English names, according to the publishers, make up the largest group, with Dutch names second and Indian third Oddly enough, English place names began to ihvade the state before the end of the Dutch regime in 1664-- such names as Easthampton, South*, ampton, Chester, Rye, Hempstead,: Jamaica. The names of 20 of the state's 62 counties are Indian, either of Iro» quoian or Algonquian origin. Cohoes.v for example, means "a canoe falling," and is derived from an accident in which a loaded canoe went over,the falls. France claimed about two-thirds of New York for a century and a Jalf and the result is a survival of a number of French place rsaty.es,... as Orleans and St. Lawrence counties. The Dutch, on the other hand, held political control for only about_ 55 years, but left many more pl^ce names--the counties of Orange, Nassau, Rensselaer, Cortland, Schuyler, Bronx (although Jonas Bronck, who gave his name to the county, borough, cocktail and cheer, was a Dane).

But j now. the final decree has been hand-! ed down in Mississippi supreme; . court, denying Dane, of, further con- i trol of the apcieht ante-bellum man-1 Sion'.','"' - Dana arid his "G<sat Castle" skyracketed into the news during 1832 ' when the Mersill murder case irives-' tigation got under way. Jane Surget Merrill, an eccentric spinster, was' found murdered1 in 1932 with Dana! and Miss Octavia Dockery, daughter ' of a Confederate brigadier general ( and guardian of Dana, beingi charged with the crinie. I When details of the crime leaked ! out, Dana became known through- i out the nation as.the "Wild Man" and I Miss Dockery a* the -"Goat Worn- ! an." These references resulted from j an investigation in > which it was j found that the c*6uple kept goats on j their place, some even allegedly be- j ing allowed to keep quarters in the house itself. The alleged motive i for the crime was a feud with Miss j Merrill over damage done her ad- j •joining property by the goats. • In oAe of the mcjst sensational invest lgatjions, ever conducted by the sheriff's office here, the two occupants of "Goat Castle" were indicted by a special grand jury called to probe tbe charges. However, a trial jury could'never be secured. 1 The enormous amdunt of publicity given the case a^d the once beautiful ante-bellum mansion brought hundreds of touiists to the "Goat Castle" place daily^ In the last legal move. Justice Julian P. Alexander of the Mississippi suprenle cyurt has ruled that title to the prope rty must now go to the estate of the late Charles Zerkowsky,, who leaned $2,500 to Miss Dockery before ))is death, - The title came about through foreclosure procedure. v: • New Magic Water Cull ,,, Thyroid Without Pain . NEW YORK -- Science has a new, magic drmkr cf water which does an internal surgical operation, com-, plete, bloodless, painless, harmless. The drink is ordinary water containing radio-active iodine. The taste is natural. The operation is done by the iodine rays oq the thyroid glands. A survey showed this iodine in use at the University of California and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where it is produced by "cyclotrons. Radio - active jodine which emits rays like those of radium, is not known in nature--it must be made artificially. When a person drinks water "Containing this k;nd of iodine, scientists can tell exactly where it goes by listening to the ehsticrir.g scur.d made by. the rays in an electrical pickup. It goes almost entirely to the thyroid gland, 5,000 times as much concentrating the^e as in any other tissue. Thus concentrated, these rays do ^xactly the same sort of surgical removal as radium or X-rays. They can dissolve part or all of a thyroid gland.
