locofoco    
n. 摩擦火柴

摩擦火柴

Locofoco \Lo`co*fo"co\, n. [Of uncertain etymol.; perh. for L.
loco foci instead of fire; or, according to Bartlett, it was
called so from a self-lighting cigar, with a match
composition at the end, invented in 1834 by John Marck of New
York, and called by him locofoco cigar, in imitation of the
word locomotive, which by the uneducated was supposed to
mean, self-moving.]
1. A friction match. [U.S.]
[1913 Webster]

2. A nickname formerly given to a member of the Democratic
party. [U.S.]
[1913 Webster]

Note: The name was first applied, in 1834, to a portion of
the Democratic party, because, at a meeting in Tammany
Hall, New York, in which there was great diversity of
sentiment, the chairman left his seat, and the lights
were extinguished, for the purpose of dissolving the
meeting; when those who were opposed to an adjournment
produced locofoco matches, rekindled the lights,
continued the meeting, and accomplished their object.
[1913 Webster]


Lucifer \Lu"ci*fer\, n. [L., bringing light, n., the morning
star, fr. lux, lucis, light ferre to bring.]
[1913 Webster]
1. The planet Venus, when appearing as the morning star; --
applied in Isaiah by a metaphor to a king of Babylon.
[1913 Webster]

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of
the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground
which didst weaken the nations! --Is. xiv. 12.
[1913 Webster]

Tertullian and Gregory the Great understood this
passage of Isaiah in reference to the fall of Satan;
in consequence of which the name Lucifer has since
been applied to Satan. --Kitto.
[1913 Webster]

2. Hence, Satan.
[1913 Webster]

How wretched
Is that poor man that hangs on princes' favors! . .
.
When he falls, he falls like Lucifer,
Never to hope again. --Shak.
[1913 Webster]

3. A match[1] made of a sliver of wood tipped with a
combustible substance, and ignited by friction; -- called
also {lucifer match}, and {locofoco}, now most commonly
referred to as a {friction match}. See {Locofoco}.
[1913 Webster]

4. (Zool.) A genus of free-swimming macruran Crustacea,
having a slender body and long appendages.
[1913 Webster]
