AUTOCRAT OF THE PAPER.

The Composing Room Foreman
VIXEN the Edition Ia Going to Press.
If the newspaper Office were surround,
cd by an invading army or ticTcely bonn
bardrd, the aut0crat of the composing
room would insist on the locking up Of
the forms and the stcreotyping uf the
pages as usual There is no limit to his
devotion to duty. One night. for In
stance, in a provincial newspaper office,
the composing room was suddenly en-,
veloped III smoke, aid there was the cry
of Fire.
Fire or no fire we must get to press,
snarlcd the OversCCr, giving ont late
telegram to the cOmpositOr out of copy
at the desk side.
The type was brought, galley after
galley, pushed upon the imposing stones
arranged in pages and screwed into the
forms ready for transit to the foundry
Meantime evidence was abundant that
the adjacent building was in flames. The
smoke became denser. Outside the office
there was the shout of people, the clattcr
of horses feet, the rattle Of fire engines;
inside the heavy tread of fremen on the
stairs, the bursting open of the compos-
ing room door and the hurried entrance
of two members of the fire brigade drag
ging hose pipe.
The ovcrseer, elaring at the intruders,
sprang from his seat bubbiing with in
dignation and shouted: Here, you fcI,
lowsi What the mischief are you do
ing?"
1--WE are--c'king the hose through-to
play on the burning building" jerkcd out
one Of the firemen, astounded at the over
SceT's bclligeTcnt attitude
''Then go and play somewhere elscr'
hoarsely exclaimed the ovcrsccr, trying
to shoulder them out of the room.
''But the place is ON fre!' exclaimed
the men in amazempnt.
Il don't care ii the whole city's on
fire-wc must get to press" reared the
overseer. And he did, though the first
edition had narrow squeak of pubiCu-
ton. for the Office windows blurred and
cracked with heat, and the composing
room was deluged with water.-Good

One hundred years ago pocket picking
was a capital olrensc where anything
worth more than a shilling was taken
for which the offender could be sentenced
to death in this country. There were
over 200 offenses at that time for which
death sentences could be passed. Sir
Samuel Romiliy. who devoted himself ~
pamphlet and parliamentary agitation to
the amelioration of the criminal law, sue
cecded after great difficulty in getting
pocket picking removed from the list
Very little more than 100 years ago u
seaman was hanged for complaining Of
the quality of the provisions. Seventy
men on board the Namen. in Portsmouth
harbor, set cut for London to lay their
complaint as to the provisions before tie
lords of the admiralty Fifteen of them
procured an audience, hut were ordered to
be put in irons and carried back to Ports
mouth to be tried by court martial for
mutiny. They were all sentenced to death,
and one was actually hanged, the SEN
fences of the other II being RENTED. In
the sixteenth century death sentences
could be passed for malicious tearing or
dcfacing the garments OF any person,
breaking a bank Of fish pond or cutting
down a tree in an orchard.-London Tit

The chief added another warning,
though he saw the humor of the thing
and smiled behind his mask. Blrney
might stay on for few days. but he
must keep that nose attachment OF his
in the background and his tongue be-
tween his teeth. He went out OF the
police office meaning to dc 1t. but
scarcely "a hours had passed away
when he accidentally met French
doctor who could speak English fairly
we'll. Birney was naturally asked why
he had visited Paris, and of course he
told of the bullet proof vest. Having
got started, he couldn't stop there
"Say, do you know l could fix the
emperor's nose III less than month";
he remarked in a burst of confidence.
"Yes, sir. l could improve that smell
er OF his Mt least 80 per cent in three or
four weeks, and I wouldn't charge
cent either"
1.-THE emperor's noser' gasped the
doctor. "But what ails the emperors
noseY'
"Out of plumb, sir, and no excuse for
It All I want is three weeks time.
Can't you get me an audience with
himP
1.-The devil! Why, man, you are in
sulting the emperor! You ought to be
locked upr'
"Oh, come noww laughed Birney in
protesting way. 81 never saw such
people before. Can't the emperors
nose be out of plumb as we'll as any
other man'sT'
The doctor left him without even a
cold bow aud probably went to the
police, as Birney was arrested an hour
later. According to his story. he was
sent to prison without trial and de-
tanned for a full year. Then he was
taken out one day and conveyed to the
war office and into the presence of Ma
poleon.
"Sir," said the emperor after glazing
at him for awhile, sis my nose out of
plumb"
at is as plumb as plumbet," was
the ready reply.
"Does it need any fixing overT
Not fix"
"And how is it with yours"
ITS out of joint, your majesty, but

And try he did, and his nose led him
back to the land of the free without
any lingering on the road.

TOLD OF MARCUS DAILY.
An Anecdote which Illustrates Why
lie Was So Popular.

81 knew the late Marcus DAILY fairly
we'll" said n western man, land 1 can
bear testimony to the blunt kindliness
that made him so wonderfully popular
among the rough miners of northern
Montana. He was n merciless bargain
driver and seemed to take Il sportsman
like pleasure in the pursuit of money;
but, once secured, he would give it away
as prOdigally as prince. l recall lit
tie incident that illustrates both phases
of his character.
''In 1889, or thereabout, very decent
sort of fellow who was running n grocery
store in Butte City got in hard lines
financially through no fault Of his own
and found it would be necessary to raise
about $1,000 to tide him over the crisis.
He asked a bank in which Mr.. DAILY was
a director to discount his note for that
amount and offered mining stock as col
lateral. The application was considered
by the officials and favorably passed up
on, when DAILY happened in and prompt
ly turned it down. He declared the
chances were decidedly against the note
being paid and that the stock was GER
tain to depreciate before the paper ma
tured.
III sui VI was LN
lated to the grocer by friend on the
board of directors. and naturally he was
deeply imbittered. He declared that Da-
ly had gone out of his way to ruin him
and cursed him high and low as a heart
less old rascal.
"a few days later DAILY himself drop
ped in at the store. 4 hear you're hard
up, my boy said he. What's the situa-
ton, in few wordsT The grocer told
him, rather sullenly, about how he stood.
That's all right said DAILY. L had to
throw out your note the other day, be
cause make it rule not to let the bank
take risky paper, but I'll tell you what
I'll do. III give you my personal check
for the amount and put your note in my
safe. If you can't take it up when it falls
due you can make out another one The
grocer was so surprised he could hardly
express his thanks, and incidentally he
mentioned the collateral oh, hang the
collateraln said Daily. 4 amt doing this

AS he predicted the stock went 10

twice renewing his note DAILY did lots Of

excited. On one occasion he was show

a sharp curve when they perceived a
tlagman coming toward them, waving his
red flag frantically. Shut her off; call
for brakes, reverse and drop sand" came
the orders from the guide.
The new man obcyed promptly, and
then turned to ask what to do next and
heard the guide say, Jump as far az you
can and rum" and he set the example
himself, for when the new engineer got
up out Of blackberry patch Mt the bot
tom of a 80 foot embankment, he looked
over the fence and saw the guide seated
on stump watching the engine blowing
into cabin car and two box cars.

WEARY wlLLlEs' PARADISE.
Why the Hobo That Drifts to Central
America Ncvcr Drifts BACK

Why the Hobo That Drifts to Central
America Never Drifts Back.
"a good many typical American hoboes
drift down to Central America" said an
official of local banana company, land
one good thing about it is that they never
get back again. The country seems to
suit them up to the hilt. l have been
watching the tramp travel for several
years, and it has afforded me eonsidera-
bic amusement. Some of them scrape
up enough money to pay for a deck pas
sage, but most of them stow away or go
down as roustabouts. When they land,
they generally drift little distance into
the interior, and that settles it.
