HISTORY OF A WORD.
An Albany Paper Claims to Have Been
the First to Use Telegram.


the First to Use Telegram.
1t seems incredible that it was only
little over forty years ago that the
telegraph was invented and put in
practical use. 1t may not be generally
known that the Albany Erening Jour-
nal gave the word telegram to the
world. In its files of April 6. 1852. the
following was printed. and from this
paragraph was derived the word ..tele-
gram" now found in every dictionary:
to give notice that he will ask leave, at
some convenient time, to introduce a
new word into the vocabulary. The
object of this proposed innovation is to
avoid the necessity. now existing. OF
using two words, for which there is
very frequent occasion. where one will
answer. 1t is telegram. instead of tel
egraphic dispatch or Geographic COM
nunicatiOn. This word is formed ac-
cording to the strictest laws of the Ian
guage from which its root comes. Tel
egraph means to write from distance
Telegram, the writing itself. executed
from distance. Monogram. logogram.
ETC.. are words formed upon the same
analogy and in good acceptation. Our
friend, moreover. says that the House
line, if disposed to be precise. should
call their communications teletypes, as
they are printed, not written. In
generous spirit of liberation, he pro-
poses no action upon the last sugges-
ton: but as to everybody else, except
the employers and customers of the
House line, he would have them '.held
and firmly bound to speak, write,
print and telegraph telegram, instead
Of any two words signifying the same
thing, under penalty OF being consid-
cred verbose and tedious. Albany

Oddly-Shaped Straw Bonnets.

A large number of the pretty straw
bonnets for summer wear are shaped
with the oldest peaks. curves, flares
and gable-ends styles which are only
suited to rosy girl. with piquant
face. tip-tilted nSse and an abundance
of wavy hair. There are. however,
some hundred different shapes. so that
no one need this season to be forced to
wear an unbecoming or inappropriate
head-covering from lack of variety.
The princeSse and neat French cottage
shapes find twenty purchasers to any
six buying other styles. These con-
tinue popular from the fact that in
brim and height of crown there is
shown no eccentricity. Flowers are
used in abundance, and among the
novelties are sprays of watercress, dan
delion blossoms as perfect as natures
own. tiny heads of lettuce beautifully
shaded, white and tinted morning
glories in velvet. and silvery dusty

EIFTEEN-MllE GUNS.
The Most Marvellous Thing Yet Attempted
in fiunnery.

Some important experiments have
been made at the ShOeburyne5s school
of gunnery in high-angle firing. A
London correspondent writes: Probably
no step OF recent years is likely to lead
to greater results, for if the experiment
should be repeated with the same sue
cess, it is undeniable that war ships
will have to be Us fully protected on
their decks as they now are on their
broadsides. The experiments were
made with the 9-inch or 23-centimeter
gun used as a howitzer. An elevation
of 81 degrees was given and battering
charges were used with Palliser shells.
Out of four shots three fell within a
space of 800 feet by 80 feet, represent
ing the deck OF u tirst-clasS iron-clad,
and the range attained was II miles!
Now, if it be really possible three times
ont of four. or for that matter once out
of four times, 10 throw 9-inch shell
upon the deck cf a ship in midchannel
between Dover and Calais, another
proof will have been given that in the
tedious duel between gun and :rInor
the gun has much the best OF it. What
is very important. too, is that the heavy
charges and the high angle did not
strain either gun or carriage i'll the
least. and one of the officers present
has said that ne believed the gun
would stand - degrees of elevation
without injury. while with ~ degrees
a range of u miles would be secured.
Now, at ID miles, a ships ''hull down"
so it comes to this, that we can throw
a 9-inch shell on to the deck OF ship
before We can sect. Surely this Is the
most marvellous thing yet attempted in
gunnery. which of later years has been
so fruitful in SURPRISES. d y. Reg

of Burial.
In spite of the multifarious duties
and tasks that are imposed ON these
tiny burghers. they still find time to
clean and adOrn their worthy little
persons. No spot, no atom of dust or
any thing else uncleanly will they toll
crate on their bodies. They get rid of
the dirt with the brushy tuft on their
feet or with their tongues. They act
for all the world like domestic cats
when they clean and lick themselves,
and they assist one another at the toilet
precisely like monkeys. Their sense
Of cleanliness goes so for that the
naturalist often finds. to his unpleas-
ant surprise, the colored marks that he
had applied with 50 much care on his
trial ants removed by their dirt
hating friends. They keep their
dwellings, just as clearly.
But the conveying away Of their de-
ceaSed brethren, whose bodies they ap-
pear to regard with the greatest an
tipathy, gives them more trouble than
any thing else. When some members
Of an ant community which Mr.. Cook
kept imprisoned died and could not be
removed, those remaining seemed af
fected with the greatest horror. For
days the insects ran about seeking a
way out, and ceased only when COM
pletely exhausted. The ants belonging
to the camponOrous species seized the
dead and threw them into the water
pail, which they converted into
sepulcher. Ordinarily, though. the
ants are said to treat their dead with
more reverence. They even possess
their own graveyards. which lie in the
vicinity of their nests. They convey
their deceased companions thither,
where they lay them down in orderly
little heaps or rows.
1t is only the corpses of their fellows.

master and slaves of the same COM
munity Miss Trent says she has OBJ
served a dissimilar mode of burial.
While the masters find their last repose
In special graveyard, side by side,
the slaves lie like heaped up refuse
near the nest, despised equally in
death as in life.
The ant cemeteries are often thickly
populated. for their life is short. The
male lives only through one summer;
the female lives somewhat longer. and
the workers die of old age in the eighth
or tenth year.-N. Y. Graphic.

ATHLETIC TRAINING.
Advice to Readers Anxious to Attain Healt
and Strength.

and Strength.
The means to be adopted for the at
tainment of robust health are cleanii-
ness, regularity of habits. moderation
in diet, exercise, preferably in the open
air. in accordance with the capacity of
the individual and nature of the con-
test, and abstinence from strong drinks
and tobacco.
If man trains simply to improve
his health he does so more or less
moderately; if for contest, more or less
strictly in accordance with the i'm
portance of the event. A man can do
either without a trainer if he has an
ordinary amount of common sense and
will power. The man who simply de-
sires to live in a sound, healthy condi-
ton should follow these rules. modify
ing them slightly. according to age or
physique.
Get up not later than seven a. m.
sponge and rub yourself with a coarse
towel until the skin is red. Do not
stop if perspiring, but keep on until
tired. 1t is good exercise. Then dress
and take fairly long walk before and
after breakfast. Walk to your place OF
business. Attend to work in the usual
way, resisting every inclination you may
have to give way to Incidence. Walk
home. Never mind the weather; a
little rain will not hurt you and sum-
mer heat will not affect you when
you have done it long enough to do
you good. Then have dinner, avoid
ing, as at your lunch and breakfast,
greasy, sweet, highly favored or sea-
sOned food. Water is the best thing
to drink, and that is better drank after
finishing your meal. Take your time
over dinner in particular and other
meals in general. If you have not time
to get meal leisurely go without it, as
it will not injure you quarter as much
as it will to eat it in hurry. Amuse
yourself in the evening according to
your own taste, which as you get
healthier will incline to active rather
than sffeminate amusements. Repeat
the sponging and rubbing. and go to
bed before eleven p. Nj. Justin, IN

THE AMERICAN EAGLE.
How the Bird of Freedom Is Captured by
the Indians of tho Northwest.

How the Bird of Freedom Is Captured by
the Indians of the Northwest.
The method of capturing the bird
among the Absaraki and Blackfeet oil
the Northwest is exceedingly novel
and most ingenious as well as curious.
In fact there are two styles of hunting
eagles. The first thing of all is, OF
course, to hold an eagle dance. An
Indian can not do any thing without
first dancing for it, and as an eagle is
an exceedingly hard and difficult bird
| to capture, the dance in consequence
must be all the harder and more pro-
tracted. As rule the Nomads of the
Northwest still cling to the Anticipated,
antedated bow and arrow, and as their
quarry scars high among the mountain
peaks, forever on the watch and keep
ing away from danger, it is very diff
ficult matter indeed, even with fine
sighted rife and a quick trigger. to
bring down one of these high flying
birds. Yet the Crows capture them
almost easily with their simple arrows,
where a white man, armed with the
best of modern breech leaders, would
fail to score nine times out of ten.
Crawling carefully like snake among
| the rocks, an Indian will work his way
high above the eyries, when il is a very
easy matter to send an arrow flying
downward, and usually with skillful
results.
The second method practiced by the
AbsaralIi tribe to secure the much
coveted birds is to build an eagle trap.
The brave who is after plumber goes
off alone by himself to the Big Horn
mountains, proceeds upward until he
arrives in the perpetual snow district.
and selecting favorable spot digs a
pit large enough to snugly conceal his
person within. After a vast deal of
careful preparation Zone item OF which
is to carry the loose earth away in the
blanket and cast it to the winds), the
still hunter arranges covering for
his trap. consisting of light reeds and
grasses, and then proceeds to ensconce
himself in the pit. The bait is a slice
of tough meat, bear or mountain goat,
firmly attached with sinews tOsi piece
of rawhide, and this is laid on the trap
outside to await customer. just at
dawn of day, as the sun is coming up
over the eastern peaks, the eagles. who
IL night long have smelt the savory
morsel. swOop viciously down upon the
rawhide and bear meat, which they pro-
coed vigorously to tear with their talons
and beaks. Meanwhile, the buck in
side, watching his opportunity. reaches
up through an interstice in the trap.
and. seizing the big fellow firmly by
one of his legs, quick as wink drags
the surprised bird of liberty down into
the prison below.
The fun would not now be all on one
side either had the eagle even a fash
of a second to recover himself in; but
the Indian. the moment his victims
neck is within reach, with one sharp,
quick. wicked swipe of his long, keen
hunting knife, sewers that Rember
from the body, and so the matter ends
The warrior then returns to his lodge.
and proceeds to relate to his friends
and relations the wonderful exploits OF
his trip, of which he is the sole
hero and big high-muck-a-muck.-Fort
