A Journalistic Murderer.

The other day composition in this of
fee got hold of a part of page OF Chi
Biography of G.. NJ. ID. Bloss, of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. Ii isn't writing at all
but Bloss seems to kick the ink bottle al
sheet of paper and then send the paper
down to the compositors as editorial
This part of page was used as the foun-
dation of plot TO deliberately destroy d
human life. A line or two was written
above it, Bloss' page marked solid,
and il was handed TO Jour" who had
just struck the office. He claimed to be
" lightning" on the ''set' and on reading
manuscript, and he set up the introduc-
tory line like a whirlwind. When he
came down TO Bloss he grabbed for a
cap "a, I" held it second, and then dove
into the "Y" box Then he threw that
back and picked out dollar mark. No
sentence can commence with dollar
mark, and the typo paused, spat on his
hands, and rested one foot on the cross
bar of his rack. After a moment he
grabbed an fiji" but slowly replaced it,
and toyed with an italic 81" Then he
spit on his hands some more, corrugated
his brow, and hauled the manuscript
under his eyes 1t was no go. He held
the page further off, close to his nose,
slanting to the right, and square before
the window, but he couldn't start it, and
he knew in his soul that no other COM
positor outside of the Enquirer could
do it, AS afternoon faded into twilight
he laid the page aside, set up two or
three lines out OF his head, and then
slipped into his coat, said he'd got to 60
to the depot to see friend, and he was
gone. In his stick he had set up the
words: "Tell my mother that | will
meet her on the other shore" He prob
ably will. He was seen at the foot of
Griswold street, heard to ask if death by
drowning wasn't easier than hanging, and
it is probable that his marble form now
lies at the bottom of the cold, green
river, while Bloss is Detroit
