Prominent Papers and Their History

During the years from 1850 to 1861
the DEsERET News was the only
publication that survived for any
length of time. Among the few
others that we're begun during that
period was the Mountaineer, which
was edited by J2@es Ferguson, but
it lived only year or two. Judging
from sample copies it was a sheet OF

- computation was made
of the number that had been started
in Salt Lake City, and the estimate
Of over three hundred was arrived
at. This was an average OF more
than six each year since the first
settlement OF the State, or one for
every sixty days. A gentleman
now engaged in journalism in Ogden
recently made statement to the
writer that there had been estab-
lished in that city since its first set
tlement, no less than forty different
publications. OF this number less
than half dozen have survived, and
some of those that still exist have
very frail appearance.
The town of Beaver has shown
considerable journalistic energy.
As early as the spring Of 1873, the
Enterprise began publication there
as daily. 1t was published as such
for about three months only when
it became tri-weekly. After a

A GalIOninQ Cycle.

A gallopine cycle has been construct
ed and patented by an Englishmau.
Pedals. crank and crank hanger are
dispensed with in this machine, which
the rider operates by simply raising
and lowering himself in his seat with
motion similar to that of rider on q
cantering horse. The spindle of the
back wheel carries small sprocket
wheel, which is connected by q chain
to the large sprocket wheel, mounted
upon spindle journaled in the upper
rear stays. From the back of the
saddle vertical rack is suspended and
engages with q toothed disk on the
large sprocket wheel. The front end
of the saddle is pivoted to curved sup
porting arm. The rack is kept in en-
gagement with the sprocket wheel by
means of q spring mechanism. When
coasting down hill. the rider may sit
farther back upon his saddle and there
by force the rack below to engage with
the large sprocket wheel. allowing the
wheel to glide along freely by the aid
oi gravity alone.

Stamp-COllecting.

The collecting of postage stamps,
and the preservation of the same as GU
riosities, began Immediately after the
| issue of the Mulready envelopes, and
the 1910 one-penny black and two
pence blue adhesives. The first pub
lishe d notice of such collecting is said
to have appeared in Punch in 1841.
The first government to follow the
example of Great Britain was that of
Brazil, which issued the lsrge-fgure
stamps in 1913. Other couptrie slow
ly followed, until the growth of COM
merce, made possible by railroads and
ocean steamers, and the consequent in
creased domestic and foreign cores
pOEdence, caused most of the other
governments to introduce the same
system of prepayment by stamps early
in the 800. AS the mum Der of differ
ent STAN ps incress ed, more and more
persons became interested in obtaining
copies of the different varieties; but
probably the most efficient agent in
slim ula ting curiosity and eventually
collecting. was the appearance of the

Vision Tests In Schools,

In Philadelphia it has been found
that of about 1900 pupils of the two
highest grammar grades whose eyes
have been tested nearly half of those
examined have defective vision. In sew
eral cases children who were instructed
to wear glasses have shown the benefit
of using these in improved proficiency
in their studies. In some instances pu-
pills were retarded. unconsciously to
themselves, by not being able to distin-
guish anything written upon the black
board. One boy, whose hesitancy in
reading could not be accounted for, was
found to be afflicted with a difficulty

these with one another could increaee
their collections materially. The usual
basis for such trading was stamp for
stamp, and thus many rare stamps
went into the hands of children who
had no idea as to their future value.
Unfortunately in those early days of
philately the custom was to paste down
the stamp on pages of old black books,

Special Gable Despatch 10 THE srS.
PARIS, Sept. 26.-M. Leroy Beaulicu. 4 recog.
nized authority, contributes to the journal des
Debdts a weighty article based on the statement
that France recently instructed Baron dc Cour.
eel, the French Ambassador to Great Britain, to
intimate to the British Government Frances
readiness to resume the free coinage OF silver at
the ratio OF l5le to l..
NJ. Beaulieu declares that free coinage would
mean bankruptcy, that French exchange abroad
would fall to a ruinous extent, that the com.
mercial relations Of the country would be
thrown into the widest confusion. and that
Frances securities, including rentes. would fall
proportionally to the difference between the
fictitious and real value Of silver.
1t would be neither justification nor excuse
that the United States might keep France in
countenance. France not producing silver. Has
not, he asks, America temptation to make sac
rifces in order TO augment the va ne OF silverl
Moreover. the United States have no great
army to maintain. They are recklessly daring
because their resources are SO great. In con-
clusion NJ. Beaulieu says that there Is no par
allel between the western continent and a linn
tied country like France.
