Confusion of Names.

A superfuity of names is often the
cause Of serious mistakes, particularly
in the cases of towns. For example, a
person who desires to visit Corinth or
Palmer's Falls, N. Y, gets off the train
at a solitary station house in the woods
known as Jessup's Landing. But this
instance isn't in it, with that of vii
lage of Westchester county between the
limits of New York and Mount Vernon.
Washingtonville is its ancient name,
but many people call it Mount Vernon,
while others give it the name of South
Mount Vernon. The federal govern
ment, disregarding local usage, names
the local postoffice Wakefield. Pack
ages go astray in hopeless confusion be-
cause the local passenger station is
Washingtonville, while the freight and
express station is Mount Vernon. When
ever the people Of Washingtonville seek
to extrlcate themselves from this con-
fusion they are admonished to be patient
until they can be swallowed by New
York or Mount Vernon.

IN Bloomington upon which women had
been permitted to vote without objec.

great deal Of attention, especially as the
fair voters were engaged in campaign
upon the issue that more male teachers
should be employed in the public schools.
The ladies held mass meeting a few
days before the election at which every
point was thoroughly canvassed and dis.
cussed. All questions bearing upon the

the convention to Miss Effie Henderson,
particularly bright young lady, who Is

will begin the practice of her profession
IN Bloomington during the present year.
Miss Henderson was moving around in

pared to resist vigorously. 1t might be
just as well to mention that the Bloom.

The Lone Star Cotton Picker
A SAFE INVESTMENT.

tits seldom that opportunities are offered
for investments that are certain to pay very
large dividends without danger of loss.
But such opportunities occur, as in the case
of The Lone Star Cotton Picking Company.
Here every fact can be known-the number
of bales of cotton produced, the cost of
picking by hand per bale, and the total
cost. These facts Can be learned in an hour
by any intelligent person who will take the
trouble to examine the statistics, easily
accessible and recognized as authority by
the entire commercial world. It is Just as
easy to learn that the Lone Star Cotton
Picker has been performing this labor for
two years past at a saving of fully so per
cent. over hand work, and that if machines
enough to pick the entire crop could be
furnished, the saving would exceed
$50, 100000 annually. To build these
machines money is needed, and stock is
offered for sale to raise it. You can arrange
to share in this enormous saving by pur-
chasing q single share of the Lone Star
Cotton Picking Company. A single ma
chine, costing less than onehundred dollars,
running fifty days and picking two bales
per day, will save the planter using it more
than $1,000 each season. An equitable
division Of this is anticipated. The par
value of the shares is ten dollars. The
purchaser OF ten shares will thus furnish
the means to build one machine, which
should earn the company ..c yut $4,000 per
year. There is demand for 80 600 ma
chimes to harvest the present crop, and the
ratio Of increase each year is large, and
will be larger as machines for gathering are
supplied. The figures are startling and the
statements facts. The person who investi-
gates will be convinced that such an oppor-
tunity for a safe investment seldom probably
never has occurred in the history of the
world.
Single shares will be sold or blocks of
any size. The machines is shown and its
operations explained at 81 Milk Street.
where all are invited, whether investors
or not.

A pisco;nsolate Governor.

The infant phenomenon of the Bay
State justly feels that he has been play
ing in very tough luck. He was elected
governor of Massachusetts the other
day by a plurality of 1900 votes, and
has been feeling so good over his re-
markable success that he began to think
himself almost a "bigger man than old"
Grover. Now it turns ont that If the
the wide awake and highly cultured Re-
publican voters of Massachusetts had
only known how to mark their Austria
liam ballots Mr.. Halle, the Republican
candidate, would have been elected by
about $4,000 plurality, and young Mr..
Russell, who was pluming his wings for
even the loftiest fight, is left discon-
solate, standing around on one leg like
O rooster in rainstorm.
He may continue to draw the salary
and play governor, but all the roseate
dreams that lately flushed his sweet
young life with opalescent waves of in
describable brightness have fed, and he
is left to plod wearily along in the gray
mists, breasting the piercing east winds
of the man who is rejected by the peo-
pie, and wins by blunder. "This Is
ard" as old Eccles would say.-New

CHRISTMAS CAROLS.


Before the Twelfth Century They Were
Sung in Merry England.
The story Of Christmas music from the
earliest days to the present time teens
with interest not alone for the student, but
for all who love the season of good will
to men," and musical observances con-
nected with it involve so much that is
quaint, picturesque and suggestive of the
various phases of life and habits of men
that volumes might be written on the sub
ject and yet half the tale not told
1t would seem that in the earlier ages
music of solemn and measured character
was used for the Christmas season. The
chants, whose various names, "Gregoriau,"
Anglican" etc., are the result of the
sources they are derived from, date from the
first centuries Of Christianity, and are
noble, refined and exalting, as is the service
proper of both English and Roman churches
today-Christmas demanding music of a
broadly flowing, rich and yet melodious
character, famous singers all the world
over lending their voices to praise God on
the feast of the nativity. But to most
minds the music associated with this dear
festival Is the carol-term suggestive Of
80 much good cheer, happiness and simple
joy that its meaning is readily understood
from carole, querole, Garcia, choral
dance.
It would puzzle an antiquarian to know
positively when the first carols were sung
as such, but in England they have been
traditional Christmas music for centuries.

international Copyright in Italy.

It is to be hoped that the international
copyright, which has just been pro-
claimed as between Italy and the United
States, between President Harrison and
King Humbert, may not throw the plas-
ter cast industry ON both sides the At
lantic into economical spasms. But the
current year has developed, and that the
coming year promises still further to
develop, an almost alarming fecundity
among the sculptors Of Italy in the way
of sketches, molds and casts intended to
"disfgure and present" everything
which did or did not happen, as well as
everything which ought and which ought
not to have happened to the discove"ar
of the New World.
Hardly three weeks ago, for example,
Signor Cesare Orsini (who bears name
cherished by Italian patriots) opened in
the Via Magic at Rome "a Columbian
exposition" of models in clay and plas-
ter, intended to represent all the possible
and impossible phases of the career of
Columbus. No artist appears to have
dealt with Columbus in his cradle, or
with Columbus at the marriage altar,
but Signor Macaghani contributes an
! alarming image of an angel whisking
off to heaven the soul of the dying navi-
gator, and Signor Guilianotti an aston
ished image of Columbus catching his
first glimpse of the New World. Nine
at least of these works of art are intend
ed, as our Roman correspondent in
formed us, to decorate the Capitol at
Washington. 1t is to be hoped no time
will be lost by the artistic and aesthetic
members of the senate and the house in
preparing to receive this worshipful emf
grafton with the whole force, if neces-
sary, of marines and artillery at the dis
posal of the federal government. New
