 In some instances the names of special forms of carriages are derived from the titles of the persons who intro duced them. The brougham was first used by the famous Lord Brougham, and William w. who was originally the Duke of Clarence, gave the latter name to his favorite conveyance.
 The popular hanson derives its name from its introducer. MT. Hansen; and the tilbury, at one time very fashion able twa-wheeled vehicle, was called from sporting gentleman of the same name.
 Landau, a city in Germany, was the locality in which was first made the style of vehicle bearing that name.
 Sulky, as applied to a wheeled con- veyance. had it's origin in the fact that when it first appeared the person who saw it considered that none but a sulky, selfish person would ride in such an affair, which afforded accommoda- tion to but one individual. The strange title has never changed.
 Coupe is French in origin, being de- rived from the verb couper (coopay,) to cut. This was considered an appropriate designation, because it greatly re- sembled a coach with the front part cut off.
 The old-fashioned gig was given that name form it's peculiar jumping and rocking motion, the word being taken from the French gigue, signifying jig, or lively dance.-Kansas City Star.

BURNING QUESTION.

Oh dear, is there going to be another coal strike? is the exclamation which is being made and the question which is being asked in thousands of homes where the last one is still vividly re- membered. The answer to the question cannot be given until June 15, when a joint convention of miners will be held at Pottsville for the purpose of deter mining whether or not a general sus- pension of work shall be declared.
 The miners have made statement and the operators have made state ment. and it needs a Philadelphia law yer to make the case plain: and per- haps it would puzzle him. President Fowler of the New York, Ontario and Western railroad, is quoted as saying: T think the situation is very much ex- aggerated." It is to be hoped that he is right, and that peace may be soon way ing her white wings over the black coal district. But if she isn't one thing is certain. and that is that there will be precious little sympathy with the min CTS if they make more such trouble as there was last year. The people will not concern themselves much with the fine points of the controversy if it is reopen ed. They want coal and they will say so with as much emphasis as crowd of students displays in demanding mu- sic of band.

MORE TROUBLE IN FRANCE.

The Paris correspondent of the Lon- don Times. in review of the present political situation in France, says that the conflict between Church and State is becoming more acute daily, and that the extremists on both sides are mak- ing moderate counsels impotent If it had not been for the futile resistance of the religious orders, he says, and the vain attempt of the bishops to arouse a popular agitation against the Ministry and the Parliamentary majority, their most active opponents would have fail- ed to secure anything more than pla- tonic approval of their demand for the denunciation oe the Concordat. The joint efforts of the religious orders and of the majority of the episcopate, head ed by the Archbishop of Paris and three
 other Cardinals, seem, he adds. to have created new situation which must nec-

Students at the University of Mel bourne have always held the record for rowdyism on the southern side of the equator, but they surpassed all their previous performances at a late confer ment of degrees. They took possession of the dais and reveled in cake-walk. They fixed an alarm clock under the chanceIlor's chair and it went off in the middle of the speech of the governor of the state. A young woman and g. young man came up together to re- ceive the degree of bachelor of science and were saluted with such embarrass- ing cries as Produce the ring" and kiss the bride" the wedding march being whistled in chorus as they re- tired.
