The Common and the Proper Version
of 1t.
The other day some gentlemen We're
chatting in one Of the public Offices Of
Wilmington, Del, when one of the
party, in reply to a question as to how
crops looked in Brandywine, answered:
''Everything is lovely and the goose
hangs high
':Are you aware" Immediately re-
joined an official, ''that you are mis-
quoting that little saying? I know that
that is the common way of saying it..
But still it is wrong, and you may just
as well quote it correctly as not
s'You should say: Everything is love-
ly and the goose honks high By care
less or ignorant usage a very pretty
saying has been vulgarized. 1t arose in
this way. You probably have ticed
in clear mornings in springtime, just
when the season is breaking and mi
gratory birds are flying north, that hocls
of geese as they pass high overhead
emit peculiar cry, which is exactly
rendered by the words 'Honk, honl,
honl1r
sit is that bird note which is
meant in the saying, for usually when
the distant cry is heard it is a beautiful,
still morning, the sky is very high over
head, and the whole surroundings are
indicative to the countryman of a fine
day, and. therefore, everything is love-
" for field and farm work, and the
farmer is happy"

Gigantic Pumps.
son snlpe,

J In lieu of mourning the immense ex-
pense of excavating the London docks
to accommodate the increased size
given to modern ships large pumping
engines have now been set up, and the
water in the docks is raised by this
means. Some idea of the demands upon
these engines can be had from the size
of the docks, one of which has an area
of nearly ten acres, the pumps which
raise the water having q capacity OF
es5 tons per minute raising the water
level Eve feet in ~ hours, says the New
York Sun. Centrifugal pumps Of
superb workmanship are employed,
driven direct by compound tandem n
engines, and the power of these pumps
is evident from the fact that the inlet
orifces to the main pumps are q
inches in diameter, and when worked
together the three pumps have g
capacity to. raise 81, 900, 900 gallons q
water in Eve hours, against an average
head Of 10 feet. The pumps arc y,
arranged to be worked separately ana
independently Or together, as desired.
and the engines are supplied with steam 9
~ 100 pounds pressure by powerfnl
boi1crs !.

Identified the Ticket.

The Lewiston (Me.) Journal tells a
curious after-the-fair story. A man
from Oxford county had lost a rail
road coupon ticket to the fair and had
inquired at the ticket office if one had
been found. One had been found, but
how were they to know that it was his?
He asked tolook at it, and it was shown
to him. He said: sit is mine. can
prove it. See, the face of it is torn off.
Look here!'' and he opened his vest
pocket and showed a hearty cud of gum
and the face of a railroad coupon stick
ing to it. The two matched and the
ticket was passed over to him.

BURYIAG A STEAMER.


The Last Sad Rites Performed Over the
Griffith at Lake Hopatcong
LAKE HoPATcoEG, Aug. 20. 1891 The
remains OF the Frank J. G1iffith. the first
steamer that ever plowed these waters
were buried in the lake here last night
with imposing ceremonies. Crowds Of
visitors came up from Newark and Eliza
beth, and sixteen steamers full of guests
from the lake hotels surrounded the OBJ
ject OF tue evenings celebration.
The old steamer was towed to a point
in the middle of the lake, mile aad 4
half off Salvation Point, at the mouth OF
the River Styx. At nine O'Clock twenty
tar barrels were fired and Afty pounds OF
red light illumined the heavens. The
scene was brilliant one. All the steam
ers were dressed in flags and bunting, and
hundreds of small boats with laurerns at
their bows danced about the spot where
fhelerenlation took place.
When the last timber Of the old Griffith
sank beneath this waves a corner stone
was laid. This consisted of a huge iron
chest, hermetically sealed. containing the
names and portraits of tie original build
ers and owners of the steamer, with cop
les of the daily newspapers. This monu-
ment was dropped into sixty feet Of wat
er. The steamer Griffith was built on
the lake shore aud launched many years
ago. As financial venture the Griflil h
did not succeed.
