Boston Globe.
Henry Georges supporters, being de-
nounced as ''cranks,n have taken me-
chanio's crank as their badge, and SO
added one more name to American party
nomenclature. Half century ago as
trivial matter gave the name of Loco
foco to the extreme wing of the Demo-
cratic party, when, at u stormy meeting in
Tammany Hall, the lights were extin-
guished so as to break up the assembly,
but the extremists produced friction
matches, then novelty and called loco
focos, and, relighting the hall, carried on
the meeting. 1t ia curious how party
names hre applied and adopted. The
more ridiculous the name given by one
political faction TO another, the moro 1t is
used as rallying cry, and the preuder
its bearers feel of it. A nickname,
ballad, a cant term, fashion,
an apt allusion or story, some slight Incl
dent-the mischief is done, the name is
given to a faction or party, tho news
papers spread it broadcast, and the new
word, or the new meaning of an old
word, is fixed. Thus popular ditty in q
London music hall gave a name to Lord
Beaconsfeld's policy and party, ''the
Jingoes." The Indian word mugwump-
ttlord" or "worthy one"-applied sar-
castically during the lant Presidential
campaign was received as readily by
those to whom 1t was given as, nearly 40
years ago, the free soil Democrats OF
New York, who were opposed to the fur
ther extension of slavery, accepted
tho name of "barn- burners" their
principles being regarded as fully
as revolutionary as those of the
Dutchman who burned his barn in
order to get rid of the rats which infested
it. Like mugwump, both of the old
names of thetWo great parties of England
were borrowed from other languages, the
friends of the court being nicknamed
Tories, after the name of certain class
of Irish robbers, while in revenge they
called their opponents after the Scotch
word for sour milk, ''whigg," probably
considering it expressive of the disposi.
tion of those to whom il was applied.
The student of history will find the origin
of party names one of its most interesting
chapters, and study of the subject will
amply repay him for his trouble.

If there is nothing to he done here we
might ns well clear out and let this
wre.ched banker pay the cost. If you
know anything about him he would
rather see you out of Trieste"
| Sarcany shook his head.
"You will see il cannot last much
longer. We havecome to the end now"
added Zirone.
/ He rose and stamped on the ground
with his foot as if it were stepmother
i unwilling to help him. At the instant
he did so he caught sight of n pigeon
feebly fiutteling down just outside the
enclosure The pigeons tired wings
could hardly move us slowly it sank to
the ground.
/ Zirone, without asking himself to
which of the IN species of pigeons now
known to ornithological nomenclature
the bird belonged, saw only one thing
/ that the species it belonged to was edi-
/ BILE
! The bird was evidently exhausted. 1t
had tried to settle on the cornice of the
cathedral. Not being able to reach it, it
had dropped on to the roof of the small
niche which gave shelter to the statue of
st. Just but its feeble feet could not
support it there, snd it had slipped on to
the capital of n ruined column.
Sarcany, silent and still, hardly fol-
lowed the pigeon in its flight, but III
rome never lost sight of it, The bird
came from the north. A long journey
had reduced it to this state of exhaus-
ton. Evidently it was bound for some
more distant spot for it Immediately
started to fly again, and the trajectory
curve it traced in the air compelled it to
make fresh halt on one of the lower
branches of the trees in the old ceme-
terry.
Zirone resolved to catch it, and quiet
ly ran off to the tree. He soon
reached the gnarled trunk, climbed up
it to the fork, and there waited notion
less and mute like dog pointing at the
game perched above his head
The pigeon did not see him and made
another start but its strength again
failed it, and few paces from the tree
it fell into the grass.
To jump to the ground, stretch out
his hands and sieze the bird was the
work of an instant for the Sicilian. And
quite naturally he was about to wiring
its neck, when he stopped, gave shout
Of surprise and ran back to Sarcany.
"A carrier pigeon" he aaid
well, it is carrier that has done its
carrying, replied Sarcany.
perhaps So" said Zirone, "and all
the worse for those who are waiting for
the message"
"a messager' exclaimed Sarcany,
"Wait, Zirone wait Give him re.
prieve!"
And he stopped his companion, who
had again caught hold of the neck
Then he took the tiny packet opened it
and drew forth-a CRY yptogram.
The message contained only eighteen
words, arranged in three vertical col

THE NEW FAIR GROUNDS.
The Argument of One Of the Managers in
Favor of the Proposed Location.

The announcement of the State Board of Agri-
culture that the fair grounds would probably be
moved before another year has aroused much
opposition to the proposed location, on the rail
roads In answer to the argument put forth by
those who oppose the move, member of the
State Board said to reporters II
am surprised that such an idea
in reference to new fair grounds
as that given by ]. S. Berryhil in an interview
in the Journal recently should be entertained
by any liberal minded citizen. There is but
one line of streetcars reaching the present
grounds, and it is estimated that 40 per cent. of
the visitors, from necessity, walk the entire dis
lance in attending the fair. One would infer
from Mr.. Berryhills statement that the fair was
run entirely in the interest of Indianapolis, and
the citizens do not want any better transporta-
ton for visitors. There advantages here, If
utilized. to make the fair the leading one in the
United States, but it cannot be ac-
complished with such limited territory
as at present and no steam transpor-
we boast Of our central location, with fifteen
railroads. With new grounds or near the
Belt railway, visitors from the business part of
the city could reach the fair via the Union
Depot in one-half the time required to make the
trip to the present grounds by street railway. In
my opinion the business men would not lose one
dollar of trade with such a change, but in all
probability the attendance would be doubled or
trebled, and trade increased in proportion"
Entries for the State fair are still being made.
Saturday, there were sixty-one entries of farm
products sixty seven in fine art and needle work,
and fifty in the live stock department. incudine
sixteen head of Holstein cattle from New York.
