Most Crowded Spot on Earth.

The most crowded spot on earth is
the Manderaggio, which is one of the
quarters of Valetta, the capital of the
Island of Malta. In Valetta itself the
proportion is $4,000 to the square
mile, but in the Manderaggio 2544
people dwell on surface two acres
and half in extent, and this gives no
less than 636, 900 to the square mile, or
1O17. 6 to the acre. In the most crowded
town in Great Britain, Liverpool,
the proportion is only 116.4 to the
acre. New York Dispatch.

killed one man in the gloomy ground floor OF

Broadway and Murray street, New York CITY.
Then he held at bay and maintained a dos
perate pistol battle with eight policemen,
who, cropping about in the dark and among
confused heaps of building material, were
endeaVorinS to hunt him out and capture
him or shoot him dead in his tracks.
The cranks name is Thomas Bradley and

Inc man whom he shot is Frank Lewis

FEEDING HOGS

It is claimed that by feeding hogs
with corn mixed with some other mate
rails, the cost will be lessened and
their thrift and health kept up, to-
gether with an increased value IN the
manure. Corn is in itself an excellent
fattening material, but fat is not IN
particular demand at present. More
lean is required, and it is said that this
can be obtained by mixture of ground
wheat and corn.

A MODERN sExTuPLE PRESS.

Columns might be filed with the mere
outline OF improvements in printing
since Bradford's day, and the subject is
one which excites enthusiasm. Soon aft
er Earl Stanhope perfected his screw
press George Cymer, q native Of Maine,
produced the Columbian, which Is still
the basis of the hand press. Then MI.
Hopkinson Of London produced the
Ruthven, and o on after came the Wash
ington and Adams, still in use. All this
time increasing demand was forcing
manual capacity till there was . loud
call for some method of using steam, and
early in this century Herr KONG, q Ger
man exile located in London, astonished
and delighted the profession with q
steam driven machine which turned out
1000 impressions per hour.
All London, all England indeed, broke
into glad acclamations, and 500 after
the perfected roller was added and by
combination the cylinder press. The rest
is known. Next to the invention of
movable types the application of steam
to printing has done most to revolution
ize the world, and to Germany belongs
the honor of both. 1t is not possible to
convey to the reader who is not a printer
any clear idea of the marvellous combina-
ton of cogs, wheels, pinions, rollers,
shafts and bedding which, working as
though imbued with a conscious intelli-
gence, do the work of thousands Of hand
presses. There, for instance, is the
Knickerbocker, printing 10000 SPACE
papers per hour, and thence up to the
q~uadruple, which turns out 5000 per
hour Of the same size.
But latest and greatest is that miracle
of steel and steam, the sextuple stereo-
type ~perfecting printing machine and
folder, which in one hour will print,
fold and deliver in counted lots of 30
each 90, 900 6page, 72,0O0 SPACE, 4S, 1000

the lead could be used much more salts

1t was done, and. 10! printing was in

In 1A54 Schoeffer devised the matrix
system Of producing type. In l462 May
ence was stormed and sacked in the ter
rible wal Of that time, the workmen in
the new business were scattered, and in
so years printing was known in every
city Of western Europe. In 1474 Will
liam Caxton set mp the first press in Eng
land. And yeti is almost incredible
the old wooden press was used for 300
years, till the Earl of Stanhope, late in
the last century. with the aid Of a ma
chinist named Walker, invented the
screw hand press, and about the same
time Mr.. Foster, an English 9rinter, in
vented the common roller, made of glue,

William Bradford, who came to Penn
sylvania with William Penn, returned
soon to England and got q small print
ing press, with which in Philadelphia in
1885 he printed an almanaci The next
year he printed .tBurnyeat's Epistle," a
small 4page quarto. In 1883 he issued
q regular little book of essays called
THE Temple Of Wisdom" Then the
Quaker authorities took him in hand for
publishing without license a copy OF the
coiony's charter. For four years he
made a gallant fght for the freedom Of
printing and in 1898 received q pardon
from the governor and removed to New
York. Governor Fletcher at once APP
pointed him government printer, and
such he remained for 80 years, though
often in trouble and maintaining q des-
perate battle for the right of free print
ing. Oct. 90, 1725, he issued the first
copy of the New York Gazette. the first
paper issued In the city.
This paper he continued to edit till he
was 81 years old. He also established
the first paper mill in America, made
bookbinding and copper plate engraving
permanent industries, and 1t may be
said that he established the freedom Of
the press. Who can calculate the effect
OF such a life in it's bearings ON our pres
snt institutions? He has had many
