NUMBER OF WORDS IN USE.
Number OF Words in General Use
Small, But Some Men Command
Thousands
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.


From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
It is generally recognized that the num-
Der of words which we commonly use in
our daily lives is comparatively small.
perhaps not more than two or three thou
sand words, but instances of individuals
who are acquainted with and can use
larger vocabularies are not unusual. Some
stenographers have declared that they
have nemorized and have instant use of
as many as five or six thousand word
signs, while others in special work or re-
search, have acquired larger vocabularies.
DR.. Eugene Murray-Aaron, In his enter
tanning Butterfly Hunters, has brought
together an interesting collection of facts
in this regard The volume is not one that
takes particular note of language, but is
one of adventure in the Antilles The doc
tor, who has charge of a party of boy
naturalists, gives to them much informa-
tion on very wide range of topics infor-
nation WHICH will much of it be new to the
old as well as young.
1t has been estimated saws the doc
tor, in instructing the boys, that Victor
Hugo remembered and used accurately
over eight thousand words in his ORDINARY
work as writer; Cuvier, the French nat
uralist, and Louis Agassiz, the Swiss zool-
oglst, could promptly give the names, ac-
cording to careful estimates, of over five
thousand animals, in addition to the ordi-
nary words they knew perfectly 1t has
been said of DR.. Asa Gray, the great bot
anist OF Harvard, that he knew quite eight
Thousand plants by name and at sight
But by far abe most remarkably
trained memory with which l have had
acquaintance, was that of Dr. Joseph
Leidy, for many years and until his death
president of the Academy of Natural
Science, of Philadelphia. DIR. Leidy was
not only a foremost geologist and mann
malogist, having hundreds upon hundreds
OF the terms of these sciences upon his
tongues end; but he was very good stu
dent of birds, reptiles, fishes, insects and
lesser things, and remarkably ready in re-
membering where their different species
belonged in the great order of nature
Besides this, he was an authority on
microscopic life, especially minute para
sites, was a, fair botanist, one of the lead
ing physicians and anatomists of his time
and perfect encyclopedia. of geography
and exploration. Add to this good mem
DRY for names and faces, and a familiarity
with several foreign languages, and YOU
get some idea of this mans powers in that
respect After a long conversation with
him one day on this subject, / estimated
that his memory enabled him to use
twenty-five thousand words at WILL
DR.. Murray-Aaron gives the details of
this estimate, which allows for English
geological and general science, three
thousand words each, three foreign lam
guages and geographical, two thousand
each, and technical and medical five
thousand each This estimate does not
seem to be an eXtravagant one.

DEATH IN A BOOTLEG.
1t Contained a RattIesnake's Fang,
and Two Men who Put on the Boot
Are Dead

From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Binghamton, Dec. 22.-One day last sum-
mer Thomas Horton was passing through
a piece of cleared land, when he was
bitten by a rattlesnake. The reptile was
shedding its skin, and, therefore, in its
most venomous condition. The serpent's
fangs had penetrated the cowhide boot.
and it was easily killed.
Horton took off his boots, and his wife
gave them to Napoleon Meeker, a negro
who worked on an adjoining farm. He
wore them and died. Archibald Hooker
a nephew of the dead man, wore them
forty-eight hours, and he also died in
great agony. The boots next passed into
the possession of an old trapper The
second day he wore them he was at
tackled witt a pain in his leg. His ex-
perience told him it was the result Of
rattlesnake poisoning. He applied a rem
edy in time and recovered.
On examining the bootleg he found a
small point of piece of bone embedded
in the hide. 1t was the fang of the rat
tlesnake, placed in such a way that on
drawing out the foot the fang, which
curved upward, would not injure it. but
on putting the boot on il would be al
most impossible to escape a slight scratch
from the poison-covered tooth.

They Think Their Prayers Saved the
ship.

From the San Francisco Examiner.
Tacoma, Nov. ga most remarkable
story of saving an ocean steamer by
prayer was given out to-day when the
steamer Tacoma arrived from China and
Japan. Last week, when 1000 miles from
Yokohama and near midocean, twist
err struck the vessel and all but wrecked
it. The waves dashed over her. All con-
troll of the steamer was lost, and she
drifted about at the mercy of the big
waves. Then she listed. and the officers.
losing hope congregated in the surgeons
caOin and united in prayer.
Several hundred gallons of oil had been
cast upon the angry sea, but to no avail:
but soon after the officers Joined in pray
er the storm subsidized, the vessel righted
itself, and the officers cleared away the
wreckage on deck and brought the
steamer safely into port, after one of the
most terrible experiences ever recorded
on the Pacific ocean. No one was lost
and in the official chronicle of the battle
with the cyclone, prepared by Second
officer Smith under direction of Capt
Crawford. divine providence is credited
with saving the steamer and all on board
Isaac Bunting was the only European
passenger aboard, and he is credited with
encouraging those aboard during all the
dangers encountered.

it is worth noting that the bes. skater
on the zee that afternoon was one OF the

HAS NETHERSOLE BEEN WISE?
Olga Nethersole brought her engage
ment at the Empire 10 an end last
week. At the last performance OF
Carmen" it was almost impossible to
get standing room after s o'clock. Why?
Was it because New Workers were 80
crazy to see really great actress?
Not bit of it. In Denise" and "Frou
FrOu' and Camille they had allowed
her to play to empty benches, but the
fame of the kisses which she interp0-
lates in Carmen" has succeeded in DO
ing what her genius had been unable
TO accomplish by herself.
1t was those naughty. OVerheated
kisses that the audience paid out their
hard earned 81 for TO see.
l really think that Miss Ncthersole
has made a great mistake I'm catering
to the sensational element so dagraniy
as she does in this part. The realistic
lOve-makins in Carmen" viii not find
favor on the road, l warrant you that.
For a time, purely by ics sensational
ism, it may prove a drawing card but
this performance is going TO damage
Miss NethersOle seriously In the opinion
OF the great big American public which
has stood ready to accept her as the
best English-speaking actress or her
day.
If her manager. Daniel Frohman, had
only played his card properly, there is
no reason why year hence this young
woman should not have held q unique
position on the American stage-a sort
Of cross between the POPULARITY Of Mary
Anderson and Of Clara Norris. But
Carmen has proved q false step.
"GENTLE3GAN JOE" PROVES VERY
UNGENTLEllANLY.
And so after all the pow-wow and tho
hOW-de do Gentleman joe has como
to a cr0pper on its merits. l don't
think l ever sat through a drearier per-
Torrance than that at the Fifth Ave
nue.. Since the first night they may
have made some alteration in il for
the better. 1t would be utterly impos-
sible 10 make it any worse. Ny heart
gives thuds TO think CT the cruelty of
that law Of fate which cCmpels the
Fifth Avenue orchestra to sit ont that
performance every night. The play is
q hodge-podge of vulgar cockney slang
and persiiase How any sane man
ager could imagine such a play would
hit the American taste passes my
comprehension.
Strange things often come to pass in
