ADMIRAL VERNON.
He Invented "Grog" anJ Gave Name
to Washincton's Home.

He Invented "Grog" an5 Gave a Name
to Washinston's Home.
Few Americans are Informed as to
how Mount Vernon, the home Of Wash
ington, received its name.
The unfortunate Duke of Monmouth
had a secretary named Vernon, a pru-
dent. sensible man of business, who,
influential quarters and under William
III. became a secretary of state. He
left Il son. Edward. born in 1854, who,
greatly against his fathers wishes, en-
tered the navy and, serving with dis
tinctiOn, rose to the rank of admiral.
In 1I22 he was elected to the house OF
commons. and having, in July. 1889. de-
clared there that Porto Bello might
be reduced with six sail of the line. he
was sent with a squadron to fulfill his
prediction. On returning home sue
cessful he received the thanks Of both
houses and the freedom of the city of
London. From that time. however. his
star declined. An expedition 10 Car
tagena, made two years later, signally
failed.
1t was in the land force at Cartagena
that Lawrence Washington. Georges
eldest brother by fourteen years. had
served, and apparently he esteemed
Vernon, as he gave his name 10 his
home on the Potomac, and procured a
midshipman'S appointment for George
His mothers interposition ultimately
prevented the boys availing himself of
this appointment.
Vernon's popularity was so great that
his unlucky expedition does not seem
to have affected it. as he was actually
elected to parliament for three places
on his return. Probably his known hos
tility to the government had much to
do with this. In l14J he was detailed
10 watch the North sea, in view Of the
movement Of the pretender'S adher-
ents. The next year serious SQUAD
bic arose between him and the govern
ment. resulting in his producing two
pamphlets that so exasperated the au-
thOritieS that by the kings express
command he was struck Off the list Of
admirals. He died in l1557.
1t was Vernon who brought into use
the custom of mixing water with the
ration of rum, which got the name of
grog from his habit Of wearing 4 gro
gram waistcOat, and hence his nick
name of "Old GrOg" To summarize.
the man who invented grOg is buried
in Westminster abbey. cOmmemOrated

Roman Lamps.

Roman lamps were Of many sizes,
but most Of them very closely resem-
bled what is at present denOminated
sauce or gravy boat. At one end there
was a ring. through which the finger
was passed when the light was carried.
The body of the vessel was filed with
oil, and at the other end there was
small tube. through which a rag wick
was passed. When this was lighted
the smoke and odor of the rancid fat
employed were extremely offensive.
Many Roman poets mention the a6Om-
Unable efIiuvium sent Out by the lamps
at the feasts.
