Sheriff Tanner said he was overpowered by twenty-five white men and the keys taken from him. The word 'apron' was originally 'napron', derived from the word 'napkin' or 'napery.' Some early writer dropped the 'n' and we have 'apron.' ' The same is true of 'orange' which was originally known by the Spanish name "naranga," which became in English "norange."

Indian Gift A deed signed by Indian chiefs seven years before the Revolutionary war, the signatures consisting of figures of birds, fishrnnd other animals forming the symbols of the tribes concerned, wfeuld ordinarily be regarded its u historical curiosity. But I an ancient, document of this description became endowed with Jhlghly practical Importance when It was of- I fered as evidence in litigation over' title to 2,500 acres of forest land In Hamilton county.

I Many Industrial dust respirators Rnd J many diff^^nt fabrics, ranging from I cheesecloth and absorbent cotton to I canton flunnef, were used In the lab- | oratory tests made by S. H. Kntz, O. W. Srplth and E. G. Meiter. Tobacco smoke was used as a criterion because, being excessively difficult to arrest, it affords n severe test for the respirators. While their use among workers In such dusty Industries as mining should be encouraged, the tents show that respirators cannot be regarded us a final safeguurd, the experts say. Australian Exploration A new expedition with a caravan of 25 camels has started for the thirsty Interior of Australia. Dr. Herbert Basedow, the leader, is a geologist, but he does not believe all ihat men who follow the mirage of gold have told him.

At the time pickpocket^ thieves and holdup men had an open season all year round. The officials extended an Invitation to Captain Nolan to apply these methods. He came, he saw, he established a dead-line, bought new uniforms for the 40 members of the police force and In two weeks the crime wave disappeared like a marcel in hot weather. , The only trouble left to the police, Commissioner Nolan said, "is that neither my force nor I have anything to do." , a ,r n 1 .

Crop Area F&llt Off as Population Gains Washington.?For the first time in history there has been a decrease In the crop area of the United States. Respite a marked Increase in population, there was a reduction in the last five years of 19,000,000 acres in the area of harvested crops, the Department of Agriculture has disclosed In an analysis of the agricultural census statistics. Notwithstanding the decrease, the crop area still la sufficient, In the opinion of departxqjeat experts, to maintain a large volume f agricultural exports. v 77" The 19,000,000 acres have reverted to pasture or hare been allowed to lie Idle, the cause being attributed chiefly to the agricultural depression of the last five years. Largely as a result of the war-time prices, about 40,000,000 acrea of pasture land were plowed up and put Itfto crops between 1909 and 1919, and ?bout 5,000,000 acres of forest land cleared for crop*. Nearly half of total, experts believe, was used to meet the Increased European demand for foodstuffs. Owing to the extraordinary demands of the war period, the acrAge of crop land In 1919 was nearly ten years ahead of what had b^en~ ihe previous rate of expansion relative to increase of population. Plotted Path of the Hurricane by Radio Washington.?The use of the radio compass In plotting I he course of a storm has beeu revealed by an experiment made during the recent hurrli'Rtic which swept the West Indies and (he roast of Florida, according to a statement from the Navy department. !
