Slang from the Days of Old Rome.

Passing through a vacant lot the
,ther day where some boys were hav-
ng game of ball, heard one of them
who had got a rap on the knuckles
rom a foul exclaim, Jimmy, that

myers a moment, he went back to his
place on the field, little dreaming that
ne had Just uttered a solemn invocation
% the old Roman demigods Castor and
Pollux. For our vulgar Jimmy" is
out a corruption of the Latin "gemini,"
wins, a name applied to Castor and
Pollux, the twin sons Of Jupiter and
Leda. These hero gods were the pa
irons of games and festivals of all
kinds, and the especial friends of trav-
alers; hence when an old Roman ex-
claimed, 30 Gemini." it was a devout
appeal to the gods for help or protec-
ton. very much the same as when a
knight of old called on his patron saint.

A Natural Foghorn.

At the Farallones the erosive agents
have worked with queer caprice. This
rock being granite, has been acted upon
by the sea at all levels, and through
out the long period when it has been
rising out of the watery depths.
Through long, narrow hole, slanting,
and communicating with the ocean,
there comes at intervals terrific
stream of air, followed by the spas
modic heaving of the waves against the
lower orifce. The government, which
uses this island for lighthouse pur-
poses, inclosed the upper end with the
nozzle of foghorn, and every few
seconds there was blown an ear-split-
ting brawl, which was heard far out at
sea, and above the din of the breaking
rollers. 1t was allowed to roar only
in foggy weather, but it was eccentric
in that it would only sound at high
tide. When the tide was low, although
the weather might be thick, the thing
was silent. For lack of its warning, a
ship went ashore upon the island
rocks, and then it was that the govern
ment abandoned its location on tie
windhole and erected steam sfen. or
mechanical foghorn, which has since

Articles Now Kept In the National Mu-
scum at the Capital.
One of the most interesting relics IN
the National Museum at Washington
is the camp chest used by Washington
throughout the revolution. 1t is
compact affair, about the size OF q
tourists wicker chest for cooking OF
the present day, two and one-half feet
long. two feet wide, one foot high,
and it contains an outfit consisting OF
tinder-box, pepper and salt boxes, bot
ties, knives, forks, gridiron and
plates. Every bit of the outfit save
one bottle, which is broken at the
shoulder, looks strong enough to stand
another campaign.
Nearby are the tents used by Wash
ington-three in number. One is
sleeping tent, twenty eight feet long
with walls six feet high and q roof with
a six-foot pitch. 1t is made OF linen.
The other two are marquee tents OF
smaller size, one with walls, the other
a shelter tent open on the sides. That
the tenting material of revolutionary
days was good stuff is proved by the
excellent condition of these tents,
which sheltered the great commander
through all his severe campaigns.
Here also i s Washington's uniform,
worn by him when he gave up his
commission commander-in- chief OF
the army, at An napolis. in 1888. 1t
consists of big hadbelly coat of blue
broadcloth, lined and trimmed with
soft buckskin and ornamented with
broad, fiat brass buttons; buckskln
waistcoat and breeches. The size OF
the garments (which are in state OF
excellent preservation testify to the
big statute of the Father OF His
