WHAT 1T MEANS
Some Startling Figures Concerning the
Publishing Business-

Publishing Business
The cloud of paper flying daily from
the humming presses is amazing to
contemplate. Many of the Sunday
editions of from twelve to forty page
would carpet the cities where they are
printed. A short time ago on a gala
occasion the Atlanta constitution turn
ed out a fifty-six page edition. The
San Francisco Examiner, at the chris
tening of its two monster Hoe perfect
ing presses, Monarch" and Jumbo"
threw put upon a startled community
forty pages of portraits and illuStra-
tons, and the St Paul Pioneer Press
came out with a sixty page edition de-
sGribing the largest newspaper build
ing in the world.
For the 600, 900 edition of its pre-
MUM number The Youths Compan-
ion, a Boston publication, used 125
tons of paper, and to illustrate this
startling fact printed a picture of the
Eiffel tower-1, 900 feet high, and by
its side the stack of paper piled ream
on ream 3,4O0 feet-three times and
over the height of the famous column.
For the white paper of Harper's
Magazine and The Century it costs at
least 5000, 900 in a year. Many of the
presses of the metropolitan dailies eat
up 81, 900 worth of blank paper in a
day. Add TO the morning and even
ing output of these whirling monsters
the IONS upon tons of weeklies, month
lies and trade publications, and at
from 4 to 10 cents per pound, n gets

printed sheet alone.
Type setting runs into the millions;
think of the field of flying fingers all
skilled and generously paidl Then
the toll Of the telegraph; the thou
sands of dollars for messages by cable
under the sea; the millions clicked
through the nervous keys on land.
Nothing in the way of expense, as
every reader knows, stands between
the newspaper and its news.

Tn. Origin of tn. pI.mond.

The origin of the diamond has been
a fruitful topic for speculation among
scientists; hence many contradictory
theories have been advanced and ar
gued with some show of reason; but,
after all hat has been said and writ
ten upon the subject, we are still left
pretty much in the dark. Some of the
theories are very ingenious and inter
esting, though the amount of truth
they embody remains to be proved.
1t has been suggested that the vapors
of carbon during the coal period may
have been condensed and crystallized
into the diamond, and again, the ita-
columite, generally regarded as the
matrix, was saturated with petroleum,
which, collecting in nodules, formed
the gem by gradual capitalization.
Newton believed it TO have been a
coagulated unctuous substance of
vegetable origin, and vas sustained in
the theory by many eminent philoso-
pliers, including Sir d. Brewster, who
believed the diamond was once a mass
Of gum, derived from certain species of
wood, and that it subsequently, as
sumed a crystalline form. Dana and
others advanced the opinion that it
may have been produced by the slow
VI NCbObaOiC AaAt
and even from animal matter. Burton
says it is younger than gold, and sug-
gests the possibility that it may still be
in process of formation, with capacity
of growth. Specimens of the diamond
have been found 20 inclose particles of
gold, an evidence, he thinks, that its
formation was more recent than that
of the precious metal.
The theory that the diamond was
formed Immediately from carbon by
the action of heat is opposed by an
other maintaining that it could not
have been produced in this way, other
wise would have been consumed. But
the advocates of this view were not
quite on their guard against a surprise,
for some quick witted opponent has
found by experiments that the dia-
mond will sustain great heat without

OUR LITTLE SON.

-Four years old, afflicted with a painful
skin disease. Six doctors tried to cure
him; all failed. Got worse and worse.
Completely cured by one set Of Cuticura
Remedies, costing $1.75.
Our little son will be years of age on the
25th inst. In May. 1885,, he was attacked with q
very painful breaking out of the skin. We called
in physician, who treated him for about four
weeks. The child received little or no good from
the treatment, as the breaking out, supposed by
the physician to be hives III an aggregated form,
became larger in blotches and more and more
distressing. We were frequently obliged to get
up In the night and rub him with soda in water,
strong liniments, etc. Finally We called other
physicians until no less than six had attempted
to cure him, all alike falling, and the child
steadily getting worse and worse until about the
Goth Of last July, when we began to give
him Cuticura Resolvent internally and the Cuti
cura and Cuticura soap externally, and by the
last OF August he was SO nearly well that we gave
him only one dose of the Resolvent about every
second day for about ten days longer, and he has
never been troubled since with the horrible
malady. In all we used less than one-half of a
bottle of Cuticura Resolvent a little less than
one box of Cuticura and only one cake OF Cuti
cura Soap.

RECEIVER ASKED FOR.

Assignee Blanding and assistants
have been busy for several days on
a statement' of the affairs of the
Bank of Wahpeton.. and were just
about ready !. to, file Il statement,
Wednesday, when an injunction
was served, asking why a receiver
might not disappointed. 1t is found
that the assets are $31 ,OS7. 7.O5 and
the liabilities Ss3O,4G7.17, which
would indicate apostolic a payment
of so or IS per cent, provided the
matter could be settled by tile as
signee; whereas, if the thing is now
interfered with as indicated it will
undoubtedly prove much more ex-
pensive. If there was fraud and
dishonesty practiced it was done in
the last day and hours of the bank S
life, and we do not see how re-
ceiver can get more out of what,is
left than an assignee. 10 say that
Blanding would go into collusion
with VanDerveer or any one else to
defraud the creditors of the bank is
a thing which no considerable num-
Der of people here can be made to
believe. We presume that if any
ole cares to 60 in and examine the
books for deceptive practices,
leading up to the failure, there
would be no objection so far
as that is concerned. We venture
to say that the bank books are TO-
day wide open to the world! TIE
TINES has never approved of all
of "Van's" ways, had but little
faith in the stability of the bank for

never had any use for many of his

at all, but now to turn what little
there may be left of the creditors
property into a smelling fund
at this late day, is, we think,
not only questionable economy but
an unnecessary thing. Let a COM

A SAD AFFAIR.

Friday morning of last week We
were astonished to learn that Chas,
E. Hinman had. been arrested
charged with adultery with Miss
Sarah Murphy, and that in
fact the girl had just died al
Great Falls, Montana, from the
effects of attempted abortion. In
less time than it takes to write 1t,
one heard more ugly rumors charged
up against Hinman than would be
required to send half dozen men
to the penitentiary. The remains
OF Miss Murphy reached Wahpeton
Sunday evening and the funeral
was conducted Monday morning
from the M. E. church. 1t seems
that some two months since, the
deceased left here for Montana,
ostensibly to visit with a hall
brother, and to see what effect the
change would have upon her rheu.
matte system, but in reality tc
screen shame from her friends
here, and in this connection comes
a long list of misdemeanors charged
against Hinman. First, that he
persuaded the girl into a mock mar.
riage, June 9Th, 1888, and that diff
liculties followed-he accompanying
her to Montana, etc. But the truth
is IIinman was not at Montana, but
went to his Fond du Lac home last
January and remained there till his
departure for Wahpeton, and he was
arrested almost as soon as his ar.
rival here, the girls death occurring
about the same time.
Among the deceased's effects wa,
found what purported to be a mar.
riage certificate, signed by J. w.
Gregg, Nick Marsh and Mollie
Corbel, but from all accounts this
seems to be a forgery, Capt. Gregg
saying he knows nothing of it, as
does Mr.. Mrrsh. And Hinman de.
clares that he knows nothing of it
1t is a fact, however, that Sheriff
Miller has letters from Hinman tc
the girl, written from Fond du Lac
which are compromising on the
abortion question, advising the girl
to get out Of Wahpeton and escape
disgrace, etc.
Last year Geo. Humans wife
and Miss Murphy kept a dressmak-
ing shop up stairs in the Bessie
building, and when they broke up
several months since, Chas. E. Hin.
man bought their furniture, prom
ising to pay them for the same, and
latter says that when the girl dis
covered her condition, she wrote to
him at Fond du Lac for money, ex.
planning matters, and that he sent
her what little money he could, not,
however. paying in full. And that
after his arrival here recently he
sent SIS more, still leaving small
balance on the goods,-is his explain
alton Of having sent the girl money.
1t is an exceedingly sad affair
and one requiring court examina-
