Some crank packed transparency
in the rear of the Democratic pro-
cession last evening upon which the
words Uncle Sam is dead. No more
pensions to soldiers" or words to
that effect were emblazoned. No
man of common sense supposes that
Democrats got up the transparency
or countenances the sentiment ex-
pressed. Had it been seen by those
in the procession or by the officers in
charge of it the thing would have
been thrown to the ground.

MEMPHIS, Nov. 8.-The demon
stration tonight celebrating the elec-
tiOn of Cleveland and Hendricks was
the grandest ever seen in this city.
A torchlight procession with trans
parencies marched through the prin-
cipal streets Of the city and the popu-
latiOn of Memphis seemed to turn
out en- na0sse. Nearly every business
house in the city was illuminated.
A mass meeting was afterwards
held On the bluff, the audience being
fully 10000.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 8.--This
has been q gala day, and no such
demonstration was ever seen in
Louisville or the South. The city
has been wildly enthusiastic, and
10000 Kentuckians and Indianatans
are in uniform carrying brooms and
roosters paradiDg the streets this
afternoon preceded by bands
and artillery. The whole city
turned out and 100000 people wit
messed the procession and rejoiced
over the triumph of the Democracy.
Tonight the procession is being re-
peated with the addition of fireworks
and speeches. The Courier-Journal
building il the point ,c Of concsntra; sH r.
men, women and children have gone
mad with joy. Among the speakers
were Governor J. Proctor 1nott,
Hon. Henry Watterson and Hon.

of tie local Democrats, and during
the evening parade by the young

There was liberal display
of pyrotechnics and some wild
scenes of enthusiasm. The buildings
occupied by the Iroquois and Cook
county Democratic clubs were dec
Grated with bunting and covered
with flags, and at these points along
the line of march great crowds were
collected to view the line as 1t passed.

Merchant Trdreier

When a woman has a new pair of shoes
sent home she performs altogether different
from a man. She never shoves her toes into
them and yanks and hauls until she is red In
the face and out Of breath, and then goes
stamping and kicking around, but pulls them
on part way carefully, witches them of
again TO take last look aud see If she has
got the right one, pulls them on again, looks
at them dreamingly, says they are just right,
then takes another look, stops suddenly TO
smooth out q wrinkle, twists around and
surveys them sideways, exclsims, "Mercy,
how loose they are" looks at them again
square In front, works her feet around so
they won't hurt her quite so much, takes
them of, looks at the heel, the toe, the bot
tom and the inside, puts them on again,
walks up and down the room once or twice,
remarks 10 her better half that she won't
have them at any price, tilts down the mir
ror so she can see how they look, turns In
every possible direction and nearly dislocstes
her neck trying to see how they look from
that way, backs of, steps up again, takes
thirty or forty farewell looks, says they make
her feet look awful big and will never do in
the world, puts them off and on two or three
times more, asks her husband what he thinks
about 1t, and pays no attention to what he
says, goes through 1t all again, and finally
says she will take them. It Is very simple
matter, indeed.

NATIONAL NOMENCLATURE.
The Origin of TITLES Applied TO Some Ceun'
tries of Europe.

These are derived principally from some
particular cause or object. For instance,
Ireland-wblch Julius Cesar first called Hi
bernia-is q modification OF Erin, or the
country of the west.
Scotland, from Scotia, tribe which origi-
nally came from Ireland. 1t was anciently
called Caledonia, which means a mountain
Gus couutry--forests and lands.
Portugal, the ancient Lusitania, was so
named from q town on the liver Douro,
called Gale, opposite to which the inhsbi-
tants built the city Of Porto.
Spain, the ancient Iberia, from the river
Iberus, or Hspania, from the PhGnician
spdniga, which signifies abousding with rab-
bits, which animals are very numerous In
that country, hence the name Of Spain.
France, from the Franks, q people Of Ger
many, who conquered that country. Its an
cient name was Celia, Gaul, or Gallia-
Bracchata, the latter s.gnifylng striped
breeches, which were worn by the natives.
Switzerland, the ancient Helvetia, was so
named by the Austrians, who called the in
habitants OF the mountainous countries
Schweitzers.
Italy received Its present name from re-
nowned Prince called Italus. 1t was called
Hesperia from Its western locality.
Holland, the ancient Batavi, war-like
people, was so named from the German
word, "hohl," the English of which Is hol-
low, Implying a very low country. The in
habitants are called Dutch, from the Gsrnzu
"deutsch" or "teutsch."
Sweden and Norway were anciently called
Scandinavia, which the modern antiquarians
think means a country the woods Of which
have been burned or destroyed. The appel
lation Sweden Is derived from Sictuna, or
Snlthesd. The native term, Norway, or the
northern way, explains itself.
Prussia, from Peuzzi, a Sclavonic race |;
but some writers suppose 1t took its name
from Russia and the Sclsvonic sy liable, "po,"
which means adjacent or near.
Denmark means the marches, territories or
boundaries OF the Danes.
Russia is the ancient Sarmatia, which has
subsequently been named Muscovy. 1t de-.
rived It's present name from Russi, Scla-
vonic tribe who founded the Russian monar-
chy. The original savage inhabitants used
10 paint their bodies In order to appear more
terrible in battle. They generally lived In
the mountains and their chariots were their
only habitatlons.
Turkey took It's name from the Turks, or
Turcomans, which signifies wanderers, and
originally belonged to the Scythians or Tar
tars. II Is sometimes called the Ottoman
empire, from Ottoman, one Of the principal
leaders.

Tar Smoke for DiphtIeria.

Ruth Lockwood, the nine-year-old child
Of Thomas Lockwood, a compostor In the
Times effice, became violently Ill with diph.
iberia on Tuesday night. She was so weak
that II was deemed dangerous to try trachso-
tony, or cutting open the winepipe. On
Thursday, DR.. Nichols, Of 1T West WASH
ington Place, who was attending her, re.
ceived a copy Of the Paris Figaro, which
contained q report made to the French
Academy Of Medicine by DIR. Dslthil. DIR.
Delthl said that the vapors Of liquid tar and
turpentlne would dissolve the flo rinous exu.
datlons which choke up the throat In Group
and diphthsrla. .......'. ....
DIR. Delthil's process was described. He
pours equal parts Of turpentine and liquid
tar into pan or cup and sets Ere to the
mixture. A dense resinous smoke arises,
which obscures the air of the room. "The
patient" Dr. Delthil says, "imnediatsly
seems TO experience relief, the choking and
rattle stop, the patient falls into slumber,
and inhales the smoke with pleasure. The
hbrinous membrane soon becomes detached,
and the patient coughs up microbicidss.
These, when caught In glass, may be seen
to dissolve In the smoke. In the course Of
three days afterward the patient entirely
RECEIVERS" fEE
DIR. Nichols tried this treatment yesterday
with little Ruth Lockwood. She was lying
gasping for breath when he visited her.
First pouring about two tablespoonfuls of
liquifed tar on an iron pan, he poured ~
much turpentine over IL and set It on fire.
The rich resinous smoke which rose to the
ceiling was by no means unpleasant. As IL
filled the room the childs breathing became
natural, and a. the smoke grew dense she
fell asleep.-Waiia Walia Exchange.
