The Letter " x. "

In Lippincott's Gazette, edition of
1880, the letter *" begins the
name of 80 places of which IS are
duplicates, leaving 72 names of places
to the credit of the letter as an initial.
Following the pronunciation given
there the initial letter is given as re-
presented by j, ks, S, h, y, and, sh.
In not a single instance is the letter
pronounced, nor is 1t pronounceable,
at the beginning Of name or a word.
The Century Dictionary says it was
Greek addition to the Phoenician
Alphabet. From the Greek it went
over to the Latin, and thence to the
English. We have reduced it to the
h sound as an initial, and to ks, gz, kz,
and other substitutes, by reason of i'm.
possibility of pronunciation. The Cen
tury says: "In any case the sign X
is superfiuous in English as it was in
Latin and Greek 1t denotes no
sound which is not fully provided
for otherwise"
The Encyclopedia Dictionary says:
" 1t is superhuous letter, as it repre-
sents no sound which cannot be ex,
pressed by other letters and adds
that, as an initial, it occurs only in
words OF Greek origin, most Of the
functions being scientific or technical.
When used at the beginning Of a word
it has precisely the sound of q"
When we spell exactly" we say
egzactly,' and SO OF all other forms.
1t is double consonan;. 1t is an un.
known quantity 1t is a Roman NUM-
eral 1t is a superfuIty in the alpha
bet.

is five cents on the latter ten cents.
Access to the many points of inter
est on the field can be had by either

the first days fight and of the cavalry
fight can be reached only by carriage

Battlefield Memorial Association, the
hundreds Of magnificent monuments
that have been erected, the great in
terest that is manifested for the great,
est battlefield in the world, the op-
portunities for meeting their old COM
rades, together with the pleasure,
profit, instruction and recreation to
be had by visit to Gettysburg, and
the minimum expense at which the
trip can be enjoyed, make strong in
centives for the !" old boys" to turn
out singly, in squads, or by posts, to
this Encampment.

The usual treatment of catarrh is
very unsatisfactory, as thousands can
testify. Proper local treatment is
positively necessary to success, but
many, if not most, of the remedies in
general use afford but temporary re-
lief. A cure certainly cannot be ex-
pected from snuffs, powders, douches
and washes. Ely's Cream Balm, which
is so highly commended, is a remedy
which combines the important requi-
sites Of quick action, specific curative
power, with perfect safety and pleas
antness to the patient. The druggist
all sell it.

The law of supply and demand for
staple articles goes right along whether
our statesmen keep up or lag behind
in their heroic efforts to bull and bear
the markets at home and abroad.
But the operators of deliberately
closed coal mines know Of course
that the home demand can be very
soon supplied if our mines are run to
their full capacity. They will never
run full time and full capacity except
when It is deemed policy to oversiock
the coal market. As overstock tends
to cheaper all wares for the benefit
Of consumers they take mighty good
care that the demand is equal to the
supply so far as they can regulate it..
And though they sometimes jump
the traces Of the coal combine, yet
for the most part it must be said that
there is "honor among thieves
when knit together for their Lecuniary
advantage.

The heated term will soon get down
to settled business and then swelter-
ing humanity will begin to long for
the coal atmosphere of the sea shore
and mountain resorts. To those whose
business will not permit of prolong-
ed stay at the former, the Proctor Inn,
at Jamison City, offers most delight
ful substitute for the sea shore for
short period Of absolute rest and re.
creation. The merits of this pleasant
and popular nearby summer resort do
not seem to be properly appreciated.
1t is beautifully located upon the
mountain side, presenting a delightful
view of the valley below, and offers
superior advantages TO the student,
the invalid and the over-worked busi-
ness man for quiet, healthful rest and
recuperation. Under the care of land
lord HOMELAND his estimable better
half" the Inn is a model of neatness
and comfort, and all who desire to en-
Joy a season of rest and breathe the
pure mountain air during the heated
term should visit this popular and we'll
kept summer resort. -Argus.

FIGHT MAY BE DECLARED OFF.
If Judge Call Refuses an Injunction
the Duval Club May Quit.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 23.-The bill
praying for an injunction against Sheriff
Broward to prevent him from interfering
with the pugilists was called up in the Cir
cult Court before Judge Call this morning
and the argument of both sides presented.
This afternoon the Judge continued the
proceedings and also granted temporary
injunction restraining the sheriff from in
terfering until the case in court is settled.
The Judge is understood to be of the deter
mination TO grant a permanent injunction
If the arguments presented convince him
that such a contest as is indicated ia the
articles of agreement is not against the
laws Of the State. If the decision is not
made to-day the fight may be postponed
till Saturday The club made such a prop
osition TO the fighters to-day.
Sheriff Broward this morning concluded
that an injunction of the court might prove
TO be an instrument of some consequence,
even worthy of his official notice, If not
his personal consideration. He made this
double-ended statement: 'I want TO tell
you that this fight won't take place in Du-
val county, but If the judge thinks that the
Governor is wrong, and an injunction is
right. why, then that's all I've got to say
about it," The manner OF the official was
that of a man who was willing TO admit
that he might be stopped without being bot
tied up.
Speaking of Judge Calls probable decis-
ion on the injunction, Mr.. BoWden said to-
night: IF the Judge says that this contest
is against the law, then we will at once
declare the fight off, and IL will be held
nowhere. II, however, the judge simply re-

and does not pass on the law question: ssi snSn
we will go ahead and pull of the ngnt
where IL will not be interferred with"
In the woods?" he was asked
Yes"
What woods%'
'Florida woods" was the reply.
Work was suddenly resumed to-day on
the East Jacksonville arena by the Duval
Athletic Clubs orders, and a force suffi-
cient to- complete IL was on the ground
In addition the extension OF Western Union
wires was made, and before nightfall to-
morrow the instruments will be cut in
This action after work had been supposed
ly permanently stopped, is causing COM
ment.
States Attorney Partridge received a tel
egram from Attorney-general Lamar to-
day stating that he will be in JacksonvlIie
begun on behalf of City Judge Gibbons and
Claus Meyer, of this city, against Brady,
Corbett and President Harmon, OF the May
port railway, for damages for occupying
cottages belonging to the plaintin without
permission will not IL is thought, cut any
figure whatever. Papers were served on
President Harmon this morning, and a dep
ty sheriff went to AIayport on the morn
ing train TO serve them on the defendants.
Meyer and Gibbons claim 500 and Sl25 dam
ages respectively, both suits charging tres
pass The cases will come up for trlal IN
the Circuit Court, and the defendants will
have some time in which to file their an
Swer.
Several members OF the club said late
to- night that there was no longer danger
or the nght being declared OH. Iney as
serted that the rumors TO this effect which
had been circulated were uifounded.
Corbett money was little more plenu-
ful than IL has hitherto been. About fifty
bets were placed with Henry Snedecker.
the prevailing odds being 100 to 40 on Cor
bett. Warren Lewis offered $1,000 even that
Corbett will win in twenty rounds, with
no takers as yet. The American flag will
be raised on the big flag-pole on the Eve
rett Hotel at Jacksonville the morning of
the day of the fight, if it is decided TO have
the fight in Jacksonville. If the fight takes
place outside the city a white flag will be
run up, and all participants will know that
the Florida Central & Peninsular railroad
will carry the people to the grounds.

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla, Jan. 23.-Charley
Mitchell is now entirely ready for the fight.
by a rundown, was completed at 10 o'clock
to-day. and from now on he will quietly
rest until he enters the ring, doing no more
work than is necessary to keep him in con-
dition He is still very confident of the
outcome, and only laughs at the odds
quoted against him. They have often been
wrong" he said to-day, "and they are
wrong this time"
Concerning the proposition to adjourn
the fight until Saturday, Mitchell was very
emphatic. He looked supremely disgusted
when he heard OF the possibility of post
ponement. and then remarked with energy:
'I will listen 10 no proposition from that
club unless IL be made worth my while.

on Thursday The only object of the club
i'm postponing the fight is to draw more
men down here. II takes no account Of
the men who have already come down to
see the fight, but proposes simply TO keep
everybody here at an increased expense so
that il can make money for itself. If they
want a poStponement TO Saturday they
must as / have said, make IL worth my
while 10 wait otherwise l shall fight
Thursday"
The granting of the temporary injunction
was grateful news to the members OF the
Mitchell party. "Of course this does not
settle everything" said Bat Masterson.

was disposed 10 admit the matter 10 arpru-

do heretofore. We nave IL from a source
