PRINTERS ERRORS.
The Fiendish Behavior of WeII-Meaninq
Types.

Types.
A we'll known business man of
Morrisville came into the News AND
CITIZEN Office yesterday afternoon
with a change of ad. For a little
while he stood at the elbow of one of
the cOmpositors and finally remark
ed: "Well, you pick up those letters
rapidly enough and its wonderful
that you don't mix 'em all up-but,
the NEWS AND CITIZEN makes very few
mistakes.
"Thank you" replied the compost
tor almost falling off his high stool.
The compliment gave him sort of a
shock, for it is very seldom that any
one ever says nice things to 'the in
telligent compositor" whose shout
ders have to bear the burden for
every misspelled word in a newspaper.
The writer is thus led "to tell tales
out of school," The compositor.
casually and unconsciously, is a per-
son of infinite humor. The pen push
ers upon whose telling arguments or
flights of fancy the compositor ex
ercises his wit may be annoyed, but
the general public has no alloy in the
enjoyment of these typographical
antics.
Many of the humors of thecompos-
ing room arise from mistakes in
punctuation. For an example, the
following was prefxed to contribu-
ton in a certain journal: "These
lines were written nearly fifty years
ago, by a gentleman who has for
years lain in the grave for his own
amusement. Another paper in re-
porting suicide said: deceased
blew out his brain after bidding his
wife goodbye with a gun -
The omission of a comma once
gave this awkward Interpretation to
paragraph in Dublin newspaper:
GA very handsome memorial has
been erected in the cemetary to the
memory of the late Mr.. Blank acct
dentally shot as mark of affection
by his brother"
In the following instance, it was no
doubt bachelor compositor who, in
setting up the toast: Woman, with
out her, man would be a savage!" by
trifing transportation fthe comma
made the sentence read: Woman,
without her man, would be a savage"
Once upon time, in sermon on
drunkenness, which appeared in a
newspaper, the reverend gentleman
was made to say: at was ouly last
Sunday that young girl fell from
one of the benches OF this church,
while | was preaching in a beastly
state of intoxication.
But, humanum est errare, and
everyone knows That compositors
are brinful of human nature. There
is no exception to the rule in Morris
vile. Only last week the transposi-
ton of letters "l'' and "a" in word
intended for "clause" in an item ~,
der the heading of State News 10
News AND CITIZEN, befuddled many
readers, one of whom clipped out the
item and inclosed it with an interroga-
tory letter to the enigma editor of
this paper. The item and letter fol-
low:
State Treasurer John L. Bacon has decided
that Bethel is not entitled to draw its in
crease of the public money until trustees of
public money are elected by the town A

"OLD HOME DAY."
VIII the Business Men of MOrrisviIIe Lend a
Helping Hand?


Within the past few months the
press of this state has said much in
favor of holding an "0ld Home
Week" in Vermont, during which
former residents, or as many of them
as possible, will be induced to return
to their native soil, visit relatives
and friends, renew old acquain-
tances, and enjoy themselves in Z" the
good old way" The cue has been
taken by a number of wide-awake
residents of MorrisviIle who believe
that local application can be made
successful on a smaller scale, the
idea being to have an cold Home
Day" for this village. The scheme
has been mentioned to a number of
business men here, all of whom favor
it.
1t is understood that letters have
already been written by some Morris
vile people to relatives and friends
in other states asking if it will be
possible for them to join in such a
reunion of Old-time VermOnters in
case an cold Home Day" is held
here next Summer, and that anumber
of favorable replies have been reoeiv-
ed. lis hoped that the right ones
will help along this "Old Home Day"
idea and make the same a successful
reality.
Some one has suggested that the
business men meet and talk over the
scheme. If it is deemed advisable
they can appoint a subscription COM
mittee, committee of arrangements,
etc., and "start the ball rolling" 1t
might be thought advisable to hold
appropriate cold Home Day" exer-
cises in town hall, engage a band to
furnish music at the Band Stand
during the day, serve a dinner or
supper, and make the day gala in
every respect.

Sub Rosa.

At The Randall last Sunday morn
ing, after breakfast, a number of male
guests of the house sat in a semi
circle in font of a steam radiator
near the desk in the Office. Various
subjects had been discussed pleasant
ly. When the church bells tolled, one
man arose from his chair and remark
ed:
"Well, l presume that you gentle
men are going to church ?"
All excepting one of the party nod
ded assent, and he expressed ere
grets" and said that during the CON-
ing Lenten Season he will regularly
attend ali oftheservices at the church
of his choice and that fish will form
his main article of diet.
Speaking of fish reminds me of an
experience that a friend Of mine had
once upon time" said FL. NJ. Cor
don, in tone of voice and with facial
expression indicating sincere earnest
ness. FIJI eyes we're fastened stead
lastly upon the speaker and two or
three stalwart men unconsciously
placed their hands upon their hip
pockets to make sure their handker-
chiefs we're ready for immediate use.
Mr.. Gordon continued: "My friend
lived near Lowell, and passed much
of his leisure time in fishing in Corey
Pond. One day he caught a very
large pickerel that had a fringe of
nine fish hooks hanging to its mouth,
which indicated that that denizen of
the deep had been we'll fed and had sue
cessfully eluded capture by nine Wal
toDites"-
Goa, that's nothing" interrupted
W. NJ. Clark, tonsorialist. 81 remem-
Der one time when fishing up in the
Mountains wi b my brother-in-law a
trout took off his "sinew" and hook
and few minutes afterwards | caught
that same trout with the "sinew"
and hook still fastened to it's Jaw. l
handed the rigging back to my
brother in-law and he used it the re-
maindpr of the day. We caught a
basketful of fish before returning
home"
"Pshaw, that's no more remark
able than an experience | had once"
laughed gOod-natured Van Burke,
whose reputation as a giIt-edged
stOry-teler is recognized wherever he
is known, Father once lost a fish hook
while angling after black bass and
the next day | caught the fish that
took that hook. Afterwards we had
the hook charged with electricity,
making it into a magnet, and used it
with great success in catching electric
cells. We would fasten it on the shore,
near the water, and the cells would
jump up onto dry land after it. Next"
!" Let me see: That recalls an in
cident in my boyhood days" said
Landlord Randall, who had stood
with hiS back turned towards the
story-teIers until the last speaker
had flashed, but nevertheless had
been an attentive listener. Gas said,

ed each OF the other ellglbles to an

"Oa guess" replied the jolly joking
landlord with a sly twinkle in his
eyes.

one
"Nor you didn't catch a girl?"
ventured another.
"Guess again" said the hotel keep
er.
"May beyou caught cold, suggest

Then they went to church.

BRIGHT CATTLE OUTLOOK
Arizona Stockmen Are Jubilant Over
 the Prospect.

It is very likely that never in the history of this territory has the out look been so bright for the cattle men. It is probable that there are fewer cattle in Arizona now than for years, but according to stockmen, in six months there will be more cattle on Arizona ranges than ever before. Re- ports from the north state that snow is still falling, adding to the already large supply that assures water storage for all summer A well-known cattleman remarked yesterday that the influx had already begun and that cattle which had been shipped to California three months ago, were on their way back. Every owner of herd was en- deavOring to increase his stock as there was now no possibility of a damaging drouth.
 Arlzona's good fortune comes just at the proper time, when the cattle in- dustry is rather on the decline in the larger part of the country.
 The agricultural department has given some tsartling figures of the de- cline of the cattle industry during rec ent years. the number of cattle in the country in several years being reported
