Our Language.

The task of preparing new diction-
ary of the English language is, perhaps,
about as grave, intricate and laborlous
as man could undertake. Of all
tongues, ours is the most inexact and
scattering, to begin with. 1t was
largely borrowed in the first instance
from foreign sources; and we have
been adding to it from the vocabularies
of other nations for centuries. More
than this, we alone Of all the people on
the earth have common habit OF coin
ing new words and giving old words
new meanings to suit our whlms or to
emphasize a peculiar fact or object.
BY such means, our lexicon is made to
undergo continual change, and to be,
rs it were, in an unceasing hide-and
seek with itself. The words and ex-
pressions in general use two hundred
years ago are many Of them absurdities
and vulgarities now; even the prevail
ing English sneech of the last century
is not at all that of to-day; and II
would not be too much to say, proba-
bly,, that every person who lives forty
years must find it necessary to alter his
English as she is spoken" in very
considerable degree from the style in
which it was taught to him at the start,
if he would make sure Of being under
stood and OF escaping correction and
derision.

NEW YORK, July 27.-Dlany dissatis.
fed Republicans who say they would
have voted for an Independent candi.
date are greatly dissatisfied that no one
was nominated at the late independent
Conference. They intend, therefore, to
cast their votes for Blaine, declaring
that there is no reason why Republi.
can should assist in eleoting tho Demo-
cratic nominees.
This is the feeling OF . number Of Re-
publicans who have been undecided,
but who have now made up their minds
to 60 for Blaine and Logan. They are
stoutly opposed to aiding TO break up
the noble old party at the dictation OF a
band OF malcontents, especially az they
know that this is just what the Demo-
Gratis would like aSove anything. A
prominent politician said today:
Blaine was not my man but I'd be a
fool TO vote for a Democrat, with the
Democratic party behind him, for no
better causes than this.
Several Republicans, who have been
travelling in various parts of the country
lately, say that the disatfeclion, as
represented by the independents, does
not begin to equal the disatfection OF
the Democrats toward Cleveland. They
estimate that the disaffected Democrats
are to the disafrected Republicans as two
to one.
John Kelly, now NJ Saratoga, refuses
TO express hi-nsef on the political situ-
alton, but it is generally believed by
his friends and associates that be is no
more reconciled to Cleveland than on
the day OF his nomination. 1t is asser.
ted that the often repeated remark, that
New York State can be carried for thu
Democracy without Tammany, and
that Kelly has lost control of that
body, has angered Kelly, who is resol-
we'd to show how far this is from the
truth.
All Of Kelly's self.love, ambition, and
political power are staked Oh this cam
paign. IT Cleveland should be elected
Kelly would be a nonentity, and he il
well aware Of the fact. Will he allow
himself to become a nonentity?

PRINCESS ANNE, Md, Julyj28.-Ths
county 81 Somerset and the adjoining
one of Worcester are In Q tumult ofex.
element over the brutal shooting Of
Captain L. Q. @. Davis, o respectable
and wealthy resident OF Pocomoke City,
In the last named county. For the
past two years Mrs. Mary Il. Ross
daughter OF Captain Davis, q beautiful
widow, has been residing with him and
receiving the attentions of Irving j.
Mills, drummer for the Baltimore Arm
Of William G. Bausemer & Co. Mrs.
Ross 10 about thirty years old, aud both
before and since her marriage has been
quite a belle in the lower peninsula.
Her father some time ago, finding
that she continued TO accept the atten.
tions Of young Mills despite his protests,
| forbade the latter to come to his house.
The lovers, however, frequently met
clandestinely and yesterday Mrs. Ross,
during the absence of her father, went
out driving with Mills. As they were
returning home and were about to cross
. small bridge In Dublin district, near
Pocomoke City, they we're seen by Cap
tain Davis, who was standing talking
to his niece, Mrs. Marcellus Dickerson,
In the latter's yard, near the bridge.
Captain Davis ran out in the road
and called to Mrs. Ross TO leave the
carriage. Mills objected TO this and
when Mrs. Ross tried to get out he
whipped up the horse. Captain Davis
sprang forward and seized the animal
by the reins. Mrs. Ross then jumped
out, when Mills in a frenzy OF rage
drew pistol and fired. When the
daughter feet touched the ground she
almost fell over her fathers corpse iy.
ing in the road.
Mrs. Ross sprang towards Mills aad
began to wrestle with him for the pos
session OF his weapon, for he evidently
contemplated second shot.
Mrs. Dlckerson went to her aid and
the two finally succeeded in making
Mills desist. Mrs. Ross then fell fainting
on her fathers body. Mills glanced at
the body aud turned away muttering,
without Offering any explanation. He
left the scene and went to the residence
OF his uncle and requested to be sent to
Princess Anne Jail. Unable to get a
conveyance and fearing that the com
murity would take the law in it'd own
hands he started to walk to Jail. He
proceeded this way 3 miles and then
got a friend to take him to his destina.
| oioh' w heu chileu upou III Jdll IO-uay
he appeared perfectly cool and refused
TO make any statement.
Mrs. Ross, in speaking of the affair
today, denounced Mills in bitter terms
and cried and sobbed piteousy. Sine
states positively that she saw no
attempt at violence on her fathers part
and that he never carried pistol in his
life. Mills bullet passed directly
through Captain Davis heart. The son
of Captain Davis married sister OF
his fathers murderer about eight
| months ago.

Here is singular instance of the
working OF that subtle, fine sixth sense,
which IL apt to affect women more than
men, and which is so mysterious in
character that We often incline to deny
it's existence at all. A lady sat sewing
quietly in her sittingroom, and IN an
inner cham Der the urse had Just put
| the baby to sleep and laid her in her
| basinette. AS the nurse cams out OF
the cham Der she said to her mistress /:
90 The little thing is asleep for three
hours, ma am, I'll warrant" The nurse
| W, mt down stairs, and for about a min
ute the mother sewei on. Suddenly a
desire seized her to go and take the
| sleeping child from its crib What
nonsense" she said to herself. ''Bany is
sound asleep. Nurse just put her down
shall not GO" Instantly, however,
some power, stronger even than the last,
urged the mother ID go 20 her baby;
and, after a moment, sac rose, half vex.
cd with herself, and went TO her cham
Der. The baby was asleep in her little
bed, safely tucked in with soft white
and pink blankets. Que small hand was
thrown above the little brown head. 1t
slightly curved, and the palm as rosy
as the depths OF "A lovely she'll. "My ba-
byr' whi~p ,red the mother, adoring
the little sleeper AS mothers will. my
own little bsby!" She bent over sud
deuiy thirt nins, impelled BY
that mysterious force which was con.
trolni. her. and, for no apparent rea-
son, took ths sleeping baby in her arms
and went swiftly from the room. She
had scarcely crossed the threshold when
a startling sound caused her to look
back. Through n sitting cloud of clay
dust she saw that the ceiling above the
baby's cradle had fallen, burying the
heaps of rosy blankets, and lying heavi-
est of all upon the spot where, but for
her mystic warning, her little child
would have been lying.
