Origin OF a Long Word.

To one who looks with enough care to
words as he passes them to and fro to
recognize the fossil history" which they
have been cleverly pronounced to be, the
word manufacture, with its other forms,
is interesting as a mark of important
changes. 1t was framed when things
were literally manufactured, 1. g., hand
made, and was then correct description
OF the articles to which it was applied.
But the development of machinery SO far
that there is probably not an article of
use into whose production some processes
by machinery do not enter, has made
the word gross solecism, because its
chronological meaning and its application
fatty contradict each other. When we
speak of the manufacture of common
pins or nails, we really speak of "hand-
made machine made" pins. There are
no more manufactured" articles in this
country; the homespun in 1776 was such,
and SO was the horse-nail which the
blacksmith so laborously hammered out,
but the fabrics and nails of 1876 are
hardly touched with the hand until fin
ished. The word has lost its significance
with its correctness, and retains only its
cumbrousness 1t should be amended
and corrected by dropping the first half,
leaving fracture" to denote things made
or the making of things; 'factor" could
then stand for the doer or maker, being
relieved from its present use as denoting
a commercial agent, in which latter use
1T is not necessary, there being good sub
stitutes

Female Clerks Mt Washington.

The government kindly allows its
clerical employees here one months leave
OF absence with pay during the year, but
as there are few, especially of the lady
clerks, but lose part Of this in driblets,
through sickness or family cares, during
the other eleven months. There are not
many who are gone the full thirty days
In the summer. Some are even too poor
to go at all-those who have dependent
families around them here and must
needs keep up home whether they go
or stay. These take their vacations for
family sewing. The women who go
away on vacations go quite regularly to
their old houses at the North, the East or
the West. They are good women, almost
invariably, with warm home attachments,
and they seek the old roof-tree for the
annual blessing of the white-haired
father and mother or to tighten the OF

He Has Given Up That Trick.

"You see me load this musket with
powder and ball, " said Spanish iuggler
to an audience at Summit, Plumas
County, Cal, last Sunday night. He
then put the musket in the hands of Pat
Burns, of Reno, who works ON Cunning
hams ranch, in that neighborhood.
"Now," said the juggler, extending his
right arm, "when L count three, fire at
my hand, and 1 will catch the bullet"
Pat fired at the word, and with such
quickness and good aim that the ball
passed through the Spaniard's wrist.
The performer ran bowling through the
audience and out of the hall. This ended
the performance. When L. V. Julien
came by there yesterday the Spaniard's
wound was doing well, but he said, 81

Life in SutrO Tunnel.

1t must be fun to be a miner in the
Sutro Tunnel. The rats and the bats
have it all their own way. The miner
who brings his lunch basket is not at all
sure that he will eat its contents. II he
leave it for few minutes the rats eat
lunch and basket and all. Nor is his
chance for dinner much better if instead
of the basket he takes the ordinary tin
kettle. A party of rats will steal ket-
tie before its owners eyes and roll it
away down into hole where no man can
follow them. Then they rip off the lid
and devour the contents at their leisure.
There are millions of those rats, and
many of them are larger than kittens
and much more muscular and rapacious.
The bats bother both the miners and the
mules. When one big bat flies against
miners face and another bat equally as
big flies in the face of that miners mule
there is complication of troubles. The
man cannot see which way the mule is
going to kick and the mule, which cannot
see either but goes it blind, kicks at
random and is apt to hit the man where
the bat hit him. The bats are as large,
as numerous and as powerful as the rats.
For q man to have his dinner stolen by
rats, then to be hit by a bat and kicked
by mule is n combination of infelicities
calculated to make him wish himself ut
work in almost any other field Of labor.

Our KSaby.


Two little shoes,
Out at the toes,
Trotting about
Wherever mother goes:
Soiled gingham dress,
Put on just now
They do get 80 dirty,
No one knows how;
Little black face,
Black each wee hand
Been making mud pies,
And playing In sand.
Dear, precious head,
Touseled and rough:
Bright, laughing eyes,
Can't see enough
This IL our baby
All day.
Two little feet,
Rosy and bare;
Two chubby hands,
Folded in prayer;
Tired little head,
Dark-ringed with hair;
Soft baby face,
Dimp,ed and fair;
Pansy blue eyes,
Heavy with sleep;
Silvry sweet voice,
Lisping Father, us keep;r
This is our baby
At night.

by PAUL NJ. RUSSELL.

In days of old, as we are told,
Beside the Stygian tide
Old Charon dwelt, with whom all dealt
Who sought the other side.
And for his task, he each would ask
A obole in return.
And every gent who lacked cent
He left the cent to urn.
And motley crowds, in funeral shrouds,
Awaited on the shore;
And there would stay, who could not pay
A hundred years or more.
Among the throng that came along,
New England sent man
Twas Eli Brown, of Boston town,
Who had o'erstepped lifes span.
Hs lacked the tan 10 LET him in
To the Elysian grove;
An oath he swore that he no more
BY Styx's tide would rove.
He picked up sticks and gan to fix
A raft on which TO float;
An Irishman who's near at hand
He hired to build the boat
Says Pat, "Be COB, a payin' job
'Twould be for you and me
With fine desate that lad TO chate,
And row there over free"
Then Eli said, "'Twas in my head
That very thing TO do.
Now, launch her in, and We'll begin
To run our vessel, too.
"By darn said he, 4" Just wait and see
How we will run this biz.
Pat, holler loud and get crowd,
Get every soul there If"
Pat hollered " loud and got crowd
Upon the new-made boat,
Then Eli said g For every head
I'll take a ten-cent note"
When Charon saw the nat'ral law
Transgressed by Eli Brown,
He scratched his head and sadly said,
My price of fare goes down."
They travelled DER from shore to shore
These rival boats-all day,
Brown brought a load each time he rowed
Because he asked no pay.
When not one more was on the shore
The crew their oars laid down.
Then Charon spoke and silence broke
Unto cute Eli Brown:
"what god art thou who guid'st that prov
What god, by Jove sent DOWN."
Then Eli Brown, with tempest frown,
BY Jove, I'm Eli Brown"
They row the Styx; the price they fix
An obole for each way.
Pat g at the oars, while Charon shores,
And Brown takes in the pay.

The speaker waited patiently for the

being not more than dozen present
at 8 O'Clock. Notwithstanding this
fact the speaker commenced his re-
marks and persons commenced to drop
in and out, and when he had finished
there were eighteen present. His re-
marks were no answer but = mass OF
incongruities woven together, in such
a manner that it is highly improbable
that one half of those present could
grasp them. He upheld the issuing OF
greenbacks, and charged all the fail
