Whence Came "Hurrah"?

Some authorities connect "Hurrah''
with a Hebrew shout of joy to Jehovah,
which occurs in the Psalms. Others
derive il from "ThCr aide" war cry
of the ancient Mortimer. Others point
to the Swedish and Danish ''Hurre. 50
and the German "Hurren.' to move
quickly; or the Danish "Hurre,' to
buzz, with which our hurry is assO-
ciated. Sir Francis Palgrave in his
history Of Normandy and England
says: 1T was a wise custom in Nor
mandy. especially by ROllo's decree,
that anyone who had reason to fear
damage of goods. life Cd limb. could
raise the country by the cry of 'Haro';
Has Raoul' justice in Duke Rollo's
name. Hence, or hue and cry The
old English Harrow and our 'Hur-
r2h.' are but variations OF this. There
are some who regard it as merely that

CONCERNING BRIBERY
A View That Will Be Presented in the
hurphey-Price Cases.

A very interesting situation is likely
to be developed in the Price Murphey
cases. 1t will be remembered that five
of the eleven indictments against the
defendants charge them with bribery
in that they accepted money from
various persons for getting work
through the office of the surveyor gen
eral during their inCumbency before
other work which had been presented
earlier. Several OF these persons who
paid the money for the expediting of
their work testified to that fact before
the grand jury and they are relied to
testify TO the same fact before the
trial jury.
1t is understood that the defense
will advance the doctrine that their
must be two parties to every case OF
bribery as there must be two parties
TO a successful quarrel and that both
parties are equal violators of the law.
1t will not of course be admitted by
the defense that there has been a
violation of the law.
Bishop in his work on criminal law
says. and the doctrine has always been
upheld, that LAS it is a crime to take
a bride. it is clearly also crime to
give one for the offenses are recip-
recall"
1t will therefore be the theory of the
defendants that if they have commit
ted a crime many of the most estim-
able gentlemen in the territOSy are
particeps criminis.
Under the definition Of Bishop any
testimony against Mr.. Murphey or Mr.
Price in the bribery cases would be
self incrimirating, the witnesses ac-
completes and subject to the same
Indictment.
1t is certain that none of the gentle
men who have testified before the
grand jury and who are expected tC
testify before the trial jury thought al
the time of the making OF the arrange
ment for the expedition of their work
that there was an irregularity about il
ard certainly no effort was made by
any OF the parties, witnesses. iAof de
PENDANTS, Ic conceal the fact dat sucI
arrangements were being made.

TABLE CENTERPIECES.

The question of pretty centerpieces
for the table. says the Philadelphia
Ledger, is one that always interests
womankind. Good taste has so much
liberty to expend itself in that direc-
ton, and sometimes it seems as though
nothing repays one better than the
careful and artistic arrangement of ia
bic decoration.
The newest centerpieces are now
wrought In ribbon. This sort Of work
is not difficult to those who have any
knowledge OF fancy work. and 1t is
much more quickly done than ordinary
embroidery. Another new idea is to
have the edges of the centerpiece cut
in sharp inward curves and edged with
rufIies so full as to flare prettily up
around the candelabra or other orna-
ments.
A very pretty set of this description
recently noted was of fine white linen,
embroidered with clusters OF margue-
rites in the palest shade of yellow, tied
with bows of shaded blue ribbon. The
flower petals were made of ribbon, and
the centers of the blossoms were in
French knots of filose1le, deeper in col
or. Narrow frills bordered with blue
and yellow baby ribbon bordered this
centerpiece, and the doilies that came
with IL were simple squares similarly
embroidered. On the table boasting
these will be used vases of yellow mar
guerites blended with forget-me-n ots.
Talking of flowers, the blossoms Of
the rhododendron can be very effective
ly employed, either in bowls or distrib-
uted Their cerise color is so brilliant
The suggestion is made that they can
be arranged in the center of the table
in the form of star. At each point of
Il. H. I'LL
and between the candlesticks festoors
of cerise ribbon may depend attached
to each by a bow. The candles should
have cerise shades, and ribbon of the
same color may be employed elsewhere
on the table.
Yet another idea is to fill shallow
bowl with purple iris blossoms, or
flags" as they are popularity called.
Smaller bowls may adorn each corner
Of the table, and from these to the cen
ter ropes of Towering clematis may be
strung.

A "POLLY PIPER"
PORCH PARTY

Porch parties are now the vogue A
clever hostess recently sent out invi-
tations for a Polly Piper" party. The
cards gave no clue to the nature of the
affair. and each guest was left to won

When the guests assembled on the
wide porch they found it set with low
tables and chairs of all sorts and con-
ditions. Gay cushions promised COM

in evidence.
On the small tables an array of clay
pipes was spread, all new and sweet
smelling. Were the fair guests invited
to a smoker? The appearance Of the
hostess, loaded down with sheaves of
tissue and crepe paper of every i'm
aginable shade, with scissors and with
mucilage bottles, relieved their perplex-
ity. When she announced that each
guest must make her own Polly Pr

AND FOR A WEDDING, TOO.

Whether it was a mistake or joke
or simply an example of bad taste is
question, says the New York Press
that is still puzzling most of the pas
sengers. But no matter about that; 1t
certainly was a floral masterpiece. Full
four feet it stood from the ground. in
the form of a cross. Roses white and
roses red composed the body of the
cross, and dainty white blossoms and
green leaves formed the trimmings. In

Everybody in lie car admired the Of

on the floor all leaned forward to ex-

The boy giggled. Nobody t know

THE WEAPONS WOMEN USE.

The weapons with which women
fight their battles. says the New
York Press. have been recorded in
history and on the blotters of the
police stations. The latter records are
probably more veracious; they are
certainly more modern and more like
ly to interest the New York woman
of to-day, who is liable to figure in
scrimmages of her own.
According to those competent au-
thorities women who resort to brute
force to gain their point are partial
TO kitchen utensils. OF that class of
weapons frying pans seem most pop
ular. Fully two-thirds of the domes-
tic bruises which policemen and the
assistant surgeons are required to neal
are inflicted with that plebian cook
ing utensil. 1t has pretty nearly SUI
perseded the historic rolling pin and
poker.
The decline of those two former
favorites is que to the prevalence of
bakeries and gas ranges and steam
heat. The rolling pin no longer plays
the important part in domestic econ
omy that IL once played. hence Il is
seldom on hand as a medium FOR en-
