THE LATE UNPLEASANTNESs'
Phrase Was Coined by General But
Ter at a Banquet.

Every one is familiar with-the term,
the late unpleasantress." az denoting
the war between the states, but there
are few who know that it was coined
by none other than Benjamin +. But
lcr The Philadelphia Public Ledger
narrates the incident.
At a dinner given in Washington by
Caleb Gushing shortly after the war
General Butler and DR.. A. Y. p. Gar
nett. who used to tell the story, were
invited guests.
DIR. Garnett was detained by his
professional duties and did not come
in until late. When he entered the
dining room General Butler was
speaking. and, by way of contributing
to the general good humor of the
evening, the union general took oc-
casion, in the course # his remarks to
refer to the war as the late rebel
lion.'
DR.. Garnett had been surgeon gen
eral of the Confederate army ana pri-
vate physician to jefferson Davis. I'm
less Robert Toombs, of Georgia, might
be excepted, there was never a mora
unreconstucted rebel than DR.. Car
nett When the eX-confederate heard
General Buffers remark he was on his
feet in an instant.
There was no rebellion, sir" he ex-
claimed. There was no one to rebel
against. We were freeborn American
citizens, fighting for what we thot
was right. Fate was against us and
we surrendered in good faith. I per-

ATTENDANCE DECREASE AT
ADA NORMAL IS 19 PER CENT
Enrolment at East Central Suffers
Less Than at Other In
stitutions.

Special TO The World.
ADA, okla, Nov. 3.-That the East
Central normal has not fallen off in
attendance like the other normal
schools Of the state is the information
obtained from a study of the records.
The enrolment at this time is S33,
while for the same time last year it
was 420, making a reduction of 10
per cent. According to the records
of superintendent X IL. Wilson, the
reduction in enrolment in all the
normal schools is AZ per cent.
President j. NJ. Gordon says that
the decreased attendance can be
traced in every instance to the war
either directly or indirectly. Either
the war has taken the students them
selves to the army, or IL has taken
other teachers and left vacancies to
be filled by students of this school.
The dropping off in attendance is
more among the men than among the
women. Men last year constituted
35 per cent Of the student body, while
this year they constitute only 25 per
cent This, MIR. Gordon points out
shows that directly the war has af
fected the school.
The demand for teachers cannot be
met, so great has been the answer TO
the call OF the country by the teach
ing profession. Men are not avail
able. so the boards are taking women
instead. School boards, which a year
or two ago would not think Of en-
ploying a woman principal or super
intendent, are glad now TO take a
woman.
Mrs. A. l. Bullock left school a
few days ago to take charge of a large
consolidated rural school at a salary
Of sl10 a month. This position has
heretofore been filled by men. Nor
NAL graduates will not go around now
and undergraduates are having to fill
in, depicting thus the attendance in
the schools.
\ New Method.
"Of course. women should vote" he
said. Women deserve the suffrage
as much as men-more, because their
minds are pured and cleaner"
Cleaner" cried the eweet young
thing he had taken in to dinner. cot
course they are, ever ana ever 50
much cleaner! But how did you
know that"
because they change them SO much
oftener," he said, solemnly.

efforts Of the officer Of the watch on

the intruder: "Hullo, there. You're

out and anchor elsewhere. I'm in

BARGAIN SALE Is ON!
GET FISHING LICENSE

Hunters and anglers may buy
their licenses at bargain rates
between now and May 21,
State Game Warden Shoemaker
announced yesterday.
The new law increasing the
license fee becomes effective on
that date, but that does not de-
prive the sportsman from doing
his 1917 rod-and-gun stunts un-
der the old rate If he hurries.
The present rates for either
hunting or fishing licenses are
81 per year, while 81 is the rate
for combination hunting and
'fshing license. After May 21st
the rate will be $1.5O for single
licenses and SO for the combina-
tion.
More licenses have been sold
during February than during the
same month last year by be-
tween 1900 and 1900. 1t is eX-
pected that the revenues of the
fish and game commissions from
this source will be materially
larger than last kear.

WORK BEING RUSHED
AT HANSON SHIP YARD

The repair work on the steam
or Newport is nearly completed
and If the weather holds good
so that work can be carried on
will probably see the boat back
on the run by next week. The
Newport has been thoroughly
gone over and repaired. The
side walls of the main cabin and
the beams below decks have had
to be replaced as they would not
pass inspection. New ratings
have been put on the upper deck
and the cabin covered with a
layer of prepared roofing topped
with heavy duck. The boat s
ITO horsepower gas engine has
been inspected and the valves
ground. The superstructure is
to be painted now but the bot
tom will not be scraped and
painted until later in the season.
The Fremont is being given
the finishing touches this week
after being overhauled and re-
furnished. A new three cylinder
35 horsepower Palmer gas en-
gine has been installed and a pi-
lot house built on.
The fishing boat that Is being
built for. the Portland firm will
be completed after the Newport
is out of the way. The ribs have
already been placed on the keel
but the cold unsettled weather
of the past few days has re-
layed work, otherwise It would
have been farther advanced.
A second fish boat Is to be
built and the weather permitting
will be launched in a few
weeks.
