BOOK PLATES.
Their Invention Came Half a Century
After the Printing Press.

From the Journal Of American History.
1t was within half century from the in
vention of printing that book plates were
introduced as identifying marks to indicate
the ownership Of the volume.
Germany, the fatherland of printing from
movable type and Of wood cutting for max
ing impressions in ink on paper, is likewise
the home land of the book plate.
The earliest dated wood cut Of accepted
authenticity Is the well known "St Chris
topher of 1929 which was discovered in
the Carthusan monastery of Buxheim in
Suabia.
1t was to insure the right of ownership In
book that the owner had it marked with
the coat-of-arms of the family, or some
other heraldic device. Libraries were kept
intact and passed from generation to gem
GRAFTON, bearing the emblem of the family
The first book plate in France is dated
1874; in Sweden, 1915; Switzerland, 1907
and Italy, 1923. The earliest English book
plate is found in folio volume once the
property of Cardinal Wolsley and afterward
belonging to his royal master.
The earliest mention of the book plate In
English literature is by Pepys, July 16, $685.
The first known book plate in America be-
longed to Gov. Dudley. Paul Revere the
patriot, was one of the first American en-
gravers of book plates and a designer of
great ability.

Old Time Rehearsals.
in McClure's Magazine.

Ellen Terry, in McClures Magazine.
The rehearsals for "a Winters Tale"
were a lesson in fortitude. They taught
me once and for all that an actress life
(even when the actress is only eight is
not all fun and glory.
1 was cast for the part of Mamilius, and
my heart swelled with pride when was
told what l had to do. But many weary
hours were to pass before the first night
If company has to rehearse four hours
a day now 1t is considered a great hard
ship, and players must lunch and dine
like other folk But this was not Kean's
way. Rehearsals lasted all day, Sundays
included, and when there was no play
running at night until or o'clock the
next morning.
1 don't think any actor in those days
dreamed of lunch. How my poor little
legs used to ache! Sometimes 1 could
hardly keep my eyes open when 1 was on
the stage, and often, when my scene was
over, I used to creep into the greenroom
and forget my troubles and my art (if you
can talk Of art in connection with a child
of eight) in a delicious sleep.

"I Guess" and Calculate"
lator Lodge, in Scribner's.

Senator Lodge, in Scrfbner's.
The accepted manner Of defining Ameri-
cans, either male or female, in the London
comic papers or in second-rate English nov
els is to lard their speech plentifully with
Calculate and guess" and with well
at the opening Of each sentence. This
mode of marking, or any other, is in itself
totally unimportant, but linguistically it is
not without interest, for while 1t is purely
conventional as now used and has no rea-
ton to any American habits of the pres
ent day, whether good bad, 1t is pleas
ant to note that the hard-worked insular
humorst need not have gone far afield to
find the words necessary for the identih-
cation Of Americans. They really had but
to turn to the New Letters of Thomas
Carlyle (vol. l., page 17S and there read
the following sentence: He has brought
you Fox's Book of Martyrs, which 1 call
culate will go in the parcel today; you
will get right good reading out OF 1t, 1

The Sweet Child.

From the Automobile Owner.
In crowded Darracq-S -Serpollet steam
bus, which is very popular in the north OF
England was seated a middle-aged gentle
man who was trying to read. He was SUBJ

girl, who also tugged at his gold watch
chain. Turning to the lady who was with
the child the middle-aged gentleman was
heard to say: Madam, what do you call
this sweet chid?" The mother smiled and
answered Ethel" Please call her, then"

Said Money Belonged to Wife.

1t is recalled that he frequently went out
of his way to tell his friends that he was
not betting his own money, but he was
stalking money that belonged to his wife.
Much of his time was spent getting tips"
and he patronized handbook men, or would
by phone get into communication with
layers of odds in Baltimore. He always
told of his winnings, but seldom had any
thing to say what he lost.
1t is thought by some members of the
police department that his manipulation of
the funds started several years ago, and
that some of the money he borrowed he
used to straighten accounts with the de-

instructions to draw the attention of man

NEW YORK. July 6.-Vandeline Pollock,
who lives at 37S West 4ath street and keeps
a small restaurant in Broadway. went 10
the Iorkville police court yesterday To ex-
plain how he lost 81 .oiO at the tapless wire,
tapping game.
he had caused the arrest OF Joseph Gold
smith, who said his address was 1872 West
3sth street. Pollock said he had lost tho
savings OF twenty years in his efforts to
make money on the ponies. He frst drop
ped 5000 in his visits to the race track
he day about two weeks ago n man who
dined in his restaurant started conversa-
ton about the races and told how he and
some of his friends were able to beat the
poolrooms by holding back the results from
the track until bet was put down on the
winner. 1t was the same old story hut It
appeared new to the restaurant man, who
was anxious To recover the money he had
lost and add a little To 1t for his trouble.
He was conducted to a house on East 55th
street. where he saw half dozen men in
what he was informed was n poolroom.
Came Back for More.
They got his thousand and odd. They
were not satisfied with that, for they knew
he had about 500 more in bank. and wanted
it. They told him he would surely have
better luck next time and he said maybe.
But he became suspicious the next day
and went to police headquarters and told
his experience TO Inspector McCafferty of
the detective bureau. 1t was on Tuesday
last that he lost his money, and according
to the arrangements he was to put up the
$500 on Friday. Detectives Young and Crif
fin of the central office trailed the restau-
rant man when he went to keep the ap
pointment at Sd avenue and 54th street
1t was there that Goldsmith met him and
the two went up the avenue With the de-
tectives following. Goldsmith apparently
recognized his trailers and was about to
leave the restaurant man, whereupon he
was arrested.

last night the investigation will not be

jewelry had been taken from the safe by

 Last night Deputy Sheriff William J. Moffitt followed suspected China man to the park. When he approached him the Chinaman opened fire, which was returned by Moffitt. Hearing the shots, Special Policeman Murdock came to the assistance of the deputy sheriff At this moment four men, apparently whites, opened fire on the officers.
