BIBLE NAMES DROPPED
LATELY SEEM TO BE OUT OF "a.
VoR WITH PARENT.
Such Puritanic Handles" as Ebenexer
and zaock, for instance, Do Not
Seem to Appeal as They
Once Did.

A certain set of Christian names
TAKEN from the Scriptures have been
USED so long that We do not think of
them as Bible names. Among them are
Adam, Moses, Samuel, David, Daniel,
solomon Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
Others taken from the saints, like Pc
Ter, John, Stephen and Matthew, orig
lnaily given 70 children because they
were born on the saints day, are still
SO common that we think of them as
English names.
These names antedate the use of
surAames. as may be inferred from
the fact that nearly all of them have
given rise 10 patronymics, like ia
cobson. Peterson and Stevenson. In
the twelfth century missionaries sent
out by the authorities used to bap-
tlle whole villages at once, and TO
cave time invested all the men with
the name of John or some other saint,
and the women usually Mary or Mar
tina. To distinguish the Johns some
additional name like Short or Strong
of White or Black was given him by
the neighbors, and so Christian names
and surnames were united,
After the reformation ii became the
fashion among the Puritans to give
children the names of characters like
the Old Testament, and odd ones like
Melchisidek or Barzillai were pre-
ferred Among these were Abel, Levi,
Jesse, Amos, Asa, Isaiah. Ephraim, Gid
con, Malachi, Abner, Hosea. Ezekiel
jeremiah, zachariah, Asher, Eli, and
hundreds of others.
For some reason the use OF these
names has largely ceased We can un-
derstand why Ebenezer has been
dropped, though once one of the most
common of names in New England
for 1t is decidedly unmelodious. No
modern girl could fall in love with an
EbeneZer. But most of the Puritan
Bible names have a strong manly ring
and have been borne by able men,
That they are going out of use is very
evident from comparing the early
class lists OF Yale with later ones.
Twenty-Five classes in the early eight
eenth century, numbering 375 gradu.
ates, show 119, with Puritan given
names This is about 80 per cent.
Zen classes in the twentieth century,
numbering 3,097, show but Is given
names of this class or less than one
per cent Ebenezer and Barzillai have
completely disappeared Nor is Psl9-
tiah or Zadok to be found.
We can only hope that the descend
ants OF these ancient worthless have
Inherited some OF their sterling quail
tics, though they do not perpetuate
the name.

DahIas, probably the dearest of all
fall blossoms to the amateur grower,
are increasing in popularity.
Every year, the growers say, the
dahlia is coming more In demand
Partly because 1t grows in such a
variety of types and partly because
1t lends itself equally well to garden
decorations and cut flower purposes.
the amateur suburban horticulturist
constantly finds new use for ii.
AS the demand has grown the flower
has received increased attention from
growers until this season the number
of varieties developed reached 500
For long time the castus dahlia
has been developed to the neglect OF
the small densely lowered variety Of
other years.

Counsel and officers of the Bell
Telephone company were given a
hearing before the railroad commits
sion Saturday afternoon in the inves-
tigation instituted by the commission
into the rates charged by the COM
pany in Reno for what are known
as ''extension telephones The
commission received oral and docu-

In addition to the hearing on the

the telephone officials concerning the

Senator Key Pittman, when he
moved to report favorably, the bill
giving San Francisco the right to
establish water supply system in
Fetch Ilctchy valley said: Il would
rather hear the laughing voice OF a
child relieved from the grip OF a
water monopoly than the warble of
all the songbirdS in "Christendom.
His motion came after hours OF de
bate on the question OF whether the
use OF the Hetch Hetchy valley for a
water supply would ruin the beau
ties of that section OF California. and
whether San Francisco and adjoin-
ing towns could get suitable water
supply elsewhere. The senate puD-
lie lands committee decided to report
the bill iavorably by unanimous vote.

Comstock Recovery Company to
Begin Brunswick Operations
Spend Much Money

For many years past, or in fact
since the closing of all of the mills
below Empire. the problem Of saving
tie values known to have been lost
through the process of reducing the
Comstock ores, has attracted the at
tention OF many minds, and solu-
ton has been attempted at various
times with varying success.
1t is a problem of great magnitude,
requiring intricate engineering skill
and appliances, besides energy, work
and money.
For sometime past The Comstock
Recovery Company, composed OF San
Diego people, has been extensively
figuring on the proposition, making
examinations, tests, assays; figuring
cost Of recovery by their plans and
giving the problem a most thorough
company has secured control of the
entire Brunswick holdings including
the river for the entire distance, and
is now making preparations for ac-
tive work on this stupendous project.
The company is practically close
corporation. although shares of stock
may be purchased, yet they are not
advertising stock for sale or doing
any soliciting. John G.. Burgess, Sec
retarv and + Webb assistant SeCre-
tary are now here to remain and at
tend to the affairs. They state that
the company is not asking favors OF
anyone, paying cash for what they
get. will employ local labor purchase se
their supplies from local merchants
and in every manner conduct the
