The Word "IRONv."

"Row" is one Of the many words
which are rising to responsibility with
advancing age. Todd's edition Of John
sons dictionary Q920 denounced it as
"a very low expression" Since it ap
pears to have been occasionally written
''roue" about century ago some have
wished to find it's origin in the French
"roue." Todd Identifies it with the
older "rouse," a drunken bout, big
drinking glass or big drink, in which
sense that word several times occurs In
Shakespeare. Hamlet observes that
"the king doth wake tonight and takes
his rouse" Row" is supposed to be q
false singular formed from "rouse,"
mistaken for a plural, as pea" for
''pease," sherry" from "sherris," !"
cherry from "cheris." But it seems
simpler to explain ''row'' as short for
''row-de-dow." an excellent word for
noise

Chautauqua on School Ground.

1t is probable that the high school
grounds will be secured for the com
ing Chautauqua.
The location of the high school cam
pus is such that it is especially desir-
able as a place to install the Chautau-
qua attractions.
Being close in and yet far away
from the business part of the city,
it is at once convenient of access and
quiet enough to be immune from dis
turbance by heat, noise or dust.
Nearly all the members of the
school board have been seen and ex-
press themselves as being in favor
of allowing the use of the grounds
for Chautauqua purposes. \ meeting
will be held tonight for the purpose
of taking formal action in regard to
it.

CHURCHES TO CELEBRATE.
Sc eral Golden Anniversaries Will
Soon Be Held at Clinton

Clinton. Ia. Jan. 10.--C'linton will be
Che scene of several important church
gatherings i'll the coming two years, in
:idental to the golden anniversaries of
the founding of nearly II dozen of the
local churches societies. Several con-
gregations have ALREADY begun to ar
range for these events which will be
held late in the year 1906, and during
tho spring and summer of 1907.
Clinton MAS fifty years old last sum-
Iner. and soon after the laying out of
the citys streets came the church and
gospel. The Presbyterian society was
organized in the fail of 1856, the Epis-
ropnlian i'm the latter part of the year
1855. the Methodist church was planned
in the early part of 1856, and the Con-
sregational and Baptist churches in the
Same year. The first Catholic church
was built in the spring of 1857, but a
mission had existed here fifteen years
prior to that time.
The Lyons churches We're founded
from five to ten years before those at
clinton, the old town of Lyons, now a
portion of Clinton city. having been
founded several years before Clinton
was thought of. The Congregational
society WAS the first organized i'm that
town, and dating back to the year
1876.

II O'Clock last night.
Reports this morning are to the effect.
that the dead were from prominent
families in the town. The landslide oc-
CURED at the end of Rock Island
street. and eight houses We're carried
over ii clay bank into the brick cxca-
vations, dropping down 100 feet.
caused by the fact that those working
in the brick yards dug too close to the
end of the street.
Most OF the people We're in bed when
the catastrophe took place. Immedi-
ately after the slide the houses caught
fire and the persons who went down
persisted in the flames it is believed.
At 2:45 o'clock this morning the fire
was still burning, and it was practice
ally impossible to ascertain definitely
the number of dead.
The great slip of clay carried away
the water main which supplied the fire
hydrants, and when the firemen arrived
at the scene they found no water with
which to extinguish the blaze in the
ruins of the houses which had been
so suddenly sent over the bank.
The missing include:

thus of him. in the World Today. for

half witted man. who reads nothing,
knows nothing, and spends his life il,
terror have been told that he was a
perNous wreck. that his hair had turned
gray, and that his face was taggard
with wrinkles plowed by care. He has
been represented as false. treachcrous.
cunning and heaven knows what. So
the old hag. Rumor. spins her spider
web OF calumny round the person IF
the emperor until the czar. to many or
his subjects and the outside world. has
completely disappeared and been re-
placed by kind of mythical monster
who is only saved from being a hob
goblin by tho consciousness that he is
impotent TO harm The people who
say these things and the still greater
number who believe them will be
somewhat rudely surprised when the
douna releases Nicholas H. from his
prison house and restores him to his
proper place as the cZartribune of
loyal and self-governing people.
There is not a word of truth in tho
popular legend as to the physical!
weakness or nervous prostration of the
emperor. 1t was six years since had
seen him. And such six years! But
when he greeted me at Peterhof only
a few weeks since. he did not seem to
have aged a day since hade him good
by at Tsarkoe Selo on the eve OF The
Hague conference in 1899. His step
was as light. his carriage as erect. his
expression as alert. His brow bore
no lines Of haggard care. could not
see gray hair on his head. His spirits
were as high. his courage as calm. and
his outlook as cheerful as ever. The
eve of the greatest victory OF his reign.

exactly the same. He might simply
