THE ASSAkSIN'S PICTURE.
rhOtOgraphing the Prisoner ir
jail.

A special despatch from Washington
saws: Since Mr.. Scovill's interview with
the assassin in the presence of District
Attorney Corkhill, on Monday, no one
has had access to him. His cell has
been changed repeatedly, and all
the loose furniture of the room and even
his shoes have been taken out. The cell
occupied by him now is on the third
floor of the massive Jail building, and
is about twelve by fifteen in size and
LIGHTED from the top of the outer wall
by small square window, crossed by
stout iron bars which admit scarcely an
inch space between them. The cells on
both sides of that occupied by him
have been vacated, and the passage
leading tc them guarded at both ends
by armed sentrieS. These precautions,
in view of the meek bearing and ctfeini-
nate strength of the prisoner, seem
almost unnecessary. A photographer
went to the Jail yesterday to secure a
picture of the prisoner, hut Guiteau oh
iected to being photographed for the
whimsical reason that he always took
very bad pictures. Eleven negatives
were made, however, each in Il different
osition, and seven of them, the photo
lrlpher thinks, will prove to be good
likenesses. The work was accomplish
e in the rotunda of the prison. While
Bell, the photographer, was arranging
tre camera Guiteau came pattering
along the corridors from his cell in his
bar, feet his shoes being denied him.
He regarded the operation with a
up ,rt i!ious air, and hoped that none of
hi, pictures would ever be reproduced
by other than first class illustrated
papers. The collar and coat which will
appear in the photographs were lent
him by the the prison officials. The
other wearing apparel is his own, inclu-
ding the hat and pantaloons in which
the assassination was committed.
While posing Guitean betrayed consid-
erable anxiety lest the picture should
fail to do him Justice. His small, deep
set eyes, which are colorless and rest
less in expression, and, indeed, the only
feature of his face, are
hardly seen at all in the photographs.
Iiuiteaus fare in prison consists of
biscuit and coffee, supplemented with
neat and vegetables once day, which
IRE served alike to all the prisoners.
His appetite is good and he has as yet
made no complaint. His habitual diet,
evidently, had been very much poorer
,efore he came under the jailor's care.

A Dollar a Word.

The London correspondent OF
the New York World, Mr.. Jen.
nings, comments upon the intro>
duction of the american editorial
paragraph into the London. press,
which it promises in time to drive
the elaborate ''leading article" of
tue past. In this connection it is
interesting to find the London TEL
egraph quoting as the shortest
leading notice ever published, and
the most remunerative to tle
writer, an editorial written for a
New York paper quarter of a
century ago by the late William
North. Mr.. North was asked to
supply the journal in question
with an "editorial'' calculated to
indict the maximum amount of
damage upon the temperance agi-
tation. "About what length 60
You wish the article to be9" inquired
Mr.. North. ''The shorter the
better so it is to the point. Here
is $40; quality, not quantity, is
what | want and what you can
give me-" North sat down and
wrote the following: sWe Had
rather see the whole world ge,
drunk of it's own free will than one
man kept sober by eempuision.'
This duly appeared next day a.
