THE SHORTEST NAME.
1t Is Possessed by a Commander in
the Tartar Army.

FROM the fouths Companion.
The shortest name in the world was
developed by the war between Japan
and China. 1t is that of General /, a
Tartar commander who has, perhaps,
distinguished himself above other Chi
nese generals, having conducted a cam
paign-though a losing one-of some
effectiveness.
The French are supposed to have a
monopoly of surnames, names which
consist Of one letter. A considerable
number of such names have been cited
in the French press from time to time.
MadanIoiselle o, for instance, keeps a
grocer's shop at Louviers, and Mon
sieur A is rural guard in the depart
ment Of Cote-d'Or A family named Y
is the pride and joy of a Belgian town.
In the United States, given names
they could hardly be called Christian
names-consisting of a single letter,
have not infrequently been bestowed.
A western business man bore the given
name of P-no more no less-through
e. long life, and d certain New England
boy Is named j.
No name so short as that of General
has yet been discovered, however, as
I is certainly the thinnest letter in the
alphabet.

there is not one broken limb, although
many of them were thrown three-quar-

they were riding.

at least four Of the five mail clerks al

was hurled down upon the railroad
trestle and carried away a row of wooden
supports in the center.
