Chauncey NJ. Depew was telling q
s.ory about police superintendent in
Une of cur inland cities. The man was a
sharp, shrewd fellow, who worked his
way up from the ranks, with little or
no education. A boy was arrested at the
station by one of his officers, and in due
time brought before the superintendent.
The officer said that the boy had run
away from his home in the east and was
going west to fight Indians. The SUPER
intendent asked if any weapons had been
found ON the youthful desperate. The
officer replied that the only thing found
ON him was book. The superintendent
continued: "These dime novels are do
ing more to injure boys characters and
to drive them from home than anything
else. Let me see it,
The officer handed him the book. he
took it and opened it. Then he said
''This is the Bible-eh? I have heard q
lot about this book, but I have never
read it. Wait until I see what it says. Z"
He began to read slowly and laborious.
ly. After 20 minutes silence he took
his feet down from the desk, placed his
glasses back in the case, and said kindly
to the boy, "Well, my little man, am
surprised that with a book of this kind
in your possession you should have de.
cided to run away from home" Turn
ing to the officer he said in O matter OF
fact way, "There are some really good
things in it. New York Tribune.

Walpole an Inspired Reporter.

OF course man may choose, if he
will, to be less than free author. He
may become a reporter, for there is such
q thing as reporting for books as well
as reporting for newspapers, and there
have been reporters SO amazingly clever
that their very ap,ness and wit consti-
tute them a sort of immortalst You
have proof of this in Horace Walpole,
at whose hands gossip and compliment
receive sort of apotheosis. Such men
hold the secret Of kind of alchemy by
which things trivial and temporary may
be transmitted into literature. But they
are only inspired reporters after all,
and while man was wishing, he might
wish to be more and climb to better
company.-Professor Woodrow Wilson
in Century.
