ABOUT NAMES.
The Commonest Name In Ireland Is
Murphy.
H.

The special report on surnames in Ire
land by Mr.. R. E. Matherson is much more
interesting than British Blue Books are apt
to be. 1t appears that the commonest name
in Ireland is that of Murphy, it being es-
timated that in 1890 no less than 1900 per-
sons bore that honored name. Kelley, Sui
Ivan and Walsh come next in order, our
own illustrious Smith only taking the fifth
place. There are many English and Anglo
Norman names, some Danish, quite num-
Der Welsh, with Cornish. Scottish, Huguenot.
German, and very few Welsh names. AL
though the Murphys are SO numerous, they
only stand first in two counties, Wexford
and Carlow. Names in Ireland are very
much more identified with districts than in
England, as g. g.. Byrne in Dublin, Louth
and Wicklow, Sullivan in Cork and Kerry,
Ryan in Limerick and Tipperary, Doherty
in Derry.
1t appears that in 1898 there were 253, 600
Smiths in England, the Joneses coming next
with 242, 100. In Wales the surnames have
mostly been formed, as in Russia, from the
Christian name of the father in the genitive
case, ''son'' being understood. 1t stated
in this Blue Book that" hereditary surnames
were not in use among the gentry of Wales
until the time of Henry WILL. nor were they
generally established until much later
period; indeed, at the present day they can
scarcely be said to be adopted among the
lower classes in the wilder districts, where
as the marriage registers show, the Chris
tian name of the father still frequently
becomes the patronymic of the son IN the
manner just described, in the Isle of Man in

MURDERoUs ASSAULT.
A Drunken Bowdoinham Man Nearly
Kills His Wife.

The town of Bowdoinham, in Sagada-
hoe county, was greatly excited Sunday
night over CRIES of murder coming from
the home of Mrs. George Furbush, lin
the center of the town. 1t was about 9
o'lock.
A crowd soon collected and rushed in
to the house. Louise Bessey was lying
on the floor, with blood flowing from
three knife stabs which had been in
ficted by the husband, who was imme-
diately arrested by Deputy Sheriff Fl.
D. Cornish. The knife was taken from
him and he was taken TO the lookup,
where he was closely guarded untilsmorn-
ing.
Drs. Irish and Palmer were called,
and after an examination of the won.
an they decided that she was in very
critical condition. and that her chances
of recovery were doubtful.
1t appears that Bessey has been on a
protracted spree, and over a week ago he
and his wife had some trouble over his
bad habits. They have not been living
together since then, she going to live
with her daughter by former husband,
Mrs. George Furbush.
Bessey made an excursion Sunday in
to the country with George Clark, and
after they came back he filled up on old
cider and made several threatening re-
marks against his wife, and it is alleged
told CLARK that. he should do her bodily
harm. He kept on drinking and talk
| ing ugly, until he started for the house
hare his wife was As he entered the
house he made the villianous attack on
his wife. The first stab was in the back,
between the shoulder blades, the Second
| near the shoulder, and the third nearly
severed the wind pipe.
When the daughter, Mrs. Furbush, saw
| that her stepfather intended to murder
her mother she attacked him as best she
could, and in the struggle she received a
| severe cut on the hand.

We cannot better close this imperfect
sketch than by copying a tribute from
the Portland PRESS written by our
well beloved citizen. Hon. Samuel Spring
who has since joined the great army,
ever moving on and on, beyond our WIS.,
ion. He says of her: "The form which
SO long and patiently moved in kindly
ministrations around the soldiers bed of
pain has now claimed for itself the ten
der Offices it once bestowed. In Miss
Walkers death we recognize but another
example of moral heroism and self sacri-
ice, among the host which this terri BILE
war has produced, and whose record
shall stand the pride and glory of the
nation. Shall the heroic sons who have
been smitten by thousands with pesti-
lence and sword for our country and for
| freedom, be forgotten? Nay, verify! nor
shall the memory of those noble Chris
tian women who in camp and hospital
have fallen weary with watching be
surrounded with a lesser glory. Give
| to them the full need of honor, for
their names are worthy place beside
the br avest who fell at Gettysburg, and
| in the Wilderness

A Mr.. Rouse of Bath asks the city 5000 for
land taken to widen a street some seven
teen years ago. and upon which the damages
were originally fixed at 200. This claim is
based upon profits which he figures would
have occurred from building he contem-
plated erecting at the time the land was
taken if he had been permitted to go ahead
with his plans. This will strike the average
citizen as a somewhat unusual method OF
reasoning, and we very much doubt if the
claim of Mr.. Rouse is allowed.

A funny thing occurred at a recent meet
ing of the city council in Auburn. The
mayor directed the clerk to call the meet

first floor of Auburn hall block, but through
misunderstanding the notices were given
for the members to meet in the council
rooms, three flights above. The result was

writes Ellen lie Garde in The Ladies' Home
Journal Strange to say, the most COM

of curvature cases occur between the ages

If your child is carelessly permitted to as

formed from il, and it will in time obtain
complete mastery over the deficient devel-
