THE ORIGIN OF NEWS"
Not Combination of the Initial Letters of the
Commas

indianapolis News.
1t is popular to say that the word
"news'' is derived from the initial let
tiers of the four points of the compass ar
ranged in Il device in the form of Il cross
and placed at the top of some of the ear
lier news sheets to indicate that their
contents were derived from all quarters
But it is easy to show that this
is purely fanciful. First, = the
earliest English newspaper =. dates
from 1862, and we find the ,word
news, exactly III its modern sense, i'll
Shakespeare, who died DRarly fifty wears
earlier, namely, in 1916 a<ssThus wehave
(fMacbeth, ''-S15,+E) '"f4ow noS?''
''what news?'' ('winter's Tale -
Cho.). "'But let times news be
brought!' ("King johnny. Given
at that news he dies. - This list, which
might be extended indefinitely, from
Shakespeare and other writers, would
alone be sufficient to dispose of
the north, east, west, south theory; but
reference to the equivalent words in
the tongue to which England is most
nearly allied viii further show its fallacy.
In German the initials of the points of
the compass read i'll this order: IN,
o., w, s., while the word for new is
neuigkeiten, obviously impossible of de-
rivation from these four letters, while it
is derived from the word new. Again in
the French the initials are N, E., o.,
s., while the word for news is nouyelles,
once more simply the plural form of
new.
The true derivation does not seem diff
cult to trace. Some take it directly
from the German ''das neu, - which is
an abstract noun signifying "the new -
and equivalent TO our news. The geni-
tive is news, and the phrase WAS giebts
neues? - renders the exact sense of our
"What s the newS?' Moreover, the
old German spelling is new, genitiSps
newes. Yet this, plausible as it lesssss u
is not the origin of the @EordsS
When we find in Anglo-Saxon suqh
phase as hwat hives? (what news Esfan
be ut no loss to determine that tfsfeswordl,
is of pure low German or natiHesEnglisH
origin, although the French Mouyell%x
may have influenced its use. The faeE
that the word is often used in the singular
confirms this. Thus we have il John
Florio's ''WorId of WOrds'' Q59S)
" Novella, a Tale, Nerves. - In the
"Wit's Recreation, - published in 1910,
we have the following epigram:
When news doth come, if any would discuss
The letter of the word, resolve it thus:
News is conveyed by letter, word or mouth
And comes to US from North, East, West and
South
The little corps of the newspaper fra
ternity were then beginning work in En-
gland, and being tickled by the above
epigram, had it put at the head of their
paper as already stated.
Skeat says that news is not older than
1900, and cites Berner's translation of
Froissart, "Desyrous to hear the news
and Surveys translation of Virgil,
"What news he brought But at
least one earlier instance is to be found
in the FSiege of Rhodes, - translated by
John Kay, and printed by Caxton about
1850. -

DIPHTHERIA SPREAD BY CATS. :
Interesting Report OF an English Physician On
Epidemics
Science.


Science.
Domestic animals have often not only
been suspected but found guilty of
spreading infection. In his report on the
recent sustained prevalence of diptheria
in Enfield, England, DR.. Bruce Lew of
the medical department OF the local gov
eminent board, incidentally states that
during the continuance of the
epidemic cats were observed to
suffer in considerable numbers
from illness; and in December, 1887,
and in January, 1883, there was large
mortality among those animals-so much
so that the attention of the dust contrac-
tor was directed TO it. He stated that
never in his previous experience had he
seen so many dead cats in the dust heaps.
Some households seeing their cats i'll de-
stroyed them. Though there were no
known cases of diptheria occurring in the
practice of the veterinary surgeons ut En-
field, yet they saw many cases of ''infiu-
enZa - at this time among animals. The
following is an illustration of the possible
connection between diphtheria i'll children
and in cats: A little boy was taken i'll
with what turned out ultimately 10 be
fatal diphtheria. On the grSt day of his
illness the cat, which was III the room at
the time, licked the vOmit on the floor.
In few days (the child meanwhile hav-
ing died) the animal was noticed to be
i'll, and, her suf1ierings being so severe
and so similar to those of the dead boy,
the owner DESTROYED her. During the
early part of its illness this cat had been
let out nights i'll the back yard, as usual.
few days later the cat of a neighbor
who lived Il few doors farther off was no
ticed to be i'll. 1t had also been out in
the back yards at night. The second
animal, which, however, recovered,
was the pet and pIayfellOw of
four little girls, who, grieved ut
the illness OF their favorite, nursed
it with great care. All four girls Gevel-
oped diphtheria, the mother being con-
WINGED that they got it from the cat; and,
indeed, no other source of contact with
infection could be discovered. 1t is easy
to imagine eats catching infectious dis
eases like diphtheria, when we remember
how often milk and other unused food
from the siCk-rOOm is given to the cat or
by some people thrown out i'll the back
yard for the benefit of their neighbours
,e2ts if they have none of their own. 1t
rs saSfrequcnt occurrence to see children
carryspg eats in their arms, and ege9-z
kissin%them. It is Obvious that, issaBss

The following explanation is given why
the year 1900 viii not be counted among
leap years. The year is 365 days, five
hours and forty-nine minutes long;
eleven minutes are taken every year to
make the year 365l4 days long, and
every fourth year we have an extra day
This was Julius CHsar's arrangement.
Where do these eleven minutes come from?
They come from the future, and are
paid by emitting leap year every 100
years. But if leap year is omitted regu-
larry every hundredth year, in the course
of 400 years it is found that the eleven
minutes taken each year will not only
have been paid back, but that a whole
day will have been given up. So Pope
Gregory XIII. who improved on Caesars
calendar i'll 1882, decreed that every cen
turial year Invisible by four should be
leap year after all. So we borrow
eleven minutes each year, more than
paying our borrowings back by emitting
three leap years in three centurial years,
aud square matters by having a leap year
Iffstfse fourth centurial year. Pope Greg
orSEs arrangement is so exact, and the
B6EFpwing and paying back balance so
elSSely, that we bOrrowH5nore than we
pay back TO the extent of only one day in

Mr.. EDITOR Citizen was aware.
when he addressed you last Thursday.
that the Fair Association had the promise
of percentage on all passengers to Bay
Ridge during the fair. but it has been
stated that the Bay Ridge management
would only give the Association q per-
centage On steamboat passengers for one
day instead Of four days Aud as the
railroad controls Bay Ridge. in part. and
Bay Ridge controls the steamboat, it
looked like there might be some monkey
business about the percentage all round.
and all the Fair Association might get
would be the fifteen cents levied on each
Annapolitan who visited the fair. But If
the Fair Association gets the benefit and
all the percentages promised 10 1t are paid
to it in good faith. all will be right; and
as "A Friend of the Fair" claims to be
posted In these matters. ii Is TO be hoped
that ne will see to it. that the Fair Asso-
citation don't get left. CITIZEN.

The Pubic Schools.

On Monday, Sept. Srd. the public
schools will reopen. Many of the teachers
have been of on well-earned vacations.
and we trust have all enjoyed themselves
and that they will come back thoroughly
refreshed and rested. The scholars. we
know have enjoyed themselves. the simple
fact OF their having vacation is recreation
to them. No matter how much work they
may have done to extract little fun, it
has been holiday. But the opening of
school will not be pleasant to most OF
them; the last two months has changed
their routine, and it has all the disagreed
bleness of new departure in life to elder
heads. After all men and women are only
grown up boys and girls. and though the
disappointments of life may not make us
shed tears our feelings of regret is just as
great. In memorializing on this We are
fercibly reminded of the song; Shells Of
Ocean, which says
And thus said in every stage
BY toys our fancy is beguiled:
We gather shells from youth to age,
And then we leave them like a child.
