Surnames and Their Origin
KELSEY
Variation•--Keisy.
Racial Origin—English.
Source -A place name.
Here is a family name which though
It is properly classified as an English
one, really traces, back to an ultimate
Ce'itti•c origin rather than to Anglo-
Saxon sources. As a rfamd'ly mama,
however, it is just as likely to be borne
by descendants of theAngio-Saxons as
tJi:e Cornish -British from whom the
place name comes down,.
The village' or 'gown • of this name,
spelled Kelsey to -day, ie in. Lincoln-
eh'ire. An older spelling, and one
closer to, the original name in the
Corn?sh tongue, was "Kelsyck" or Ked
syc."
, 'Wel," in the ancient tongue of the
Cornish, signified a "neck" in the geo-
graphical sense, and the word "sy c" or
r
"syck" meant "dry."
The place name is, of eoumste, _ of
great antiquity, antedating the Anglo-
Saxon invasion of that section of Eng-
land., and like other plaoe 2iames in the
middle ages, it became that basis of a
fancily name indicating originally that

FENNESSY
Variations -- Finnessy,: O'Fennesaey,
O'Finnessy,
ilac lel Origin—Irish.
Source—A given name.
Here is an Irish family name wibich
while perhaps' not so widespread to-
day as •som-e.at'her Irish naineia, carries
with it much of histdrical romance.
This, name was born by one ofe.She
frost powerful clans in Ireland during
the Middle Ages, whioh was one of the
last in its section of the caun+tgy to go
down before the force of English arms.
The Gaelic form of the clan name
was "O'Fiangusa," derived from the.
given namie of the chieftain " Fiangus•,"
who led it into fame at a very early
period of the Middle Ages. The strong
hold of the clan. 1was near "Cashel of
the Kings" in Tipperary County.
The pronunciation of t e old Gaelic
name is not so different from that of
the modern•-Anglloized' form as might
be supposed from the spelling.
Light Without Heat Invented
in France.
A French) engineer has made a dis-
covery which, it is believed, will cause
a revolution in methods of illumina-
tion. At present most electric lamps
use up 70 per cent. of their energy in
giving out heat rather than light.
Eisler has constructed a lamp which'
gives• out light without heat. He makes
use of a vacuum tube through which a
phosphoresoent material is passed. As
soon as the electric current is passed
through this, a light is produced which
is brighter than that of the largest
lamps now in use.
The consumption of energy is only
15 watts an hour in a tube six metres
long and seven millimetres in dia-
meter,
No Death by Accident on
Railway in 50 Years.
There is a railroad in operation to-
day which - holds the remarkable re-
cord" of Hever thaving had an. accident
se. s'everetas t c .cause loss of life, says
Sa"Isoii'doris'despatch; "It must be a toy
, railroad," some one will say. But even
,those meet with dire catastrophes
sometimes. •
This is a real railroad, which has
been running for more than fifty years,
and is still running to -day. During that
time it has carriedmore than 1,000,-
000,000
,000,000,000 passengers and -not a life has
been lost due to accident on the road.
It is the North London Railway, begun
by Robert Stephenson.
Pick and Nick.
This is the season when picnics, are
in fullswing, but how many of the
thousand's who enjoy them couid_say
why they were given their name?
The explanation is simple. When, a
picnic was being arranged it was the
custom for those who were to be pre-
sent to promise to supply food and
drink.
A list of the things necessary was
drawn up and passed round, each per-
son picking .out the article's he or she
would supply. The name of the article
vias "nicked" on the list—that ins to
say, a mark was placed against it. The
open-air entertainment thus came to
be known as 'Pick and nick." The
custom is said to date from 1802.
Masterpieces of Music.
Many of the world's greatest master-
pieces are known to have been written
in an incredibly short time. The Mes-
siah of Handel is reported to have
taken the composer exactly"' twenty-
eight days. ' The Barber of Seville of
Rossini is" said to have been the work'
of a fortnight. La -Traviata of Verdi,'
if his, biographers are correct, was
done in less than one month. Sehu--'
bert often poured out this immortal
songs at the rate of three and four a
day. The gift of melody seems like a
kind of musical fountain—once set
flowing it continues without interrup•
tion in -a marvelous manner.

Soliloquy.
The roads of June' are paved with
shadows dancing, y g
The flowers new magic know,
Through trees, thick -leaved, the silver
moon is glancing,
The glad reeds whisper low.
Soft ivy -fingers at my pane are tapping,
When zephyrs drowsy dream, s`
And idle willows in the dusk are .lap

The waters of the stream.
June's 'cup of loveliness my heart is
quaffing—
Ah, merry sounds the surge upon the,
bar,
As in the moonlight lone it tumbles,
laughing
At Even's loyal star.
The heartstrings of the summer night
are throbbing
Likepulsing of sweet lyres,
Then laughter of the creeping Morn

hours of daylight, the wife clasping
her white egg case to her body by her

they run all over the house, for. they
spin no web, but get their diving catch-
ing cockroaches, by sheer fleetness of
foot. They are seldom disturbed or
killed, partly because of their very
considerable running powers.
