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 of 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
his ship until he could make sure of
his position, not knowing into what
strange regions he might have wan
dered. About the same time the sea-
coast around Kurrachee was covered
by vast shoals of dead fish. hundreds
of tons, which had to be removed to
prevent pestilence.-NewY York Even

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 Enghshman
left the following item in his will:
TO the amendinge of tne 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 a Scand1.
navian word meaning 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 the modern sense traces its
origin. AT any rate, etymoogists at
firm that the derivation from the name
of Benjamin Outram, who improved
rail tracks about 1900, is absurd.
Ihat 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 tne 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 we,
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
spelled in the Dutch manner, though It
is provincial English.-Chicag Daily
News.

The Union Jack.

flag is called the Union Jack" Do
you know why? Two hun tired and
ninety-fve years ago Great Britain's
flag made its first appearance. James
added the Scottish cross of st. An
drew, in consequence of differences
having arisen between English and
Scottish ships at sea. Thus the
''union" idea is accounted for. James
signed his name Jacques" and 1t is
thought that this originated the term
Jack" Others content that 1t is
from the Spanish word for coat,
"Jaco." Knights wore little coat or
jacket over their armor. which bore
the distinguishing marks Of the flag
upon it.
