The stock pot should be made with n

ORIGIN OF TITLES.

Lieutenant is French for place-hold-
er. He serves in place of another, TAX
ing the place of his superior when oc
casion demands.
Colonel is from the medieval Latin
coronella, dfN1nutive of columna, a
column. A colonel was an officer who
marched at the Lead of the column.
Until recently sergeant was held to
be from the Persian sarjank, a sub
ordinate officer. thus being the only
one of our military titles not traceable
to Latin source.
The lowest and the highest Of the
officers of a company bear titles de-
rived from the same word. Captains
and corporals are, therefore. head men.
The word from which captain is i'm
mediately derived is the medieval
Latin capitaneus, a head man. Ger
carry the same idea.
A major was once a captain mai jor,
or superior captain, just as now the
highest noncommissioned officer is a
sergeant major. The captain was long
ago dropped from the compound title
and the major alone retained. A gen
eral was one whose command was over
the army in general. From general
officer the title came to be simply gen.
eral.
Most of the navy titles that differ
from army titles explain themselves.
Ensign is an old title obsolete in the
land forces, but still preserved in the
navy. Admiral comes to us from the
Spanish, who borrowed it from the
Arabic amiralbarrh, commander at
sea. Commodore is a corruption of the
Spanish and Portuguese commenda-
dor, knight, commander, SO our
two highest naval titles come from the
despised I5erian peninsula.
Wanted to Bottle the Baby.
The naturalist's wife had gone out
for few minutes and left the baby in
charge of her absent-minded husband.
When she returned she was not little
disturbed to discover the baby crying
dismally, and it's father, with a collec-
tion of his largest bottles OF alcohol be-
fore him, evidently at his wits end.
"Why, David, David!" cried the good
woman, snatching up the child, "what
is the matter?" "Well, my dear" re-
sponded the great naturalist, simply,
gazing at the baby, "it's very strange,
bu, can't find bottle large enough to
hold him "nywhere."

His Action in the Case of the Orphans
Home at Normal.

Springfield. Ills, Sept. 2O-The state
mentS published recently concerning
Governor Tanners attitude on the
question Of labor employed on the new
hospital at the Soldiers Orphans home
at Normal have not fully stated said
attitude. Papers over the state have
recently published articles stating that
organized labor lad u grievance
against the governor and that the eX-
Ccutive council of the Bloomington and
Normal trades assembly sent ii protest
to Governor Tanner, To which he re
piled that the contracts We're let by the
trustees of the institutions: that he had
not been consulted; that if he had been
consulted he could have done no more
than TO recommend the employment of
unionists. and that he had no power to
cancel or annul any contract let by the
trustees.
The governor also said that he had
recommended in this case that the truS-
tees favor union labor. The law pro-
videS that the trustees must let the
contract to the lowest responsible bid
der. He takes it for granted that this
was done.
