Groups.

A MULTIPLICITY OF TERMS.
It is very curious fact that the English
language has a separate word to desig-
nate nearly every kind of beast or bird
In groups. Some of these distinctive
terms are used by few except sportsmen
or naturalists, but the majority of them
are more or less familiar in common
speech, especially where groups of the
different animals are found We suppose
that the use of each one of these diff
fe, ent words was originally founded on
some reason, genealogical, geological or
pathological, but it would take much
TO ascertain these reasons. Herewith is
q table which shows in brief space the
most Of the different terms given to
various classes Of animals:

NOT FOR TITLES
Countess Frenfanellio-Cebo,w who is Wis
iting in this country, has told a Chicago
reporter the reason why American girls
marry foreigners. Heretofore 1t has
been supposed that titles had something
to do with the case, but the countess
says that it is not so-that American
girls choose foreigners simply because Of
the superior culture of European men.
This plain talk will doubtless set Amer
lean young men inquiring as to the par
ticular faults of the homemade brand
of culture. 1t has been supposed hither-

genuine manliness would outweigh any
mere veneer of studied politeness or the
superfcialities that come from education
in a foreign capital. But of course this

Durbin tonight refused to grant
the requisilion for the return to
Kentucky for former Gov. Tay-
lor and Chas. w. Finley, who
were indicted by Kentucky courts
for completely in the murder of
Gov. VIM. Goebel.
Gov. Durbin bases refusal on
the ground that fair trial could
not be ha', for the men under the
indictment. He says that if the
acquisitions were honored he
''would be only aiding the deter
mination of the prosecution to
convict those men without any
reference to law, justice or fact.
| cannot cause a man from whom
the presumption Of innocence
should never be stripped, except
by legal methods, to be subjected

his ''monstrous rulings and in

hoped "the court would remem-
ber It's obligations ~ \ Judge

The President Will Attend on
Lincoln Day, Feby. 10.

Charleston, Nov. 2 -Advices
received from Washington tonight
convey the very gratifying intel
ligence that the president has ac-
cepted the invitation of the South
Carolina Interstate and West
Indian exposition to attend the
exposition on Wednesday, Feb.
18th, Lincoln's birthday, and
preparations will he made here to
celebrate the event with the most
imposing ceremonies. At the
meeting of the cabinet yesterday
the president mentioned the fact
that the invation had been extend
ed and the matter was fully dis
cussed, the members of the cabi-
net agreeing with tho president
that the date suggested for the
presidents visit was exceptionally
appropriate for presidential Wis
it. Before leaving Washington the
special committee from the expo
sition called on the members of
the cabinet and extended to each
of them personal invitation to ac-
companr the president to Char
lesion. 1t is understood that Mrs.
Roosevelt and all the ladies of the
cabinet will attend the exposition
with the presidential party, and
it is hoped that the condition OF
the public business will be such
as to permit the president and hi.
party to spend some days at til,
