Pierce by letter, the sufferer consults a skillful spe cialist who for thirty years has been chief consulting physician to the great Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y.

THE NAMES OF FLOWERS Pretty and Teculiar Ximei Given to Them and Their Origin. The gladlolns (little sword), Is so called probably from its sharp, sword ehaped leaves; and the eglantine, (di minutive of the French aiguille,) from its piercing, needle-like thorns, says a writer in St. Nicholas. Cocoanut is from the Spnnish coco, or bugbear, de scriptive of the queer, impish little face at the base of the hairy nut. Nasturtium, which means "nose twister," gives a picture of the per son smelling the blossom and invol untarily contorting his features from the stinging and pungent odor. Pink introduces us to a group of words that at first sight seem very oddly i!'- matehed, for this daintily edged flower gets its name pink from the Dutch verb pinken, to pick out with a sharp instrument, as a border is pinked in notched scallops for decoration. Charming pictures are given by the "sun-dew," with its sparkling leaves; "the Daisie, or else the eye of the day," as Chaucer calls it. from its habit of opening at dawn, and the asters aro the "stars" of the field. The exquisite blue speedwell and the beckoning sprays of traveler's joy seem to fling us greetings from mead ow ana liedge-row. The bright little heartease preaches content, and there is a sort of moral in the rough brush wood and tangled vines dabrusca) and : the kindred adjective brusque. The old word teasen meant to card wool. I and hence we get both "tease," which j Is a rubbing up the fur in a wrong di ; rection, to speak figuratively, and i teasel, a prickly, tliistle-like plant i whose flower-heads, when dry, are sometimes used for raising the nap on woolen cloth. Freight Cars. The introduction of freight cars of 80,000 pounds to 110,000 pounds car rying capacity renewed the "large car" question, which is always a fruit ful subject for discussion among rail way officials of the operating and ear departments. The 60,000-pound car which has been practically the stand ard, dates back only to ISSS. In ISTo the normal capacity was from 20,000 to 25.000 pounds, and in ISB. r > this nor mal capacity had grown to 40.000 and 50,000. In that year a committee of the Master Car Builders' Association made a report recommending certain standard dimensions for GO,OOO-pound cars, but such cars were then quite exceptional. Few cars of less than GO,OOO pounds capacity are now built for ordinary freight service, but on the other hand there is a decided tendency to increase the capacity to 70,000 and SO,OOO pounds. Even this is not the limit, however, for several hundred steel cars of 100,000 pounds, and even 110.- 000 pounds capacity, are in service. The Whitehead Torpedo. Tho Whitehead torpedo, of which so much is heard, is 16 feet 5 inches lonpr, 17.7 inches greatest diameter, and weighs ready for service, 1,100 pounds. It carries 220 pounds of wet guncotton at a speed of about 28 knots per hour, and at that speed it has a range of about 850 yards. This tor pedo is built of steel and is propelled by two two-bladed screws, revolving In opposite directions on the same axis, to neutralize the rolling tenden cy of the torpedo. The screws are operated by a three-cylinder engine driven by air compressed to 1,350 pounds per square Inch; and an intri cate apparatus, called the Obry gear. Is used to automatically keep the tor pedo pointed straight during the run. This Obry gear is essentially a gyro scope controlling the valves of the steering engine, which operates two rigid'.y connected vertical rudders. Copper Supply of Newfoundland. The copper supply of Newfoundland }s said to be practically inexhaustible. Tho island is now the sixth copper pro ducing country in the world. This in dustry was first established in New foundland in ISG4, when Tilt Cove began to occupy the attention of cap italists. During recent years very sat isfactory results have been achieved in that district. These mines pro duced last year over seventy thousand tons of ore at a profit of more than §115,000. The records for 189G are somewhat incomplete, but they show an export from Newfoundland of 4G0,- 311 tons of copper ore, 50,730 tons of regulus, and 5,240 of ingots, valued at about $11,500,000. It is estimated that the country has produced fifty thou sand tons of fine copper, worth fifteen million dollars, the greater part of this being turned out during the past tweuity-five years. Ancient Marble Ouarrlec. The ancient marble quarries in Syn nada arc again being worked. The quarries are situate some 20 kiloms from Karahissar, and the marbles, called Phrygian, Mygdonians or Do cimia. were in ancient Rome regarded as emblems of luxury and wealth. Many sorts are found, namely, white statuary marble of a remarkably fine grain; a transparent marble similar to onyx and also yellow, blue and gray marbles, all very fine.

His father, Nicholas Fish, is a banker at 120 Broadway and lives at 16 Irving place. One of his uncles is Stuyvesant Fish, President of the Illinois Central railroad. Another un cle Is Hamilton Fish, who was speaker of the New York Assembly in ISOS and 1896. His grandfather was the first Hamilton Fish, who was Secre tary of State under Grant. Young- Fish was about 26 years old. Like most members of the family he was very tall, standing 6 feet, 3 inches in his stocking feet. He was of pow erful build, though stoop-shouldered. For two or three years he was a stu dent at Columbia University, of which his father has been a trustee for many years. He gave little attention to his studies, but devoted a good deal to athletics, particularly to rowing. He was one of the strongest oars in the Columb:a 'Varsity crew of 1595, which upset all calculations by defeating Cornell and the University of Pennsyl vania at Poughkeepsie. Soon after this Fish left college and went out to Utah to rough it on a railroad. For several months he worked as a brake man, at the end of which time h* jammed his index finger in coupling cars. He came back to New York in 1596 to have the finger amputated, and remained here most of the time until six or eight months ago. Fish was always of a roving and ad venturous disposition, and It was merely a verification of his friends' predictions when news came from the West that "Ham" Fish had joined Roosevelt's rough riders. While the regiment was In process of organiza tion at San Antonia, Tex., Fish receiv ed a Sergeant's commission in h'.a company. Fish's prowess was displayed on sev eral occasions while he was in this city in fist fights which he had, in most of which he was victorious. In spite of these exploits. Fish was ordinarily the best natured of men. and had hosts of friends who swore by him, many of them Columbia students and members of prominent New York families. Fish was a member of the Union League Club and the St. Nicholas so ciety. He belonged to the Delta I'si college fraternity. Capt. Allyn Capron was born iu Florida, and entered the Military Academy in 1563. He was graduated in ISG7, and received an appointment as Second Lieutenant of Artillery. In IS7I he became First Lieutenant, and Captain in 188 S. He was graduated from the Artillery School with honor In 1573. Capt. Capron was in com mand of Company E of the First Artil lery, and was twenty-fifth on the list for promotion. Among the wounded was Major Bell, a Pennsylvanian. He served during the civil war in the Eighty-sixth Ohio, and when honorably mustered out he became Captain of an independent company of cavalry which he raised in his native state. Afterward he served as a Captain in the Thirteenth Penn sylvania Cavalry until in 1865 he was mustered out The next year he was appointed Seoond Lieutenant in the Seventh regular cavalry. He became First Lieutenant in 1567, Captain In 1876, and in 1596 he was promoted to Major of the First Cavalry. He was brevetted Lieutenant-Colonel in 1390 tor gallant services. Capt. Knox is in command of Com pany Kof the First Cavalry. He is a Tennesseean and entered the Military Academy in 1866. He was appointed Second Lieutenant In IS7O, First Lieu tenant in 1877 and Captain in 1889. Capt. McCormick was born in Ohio, and entered West Point in 1872. He was graduated in 1876 and was appoin ted Second Lieutenant in the Tenth Cavalry. He became First Lieutenant in 1878 and Captain in 1895. He is a graduate of the infantry and cavalry school. Lieut.

This Teuton is said to "turn the scale" at fifty stone, and may claim to be the heaviest man on earth. He measures over 100 inches round the waist, and 64 inches round the thigh; his enor mous weight does not apparently in convenience Mm, for he is active and in robust health. He is described as a well-to-do, middle-aged, good-looking farmer, who is also a keen sportsman, being an excellent all-round shot with the rifle. Naturally his gigantic pro portions have made him an object of curiosity in his part of Germany. A Trade That Kills. Makers of wall-paper grow pale and ick from the arsenic in its coloring and matchmakers lose strength and vitality from the excess of phosphorus used in their business. But mankind is by nature brave and very few are de terred from action because of supposed danger.

Oibralter was taken by the English in 1704. during the war of the Spanish succession, a war which was provoked by the aggressive policy oi France in endeavoring to place a monarch of the French family upon the Spanish throne, and tu'.s consolidate the two kingdoms into cue. The fortress was then captured, aluost by surprise, though the Spaniaids and French, ap pelating the strategic value of the place, made des e.ate efforts to re cover it. but we.e lepulsed at every point. Retv.een the date of its capture Ltii 177S ie r c ud efforts were made by Spain to reiuver the fortress, and in the laiter ye. tae greatest armament that was ever bio.:-ht to bear upon a besieged piai e !;iy~ before Gibraltar. The lasied. off and on, for many moi.tiis. T.ie Investing force comprised I2.0«J0 troops of France, over twice as many t.f the test infantry of Spain, and the fleet consisted of forty-seven sh.ps. all three-deckers: ten great floating batteries, esteemed invincible*, cairying 212 guns, innumerable frig ates, bomb-ketches, cutters, gun and mortar boats. For weeks together over 6.000 shells a day were thrown into the town and repeated attempts were made to storm the works, but the little gar rison of only 7.000 men rebelled every assault and finally succeeded in belt ing off the allied fleet. The blockade began June 21. 177 W. and lasted until February. 1783, when the garrison was finally relieved by the arrival of a I British fleet and army. Since that time the fortifications of Gibraltar have been so improved and increased that it is regarded as the strongest fortress in the world. The British gov ernment maintains there a garrison of from 5,000 to 10.000 m«n, with pro visions for six months, and it is said the supply of military material is suf ficient to enable the fortress to stand a siege of indefinite length.
