A dunce is named after Duns Scotus, the chief and lader of the Echoolmen who were in opposition to 'vhat w’as called “the new learning” in the 16th century. It is easy to see how’ readily convertible the term would be. An'v opponent of the new l^^a'•T^ini^ would be apt to be referred to as a Duns- man, or, more briefly, as a Duns, to indicate that he held the view’s of which Duns Scotus was the most en.i- nent representative. But as the time went on and the new learning tri umphed to call any one a Dunsman or a dunce would be equivalent to de scribing him not merely as opposed to a certain set of doctrines, but as Inca pable of learning and enlightenment It is certainly hard upon Dnns Sco- lus, as Archbishop Trench has re marked that he, “the siibtle doctor” by preeminence the “wltties of the ^hool divines,” as Hooker terms him, should have his name handed down future ages as a synonym for invincible stupidity. r,-f.

London, Sept. 2.—Turkey has at lastdefinitely awarded the contract for a battleship of the so-called “Dreadnought” t.vpe to W. G. Arm strong, Whitworth & Company, of Newcastle-on-Tyne and to Vickers Ivimited, the latter to furnish the armament. The government reserves ther ight of ordering another ves sel at the same price. The new battleship It is said, will be the largest warship in the world. Thep rice to be paid is considerably higher than that at which the Beth lehem Steel Company of America in conjunction with another English finn offered to build the ships. How ever, as the grand vizier candidly told a diplomat who was supporting the tender of the American company, Turkey is placing the contract w’lth the successful tenderers will obtain compensation in other directions which will more than make up for the increased cost of the ship. It has not yet been disclosed of what these compensations will con sist, but it is generally understood that the British minister at Constan tinople was able to inform the Porte that the acceptance of the Armstrong tender might induce the British gov ernment to loow with a kindlier eye on the Turkish proposals for the set tlement of certain questions outstand ing between the tw’o countries. Among these w’ere questions arising out of the steamboat monopoly held by a British company to operate steamers on Turkish rivers; non-in terference with Turkey’s plans in Al bania; and the long standing dis pute over the building of the Bagdad railway. On the latter subject active negotiations are now proceeding in the Turkish capital, with good pros pects of success and the ultimate completion of the line. Besides the support of the govern ment the British shipbuilders have good press agents, and frequent par agraphs appear in the Ixjndon papers in which it is intimated that among other contracts that for the building of the Chilian warshis is to be given to England. As a matter of fact these contracts have not been let and it may be months before they are. American, British and continental firms all have agents in the Chilian capital and even before the fall of the late government very littlep rogress had been made towards the signing of the contracts.

PARKER-GARDNER COMPANY I THE PRESENT INSTANT. "The tongue destroys a greater horde,” The Turk asserts, ‘‘than does the sford.” The Persian proverb w’isely saith. "A lengthy tongue—an early death.” Or sometimes takes this form instead; “Don’t let your tongue cut off your head.’ “The tongue can speak a word whose speed.” Says the Chinese, “outstripesthe steed.” While Arab sages this impart; ’ The tongue’s great storehouse is the heart.” An effort is at last to be made to relieve the newspapers of England from some of the evils they suffer under the present law of libel. Be sides having to pay many claims of a blackmailing character, invariably when a newspaper defends an action for libel the jury gives the claim ant heavy damages, very often against the advice of the judge. To avoid this Sir George Toulmin has introduced a bill in the house of com mons, which provides that if a judge is satisfied that the alleged lib el is trivial, and that the words com plained of have been published in good faith, he may stay all pro ceedings. unless the plaintiff gives se curity for the defedanfs costs. Other provisions of the bill are that fair rnd accurate reports of public meetings, proceedings in court and the finding of the courts, al though the finding be subsequently varied, and any fair and bona fide comment thereon, shall be privileged. At present a paper can noT comment on anv verdict until it has reached the final court by which time in many cases, all public interest in the matter has been lost. Science Defines It as the Hundredth Part of a Second. e A congress of European astrono mers decided that the present time— that Is, the the present moment at any particular instant — consists of the hundredth part of a second. This has been settled on because these men of science have thought that it represented the tiniest fraction of time w’hich could be appreciated by the human brain. Yet the thousandth part of a second is actually used in physical science, esiiecially in certain important uses of electricity. For sclent ific purposes, however, the official present moment flashes from the future to the past in the hundredth part of a second. This cannot seem so remarkable w’hen it is recalled'that speed records for both bourses and men runners are officially calculated in fractions as small as one fifth of a second. But in astronomy, it is needed to have the hundredth, part of a second, for in that moment light can travel 2,000 miles. . So time, which is, after all, only a figure of speech andls a mystery that no human brain can un derstand or fathom, must be consider ed relatively to one’s sensations. The lime to pull an aching tooth Is really no longer to a sufferer than a whole night spent in sound sleep. It is mode of the person's actual life.

One of the interesting features of the procession ol the Gorsedd ^ards to the Mvstic Circle at the Eib..’id- fod, the national assembly of We 5h bards at Carmarthen, Wales, was the presentation of a daughter of the poet, Henry W. IX)ngfellow, to ^ venerable Archdruid. In company with a party of Welsh-Americans. the poet’s da'agh- ter made the pilgrimage from Boston and the Welsh-Americans expect to make an annual pilgrimage to the gathering. Before the presentation a representation of the Breton Gorsedd mounted the I^gan-stone and made an address in excellent Welsh. The same day also taw the investiture and initiation of the successful can didates for bardic degres. The town of Wolverhampton is all excitement over the refusal by its austere officials of a presentation portrait of Captain Webb, the famous channel swimmer. Captain Webb was a native of Wolverhampton; in tbe painting he is shown wearing t e customary swimming trunks only, and this brevity of attire affected the sensibilities of local officials. George Phoenix, the artist, m present- Ine the picture, recommended tnat it be hung in the Municipal Baths, which in winter are used also for public meetings. xi. In a letter acknowledging the ar tist's offer tie town clerk says that the chairman of the Baths comm ttee considered the portrait an excellent one in every respect but could not recommend the committee t^o accept it. The artist is inviting the public to his studio to pass upoii the pro priety of his work, and local feel ing runs high. Collecting calendars is a poor way to save time.
