have just had an interview with one OF
the great men of the world. refer TO Mr..
William T. Stead. late editor of the Pail
Mall Gazette and now of the Review of
Reviews. The Review OF Reviews was
founded by Mr.. Stead only short time
ago. but it has jumped to the front as one
of the great magazines of the world. and
editions of il are published in England. in
the United States and in Australia. Mir.
Stead calls it the Business Mans Maya
zine, and he tells me that its aim is to pre-
sent a true picture OF the thought and
progress of the world month by month
and to be The leader In all movements for
the Improvement Of the human race. This
is Mr.. Stead's idea, and he is peculiarly
fitted for putting such thought into action.
He is a sort of a journalistic Cromwell.
He has the nerve of a giant. the pen Of a
Junius and the intellectual vgor of
Thomas Carlyle. He believes 10 accom-
plisbing ends, and he cares but little for
means if they he honest ones. He made
all the world shudder a few years ago in
his Maiden Tribute 10 Modern Babylon"
when he laid bare the life of aristocratic
London and showed how little girls were
bought and sold for Toue nobility. As ed

A New Paper.

Staunton is to have a new paper to be called
Tost's ITeeily. This is certain. Major Yost lp-
turned last week from Washington and wrote
the ahlesG writer's in this country. For years
he was editor of the VIRGINIAN, which was re-
moved from Staunton to Clifton Forge. He will
have associated with him Mr.. L. A. Fraser, an
experienced newspaper man, now editor of ths
Shendan Neaps. The new paper, which Will SUI
port Harrison and Reed, Will appear about
August l. 1t will be issued weekly at $150 i
year. Success to it.
The foregoing, from the Staunton Aa+
aus of the 9Th instant, will be no sur
prise to the people of Shendun, to whom
it has been no secret for some time pass
that change in the editorial manage
ment of the Sheaadeln Neaps would prob.
ably be made, and the statement Of the
Argass merely confirms what has been
generally understood.
The new journal starts with very fiat
tering prospects, and its editors will not
only have the advantage of wide ac-
quaintance among both business men
and politicians in and out of the State,
but also the additional advantage Of
having been for six years associated as
employer and employee of the VALLEY
VIRGINIAN, prior to the establishment
of the Shealdua Neaos-six years of con-
slant association without disagreement
or misunderstanding.
Both left Staunton-Major Yost to 60
to Clifton Forge, and the writer to Shen
dun, and after something less than two
years experience both have concluded
to return to the Queen City, permanent
ly. Yost's Weekly will be an entirely
new plant-type, presses and all appur
tenances direct from the manufactures
and the paper will be creditabIe alike tt
