He Was In a Hurry.

Charles Monselet in his "Curiosites Litterares', tells of a friend of his uv- ing at Bordeaux who, glancing through a Paris booksellers catalogue, saw the title of a book which he had vainly sought for thirty years. Looking at the clock, he found there was just time to catch the morning express for Par is. Stopping only to take some money from his cash box, he dashed off to the station and arrived at the bookshop in time to secure the prize. As he wrapped up the book the shopman re- marked, "I suppose you live in this street, monsieur?y ''No; I have just come from Bordeaux" was the reply. The man looked astonished, and the bibliophile discovered that in his eager ness he had travelled 36O miles in dress ing gown and slippers and had never noticed any deficiency of attire.

THE WORD CASUALTY"
First Used as Battlefield Term In the
 Crinoean War.

First Used as Battlefield Term In the
 crimean War.
 When did the word casualty first assume the modern specialized mean ing with which it is associated in war reports? I think it must have been at the time of the Crimean war, for in the latest volume of "Disraelis Life" l have come across the following pas sage, dated Sept. 2, 1855: Lady Lon donderry is in despair about her son, who is now in the trenches. Casualties, she says, and, truly, what horrible word to describe the loss Of limb and lifew
 The underlining and the comment seem to show that Disraeli, one of the greatest masters of worlds. found its use unusual. Murray's Dictionary does not give much assistance on the point, for all it's quotations, such as one from the Duke of WellingtOn's dispatches in 1910, "the casualties of the service" do not necessarily imply anything except loss by unavoidable accidents.
 My suggestion, however, is borne out by the following from Stocqueler's Military Encyclopaedia" published in 1858, which says, "Casuals or casual ties, term signifyipg men that are dead (since first enlisted) or have been discharged or have deserted''-in oth- CT words, total losses. No mention is made, it should be noted, of the appli- cation of the word to temporary losses caused by wounds It was Lady Lon donderry's use of it in this sense per haps which Disraei found strange Westminster Gazette.

PARK CITY CLUB
 GROWING FAST,
 PLANS TO BUILD
Two ClubhOuses With More Anchorage Will Be En-
 joyed by Members.

Plans are being laid by the Park City Yacht club of this city whereby yachting and motor-boating Tn Bridgeport will be stimulated
 The first of the Monday night dances, practically opening the club house to the public for such occasions. was held last night with large num- Der of guests present. The danes will be continued throughout the sea- son with the probability that the gen. uine courtesy and yachting spirit of the committee in charge will make a host of friends and greatly increase the enthusiasm for water sports in this section of Connecticut.
 Under the present plan admission to the Park City clubhouse is extend ed without formal invitation to all members and friends of members of the club. Because of the musical tal- ent and musical. instruments possessed by the club membership, it has not been necessary to charge admissions at the door.
 At the opening Monday night re- ception, dancing was the order until the middle of the evening, when the entire clubhouse was opened to the inspection of guests. Under the di- rection of the committee the many phases of yatchting and marine GUS toms and courtesies were carefully ex- plained. The guests made themselves comfortable in the spacious parlors and model rooms.
 The committee in charge of the Monday night dances is William J Lynch, chairman; Daniel H. Boyle, William Langdon, Rudolph Breetz, William Terrence, William Lee, Wil-' liam Clark, Samuel Hall, William O'Brien and J. Barber.
 Plans for the new clubhouse of the Park City Yacht club on Steeple- chase Island, giving a modern sum- mer home to the big yachting organi- zation, are growing apace. At a meeting of the board of governors, held recently it was decided that the building should be erected by bond ing. This is to be done exclusively among members of the club, the al- lotment being evenly appportioned among the members. The financial as well as architectural plans are un- der the direction of H. O.. Cram, chairman of the property committee, and the subscription to the bonds is said to be rapidly progressing so that building may be begun early in the spring.
 As planned there will be two club houses with anchorage to accommo- date the largely increased number of boats entered at the club. A large motor launch capable of carrying 20 to 25 members or friends will be maintained under competent direc- tion for the purpose of conveying members to the island clubhouse, which will be semi in design and will have a large grill restaurant, broad porches and commodious land ing stages.
 Under the. direction of MT. Cram, whose broad experience in the boating and motor-building world especially fits him for the supervising office he now fills with the club, the success of the plan is assured and Bridge port may look towards one of the most sumptuous clubhouses that adorn the shores of New England or the Long Island coast.

MYSTERY PERSISTS OVER
 RECREATION BOARD PLAN

Mystery still shrouds that propos- ed ordinance creating a recreation commission. It came before the common council last night with a message from the mayor recommend ing it, but the mayor did not read the draft of the proposed ordinance and 1t was referred to the ordinance com mittee without public reading.
 The proposed ordinance was read at the caucus of the Republican alder men which preceded the council meeting last evening. The Demo cratic members were not informed as to it's provisions. Prior to the time the ordinance reached the Republican aldermen, several prominent members of the Bridgeport Pastors association knew more about the matter than did the officials who are supposed to en- act it into law.
 Why there is so much secrecy about the matter none of those concerned in seeing it made law will explain. When the mayors commission was making a survey of the city the members kept every move in secret.
 Rev. John R. Brown, chairman of the recreation commission, appeared before the board of 'apportionment on the day when 1t was sitting to lay the final tax, and asked for $10,000 for the expenses of establishing a perma- nent recreation commission. The board finally voted $7,0O0.
 The ordinanie proposes that the commission shall have charge of every sort of public recreation in the city and especially that recreation which is commercialized. As told before, one member is to be the superintendent of public schools or a representative of the board of education; one is to be a member or representative of the park board; one, a member of com mon council, chosen. by the mayor; and two, at large, chosen by the mayor one of whom shall be a woman

Chinese National
 Deficit 70 Million

Peking, March 6.-Estimates of the deficit in the Chinese national treas ury for the year 1916 vary from $40,- 100000 to $70,0O0,000 gold. Official figures are lacking, as it is practically impossible to get even approximate statements from the various branches of the government.
 An unofficial report shows that the land tax for 1916 produced over $39,- 000,000 gold, while Nkin, or interior duties, yielded over $31,00O,000 gold.

Pipes May Be from Liners

Flpe6 N1ay bC from lAncFS
 Examination of the steel pipes, of which the bombs were made, led the Hoboken police to believe they were obtained from the ruined interiors of one or more of the German steam ships tied up at Hoboken. The Com mercial Hotel is directly opposite the piers of the North German Lloyd, and within a stone's throw Of tho Eafa- burg-American line piers.
 The theory e .he HobS.se=; police Is that when the crews of the German vessels wrecked the machinery some body working for Germany obtained sections of pipe and had it cut into sections similar to those found in Kolb's room. As neither the Hoboken nor the New York police have au- thority to go below decks on any of the German vessels, the theory will be difficult to prove.
 Kolb's presence in the Commercial Hotel, which has been a rendezvous
