been under the British flag since 1916,

the master of the hartford, no Euro

habitants. When Napoleon was at st.
Helena, 1890 miles distant, a British
garrison was stationed on Tristan, but
was withdrawn after the death of the
exile. Corporal William Glass, his
wife and family and two private SOL
diers were permitted to remain on the
island when the garrison was with
drawn. The population has increased
to so people, some of the accessions
being due to shipwreck and some to
assertions from whaling vessels.
The captain of the hartford reported
to the Miowera no explanation of the
extraordinary majority of women, but
as his parting bit of information he
related that the men who sought the
corsets, the ribbons and the hairpins
told him that the latest addition to
the population of the island was the
second mate of the wrecked vessel AL.

rocky shores. He was seized by the

News from the group of Tristan d.
Acunha, the three little islands mid
way between the Cape of Good Hope
and the coast of South America, ar
rives here by steamer Miowera, of the
Canadian Australian line. To the
Miowera it was given by the captain
of the ship hartford, spoken by the
Miowera in Australian waters while on
the northward course.
The captain of the hartford, in re-
porting the events of the voyage from
London, announced that in about lati-
tude 81 degrees 5 minutes south, and
longitude u degrees, 10 minutes west,
his vessel was hailed by small boat.
The yards of the hartford were backed
and the boat came alongside. In it
were several men and a quantity of
potatoes, eggs, milk and penguin
skins The men offered the fresh pro-
duce and the skins in trade, saying
they wanted clothing, tea, rice, sugar
and -four from the ships stores in ex-
change for the articles they brought
from their island home. They told the
captain that they depended on passing
vessels for the provisions they named
and for clothing, and that the inhabl-
tants of the islands were in dire dis
tress because for six months not
boat had succeeded in hailing a skip.
The captain of the hartford lowered
into the boat some flour and rice and
tea and other groceries, and also some
canned goods. Then the men begged
for clothing for women and particular
ly for corsets, hairpins and ribbons.
AS the hartford carried no such arti-
cles among her stores the ladies Of
Tristan d'Acunha must go corsetless
and permit their hair to float in the
breeze, not confined even by ribbons.
The population of the island of iris
tan d'Acunha, as reported to the cap
tain of the hartford by the men in the
boat, is so, the women outnumbering
the men in the proportion of three to
one Therefore there are 45 women
and Is men-that means 30 minated
women. The group consists of three

THINGS THEY SAID.

And How They Come to Say Them.
Going to pot is a reminder of the
days when boiling to death was a le-
gal punishment of parricides.
ITO be in a brown study is a cor
ruption to brow study, study requir-
ing much thought and contraction of
the brows.
Knocked into cooked hat" is ex-
pressive of the ease with which this
article, especially when old, assumed
almost any shape.
las dead as a herring" is an ex-
preston arising from the fact that
herring die very quickly after 'g5eing
taken out of the water
Please the pigs is a corruption of
please the pyx," receptacle used by
clergy of the Roman faith to contain
the host or sacred waters.
ITO catch a weasel asleep" is indie
ative of the extreme vigilance of these
animals, who are disturbed and made
wide awake by any sound, however
Slight.
LAS jolly as a sand boy" represents
the hopping to and fro of a marine in
sect seen everywhere along our shores
whose leaps give the idea Of mirth and
jollity.
'"To cave in" comes from the En-
glish coal mining regions. After a
mine has been worked and abandoned
the last item in it's history was the
caving in of the ground above.
ITO curse with bell book and can
die" was the most formal excommuni-
cation practiced by the church Of
Rome. 1t was an anathema pronounc-

of friend.
ITO throw UP the sponge is borrow
ed from the prize ring, it formerly be-
ing the custom. when a prize fighter
had been worsted. for his second to
throw up the sponge used for wiping

DO at Rome as the Romans do is
credited to no less an authority than
st. Augustine, who advised convert,
doubtful about the propriety of some
custom observed at Rome, to do as
other people did.
Tell that to the marines" indicates
the contempt which, even to the pres
emit day, professional sailors feel and
express for the soldiers who form a
portion of the complement on board a
man-of-war.
The term blue stocking" is as old as
the year 400, at which date in Venice
a society of literary ladies and gentle
men was organized, the members Of
which as a distinguished badge wore
blue stockings.

To the Editor of The Herald:
Your news from Logan in the issue
for May 4 contains some inaccuracies
which in the interest of justice need
correcting. To say that President Jo-
seph F. Smith said lit was the duty of
the Saints to follow the advice of their
leaders without question" is neither
candid nor truthful. Neither the spirit
nor letter Of his remarks would justify
the putting of such blind obedience"
construction upon them.
AS TO the vote on the manifesto, it
wGs so nearly unanimous that Apostle
Grant pronounced it as full and free a
vote as he had ever witnessed in amy
conference of the Saints. From the
stand I counted only five negative
votes. To place the opposition vote at
30 to %" is making it two or three
times the actual number NJ. Thatcher,
jr., did not rise 70 vote no." but had
been standing during the meeting be-
cause of the over-crowded condition of
