Went Back on His Authority.

Leslie Stephens single meeting with
Freeman. the historian, was in the ma
ture of a collision. Il came In contact
with him only once" he said. HE
wrote life Of Alfred for the Diction-
airy Of National Biography under my
editorship. but declined to do more
because we had a difference of Opin-
ion as to whether Athelstane should be
spelled with an A That was, con-
TESS, question to which | was culpa-
bly, Indifferent, but | had taken COM
petent advice, and my system q forget
what it was) had been elsewhere sane
toned by the great historian Stubs.
Now, as Freeman was never tired of
asserting the infallibility Of Stubs,
innocently thought that l might take
refuge behind SO eminent an authority.
The result was that for once Freeman
bIasphemed Stubs and refused to CO.
operate any longer in an unscholarlike
enterprise"

ENGLISH SPELLING.
Consider, If You Please, the Words
VictuaI and Tongue.

Consider, If You Please, the Words
VictuaI and Tongue.
Were you ever perpleXed by English
spelling? But what a foolish question!
The rest of the world is agreed that the
man who insists he is never at a loss
for the correct spelling of a word is a
prevaricator of the nth degree. But
how did our speech happen to be thus
encountered? The French use count
less silent letters, but there is such
system about their liberation that it
can be mastered by the average mind
German is absolutely phonetic, as are
most of the Romance tongues. Greek
was pronounced as it was spelled, and
Latin is simplicity itself for all that
the classical scholars disagree as to the
sounds of the novels and few of the
cOnSOnantS.
Nine. Bernhardt when she was urged
to present her plays in the speech Of
the American people declared, English
is not language; it is violent exercise.
and its spelling is impossible" Many
a schOOlboy and girl will agree with
her. What justification is there for
such word as ''victual," which must
be pronounced just as it was in the
days when it was spelled v-i-t-t-l-e?
And, while we are on the subject Of
our native tongue, how shall we justify
t-o-h-g-u-e, spelling that is monstrous
in the light Of the languages develop
ment? Up to the beginning of the
nineteenth century that word was
fling with here and there nndanfip
faddist who put on airs when he wrote
tongue. Our accepted spelling is an
imitation Of the French "langue" just
as victual is an imitation of the Latin
''victualia," handed down by half bak-
ed scholars.-St. Louis Globe Demo

Honest Praise.

An honest compliment was that paid
to NJ. dc Nendome. who. While com
manding the French army i'll Italy. dis
patched 4 yonng nObeman to announce
10 his master the victory which he had
gained 1T SuZzara. The latter while
attempting to describe the battle be-
came several times much confused in
his narrative, when, although the king
preserved his gravity, the Duchess Of
Burgundy, who was present, laughed
SO heartily that at last the young gen
tleman said, "Sire, it is easier for ~
de Vendome to win a battle than for
me to describe it."

MINING TIMBER.
Beds Of Prehistoric Trees Under the
Earth's Surface.

You know all about mining, or, at
least, you know the sort of things that
are obtained from the depths Of the
earth, such as gold, iron, coal, salt and
precious stones. Did you ever hear of
mining timber? The chances are that
you did not, and yet there was a time
when the mining Of white cedar was
one Of the most important industries
Of New Jersey.
Those who delved in the swampy
earth in pursuit Of the great and per-
fectly preserved logs were not compelled
to dig deep pits. for the trunks of those
prehistoric trees were seldom more
than fifteen feet below the surface.
Many of the logs were as much as six
feet in diameter, and one was found
with 1850 annual rings. Beneath this
tree, which had fourished in its native
forest for more than thousand years.
there was dug up another tree of an
even earlier forest with more than 500
rings.
New Jersey is by no means the only
state in the Union or the only part Of
the world where prehistoric trees are
to be found SO perfectly preserved that
even their characteristic odor is re-
tanned. Near Salem, o., a large guam
tity of timber was dug up at depth
of forty feet, the trees incased in
thick layer Of glacial mud, and it is
nothing uncommon in eastern Michigan
for the diggers of wells to encounter
tree trunks sixty feet down in the soft
earth. The wood thus obtained is the
best wood to be had especially for fine
cabinet work. In Germany it has long
been the custom to dredge the deep bed
of the Rhine for ancient logs, out of
which the cases of the finest toned pi-
amos are constructed.-Ex

COvERNESS GETS CREDIT MATCH
 MAKER

ROME, Dec. P. -- The least known and yet one of the most influential wo. men in Italy at present is Miss Mar. garet Brown, the English governess of three of the girls of the royal family
 Since the publication of the arrange ment of a marriage between Edward Albert, Prince of Wales, heir apparent to the English throne, and Princess Yolanda, eldest daughter of the king and queen of Italy, the position of this humble governess as the domestic power behind the throne is said to have been greatly strengthened. Should the marriage between young Edward and the wealthiest royal heir ess of Europe take place, as Is expect ted, Miss Brown will receive due credit as the matchmaker.
 The mystery that has grown up around the personality of Miss Brown is one of the sources of her influence. Also, it is of the kind that plsases the king, who has horror of the pub licity which his position forces upon him. Those persons of the court life who dislike Miss Brown because of her confidential position, because of her power to hold her tongue, and her custom of standing beside the queens chair during receptions. have tried in vain to discover exactly who she is. To date, all they have learned is that she is a strong minded person of some 45 years, who appeared on the scene at the birth of Yolanda, the first child. and who has been in charge of the children ever since. It appears that the king and queen wanted their child ren brought up after the English fash ion, and that Miss Brown was recom- mended by some member of the Eng fish royalty.

Baseball statisticians continue in- dustriously to delve into Pacific coast league records for material with which to regulate winter months of the en- thusiasts.
 Los Angeles, 1916 Coast League champions. never dropped below the first division during the year; Port land and Salt Lake never stopped over night in second place, although both teams stayed a few days in first place at various times during the year With these three exceptions every club in the league finished at least one playing day in every position from top to the cellar in the pennant race ranking.
 Counting two Mondays, when games were played, there were 182 playing days in the 1916 season. Of these Oak land spent 143 days in last place, and was in first place seven days Port land spent 22 days in last place and three in first place the fourth place San Francisco was on top for seven days and the bottom one day: the third place Salt Lake was on top four days. in third place 21 days, and spent nine days in last place of the 157 days that | Salt Lake was rated as a second di- vision outfit. The second place Yer | non club was in last place one day and only spent six other days in the second division; for sixty days Yer non was in first place and for 95 days in second place. The league cham pion Angels were in first place l13 days, in second place 49 days and only dropped as low as third place for 20 days.
