Ont of Killer.

klter Of keller was an "Anglicism"
long before it was an "Americauism."
Skinner, in 1871, has "Kelter; he is not
yet in keller, nondum est p~aratus." It
IS also given in a reprint of Rays collec-
ton of 1851. The K before i points to a
Scandinavian origin. CT. Dan. kite, to
truss, tuck UP, whence E. kilt. Rietz
gives Swed. dial, killer band, a band
for holding up tucked up clothes; kltra-
sig, to grid up, tuck up, and fasten. The
metaphor is obvious enough.
This word keller, as it should be
spelled, is given in Johnson's Dictionary.
and derived from the Danish keller, tc
grid. a quotation is given from Bar
rows works, where the word is used
Bailey in his chronological Dictionary
derives it from the Latin cultura. Hall
well ("DictiOnary of Archaic and Pro
vincial Words'D gives it as used in the
east Of England both as a substantive
and as a verb. It is a word Of everyday
use in Surrey and Sussex, in the sense OF
order or condition. The Rev. ". D.
Parish, in his Dictionary Of the Sussex
Dialect" notices it in the phrase, This
farm seems in very good 'kelter.'" !
have often heard it used in the same
way, and anything that is out of condi.
ton is described as being out O keller
On reference to the publications Of the
English Dialect society it will be seen
that the word is of very general use
throughout England. In the neighbor-
hood Of Whitby it occurs as a verb and
a substantive, and in the mid and east
Yorkshire glossaries also; it is used also
in west Cornwall, Hampshire and the Isle
of Wight. In west Somerset, in Sheffield
and in Huddersfeld the word means
money. These references will be suff-
Gent to show that the expression is not
an Americanism, but that the word has
found, and still finds, aplace in vernacu-
lar English.-Notes and Queries.

4 Boon for Bachelors.

The advantages of a pocket that has
no sewed seams and cannot rip and that
is neat and smooth in the garment are
such as will be appreciated by every
masculine reader. Such a pocket is the
invention Of an ingenious Yankee, who
calls his device a safety seamless pocket.
The popularity of these pockets is tina;
they are woven complete in one piece.
No stitching or sewing is necessary to
make them ready for use, but they are
turned out by the loom in the exact form
in which they are required for trousers.

Great Force I'm n Nutshell.

The procession of rowboats moving
rapidly about Lake Merritt, Oakland, a
few weeks ago was observed with in
tense interest by a few people who had
watched with eagerness the movements
OF n OF the men in the leading boat.
This boat was fitted with paddles, the
rapid rotation Of which urged the boat
rapidly through the ripples and drew
swiftly the seven other boats IN tow.
The boating excursion was no pleasure
party, but a private exhibition Of a mo
tor which, If able TO accomplish one-
tenth OF what is said Of it, Is the most
powerful application of electrical energy
devised.
Charles Sellander is the man who d.
rected the movements of the leader boat,
and he is the discoverer Of the chemical
combination that produces marvellous
results. The process, the materials, the
manner Of combination, are secrets
closely held, for no patent has been
issued. To a very few people has any
information Of the discovery or inven-
ton been communicated, and these peo-
pie must be losing sleep contemplating
the maryels which the young inventor
claims for his motive power. Sellander
is a modest mechanic, quiet and in
d%ustrious, who is employed by the South
ern Pacific company as ar extra engineer
of locomotive engines.
The outward appearance Of his appa-
ratus is simple. His chemical compound
is incased in air tight copper vacuum
bulbs, for it explodes on exposure to the
atmosphere. Attached to the copper re-
ceptacfe are wires through which the
electricity is fed as on supply wires Of
other electrical systems. The discovery
is the generating materials and their
imprisonment. One of these vacuum
bulbs il no larger than a walnut. Yet
with this infnitesimally small generator
he is said to have sent the light row.
boats dancing over the surface of Lake
Merritt as though they were shells
moved by a Cambridge crew.
The inventor recently told a friend
that for three weeks he had supplied
constant power from his tiny generator
to move a toy boat in a pond in his back
yard and the battery showed no signs of
weakening. To the same friend he said
that he regards his invention or discov-
cry as the nearest approach to perpetual
motion y5t attained.-San Francisco Elk.

Cannibalism in "A Western Camp.

A horrible discovery has been made
in the mountains of South Dakota, about
ten miles from the border, which indi.
Gates that a party of lost people have
been driven TO the dire extremity of
feeding upon each other.
In a deep canyon, where the camp
was sheltered from the storms, there
were found the remains Of a camp, and
at the fire, in the ashes, were several
bones and pieces Of a human body which
had been cooked and partly eaten.
There had evidently been five or six in
the party and three Of them had been
killed to furnish food for the others, for
there were three skulls found, and from
their size it is evident that-all Of them
were those of women or children, for
they we're much smaller than the skull
Of a man. The bones of the legs and
arms were found, and to one leg bone
there was still a quantity of cooked
flesh hanging. The survivors had evil
dently.got some other meat and left the
undevoured part Of the last victim in
the fire, with the intention of burning
it up. but the fire was put out by a
storm and discovery thus made possible.
1t is believed that the party originally
consisted Of two men, two women and a
boy, and that they passed through this
place last fall on their way to the west.
Ii such was the case the men have sac
rifced their companions in the attempt
at self preservation and are now alive.

Six of Them Who Are Engaged as Sculpt-
ors at the Worlds Fair.
Industrious, ambitious, clever women
are finding in Chicago unlimited OPP
portunities to practically test their
skill in new lines of work Scarcely a
bureau, directly or indirectly connected
with the Worlds fair, but employs from
a dozen to hundred women. Remark
able is the inroad they are making in
the higher art of decoration evoked by
the artistic demands of the Worlds fair
buildings.
The tardy development of American
sculpture has long been deplored at
home and abroad. Dearth of native
talent in this subtlest of the arts has
forced the directors of the Worlds fair
to depend largely upon the skilled
artisans of France, Italy and Germany
to execute the designs of American
artists in the plastic decoration of the
exposition building. Anticipating the
need of their services, these old world
artisans came to this country in great
numbers-came in time to escape the
law restricting the employment of
foreign labor.
The horticulture and forestry build
ings are now huge ateliers, where the
babel of many tongues intecpolates the
ring Of chisel or trowel and suggests
the Latin quarters of Paris or Rome
In one section of horticulture hall,
however, Kings English prevails, to-
gether with. an innovation in the his
tory of industrial expositions.
Mr.. dorado Taft, the designer Of the
groups and facades destined to decorate
the exterior of horticultural hall. has
summoned to his assistance six young
women.
Mr.. Taft has long been identified with
the Art institute of Chicago He is a
