Our Marines Mt Paris.

Secretary Tracy has received letter
from General w. b. Franklin, United
States 2mmissioner at the Paris EX-
hibition, concerning the services of the
Marine Guard at the exhibition under
Captain Henry Clay CocMane and
Lieutenant X. st. G.. Murphy. The
letter is of special interest at this time,
when the question of what shall be
done with the Marine Corps is under
discussion, aud its total abolition has
been sug gested. General Franklin
say
"Their behaviour during the Exhi-
bition AMI after its close was in all
respects what it ought to have been.
They were admirable in discipline,
their conduct was ire pvoachablc, their
performance of duty was excellent,
their soldierIy bearing and military
appearance were far ahead of those
qualities in any troops which | saw at
the Exhibition or in Paris. When
they appeared in a body they were
enthusiastically received, and it was
the unanimous opinion, not only of
those connected wi. Ia the United States
COMMISSION, but of the citizens of the
United States who visited the Exhibi-
ton, that their presence added dignity
to the United States exhibit, and that
they did honor to their C m.ry and
their flag.
Captain Cochrane and Lieutenant
Murphy not only performed their
duties admirably as t. officers of the
detachment, but were of great assist
amce to me in various other dutlcs that
they were kind enough to undertake.
The French authorities of the War De-
partment were very kind in their re-
ception of the marines and in trans
porting them and furnishing them
quarters in the barracks Of the Ecolc
MiIitairc with FIcnch troops. In fact,
all French troops treated them as COM
rades, and the REALTORS between these
soldiers and them were of the pleas
ATTEST kind. thank you for having
given me the opportunity of close ac-
quaintance with such excellent troops"

How the Great Lakes We're Named.

Il names of the great lakes of
America are generally of Indian origin.
The early discoveries of Ontario called
it "St. Louis" and afterwards the
early French called it Lake From
tenac," after the governor. The Eng
lish when they first claimed dominion,
called it '.katarakui, or Ontario; :"
Mitchell called it "Catarakui," and
POwnall the same, but the name "On-
tario" was the one always used. Huron
was named from the Indian tribe on
its shores when first discovered. From
Romans, 1706, and De Elsie, 1879, it
received the alias of "Michiaan :"
Hennepin, 1898, and Coke, 1921,
called it ''IIuron, or Karcgnondi; :"
Washington's Journal 1854, calls it
"Quatoghi, or Huron"
Lake Michigan, persistcntly called
at first '.Illinois," was called "Michi-
gan" first by Sencr in l744, since
which time it has been generally
known by that name. Champlain, the
first typographer of Lake Superior,
called it Grand Lac The wonccr-
full Jesuit map called it Tracy, or
Superior" Coke and Sener called il
by an alias after the Sioux, or, as
they were then called. Nadoussiars, on
its shores. Lake Erie received its
name from the Erics OF its banks, and
uniformly retained the name. The
Fries were know as the Cat nation ;
therefore some early writer's call ii
''Felis" and 'Du Chat" Sencr called
it "Cadaragua." Washlngton's jour-
nal, Mitchell and Pownali called il
"OksWego."

Beating q Circus Advertising Agent

The weekly paper on which
learned my trade was situated in a
town which no circus going West ever
skipped. We used TO count on those
circus ads. as regularly as we did on
the holidays, and for years and years
we were without break. They were
cash, of course, outside of the dozen
free tickets which the agent left, and
the money pu led the publisher through
q tight place more than once. Our OBJ
jet was, of course, TO get as high a
rate as possible, and to get high
rate we had to boom the circulation.
1t held steady at about $50, and for
the first three or four years it was suf-
ficient to tell an agent that we printed
''about a thousand copies" After
that, however, there was one chap
who gave us trouble. He was an agent
for old Dan Rice, and he paralyzed us
by asking to see tie pile of paper we
had wet down for the outside pages.
While he didn't get to see it, he
he knocked our regular $40 ad. down
to $50, and he had no sooner gone than
we began to plan TO beat him the next
season.
About the time he was expected we
got an extra bundle of paper, fixed it
with the landlord of the hotel to notify
us, and the idea was to wet down
enough to show full thousand cop
les. We were dsily expecting n call,
when an old tramp primer slouched
into the office one morning and asked
for a ID. We We're Just getting

EXpelling a BOulangist,

This account of recent session Of
the French Chamber of Deputies is
suggestive of the disord RS which has
lately ruled the House of Representa-
tives at Washington. In the course Of
a debate upon the decision of the Gov
eminent to annul the vote by the NUM-
cipal Cou Gil of Paris of funds in aid
of the strikers in the Nord and in the
Rhone, NJ. Jotlrin attempted to speak.
His right to his seat, however, was
still vehemently contested by the Bou-
langists, Notwithstanding his recent
vaidation, and they created great up
roar. The whole Left rose TO its fee i,
and there were numerous alterations.
Nj. Casimir Pericr, who presided, was
almost powerless to restore order. He,
however, read clause 1913 of the Rules
of the House, and cons ulted the Cham
be: rs to the temporary exclusion IF
NJ. Deroulede for insulting, provoking
and threatening colleague. The vote
of censure was then carried. In the
midst of the tumult NJ. Deroulcde was
heard to eXcllim: IL ask that this in
dividual be not allowed to spear." 1t
was apparent that he referred to NJ.
Joffrin. The President then said the
Deputy for Montmarte had a perfect
right to address the House, and as the
Boulangists continued their uproar he
read The clause temporarily excluding
from the House any member who re-
sisted Il verdict of simple censure.
Temporary exclusion having bee
voted, he invited NJ. Derouledc to
withdraw. Tie ex-chief of the Patri-
OTIS League declined to obey this in.
junction from the Chair, and violently
gesticulatcd in his seat. Thereupon
the Nice-Presidcut put on his hat and
walked out of The House. The sitting
was suspended, but tie Boulangists re-
manned in their seats, whilst the other
Deputies walked about the open space
opposite the tribune, or into the lob
bies. Shortly afterwards orders were
given to clear the public and Press
galleries. In the meantime most of
the members with the exception of a
dozen on the Right and the Boulangists
on the Extreme Left had quilted the
House. Finally the Colonel on duty
in the Chamber placed his hand on NJ.
Deroulede's shoulder. and that Deputy
followed him out amidst cries from his
co leagues of give Ia Rcpublique !"
