WAR TERMS NOT UNDERSTOOD
"Forlorn Hope" for Instance, Has Not
the Meaning With Which 1t
Is Credited.

In the course of every war one
hears a great deal about "forlorn
hopes" The term is one of the most
misused in the vocabulary of war. 1t
is commonly misunderstood to mean
"lost troop"-that is detached
troop" The word "hope" in the
phrase is not an English but a Dutch
word, hoop" meaning literally
heap" and secondarily body Of
troops. The word "forlorn" represents
the Dutch 'verloren"-lost. A "ver-
loren hoop was a detached body of
troops thrown out in front of the main
line of battle to find the enemy
and engage them first This was the
regular sixteenth and seventeenth
century practice, and though it was
one of the more dangerous kinds of
service it was not desperate or, in
the English sense, forlorn. Nowadays
much the same work is done by the
detached bouies of cavalry which are
thrown out before the main line to find
the enemy.

war, which is very loosely used. 1t
does not mean surrender, but sur
render on terms; in fact, it means the
terms, not the surrender. 1t is from
the Latin "capitulum' or heading"
(from which is derived our word
''chapter'O, and a capitulation is a
formal treaty Of surrender drawn up
under a series of headings or chap
tiers, embodying the terms on each
point.

Bounty and City Police Action

/ nat CRIME III rreuerlck county is
controlled largely by the efficiency OF
the city and county police officials is
the opinion of Sheriff Conard. Under
an administration of lax methods the
sheriff believes that there would be a
corresponding incl ease in crime.
Although the annual report of the
Frederick Jail shows that there was
an increased number of arrests during
the year this is not necessarily due
to increase in crime Efficiency of
the police force of the county and city
is probably the cause. That Frederick
county is now paroled by an efficient
force is shown by the complimentary
remarks and statements of officials of
other counties. Criminals in planning
getaway" have been known to
warn companions to keep out of
Frederick county,"
During the entire year the number
of criminals that have made safe
escape is unusually small.
According to figures given out re-
Gently by county officials $50 prison
ers were confined in the Frederick Jail
from December 1, 1913, to December 1,
1914. OF this number many were ere
peaters." The arrests made by city
and county officials is far in excess
of this number.
More than 200 prisoners were SEN
fenced to term in the Jail for cor.
poration charges and 445 went to jail
for state charges. Approximately 800
of the prisoners were local people

You sometimes wonder about the

A man was to meet his wife at her
office at one o'clock to take luncheon
with her. He was 20 minutes late. She
had gone out.
He sat down and waited. At 1880
she arrived
What are you doing here?" she
asked
I'm waiting for you"
Didn't you know 1 wouldn't come
back after I'd given you up and gone
out?"
But you did come back, didn't you?
You are back now, aren't your"
Yes, but you might have known
that when I did come back / would
