SPREAD OF ENGLISH.
Due Largely to the Simplicity of IFS
Grammar and Infections.
ICha m harS' journal

The rapid spread of English is
largely to be attributed to the sim
plicity of it's grammar, which is less
complicated than that of any other
western nation. It's marked poverty
of infections. as distinguished, for ex-
ample. from the German, is a great
point in its favor. and thus it is much
easier for a German to learn English
than for an EngliShman or American
to learn German. On the other hand.
the extraordinary photographic incon-
sistency of the language is a decided
drawback, and there is little doubt
that If English were written on pho
netic principles, as Spanish or Ger
man. it's spread would be much more
rapid, to say nothing of the great boon
this would be to the Anglo-Saxons
themselves, who spend years of unnec-
essary toll in Tearing to read and write
their own language
1t is not likely, however, that any
change will be made in that direc-
ton in the near future, at least in
England, for the English. as a nation.

Lo AND THE STRIPED STOCKINGS.
They Were ..Mystifiedv and SO Was
the Untutored Child of the Forest.

FFrom the Lewiston Journal
The returned Lewistonian fell to talk
ing over a revolver that he carried in
the arrest of a desperate of New
Mexico. and then he diverged and told
this story:
"Once when we were going down in
Indian territory, as we rode out of the
village we passed the house where a
New Brunswick girl had just come to
live in the little prairie village. There
had been considerable joking about the
new arrival, and as we passed she came
out to hang up her washing on the line.
l rode a little red pony-one that 1 had
snapped a shotgun for-and when I
saw the New Brunswick girl hang up a
pair of the longest, biggest-striped
stockings L had ever seen l rode right
into the yard and under the clothes line
and seized those stockings and pulled
'em off the line and rode away
"All that trip across the hot plains
and over the rustling buffalo grass the
boys plagued me about those stockings
L had put them into my trunk and
kept them. 1 don't know why took or
kept them
''Well, we got down into the terri
tory and among the Indians. They are
great gamblers, you know, and we bet
with them everything we had. We
raced and won from them all the money
and blankets they possessed.
'The blankets were United States
army blankets, but we can use them by
cutting out the u. s., At last we came
down to foot-runners and the Indians
brought out their man. He could go
like the wind, and our best runner was
nothing compared with him. Why, he
was the best physical man I ever saw.
He looked at our man and his thick lin
curled in derision.
He no good-get a man.
The savage was stripped to his
skin. I looked at our man.
Jake I said, you wait a minute
Then 1 went and got those stockings.
When 1 brought them out they created
the biggest kind of a sensation. and the
curiosity to touch them was something
comical.
They just wanted to put their hands
on them to see what they were I did
not let them satisfy their curiosity. but
carried them through the crowd as If
they were holy relics.
Jake, put those on and run with
them I said
said ~--''0 ii' -'e
Yes, you can. Don't you see that
they are mystified?'
He put them on, and, though he was
a large man, they came clear to his
hips. We pinned them up and he start
ed with the big Indian. 1t was plain bv
the faces of the greasers that they lad
lost all faith in their man as against
the striped stockings. The Indian ran a
little distance and then fell behind
with his eyes fixed in terror on those
stockings. He was beaten. And. do
you know, I sold those stockings to the
Indian for five ponies and a rife ,,

DR.. Gilbert of the Yale psychological
laboratory has just completed some
tests which show that girls can tell the
difference in color shades better than
boys, and that boys think quicker than
the other sex.
While some workmen were digging
recently among the ruined temples of
upper Egypt they unearthed an iron
box containing metal plate, which
two scientists, who have regulations at
stake, declare to be a camera and lens.
A simple way to remember the differ
ence between the harmless Virginia
creeper and poison ivy is this: If the
vine has five leaves, corresponding to
the five fingers of your hand, you may
handle it; if it has only three leaves,
beware.
A young man at Petaluma, Cal, call
ed for white wine, and, being given am
monia instead, drank it. His condition
since has been precarious. A man who
could make the mistake of drinking
ammonia has reason to accuse his nose
of rank incompetency.
Among the crowd of emigrants from
New York are many British mechanics,
and the letters some of them are writ
ing back from the old country are like
ly to influence others to emigration.
Several affirm that they find work
plentiful, pay good and living cheap.
This news is getting round among
friends of the emigrants and making
much impression, in view of continued
hard times in this country.

CONDENSED from the N. Y. Herald I
The White Lead trust makes a profit
OF 100 per cent. on the product it sells
10 the American people. The president
OF the trust has admitted that the con-
Germ sells white lead in the United
States for 6 cents a pound and in
Europe at 81 cents. The tariff on white
lead enables the trust to do this. 1t is
TO be assumed that a normal profit is
made on the goods which are exported,
The quantity annually sold to Ameri-
cans is 15O0O0,0O0 pounds and the
trust appears to make Az million dol
lars on this.
The White Lead trust was started in

dollars to 80 million dollars. When first
operated, the appraised value of all the
companies IN 1t was 20 million dollars

three years ago, and common and pre-
ferred stock was issued to the extent
OF 30 millions. In March, 1893 by the
annual report of the National Lead

was put down at $22, 951, 57124 Adding

time, according to an article printed in
the Herald, the selling price of COM
mon and preferred stock averaged SCI

Several men of affairs, in an effort
to organize on opposition concern to
the Nationa- Lead company, employed
an expert to assess the values of the
concerns various properties, and about
the last of April, 1893, he reported
them to be worth all together, only
S1,640,000 This includes twenty-six
plants. The preferred stock is worth
50 a share, the common stock about
$40. The former draws 4 per cent. an
nual dividend, the latter per cent,

The Procedures.

assembling and it was SIS when time
was called. President Mccormick occu-
pied the chair and Messrs. Young,
Bache, Cheesman, Cohn, O'Meara, Ma
son, Newell, DAILY, Lynn, Watson, Co
rum and Morris We're present.
After the reading Of the minutes of
= the previous meeting, the consideration
of the retrenchment recommendations
made by the finance committee were
taken up where they were left off at
the Tuesday night meeting.
RETRENCHMENTS.
The first item was waterworks, 81. 900
per month, which Young, as chairman
of the wateFworks committee, stated
was inadequate to keep up the system
as it ought to be kept up, but he
thought they could get along with it
for the present The item was adopted.
Donation TO the library, 1888 per
month, was passed, the same having
been appropriated some time ago by
the council, 1888 per month for year.
Health and crematory departments,
$1,000 Councilman Newell said he
Ndidn't see how they could cut down
{that department much, if any. The
garbage had to be disposed of and it
was absolutely necessary during this
hot weather to burn it.
Mr.. Cohn said the department was
now costing $1,000 month and no re-
duction could be made until October l.
when garbage district No. could be
dispensed with, by which the average
cost from now until January l could be
brought down to 81, 100 per month.
Young thought the department should
be abolished and that the sanitary in
EpectOrs should compel each individual
to clean up his own garbage The ere
matory should be kept going, but the
system of the city collecting the gar
bage should be done away with.
Newell, Lynn, Daily and Mason
wanted the matter to lay over till Tues
day evening to give an opportunity for
further investigation. and it was so
ordered.
Printing and advertising, $3.50 a
month. Young moved that the item be
stricken out, for the reason that it was
not possible to regulate the amount.
The law required advertising to be
done and he favored referring the mat
Ter to a committee to have it done as
cheaply as possible and to distribute il
among the several newspapers. pro-
vided the city did not lose by such dis
rribution. The item was referred to
the committee on enrolment with in
structions to bring in a method of let
ting this printing to the proper parties
for six months or year
This completed the report as present.

In the matter of the Pacific Paving
company's request urging a settlement
under a resolution passed by the coun-
Gil December 2S. 1893. referring to re-
