program of addresses which followed
the banquet. F. o. VanGalder, editor
of the Modern Woodman, divulged
iZation, and in his "reminiscences told
of the affairs OF the club since it's or
ganization II years ago.
Colonel c. s. Diehl of Chicago, as
sistant general manager of the Asso-
ciated Press, who was introduced as
"the man behind the gun" in that or
ganization, spoke on the subject, 1.-THE
Pulse of the World" In the course
Of his remarks Colonel Diehl said: Il
have been newspaper man FOR years
and years. / began when / was but a
boy. 1t is not a mOneymaking field,
but if had my life to live over again
and could choose my LIES work again,
l should choose to do exactly as l have
from the start. l am proud to be
a newspaper man
Colonel Diehl told of how he started
in small newspaper office, and
worked in the mechanical department
for some time, and then entered the
reportorial work He spoke of the As
indefirable things in an important work.
1t is a great organization, and has
grown in a remarkable way. in some
respects it has grown with the coun-
try, while in other respects its advance
has been far more rapid than that Of
the country 1t has circled the world,
and now has, it's own men working in
all of the capitals of the important
eastern countries far beyond the seas,
as wel7 as those of Europe. Through
these men the news of the world is
gathered, and it makes no difference

any story is never interrupted.
WAR EMERGENCIES.
THE Spanish-American war did
great deal for the organization
continued Colonel Diehl. ''Since
that war it's scope has been greatly
widened. Representatives are now To-
Gated at Pelin. in Japan, in the Phil
ippines and other places where no
American newspaper man had ever
been before. During the war all ca
piles from Cuba TO this country were
cut of, and the problem of finding a
way TO send the news to this country
confronted the news agencies. l
thought of placing man on
each flagship, and went to
the secretary of the navy and asked
if it would be feasible to do so. Secre-
tary Long said it would be out of the
question. Then l proposed a fleet Of
dispatch boats following in the wake
of the battle ships. This idea was re-
jected Then I went direct to Presi-
dent Mckinley, and he consented to
both propositions On condition that the
naval commanders were willing. They
consented To having a man from the
STAFF on each of the f1agships, and so
men were sent to report on these
ships. We chartered four boats, to be
used as dispatch boats, and with 81
men, all good newspaper men, we ran
these boats between islands and the
coast, and so conveyed the news of
the war to the country
