HOLIDAY RECREATION.

The vacation season has its failures as well
as its successes. The Spectator strives to ex-
plain why pleasure seekers who strive hard to
enjoy their summer holiday sometimes exhaust
themselves in futile attempts to find genuine
enjoyment 1t lays stress upon the mistake OF
confounding rest with recreation, since while it
forms considerable part of well-spent holt
day. IL is not the whole of 1t. Nothing" it
remarks, "really tends so much to the resting
u of the energies which have been ovor-used
" as the bringing into play of those which have
"been inactive or suppressed" 1t maintains
that in order to have recreation one must not
only discontinue his usual routine but also find
something to do which will awaken new
sense of power distinct from that which oTdi-
nary vocation awakens. Precisely as a math-
ematician employed his holiday in writing
u Alice In Wonderland" one must refresh
himself during the vacation season by cxerting
dormant faculties or dsused powers. which
receive no stimulus in life's ordinary routine.
The obvious criticism upon this special
regimen for recreation il that il can only be
recommended for men Of marked intellectual
force. The effect of mental elasticity and
freshness is produced by unaccustomed intel
lectual exercise, very much as one set OF
muscles is relieved by the action of another.
But the world is largely made up Of busy, over
strained, practical people, who have no favorite
studies to revive, no scientific tastes to crafty,
no intellectual pleasures to pursue. 1t would
be as absurd for them to undertake any un-
wonted literary tasks in quest of recreation as
il would be for faded clergymen, wearied out
by a long season Of parish activity, to apply
themselves to laborious farm work in the hope
OF getting thoroughly rested. Professor
Tyndall may find both rest and recreation in
dropping his scientific studies for n season
and writing "a review on n theological work,
but sustained intellectual effort after an active
year of business or professional labor will
ordinarily exhaust both the tired body and the
weary brain. Even il the mind could be re-
freshed by the revival of former studies or the
awakening Of new interests, recreation would

REAL AND BAPTISMAL NAMES.
Distinction Which the Law Does Not
RecOgniZe in Amy Manner.

New York Connie rcal Advertiser,
The discussion with respect to General Grants
real name is bringing to the surface an amount
Of ignorance and misconception which is inter
estlng, as popular errors of tenacious hold
always are. There are those who contend that
General Grants name was Hiram Ulysses; there
are those who insist that it was Ulysses Hiram
and there is deal of chatter on the subject,
just there was while ago concerning the
question whether the present President of the
United States is named Grover Cleveland or
Stephen Grover Cleveland. In these discussions
we are bOmbarded with evidence as to the bap-
tismal name, and all that. In the case of Gen
Grant, hotel register has been published in fac
simile to show that in boyhood he signed himself
gu H. Grant
The whole thing rests upon a misconception
The laws of this country know nothing whatever
of baptism or baptismal names. Baptism has
no more legal effect than circumcision con-
firmaton or communion, or any other ordinance
of ecclesiastical administration. If baptism had
aught to do with mans legal name, a ry
large part of the population of this col Try
would be wholly nameless The children of the
Baptists, for example, who are not baptized in
infancy, would have no names until, in adult
lfe they submit themselves to that ordinance.
The QuakerS do not baptlZe at all, and many
others are like minded.
Yet all these persons have names. A mans
name is that by which he calls himself and is
called When Bret Harte habitually wrote him
self Francis Bret Harte that was his name, but
WHEN ne uIopueu Tue fanclS III ceased 10 De a
part of his name. The same thing happened
with Bayard Taylor and Brander Matthews, and
certain persons have thought it witty to insist
that Mr.. Whitelaw Reds name is really Jacob
Whitelw Reid, their contention resting upon the
assertion-true or false-that he was
baptized by that The law
recognizes no such fact. Mr. Reid
and the other gentlemen mentioned may have
been baptized with any conceivable number Of
names, but in law their names are now Whitelaw
Reid, Brandnr Matthews, Bayard Taylor, Grover
Cleveland, etc, because they habitually call
themselves and are called by those names. So
in General Grants case, his name was Ulysses
Simpson Grant, whether he was baptized by that
name or any other name. The whole miscon-
ception grows out of the two errors: first, that
baptism has legal character, and second that it
requires legislative act to make change in a
mans name. Both are errors of a tenacious
kind

New Orleans Times Democrat.
A few days ago a large number of railway
passenger agents were congregated at Jackson.
vile, Fla, endeavOrlng to secure business for
their respective roads, as the travel of Northern
tourists happened to be very large that winter
While the passenger agents were infesting the
hotels and making things lively, and having
jolly time among themselves the editor of one
of the Jacksonville papers came out in an edi
torial, and called the passenger agents body
snatchers. and declared that they were a nui
sance, and stated in positive terms that they
should be kept away from the depots by the
police The article aroused the ire of the pas
senger men, and they held meeting at hotel
to devise ways and means to be avenged.
Redu Campbell offered motion, which was
adopted, to appoint committee to be called the
retraction committee, who should call on the
editor and compel him to apologize Mr. Camp
bell, so the joke goes, was made chairman of the
committee, and, in company with several others
started i'll search of the Office Of the abusive
paper. Aftor some difficulty the Office was
found and, ascending a couple of flights of
dark rickety stairs, Mr. Campbell and his COM
mittee entered a room and discovered thin
mptive-ooking little man seated at pine
table writing by the light Of dirty tallow can.
gs"Are you the editor and responsible man Of
this paper!' said Campbell, becoming very bold
AS he noted the fact that the editor was very
diminutive man.
Yes sir am the editor and responsible
man"
well, sir did you write this outrageous arti-
cle3" Numbered Campbell as he put on a look of
terrible rage.
Yes wrote that article" calmly replied the
small editor
Then, sir we demand that you apologize and
retract what you have said, instantly said
Campbell
Il never apologize" replied the editor, land
want you to get out Of here III d-n quick style,"
and he pulled out of drawer before him six
shooter as long as cornstalk and covered the
crowd with it it. Colonel Bob Garrett, who was
there to render moral support TO the committee,
saws he reached the bottom OF the stairs first,
with the rest Of the committee galloping close
at his heels.
When the committee reached the hotel the oth-
err passenger agents were anxious TO know what
success they had met with. Mr.. Campbell, after
calming himself. explained that the intention
was laudable, but owing to circumstances, the
execution was faulty. He also remarked that
his friends would have to wait until sheol was
frozen over before he would consent to serve on
a retraction committee again.
Colonel Garrett says the next morning the
editor came out in his paper and ripped the boys
up the back, but no one cared to call his atteR-
ton TO the matter.
