was not one of the committee Of arrangement
but q reporter for New York newspaper.
Some of the most interesting anecdotes Of
reporters experiences concern the ability to
know news when they see it. Many columns
of most entertaining "reminiscences and ira
ditions could be written upon this feature,
but one will suffice.
Some years ago young fellow, green as
the hills where his childhood was passed, was
employed by one of the New York papers at
trifling salary and to do a line of work in
trusted usually to the poorest or newest re-
porter This chap was dressed in an over
coat, which, when new, had served some
other person, and in clothes which had seen
great wear. The shoes that were on his feet
were so i'll matched that one buttoned while
the other laced.
In following his duties he called one even
ing at the Madison street police station, a
place where news is so seldom found that it
is rarely visited by reporters He was smok-
ing pipe with the sergeant in charge when
little bell rang. The sergeant went to take
the message.
What did the bell ring for, sergeanta" he
asked.
"Oh, a little fire in Ludlow street."
"'Tisn't worth while; it's all out and only
SIS damage"
well, I'll go any way.'
He went, and the first thing he saw was the
head of fireman projecting from dense
mass of smoke The fireman stood on lad
der, and he was receiving from fireman in
side little bundle The bundle was passed
down to a fireman on lower rung, and so on
l. l. Al.
lamp the dead face of child was seen.
That's news" thought the reporter, and
he set to work. When he had finished he had
learned the story of the suffocation of ten
children and OF most heroic and sensational
rescue of many others by tf fremen. 1t
was most exciting history, and gave abun-
dant opportunity for the true reporter to
make II story that would thrill all New
York.
He went back to his Office and reported
what he had in hand. Sunday night is the
quiet night of the week in newspaper -ffices,
but when this green fellow had told his story
there was excitement enough. No report Of
the calamity had come in by the usual news
channels and other reporters were sent out
to get the story, for the new hand had never
shown what he could do.
He was told to write, and finished a two
column account in about three hours. When
it was read il was found that the story was
complete. The reporter who had been sent
out came back late at night, but could add
nothing to the story.
This account was the only one published in
New York 1t was that desideratum of the
reporter and editor, a great beat, and yet on
how narrow a chance was it obtained 1t
max a fitting end to this anecdote to say
that the reporter never needed to wear old
shoes or an Anticipated overcoat after that.
