Tho Busiest street In the World.
West street In New York presents
q network Of piers and docks for Its
whole length. Most Of the great
steamship and railway transportation
companies have their pier terminals
there, and other steamship companies
have built their terminals on the New
Jersey shore opposite. so that all trans
atlantic and large share of the con-
dnental travellers must Cross West
street In coming to or leaving the city.
When one considers the great number
OF short trip travellers, including CON-
muters, who daily make their way In
and out Of the metropolis across this
busy thoroughfare a faint idea of its
importance may be gained. Manhat-
tan Island has thirty-two miles Of wa

A Confusion of Names.

Although Scotia Is now known to
mean s,;ntland, it once was the name
Of Ireland. Two centuries before the
birth Of Christ Ireland was known to
the Greeks as Juvenca. Caesar called
1t Hbern4a, g. did also Ptolemy in his
map Of that island. It Is said the
Phoeniclans first gave Ireland the name
Of Hibernia, meaning thereby utmost
or last habitation," for beyond that
land westward the Phoenicians never
extended their voyages. Toward the
decline Of the Roman empire the coun-
try began to be called Scotia, a name
retained by the monastic writer's until
the eleventh century, when the name
Scotia, having passed to modern Scot
land, the ancient name of Hlbernia be-
gan to be again used.
