what made more than one wish to

Growth of lanRunRe.

The Principle of growth in language,
as in all else is variation, And when
the early races felt that yeriation had
been carried far enough within the
limits of the vowel language. rich as it
was in tone .ssd melody, a new direction
for growth WAS unconsciousiy sought.
II was found by adding se4ivowels to
the already existing vowelsSt lat is, by
partially c,os!ng the lips, o, bringing
the tongue near the teeth, Oh palate, or
throat, while the vowels we're being
spoken. This would give words likp
wawawa or yayaya, and ths like, and
SO with other yowels. Let me give Q
few words which still survive from this
epoch, In ro.ynesian, which are rich in
pure vowel words: ahi, aho. hau, hihi;
has haze, wa, wal, which mean fire, light,
wind, ray, breath, envy. expanse, water
all clements or elemental emotions.

SHOOTING OF A DESERTER.


Omaha, Neb., Jan. 12.-The habeas
corpus case of Corporal Fair and Pri-
vate Jockens, of the Tenth infantry,
held for murder in the state courts
for shooting Deserter Morgan, came
up before Judge Munger in the fed
eral court yesterday. United States
District Attorney Summers appeared
for the prisoners. The facts regard
ing the killing are not in controversy,
the question being whether it was
unsuitable From the line of ques-
tioning adopted and the attitude of
the court it is evident that the re-
suit of the case largely hinges upon
whether Morgan was in the act of
escaping when shot or whether the
escape was an accomplished fact and
the soldiers were simply trying to
apprehend deserter. If Morgan was
an escaping prisoner the. Judge indi-
Gated that under military law the
soldiers had right to shoot, even if
not on he military reservation. If
he had escaped the Judge indicated
that it was questionable whether they
had even the right to arrest him, but
should have appealed to the civil au-
thorities, when Morgan was found
outside of a military reservation.
