Year Of Natural UpheavaIs.

The present year is likely to be re-
markable for the number OF its vol
canic disturbances, not only on land
but in different parts of the deep sea.
Vast tidal waves have been reported
from different quarters of the globe,
and the recent terrible earthquake in
northern India has now been followed
by startling marine phenomenon in
the Indian ocean. Captain Bolton of
the British steamship City Of Dundee,
which arrived recently at Kurrachee,
reported that While he was almost 100
miles OFF the port the surface of the
ocean was illuminated for some time
in all directions by mysterious flashes,
which proceeded. apparently, out OF
the water, and for which he was quite
unable to account. He was so be-
wildered and amazed that he stopped

In one of these quarters, hut of

ORIGIN OF WORDS.

Mr. Dalrymple and all other resi-
dents of Great Britain call street cars
trans. The term is old. Three hun
dred and fifty years ago an Englishman
left the following item in his will:
''To the amendinge of the highwaye or
tram, from the west ende of Bridge
gait, in Barnard castle, 20 shillings."
This tram" was a plank road. Wheth-
er it was the ancestor Of the tram,
of today or merely an genealogical re-
lation is not quite clear. The fore
father of all the trans" was Scandl>
navian word meaning a log. In time
tram in Scotland came to mean a
beam, cart shaft or the cart itself;
and perhaps it is to this rather than to
the tram" that was a plank in a los
road that tne modern sense traces its
origin. At any rate, etymologists at
firm that the derivation from the name
of Benjamin Outram, who improved
rail tracks about 1900, is absurd.
That recent international yacht race
calls TO mind that the word yacht,
like many other nautical words in the
English language, is of Dutch origin.
This is natural, since the English
learned the art of seamanship from
those old masters of the sea, the
Dutch Other Dutch words are skip
per-" smack "sloop," reef
BOOM "taffrail" From the Neither
lands come also the words Snug
Cling" and "noy," as in ship ahoy.
When one reads how Lord Nelson was
taken down to the ''orlop' deck to die
at the battle OF Trafalgar one has yet
another term taken from the Dutch.
Schooner" is a word of American
manufacture At Gloucester, Mass,
about 1913 Capt. Andrew Robinson
built tne first vessel called by that
name. AS it slid off the stocks into
the water a bystander shouted: "Oh,
how she scoons!" (skims). Robinson
instantly said: "A schooner let her
be-" The name mas been universally
adopted, but, singularly enough, Is

you know why? Two hundred and
ninety-fve years ago Great Britain's
flag made its first appearance. James

having arisen between English and
Scottish ships at sea. Thus the
union idea is accounted for. James
signed his name Jacques and it is
thought that this originated the term

from the Spanish word for coat,
"Jaco." Knights wore little coat or

Multi millionaire Laughlin
Of Pittsburg Mistaken
for a Common Marauder
RIDES IN PATROL WAGON
Too Energetic Detective Ar
rests the Steel Magnate on
His Own Private Grounds
Special Dispatch to The CAN.

PITTSBURG, April 26.-James B.
Laughlin, treasurer Of the Jones &
Laughlin Steel Company, a prominent
society and club man and at least a
five-t time millionaire, was arrested early
this morning, as he was about to en-
ter his palatial home at Center avenue
and Neville street. by Philip Rimling-
er, detective, who failed to recognize
him and supposed he was a burglar.
In spite of Laughlin's protestations
and his efforts to prove his identity,
he was taken to the police station, a
mile distant. in patrol wagon and
locked up in cell with a pickpocket
and a common drunk, where he was
compelled to remain until this morn
ing. During his incarceration Laugh
lin offered to write his personal check
for any amount UP to 100000 and de-
posit it for his appearance, but he was
only laughed at by the sergeant.
Last night Laughlin drove to the
Duuuesne Club, where he was delayed
until after midnight, when he started
for home in his carriage. Several
acres of ground surround Laughlin's
home and he alighted from his car
rage at the corner of Neville street
and Center Avenue, intending to walk
down to the gate and thence through
the grounds to the mouse.
Just as he reached the gate Of his
house Laughlin was accosted by Rim
linger, who demanded to know where
he was going. Laughlin replied that it
was none of Rimlinger's business,
whereupon the officer seized him by
the collar and told him he was under
arrest. Laughlin tried to explain and
told the officer that he was the owner
of the place. He said that if the de-
tective would accompany him to the
door he would prove his identity. But
all the satisfaction that the millionaire
got was that he could explain that to
the sergeant. He was then taken in
q patrol wagon to the station, where
the sergeant ordered him locked up in
a cell, denying him the use of the tele-
phone or other means of communicat-
ing with his friends.
This morning Laughlin WAS taken
before Justice Negley, charged with
being a suspicious person and with
disorderly. conduct after having been
placed under arrest. After the magis-
trate heard the evidence he discharged
the millionaire.
