Observant persons have noticed, within
the past few years, that the word pants has
given way to trousers, crackers to biscuits,
suspenders to braces and CATERS to boots
and shoes Tt is perversion of the word
gaiter to use it for either boot or shoe.
Gossamer is also being supplanted by mac
intosh-the name of India rubber covered
coats These changes are in the right di-
rection, and it is pleasure to note them,
In this connection it is proper to refer to
some extremely common errors in pronun-
citation, which are by no means confined to
the uneducated:
Arab is arab, not G-rab.
Cigar is se-gGT, not sjg-ar.
Express is express, not cypress.
Dahlia is dG-lia, not dGl-lia.
Italian is e-tal-yan, not t-tal-yan.
Piano is pc Ga.-o, not piano.
Harass is hGT-ass, not har-dss.
Inquiry is in-ta0i-re, not iqt-kwe-re.
The mispronunciation of the last two
words, says Golden Days, in which we ind
the foregoing, is heard when you would
least expect 1t. The former rhymes with
embarrass.

Perhaps, perhaps" said Colonel
Chenier in tone of doubt. 81 suppose
he is too young to have been in the

"Oh. he was with Sherman all the
way to the sea-" said Rosalie quickly;

the line of march; he spoke of Dalton,
Resaca, Calhoun, Kingston and Mari
eta; he was mere boy, but he went
through it all"
A grim, ashen shadow settled over
Colonel Chenier's face as her words called
up the memory of his burned up home
and devastated plantation, his slaves set
free and his fortune dissipated by the
breath of that army of Sherman's.
"He was one of the house burners and
woman insulters then, perhaps"
"Oh, no, he wouldn't do that; he's too
much of gentleman to ever have been
guilty of such acts" she quickly ex-
claimed, her voice full of earnest faith
in the young mans innocence. HE is a
proud, honorable, conscientious man, not

bles and half buried in ashy debris, he
fancied he could hear the thunder of the
fight rolling away toward Snake Creek
Gap. Below him lay the valley, scarcely
less fenceless ruin than when the army
had left it charred and smoking after
the battle.
He turned away, wondering what had
become of the unfortunate family, and
especially the young. woman.

A man who had c My few hundred

day at a bSnking house and asked to see
the manager, who was a man of con-
servative mind and fully acquainted

he said: Invest this for me. Use your
pleasure with it. I'm going to the coun-
try for the remainder of the summer.

you can let me know what you do with

The man walked out and was not seen
again for many months. His money was
judlciously invested on his carte blanche
order and began to accumulate. The
house duly informed him, according to
its business methods. Of his good luck.

himself at the banking house. rosy

memory was refreshed he recalled the
circumstances Of the case.

Razed at the brick or shell sidewalks as
hepassed along, aimlessly strolling in the
breezy shade Of the trees Somehow he
felt that Rosalie loved him, notwith-
standing her strange action. 1t was use
less for him to attempt to unravel Just
then the mystery of her excitement or of
Ellis unwonted impoliteness. Between
himself and the latter he knew of no
reason for quarrel In their business
transactions Ellis had had things quite
his own way, and there had never been
any but the kindest words between them.
Surely the man could not be so foolish as
to fall in passion because he was ad-
dressing Miss Chenieri The difference
between the north and the south at this
point had not occurred to him.
Therefore when after an indefinite
stroll he at last found himself entering
the Pulaski House and meeting face to
face with Ellis. he was profoundly sur
prised at being accosted as follows in a
low, determined tone:

speed of the "Gulf stream. ;,

Three miles an hour is about the average
OF the Gulf stream, though at certain
places it attains speed of fifty-four miles
per hour; in the Yucatan channel, for an
instance, where it is ninety miles wide and
1000 fathoms deep, the current is not over
a quarter of mile an hour In the Straits
OF Bemini the current is SO rapid as to give
the surface of the water the appearance of
being sheet of fire.-St Louis Republic

A Tree Over Five Thousand Years Old.
There is an African tree called the bao-
bab, which lives to be thousands of years
old. Humboldt calls it "the oldest organic
monument on our planet" One specimen
of it that was carefully examined by an
English botanist proved to be 5,150 years
old. At least that was the result of the
usual test for determining the lives of
trees. The particular tree was thirty feet
In diameter, and the spread of its branches
was enormous.-Philadelphia Times.

Nearly every pattern of A Horse
Blanket is initiated in color and
style. In most cases the imitation
looks just as good as the genuine,
but it hasn't the 7e'arp atreads, and
so lacks strength, and while it sells
for only a little less than the genu-
inc it isn'tworth one-half as much.
The fact that M Horse Blankets
are copied is strong evidence
that they are THE STANDARD,

ANOTHER OF ITS SINS.

It seems that among the other crimes Of
which the Republican national committee
is guilty Is that of sending poor ANNA
DICKINSON to the insane asylum. 1t will
be remembered that ANNA was employed
to deliver Republican speeches during the
last campaign at certain price per speech.
She went upon the stump and for time
made Rome howl, from a Republican
standpoint, but long before the close of the
campaign she was called in, the committee
declaring that she was doing the party and
cause more harm than good. This would
have been all right il the committee had
kept the financial part Of the contract,
which it did not do Instead Of making
money out of the campaign, the "fat''
squeezed from the manufacturers By QUAY,
WAN2MAKER and others was withheld from
Miss DICKINSON, who came out of
the business pauper, SO to speak.
Her bad treatment and poverty so
preyed upon her mind as to overbalance it,
for which sad affair the Republican ma
tional committee, which broke faith with
her, may be said to be responsible.
A letter written by Miss Dickinson's
sister to an aunt residing in Indiana has
been published, and in it is found an ex-
PLANTATION of AYNA's illness, together with
the cause leading to it. The sister writes
Annals illness is nervous prostration, brough.
on by overwork Of brain when physically toe
weak for it, by anxiety, grief, business worry
and our financial condition, aggravated by the
unjust and wicked treatment OF the Republican
national committee. 1t brought on continuous
insomnia, and that resulted on Feb. 10 in an
access OF high fever and delirium, followed
later by intense depression-greater than ever
beforehand the dread, which is one OF the worst
features of long-continued nervous prostration.
In this condition she locked herself in her
room and would admit no one, nor take in any
food. On the third day we were obliged TO force
access, and the doctors said must let her &c
where they could oblige her TO eat. or would
become responsible for her mind becoming per
1nanently ILL., Absolute rest is what they pre-
scribe for her at present. and that she has
where she is with the best Of care and atten
ton kindly given,
had a letter from the doctor yesterday. Hs
says they have induced her TO take food regu
larly and she is beginning to sleep naturally a
night. That she does not want to converse be

MIR. BLAINE's MISTAKE.

It seems that the Italians lynched at New
Orleans were naturalized American citi-
zens, and if that Is really the case the
Italian government will have no more to do
with the case than will the government of
Persia. The case concerns only the
United States, as it relates to citizens of
this country only. Should other Italians,
therefore, apply to the government of
Italy for PREPARATION in this matter, that
government, though apparently sympathiz-
ing with them, would have to say; Your
cause is just, but we can do nothing for
you.'
The case affords an Illustration that it is
not possible under any system of govern
ment to secure in all cases absolute justice.
As we understand it, the state of Louisi-
ana must deal with that trouble, and nei-
Their the government of Italy nor that OF
the United States itself can interfere unless
the state authorities shall ask fol-
the aid of the federal power. II already
appears that Mr.. BLAINE has committed ar
error by his hasty letter to the governor
of Louisiana.
In 1850, after the riots in Denver, Secre
tary of State EvARTs wrote the Chinese
minister, CHEN Lam PIN, that:
The powers of direct Intervention on the par
of this FEDERAL government are limited Icy tn,
constitution of the United States. Under the
limitations of that instrument the government
of the United States cannot interfere in regar,
10 the administration or execution of the mum
cipal laws of a state Of the union except unde
circumstances expressly provided for in tn
constitution. Whatever remedies ma,
be afforded TO The citizens of Colorado OF to tn
citizens of other states OF the union resident il
Colorado for losses resulting from that occur
ence are equally open 10 The Chinese resident
of Denver who may have suffered from the law
Iessness of the mob. This is all that the prir
ciples of International law and the usages c
national comfy demand.
March %, 1881. Mr.. BLAINE, then score
tary Of state under President GARFIELD, in
letter TO CHEN Ian PIX, referred to thi
statement Of principles by Mr.. EvARTs a
follows:
I must express my regret, however, that th
views so clearly expressed by my predecessor
regard to the question of liability of this govern
ment to make pecuniary indemnity to the Oh
nese sufferers by the occurrences at Denye
failed to your enlightened judgment. Concur
ing, as do, in the conclusions thus reached
Mr.. EvARTS, and conceiying the principle upo
which they rest to be in consonance with pu
lie law and the universal practice Of nations,
must insist that that principle is the one b
which the obligations Of this government, in r
gard to the incident in question, are to l
measured.
And it appears to US that this New o
leans case would have still come under tt
same rule even if the murdered Italians hs
been subjects of Italy. But as they we
United States citizens, the Italian govern
nent has nothing further to do with ther
