UTAH'S STAR'LL BE THERE.
The Maiden State Will Find a Symbol
on Old Glory Next Fourth of July.
Another Mar added to the flag of tbe
nation! With alacrity the maiden
State steps into line and answers to tbe
call of number 45. Tbe change la tbe
national flag made necessary by the
addition of Itah will not be accomplish
ed until July 4 next year. After that
date every (Jovernmeut flag will have
forty-five spangles on Its blue Beld.
Already It has been determined just
where in the fleld the new star is to be
placed. There are six parallel rows of
etara In the regulation flag, and Utah
will take her position at the right-band
end of the fourth row.
As has been said. Utah will occupy
the space at the right-band end of the
fourth line from the top. Room is not
needed for many more, inasmuch as
the only territories remaining availa
ble for future States are Xew Mexico,
Oklahoma and Arizona. In this ac
count, however, no thought is taken of
tbe great reservation known as Indian
territory, from which tbe slice named
Oklahoma was cut out, nor of Uncle
Barn's vast Arctic province of Alaska.
Without a doubt there will be a fur
ther change in tbe arrangement of stars
some day.
A new star Is always added to the flag
on the 4th day of July following the
date of the State's admission. Tbe act
of Congress admitting Utah provides
that tbe President shall Issue a procla
mation on the subject It Is by no
means necessary, however, that the
chief executive shall proclaim tbe birth
of a new State in order that the latter
may be recognized as each In law. Con
gress has the power to admit a State
of them being especially designated for
the use of blue Jackets on shore, when
they are serving as troops for the time
being. Just at present a complete
change is being made in the flags of tbe
army. New designs for them are be
ing executed and some of these have
not been finished yet. The patterns art
being prepared by draughtsmen In tha
War Department, under the supervis
ion of Secretary ijtmouL One novelty
la that in future each cavalry regiment
will have one national flag. Hitherto
that arm of the service, strangely
enough, has not possessed an edition of
the Stars and Stripes.
The War Department has already ad
vertised for bids to furnish an entire
outfit of flags on the new patterns for
tbe army. They will cost quite a big
sum of money. For Instance, a regi
mental flag of silk cannot be bought
for less than S1C0. This Is much more
expensive than the regulation Stars
and Stripes, for the national ensign In
silk comes at about $50 for tbe large
size required. The flags used In the
army are of silk and of bunting; the
former are employed in parades and In
battle there Is nothing too good for
real fighting while tbe bunting flags
are for drills. .;
FIRST PERSON PLURAL. .
Kdltnr Who rears the Tlmu-Houored
"We" May He Overrated.
Some 'kind-hearted editor In New
England 1ms fm-ulahed a new example
of the misuse of the prerogative of exit
tors and kings. A btdy correspondent
wrote him, rccoimncutltng raw pota
toes for asthma. She said she had tried
them, eating one every evening just
before she went to bed, and. In abort,
the effect was all that tbe most exact
ing before-aud-after ! photographer
could require. So she recommended
them to all the similarly afflicted read
ers of the New Kugland publication
aforesaid, and asked the editor If be
would not be good enough to try the
remedy himself, so that he could speak
with authority.
This placwl the editor In a rather un
pleasant predicament He, however,
gracefully avoided the difflculty by re
plying editorially to this effect:
'We have great confidence In this
kind lady In regard to her own case and
others cited, but our stomach la a rath
er delicate one, ami our digestion even
of cooked Htatoes none of the best."
It Is such curiosities of editorial Ens 1
Hsu as this that threuteiit the ruin of
the first person plural. Already cer
tain of our contemporaries which have
a flue taste for humor (notably Life and
the Brooklyn Kagle) have started the
fashion. We suspect that they have
done so In order that they may have
many jukes at the expense of those
newspaper which still say "'
til possible occasions. The Washington
Post will not be long In following their
lead. It refers often in Its brisk, crisp
paragraphs to such well-kuown phrases
aa "We have a new Methodist mluister
In our midst," ami It will doubtless ball
with glee the editorial utterance quot
ed above.
If the first person plural Is to stay,
something must be done to convince
editors at large that while tbelr mental
faculties lelong in a sense to their reat'
em, and while on questions of public
policy what "we" think and what "our"
policy Is, and how a certain proposal
strikes "us." makes good reading, the
first person plural does not extend to
the editor's personality, and therefore
that references to the editorial stomach
should be strictly in the singular. Here
Is a subject for the schools of "Journal
ism." Syracuse Post.
STREET CAR AMBULANCES.
Lately Adopted by the French Health
and Military Services.
On tbe rails which run in tbe boule
vards of the "across the Seine" part of
Paris there was a trial recently of an
ambulance which Is adapted to the
street car Hues. It was designed prim
arily for use in time of war, and can
take the rails of a steam road as readily
as those of the street roads. The ca
may be attached to a train, and the con
ductor, stationed on tbe rear platform

Tbe Firm Survived. .
I beard a clerk once in a large drap
er's shop, who was smart and quick
and a splendid manager, but he got a
swelled bead, and put on consequential
airs. Once he took occasion to say to
his associates that the concern couldn't
get along successfully without him.
Bo tbe old gentleman who was tha
senior partner called him Into the of

without reference to the President at
all. Wyoming and Idaho were admit
ted without proclamation from the
White House. On the other hand, Pres
ident Harrison issued proclamations
with regard to the admission of the two
Dakotas, Montana and Washington In
November, 1880.
It Is rather an odd fact by the way,
that Oklahoma has not yet earned rec
ognition in school books generally aa
a territory of tbe United States.
Anybody is st liberty to make United
States flags. Thus it comes about that
all sorts of patterns of tbe national en
sign are on the market and in use. But
If any one desires to have the colors as
they ought to be reference must be
made to the standard adopted by the
army and navy. This standard, alter
ed from time to time by tbe addition of
fresh stars, Is preserved and will con
tinue to be kept by the Secretaries of
War and the Navy. In the War De
partment at Washington, close by Sec
retary Lamont's office, is displayed In a

country. To exhibit It better it Is il

This Is the original; all others must be
tin Itatlnns or else they are not correct
la the military and naval service of
the United States many patterns of
minor flags are employed. For exam
ple, Id the army there are very pretty
"standards," so-called, and "guidons"
for artillery and cavalry. The navy
has tver so man sorts of flags, soma 1
dent and we appreciate your services,
out l near that you have repeatedly
asserted that If you were to die the
business couldn't possibly survive It
and this bas worried me considerably,
for you, like all men, are liable to die
very unexpectedly, and so we have
concluded to experiment while we are
all in health and see If the concern will
survive. So you will please consider
yourself dead for one year, and draw
no salary for that time, and we will

A Lesson Misapp ted.
It seems strange that a child's mind
should be Infallibly attracted to tbe
naughty ratber than to the nice. A
year or so ago I took Ethel and bar-
old to see the play of "Little Lord
Fauntlcroy." I rashly fancied that tbe
example of the little hero' gentleness
and goodness would bare a fine effect
upon my little relatives. Tbe day af
ter the performance I overheard Ethel
and Harold say "Bully for you," and
"Cheese It Cully," with an alarming
ease and frequency. "Where did you
bear such expressions?" I cried, only to
receive the answer, ''Why, at 'Little
Lord Fauntleroy.' Don't yon remem
ber? Dick, the bootblack, talked like
that"
Luminous Mushrooms.
A traveler in Australia found a large
mushroom weighing Ave pounds. He
took it to tbe house where be was stop
ping and hung It up to dry la the sitting-room.
Entering after dark, he
was amazed to see a beautiful soft
light emanating from tbe fungus. It
continued to give out light for many
plghts, gradually decreasing until It
was wholly dry. Many kinds of fungi
have this peculiarity. Humboldt de
scribes some exquisitely beautiful ones
be saw In the mines. The glow In rot

the threads of llgbt-glvlng fungi.

: Tha explanation of Lord Kelvin's as
tiniate that tha "setback" of the earth
in its daily rotation round it axil
amouut to a second per century is re
ported to be that inch retardation it
owing to tha friction caused by tha
tides, tha latter acting a a brake, and
such action ia calculated, according to
this same authority,' to be equal in
weight to soma 400,000 tons applied oa
tha equator. Other causes, ha say, hava
alio to be taken into aooonot, as, for
aiample, the increase in tha alee of tha
aarth, dna to tha falling on it of mete-
orlo dnat, whtoh, if deposited at tha
rata of one foot in 4,000 years, would
produce the observed retardation by it
self. Further, inch a phenomenon a
tha annual growth and melting of snow
and ice at tha poles, by abstracting
water from tha other parts of tha ocean,
Introduces irregularities into tha prob
lem, tha abstraction accelerating tha
earth 'a motion, and tha melting, by re
storing tha water, retarding it. Again,
as opposed to the retarding forces, it is
orged that there la to be taken into ao
count a probable acceleration, dna to tha
gradual sinking of tha earth by cooling,
this, however, being not more, perhaps,
than one aix-thonsaudth part of the re
tardation due to tidal friction. -

eler in Alsace: "On my return from
Belchen I looked upon the beautiful vil

tourist who likes to poke hia nose into
everything I turned by chano into tha
ohurch at Kirchberg. On coming out
took out my watch to regulate it by tbe
olock in the ohurch tower. But there
was no olock to be seen. Hence I went
into the village inn, and there asked the
time. Bnt mine host could not oblig

wbo said:
I would rather see every dollar I
have in (the world burned up for fuel
under tbe boilers of a battleship, than
to see this country take any other stand
than accords with it dignity and self-
respect."
This ia worth preserving. It
breathe the spirt that makes a nation
something more than an aggregation of
individauls variously engaged in the
pursuit of riches.
The Evening Post's report of the
meeting assert that the ntteranoeof
this patriotic sentiment was greeted
with cries or "Ohl Ohi" from differ
ent part of the room. If these alleged
interjections were intended to express
incredulity, they were insulting to the
speaker. II meant to indicate din.
sent, they were highly discreditable
to those American citizens wbo raised
their voices against such a declaration
a that which Mr. Moore bad Just
maoe.
Every great national orisis has dis
covered not tens, or hundreds, but
thousands and tens of thousands of
patriots willing and ready to give their
all to the cause in which their hearts
are enlisted, why should it seem
strange to any member of the New
York chamber of commerce that an
American is preparea to burn every
uouar ne owns under the boiler of a
battleship ratber than laorifloe his
country's honor? Is there anything
extravagant in mat,'
nearer man an tne dollars a man
may have accumulated is life itself:
ana are ine instance so rare in our
history where life itself bas been freely
una joyiuiiy given.' JN. x. Bun.
