PRINTERS ODD TOOLS.
Some Appliances Which Our Great
Grandfather Used.

some Appliances which Our Great
Grandfathers Used.
Once i'll awhile one hears q reference to
the sheepskin linking balls with which orr
great grandfathers in the printing trade
used to ink their forms This is about the
only old tool of the trade now iii disuse
with which the printers of today are ia
miliar. There are others which were more
or less used at various times that have
dropped out and been forgotten. A couple
of these have come to light through an old
catalogue that has fallen into the writer s
hands. One was a short wooden galley
open at one side and having clamps below,
by means of which it might be attached to
the boxes of the upper case. Thus sup
ported it was three or four inches above
the surface of the boxes, leaving room for
the compositor to reach the type without
disturbing the galley This form of galley
was probably brought into use about the
time that printers discovered it to be a
nuisance to carry the galley on the cap
case. The old plan was to lay the caps and
small caps in the four upper rows Of the
cap case and then to rest the galley across
the three lower rows into which there was
seldom necessity for the compositor's hand
to travel. While the propped up galley was
undoubtedly better than the galley laid
across the cap case, the plan Of placing the
galley on Il disused case or on bank rem
dered it useless
A universal stereotype block was at one
time in use, being made with grooves that
ran slantendicularly, or an angle of about
10 degrees to tho base and side Of the
block. The block was clamped in the
grooves and was readily brought to any
position. Such block answered very we'll
OH hand presses, but when steam cylinder
presses came into use it proved too unre-
liable, allowing the pages to slip, and so it
was discarded
The sheepsfoot is tool unknown in
many modern pressrooms, and in another
generation we may expect that the shoot
ing stick will also have disappeared 9th
or tools, though altered and improved in
various ways, seem mostly to hold their
own in spite of the many additions being
made to tie printer and Bookmaker.

SAMOAN IMBROGLIO
The Present Situation is Quiet with
Mataafa at Head Of Provisional
Government.
AWAITING POWERS DECISION
Mataafas Government Has the Support
Of 80 Per Gent Of the Native Popula-
ton and Majority Of the
Foreign.

San Francisco, March s.-The steamer
Alameda has arrived from Australia via
Samoa and Honolulu. When the Ala
media left Apia everything was quiet
under the direction of the provisional
government with Mataafa at the head.
The sentiment among the natives seems
to be changing in favor OF Lanus, and
Mataafa is becoming uneasy. Every
body is anXiously awaiting the decision
Of the three powers as to who is to be
king.
MATAAFAs GOVERNMENT RECOGNIZED.
San Francisco. March s. Dr. John
Raffel late president of the municipal
council of Apia, arrived here today on
the steamer Alameda. To ar Associated
Press representative, DR.. Raffel said that
when he left Samoa the Mataafa gov
ernment was recognized as the provi-
sional government by three leading
powers, which had the support of 90 per
cent. of the native population and ma
iorty of the foreign population. "My
opinion, he said, sis, that if the treaty
powers attempt to force the installation
of the Malietoa government, it will
simply result in the Mataafa govern
ment going into power, and controlling
everything outside of Apia. Allowing
for defections to Malietoa's government,
in case it is recognized, the Mataafa
government will still have vast ma
jority of the partsans."

Stock Notes.

Cattle are reported as doing well in
Guadalupe, Lincoln and Chaves coun-
ties, and the winter losses will prove
comparatively slight. However, the
sheep men have had some losses, in
lambs and old ewes, for the most part,
and are burning over their grounds pre-
paratory to spring lambing. A number
of owners will lamb on alfalfa. Alfalfa
is plenty east of the Pecos river, and is
regarded as superior to salt grass as
milk feed. Sage grass is claimed to be
the next thing to alfalfa.
The Crawford Brothers, stockmen, of
Eddy, are feeding all of their poor and
weak sheep on pulp, as it pays to feed
such stock while the range is dry.
Another lot of $50 hogs was smoked
the other day at Gerhart's Eddy estab-
lishment, preparatory to curing.
