The FIrst

After much painstakng research the
antiquarians have ascertainej beyond
reasonable donbt that the first regular
newspaper ever printed Was issued from
Antwerp In 1905 By Abraham Vcrhoven
authority for such publication having
been obtained from the Archduke and
Duchess Albert and Isabelle. Antwerp
therefore, claims the honor Of having
given birth 10 the first newspaper editor
and the first newspaper, in consequence
Of which the city is making preparations
to observe in a fitting manner the three
bundreth anniversary Of journalism.
For Il long time the honor Of having
produced the first newspaper has been
disputed by England, France, Germany,
italy and Holland. and for years the
British museum exhibited a paper call.
81 the English Mercury, said to have
been printed in 1853, but which proved
to be a practical joke of Lord Hard
wicke. AS the first German paper only
appeared in 1915 in Frankfort; the first
Dutch paper in 1917; the first English
paper, the Weekly Gazette, in 1872, ard
the first French paper in 1851, the +
gritty o! Antwerp In the field ia asserted
and sustained, If is declared, by official
documents.
Shortly after the invention Of print.
ing, publishers from time to time issued
placards giving some sensational pieces
Of neEs, but it was not until Abraham
Verhoeven thought Of making these
publications at regular intervals that
what Is properly termed a newspaper
Was issued, and 1t has taken 297 years
for it TO reach it, present universal ex.
tent and influence. In 1903 the city oi
Antwerp intends IN celebrate the Both
anniversary Of journalism in an appro'
pirate manner. and when that city I'm.
dertakes such a celebration it ia be
lieyed it can out do any other in the ar
tistic manner in which it organizes il:
