TO seek out items for himself
Certain facts in clipping history bear
out the idea. Emperor William, for
example, is much too busy to read the
papers, yet needs strenuously to know
what his world is saying of particular
things. So he has a scrap book, in
charge of a court officer, whose bust
ness it is to see that every morning it
is brought strictly up to date, and duly
submitted to the imperial eye. W. T.
Stead, another very busy man, is cred
tied with possessing a whole library of
books made up of clippings. 1t fills
three dingy rooms in London house,
and is said to have suggested to him
the plan of the Review of Reviews.
Other bureaus concern themselves
mainly with business affairs. They
give to their subscribers not only all
that appears in print concerning the
subscribers lines of business, but adj
vance intelligence of such things as the
letting of contracts, the adoption of
building plans, new materials, inven-
tons, discoveries, legal decisions af-
fecting commercial interests, also legis-
lation. While the Dingley bill was
pending every firm interested in the
wool trade received from a Chicago

Eighteen years ago a man had al
idea. which he developed with so cents
the last money in his pocket Less
than month ago half dozen firms
engaged in the business resulting from
that idea, coalesced, and capitalized
their joint undertaking at $1,000, OO0
Even at that they had no stock for
Sale-the capitalization was merely an
equitable prorating. Unless all signs
ran there VIII be handsome dividends.
The business is International, and so
solidly established only a social cata-
clysm can overset il.
The story has been told more than
once of how a young Russian-Ameri-
can at the end of his resources, saw
a famous French artist pay handsome

was inspired by the sight with the
thought of making a business of fur
niShing such notices to whoever had
need of them. But the spread and de-
velopment of the thing thus insignifi-
oantly begun will be news to the most
part of the reading world.
Today $4,000 persons and $50, 900. 900
are employed in the business of MAX
ing and distributing newspaper clip
pings. There are between fifty and 100
bureaus in the United States nearly as
many in England and on the continent,
others at Melbourne, Sydney, Calcut-
ia, Yokohama, Hongkong, Johannes
burg, Natal, Buenos Ayres and Rio de
Janeiro. All the biggest of these are in
effect international. If they have not
branches all about, they have instead
a sort of traffic arrangement, after the
manner of the big banks, by which
their foreign correspondents fill cabled
orders quite as though they were re-
ceived over their own counters.
Even this does not mark the full
spread of the idea. Railways, tele-
graph lines and express companies
have gone into the business on their
own account. At first they were
among the regular bureaus most pay
ing subscribers, but presently they be-
gan ordering local agents to clip and
file every line of railway matter ap-
pearing in local sheets, and to send the
clippings to the main office, where they
are indexed and put away. Several

CROP PROSPECTS GOOD.

CROP PROSPECTS GOOD.
In about one third to one half of the
state work in the hayfields was retarded
and good deal of hay has been injured
by frequent rains and lack of sunshine.
In the drier districts fair progress has
been made in haying and harvesting
rye, early sown oats and barley. With
favorable conditions harvesting spring
grain crops will be general in the larger
part Of the state within the coming ten
days.
Corn has made very good progress in
all sections, and the bulk of the crop
has been laid by in fair condition; but
work of cultivation is in progress in
late planted fields and bottom lands
Prospects for the crop as whole are
steadily improving. Oats and other
small grain crops are standing up fairly
well, under somewhat adverse condi-
lions, and with a favorable harvest sea-
son the output will be good.
Potatoes, pastures and garden truck
are doing notably well.-Iowa Crop

the truest cause Of Oxford's greatness.
Dull indeed must the student be who

versation in students room, at which
he happens to be present. He will not
fail to notice the correctness of express
sion, and usually the vigor and fresh
ness Of thought, which are the salient
characteristics of the conversation Of
the best Oxford men. OF course there
are exceptions. There are frequent
examples Of the literary dude in Ok
ford as we'll as anywhere else Of the
man who sacrifices all pretense to sim
cerity and soundness to momentary
and half cheap, epigrammatic brill

1t will be consolation to Mr.. Cas-

faces the judgment seat we can i'm
agine the sweet blush of pleasure on
his cheek as he asks the recording

400 copies of his paper with intent to
iniure some one whose business

The firm the Bulletin attacks are of

their faith. In Paris the Bulletin
would be one of the papers demanding

the members are republicans, and
second they find they can do business

A high standard has been set for the
volunteers now being recruited for the
Philippines. If every American who
wanted to enlist were acceptable to the
Government, the regiments which it is
proposed to send to the islands would
be raised in two weeks. But the quail
fications demanded are 80 high that on
the first day of the enlistment, two
thirds Of the applicants were rejected.
It is only the prudence which suggests
the selection Of men of strong constitu-
lions and good physiques, as the service
is not child's play. Many of the men
already recruited have had military
training, some for nearly year. 1t is
highly gratifying, too, to learn that in
granting commissions the President
has an eye to fitness only.
