Origin of, Italics.

Italic letters were first used about the
year 1900 by Aldus M%anutius, a Vene-
tian printer. He observed the many
inconvenience resulting from the vast
number of authorizations which were
then so frequent among the printers
that a book was difficult to understand.
A treatise was actually written on the
art of leading a printed book and thus
addressed to the learned. By introduce
ing the italic letter he contrived an ex-
pedient by which these authorizations
might be entirely got rid of and yet
books suffer little increase in bulk. He
dedicated his invention to the Italian
states; hence the name. 1t has also
been distinguished by the name Of the
inventor and called the Aldine. The
first book printed in italics was an edi-
ton of "Virgil' printed at Venice by
Aldus in 1901.

AN AFRICAN FOREST.
Peculiar Effects Produced by Wind.
Sunlight and Shadow.

Peculiar Effects by Wind,
Sunlight and Shadow.
An explorer describes a central AZ
RIGA forest: Ten miles west of the
lake begins the only piece of real vir-
gin forest met with. 1t is throughout
a dense virgin forest and almost i'm
penetrable. 1t consists. of very large
trees of many varieties. The upper
parts are festooned with a light gray
ish green moss hanging in long stream
ers and giving to the forest a very fan
tastic appearance. When these long
streamers are agitated by a storm they
make the whole forest, seen from one
of the hills near, look like a rough seq.
Again. when the sun is vertical the
whole forest appears dark. but when
the sun is low the general effect on
the sunny side is curiously light.
"AIl the trees are bound together
with innumerable lianas and creeping
plants. Between the stems is a dense
tangled mass of lesser vegetation. The
forest stands to a great extent in the
water and mud of the swamp, A
singular feature Of it is the abruptness
with which it begins and ceases on the
plain. The grassy swamp or open
country reaches to the mighty wall Of
trees, which continue in the same den
sity from One side to the other. There
is no smaller wood or scrub outside
forming a transition from the open
plain to the forest.
'Inside, the silence and gloom are
accumulated by the apparent absence
of animal or bird life. There are some
herds of buffaloes that make it a head
quarters, elephants visit it occasional
ly, monkeys and parrots are sometimes
seen, and a harnessed antelope now and
then appears at the edge, but the gen
eral impression left is n Of lifeless-
ness" |

BYNuM,s HEAVY HIT.

Concluding his speech for the
defence in the trial of Congressman
Blackburn, at Greensboro last Fri
day, Judge w. P. Bynum, u lead
ing republican went for the organ
ization leaders with gloves off.
He said he did not care to dis
cuss the case in a political staDd-
point, but it was plain from what
had developed that there were two
factions in the republican party,
one headed by Butler and HOlton,
and one by Blackburn for the rank
and file against the leaders. In
the rank and file were many he
roes and even martyrs, noble men,
firm in their convictions and filled
with patriotism, and none OF
these were among the so-called
"learders."
There was equally no doubt that
most of the leaders at this time
were simply a band of "freebooters
pirates and cut-throats."
1t was truthfully said of Wash
ington that he was first in war.
first in peace and first in the hearts
of his couatrymen. 1t can with
equal truth he said of those
LEADERS that they are ~''forever
at war, never at peace and forever
in the pockets of their coun-
trymen."
Judge Bynum has a way of say
ing what he thinks, without fear
or favor, reward or the hope of re-
ward. This is severe arraignment
of the leaders of his party, but he
ought to know whereof he speaks.
Even Anderson has not said as
much.
The French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1896-1912, 1906-04-26

State Chairman Rollins resentl
the insinuations of Judge Bynum
in the latter's Greensboro speech,
reference to which is made else
where in THE, HUSTLER to-day.
Mr.. R ollins issues an open letter
to the Judge and takes him to task
for slandering the party that has
so highly honored him. The plea
of self-defense is always justi-
fable and the young republican
chairman is entirely correct in
coming to the rescue of his party
associates. He terms Judge By
mum as an migrate and denounces
his u~tterance as a false and I'M
called for attack upon honorable
men.

THE HORNBILL.
A Bird That ImprfsOns His Mate Dur
ing the BrOOding Season

A Bird That ImprisOns His Mate Dur
ing the BrOOding Season.
A remarkable mode of Incarceration
is practiced by the hornbills, birds
with immense bills and horny crests,
which inhabit southern Asia, the Ma
layan islands and central and southern
Africa. In most If not all species the
brooding female is walled up in a hol-
low tree and fed by her mate.
She remains confined in her prison
until the eggs are Matched, and in some
species until the young birds are able to
fly. Meanwhile the mother has become
temporarily incapable of flight, as she
has molted, or at least shed all her wing
feathers, during her captivity. But the
male is indefatigable in providing for
his family and is said to work so hard
that he is reduced almost to a skeleton
at the end of the brooding season.
According to the theory of many ma
tives, the female is imprisoned to pre-
vent her neglecting her duty of brood
ing, and if she has been u%nfaithful or
negligent her mate closes the little
window of her cell and abandons her
to a painful death by s~uffocation. The
true story, perhaps, is this: The female
walls herself in so that she cannot fall
from the nest after losing her feathers
and also to protect herself from enc
mics. The building material is her own
excrement. This version is less poet
ical than the other, but it is probably
nearer the truth. 1t is supported by
the statement that the female liberates
herself as soon as the young birds are
well grown, so that her prison is less
formidable than it appears.-Scientif1c

Young men who have affair ed
their majority since June 1, 1905,
are not subject to poll tax for last
year and this provision of the con-
stitution will not be applicable to
them at the approaching election.
Those who reached the voting age
prior to June 1st must procure a
poll tax receipt for 1905. If same
failed to list this tax they may
yet report to the collector and set
the matter straight. Look out for
the young men. They are the hope
of the country.

The state auditor says that the
taxes this year will be about the
same as last and that they will be
ample to run the state, which has
not borrowed any mony since 1902
and that borrowed has been paid
back. North Carolina will COM
pare financially with any state in
the Union.

The cause of the famine in o
part of Japan is the failure of the
rice crop. To show what a large
falling off has been experienced in
the reduction of rice, it is stated
that in a locality where last year
the crop was $4,000 bushels, this
year the same fields have yielded
all told but 5 1-2 bushels.

Congress man DeArmond,
pointedly suggests the Rich Hin
Review, since he has been in Con
gress, has been paid the sum OF

OF this vast sum Sa,9l6.7s was
drawn on checks payable to his
order for his private secretary,
whose name and location we have
been unable 10 learn. When the
voter cnntemplates this great
sum and considers the service
rendered the district he will
naturally wonder IL It has been .
good inyestment-if results Just.
