has changed his last name TO Morris.
Morris is a good name, Of course, but when il
comes 70 antiquity the Morriscs cannot compare

see that Richard Patch is now Richard WILDER
force. Wherefore is n good name, with splendid
traditions clustering around it, but is not Patch
also an honorable name? To be sure the Brodics
are outiumping the Patches now, but a man ought
not to " 60 back on" his name simply because
the family has fallen Of n little athlctically. And
why should Andrew Paul Shades change his name

can see 10 particular difference in the names.
