THE REAL NEWSPAPER MAN.

The More Literary He is, Says T. p. O'con.
nor, tho More He IL a True Journalist.
T. 2. 0'Connor, NJ. p, recently de-
lIvered a lecture at the Birmingham
and Midland Institute ON Journalism, ;"
in which he asked: "How far could
journalism be literary?- The speaker
said he felt certain Impotence when
he heard journalism and literature put
into different and even opposite cate
gories.
The real journalist, he argued, was
a literary man, and the more he was
literary the more he was a true jour-
nalist. He altogether rejected the the
ory that hurried writing might not
often be good writing. The freshness
Of the impression. the eagerness Of the
feeling, even the fever in which the
writing was done-all these things
very often gave q description written
on the spur OF the moment yividness
which was one of the highest qualities
Of literature.
One of the most Woodworking and
most precarious departments Of liter
airy activity, said the speaker. was
short-story writing, A good, perfect
short story was one Of the most per-
feet things in literary art; but what
drudgery 1t was to find a new situa-
ton and new setting every time for
the world-worn theme Of love!
What he said constantly to young
story writers was that while they were
searching in the imaginations for the
material for the stories, the material
in reality was lying all around them
in the police court, in the law court, in
the coroner's room, on the stock eS-
change.
In the court of literature there was
no distinction of person. or faith, or
class, or nation. In its DEGREES the
beggar might ill higher place than
the prince; the creed and the priest of
one race were given with the one same
reverence, the same supreme desire to
present to the world the inner faith as
1t appeared TO those who accepted, and
not to those wlo rejected 1t.
Literature, concluded the speaker,
knew no distinction between races; it
was again fits duty and its function
to present each race as it appeared to
itself, and not In the travesty which
the hatred or the ignorance of its enc
mics may accept. ........

Fencing For Paris shopgirIs.

The latest development Of the scheme
for providing rational and healthy ex-
ercise for Paris working girls-dress-
makers, milliners and others-is class
for fencing. After singing, dancing
and defamation, "Nimi Pinson" is
now being taught to handle the folls,
and few nights ago, at an exhibit
ton at the Conservatoire Populaire,
the young women showed that they
could thrust and parry in quite a re-
markable fashion.
The one thing that annoys them is
that they are compelled to hide their
pretty faces behind unprepossessing
masks, but this, in the opinion of the
fencing mistress, is a small drawback
compared with the splendid result of
the vigorous exercise upon girls who
are imprisoned all day in stuffy shops
and ill.ventilated workrooms.-London

In recounting the speculative craze
at the time Of the South Sea bubble
two instances are given in Elizabeth
Thompson's History of England to
show how wildly absurd were the
schemes which were ioated. One was
a company promoted to import live
jackasses from Spain, to improve the
domestic breed; the other was a
scheme for casting sawdust into good
deal boards, without knots or splinters.
1t is little curious that both these
ideas are closely analogous to business
enterprises Of to-day,-M Magazine Of
