ROSALIND

1t is popular belief, not fact. that
spreads the use of a name and the
only available explanation for Rosa
lind is that it was invented by Shakes
peare especially for the lovely heroine
of "As You Like It." There is no
other record of It's history. Rose, of
course, as all know, and there is a
Spanish word linda" which ean

German lind signifying 1.-THE" So,
etymologists lave 1t, that Shakes
peare, seeking a name for his 1.-the
Young masquerader, coined the grace
hui Rosalind.
Rose appears first as Rohais or
Roesia, from the French and Latin of
"hros" meaning fame. In England,
the first Rohias VS. the wife of Gill

the name of the wife of Fulbert De

of devotion. The Rosarium has a day
to itself in the Roman calendar and
may possibly have named the trans
atlantic saint, Rosa di LUNA, which
gave rise to Rosita. Switzerland calls
her Rosel, and France Rosinette or
Rosette. In England she is Rosanne,
sometimes Rosabella, meaning beau

Turnbull had been member of the

the larceny of $500 from the United

his hands for destruction.
United States Attorney LaSkey told
the court that no record is kept of

committee, and it is necessary that
these men be of the highest integrity
He said Turnbull had started to take
the notes shortly after receiving a
place on the committee.
Justice Siddons in imposing a SEN
tence of seven years in the peniten-
Jiary said that one of the most promi-
nent men in the country had asked
for probation for TurnbulI, but the
court felt that such violations of trust
could not be passed over lightly.

PRIVATE FUND ASSISTS CITY.
Winchester Schools to Have Use
of Endowment.

An experiment in providing public
education under the joint manage
ment and responsibility of public au-
thority and the trustees of a private
endowment is suggested for the city
of Winchester. Va.
The late Judge Handley of Scranton,
Pa. left when he died. in 1895 a
large portion of his estate Ito be ex-
pended and laid out in Winchester
by the erection of schoolhouses for
the education of the poor" and di-
rected that this estate be allowed to
accumulate for twenty years.
Study of local conditions showed
that Winchester offered no adequate
field to graduates of a technical high
school. and the program which the
general education board recommended
to the Handley trustees contemplates
a provision obligating the trustees
to devote the income of the trust to
establishing and maintaining, in CO.
operation with the board of educa-
ton. a superior system of public
schools. to include the procuring of
sites, buildings and equipment for
both white and colored schools. 1t
also recommends the choice of a COM
petent superintendent. who shall be
duly and legally authorized to as
sumo the administration and man
agement of the schools.
