Christmas with Mrs. Humans parents

John Roth fell from the gang way
of an engine on which he had been
working one night last week. He was
rendered Unconscious by the fall and in
some unknown way fell into the pit
under the engine where he lay for
about one and half hours before he
ives found. He has apparently escaped
with nothing more serious than bad
ly bruised head and thorough chill
ing caused by lying so long in a wet
pit.
Frank Mcpherson is again master

HOW TO SPELL "eURNs."
The True Patronymlc Of the Great
Scotch Poet.

The True Patronymlc Of the Great
Scotch Poet.
In the review of Mr.. Millar's Liter
airy History of Scotland" in the Spec
tator of Sept. IL the writer says:
THE father of Burns spelt his name,
not Burns or Burness, but
'Burnes.'"
There is, | think, ample evidence TO
the contrary, as appears from the fol
lowing facts: When a certain Walter
Campbell moved from Argyllshire TO
Glenberyle in the Mearns (Kincar-
dinshire) early in the seventeenth cen
fury he assumed the name Of Burn
house or Burmese. From him the
fourth in descent was William Bur
ness, the father OF the poet.
The family Bible records the mar
rage of William BurDess and Agnes
Brown" in 1857, and | myself copied
the name Of William Burmese" from
the old gravestone in Alloway kirk
yard more than forty years ago, which
has since been replaced by a new one.
The poet always signed himself
Robert Burmese" in his letters for
about two years after his fathers
death in 1884 the last extant letter
with that signature being one adj
dressed to Mr. Aiken, April 8, 1880.
After this date he appears to have
adopted the spelling with which we
are all familiar, Robert Burns" -

Humble Heroes.

When statues are erected to mill
tary heroes, It is generally to success
full generals. In France the idea has
been realized Of commemoratlng in
marble even the exploits OF indiyidu-
ais Of the rank and file. One such
case is that Of Sergt Robillot, to
whom a monument has Just been
erected, and the town Of Tulle has
now followed the example by voting a
municipal monument to Sergt. Lowry
who fell while leading a few French
soldiers against more than 200 Arab
in Algeria.
