ENGLISH TO BE WORLD SPEECH.
All Other Tongues Give Way to Mod
ern Demand for HomeIy Language.

From the Columbia Stately
"homely" we here mean partaking of
the nature of home, and not plain or
ugly. Wordsworth thus speaks of
"the homely beauty of the good old
cause" So often in life we find that
it is the homely, the thing soiled and
perhaps stained with daily use. rather
than the fine thing, the great and the
high thing, that endures. Why? Be-
cause 1t is humanized; its very stains
revealing to all that 1t is fit for daily
use. Affection has touched it, love has
handled 1t, and 1t is immortal.
This principle has often been Illus
trated in history, and it Is being illus
trated every day by one of the most
remarkable phenomena in all history
the endurance of language apparent
ly the least fitted to survive of all the
widely spoken tongues of the human
race. We see that in Japan, in China,
in India, in France, in Germany
throughout the world-people are
learning English. The language that
has no grammar, only mass of ex-
ceptions to every rule and principle of
human speech; a language that has
no system Of spelling. that is unspell-
able, that is harsh, is supplanting the
languages of people that outnumber
the English speakers as four to one,
is driving German from the chancel-
leries. 1t seems vain to devise new
tongues to render intercourse more
facile; they can make no inroads up
on our homely English speech. 1t is
ihomely, and it survives.
All the smooth an beautiful and per-
feet languages pass away. The ex-
quisite idiom Of Iran, or ancient Per-
sia, has lost it's tongue; Arabic, the
most elastic and, in many respects,
the most wonderful of all languages,
lis passing swiftly from desert and tent
and mosque; and Greek, finest of all
Languages, richest in meaning, in
fruits, is spoken in a decadent dialect
lby a decadent people. The hard,
rough languages that crate the tongue
Hike file, that would have made Quin-
lillian stare and gasp, these have some
ichance of survival, and of these the
English is the most uncouth and cha
lotic. 1t will, therefore. endure and it
may yet become the speech OF the
whole civilized world.

at the soft trade winds blowing to-
wards Spain. He damned the ma
chinery working with the precision of
watch and damned Capt. Ybarra for
boasting of his ships progress.
There are several happenings
which delay a steamer-dense fogs,
storms, breaking of shafts or ma.
chinery, but the Patricia seemed i'm
mune from all such incidents.
At breakfast Capt. Ybarra an
nounced with complacency that they
were passing Gibraltar, and that he
expected the following morning to be
very near his home port. Sonora Es-
pinosa sent upward prayer of thanks
giving, and Juanita looked sad. Mr..

directed to the northward that there

were worried, then, like thunderclap,

made Juanita remain in her stateroom
and wore many scapulars.
In the offing of Barcelona the ship
came in his boat and at once went into
the cabin. His diagnosis OF the case
of Lawler was long, then he visited
Majoie. His report was that the
cabin passenger had indigestion, and
the sailor what looked like vomito
The yellow flag went up, and the Pat.
ricia was in quarantine indefinitely.
Never had the bewildered Capt
Ybarra heard of such case of yom.
ito, for, while the doctor came daily.
he seemed averse to pronouncing the
disease vomito. 1t was ever awaiting
developments.

When Lawler hailing a passing boat

that the Trinidad from Madras had ar.
