Names of Southern Negroes.

A Yankee friend of mine in speaking of
the Limeliln club says: sit is inimitable,
only that the names of the members are
so exaggerated When I wrote her a list
of the queer names that have become so
familiar to me from much hearing she de-
clared that she would retract her opinion
of the Limekiln names being exaggerated.
The negroes generally take their names
either from their surroundings or obtain
them from the white people, often mixing
up names in the most homogeneous style.
Lily is the favorite name for the blacklist
pickaninny among them. Our old wash
erwOman named her only child Mary
Mandy Selma Pleasant Delightful. A
bow legged young defendant of Ham re-
Jojces in the name of Shadrach Meshach
Abednego-thOugh he is generally known
as Shad.
A fond young mother could not decide
what to call her first son, so in her d1-
lemma applied to young lady, who told
her to call him Willipus Wallapus. The
name tickled her fancy and now Willpus
Wallapus is added to the list. This same
negro has since become the mother OF
daughter, and in speaking of her few
days since says: II amt SOt on no name
for her yit, but III either call her Queen
Victoria or Mrs. Cleveland" She also
has StepSOn, an OVergrONn fellow OF IL
or IS, who bears the sweet name OF Rose
bud Tabb. But perhaps the most ridicu-
lous names are found in those of the
children of half witted negro near this
place. There are three of them, named
respectively Heaven, Hell and Moses
S1note the Water. A party of picnickers
were very much startled in passing her
house one day to hear the following COM
mand: ''Look hyar, Heaven, you niggah,
you go down to He'll and git dat ar dip
per wot dey got down dere." 1t was only
after a thorough investigation that she
could be understood. Alabama Cor. De-

a New Military Vehicle.

A new vehicle is to be tested at Alder
shott, England. 1t is shaped like long
racing boat, and a dozen soldiers can sit
on it in single file and propel it easily at
the rate of sixteen miles an hour, drawing
eight baggage wagons after them. This
multicYcle is steered easily by one man, is
affected little by rough roads and turns in
less space than an ordinary hanson. The
invention is not to be offered outside Of
England. -Boston Transcript.
