Printing Woodcuts.

Encouraged by the success of the web
press in magazine presswork, the printers
of The Century have applied the rotary
trations, but recently put to work. Sixty,
four plates of The Century, truly bent to
the proper curve, are firmly fastened on
one cylinder 20 inches long and about &c
inches in diameter: sixteen linking rollers
supplied with ink from two ink fountains,
successfully ink these siXty-four plates
with a delicacy and yet with fullness OF
color never before obtained
The shafts of the impression cylinder
and the plate cylinders, AZ inches in
diameter do no spring or give under the
strongest impression Although rigid in
every part, in the hands of an expert press
man it can be made responsive to the
slightest overlay. This machine is fed by
four feeders from single sheets in the usual
manner and does the work of four stop
cylinders in superior style.
The gain in performance is not rs great
as the gain in quality of presswork, but
quality was considered more than speed
The performance OF the machine could
have been more than doubled by adding to
it other cylinders which would print on
both sides of the paper, but careful exper
iment has proved that the finest woodcuts
cannot he properly printed with this rapid
ity. To get the best results the ink on one
side of the paper must be dry before it is
printed on the other side-Theodore L. De
Winnie in Century.

Awell known artist tells story of "fore-

was detective The detective told them
from time TO time stories about interesting
experiences which he had had, and ex-
planned the methods of carrying on "bunco
games" There are few new "bunco
lodges" Nearly all of them are variations
of one or two stock schemes.

Boscobel Dial. One of the coolest"
laws that has come to our notice for
some time is the following regarding
pensions. We do not know the man
who framed it but will bet that you
could run cst's tail clear through his
head without bending the tail. The law
torbids any pensioner from bargaining,
selling or promising his quarterly pen
sion before it becomes due and has been
paid, and on the other hand all persons
are forbidden BY the law 10 accept the
same ia any manner rs su.ity for
credit on otherwise. The fine is fixed
for one hundred dollars for any viola
