David l.. Gibbs who sought TO open saloon ~

announced to-day that he would not appeal from
Justice Dartletts decision refusing to compel ths

enough saloons In the neighborhood.
The Board OF Excise has since issued q license
doors from where Mr.. Gibbs intended to con-
duct business.
Many OF the neghbors think that influence was

Queer History of Some Words.

Speaking of the strange, eventful his
tory of words, the Hartford Courant
notes that queen" originally meant
simply woman, but now designates
the most glittering place which the
earth can bestow, while with the slight
ly different spelling of "quean" it
stands for woman of O different Sort
SO, too, "knave" Mt the start meant
only boy, as in the German form,
'knabe;" but as boys go wrong some
times the word in time obtained an I'M
pleasant meaning. The word imp
might have been added as having very
much the same history of 'lnave," for,
meaning, first, scion or shoot, it next
stood for a child, and now it means an
inferior devil. Lord Bacon spoke OF

imps, the duke of Suffolk and his
