THE NAME MIDDLE

How far are you going" asked my
fellow traveller, as we came across the
ST. Gotthard. ITO Paris,'' 1 replied.
He looked puzzled. Then l recollected
that he was an Italian, and that he
had told me he had never been out OF
Italy before. "Parigl," 1 said, smiling,
and he knew at once what l meant.
Then 1t occurred to me to mention
London to him and see If he under
stood He obviously did not. "Londra,"
l translated. "Ahl Londra." he repeat
ed; "yes, yes" Here were two of us
journeying together across Europe in
an age which is supposed to have bro
ken down the barriers that once him
dered free intercourse, yet we were not
even agreed as to the names of the
principal places on our route.
He called Milan, Milano; Florence,
Firenze: Turin, Torino; Naples, Ma
poll. For Basic he said Basilea, and
Lucerna for Lucerne (Which the Swiss
themselves call Luzerin, pronouncing
the"z" like ts).
Stop a moment, though. When
say he called Florence, Firenze, and so
on, am laying myself open to miscon-
ception and the charge of insular inso-
lence. Rather should 1 put 1t that we
English call Firenze Florence, just
as we call Padova Padua and Livorno
Leghorn. We cannot even give the
Eternal city its proper beautiful name.
Instead of Roma we say Rome, which
is only trifie better than the Germans,
who deep down in their throats grunt
out ROM"
The Germans are very bad offenders
in this matter of miscalling places, for
they give them often such cacophonous
equivalents as one would never think
of connecting with the real name. The
first time I went to Italy 1 let the
train leave Bellinzona without me.

POPULAR SONG PROVES
TOO MUCH FOR LOSER
Vanquished in Betting Bout, In
censed by Negroes Melody

NEW YORK, . y 16.-Had George
Gray, a negro chauffeur, been able to
restrain himself when he was tempted
to burst forth in song yesterday the
village of Bloomfield would have
missed the most pleasing entertain
ment 1t has seen since the Swedish bell
ringers were there last winter.
Fortunately for Bloomfield, and at
the same time unfortunately for George
Gray, the negro preferred to lift his
voice He found his opportunity while
Arthur Springfield, white chauffeur,
was paying a bet.
Gray bet that Johnson would beat
Jeffries and had stipulated that il
Johnson won Springfield was to wheel
him Gray through the principal
boulevards of Bloomfield in a Wheel
barrow
That part of it was all right. Mo-
body in Bloomfield objected when they
saw Sprinfield wheeling Gray in the
wheelbarrow and Gray, had he con-
Quoted himself with an eye to the pro-
prieties, would have had an experience
about which he could have told his
friends.
He lost his chance of being a hero by
making the serious mistake of letting
his feelings get the better of his judg-
ment. When Springfield landed him in
the middle of the town Gray, unable
to keen his emotions in leash, footed
an automobile horn and began to sing
"Ive Got a White Man Working for
Me"
Somebody then dumped a pailful of
bad eggs over Gray's head and other
persons belted him enthusiastically in
the shins. BY the time he was ex-
tricated from the angry assemblage
he was willing to apologize for being
alive. AS a special favor he was per-
mitted to wheel Springfield the loser
of the bet back to the garage.

nue., Flushing He has purchased and
furnished pretty villa at Crocheron

there that he soon will take his bride.

than Stewart, and her name until June
% last was Mrs. Lydia Worth. Stewart
is her third husband. Stewards first
wife died three years ago at the age of
eighty-four. Mrs. Worth was living in
rather lonely fashion in rooms at No.
AZ Madison avenue. She arranged to
take her meals in Mrs. McKenna's
house, and she and Stewart became
friends They said nothing of their in
tention to marry. After midday dinner
on June % they went to Jersey City
and were there married by the Rev.
Thomas Y. Spencer. They got back in

yesterday when Stewart had the Bay
side cottage all ready for occupancy,
that the marriage became known. The

The foregoing is a picture of the In
dependent Order of Forester Emer-
gency hospital service tent which was
in active operation at Long Beach on'
the Fourth. BY permission of the city
council of Long Beach, and with the
cooperation of the city and police Of
ficials, this tent was erected at the
entrance of the big pier, and during
the busy day took care of more than
dozen accidents, such as usually
occur in the celebration of the birth
day of the nation by the thousands
that flocked to the beach on that day.
The hospital was fully equipped in
every respect, and the surgeons and
nurses of the order were on duty all
day until late that night This was
done as a demonstration of the class of
work that is done by the Foresters, and
was free to all. The Foresters have
these hospital tent outfits that can be
packed and folded into a small space
and can be carried on autos If neces-
sary, and are at all times ready to be
forwarded at short notice to any part
of the state in case of epidemic or
catastrophe. They are intended to
supplement the work of the regular
hospital and surgical service of the
order and to be used in cases of local
tiles that are not in reach Of the reg
ular hospital service in the country
and smaller towns. Its practicability
was forCibly shown on the occasion of
the Fourth, and thousands of members
and visitors commented favorably on
this unique work of practical frater-
