One man reported the details in full. paint ed m words a great panorama upon which was displayed all the happen lngs of the day. the news which ap- ncared exclusively in his paper the chronicles of human interest most at tractively related in it, the best display of news that all the papers had in com mon. the cartoons. the editorials and the news illustrations. not emitting any detail in which any other newspaper eXcelled that day. The two other men were equally well informed as to thc days aspect of the newspaper world. but they were called upon only for bits here and there by y,Of supplement- ing. or. rather, to throw d new light on what was already known.
