A Chance Acquaintance.

Colonel Robert Ingersoll tells this story:
A gentleman entered a street car and took
his seat opposite a fine, portly, aristocratic
looking parsonage, whom he at once
thought he recognized. He looked hard
at the man for a time, until he saw he was
causing him considerable discontinue.
He then changed his seat for one beside
the handsome looking man, and as he did
so, turned to the latter with the remark,
II beg your pardon, sir, for my question,
but I 4 am SO strongly seized with the i'm
preston that we have met before"
The gentleman good naturally replied
that he, too, thought he had seen the
others face, but wasat a loss to tell where.
Both rode on in silence for some blocks.
alternately exchanging side glances, but
saying never a word. Finally the man
Who had preached the subject broke out
with: "Hold on; I have it, sir. Weren't
you blown up at the battle of V~icksburg?:
"Yes?" replied the other inquiringly.
'"Then that explains it. So was I. Wher
you were going up l was coming down.
and I thought as I looked at you then that
that fellow would give a good deal to be az
near the ground as l am. l knew I had
seen your face some place, %comrade."
'Now that is what l call q wonderful
memory" says Colonel Ingersoll. with a
hearty laugh.-Indianapolis journal.

Plural Names of Edible Fish.

A few days ago was asked by a foreign
er, "Why do you say two herrings' and
two soles' and not two Gods and two sal
mons?'" do not think my answer was
very satisfactory, but the question suggest
ed the thought that there are several cases
in which it would be difficult to say wheth-
er there is anything like a consensus of
opinion as to whether Il plural form of the
name of q fish is admissible. We all speak
Of soles, behring's, sprats, lampreys and an
chovies; the singular form never, I believe,
doing service for the plural. No one, 1
think, says mackerels, Gods, salmons,
trouts, Dreams, shads, carps, places,
basses, barbels. Sturgeon, perch, mullet,
pike, turbot, funny and skate have not I'M
usually the plural form in s.
Fishermen and fishmongers are inclined
to avoid the plural form in some instances
where it is employed by the majority of
educated people. In some cases there is
considerable uncertainty-this l have as
certained by means Of a fair number of
tests; among them are carps, shads,
tenches. Compilers of English grammars,
so far as my experience goes, in treating of
plural forms of nouns make no note of the
names of fish which do not vary in the
plural.-Notes and Queries.

Derivation of "Canteen.,,

A Scotch paper, about three years ako,
contained the following, which takes us tc
Flanders:
"As a curious illustration of the changes
words undergo, that of canteen may be.
cited. 1t is, as everybody knows, a vessel
in which soldiers during a campaign carry
water or other fluids. When the Duke OF
Marlborough's army was in Flanders they
called this vessel a tin can. The French
adopted the vessel into their army, and, in
accordance with the genius of their Ian
guage, they placed the adjective after the
noun, making it can-tin, pronounced can,
teen. In this form the English again took
the word from the French, and canteen it
must ever remain"
Really, the English language appears to
be greatly indebted to the Duke Of Marl-
borough's army and Flanders. The dis
corning reader will also observe that tin,
at the end of a word is pronounced teen
in French. As a matter of fact the der
ivation Of the English 'tcanteen'' is some
what doubtful, but the French cantine
italian cantina), a cellar or cave, certain.
ly had priority of the English word. The
editor who could put forward the .etinpot';.
story as a fact could hardly have had

mainly for the reasons that this explana.
ton was hardly applicable to certain ex

good fortune, other and subtler modes of
Interpretation, as well as some exaggera-
tion in the accounts, and that SO many
worthy and learned persons were absolute.

After That the Boy Was Ready.

After That the Boy Was Ready.
Ir the management of the indolent
schoolboy, who never wakes up to the value
of his opportunity, various happy thoughtl
are projected by the skillful teacher. One
such lately come to light is brilliant from
it's novelty.
In one Of the city's most popular and
ably managed institutions of learning, an
able teacher of elocution labored long and
patiently and erstwhile in vain with the
son of a very wealthy man. The boy felt
that his father had so much money that it
would do all of life's work for him and he
need not exert himself more than he liked,
even for his own benefit. He o%bstinately
ignored the exercise of defamation, and
came to the class week after week with no
preparation for his work.
II will make that boy speak something"
finally resolved the teacher. When his
name was next called and he answered, as
usual, "Unprepared," the instructor was
ready.
"step forward, Master B., to the plat
FORM"
He did so.
"Make your bow to the school,"
1t vas done.
Ladies' and gentlemen" continued the
teacher with dignity, 1--WE will now listen
to the recitation Of the multiplication ia
BILE said backward with appropriate ges-
lures"
There was no lodging the command, and
the poor victim stood before his audience
~gesticulating and appealing by emphasis
and meditation to the sympathies of his
roaring school fellows all the way from
"twelve times twelve'' to 1.-TWO, times one"

Poetic Solicitations.

In our salutations we are p%oetical and
pious without realizing it. "Goodby,'
which falls so fippantly from our lips, is
really God be with you" and Good day"
means II wish you a good day-a happy,
prosperous day." The Phoenecians on
meeting used to ask, "What occupies
you?" Another of their everyday phrases
meant to express joy and pleasure was,
"Flesh, rejoice!"
Every day OF our streets we hear the pet
phrase of the Germans, "Wie gehts?" chow
goes itY or "Auf wiedersehen" till we
meet again). And the Italian fruit dealer
at the corner calls to his comrade in his
native tongue, God give you a good NOR

blessings of God be on this house."

This entire elevator question has been placed in the hands of
the honorable Attorney General of the state, with instructions to
bring before the courts.
While the figures show that the bulk of the wheat shipped
out up to date has been by the elevators, it also shows that the
farmers are beginning to realize, and experience has demonstrated
to them, that they can ship their own grain with greater profit and
more satisfactory to themselves than by dealing with the elevators,
and that it is only a question of time when the figures will be
reversed and the farmers will be the shippers instead Of the
elevators.
That we may have a better idea of the value of our wheat crop,
We have prepared the following table, showing the price of wheat at
Duluth and London upon corresponding dates, together with all
costs for lake, canal and ocean freights, insurance and elevator
charges:

Mexico IN Indian Nation.

"People in the United States
have some very queer ideas Of our
sister Republic Of Mexico," said G.

Now, the fact is that Mexico 10 not

tute more than one half Of the pop

are chiefly Indiana with a dash Of
Spanish blood. There are very few
full-blooded Spaniards In Mexico,
and these are hated with q hearty
good will by the Indian hybrids,
who refer to them as 'gauchipins,'
which appears to be Mexican for
snobs. Contrary to popular opin-
ion in this country, there is very
little admixture with the negro race
in Mexico. The Mexicans have no
particular objection to intermar-
rying with the negroes, but there
are very few of the latter in tho
country. At Vera Cruz and other
coast towns there has been some
admixture with the coolies, brought
from the Manila Islands. The
lower Mexican States are almost
exclusively Indian, and millions Of
them cannot speak Spanish at ALL
Many Of them are highly civilized
and very wealthy. Politically it is
a great advantage to be a pure

Diaz, and regarded as the Wash

Oaxaca Indian. There are about
100000 Indians in Mexico still
classed as Savage. They are not
savage in the sense that the Sioux
are, but they add nothing to the
wealth of the country. 1t is the

About Snakes.

There are many very dangerous
snakes in Ceylon, and especially
near Handy, the cobra being tho
most deadly. and it is not safe for
persons to walk in long grass or
Jungle lands. A person bitten by
q cobra only lives five minutes, and,
no matter if help is near, his life
cannot be saved. The tea planters
who reside with their families in
that locality are always in great
danger, and are willing to 60 to
any expense to rid themselves of
their dangerous neighbors. A gen.
tleman recently came from England
and purchased tea estate in the
neighborhood. Several days after
he had taken up his quarters on
his estate he was visited by I native
who informed him that he would
remove the cobrAs for Is rupees.
His offer was accepted. The gen.
tleman and the native proceeded
together every noon, and then tho
native would stop and play on q
flute, and snake would run out of
the bushes. In this way eight or
nine snakes were captured, and it
was not until several days after
wards the gentleman found out that
the native was a snake charmer,
and the snakes he captured hs had
previously placed in the bushes.
It is said that in Ceylon one
fourth Of tho deaths among the ma
tives is caused by tho cobra, and
yet their religion will.not allow
them to kill q snake. The native
has q strange belief about the cobra.
He thinks that each time tho cobra
bites anyone he Immediately bites
q piece from the end Of his tail, and
in this. way he goes on until he
reaches the centre of his body.

the lower regions and becomes >

Concerning Citizenship.

The New York World is authori-
ty for tho following valuable in
formation concerning citizenship /:
Citizens are Of two kinds-nat-
ural born and naturalized. Natural
born citisens arc divided into two
classes first, those whom the citi-
zenship inherits; second those who
inherit citizenship. "All persons
born within tho United States are
citizens thereof" Tho citizenship
inherits them. All children born
in the United States inherit the cit
izenship for one generation. The
old Roman law "that the child fol-
lows the father has been modified
by the statute laws Of England and
the United States, so that the child
follows the father for one genera
ton, but no longer. The child of
the American citizen who has lived
in the United States inherits the
citizenship Of his father, and is born
= natural citizen. If he never lives
within the United States, his chill
drsn are not born citizens, and they
only become citizens by naturaliza-
zation. Naturalized citizens are
divided into three classes those
naturalized upon petition, those
naturalized without their con-
sent (involuntarily) by the act Of
another, and those naturalized (vol-
untarily) by their own act. Tbs
naturalization Of the father in itself
naturalises the minor children un-
der Is years Of ago, and they ~
we'll as he become citizens of the
United States when he takes the
oath Of allegiance. When any alien
woman, being free white or negro
(but Of no other raca), marries an
American citizen, her marriage nat
nralixes her. She cannot marry
unless she becomes naturaIised.
The naturalization is part OF the
marriage ceremony.
