THE Proportional Thug" is the title
to az editorial in late issue of The New
York Star in which the writer takes oc-
casion to severely criticise the modern
style of interviewing. The newspaper
reporter has certainly degenerated and
what was once an instinct for collecting
legitimate news has grown to be passion
to pander to a curiosity hardly more
elevated in the moral scale than the
passion which seeks qualification in
violating the laws of chastity. The
people are to blame to great extent for
this state of affairs. There is always
lurking desire to learn family secrets and
a person who would despise himself if
he employed the dirty cunning and
effrontery necessary to learn the facts,
applauds the enterprise of the reporter
and cheerfully accepts the news, even
claims it as his due, az constant
reader" The local paper affected By
the prevailing atmosphere sinks to the
level of a gossip and is valued most
highly when it most nearly approximates
the character of sewing circle quidnu'ac.
The newspaper reporter feeds a species
OF curiosity whose repression is demand
ed in the development of good character.
AS the sensational grows in popularity
the reporter does not hesitate to trans
cend the limits of truth and decency.
de puts IN the living words of the press
for general persual, thoughts which men
utter shamefacedly until habit makes
them hard. And nothing is sacred from
his pen. The arrangement of the death
room and the unstudied sorrow of friends
are dramatized for the public. Reputa-
ton counts for nothing when it stands IN
the way of this procurer, this panderer
to perverted tastes. Truth is disregard
ed with facility equalled only by the
promptness with which character is
blackened or propriety outraged.
Men of national reputation are bounded
by these persistent Paul Prys and word
incautiously dropped bears an alarming
progeny. Public men are no longer
masters of their own thoughts and if they
evince any disposition to refuse to deliver
at the point OF the pencil they must as
sumo the paternity of opinions of that
holder, no more scrupulous and not less
mendacious species of reporter known as
the interviewer. Newspaper enterprise
has run into a channel which lowers the
tone of the press, makes it unreliable,
immoral. "a scandal monger TO be disposed,
an unprincipled fabricator to be dreaded.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

The last New York daily journal to is-
sue Sunday edftion was the Graphic, and
the event afforded a. veteran Journalist q
chance TO Indulge in some "reminiscences
can very well remember, he says. when
Sunday edition OF New York daily
newspaper was as great a novelty as the
: daily illustrated Graphic was whenRfirst
started. There have been Sunday papers
since away back in 1925, but they were is
sued only on that day OF the week
think the Herald about 1868 was the first
to regularly issue on Sunday. The Tri
bune attempted about the same time or
at least some time during the rebellion,
TO issue Sunday edition, its editor believ-
ing that the great interest In the war news
would make the Sunday paper welcome.
But the moral sense of the community was
shocked and Mr.. Greeley abandoned the
field Only one other, and that a special
Sunday issue, was published during Mr..
Greeley's lifetime, and that was ordered by
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid without consulting
either Greeley or Semuef Sinclair, the
publisher. 1t was dated Sunday, Septem-
her 4, 1870, and gave details Of the fall OF
Sedan and the capture Of Napoleon HI
ana McMahon s army. an event which
the Tribune two days before had predicted
the inevitable end Of the movement
then making. / remember that Mr.
@ Greeley wrote Mr.. Reid, who was then
managing editor, that this special issue
was the best newspaper he had ever seen.
But" he added, you ought to have got
in that little editorial of mine on salt"
But it was not until some years later,
when he had become e1itor-in chief that
Mr.. Reid ventured to issue the Tribune
regularly on Sunday. The conscientious
opposition to Sunday papers has entirely
disappeared.

A Royal Author.

Prince William, the eldest son OF the
Crown Prince Of Germany, has written a
book on The Wars of Cesar in the Light
of Modern Strategy" The work is based
upon a series OF papers which the Prince
recently read before the members OF the
Officers Scientific Society at PotsdRm /:
and it has been prepared for publication
mainly in difference to the wishes Of
Count Won Moltke, who was present at
the reading of the papers and was much
struck at the correctness and originality
OF the Princes observations. Among
Queen NictOrias near relatives who are
authors may now be reckoned the Iup--
nal Crown Princess of Germany. the Duke
of Edinburgh who has written poems.
the Princes Albert Victor and GEORGE Of
Wales, Prince William of Prussia. the
Princess Christian Of Schleswig Holstein.

Pasteur had little difficulty. says Prof.

in establishing the parasitic origin OF
fowl cholera: indeed. the parasite had been
observed by others before him But by
his successive CIVILIZATIONS he rendered
the solution sure. His next step win re-

well to throw out a few remarks in ad-
vance. When tree or a bundle OF wheat

amount Of mineral matter remains in the

an eminent London physician. To ex-
