NOT THE SAME NAMES.
"oAenclature Tor Birds In England
and America Is Not at ALI
the Same.

In reviewing a. book about beasts
and Birds in America" the London
Spectator warns English readers
against the confusion that may arise
IN their minds by the application of
the same name to different birds in
England and the United States. 1.-THE
consequence" it remarks, "is that the
critical English schoolboy who reads
OF robins pecking wicked squirrel
CMeeko) to death will perhaps toss
the book away as Observation-Disclosures
less he is a reader of Wendell Holmes,
and remembers the allusion to the
day when young Americans were mis-
led by the English books with local
color not fitting the new country. In
the books that came from Engla nd the
robin was little domestic bird that
Ted at table instead Of great fdgety,
jerky, whooping thrush"
But the whooping thrush (Tardus
migratorious) of North America had,a
red breast like the robin of England,
and so the name was given to him,
and it was mob of whooping thrush
es. and not robin redbreasts, that did
"Meeko," the mischief maker to death:
And so, it may be added. the ancient
misunderstanding and controversy be-
tween English and American tourists
at the Atlantic liners tables as to
what IS partridge, a. pheasant, a
grouse, ETC., will go on to the end of
time.

CENTURY OF PATENT ISSUES.
Beginning July 81, 100, the Number
Granted In This Country Has
Been 42S, ,O21.

The census bureau lately issued a
report dealing with the cooperative
relation of patented inventions to
manufactures, which shows that New
York, though third in population and
patent rank for the first decade of
the 100 years has since been first in
both. as we'll as manufactures. IT. is
an interesting fact, in considering
the list OF states presented in the
report, that the manufacturing rank
OF state as a rule approximates it's
patent rank, says the New York
Sun. The report says:
The first patent granted by the
general government was to Samuel
Hopkins. July 81, 1890, for an i'm
provement in pot and pearl ash
manufacture. The last patent grant
ed for the year 1889, at the close of
the first 100 years of patent issnes.
was to Wilhelm Dreyer. December
81 1889, for an electromagnetic
typesetting machine. These two pat
ents are snggestively symbolical of
the progress of the century in in
ventlon and manufactures--the first
akin to the primitive Industries of
new country and the last serving
the exacting demands of highly or
ganized industrial system. The total
number of patents issued during this
century OF invention was 42s.621."
A feature of the report is the
steady growth shown in the number
OF patents granted to citizens of for
eign countries.

Ancient Skyscrn y e.rn. i

' - ~
Nnraerou* fl:cting estimates have
been made Of. the height of the tower
OF babel, but one fact never has been
denied, and that is that it was sky
scraper. St. Jerome, in his commen-
tary on Isaiah. says that the tower
was already 1000 PAGES high when God
came down to stop the work. A pace
is about 2A feet; therefore 1000 PAGES
must be 10000 feet; consequently Ba-
bel was 20 times as high as the Pyra-
mids (Which are only about 500 feet).
Father Calmet says the tower was 81, :
900 feet high, and that the languages
were confounded because the: archi-
tects were confounded, as they did
not know how to bring the building
to head. Moreover, it is understood
that the Chinese language of to-day
was originally the same language as
the high German,

suggest the word "automaniac,"
