When the Oregon arrived at Rio,
Capt. Clark found a batch of instruc
tions from the strategy board awaiting
him. Tbeacknowledgement of receipt
of them which be sent back to Wash
ington was short and to the point, and
illustrates what sort of a man Clark is.
“Don'ttaogls me up with instructions,"
he wired, “I am not afraid of the whole
Spanish squadron." The whole coun
try will wish for Clark to have the
opportunity te test hie splendid ship,
which he so much desires.
Ssnor Castillo insists that it would
bo belter for him to remain lbs am
bassador of Spain at Paris than to go
into Sagasta's cabinet for the reason
that-France desires a speedy peace be
tween Spain and the United States.
The cabinet's policy, according to tbe
annodnebmoot, is to be one of war to
tbe utmost, and Benor Castillo was
evidently selected because be was sup
posed to bo iu sympathy with that
view. re»ainie< W Peris, hows
ever, maybe taken to mean that he
thinks, with the French government,
that Spain’s best policy is to secure
peace atthe lariiest possible moment,
and that be desires to be at band to
traotimfo the French government’s,
representations to Madrid with all
possible force and dispatch. Senor
Castillo probably thinks it Is not nec
essary to a vindication of Spanish
honor that Spain should have tbe life
beaten out of her —Savannah News.

ETYMOLOGY OF “HURRAH?*
W ' T~. Oet u rfMt I
w J. Suratley, to une his plain Eng
lish name, us with a copy
at a letter he has addressed to The In
stitute and Lectorere’ Gaxette on the
etymology of the word “Hurrahl’
which Mr. Spratley spells “Hoorah!
We barn been vaguely cherishing tbe
2XZt it had a Russian origin, but
Mr. Spratley takes us to ancient Egypt
in his etymological search. He thinks
‘‘‘i hr, nr> rionht t hat the Egyptian
«&Ss ™t into battle to the inspirit
ing cheer of Hooßa! Hooßa! Hooßal’ ”
and if the average questioning man Saks
why, he staggers him with this: "Be
muse Hooßa tin the tongue at the
Thotluues and Barneses) means ‘The
king, the king, the king!’ Yea, more. As
*Ba* means not only king, but also God
and man. the concentrated meaning of
the cry would be, ‘For God, king and
country!’ What more loyal, what more
patriotic, what more, devout?” What,
indeed!
But lest we should haply still doubt,
to Egymtian roots, is Ba-pa-Ra-
«r Ba-pa-Hoo-Ra-ta-y, which
means “Son of heaven, king of the
two hemispheres,’' and if the authority
«f a gentleman <rf this descent is not
rood enough for the mere doubter, even
STfla-pi eta, may well despair of
convincing him. More than this, if Mr.
Spratley’s Egyptian name means any-
tide is an open question—il
also signifies “King of lower Egypt and
kwg of upper Egypt,” or “Emperor
eftheWorld.” But what we chiefly
like M for Is that it seems to settie an
cHwy pwM that may well have baffled
the philologist—namely, the genesis of
the once familiar refrain “Ta-ra-ra
boom-de-ay.” Is *• possible that Miss
Lottie Collins and the street urchin
have been singing ancient Egyptian, aS
Mr. Jourdain spoke prose, without
knowing it?—London Chronicle
