COMMON MISUSE OF WORDS
Modern Writers, in Striving for Ef.
feet, Displease the Lover of
Good English.

Those who find neyer-ending
pleasure in reading the works of Cold
smith, Addison, "Roilicking Dick"
Steele and our own genial Irving must
suffer something like literary nausea
in turning over the pages OF some
modern newspapers in quest OF news.
Why should the society editor insist
that a wedding occurred" instead OF
taking place? But this abuse OF the
word seems venial when we turn to
the sporting page and find thai every
event recorded from a dog fight TO a
running race is CLASSY 1t may be
assumed by some critics that this
word flashed upon the sporting fra
ternity as a great prize through the
revival of the Olympic games Creek
authors wrote books now known as
classics, and by the same token their
athletic games obtained like desig-
nation. But why should a prizefight
he called "classy?" Probably the
word is slangy equivalent OF high
class" At any rate, it is as illegiti-
;aate and offensive as tbrainy."
But the Offending Is not confined to
the editors OF sporting pages. To go
through the catalogue of misused
words would far exceed the limits of
any editorial article. Yet one can
hardly leave the subject without re-
cording solemn protest against the
phrase armed with warrant" or
he aeronaut who negotiates trip"
around the aerodrome. And one would
like to add that inaugnrate, which
means to induct in office, does not
happily characterize the running OF q
new railroad train or the opening sale
of autumn millinery.
The colleges of America are doing
good work in their departments of
English literature to prevent the wan
ton misuse and abuse of our magnifi-
cent language, but the education
should begin in our grammar schools,
where the great majority of our chill
dren receive their only education.

accom- a3iatoas for large crowd W no

High !5ehool has never yet contested
without carrying off s9me of the honors
We hope a large crowd viii 60 over from

the splendid debate at the preliminary

The spelling contest was held in the
assembly room on Monday Marvel Larson
"spelled down the school, receiving pret-
tygold medal, which was presented by
Prof Neupert. This is branch of study
which has been much neglected of late
years. Fifty years ago the spelling bees
were the regular custom, not only in
rural districts, but also in towns and
cities, and rs result every one were
good spoilers. 1t is astonishing how
many simple words are mis-spelIed in our
schools to1ay and more attention should
be given to this subject which is one Of
the most important in common school
education.

Waters to Rise Over Banks,
Doing $1,000, Damage

BUFFALO. n. Y. April 1.-THE
voice of Niagara was mute today for
the second time in the memory of man.
The river is frozen solid from bank to
bank
Wednesday the worst gale of the
season was recorded. The solid ice
fields of Lake Erie We're churned from
end to end and piled in a huge mass at
the lower end of the lake.
At Niagara Falls there had been
heavy ice bridge in the pool below the
cataract since the middle of the win
ter. Under the impact of the ice of
the lake above and the added foes
brought through by the wind the
bridge gave way and began to surgel
down the rapids. But before IT could
win freedom in Lake Ontario the wind
shifted to the north. Instantly the
moving foes packed at the mouth Of
the river. The pack froze steadily and
each hour brought added pressure from
above
Unable to traverse its natural cham
nels the level of the river rose quickly.
The highest floor level recorded in
previous years is % feet above the
normal. Friday night the river was
40 feet above normal. Water poured
over the window sills of the power
house of the Ontario power company
and flooded the machines. The tracks
of the Great Gorge route were COW
cred from the lower steel arch bridge
to Lewiston.
Conservative estimates place the
damage at s1,00O,000. All day long
a constant stream of visitors poured
down the railway tracks, the trolley
tracks, packed the trains and the cars
and even rode and walked cross coun-
try to see sight that is not likely to
repeat itself within the present gen.
