The temptation to pigeOnhole author is,
we suppose, undying in the human breast; but
there is one form Of literary cant which is far
too frequently encountered as result of this
fact We refer TO the practice illustrated by
the following passage, which we find in a
recent elaborate tribute" TO a novelist of in
finitesimal consequence "It is a vain thing
to attempt to place man who is still in mid
career, but thus much may be said" etc.
Now, in the first place if the thing is vain
why say anything about it? And, secondly
why should the average romancer Of the most
ordinary talent be placed at all? He has
no place" and never will have one in the
sense that is implied by such a remark as
that just quoted. He is one of a vast army
Of scribblers whose works are salable and
readable enough, but whose chances of
future amount, obviously, to just nothing at
all There is no cruelty in saying this of GER
tain writers, whether they be only in mid
career or not The first pages they print give
them away for what they are, mediocre in the
very grain. The absurd notion that the dcs-
tiny of these book makers is partially hidden
from US springs partly, perhaps. from the cur
rent acceptance of books which have been
produced. so to say, by main strength. An
author reads up an historical period with n
little invention manages to get plot together
and puts his story into respectable English.
1t is promptly "boomcd' into nOtoriety thou

people convinced that the author has en-
barked upon career. so he has: but il is
not literary career; it is one Of commerce.

shiny gold locket on the little girls
bosom and, with the craft of his kind,
he accepted her peanuts until his
chance came.
Once, twice, three times he stretched
his paw between the bars to take them,
each time encouraging his benefactor
to draw nearer. Then, with a sudden
thrust, he snatched the locket, snap
ped 1t from it's chain, and, hugging 1t
to his bosom, sped gloating to his cor
ner. He was turning 1t over like a.
connoisseur, making two of it in his
magic mirror, and finally placing 1t in
the center OF design formed by his
eighteen shiny cents, when the keeper
came. Then there was a fight. Sage
objected to giving up his treasure. The
keeper insisted. At last 1T came to
blows. A sharp cuff sent the miserly
plutocrat rolling, and the keeper de-
parted with the locket. ALI the other

TYPOS MAKE MANY CHANGES.
Hereafter oldest Sub" Must Have
the First Vacancy.

Cincinnati, Aug. 13.-The convention
of the International Typographical
Union made many changes in it's laws
to-day. After providing yesterday for
the oldest substitute getting the first
vacancy, 1t to-day restricted the hours
per week to a maximum of f1fty-four,
put evening papers with Sunday edi-
tions on the evening basis and made
many minor changes.
An effort to include superintendents
as well as foremen in the membership
failed. 1t developed that there will
be strong opposition among the dele
gates to indorsing the newly organized
International Ladies' Auxiliary, al
though there is no opposition to local
ladies' auxiliaries.
The convention became very animat-
ed on an alleged factional fight" that
was precipitated by the Indianapolis
Union, and showed it's conservative
spirit in defeating a proposition to pro-
hibit any member from belonging to
the militia.
Suggestions for the place of holding
the convention next year were made,
naming Asheville, N. c., Newark, N.
j., Richmond, Va, Washington, D. c.,
and Salt Lake City. The contest seems
to be between Washington and New
ark.

manufacturing district and closed con-
tracts for old papers. Business grew
with the years. and he extended his
"overrun" contracts to the st. Louis
Globe Democrat and the Chicago Rec
ord-Herald. Now he has purchased all
of the "overruns" in Chicago and st.
Louis, and is shipping old papers for
distribution to his. trade.
A few years ago Budd adopted an
other branch of the newspaper junk
business. All old zinc used in MAX
ing the etchings that appear in the
newspapers Is sold to him, and he sells
the purchase to smelteTs. He finds the
old newspaper business the most in
teresting. however.
This is Budd's dull season. The
glass factories are closed for the sum-
mer, and he is storing his paper. He
has summer customers, however. in
the paper mills. He sells millions
of old newspapers to the pa
per mills. and the latter use
them in the manufacture of bristol
board. The old papers serve as "filling''
for the board.
In the early autumn Budd begins
shipping carload after carload OF news
papers to the glass factories. His sup
ply is taxed to It's capacity. His wag-
ons frequently back up at the door of
the newspaper press rooms, and the
"overruns" are quickly carted away
for shipment.
Budd has a monopoly of the old
newspaper business, because he has
contracted with the newspapers for
their "overrun." He cannot be hurI-
ed from his nonopolistic perch by
competition, because he has the bust
ness so we'll in hand that the news
papers have no trouble in getting their
"overrun" out of the way quickly.

PRINCE LOVES AMERICAN GIRL
kaiser's Heir Would Give Up Throne
to Wed Miss Deacon.
From the New York Sun,

Paris, Aug. 1.-THE Matin, which
printed story yesterday to the effect
that the German Crown Prince had
had a violent interview with his faith
er in which he expressed desire to re-
nounce his rank and give up his claim
to the throne in order TO marry for
love. says to-day that Miss Gladys
Deacon, daughter of the late Edward
Parker Deacon, is the object of the
young Princes affection.
The paper adds that Miss Deacon
told Prince Frederick William thai
she would never consent to a morga.
matte alliance. and if he desired tc
marry her a full religious and Iega
ceremony would be necessary.
Three days after Miss Deacon'c
avowal the Crown Prince gave her q
ring which he had sworn to give tc
nobody except his wife, it being a
present he had received from his
grandmother, the late Empress Fred
erick.
Miss Marie Gladys Deacon, who is
credited with having won the affec-
tions of the young Prince, is the eld-
est daughter of the late Edward Par
ker Deacon, who, on Feb. II, 1892 at

whom he suspected of being his wite's
lover. Deacon was imprisoned at the
time, tried at Nice, convicted and SEN
fenced to one years Imprisonment.
In September of the same year he
was pardoned by President Carnot and
released.
Mrs. Deacon is a daughter of the
late Admiral Charles H. Baldwin, u.

the time of her marriage to Deacon
in 1879. Shortly after their maria ge
the Deacons moved to Paris, where
they continued to live until the time
of the scandal that broke UP their fam
lily life. They moved in the best So
ciety and Mrs. Deacon was a favorite
everywhere.
Deacon himself was retiring by ma
ture and of a somewhat eccentric mind
but their marriage seemed to be hap
Ply. Four children were born to them,
all daughters, and were named Marie
Gladys. Ida Audrey, Dorothy Evelyn
and Edith Florence.
AS soon as Deacon had been released
from prison he went to Paris to bring
suit for divorce and for the custody
of his children, who till then had Ie-
manned with the mother. He also
brought a similar suit in this city.
Mrs. Deacon tried to head him off by
a counter suit, but failed. He secured
a divorce and the custody of all the
children, but settlement was shortly
afterward effected by which the two
oldest girls were left with Mrs. Dea-
con.
In 1896 Deacon returned to this eoun-
try with Dorothy and Edith. Mrs
Deacon stayed in Paris, and for some
time there was much talk of a mar

TROOPS USED IN FRANCE.
Needed TO Protect Police Against
Villagers.

Villagers.
Bfest, France, Aug. 13.-Soldiers have
been requisitioned in several places in
Finisterre during the past two or three
days to protect police commissaries en-
gagged in closing religious schools from
threatening crowds. Thirteen schools
belonging to white sisters remain I'M
closed in Finisterre.
The expulsion of the sisters at Con-
carneau was undertaken to-day.
Scouts on automobiles reached the
town at o'clock in the morning from
Quimper and reported that troops We're
on the way. The tocsin was rung,
bugles were blown and boys ran
through the streets ringing handbells.
Lard crowds gathered around the rail-
road station and around the school.
Several bodies of gendarmes and two
companies of infantry arrived by a
special train. The commissary ordered
the school evacuated, at which the
crowd shouted, Long live the sis
tersi"
The commissary finally forced an
entrance to the school. When this
had been accomplished the sisters
amid the vehement protests of the
crowd, left the building.
Entrance to the school in the village
of Benzec was also forced. Here the
sisters, when they emerged from the
school building, were conducted to the
church by the Mayor and a process
sion of people headed by the national
flag draped in crepe.
