The American Voice.

From the London Chronicle.
I think myself that what. as much as
anything else laid the foundation OF the
American voice was the nervous i'll
health, lasting over three or four genera
lions. of the American woman. Up to tho
middle OF the nineteenth century. and
even beyond. foreigners were surprised
when they came across a healthy-look-
ing woman. The isolation of frontier life.
the general tension of the American ell
mate. malaria. bad diet and worse SANTA
ton combined to turn one-half the ma
ton into sem-invalids: and the thin,
sharp. slovenly staccato tones of the
American women were as often as not the
result of physical and nervous depression.
/ do not say that ill-health was the sole
cause, but 1t is undoubtedly the fact that
as the health Of Americans has improved
SO have their voices.

A good-sized shell Of the paper nau-

that there was a general idea that the
word brandy was derived from the Ger

as old as it's continental equivalents. II
was formerly spelled "brandywine'' and
then "brand-wine.'' The prefix which
was common to all the Teutonic words
for brandy meant a thing burning or
that had been burnt. Therefore the word
meant burnt wine Taking 1t as an
English word, brandy might be defined az

BEER BOTTLE DUEL
STOPPED BY POLICE
SUIT OF CLOTHES AND PAIR OF
SHOES WERE STAKES
Deputy District Attorney Listens to
Troubled Story and Finally Tells
Combatants to "Go
In Peace"

The sound of breaking beer bottles
led the occupants of the rooming house
at 49S California street to believe
murder was being committed in one OF
the rooms, and when the police broke
into the room where the disturbance
was they found Martin Abeytia and his
wife, Irena Abeytia, engaged in throw
ing beer bottles at each other.
According to the story to the deputy
district attorney, Abeytia, after Vio-
lent with his wife yesterday morning,
announced his intention of leaving. She
demonstrated with him, and finding
that he was intent on leaving her de-
manded that he return suit of clothes
and q pair of shoes which she declares
she bought for him. He refused to re-
turn the articles because\ he was wear
ing them.
A more violent quarrel then resulted
and empty beer bottles were used 10
emphasize the statements of the dis
putants. Abeytia was struck on the
head and sustained a slight scalp
wound, and Mrs. Abeytia suffered
laceration on her finger.
After discussing the matter from all
points of view and owing to the fact
that no one wanted to swear to com
plaint against the couple, Alexander
ordered the Abeytias to move from
their rooms and to avoid further quar-
relS,
