The negro chauffeur was charged
with manslaughter, but was released

employer, A. H. Rich.
John Hoffstatter, father of the

of the car struck and hurled to the
ground.
South is said to have had his wife
in the car with him. He denied that
his was one of the two cars which
passed Adams and Hoffstatter as
they were crossing the street. He
claims that he did not see the second
little boy at all until after he hit
him. The accident happened on the
crossing intersection or just above it,
practically opposite tho south end OF
tho tennis court.

KATHERINE.

Like Mary, the charming name Of
Katherine has an almost illimitable
history. and it's derivations and con-
fractions are endless. It signifies
pure. since IL was first borne by a
maiden martyr, whose name was
chosen as the center OF an allegory
or intellectual religion. Katherine in
Greek became Catharina in the Lat
in tongue Going further back, IL
can be found that this martyred
Katherine was so-called for another
and earlier Katherine, virgin
martyr of Alexandria. whose history
is unknown. Some historians credit
her with being the daughter of a
king of Egypt. but this contention
cannot be substantial. However il is.
Katherine's purity and sanctity are
unmistakable.
The martyrdom OF the original
Katherine is recorded in literature
and art-the destruction OF the
wheels that were TO have torn her
asunder: her martyrdom by the
sword and the translation OF her
body by angels TO Mount Sinai at
whose foot stands convent bearing
her name, where she is adOred per-
petually are all familiar themes TO
the masters Of pen and brush.
Passing from the sublime to the
pra ctical the fireworks called Cath
erine-wheels are an allusion 70 the
! instruments OF torture which were
destroyed By lightning and the tiny
brown bird known as the Klttywren
is so-called from association as her
sacred bird.
The Crusaders brought home the
story Of Katherine's mertyrdom and
her name spread in fame through
out the west. The Italians had a
Santa Carerina of Sienna, whose in
fuence was potent during the mid
die ages thus adding another link
10 the chain OF sanctity which sur
rounds the name of Katherine.
Another famous Katherine was
the countess Of Salisbury. heroine Of
the Garter. John OF Gaunt had a
daughter. who, as queen of Castillo,
made Caterina a favorite in Spain.
whence It was returned 10 England
. with Katherine Of Aragon. Gather
inc de Valois, queen Of Henry V
brought il 10 France. Several OF the
queens of the much-married Henry
| VIII. bore the name of Catherine.
The * in Katherine is the Teu
tonic rendition and the shrewish
Katherine OF Germany. as well as
the far-famed Russian empress are
examples OF the bad repute of that
spelling, but the faithful Spanish
Catalina, as English queen wrote
herself Katherine and so redeemed
the name. while the "Shrew" was
really Caterina and the Russian en-
press was sometimes called Ekater-
ina.

derivatives Of Katherine viii be dis
