From the Chautauqua for September.
Bible names have always been
as popular for places as for babies,
and are consequently widely dis
trIbuted. Not only are all the
Bible lands and cities represented,
but Bible characters, from Eva and
Nashti to Noah and and Solomon.
OF names of places, Bethel leads
with forty one towns, Sharon
having forty, with Lebanon,
Shiloh, and Hebron close behind.
There is Gethsemane, Jordan.
Brook, Patmos-even Endor. A
railroad in Ohio advertises itself
as the "Jerusalem Route" becauses
it passes from Bethel and other
Scripture towns to Jerusalem.
Among the towns are also the
saints of the whole calendar, from
twenty-four st. Johns to st. Tam
many and st. Bridget.
Politics show Free-Soil, Wing,
Democrat, Loco, Mossback, Non
Intervention, Why Not, Spread
Eagle?
Potry may fairly claim Poetry
and Canto, as we'll as Dell Delight
and Sundance. The virtues are here
Faith and all with numerous
Economys. There are Sun, Moon,
Star, Half Moon, New Moon and
Comet. From an eye to solid pros
perity have come Pay Down, Pay
Up, Buyerstown, Cheap even
Gratis. A Useful is Offset by a Use
less Nine Times by No Times !;
Modest Town and Humble by
Pride, Select and Only; Yankee by
Dixie Repose, Quite and Sabbath
Rest by Wide Awake, Noise and

Bachelors Retreat with Bride and
Matrimony; Prosperity with Poor
aud-Neeny.
The leaves Of the Latin Gram
mar seem to have been blown
abroad and to have lodged at Amo,
ArmOr, Est, Veni, Quod. One town
is Protein, which might be repea-
ted by many fair Western town,
while Este sounds like the first
stroke of the hammer at boomers
proposed metropolis.
But what shall we say Of the

A Young La iy and a Shark.

From the New York Press.
Miss Catherine L. Beach is a liv-
ing picture by occupation. She
resides on West Twenty-eighth
street, New York, is very fond Of
the water and an expert swimmer,
and has been in the habit during
the summer Of going up to Mill
Rock Cottage, at the foot of East
Ninety-second street, rowing across
to Woolsey's Point, and taking a
di , in the river.
Miss Beach went up there yes
terday afternoon. She met her
friend Robert Russell, Of East
Kighty-third street, and the cou-
pie climbed into boat and pulled
over to the swimming point. Mr..
Russell is professional diver,
and handsome 6-footer.
They dressed appropriately and
plunged into the water.
After swimming around for
about ten minutes, Russell be-
came tired and climbed into his
boat, and began to row up stream,
his fair companion swimming
easily after him a short distance
in the rear.
1t so happened that young,
slate-cOlOred, shOvel-nOsed shark
just big enough to go out on a
MASKING tour, had invaded Hell
Gate waters yesterday to see what
he could pick up. Ha was about
to take himself away in disgust
when vision of artistic beauty in
the form ola living picture flashed
before him. This shark had seer
nothing like it before, but he de
cided on the instant that he haC
met his fate, and he sauntereC
gaily up to the piece of animated
art.
He only got near enough to touch
her playfully on the foot with his
tail when she shrieked and made {
great squirt forward. But thit
dude shark was not easily abashed
He followed her up despite he
cries for help. Mr.. Russell imme
diately went to the assistance 0
the endangered living picture, anN
quickly yanked her into the boat
His nervy sharkship was RICH
after the young woman, and acteC
as though he proposed to elm
into the boat also, but Mr.. Russell
whacked him vigorously over tn
head and stunned him. The diver
who had been thoroughly familia
with thel water for twenty years
but who had never run across
shOvel-nosed shark before, let alon
one in the desperate pursuit of
living picture, pounded the en-
chanted river monster with tn
oar.
Alex. Meffort, who runs Mi
Rock cottage, and Dennis Ryan,
bOatman, seeing the persistence {
the MASKING fish, and being an
iOus to be in at the death, went I
the rescue. AS soon as Meffort q
near the shark he pulled out h
revolver and blaZed away at
three times. Two of the shots we
effective, and the water about tt
injured shark was soon crimsC
with his expiring blood.
In a few minutes the mOnst
Strengthened out stiff and dead, al
then he was pulled into the DO
and taken over to Mill Creek &C
tage, where he was on exhibitit

DEMAND FOR SMALL BILLS.
IL shows n Healthy Revival I'm Bust.
meas Circles.

From the New York Herald.
There has been an almost unprecedented
demand for small bank notes during the
last week. The subtreasury has been taxed
TO its utmost to supply one, two. five and
even ten-dollar bills. Western and SOUTH
ern correspondents Of the big financial in
situations of this city have been clamoring
for such bills. and a similar demand is now
apparent from nearby manufacturing cities.
All of this Is reported by financiers as
conclusive evidence that q genuine, healthy
business revival has begun. They say this
reaction is not spasmodic and irregular.
but strong. lusty. confident.
To such a low degree had trade been
forced. however. that the first proof of re-
turning strength caused a great demand for
small bills. Many calls came from the
northwest, on account of the movement OF
crops. The cotton movement. somewhat
anticipated, caused demands from the
south. These were of the usual degree.
But over and above these calls were re-
ceived urgent appeals from the north. south
and west. as well as from points nearer
home, for bills with which to settle pay
rolls of concerns of divers kinds which had
resumed operations after an enforced idle
ness lasting many months.
The demand at first surprised the sub
treasury officials here. Then the continued
calls for increasing amounts caused anx-
iety. Bank after bank sept to procure
small bills and each order was larger than
the preceding.
Such was the state Of affairs on Tuesday
night that a telegram was sent TO the
Treasury Department in Washington ask
ing IL the gold rule could be suspended In
this city, up to that time the subtreas-
ury had exchanged small bills only for
gold. and then the banks were clamoring
for an exchange for large greenbacks The
Washington officials realized the import
ance of the situation, and relieved IL by re-
plying at once in the affirmative. From
that time gold Was not required, although
Ii was requested.
The presidents of the various banks with
whom I talked yesterday were unanimously
OF the opinion that the great demand for
small notes showed a real revival of bus
mess. Their views were well expressed 10y
President Williams Of the Chemical Bank
who said:
I'VE have seen the revival coming for
some weeks. ana now We begin to feel It
I am confident that IL is a real revival
too: ard while IL has not come with grea
suddenness or I'm startling proportions. q
comes surely and with an undercurrent OF
strength that augurs well for the near fu'

MRS. TAYLOR'S FUNERAL.
The Services Were Held Privately n
an Undertakings Esta blishme

A sad funeral service, consisting of the
prayer of an unknown minister and the
tears of a sister. was held over the body
of Mrs. Mamie Taylor. the murdered wife
of Thomas Taylor, at Lees undertaking
rooms at 9 o'clock yesterday. The body of
the beautiful but unfortunate woman rest
ed in a neat black casket and in front of
il sat Miss Laura Brown, one of her de-
voted sisters. Mrs. Adams being Ill, and
the family being unable to break the news
TO her. Miss Clara Brown was compelled to
remain with her: but later she viewed the
remains. Two handsomely dressed women
came and stationed themselves beside Miss
Brown, though the funeral was strictly
private. Then a minister. whose name was
withheld, entered the little chapel which is
part of the undertaker's establishment,
and uttered a fervent prayer, while the
sisters tears fell upon the coffin. A few
words We're spoken-not a sermon, but
words of coincidence; the casket was sealed.
and at O'Clock the body of Mrs. Taylor
was carried 10 its last resting place in the
little cemetery at Beltsville, Nd, the town
where children she and her sisters
played and were happy.
The condition of Taylor. who is in prison,
has excited much apprehension. Ii is feared
that he will become hopelessly insane. He
spends his time in weeping and moaning,
and constant watch is kept over him to
prevent him doing himself bodily injury.
