Chemical Nomenclature.
From the Popular Science Monthly.l

From the Popular Science Monthly.]
Persons who undertake to gain
through chemical literature a knowl-
edge of what chemicals are doing in
and for the world encounter a dis
couraging nomenclature which repels
them by its apparent intr;cacy and
it's pollysyllabic character. Their
opinion OF the Technology of an exact
science is not enhanced when they
learn that "blacklead' contains no
lead, "copperas" contains no copper,
"mosaic gold" no gold, and German
silver" no silver; that "carbolic acid"
is. not an acid, coil of vitriol' IS
not an oil; that "olive oil' is B.
salt, but crock oil'' is neither an
oil nor salt; that some sugars are
alcohols, and some kinds OF wax are
others; that "cream of tartar" has
nothing in common with cream, "milk
of lime" with milk, "butter OF anti
mony" with butter, sugar of lead !"
with sugar, nor oliver of sulphur +"
with the same animal organ from
which it was named. Readers OF
chemical writings sometimes fail to
appreciate the advantages OF styling
borax "di-meta- borax of. sodium, !"
or of calling common alcohol " methyl-
carbinol," and they ignore the eu-
phony in such words as pentamethyl-

anarchist organization throughout the country,
threatening, as it does openly, their lives and

and the fearful work done by the anarchist
weapon, the dynamite bomb. is fresh in the
memory of all, and is kept so by the trial of the
leading members of the organization in Chi

Gus outbreak opened the eyes OF the
American public to the danger which con-
stantly threatens it, and has filled the
authorities with determination to destroy the
organization. as far possible, root and branch,
and to place the prime movers in it where they
will be harmless. It is we'll known that the
hotbed of anarchism is located in Chicago but
very few know how extensive it is even in that
city. The ramifcations of the anarchist organi-
cation extend throughout the country in every
direction, and it numbers in its membership sew

New York contains the most believers in the

Eggs for Prohibition Rhode Island.

Boston Special to New York Tribune.l
A red-faced, jolly driver of q big two
horse truck team got into trouble yes
terday afternoon and was led into let
ting out q little secret which he would
have been glad to keep. He was COM
ing up fremont Street from the North
End, and when opposite the Common
got into jam of truck teams, one Of
which pushed his cart to one side and
tipped off portion of his load.
Among other things which fell into the
street were three wooden shipping
cases filed with eggs. The cases we're
of medium size, holding forty nine
dozen eggs each. The cover of ore
case was Knocked off in the fall, and
the large, brown Plymouth Rock
eggs went skipping over the granite
pavement like English sparrows after
spilled grain. They rolled and car
romed among the wheels Of the We
hicles and the feet of the horses, great
ly to the amusement of two news
boys, who rushed in and began to
break the eggs and suck the contents.
A large boy cracked an egg and
holding it up to his expectant mouth,
closed his eyes, opened the shell and
gave himself up to gastronomic Joy.
An amber colored fluid touched his
tongue, causing him to make wry
face. "Rotten?" asked the bystander.
"Naw," was the reply, "but's a funny
tasting egg Sever [ seed. Guess they
be lined eggs" Then another boy
carefully cracked one Of his with the
handle of a jackknife and peeped
through the crust. After this he
smelled of the shell carefully and then
touched his tongue to it. Hiseyes had
gleam of wonderful intelligence as he
turned to the waiting crowd and said:
"'Tain't an egg at all, it's nothing but
whisky" OF course there was g.
scramble for the eggs, and the driver
had hard work to get his box back.
When his boxes were all loaded again
he said he had received six cases of
eggs from North End liquor dealer,
who told him to take them to the
Providence depot. and cautioned him
to be careful and mot hatch the eggs
on the way" as they were for hotel
use in Rhode Island. Taking up one of
the eggs and breaking it in front of the
crowd, a ruddy liquid ran out, leaving
nothing but q common porcelain shell,
such as is sold at agricultural supply
stores for "nest eggs" Instead of
albumen and yolk, every egg was full
of whisky, each one containing about
enough for good drink.
