TITLES OF AFFECTION ALMOST ALL THE STATES HAVE POPULAR NICKNAMES. Many Sources of Suggestion, but Few of the Appellations Are Malicious —Geographical Features Have Given Rise to Some. Nearly everyone of the states of the I’nioujias a nickname suggestive of its thief product, physical character or historic association, and some of the I states have a dual nickname of two ] or more nicknames, which in most | cases appear to be equally popular and ■ about evenly employed in current usj. I California is called both ' "Golden State" and “El Dorado;’’ Connecticut is the “Nutmeg State." the “Freestone State," and also the "latnd of Steady Habits;" Delaware is the “Blue Hen State” and also the "Diamond State,” ir.d Georgia is the "Cracker State" and I also the “Empire State of the South." | Tlie sons of Illinois speak of it both , as tlie “Sucker State” and the “Prairie State;” Kansas answers to the name of "Sunflower State," “Central State” ‘ , and “Jayhekwei State;" Kentucky is I known as the “Blue Grass State" and | Louisiana is the "Pelican State” and the "Creole State.” Minnesotans affectionately or famil- ] iarly describe their state as the “Goph- | er State.” tho “Bread and Butter ■ State,” and the "New England of the West;” Michigan is the “Wolverine State" and the "Lake State;” Nebraska is the “Silver State" and the ’ Sage Hen State," and New York is the “Empire State” and the “Excelsior State.” if a man speaks of the “Old North State" or the “Turpentine State” or ; the “Tarheel State” he means North ( Carolina; Oregon is the "Beaver ! State” an.l the “Web Foot State;” ' South Dakota is the "Swing Cat State” and the “Blizzard State," “Washington is the “Chinook State" and the “EverI green State" and Virginia is repeatedly spoken of as the "Old Dominion,” the ".Mother of States” and the “Mother of Presidents.” The general nickname of Maryland is the “Old Line State” and it is sometimes called the “Oyster State” and the “Terrapin State." Maine is either the “Pine Tree State” or the “Lumber State.” Using geographical features as nicknames are Florida, the “Peninsula i State;” Massachusetts, the “Bay ' State;’’ Mississippi, the “Bayou State;" Tennessee the “Big Bend State;” i Vermont, the “Green Mountain State” I and West Virginia, “The Panhandle." j Animals give their names to Arkansas, j the “Bear State;” North Dakota, the “Flickertail State;” and Wisconsin, the “Badger State." Madame Sans-Genc. In spite of all the nursing and mourning in the city. Paris still re- ' tains a touch of gayety. It is related that a certain lawyer of Faris, whose delight it has always been to make solemn folks laugh, appeared the biller day as counsel for a woman charged with some not too grave misdemeanor. She was only a washerwoman, she was elderly and plain, and the court was distinctly bored “Gentlemen,” the lawyer exclaimed suddenly, addressing the bench, “gentlemen, you cannot find mv client guilty.” I "And why not?" asked the presiding magistrate somewhat sharply. "Because,” came the smooth reply, "she washes for General Jofl’re. and it ; Is her glorious privilege at this moment to be weeping into one of his ; handkerchiefs.-” The entire bench of magistrates i gftve strict attention to the ■ case. They,not only found the wash- ' erwoman guilty as charged, but added ten days to her sentence for stealing General Joffres handkerchief. Electric Battleship. Tlie United States is the first nation to use electricity in place of steam to propel a battleship. That will be the motive power cn the dreadnaught California —where it will he used according to a method that h;.j been thoroughly tested and perfected on the big 19,000-ton collier Jupiter, where it has proved most suecessful. The advantages are many. , tho speed of a vessel run by electricity can be instantly changed, the dangerous “racing” of the propellers in heavy seas can be prevented. Then, ::i electric-power plant occupies far less space and weighs less than marine engines that produce an equal amount of energy. Finally, the cost of maintenance and repairs is much less, and there is a great saving in ; j coal. The new dreadnaught will prob- : ably have two plants; if’ene gets out | of order, the ship can still proceed by I means of the other. Persian Lamb Fur. It is said that after enormous dan-1 gers and difficulties, the secret of producing the lambs from which the Per- | sian lamb fur is secured, has at length I been brought to America by an official i of the United States department of agriculture. This official, Doctor Young ] of Texas, made extensive investigations in Bokhara, and succeeded in discovering the kind of sheep whose lambs produce the so much sought aft- j er fur. Contrary to common belief, | the fur is not takan from unborn lambs, but from those a few days old. | It is said that there is possibility of our own department of agriculture taki ing up this work also, and that the lambs will be raised both in Canada and the United States. — East and West . .
