Pop. .uritx of Er.nl1,n

Benjamin Franklin has received one
sort of monumental tribute to de-
gree second only to that of Washing
ton. More towns and postottices have
been named after him than after any
other man, even Washington himself,
although the bestowal of the name
Washington on the capital Of the coun-
try transcends, of course, any Of the
similar honors accorded to Franklin.
Thirty-six places in the United States,
IN as many states and territories, bear
the name Of Franklin simply, and "a
others bear names into which the word
enters In combination, such as Frank.
linton, Franklinville, Franklin Falls,
and so on. AS against this there are
II Jacksons in the country. 30 Wash.
ingtons and 25 Jeffersons.
Thirty-one counties bear the name of
Washington, "a the name of Franklin
~ the name Of Jefferson and % the
name Of Jackson.
The naming of the first town fol-
Franklin was regarded by him rs 9
great honor. This was in 1878, during
the Revolutionary war. The town OF
Wrentham, Mass, was divided, one
part of it taking the name Of the cele.
brated diplomatist and philosopher. In
recognition Of the honor, Franklin pre.
sented the new town with bell for its
church.-Youth's Companion.

in New York city, while many persons
believe that he escaped on all outward
