Some time ago, when a heated argu mont wan going on between v'ariouis pronunclation fledglinga-over the pro per pronunciation of the simple word cantonment, we undertook and (lid give a very exhaustive analysia of the word, Its derivation, meaning, pronouncia tion, etc. Unhappily, our treatment of the subject was of such a high or der that It went clean over the heads of the wranglers, among whom were some hIgh lights In the pronuncia tion profession. Anyway, our of forts -avallethed little, for', while the 'heat of argument hias dIed down, the mis-pronunelation still goes on. But, as we wvero going on to say, we took a flyer at cantonment antd now are ready to hand oult a lIttle do01) on another woigd, "Blolshevliki", which maybe is giving these gentlemten about as much concern as It did( us until we *tnrted out again to hunt an authori ty. In our exhaustive study of can tonment, already referred to, we went to headquarters, so-to-speak, viz., that valiant old gentleman speller and pro nunclator of English words, old mal Noah Webster. Now, as keen a judge of English words as your Uncle Noah was. he didn't claim any great dis Ilijetion as a purveyor of Russian, or at least lie didn't write any Russian ti< tionaries so far as we know.

After that in cident ai military guard was placed on ditty by his bed, the provost guard was sent for today and .Iohansen was locked up. In conlnection with the arrest, the wildest spy rumors heard, here since the war began were spread broadcast. These culminated in a report that eighi Gernans had been shot at sunrise. M il itary and naval authorities, while ac knowledgina that the .Johansen case wats being thoroughly investigated. de elared that the shooting story was absutrd. another persistent. story was that a muessage in Germ1iani code has been found on Johnsen and that a wireless statiin had h'0een unearthed in the dis trict destroyed by the lire after the explosion. .1.
