# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Swing, David

See also David Swing on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​SWING, DAVID (1830–1894), American clergyman, was born of Alsatian stock in Cincinnati, Ohio, on the 23rd of August 1830. He spent most of his boyhood on a farm and earned his schooling; graduated at Miami University in 1852; studied theology at Lane Seminary; and was principal of the preparatory school at Miami in 1853–1866. He became pastor in 1866 of the Westminster Presbyterian Church (after 1868 the Fourth Church) in Chicago, which was destroyed in the fire of 1871; he then preached in McVicker’s theatre until 1874, when a new building was completed. In April 1874 he was tried before the presbytery of Chicago on charges of heresy preferred by Dr Francis Landey Patton, who argued that Professor Swing preached that men were saved by works, that he held a “modal” Trinity, that he did not believe in plenary inspiration, that he unduly countenanced Unitarianism, &c. The presbytery acquitted Dr Swing, who resigned from the presbytery when he learned that the case was to be appealed to the synod. As an action was taken against the church, of which he had remained pastor, he resigned the pastorate, again leased McVicker’s theatre (and after 1880 leased Central Music Hall, which was built for the purpose), and in 1875 founded the Central Church, to which many of his former parishioners followed him, and in which he ​built up a large Sunday school, and established a kindergarten, industrial schools, and other important charities. He died in Chicago on the 3rd of October 1894. He was an excellent preacher, but no theologian. He published Sermons (1874), including most of his "heretical" utterances, Truths for To-day (2 vols., 1874-1876), Motives of Life (1879), and Club Essays (1881).

See also Swinton on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​SWINTON, an urban district in the Rotherham parliamentary division of the West Riding of Yorkshire, England, 10 ½ m. N.E. of Sheffield, on the Midland, North Eastern and Great Central railways. Pop. (1891), 9705; (1901), 12,217. It is situated at the junction of the Dearne and Dove navigation with the river Don navigation. In the churchyard of St Margaret's church (rebuilt in 1817) two beautiful Norman arches of the old church are preserved. There are collieries, quarries and brickfields in the neighbourhood. There are also flint and glass- bottle works, ironworks (for stoves, grates, fenders and kitchen ranges), and earthenware manufactures. The town was formerly renowned for its Rockingham ware. A free warren was granted to Swinton by Henry II.

# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Tungabhadra

See also Tungabhadra River on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​TUNGABHADRA, a river of southern India, the chief tributary of the Kistna. It is formed by the junction of two streams, the Tunga and the Bhadra, which both rise in Mysore in the Western Ghats. The united river for nearly all its course forms the boundary between Madras and the dominions of the nizam of Hyderabad. On its right bank stood the capital of the ancient Hindu dynasty of Vijayanagar, now a wilderness of ruins. From of old its waters have been utilized for irrigation. Near its confluence with the Kistna it supplies the Kurnool-Cuddapah Canal. A project has been recently under consideration to dam the river higher up, and there construct an artificial lake that would have an area of 160 sq. m., the cost of this scheme being roughly estimated at nearly £6,000,000.
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Tunicle

​TUNICLE (Lat. tunicella), a liturgical vestment of the Christian church, proper to sub deacons. It is practically the same vestment as the dalmatic (q.v.).
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Tunic

See also Tunic on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​TUNIC (O. Eng. tunice, tunical, taken, before the Norman conquest, directly from Lat. tunica, of which the origin is unknown), properly the name given in Latin to the principal undergarment of men and women, answering to the chiton (χιτών) of the Greeks, and covered by the outer garment, the palla (Gr. ἱμάτιον), in the case of women, and by the peculiar Roman garment, the toga, in the case of men. The male tunica differed from the χιτών in usually having short sleeves (see further Costume: § Ancient Greek and Roman). The term, more often in the form “tunicle” (Lat. dim. tunicula), is applied, in ecclesiastical usage, to a vestment worn over the alb by the sub-deacon in the celebration of the Mass. In general current usage it is used of any loose short garment, girt at the waist and reaching from the neck to some distance above the knee. It is thus the name of the fatigue coat of a soldier of the British army. There are numerous uses of “tunic” or “tunica” in anatomy, zoology and botany in the sense of a covering or integument.
# 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Tuning Fork

See also Tuning fork on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
​TUNING FORK, a small bar of cast steel with tolerably defined edges, bent into a fork with two prongs, with a handle of the same metal extending from the bend of the fork and serving as a sound-post to transmit the vibrations to any resonance board or body convenient for reinforcing the sound. The fork is set in vibration by striking one of the prongs against a hard substance, or pressing the prongs together if they are light ones, or if heavy drawing a bow across. The tuning fork was invented by John Shore, royal trumpeter in 1711, sergeant trumpeter at the entry of George I. in 1714, and lutanist to the Chapel Royal in 1715. It is used for determining musical pitch (see Pitch), and also in certain physical experiments (see Sound).
