FREDERICK

FREDERICA is the feminine coun-
= terpart Of the popular masculine
name Frederick. 1t signifies "peace
ruler" and comes originally from the
old Freyr of Teutonic mythology.
Freyr meant "free," which is loosely
translated to '1ove of peace" The
idea was personified into god of very
high rank who later was disintegrated
into brother and sister, called Freyr
and Freya.
Freya named the sixth day Of the
week and presided over love and mar
rage and drove over battlefields In a
chariot drawn by panthers 70 conduct
the slain to their appointed places in
valhalla. While Freyr was progress
ing by direct route into Frederick, the
feminine form was slower in becom-
ing Frederick.
The sanity daughter of the lord Of
Oxford bore the name of Frithswith
and lived In a little cell at Thornbury
and had curious adventures which are
portrayed In a window Of the cathe-
dral of AFFORD. She was also patroness
of the university and cathedral. The
cumbersome name of Frethesantha
was borne by the wife of Godfrey
Luttrell In the Fourteenth century.
Frederick is purely an English In
vention, though Portugal and Italy had
adopted it intact The French call 1t
Frederigue and the Germans Fridrika.
Onyx is Frederica's talismanic
stone. It will guard her from lovers
quarrels and assures her of a sweet
lovable nature. Thursday is her lucky
day and 1 her lucky number.

Captain Kids Fatal Mistake

THE die had been cast and Capt.
= William Kidd, whom King VIII
liam had sent out to catch pirates,
had decided to be pirate himself
and had announced his intention of
"ballasting his ship with gold and
port Of Babb's Key where the Mocha
fleet was loading its cargo, Captain
Kids ship, the Adventure, sailed.
And then the Mocha fleet one night
stole out of the harbor, outwitted the
would-be pirate and got clean awayl
But Captain Kidd was soon in hot
pursuit and, catching up with 1t, this
daredevil English seaman pushed his
little galley into the midst of the big
merchantmen and opened the battle.
rich loot! The Adventure was round
ly peppered by the merchantmen's
guns and forced to fall back while
the fleet continued on it's way to In
dia. So grumbling arose among the
crew.
Captain Kidd tried in vain to re-
coup his fortunes. But the few cap
lures which he made after the es-
cape Of the Mocha fleet were unim-
portant.~ The climax came In battle
with the Portuguese ship, the Loyal
Captain. For five hours the two ships
banged at each other. Then the Portu-
guese sailed away and all the pirates
had to show for their work was ten
badly wounded men. The grumbling
among the crew increased
1t came to head in the person Of
Gunner Moore, who made so bold as
to say that he could have shown
Captain Kidd a way to have taken
the Loyal Captain and that without
any risk" There was a sting in those
three words with their sinsinuation
of cowardice on the captains part.
(Which way could you have put
me In way to take that ship with
out risk?" he demanded. The gunner
sought refuge in a lie "Sir," he pro-
tested, Il never spoke such word
nor ever thought such thing" you
lousy dog!' roared the captain. IF
/ am lousy dog, you have made me
So" cried Moore desperately. "You
have brought me to ruin and many
more"-this last a subtle appeal for
the support of his mates. Have l
then ruined you, We dogf" cried the
Infatuated pirate. 'Then take that!
Captain Kidd seized heavy wood
en- basket bound with iron hoops and
struck the gunner a crushing blow
upon the head Gunner Moore died.
His words and actions had been in
cipient mutiny and as such his cap
tain was justified by the harsh rule
Of the sea In Furnishing it thus. But
that one blow proved to be Captain
Kidd's fatal mistake. For it he paid In
Execution dock.

The End of Captain Kidd

MoMENToUs as was the killing OF
AVA Gunner Moore in determining the
final fate of Captain Kidd, 1t also
marked a turn for the better in his
fortunes. For soon after this incident
he scored his first successes, the cap
ture Of two Moorish ships, although
he had to resort to the subterfuge Of
flying the French flag to do 1t. Then
came the climax of his career.
He captured ship named the Que
dab Merchant, commanded by an Eng
lish skipper but chartered by com
pany of Armenians. Its cargo was
valued at more than 10000 pounds
sterling, one of the most valuable
prizes ever taken by a pirate, and for
the first time Kidd was able to Keep
his promise to his crew to ballast his
vessel with gold and silver and make
them all rich men when their share
of the loot was distributed.
This capture was followed by others,
none, however, so valuable. Then Kidd
decided to turn for home and give an
accounting to the partners in his orig
inal enterprise, particularly Lord Bell
amont. In the meantime ugly rumors
had been coming back to England
about Kids doings in the South seas
and in December, 1893, general par
don had been offered for all pirates
who would surrender themselves-with
two exceptions: Captain Avery and
Captain Kidd. So when Captain Kidd
arrived in New York In May, 1899,
Lord Bellamont who was then visiting
In Boston was placed in an extremely
embarrassing position = he was the
partner of man whom he must arrest.
Before going to Boston Captain Kidd
put in at GARDENERS island, at the end
of Long Island sound, and there buried
a part Of the treasure which has
formed the basis for so many romantic
stories and which has been sought for
so vainly for so long. This burying of
the treasure may have had something
to do with the quarrel which is said
to have arisen between Kidd and Bell
amont and his other partners, the up
shot of which was that Kidd was ar
rested and sent to London for trial.
The case became great scandal
and it was easy to predict who would
be the scapegoat Kidd was formally
charged with piracy and murder. He
could have met the charge of piracy
by proving that the ships which he
had taken were lawful prizes had it
not been for the fact that certain
documents to substantiate his claims
disappeared Che had given them to
Bellamont). incidentally, those docu-
ments were found 200 years later In
the public records office-20O years too
late to save an innocent man. But al
most any excuse was good enough for
the authorities. SO they found him
guilty of murder, the killing of Gum
ner Moore. and for that he died at
Mapping on May %, 1701.

CHE WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
By H. IRVING KING
THREE KEYS

THIS charm is highly recommended
= for young women who are anxious
to know whether that young man who
has been philandering about so long is
going to propose or not. Buy three
small keys: tie them together with a
small cake Of dough on which you
have scratched the initials of the
young mans name and place the bum
die under your pillow when you go to
bed at night. If the youth Is destined
to be your future husband he will ap-
pear to you in your dreams-other-
wise not. Here we have the sympa-
thetic magic of the key, and also the
magic of names-nomancy as 1t Is
called-which was such a favorite
with the ancients, especially the Ro-
mans.
The key, of course, locks things.
When the Bulgarian peasants want to
keep the plague out of village they
go out with lock and key and per-
form the operation of locking upon
all sides of the settlement. This, by
sympathetic magic, locks out the
pestilence. The maiden's three keys
are for locking to her the affections Of
her lover, the said lover being repre-
scented by the initials of his name
which she has inscribed In the cake of
dough.
For primitive man considered, and
peoples living in primitive state still
consider, and the civilized Romans
considered, that man and his name
were so strongly affiliated as to be
practically one. In choosing three
keys we see a hint of the magic of
numbers arithmancy. The selection
of cake of dough upon which to In
scribe the lovers initials brings in
something else-an invocation to the
conspirit which our barbarian an
cestors of northern Europe worshiped.
Now In the night spirits and "exter-
nal souls" of living people-the astral
bodies" Of the ancients-are more
loosely attached to their corporal
bodies than during the day. Sleep, the
primitive man thought, released them :;
and so, If the maiden and her lover
are to wed the three keys lock to the
maiden the initials, the name, of the
lover and he appears to her in her
dreams. All good primitive magic.

lieved in today by Its votaries as 1t

There's the old boy! He'll be In sight
In moment"
And sure enough! soon Mr.. Grow
tapped out of the woods and came
sailing over the meadows.
Thereupon Mr.. Frog set up great
croaking. And to his delight his elder
ly friend heard him calling and
dropped down at once.
1--we some news for you," Mr.. Frog
announced, as soon as the old black
scamp alighted near him.
It'll have to keep" Mr.. Crow re-
piled. "I'm on my way to the corn
field. I haven't had my breakfast yet.
And person of my age has to eat
his meals regularly"
The sprightly tailor looked slightly
disappointed.
81 don't know whether the news
will keep or not" he replied slyly.
"It's very important. And may have
to tell 1t to some one else first If you
don't care to hear it now"

MIR. FROG reached home just as
49, the sun peeped over the hills.
He slipped hastily out of the water,
sprang up the bank of the creek, and
In three jumps landed on the roof of
his tailor's shop. There he squatted,
while his queer, bullying eyes scanned
the sky in every direction. He was
watching for Mr.. Grow, and all but
bursting with the news that he had
for the old gentleman.
Mr.. Frog had not sat there long be-
fore he heard a hoarse cav, cawl in
the distance.
There he is !" cried the tailor aloud
