The Mysterious Way In Which 1t
Spreads Through an Audience.


You cannot keep news, especially

be it theater, concert room or lecture
hall. no matter how deeply engrossing
the entertainment may be, and from
one man, who perhaps knows only one
soul in the place. coming in with the
news of a StateSman's death. of a great
victory, or what not, the whole audi
ence of a couple of thousand people
will know the news in five minutes"
The gentleman who thus spoke is one

cOnvulsed with laughter at Q o'clock,

great outside calamity that circulated
through the house with almost the ra-
pidity of telegraphy, that same audi
ence has been restless, universally
grave of face and absolutely inatten-
tive to the very eliminating point of
fun on the stage. And the singular
thing is that actors who have never
left the stage have, through the me-
dium of whispers among the band or
from the stalls, known all that the
original messenger of evil had to tell.
"The late Rev. C. II. SpurgeOn once
told me that he had known this same
thing precisely to occur during the
course of a religious service, and when
a vast congregation were on their

Thinks They Need Editing.

The blue pencil apparently did not
exist in olden times. We have read
ten pages of Marcus Aurelius at a
stretch without understanding a word
Of it. Epictetus is equally hard to
read. Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus
are philosophers without doubt, but
they have style that gives you a
headache Both need editing. The
man with the blue pencil should get
after Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus.
Emerson's books also clamOr for the
blue pencil. Carlyle is another clumsy
writer greatly in need of the blue pen

BALTIMORE, MD.
THE PAPER OF THE PEOPLE,
FOR THE PEOPLE and
WITH THE PEOPLE
HONEST IN MOTIVE
FEARLESS IN EXPRESSION
SOUND IN PRINCIPLE

A newspaper is an educator; there
are all kinds of educators, but the man
who spends money judiciOusly and
literally is better able to impart his
knowledge than the man who has lit
tie or nothing to spend.
The Sun is the highest type of a
newspaper.
The Suns reports from all parts of
the United States are unsurpassed.
The Suns Cable Service is the finest
known; the troubles in the Philippines
and in South Africa demand compe-
tent correspondents and vast expend-
iture of money and labor in getting
the news. Whe you get The Sun you
get news and intelligent presentation
of facts with it, as well as carefully
prepared articles of editorial writer's of
highest standing. When you read a
daily paper, whose principal recon-
mendation is its cheapnsss, you get
the dregs- generally very poor dregs

THE THINNEST OF MEN.
Claude Seurat Might Have Been Mis-

Instances of remarkably thin men

Ashley Cooper, the famous physician,

into the building in which Seurat re-

him, and in writing of him he said:
