CITIES’ ODD NAMES

Few National Capitals Are Called After Noted Citizens. Many Municipalities In State* Commemorate Famous Men of History, But Not Many of Them Are Americans. —.—; : - ■ ■■ ■■" '■ There used to be a saying that to reach the heights of fame a man must have a street, a town and a cigar named after him. But It is an odd fact that while many men achieve such greatness, there are only one or two who have had the capitals of nations named for them. There is, of course, Washington, named after the first president; Petrograd, named for its founder, Peter the Great, and Constantinople, named for the great but beyond these the capitals of the various countries have received their names by reason of their climate, their geographic position or some touch of sentiment, a writer in the Philadelphia North American observes. ' ” < Changing the name of the capital has been frequently done. Indeed It was only with the beginning of the present war that St. Petersburg became Petrograd, eliminating the German “burg,” whose choosing has always been a mystery to the Russian people. Tokyo, the capital of Japan; has also had its name changed, for less than fifty years agio it was known as “Yeddo,” a Japanese word meaning estuary gate. When the mikado took up his residence there, however, he changed the name to Tokyo, mining eastern capital, thus differentiating It from the former capital, which had been called Saikyo, or western capital. Another capital which has been rechrlstened within recent years Is Christiania, the capital- of Norway, which derives Its name from King Christian IV, who Mfllt the now-fa-mous city after the destruction by fire of the old capital Oslo. • It was his desire to make It the most modern and most beautiful of cities, and he took so great a personal interest in It that when It came to a name everyone urged that it be called for him, and Christiania was finally adopted as being more artisitlc than Chrlstlanville or burg. There are very few great cities of the United States named for Americans, but there are many which commemorate famous men of history. Of those named for Americans, there are, among others,' Jefferson City, Mo.; Madison, Wls.; Lincoln, Neb.; and Houston, Tex., while there are also many cities which tell in their names the stories of gallant priests who started missions among the Indians, and were often the first white men to .penetrate into the depths of the wilderness. San Francisco Is named, It is true, for St Francis, but the monks <of that order are really the ones whose deeds the rity commemorates; and there are, besides, Hennepin, Minn., find Marquette, Wls., whose names tell mute stories of the priests. The majority of the larger cities are, however, named for Englishmen or Frenchmen, for when the cities received their christening no one dreamed that the time would come when the vast new country would be a pation of itself. Thus New York was named for the duke of York, St. Louis for the king of France, Pittsburgh for Lord Pitt, Baltimore for Lord Baltimore, New Orleans for fce duke of'Orleans, and so on through a long list of names that have now become most thoroughly Americanized In the thoughts of the whole world.

In Australia the habit of naming cities after statesmen is more prevalent than in any other country, and the majority of its larger town? bring to mind men who have helped to make history. Thus Melbourne recalls Lord Melbourne; Sydney was named after Thomas Townsend, first viscount Sydney, and at that time secretary of state for the colonies, and Adelaide, another of Australia’s capital cities, keeps' green the memory of Queen Adelaide, wife of William IV.

Beware Nap After Dinner.

’ Coiffon, a French physician, has discovered that the desire of many people to go quickly to sleep after eating ls\ likely to indicate Indigestion and dyspepsia. He cites a number of cases In which people have been seized by an unconquerable desire to sleep even after a light meal. Thin people are much more likely to hunt a sofa after dinner than fat people, since their thinness Is likely to indicate improper digestion, which 'also makes them sleepy.

House Flies Shout-Lived.

The average life of 3,000 caged house files has been found by R. H. Hutchinson and others to be slightly more than ten days, the greatest age noted having been seventy days. Egg laying usually begins in four or five days after the emergence of the adult fly, but sometime in two and one-half days. This period is greatly Influenced by temperature, but also by humidity and the kind and quality of the food of -both larvae and adults. , ■ '

Conjugal Foresight

A famous physician, asked at the New York Academy of Medicine why he wore rubbers on a day when the streets were perfectly dry,, replied: "My wfffe runs down the street after me with them when I don’t. I wear them to keep her from getting pass aaonia.” '

Acts For 1917 Arrive.

Jesse Nichols clerk of the Jasper circuit court,,, has received from the secretary of state Jasper county’s allotment of the Acts of the 1917 General Assembly of the state of Indiana. ilhe volume contains eight hundred and sixty-four pages and the clerk is to distribute them as provided by law, which we quote here from Burns. Revised Statutes, 1914, section 9202: “It is hereby made the duty of each county clerk* upon delivery to him of the acts consigned, to send to the secretary of state by first mail a statement under .the seal of his office showing his receipt of said acts; and it is made the further duty of the county c’eik to distribute the acts received by him, as follows, to-wit: To each judged - the city, circuit or. superior court, one copy; to the pros 4 ecuting attorney and each city ‘attorney, and each city clerk for the use of the common council, one cony; to each newspaper .published in said county, one copy: to each university, college, township or other public library, one copy; to each county officer and each justice of the peace, one copy; to each township trustee and to each town or city tschcol trustee, one copy; the residue of each such copies to be distributed by the clerk upon application.” . When receipts have been received from each clerk of the state the governor issus a proclamation putting the laws contained in the acts in force.

The completion at this time of these coaling plants of the Atlantic terminal of the canal is considered highly important.

When Postage Cost $lO an Ounce.

San Francisco has an Interesting history. The first settlement dates from 1776. The United States flag was raised over the town in 1846. Two years later the city had an estimated population of 20,000, caused by the inrush of fortune seekers. The first regular overland mail communication with the East was established by pony express in 1860, the charge for postage being $5 for half an ounce. —Popular Science Monthly.
