THE PRONUNCIATION OF "U.p

Ninety-nine out of every hundred NOrtherners
will say institOOt instead Of institute-dOoty for
duty, a perfect rhythm of the word beauty. They
call new and news, moo and nOos-and on
through the dozens and hundreds Of similar words.
Not dictionary in the English language author
izes this In student and stupid the Gu" has the
same sound rs cupid, and should not be pronounced
stoodent and stoopid, as many teachers are i'm
the habit OF sounding them.
If il isa vugarism to call door a doah-as we
all admit-isn't il as much of a vulgarsm to call
a newspaper a nOOspaper? One vulgarism is
Northern and the othern Southern; that's the
only difference. When the London Pfnch wishes
to burlesque the pronunciation of servants, it
makes them call the Duke the Dook the tutor the
tooter, and a tube a toob. You never find the
best Northern speakers, such as Wendell Phillips,
George w. Curtiss Emerson, Holmes, and men OF
that class say moo for new, Ioosday for Tuesday,
avenOo for avenue, or calling dupe doop. 1t Is
a fault that SOutherner never falls into. He has
slips of another kind, bnt he doesn't slip on the
long u As many OF our teachers have never
had their attention called to this, / hope they
will excuse this notice.

ON THE SIDEWALK.

Here the publican walks with the sinner proud
And priest in his gloomy cow,
And Dives walks in the motley crowd
With Lazarus, cheek by jowl,
And the daughter OF toll with her fresh young heart,
As pure as her spotless fame,
Keeps step with the woman who makes her mart
In the haunts OF sin and shame.

A HOme-ThruSt.

William Cullen Bryant, when chal-
lenged once to fight duel, contrived to
fasten the charge of cowardice on 81 the
other fellow very neatly, and with little
trouble. His reply having been incor-
rectly reported i'll the notices of his
death, his son-in-law, Parke Goodwin,
publishes the facts as follows:
Mr.. Bryant was challenged by DR..
Holland now deceased, on account of
some offensive words that had appeared
i'll the Evening Post; but remembering
that DR.. Holland had been previously
challenged by William Legget, without
taking any notice of the challenge, he
replied TO this effect:
Ny DEAR SIR / am not familiar with the
code of the duelist. but believe that, accord
ing to its provisions no one has a right to send
a challenge to fight q duel 40 long as an I'M
answered challenge hangs over his head.
Then the matter was dropped.

Led Captive by a Colonel.

About ten years ago, Pennsylvania
farmer named Jackson migrated to Tex
as, locating near the village of Iberia, in
Maveric county, on the Mexican border.
At that time he had daughter, Anna,
who was chirrupy little creature of 9.
Jackson prospered, and soon erected
fine residence on the Rio Grande, along
which lay his stock farm. A year or SO
ago he gave grand ball in honor of
Miss Jackson's 18th birthday, which
event drew as his guests number of
army officers and few Mexicans of re-
spectability. On the evening of the ball
Col jean Baptiste San Miguel, then
military commander of the Eastern dis
trict of Chihuahua, was present, and his
devotion to his hosts daughter excited
remark. A few weeks later, Col. San
Miguel had the modification of hearing
his suit for Miss Jackson's hand reject
ed. just one month after the
ball. as Miss Jackson was sitting alone
on the vine-trellised porch of her
fathers house, two figures stepped in
from the dust of the garden, and, before
the young woman could give expression
of alarm, she found her head wrapped
round and round in shawl, her feet and
hands pinioned, and her form lifted
upon strong mans shoulder Miss
Jackson very naturally tainted. When
she had recovered, she found herself
strapped to a horse and supported in an
upright position by man who sat in
his saddle facing backward. Another
man, also on horseback, led the animal
with the double burden. Her abduct-
ors kept ON the march until daylight,
when they put up at an inn, where s. e
was kept close prisoner until the Sec
ond evening. The iourneying was con-
tinued in this way until the mountains
which she was told were 400 miles fire. m
her home-had been reached. Col. San
Miguel had joined the kidnappers, and
Miss jackson was kept prisoner in the
mountains for several days. At last es-
Gaping, she was guided by plying IN
dian TO the coast of the Gulf of Mexico,
where one day she signaled and boarded
the brig Lydia, bound for Boston,
Friends took her in hand, when she N
rived in that city, and sent her home,
where she arrived not long ago.

Sensational Scene i'm the Senate.

The Geneva award was under discuss
ion. and Mr.. Thurman held the floor
He was frequently interrupted by Mr.
Blaine. Mr. Thurman said he wanted
To remind the Senator of n bad habit of
his. Il am not betting man" said
Mr.. Thurman, "but if | were | would
give long odds that while YOU are in the
Senate no Senator will ever be able to
make speech without having one from
You injected in its middle, breaking the
line of argument" This raised laugh
Then Blaine badgered Thurman, and
accused him of ignorance of everything
pertaining to navigation. He also insin-
uated that Mr. Thurman was weak III his
law. and SO aggravatingly patronized
and bedeviled Thurman that the old man
was repeatedly seen to puff out his
cheeks with indignation. When Mr.
Blaine had ceased his skilled unpleasant
ness Mr.. Thurman arose. He dropped
his red bandana upon the desk i'll front
of him. He all at once lost his veXed
look. smile of satirical humor began
to play about the old mans mouth. He
shook his shaggy iron-gray hair as he
mumbled, hoarsely, that it was remarka-
dble how much Maine people knew about
navigation. Very few people ever did
know as much. The Maine people ac-
quired this knowledge while they used
to build ships. Since they had ceased
building they knew more than ever. At
this point of his pleasant rejoinder Sen
ator Thurman paused. His high, white
forehead was seen to get first red and
then purple. He turned half about
then he sank back heavily in his chair
A page darted for glass of water. The
old man grasped the glass and poured
half It's contents into his trembling hand
and then applied it to his head. Christy,
the round, curly-hcaded Falstatf of
the Senate retainers, bounded from
his seat near the Vice President
and rolled like sheet into the cloak
room, emerging a second later with a
towel and pitcher of ice-water. He
rapidly began to battle Thurman fore
head. the latter meanwhile growing
fainter. Senators turned anXiously, but
thoughtfully refrained from pressing for
ward. Blaine. with all his animation
gone. silent. subdued, the very picture
of earnest commiseration, stood In the
foreground of the Republican side, look
ing anxiously at his stricken opponent.
Senator Thurman was SO quiet for a mo-
ment that it was thought he was upon the
verge of stroke of paralysis. For one
second the situation was absolutely thrill
ing. A white-lpped spectator in the
gallery broke the silence of the Senate
with a stage whisper of "My God, the
man is dying but in a moment the
panic subsidized. Senator Thurman rose
with difficulty, and, leaning heavily upon
the rotund and powerful Christy, tot
tered into the cloak-room, to the doors
of which there was an instantaneous rush
of Senators. Senator Thurman was laid
upon lounge, and physician called.
The Ohio Senator did not lose his con-
sciousness. He at once gave directions

BITS OF INFORMATION.

The first friction-matches were six
inches long and 8 cents apiece. Consid-
cradle prejudice was raised against their
use by their occasional explosion.
ASTRONOMY was first studied by the
Moors, and was introduced by them into
Europe in 1901. The rapid progress of
molern astronomy dates from the time
of Copernicus. 1t was known to the
Chinese about 100 b. G.
WATCHES were first invented in Nurem-
burg by Peter Halle. They used to be
called Nuremburg eggs, because they
were oval in shape. 1t took many years
to bring them to their present state of
perfection, and to render them the COM
mon convenience of the present day.
THE first American patent for an in
vention was issued to Samuel Hopkins,
of New York, July 30, 1880, and was for
an improved method of making pearl
ash and potash. 1t was written i'll n
plain, round, old-fashioned hand, is
signed by George Washington, and GER
titled 10y ED" Randolph, Attorney
General, rs being conformable to the act
of Congress to promote the useful arts.
and its delivery to the grantee is certified
by Thomas Jefferson, with the seal of
the United States.
ARCHERY was first introduced by the
SaXons in the time of Voltigeur. 1t was
dropped Immediately after the conquest,
but was revived by the Crusaders. The
Normans used the cross-bow until after
the time of Edward H., when the long
bow supplanted it and became the favor
tie national weapon. Bows and arrows
as weapons of war were in use with stone
cannon-balls as late rs 1910. All the
statute, for the encouragement of arch
cry were framed after the invention of
gunpowder and firearms, the object be-
ing to prevent this ancient weapon be-
coming obsolete. Yew-trees were en-
couraged in church-yards for the max
ing of bows in 1912.
