TUCK-A-SEE-GEE.
The Proper OrthOgraphy of this
Historic Name.

Inc PROPER OGtnOSTApnS Oh tnIS
Historic Name.
We are glad to observe that the Swain
County Herald adhcrcs to the original
spelling Of the above word, the name of
one of the large rivers of Western North
Carolina, as adapted as nearly as could
be caught from the pronunciation of the
Indians. These have no written Ian
guage; consequently there is no standard
Of orthography and the spelling might
be as correct in one form or another But
one rule in Indian pronunciation is inva-
riable, and it must govern all attempts
to reduce their language to wr,itlng-they
have no silent syllablcs. Their language,
largely polysyllabic, is composed of a
number of monosylablcs Joined, but each
one of which has its distinct pronuncia-
ton, the terminal one perhaps the most
emphatic The pronunciation "Tucka-
siege" is therefore manitestly incorrect,
and derived from that lazy or impatient
habit of Americans and English to save
time in speech by cliSion or abbreviation.
Capt. Terrell, Of Webster, or DR.. {. d.
Smith, both familiar with Indian speech,
will sustain us in our views.

A BunCOmbe Pumpkin.

Ben Collins, culorcd, who lives on the
buchanan lot on Pine street, has on cx-
hibition in the store of MIR. A. {. Davis,
a pumpkin, which is worthy the progeny
of the famous Case pumpkin, raised in
Henderson county last year, that weighed
as we rccollcct, 223 pounds, with several
Others on the vine of good size. Ben
Collins weighs 15S pounds, and is per-
tcctly sound and of good shape. He says
the same vine has on it now fifteen more
pumpkins, one of which will exceed 100
pounds, and none less than thirty pounds.
He will exhibit it at the State fair in
October; and unless Mr.. Case is as sue
cesslul as he was last year, the Buncombc
pumpkin gets the premium.

Practical Clergy.

Ministers of the gospel are finding time
to make themselves useful in other
spheres than i'll the pulpit. They rcmem-
Der that st. Paul was a tent maker and
largely earned his bread by laboring in
his craft, thus relieving his brethren of
the burden Of his support. Our brethren,
many of them with families on their
hands and mcagrc stipends of allowance
to maintain them, are compelled to call
into action other and very opposite re-
sources. 1t was this, probably, coupled
with the inventive faculty in high devcl-
opmcnt that led to the remarkable in
vcntion OF the Rev Baylus Cadc to cstab-
liSh tclcgraphic communication between
moving train aud a stationary office.
| Now the Wilmington Review calls attcn-
ton to the invention by the Rev. {. L..
| Arnold, of Wilmington, of a palace car,
by which an ordinary coach can be CON
vCrtCd in two minutes into a luxurious
sleeping car, and restored in the same
time i'll its day uses. The model is on cx-
hibiton i'll Wilmington and attracts
much satisfied attention.

CHICAGO REVIEW.
Business In the Grain Center Dur
Ing Yesterdays Session.

CHICAGO, September 14.-The wheat
market was strong and weak by turns
to-day. Interest in prices was not vio-
lent and the excitement did not run as
high as on some of the earlier days. The
only cause for complaint was a lack of
outside orders. Barring little buying
again to-day on account of New York,
the business passing was almost entirely
local Three or four Chicago houses took
between them fully 100000 of Dccem-
Der when the price was around DHc.
Most of the news was again favorable
for holders. A Minneapolis dispatch says
IN unusual number OF cable orders Tor
flour had been received and the foreign
flour situation had improved. The French
government is said to have figured out
IN increase of 39,00O,OOO bushels OF
wheat in the crop of this year as com
pared with that reported i'll 1883. The
strongest local feature settled down on Il
Yield for this country of $50, 100000
bushels as the stock showing. Brad
street $ London correspondent says the
weather was bad for a great part OF the
month during harvest and that probably
6S, ,OOO, 900 bushels will he all that will
he marketed. while 40, 900, 900 bushels
will be required. The close here for De
ccmbcr and May was 1sc. above ycstcr-
days latest bids, with September, Octo-
her and year %ahc. lower.
Corn ruled active and weak. Trading
was heavy and lu,tuations within
]2a3xc. range. The weakness was due al
most entirely to fine weather for the
growing crop. The market opened at
yesterdays closing prices, was easy for Il
time, rallied &c. on purchases by shorts
and a large local trade, but became weak,
selling off 12a7xc.; ruled irregular and
closed iIa2sc lower than yesterday.
Oats were quiet and easy, due to re-
ceipts exceeding estimates, and also to
weakness and a decline in corn
The mess pork market attracted very
little attention, trading almost cXclu-
sivcly in contracts for January. The feel
ing was stcadicr and prices rather ia
vorcd sellers.
Very little business was transacted i'll
lard. The market was steady.
Trading in short ribs was compara-
lively light and the feeling was stcadicr.
Prices averaged triflc higher early, but
rcccded again and the market closed
rather quiet.

Arizona weekly enterprise., 1889-01-19

NEARLY, if not all, the members of the legislature from the southern DOT ton of the Territory, in going to Pres colt, chose the long roundabout route by way of Los Angeles and thence into northern Arizona by the Atlantic & Pacific railroad. This long trip was preferred to the snort stage ride be- tween Phenix and Prescott leading up the Black canyon, and yet to the ordi- nary Arizonian state ride of 50 hours is not considered much of hardship. It has been stated that a special car is to be run from Los Angeles to Pres colt for the accommodation of the Hon. orAbles, and this significant circum- stance may be the divinity that shaped their several courses to one common center with surprising unanimity The pleasure of trip to the capital in a Pullman car is & luxury whose indulgence is pardonable when the al formative route is over rough and rugged road, beset by rufians perhaps with an overturned coach as an oc casional reminder that life is made uI of sorrows as well as joys.

After Judge Barnes.

The Tombstone Prospector is after Judge Barnes official scalp. In lit tie legal bout several months ago the Judge placed the Prospector owner at a great disadvantage and that gentle man is now trying to turn the tables The following press dispatch from Washington, dated January 18th, gives the particulars of the present status of the case:
 A memorial letter presented to con gress by representative Steele of In diana from J. W. Sawyer of Tomb stone, Arizona, was referred to the house committee on judiciary. The memorial cited the facts of the inn prisonment of s. c. Bagg, proprietor of the Tombstone Daily Prospectoc by United States Judge W. H. Barnes of that Territory. It is stated that Judge Barnes violated the power which the court possessed of punishing per sons for contempt. The proprietor of the Prospector had brought suit against the board of supervisors and after the case had been decided by Judge Barnes the paper criticised cer- tain of his rulings. For this Mir. Bagg was summoned before the court and sentenced to pay fine of $500 for contempt and committed to jail until said fine should be paid. A number of citizens of Tombstone contributed the $500 and paid the fine and Mir l Bagg was released from imprisonment 1 One of the editorials which led to the first imprisonment was as follows "The county ring is being augmented by the initiation into the mysteries ot i the order of those high in office who should halt before dragging theil judicial ermine into the slime of politi | cal bias"

The following from the Cleveland Leader is specimen of the rank in- justice which Is done Arizona by the pen wielders of the east. A correspon- dent of the above paper goes on to to say:
 q met Allen G. Thurman the other day, and after we had exchanged our congratulations and condolences over the election, the subject of Arizona mining came up. Mir. Thurman is a heavy stockholder in a mine at Miner al Point, Arizona, and last summer he went out there to inspect his property. Tt is,' said he, the most God-forsaken country 1 ever saw in my life. 1 be- lieve there is nothing to compare to it on earth, above the earth, or in the water under the earth Then his fea- lures relaxed into broad grin and he said, 'I'll tell you story about that country.

Old Ben Wade could not express. his indignation for such country. He walked up and down the little platform making the air ring with his vigorous English, en- forced by heavy drafts upon the part of the vocabulary which you cannot put ill the paper. Finally, an old settler who had been attracted to the station by the arrival of the train, took up the defense of his home.

A Grave Yard Started.

Ed. Jones, of Pima county, who arrived yesterday from the new gold strike, informs the reporter that the camp has already started a grave yard. It appears that on Wednesday last Alonzo Johnson. half-breed Indian from Yuma, who had been drinking immoderately, walked about Harris burg seeking a fight. At last he en- tered a saloon tent in which Pete Burns, well known in this city, was lounging, and after abusing him con siderably gave him shaking up
 Burns walked out of the tent, and was shortly followed by the half-breed, who was armed with a monkey-wrench
 Johnson approached for another as- sault when Burns drew pistol and showing it against the forehead of Johnson, fired. The ball carried away the right eye and came out from the back of the head Johnson was at tended by pr. s. H. Woods, of this city, and survived for IF hours. A jury exonerated Burns.-Arizonan.
