LIKE THE Wall OF BANSHEE
MournfuI Cry of the Screech-owI
Heard in Youth, Plainly Recalled
In After Years.

From the orchard, too, on an autumn
midnight, comes the mournful whistle
of a screech-owl. Most of us who
have heard the screech-owl at all have
heard its call drifting down from an
old orchard on frosty October night.
The chill of coming winter, the cattle
stamping in dark stables, dim and
ghostly world stretching over .garnered
fields to the mystery of the woods, and
a gnarled, ancient orchard up the
slope seem phantomlike under wan
ing moon-these are the setting for
the screech-owl's mournful whistle.
can at this moment shut my eyes, re-
produce that whistle in my throat, and
bring back to memory as if it were
yesterday, the scene as my boyhood
eyes saw it from my chamber win
dow, whence peeped with frosted
breath before diving into bed, and
can actually smell (for all the tobacco
smoke in my present study the pc
culiar odor Of the cold October night
air, and feel again a vague, almost
terrifying melancholy chill in my
heart as, in the darkness, heard from
the orchard that reiterated WHO'D 90
oo-oo. Like the whip-poor-will on the
pasture rail on a hot evening of July,
this other night-singer of New Eng
land seems to dwell just on the skirts
of human habitations and to keep our
souls reminded of the sadness Of the
world.-Walter Prichard Eaton, in
Harper's Bazaar.

DATES FROM THE ROMAN ERA
World conquers Had What Core.
sponded to Daily Newspaper-The
First English Publication

The first daily newspaper In Eng.
llsh appeared in London March IL,
i7O2, 210 years ago.
News letters and pamphlets printed
from time to time when news or poll.
tics warranted had been common
enough during the latter half of the
preceding century, but these were in
no sense newspapers.
The first daily" was called The
Daily Courant and was published by
f. Mallet, against the Ditch at Fleet
bridge"-close by the site OF the pres
ent London Times Office The paper
was only a single sheet of two col
umns. It professed to give only for
eign news with the name Of the for
eign source.
So keen was the publisher to steer
clear of any responsibility for his
news, and to hide himself and his
views In the background, that he says
in his first issue in so many words he
will make no comments of his own,
"supposing other people to have sense
enough to make reflections for them
selves"
The Daily Courant, which lasted
until 1875. may be said to be the first
daily newspaper in anything like the
modern sense. Yet the Romans had a
publication called Daily Happenings
(Acta Diurna) which noted the move
ments of the armies and elections,
games, sacrifices or wonders of the
town. These were written out by
special officers, deposited in the state
archives, and copies posted about the
city. A few circulated privately. A
Roman satirist describes a lady look |
ing over the news in the morning.

Thackeray once acted as police re-
