Chicago, Feb. 1S.-Chicago caught
a real harbinger of spring in the
act today when Charley Comiskeys

Old Toman, to the number of sixty
or seventy, and several Pacific Coast
league players en- route to join their
respective clubs.
Very much among those present

Il per cent of the good wishes and
hopes for success that he carried

Great things were promised for
Rowland today. The stay-at homes
predicted that RoWlaud'S type

Who Originated
".J;tnsy'' a. Word
For Americans?

The advent OF the jitney bus in
Marshalltown brings up once more the
much discussed question as to the
origin Of the word. All authorities
seem to have been at a loss to ex-
plain the real origin of the word. B. L.
T., Of the Chicago Tribune, inquired
of his readers, and "The Lexico-
grapher,' who conducts department
concerning the derivation of words in
The Literary Digest, was compelled to
confess his inability to answer the in
quiries. The Chicago Daily News APP
pears to be the nrst to suggest a So
luton. This paper received letter
from one who signed himself as No.
1924 E X, and which stated that the
term was coined within prison walls"
or "in certain large reformatory," as
the letter explained. The explanation
as given in the News, and reprinted in
the Digest, says:
The rules were very strict about to-
bacco. and as smoking was easily de-
tected and severely punished. the In
mates craving was universally salts
fled with chewing tobacco, that Is,
what they could get of it, which was
mighty small compared with the de-
mand.
Nevertheless, a certain trusty, whose
name was Jedney, would smuggle to-
bacco in for any inmate who furnished
him the money to buy it with uptown.
He drove dray for the prison, and
in consideration of the risk he Nook he
kept half the stuff as his commits
sion. In this connection I remember
they used the expression "60-4O,' and
$685." describing the split. 1t was
the first time l heard "50-50," and
that was sixteen years ago.
Finally Jedney was paroled and
little, stout, bow-legged colored boy
got the dray, and / was standing by
when runner came to this colored
boy and showed him a dime he had
had slipped to him by somebody going
thru on visit of the grounds, and
wanted to know if he would get him
in some tobacco. The colored boy, as
heir to Jedney's perquisite of office.
accepted the proposition and estab-
lished his basis of doing business with
these words: "You-all get jtney's
worth for this here dime, $3.50" From
that time on a dime bought a ''jitney's'
worth of tobacco within the walls of
that institution.
And the first one I heard use that
word outside was a graduate Of the
reformatory who spoke of going to a
"jitney" show when first started.
The Digest remarks editorially
That the negro boy confused "Jedney"
and "jitney" seems to be only an in
ference. A correspondent writes us
that he remembers an old negro who
used the term many years ago as an
equivalent for cents, so the question
appears To be still open.

MISS MACY TELLS OF EUROPE.
GrinnelI Woman Tells Woman's Club
Members Of Smaller Nations.

Members Of Smaller Nations.
Many members Of the Woman's Club
and several guests enjoyed an address
by Miss Katherine Macy. OF Grinnell.
who spoke before the club Wednesday
afternoon in the Red Mems hall. Miss
Macy told entertainingly of "The
Five Good Little Nations Of Europe.
In speaking of these five countries
Holland Sweden, Denmark, Norway
and Switzerland-Miss Macy first de-
scribed their relations with the larger
countries of Europe, showing how much
more contented the people OF the
smaller countries were; that the people
are as progressive as in the larger
countries, that they have newer
ideas Of government, that they are
continually testing these ideas, and
that Sweden is governed under con-
stitution younger and newer than our
own country's, were among the claims
made.
Miss Macy then went into detail, ex-
planning the various kinds of govern
ment Of these countries. In speaking
of Holland she brought out several in
teresting facts concerning the upper
house Of legislature, which is consid-
cred the weakest house in Europe, for
the members have very little power.
However, the country stands for lib
erty, altho not so democratic as the
other smaller countries. Miss Macy
told of the strong aristocracy Of
Sweden, in which country the upper
house is more powerful and the king
influential. Swedish peasantry is very
intelligent, thrifty and economical. She
related how Sweden and Norway had
separated, how the latter country was
the most democratic in Europe, how
after the people struggled for a repub-
lie they finally decided to have a king,
choosing the second son Of the Crown
Prince of Denmark. The king and
queen are also very democratic, and
the king has little power in the gov

DR.. Isador Dyer of New Orleans, La

which DR.. Lloyd Thomson of Hot

of the WaShermann tests before IS

expected that there will not only be
present every member of the city COM

Among other matters to be consid-

LONDON, Nov S-The annual ban
quet of the Lord Mayor of London
was celebrated in the Guildhall to-
night, Sir Chas. Cheers Wakefield
having been inaugurated during the
course of the day. All the city Off

tives attended
Premier Asquith, his wife and
daughter were Cheered when they en-
tered the hall and CHEERS were also
given the Hiberian minister and for
the allies, notably the French and
Italian ambassadors and the Russian
Grand Duke Michael. The high COM
missioner of New Zealand, the Hon.

son, who was blinded while serving
in the Dardanelles and the young
soldier was given an ovation.
The Earl of Derby, director of re-
cruiting, was warmly received, as was
also the Belgian minister.
When the toast THE King was
given the assembly rose and sang the
national anthem, WHICH was never
done before.
Sir John A. Simon, secretary for
home affairs, responding to our
allies said that the alliance would
become stronger with the duration of
the war.
Paul Cambon, the French ambas-
sador. said:
although the number OF our enc

year, the number of our friends has
been augmented. l am happy to see

Describing the war, he said:
"On the one side are tranquil cour-
age, faith in an ideal of justice and
and the will to employ only
legitimate means of defense. On the
other. thoughts of lucre, forgetfulness
of all the principles of humanity, the
destruction of an open town, the TAX

evil and a plan, pursued with childish
disregard of scruple, to dominate the
world by terror
He made reference to the eXecu-

NEW RELIGION
FOR PERIOD Of
TODAY NEEDED
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1


PITTSBURGH, Nov 9-That the
world is undergoing great upheavals
anr religious ferment and that the time
is ripe for the formation of new re-
ligion, was the statement of Professor
Harry o. Overstreet of the College of
New York, addressing a meeting of
ministers today in connection with the
thirty first annual Unitarian confer
ence of the middle states and Canada,
which opened today.
The time is ripe for the formation of
a new religion" said Prof Overstreet
Much that is peculiar to the period of
today is also peculiar to the Alexan-
drian period when Christianity was
given its birth. Today sees great cults
arising. There are great social up
heavals. 1t is a great age of ferment.
[ think sometimes that out of this vast
social cauldrOn will come some new
thing.
1T seems that we can believe this;
that the accredited religious, institu-
tionalized as they are. have been fail
ures. We find the attitude toward the
church is rather lukeWarm. The ac-
credited religions are not the great
consuming, encompassing things they
ought to be. The new religion will
come in the midst of those groups
which have accepted the scientific,
democratic and social point of view"

R|cHEY TURNS COMMISSION
MEETING INTO F|ASC0

Just when it seemed that the city
commission. after a breathing spell of
more than a month, was about to settle
down and DO some business. particu-
larry with reference to the adoption of
Paving ordinances and resolutions, City
Commissioner Richey put a crimp in
the proceedings yesterday afternoon
when he raised the point that the call
Of the mayor for the meeting as pre-
scented in The Republican yesterday
was not in strict compliance with the
city ordinance prescribing the manner
in which special meetings shall be
called. Richey carried his point in the
face of the opposition of Mayor George
L Young who said that so long as the
CITY commission continues splitting
hairs and is governed by technicalities.
little will be accomplished by that body.
And then he announced that he had
business and that lie was going about
10 while the boys" would bly,
welcome the opportunity to attend the
circus.
Thus what promised to be a perfectly
good meeting. and one before which.
according TO the call of the mayor. a
