" L~ It will perhaps be of interest and
went to look into the whys and
257 ‘j'ores of some of these sea phrases,
... Ejmeanings of which are sometimes so
. 1e as to defy translation.
V y of the expressions apparently fit
the vocational conditions so accurately that
afiy divergence would probably be as puz—
21mg to a seamen as though he were spoken
ttiin some foreign tongue. There areshades
ofjsignification that are not to be found in
books, that no end of listening to casual
conversations can master, and which can
only be understood properly by going to
sea and living with the men “forward of
the mast. ”
Of all the various features of procedure
in marine court; of inquiry, nothing is so
curious as the bewilderment excited in the
legal breast by the statements of the nauti-
cal witnesses. “We was going along all
fluking when the wind (ii-awedfiahead. Vie
trimmed sail, and in fore and mizzen bar’-
garns’l, when a bit of a sea makin‘ of her
yaw. ‘Mind yer luff, you soger,’ sings out
th’ old man, an’ as he says this one of the
jib guys parted and sprung the boom, for
ours were swinging booms, and had the
fon’d guy and the after guy fit’r d in one,
with a cuckold’s neck around the boom
end. Are yer a folliwin’ of me, sir?”
WHAT SOME TERMS MEAN.
If one can imagine a statement of this
kind—by no means unusual—delivered to
a lawyer, it will take a still livelier imagina-
tion to picture the facial expression of the
learned counsel. It was only a short time
ago that one of the most eminent lawyers
in the country, in summing up a. case, was
forced to give up trying to designate a par-
ticular portion of a vessel by its technical
name. and admit that he did not know its
proper name, thereby somewhat, weaken—
ing the force of his argument.
Sailors’ 'talk, indeed, is a dialect as dis
tinct from our ordinary language as Choc-
taw or Esquiman. English words are used,
but their signification is utterly remote
from the meaning they have in shore par-
lane/e. A yard ashore mains the land
about a. house; at. sea. it is a. spar. Every
coachman and the majority of boys know
what a. whip is, but at sea. it is a tackle
' formed by a single i’Opl: wove through a
block A lizard is not a reptile, but a
piece of rope with a thimble or ring spliced
into it, just as the cathead is a piece of
timber, and bees are stout pieces of plank.
Beating is not striking, but sailing by
tacks; a bonnet is not for ladies’ wear, but
apiece of canvas laced to the jib: while a
cat’s paw has as little to do with the feline
animal as ilddles and harpings have with
music.
Sailors’ language, however, is by no
means wholly compounded of the terms
referring to the various parts of the ship.
Hardships, perils, rough usage, indifferent
food, scarcity of water, and the like have
imported a mass of rough sayings into the
forecastlc. many of which are sanctified
by touches of rude poetry. Jack’s ditties,
too, are frequently vehicles of his emo—
tions. When he does not know how to
“growl” fairly he will put his feelings
into a topsoil halyard song, and often has
the anchor come up to a fierce chorus com-
pounded of improvised abuse of the ship
and the skipper, to which expression could
not be given in a quieter met Iod.
MANY D'GT MEX.
Unfortunately the list of melodies is
somewhat limited, but the lack of variety
is no obstruction to the sailor‘s poetical
inspiration when he wants the “old man”
tO"kn0\v his private opinions without ex-
pressing them to his face, and so the same
“chantey,” as the Windlass or halyard
chorus is called, furnishes the music to as
many various indignant rcmonstrances as
Jack can find injuries to sing about.
It is peculiar to the sailor to call all for—
eigners “Dutchmen” as long as they hail
from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, ' Ger-
many or Holland. Any man who says
“yah” for “yes” gets at once the credit of
being Dutch. This love of. generic titles
no doubt induces sailors to make the word
“growl” stand for complaining, abusive,
andso on. If a man murmurs in the least
he'is said to be growling, and whether it
be for a little thing or a great one the
same elastic word is used.
“Douse the glim” is to put out alight,
and brings to mind the story of a very ele-
gant young man who prided himself on
using well chosen language, and had an
evident confidence in his ability to. upset
all old customs and expressions. When on
watch one night he had occasion to hail a
man and order a light put out. His order
was to “extinguish that luminary.” It
was repeated several times, but was not
understood, although the man addressed
was looking wildly about in a vain ens
deavor to discover the unusual thing, what-
ever it was. The boatswain now appeared
upon the scene, and, hailing the man,
bawled out, “Douse that glim there and be
d—d to you!” Out went the light as
though it were an incandescent lamp and
the current was suddenly turned off.
And so it goes from one expression to
another. It cannot be expected that the
sailor will find other werds than those
which occur naturally to him in relating
incidents of a profession crowded with say-
i ' to be heard nowhere except on board
ship. It is quite certain that to stop a sailbr
from telling a story in his own fashion is,
to use his phrase, “to bring him up with a
round turn.”—-New York Times.

NORWALK GAZETTEI‘WEDNESDAY "AUGUST 20 1890.
SHE WON TFIE ' BET.
I But It Was Unfortunate Work and She
Won’t Do It Agog,
Pretty Fanny Beale, ahvélypindnnati
bud, is visiting her cousinN‘éllic in'I’iq '
Young Mr. Filley, of St. Intriguing;
sister Mina are also visiting” the seine
house. Barnum’s circus w, : Piquaafid
young Mr. Filley took the " to soothe
show. In discussing the aw afterward
the young'man exp his particular
wonderment at thefeats of a female con-
tortionjsaj He was especially amazed at
the highlyaccomplished manner in which
she twisted he:- foot around the back of her
neck and made a cushion rest for her head
out of her heel. The warmth with which
Mr. Filley expressed his admiratiOn of this
act of the contortionist seemed to nettle.
Miss Beale atriiie, and she turned up her
nose and said:
“Pshaw! That isn’t anything to brag
about. , I can do it myself!” ' ' -
Cousin N ellic and Miss Filley screamed,
and assured Miss Fanny that she wasa '-
ful, and young Mr. Filley laughed at her
and pooh poohed. But the spoiled beauty’s
Cincinnati sporting blood was up, and she
turned to Mr. Fillcy and said in decided
tones:
“I’ll just bet you the price of a box of
kid gloves that I can!” ‘
Then the delicate question as to how Miss
Beale’s ability to perform the acrobatic
feat could be proved to the satisfaction of
the young gentleman arose, and it was
finally settled that Cousin Nellie should
be present while the not was on as referee
for Miss Beale, and that young Mr. ' ley’s‘
sister should also be there in the interest,
of her brother. '
The three girls retired to Miss Beale’s
' room, and young Mr. Filley waited. on the
piazza for an official report of the result of
the feat. Spasmodic bursts of mirth from
Miss Bealc’s room reached his ears for a
time, and then there was a painful silence
for a. few seconds. This was finally broken
by screams of laughter, an exclamation of
wonder and loud clapping of hands in the
room. ' . - - ~
“Blinked if I don‘t believe the little tau—
tar has von it!" said young Mr. Filley to
himself. ' ' ‘ ;
Another period of painful'sllence follow-
ed the outburst'of » wonder and applause.
This was followed by a séreazn or two not
prompted by mirthfulness or wonderment.
Suddenly Cousin Nellie burst from the
room and ran out. shouting in alarmed
tones for her mother. Young Mr. Filley
arose. .
“Has she done it, Nellie?” he asked.
"Oh, Mr. Filley!" Miss Nellie sohbcd,
“she has done it, but she can’t undo it!
Please run for a doctor!”
Fortunately a physician of forty years‘
practice in the town lived onlytwosqimms
away. Young Mr. Filley called him in a
hurry. lie was a good while in Miss
Bealc’s room, but when he left it he was
smiling. W'hen Miss Beale came out an
hour or so later she was a trifle lame, but
she announced triumphantly to young
Sir. Filley that she had won the bet. The
olficial report of the referem unanimously
sustained the claim, and it was promptly
paid.
“I used to do it easy when I was at
school,” said Miss Beale reflectively. “All
the girls did. My heel never once stuck
before. I guessI must be growing old,”
said the Cincinnati bud with a sigh—Co
lumbus (0.) Letter
Saved by the Loss of a Train.
A group of 0ch timers were talking about
the Weather, and the conversation carried
them back to the great storms of years
ago. ‘The queerest combination I ever
know,” said the judge reflectively, “was a
blizzard death, suspected murder and at-
tempted lynching that only miscarried be—
cause the subject missed a train.
“The winter of 187 9—80, as you all recol-
lect, was a very severe one, and many per-
sons living on-the prairies were frozen to
death. Some time before a man named
Crandall had moved from Morris to a
farm in southeastern Dakota. One day a
big storm came up and Mrs. Crandall, who
happened to be on the plain with her
youngest child, was caught in the blizzard
and both were frozen to death. Mrs.
Crandall’s parents lived in Morris, and
when the sad news of her death came her
father started for Dakota to bring back
the remains of his daughter and grand-
child. Crandall and his wife had not got
along very well together, and in some way
rumors of foul play crept out.
“The next afternoon the bereaved father
arrived in Morris with his dead. The bod-
were made to thaw them out. When this
was done Mrs. Crandall’s body was exam-
ined. A deep wound in her side was found.
It didn’t take the people of Morris long to
make up their minds that murder had been
committed. Crandall, it was thought, had
arrived that night with his surviving child,
and gone to the house of his mother, who
lived near the village. A lynching party
was organized in short order, and armed
with ropes, etc. The house was visited
and thoroughly searched, but Crandall
was not to be found. His mother insisted
that he had not arrived, but she was not
believed. Finally the crowd gave up the
search and went home disgusted.
“The next morning the body of Mrs.
Crandall had been entirely thawed out,
and another examination was made. There
was no sign of the broad gash that horri-
fied the people the night before. There
were no bruises—no signs of foul play.
There’s mystery for you! But it developed
after awhile that the flesh had folded to.
gether, giving the exact appearance of a
long and horrible gash. When the body
thawed out the ‘gash’ disappeared. I tell
you, the would—be lynchers of the night
before felt pretty cheap. In an hour or
two Crandall himself arrived in town on
the morning train. He had missed the
train of the night before. That was all
that saved him from a lynching. Of course
he could not help hearing about what had
been going on; what he said or thought I
never knew, but you can guess.”——Minne-
apolis Journal.
Sciené'e ‘at the Work" Bench.
In speaking of. James Nasmyth, the in-
ventor of the steam hammer, who died in
Scotland lately, and who, having madea
fortune by his inventions, retired from
business and devoted the last thirty years
of his life to astronomy and painting, The
Kennebec J Oiu'nal says an almost exact
counterpart of his life was that of a well
known eastern Maine man, who retired
from active business in lumbering at the
age of 45 years and gave his whole atten-
tion to ornithology. Another similar case
was that of Mr. Anson Allen, of Orno, a
successful manufacturer, who gave but
five days a week to the cares of his factory,
surrendering the other day and his even-
ings to botany, and became so much of aspe-
cialist on one genus, the aster, as to be an
authority there in the scientific world.
Then there was Mr. Gowan W. Guptill, of
the western part of the state, one of the
most learned men and accomplished stu-
dents in Maine. who divided his time'dnr-
ing a long life of 8.5 years between farming,
awning and studying.
Young Mr- Fillcy promptly took the bet. I
ies were frozen solid, and arrangements.
A New Method of Treating Disease.
Hospital Remedies.
What are they? There is a. new depar-
ture in the treatment of disease. It con-
sists in the collection of the specifics used
by noted specialists of Europe and America,
and bringing them Within the reach of all.
For instance the treatment pursued by
special physicians who treat indigestion,
stomach and liver troubles only, was ob-
tained and prepared. The treatment of
other physicians, celebrated for curing
catarrh was procured, and so on till these
incomparable cures now include diseases
of the lungs, kidneys, female weakness,
rheumatism and nervous debility.
This new method of “one remedy for
one disease” must appeal to the common
sense of all sufferers, many of whom have
experienced the ill effects, and thoroughly
realize the absurdity of the claims of Pat-
ent Medicines which are guaranteed to
cure every ill out of a single bottle, and the
. use of which, as statistics prove, has ruin-
ed more stomachs than alcohol. A cir-
cular describing these new remedies is

Bismarck‘s ' Strategy.
While the Germans were laying siege to
Paris about twenty years ago M. Thiers
came out of the city to consult with Bis-
marck about the proposed capitulation.
Of course it was the Frenchman’s duty to
present a cheerful front and to seek to con-
vey the impression that things were not in
so desperate a condition in Paris as the be-
siegers might suppose. On the other hand,
_. Bismarck was pretty well satisfied that the
besieged Parisians were being starved out,
but of course he intimated no such thing
in the .presence of M. Thiers. But after
the conference Bismarck invited M. Thiers
to dinner, and the Frenchman only too
gayly accepted the invitation.
Then it was that the wily German no-
ticed that M. Thiers ate voraciously of the
vegetables and breads, rejected the canned
and pickled foods, and partook with seem-
ing avidity of the fresh meat. This con-
firmed Bismark’s suspicions—Paris was
starving. After M. Thiers went back into
the city there was found in the lavatory
adjoining the apartment assigned to him at
Bismarck’s headquarters part of a Paris
newspaper, and from certain items in this
bit of newspaper it was lalrued that the
condition of things in Paris was even more
desperate than had been supposed—Eugene
Field in Chicago News.

There are many ways by which the stars
respond to inquirers respecting the secrets
of the future. One of the simplest is to take
the first star you notice, count the umber
between it and the Milky Way, h ve that,
and it will give you the number of letters
in your husband’s name. Another is to
select the number of stars in a constella-
tion, add it to the date of your birth, and
divide the w’nolc by twelve, keep the result
in your mind until you shake hands with
some one, then add the letters in that per-
son’s name to what you have, ill vide by
seven, and you will get the number of
months before you will be married. If it
should run over thirteen and be even you’ll
marry a young man, if uneven an old one.
If over twice thirteen and even he will be
red headed, if uneven he will be bald and
very rich.
To tell whether your future husband will
be fond of you and trusting, or jealous and
,tiredcf you, select a star as you first cast up
} our eyes, and count the. number between
it and the “dipper”or “cancer” and add
thirteen. Halve that, and if the result he
even he will adore you, if uneven you will
have no peace. Clouds slnmting across the

‘ The Shorthand' IIIuclnnc.
The typewriter is now such a universally
employed machine that it is not surprising
that it should have suggested other instru-
ments of a similar character. One of these is
a shorthand typewriter, which has been in—
vented by Mr. G. K. Anderson, of Boston,
and by means of which an expert operator
can easily take down the words of a public
speaker as rapidly as they are uttered. Af-
ter five or six weeks’ practice an intelli-
gent person can gain a speed of 100 words
per minute, at least so says the inventor.
And this would not seem to be an extrava-
gant estimate when we are told that about
250 words can be printed by this instru-
ment with the same number of strokes
which will print only fifty words on the or-
dinary typewriter. The instrument is much
simpler than its prototype, for it deals
only with the principal letters of the alpha-
bet, others being represented by com-
pounds of them. The signs are impressed
upon a moving tape, as in so many print-
ing telegraphic machines now in use—New
York Telegram.
The usual treatment of catarrh is very
unsatisfactory, as thousands of despairing
patients can testify. A trustworthy med-
ical writer says z—“Proper local treatment
is positively necessary to success, but
most of the remedies in general use by
physicians afford but temporary benefit.
A cure cannot be expected from snuifs,
powders. douches and washes.” Ely’s

the important requisites of quick action,
specific curative power with perfect safety

No 30an Road to Learning.
There is no royal road to learning; ap- .
plication, work, continuity and enthusiasm
are its conditions. It is true the dead
languages are not in daily use in the pul—
pit, the forum Or business: that science,
philosophy, history, belles lettres do not of
themselves cure souls or patients, win
causes or coin money. It is true that
modern languages, with their exhaustless
stores of priceless learning, claim equal re—
gard and study. But those better and
more safely navigate the stream who know
it from source to delta, and whose vision is
not bounded by the territory where they
ply their trade. The languages not only
give grace and accuracy to the expression
of thoughts, open the treasure houses of
knowledge, furnish the weaponsto over-
come error and prejudice,‘ but through
them Wilkinson wrote the lives of
Pharaohs who had been forgotten before
history was born, and Layard Rawlinson
and others have’ dug from under the Tower
of Babel and declphered the library of
Nebuchadnezzar, and by its testimony
overthrown the speculations of infidelity,
corroborated the Bible and buttressal the
faith of Christendom.
Science has made plain the secrets of
animate and inanimate nature, and phi-
losophy has mapped the mind. Compan-
ionship and familiarity with the worthies,
the thoughts, the achievements and the
discoveries of other times so influence
character, so enlarge the intellect. so in-
crease thc ability, the grasp, and sift and
find the truth, that one so privileged is
promoted in his vocation from a soldier to
a knight; his work is not labor, but love,
and while lre adorns and honors. his spe-
cialty, his manhood adds, to the value and
influence of his citizenship. We are the
heirs of all the accumulations of the past,
but we cannot prove our title and secure
our inheritance by the decree of the surro-
gate or the award of courts of probate. It
comes only through the honest acquisition
of aliberal education—Chauncey M. De-
new.
