A

"BUQ BIBLE.**

The Oily Ooo In America—Other Throe Owned In Kngland.

James Vincent. Sr., of Tabor, Iowa, owns the only copy of the "Bug bible" In the United States, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. So he writes to Librarian Stevenson of the Allegheny parnegle Hbrary. There is no direct offer of sale, but a suggestion that it should be in some public library. Mr. Vincent says the bible was brought to this country In 1848 and Chat It is one of the only four copies extant, the remaining three being in English collections. He says it bears date of 1549 and has the introaions to the queer translation of a word duction by Miles Coverdale. His alluwhich has given this bible the name "Bug" is correct, and if he states the date accurately it is a more the "Bug bible." in the fifth verse of the nine-ty-first psalm the reading is: "Thou shalt not need to be afraid for any bugfeps by night," whereas the authorized version has "terror" for "bugges" —possibly a word akin with bogie and not an old Ifinglish plural of bug. Then Mr. Vincent alludes to this curious note of the editor to the third chapter of the first epistle of St. Peter, where the text alludes to the wife, Sara: "And If she be not obedient and helpful unto him (he) endeavoreth to beat the fear of God into her head, that thereby she may be compelled to learn her duty and to do it." Such were sixteenth century Ideas of disciplining a wife. Mr. Stevenson says he has no fund available for the purchase of rare editions of the bible, for if once begun an approach to even a fine collection would entail a large expenditure. The "Bug bible" has Us much better known companions, all named from typographical errors, as the "Vinegar bible," which calls the parable of the vineyard that of the "vinegar" the "Pl®c®maker*8 bible," whleh contains the spoils doctrine by making place-

OMJrera, and not peacemakers, bless•d, and not least of all, the "Wicked MW«." which leaves "not" out of the •erenth commandment. In H77 there wag held in South Kensington, KagIwd, the Caxton memorial celebration in honor of the 490th auiveraary of Caston'a printing yiesa Put

But the bug error is also in the Matthews edition of 1649. It was in these days when the common people dared not possess a bible and William Lyndale was strangled to death. But what this Caxton exhibition solved was what as a literary mystery had ilicited inquiry for three centuries: Where was the Coverdale translation printed? It was settled to be Antwerp, Belgium, and curiously enough, that is where Mr. Vincent's bible was printed.

Whleh Aro In Oamsl Om,

Mention has been recently made of the disputed origin of the ward "teetotal," claimed ljy two inventors, una living in England and the other in America, and each of whom may have hit upon the word independently and for the different reasons assigned. To curious minded persons who like to know the whys, whens and wherefores of everything the origin of popular catchwords and figures of speech is an interesting subjeot.

The word'1machine,"as we use It politically, is another which, like "teetotal, is of donbtfnl parentage In the days of the old volunteer fire oampanles, which in large oities were potent factors in local polltios, the phrase "to ran with the machine" oame into eommon use, and it meant that a man to awoken of was identified with th&poiitiaal coterie of the fire company with whioh he trained. Tbe famons Boss Tweed began his career in New York "running with the machine" as a volunteer fireman. Yet the term as we now employ It was nsed in England Ions before. The Duke of Wellington, in a letter to a friend ib 1845 deploring the increasing Influence of popular agitation on the action of the houses of parliament, said: "Such is tbe operation of the machine as now eatablished that no individual, be bis oharacter, conduct In antecedent circumstances and his abilities wbqt they may, can have any personal influence in general." We may btkve derived otir term "the machine" from ow old volunteer fire company days, but in tbe England I of Wellington's time there wete no fire I companies exerting any political influenoe.

That mnchoverworked •pord "craqk" ied npiveioal vogue in connection

with Guitqnu's assassination of President Qartfjjd^ Wk it long before that applied by the late Don Piatt, who cjainjed to be ite inventor, to Horace Greeley, the purpose of it being to liken the famons editor to tbe crank of a hand organ, which is forever grinding out the same old tunes. The word, as we have now come to apply it, means muoh more and worse. It implies a condition of I mind verging npon insanity, and this has given rite to the erroneous notion 1 that it has its origin in the German word "krank." I The word "dago," now commonly applied to Italians alf"tver the country, oame originally from Louisiana, where it at first referred only to people of I Spanish origin^ but was later applied to ijtalians and Portuguese as well. The word' it a corruption of "Diego" (Janies), which is a CQjnmon Spanish name, San Diego being the patron saint I of the Spaniards.

Another word of incessant employI ment in American speech is "dnde,V I with its feminine complement, -"dudine." This may have oome to us from tbe old English word for clothes— "duds," in earlier times spelled "dudes."

Thackeray writes of one of his characters: "Her dresses were tvondesful, her bonnets marvelous. Few women could boast suoh dudes." Shakespeare, In "The Merry Wives of Windsor," vrtltee of a "bucke of dudes," meaning a basketful of clothes ready for. washing. It# present day literary currency dates from February, 1876, when the word appeared in Putnam's Magazine. But a famons New York clubman, Mr. Hermann Oelrichs, claims the credit of first starting it as a popular term of contempt at ridicule for an overdressed person. He claims that a youth of this type who passed by the Union club window with a mincing step provoked himself and another clubman to hum together an accompaniment to the youth'8 walk, thus. "Du, da, de, du du, du de," and that he remarked "Good enough dude is the proper name for it," and that thus the word was born.

The words "jingo" and "jingoism" are hIho of disputed derivation. We all know about the English music hall song which set. the word going with anew meaning in 1877, but the original coinage of the term "By jingo 1" is quite doubtful. In the Basque language the word jingo means God, and it is widely believed that "By jingo 1" was a form of oath with which the Basque sailors familiarized the English sailors and, through them, all English speaking people. But others believe the word is a corruption of St. Gingoulph. It is one of the oddities of popular wordmaking that the term "jingoism," a.s now used, is a complete travesty of the sentiment of tbe song from which it was taken. A jingo, either in England or America, is now set down as a man spoiling for a fight, eager for war at any cost. But the original mnsio hall song, with the jingo chorus, expressed exactly the opposite sentiment—a desire for peace. It began with "We don't want to fight," and its fiercest war note was struck in the declaration that if they had to do what they would rather not, they bad plenty of men, ships and money.

Speaking of "Brother Jonathan," there is no doubt abont its origin. When General Washington went to Massachusetts to take command of tbe Revolutionary army, he found'a great lack of ammunition and other supplies. He turned for aid to Governor Jonathan Trumbull of Connecticut, and got it, and in many etnergsnciefi of that period he nsed the phrase. "We must consult Brother Jonathan on the subject" The expression became nationally ourrent, and jt stands as the American parallel to "John Bull."—Baltimore Sun.

Disasters to Swallows.

Although swallows are such wonderfully quick eighted birds,and can change the direction of their flight with amazing rapidity and ease, it oooasionally happens that they either do not perceive the danger lying in their path or are not quick enough to avert it, for I have once or twice, while fly fishing for trout, accidentally knocked down and ptunned a swallow. Several instanoes have also been recorded of the poor bird being struck and killed by golf balls, and in one case at leae^even by a cricket balL

Ancient Heart*.

The transfer of Kosciufko's heart to tbe oastle at Bapperswill, Switzerland, recalls many stories of tbe crueaderi, who, dying in the Holy Land, sent their hearts* to friends at home. So afterward Sir Robert Peckbam died out of England in 1586, but his heart was not buried until 1569. The heart of John Baliol was embalmed by his widow's desire and inclosed in an ivory casket enameled with silver. And she, the loving Devorgilla, placed this casket on her table every day at mealtime and ordered it put on her own heart when she was borne to the tomb. Then there is the heart of the Bfnce, dear to elocutionists and stump speakers. For strange tales about hearts see the "Lives of the Troubadours," and that dreadfnl story by Barbey D'Aurevilly, "At a Dinner of Atheists."—Boston Journal.
