THOSE AIGRETTES


The aigrt tie problem, which has
been troubling the New York Gus
toms officers, was up again the other
day. The Treasury Department, in
strueting the coll 'ctor at New Or
leans, announced that a certificate of
registration of aigrett ties and similar
plumage by people going abroad can
not serve as a permission to bring
such articles back into the United
States.
Under the newTariff law aigrettes,
on or off hats, are absolutely pro-
hibited from passage through Uni
ted States custom house. The de-
partment also ruled on the question
of fur sealskin garments taken out of
the country and brought back. The
New Orleans collector was advised
that a certificate of ownership of
such garmentsnust be issued by GUS
toms collectors at the port Of depart
ure only after adequate evidence has
been produced to prove that the gar
ments are not made from prohibited
sealskin.

HOW ENGLISH HAS
 OUTGROWN ITS GRAMMAR

A striking characteristic of the Eng fish language is the ability its words possess of passing from one part or speech into another. In the course or it's history, English has been largely stripped of the endings which once characterized different parts of speech Our infnitives no longer end in en, the representative of an earlier an We do not say telIen, still less tellan, but simply tell. Our nouns have discard ed the a or e or u in which many or them terminated originally. Dropa has become drop ende has become s'end'' wudu has become wood" In consequence of the disappearance or the terfninations, words have been re- duced to their root form. Hence they pass with little difficulty from one part of speech into another. This was not so once. Let us take our old, familiar grammatical friend love as an illustration. In Latin it is One in consequence cannot be used for the other. Such transition differ ence of termination completely pre- vents. So in our earliest English speech the noun love was 1ufu, the verb was lufian. Here again one could not be used for the other. But when the substantive ending was dropped from 1ufu and the verbal ending from Iufian, the root 1uf alone remained. That has given us the word love- This can be used indifferently either as a noun or a verb. In both cases the ex- isting final is of no importance. It is a mere nfe1ess survival which has weight only in the conventional spell ing, and nowhere selse.-Professor T. R. Lounsbury, in Harper's Magazine for June.

NEW MOTOR BOAT
 FOR W. E. BURNHAM

One of the prettiest little motor boats that has ever been seen in Bridgeport harbor will arrive in this city some time today unless something untoward occurs The boat which is a Maine cruiser is sailing down the coast from Camden. Maine, from which place it departed Sunday. and is the property of William E. Burnham of S17 Fairfield avenue.
 MT. Burnham who is at the head of the Automatic Machine company of this city, had the little cruiser built during the past winter up in Maine, on the lines of the little cruisers which have made Maine waters famous dur ing the last few years for their motor boats.
 The boat is just Q, trif1e short of 37 feet in length and draws 2 1-2 feet of water It is fitted with cabin in the forward part, the cabin being beautifully finished in polished hard wood with ice box, cooking stove, din- ing table, and sleeping accommoda- tions for four persons.
 The engine was Made in Bridge port" at the plant of the Automatic Machine company and is one of the finest ever put out by the company. It is an IS horsepower engine and will develop enough power to make the little cruiser travel through the water at a goodly rate of speed.
 The craft will be known as the ssHattie II'' and MT. Burnham expects to get a lot of pleasure out of the boat during the coming motor-ooa season

A CLEARING HOUSE
 FOR JOBS AND MEN.

In the English Labor Exchanges listed situations are either filled di- rectly by the agency in which they are filed, or, lacking the proper appIi- cantS, they are put ttin circulation.'' .'' Every trade has it's number and deci- nal divisions. On the application card a cipher uniformly used by the ex- changes records the last week the man had, the job he wants now, his age, the employers he has been sent to- swhether taken on, how long retainetl, and the general impression he makes Usually the steady and efficient men applicant are filed under the same trade number in separate boxes on diff ferently colored cards. Instant ref erence can be made for either side. This simple device, being universal, enables the number wanted to be wir- ed to the central office and sent out to the branches. When he is located, the reply can briefly present the char acter of the applicant. In case of need this man is furnished with a pass or railway ticket. The cost, of +he lat ter he is given time to repay. This arrangement has objectionabia feat- ures, since the laborer must both bear the brunt of the expense and take the whole chance of the job lasting long enough to make it possible for him to refund the money to the sovern ment- In spite of this discoura cement to long Journeys, the exchange tends to fuidize the movement of labor throughout Great Britain, and fur nfshes a reliable, neutral medium of information about supply and demand John L.
