Cold eIoodsd Betting.

The extreme callousness Of the old
English gamblers-or gentlemen. as
they were then called-is illustrated by
the following account which Horace
Walpole, the celebrated letter writer,
gives of curious occurrence at Whites
coffee house in London. In one of his
epistles to Sir Horace Mann, under date
of Sept. I, 1850, he says: "They have
put into the papers good story, made
at Whites. A man dropped down dead
at the door and was carried in. The
club Immediately made bets whether
he was dead or not. and when they
were going to bleed him the wagerers
for his death interposed and said it
would affect the fairness Of the bet,
and they stopped their efforts"

First Printing Press.

The first printing press in the eastern
settlement Of America was set up In
1888. In the summer Of that year a
ship bearing printing press, printer
and three pressmen arrived on the
shores Of New England, the printer
being Stephen Daye. In the same year
the press was set up at Cambridge.
One Of the earliest and perhaps the
most celebrated Of the issues was ''The
Bay Psalm Book" It Is interesting to
know that the actual press is still pre-
served. After various wanderings in
Boston, Connecticut, New Hampshire
and Vermont 1t was found In Windsor
county and presented to the Vermont
Historical society.
