Moments With Deficiencies.

Many an interesting hour may be
spent in the company of a good die
tionary. 1t should tell you that
kings were in the earlier times mere
ly fathers of families" while queen
meant at first wife" or mother"
An earl was an "elder," pope was the
same as papa" and car and kaiser
both meant Caesar" Lord is the
Anglo Saxon hluford, meaning
'1oof distributor" 'Huzzy" was
once a respectable housewife, knave
was simply boy and "caitiff' meant
a captive. From the name of the
laborer on the villa of an old time
Roman gentleman we get the name

a countryman, while varlet is the
same word as valet. Our students

CENTER FOR
NAVAL STORES
BELIEVED THAT JACKSONVILLE
WILL SOON TAKE LEAD IN
THIS IMPORTANT BUSI-
NESS.

The Jacksonville Metropolis says:
That Jacksonville is going to be the
head center of the naval stores bust
ness is believed in Savannah, notwith.
standing the efforts to pooh pooh this
idea by the parties who are interested
in keeping the business in Savnnah.
This belief in Jacksonville was
evinced yesterday by the visit of a
representative of one Of the largest
buyers of naval stores, who came to
look over the ground, and The MetrOp-
oils is reliably informed that he ex-
pressed himself as satisfied that Jack
sonville was going to be the naval
stores market of the world, and pre-
liminary arrangements We're made to
locate here, so as tobe "Johnny-on-the-
spot"
This straw shows which way the
wind is blowing.
The naval stores operators here are
going to win in this fight, for all con.
ditions favor Jacksonville as an open
market. In less that eight months
there will be twenty-four feet of water
here, and in the meantime we now
have twenty feet, and a depth OF
twenty-five feet is expected within
four months.
Mark this prediction: This port is
going to do the naval stores bushes!
Of the world, because this city is the
natural headquarters of the naval
stores industry by its proximity to-the
field Of operations.
Ali that is needed now is for all the
naval stores men to stand together,
for in unity there is strength.

CHOICE MISCELLANY
Niagara Already Ruined.


Niagara falls are already ruined"
says the eminent hydraulic engineer.
Alton D. Adams, in Technical World
Magazine for April Already enough
water rights have been granted by New
York state and Canada to divert all
the water which now, falling over both
the American and the Canadian falls,
makes the great cataract one Of the
natural wonders Of the world. II the
capitalists and promoters who now
hold franchises were all to establish
plants the entire fow Of Niagara river
would be diverted into underground
channels, and the mighty cliffs over
which the torrent now pours IN resist
less grandeur would be LETT rugged and
bald and dry"
Mr.. Adams sees small bSpe in the
proposed treaty between the United
States and Great Britain. He does not
believe that Canada will be a willing
party to any treaty which will cut of
the gEset income it enjoys from leasing
Niagara power. Bis plan is to exca-
vate and deepen the channel leading to
the American fall. which will other
wise run dry long before the Canadian
or Horseshoe falls will be at all af.
fected.

which made it possible for him to
Withstand the bearlike embraces Of

from years Of lacrosse, tennis, socket

NEW PORT ON

PHILADELPHIA CAPITALISTS IN
TEND TO DEVELOP FORT
OF ST. PETERSBURG.

A special to the New York Com
mercial from Philadelphia says:
Capitalists of this city and State
plan to make st. Petersburg, Fla,
one of the most important seaports in
the South Atlantic States. The
town is located on Tampa Bay, which
row has water Is feet deep, sufficient
for all cOastWise vessels. Among
those largely interested in the project
are Jacob S. Disston, Joseph c. Sib-
ley. his sOn-in-law, William e. Heath
cote, and B. F. Measey, recently ap-
pointed cashier of the State Treasury;
F. A. Davis. Geo. B. Candy, DR.. John
B. Shoemaker, Edward T. Davis, VIM.
H Houston, VIM. c. Haddocl1 and
Cyrus S. Detre.
The Atlantic Coast Line is under
stood to be favorable to the project,
and the fact that Mr.. Shelby is inter.
ested AFFORD a suggestion that the
Standard OIL Company may also be
behind the proposition. The idea is
to develop st. Petersburg as a port
for West Indian, gulf and South Amer
lean trade. and to be ready for heavi'
er commerce by the time the Panama
Canal is completed. Government as
slstance will be asked to improve the
naturally fine harbor of Tampa Bay,
Already arrangements have been
made for steamship service to begin
tbs summer from a pier 1900 feet
long at St. Petersburg, which will
either be extended 1000 feet. or else
the ship berthing be dredged nearer
in shore. To Havana the Mckay Line
will operate ships making connection
at Key West with the Mallory Line
from New York. Coastwise steamships
will also operate to Mobile and New
! Orleans this summer.

Why the Doctor Couldn't Go In.

A lady had been i'll and under
medical treatment for a long time.
As she grew no better all the while
she became distrustful of her ply
sician's skill and did not wish to see
him and yet was not bold enough to
tell him so. She communicated her
state of mind to her maid.
"L'ave i'm to me, mum; Pave i'm
to mel" said the girl.
By and by the doctor came to the
door, and Bridget opened it about
an inch.
"Sorry, sir" said she, ''but ye
can't come in the day, dochter."
