aRMY AND NAVY TERMS.
Origin of Some Of the Titles and Elk.
pressions In Use.


pressions In Use.
Here are the origins of some of the
terms used in the army and navy:
Captain" is derived from the Latin
"caput" meaning head; colonel"
comes from the Italian "colOnna," a
ing been the first company of an in
fantry regiment, the little column
which the colonel led. The title
lieutenant" comes from a word sig
nifying holding the place"-e. g.. n
lieutenant colonel is a sort of under.
after a company in the absence of the
captain, and so on. The titles of lance
sergeant" and "lance corporal" origi-
mated in the fact that in the old days
the holders Of those ranks carried
lance instead Of halberd, round the
head of which was twisted a slow
match. Their duties were to 60 round
the ranks with these torchlike lances
and give fire to the matchbox men just
before battle took place.
The word "dragoon" was first used
Of a regiment of mounted infantry, so
called from the dragons" or short
muskets, with which they were armed;
the well known cavalry call of Boot
and saddle" is really corruption of
the old French signal. "Doute selle,"
or Put on your saddles" admiral"
comes from the Arabic "Emir of bagh."
meaning Lord Of the sea-; "commo.
dore' comes from the Italian "com.
mandatore;" mate" is from the Ice
andic and means an equal. and the
term "giving quarter" is believed to
have originated in the agreement which
existed in the old fighting days, that
the ransom Of foot soldier should be
onequarter Of his pay for one year.

Oh. tender tale of old,
Live in thy dear renown!
Gods smile was in the dark---behold
That way his host came down.
Light up, great God, thy word.
Make the blest meaning strong,
AS if our ears, indeed, had heard
The glory Of their song.
1t was so far away.
But thou couldst make it near.
And all its living might display
And cry to it. BE here!"
Here. in the unresting town.
AS once remote to them
Who heard it when the heavens

On pastoral Bethlehem.
1t was so long ago.
But God can make it now
And, as with that sweet overthrow.
Our empty hearts endow.
Take, Lord, those words outworn;
Oh. make them new for aye:
Speak--"Unto you a child is born."

tated killing Rasputin and thus put

blasphemously mocking the most holy

Guseva concluded: "As a simple Chris
tan l could not suffer his abuse of the
church. I wanted to kill him last year.
1 went to Yalta. but could not approach
him. because he was SO closely surround
ed by aristocratic woman followers.
IT regret that 1 failed to kill him. All
the same. he will not live. The Russian
people will not endure such disgrace"
Rasputin in an interview said:
1T Is all that cursed Heliodorus. Abb
bot of Tsaritsyn. But to the confusion
Of himself and all my enemies I will
live and they will have nooses put around
their necks.''
Heliodorus was a great rival of Ras-
putin in the Russian capital whence he
was recently banished. owing to Ras-
putin's influence with the emperor.

Another move will be made by the
home rule committee tomorrow in its ef-
fort to oust Commissioner Newman from
office. Secrecy is being maintained as to
the plans for the attack.
Following receipt of the Commissioner s
refusal to grant an audience to the spe-
cial committee appointed to convey to
him resolutions adopted at the mass
meeting held July 8, requesting his re-
tirement the committee yesterday held
a long conference in the Office of Fulton

Of discussing the situation.
Unable to See President.
Tentative plans for continuing the fight
were outlined. but it was decided to
postpone action until reply had been
received from President Wilson in re-
sponse to a request that the committee
be permitted to call on the chief execu-
tive for the purpose of demanding Mr..
Newman's resignation.
This reply reached Chairman Gordon
this morning. Secretary Tumulty inform
ing the committee head that the Presi-
dents calender would not permit Of any

This is understood to close the incident
at the White House unless the committee

written brief or see him personally he has
no objection.

where the President will sign it tomor-

Agreement of the Conferees.
Both Senate and House having broken
the deadlock over the conference report
on the District appropriation bill, that
measure was prepared for the President s
signature last night Although there was
no sign of either body receding from
their respective positions earlier in the
day, the Senate and House conferees got
together on the disputed items. and
cleared up a situation that was en-
barrassing the District more and more
as the delay progressed. As the bill was
agreed to. the Borland amendment was
stricken out and the disputed paragraph
appropriating 81, 100 to Thomas n. Keller
not in the bill.
The amended Borland paragraph pro-
vides that street paving and resurfacing
of streets shall be paid for one-fourth by
the United States, one-fourth by the Dis
trict. one-fourth by property owners on
one side and one-fourth by the property
owners on the opposite side Of the street
1t applies only to forty-foot streets. In
thoroughfares wider than forty feet prop
erty owners shall be required to pay only
their proportion up to forty feet.
Section 8. which proposed to pay to the
United States whatever surplus funds the
District of Columbia should collect. was
disposed of early in the deliberations of
the conferees. and received its death
blow when the House District committee
reported favorably the bill to establish
a commission to inquire into the fiscal af-
fairs between the District and the United
States. The Senate would not accept
that section, and the House conferees
were Of the opinion that 1t could wisely
be set aside, in view of the coming in
quiry.

MIGRATING FARMERS
HAMPER PROSPERITY

Washington May 20.-The frequen-
cy with which American farmers
move from one place to another or. the
instability of occupancy of farms ac-
cording to the census bureau, very
likely forms one of the chief causes
for the decline of rural prosperity or a
hlndrance to greater prosperity.
The census bureau today made pub
lie figures giving the results Of its
queries to farmers asking them how
long they lived on their farms.
Of the 6, 3s1, ,502 farms in the United
States April Is. 1910, 5,794.76s. or 81
per cent, answered the question salts
factorily. Approximately 81 per cent
Of all those who answered the question
satisfactorily had occupied their farms
less than five years.
Movement Small in North.
In the north 81 per cent. or nearly
three fifth. OF the farmers, had oper-
ated their farms for five years, while
only % per cent had been there one
year or less. In the west the proper
tions were IA and 81 per cent respec-
lively, while in the south only Al per
cent had been on the same farm five
years or longer and 81 per cent had
been there one year or less. More
than 100000 farmers had lived on
their farms less than year.
"Short period of occupancy for over
half OF ali the farmers OF the United
States" says the census bureau, stbe-
comes all tho more significant when II
is taken into consid Iteration that 1t re-
quires three or four years for farmer
TO become acquainted with the various
conditions on his farm, such as soil
climate, etc, and put 1t In condition
for raising crolts," /
