Some small change and a few small articles were taken, including a magazine 'pistol. I Tie C. N. & L. freight office was also broken into, the robber breaking a! pane to get his hand on the latch. Mostly pennies, were the missing ar- j tides. i | The following clipped from the | San Francisco Call, furnishes a I very clever illustration of the incon- j gruities of our English language,; r 1 rr i j and easily accounts lor aimcuines encountered by many foreigners in! trying to master our language: We'll begin with a box, and the i plural is boxes, But the plural of ox should be | oxen, not oxes; Then one fowl is goose, but two I are called geese, Yet the plural of moose should J never be meese; You may find a lone mouse or a whole lot of mice, But the plural of house is hoGses, j not hice. But the pural of man is always! called men. Why shouldn't the plural of pan be | called pen? The cow in plural may be cows or kine, But a bow if repeated is never called bine. And the plural of vow is vows, not j vine. And if I speak of a foot and you 1 show me your feet. And I give you a boot, would a pair i be called beet? If one is a tooth and the whole j set are teeth? Why shouldn't the plural of booth | be called beeth? If the singular is this and the plural is these, Should the plural of kiss be nicknamed keese? ;Then one may be that, and three would be those. | Yet hat in the plural would never be hose. And the plural of rat is rats, not rose. Then masculine pronouns are, he, his and him. . But imagine the feminine, she, shis and shim. So English, I think, you all will agree, I? the most wonderful language you ever did see. Kobert Norris Gets Manhattan Lite. New York Spectator, November 13.
