SPLENDID BLUNDERs.
somc Errors That Have necn Ter
pctratcd b. tie p'ypca.

eomc Errors That Have nccn psr-
pctratcd by the Types.
Errors OF the press often begin with
errors Of reporters who have misundcr-
stood spoken words. The rule of fol-
low copy co.npels the compostor TO re-
peat the exact words written by the
Reporter, and the following blundcrs
are tiIc result Of obedience TO this rule.
A speaker made this statement:
I'm these days clcrgymcn are expect
ed TO have the wisdom and learning of
Jeremy Taylor" But the reporter
wrote and the eompoeitor repeated
"thc wisdom and learning of II jour
neyman tailor"
Another speaker quoted these lines;
oh. come, thou goddess fair and free.
In heaven yclcpt Euphroryno.
They were printed aS writtcn
Oh come, thou goddess fair ana FREQ.
In heaven she crcpt ana frozo her knee.
Another orator quoted this line from
Tcnnyson's "Locksley Hall"
Deter MY years OF Europe than cycle
OF Cathuy.
Rut tho quotation was written and
printed:
Better fifty years OF Europe than a circus
In Bombay
One OF the worst pcrverslons of n
hackneyed quotation, incorrectly given
by the speaker, is this, which seems to
! be the joint work of the Jealous re.
porter and the equally reckless printer:
Amicus Plato amicus So,gatcs, sea major

patients at the pest house near Mingo
Junction are having lots of fun at the
expense of the neighboring farmers.
During the day the convaiescent pa
tients frequently chase rabbits and
squirrels in the woods in which the
house is situated. At night men with
lanterns rob chicken roosts and pig
cons at their will, the farmers sitting
by and not daring to molest them for
fear they may be patients who will
communicate the disease.

There was meeting last night of
prominent business men with ID. w. c.
Merriam, of Chicago, one of the men
interested in the American Lumber
company. Mr. Merriam has remained
here while the others in the company
have gone on to examine the Mitchell
forests.
The meeting at the Commercial club
last night was in connection with the
location of the company's mills. The
company wishes the city to furnish a
site, water and lights. Mr.. Merriam
said he was not authorized to speak
for the company. but personally he
was in iavor of coming here. 1t is be-
lieved that proposition on the basis
mentioned would secure the mills for
Albuquerque and the sentiment was in
favor of making such proposition. A
committee consisting of Mayor c. F.
Myers, NJ. W. Flournoy and w. p. Met
calf was appointed to see what can be
done.
The other officers of the company
will return here tomorrow.

MAKES NO DIFFERENCE.
Reduction on Cuban sugar Duties Will
Help Cuba.

Washington, May arthur Donner
treasurer of the American Sugar Re.
finlng company, and Henry G. Lott
purchaser of raw sugar for the com.
pany, testified before the senate com
mitee on Cuban relations today con.
cerning American holdings of Cuban
sugar. Donner corroborated the tes-
timony of President Havemeyer as to
the amount of Cuban sugar purchased
by the trust since January l. In re.
sponse to Mr.. Teller's question, he said
about half of this still remained In
Cuba. He had taken no interest in Sc
curing a reduction of sugar duties by
congress nor had the trust, so far as
he knew. Mr.. Teller asked II he knew
whether any stockholders had:
II do not: know nothing about it,
responded Mr.. Donner. Mr.. Lott testi
fed that in the course of a year the
trust purchased probably so per cent Of
the sugar crop of Cuba. He said the
benefit from a reduction on Cubar
sugar duties would only accrue to the
Cuban seller, and there will be no diff
ference in the purchase price.
