MAKING A NEWSPAPER

The interested crowds to be seen
 dally about the windows of any of 1 the newspaper offices of large cities
 watching with wondering eyes the giant presses in action. bear witness
 to the fact that even the most blasc city dWeller is moved by the miracle
 which infallibly delivers the news of
 all the world to him at his break
 fast table. By the courtesy of one
 of America's most famous journals | the Edison company has been enabled
 to make series of pictures graphi- cally Illustrating the entire process
 of newspaper manufacture
 Beginning with the linotype or typesetting machine. every operation
 of which is shown in minute detail | We follow the type to the "make-up'
 room where it is assembled into
 frames in it's proper order by skilled | Workmen. The completed frame is | taken into the "matrix room" where an impression or matriX is made of it on piece of specially prepared cardboard The type is then melted and returned to the linotype while ! the matriX is now ready for the l Auto Press This is q solid plate of lead, the exact size of a newspa- per page, made by q wonderful me chanical device from the cardboard impression. These solid plates are sent to the press room and installed 1 in the giant presses. Paper is fed into the presses at one end in great rolls. and the complete finished pro- duct in the shape of neatly folded papers emerges from the other end 1t the surprising rate of four hun dred per minute
 The development of labor saving l devices to create high order of eff | ficiency is well exemplified in the | pictures shown of the mailing and 1 shipping department where thousands 1 of papers must be wrapped and ad- l dressed daily for suburban delivery.
 Finally q touch of nature is added 1 to this procession of mechanical tri- ! umphs by the picture showing the distribution of papers to the news boys
 It is hardly necessary to state that this film is of high educational value Every attention has been given t. 1 detail and from raw materials to finished product. the different steps are 50 clearly illustrated that the Iayman can follow them with per feet ease.
 Yesterday witnessed the first release
 
 series of pictures. These pictures of What Happened to Mary" had such a vogue when they came first from the studios. a popularity stimulated in no small degree by the fact The Ladies World" undertook to sponsor the pie lures. that there has been constant demand for more pictures showing the adventures of Mary. The new one is called "A Proposal from the Duke and shows a handsome American girl Mary Fuller made the target for the admiration of a member of decaded aristocracy. and what she does under the circumstances.
 Mir Carlyle Blackwell paid q visit to san Diego a few days ago and while there attended a picture show. As he stopped on his way out to chat with the manager, he overheard two young sters engaged in animated conversa- ton. There's Blackwell!" exclaimed 1 one Do you know he's deaf and l dumb? That's the reason he's working 1 in pictures" When the actor could | control his laughter he stepped over and broke up the argument by greeting | the boys with a cheery Hello" Un- able to sustain his argument the youngster incontinently fled
 The Kalem players who recently | stopped al Winchester, Virginia, to produce several plays in the pictur- esque mountains had an amusing eX- perenCe with fox that was used in a hunt picture. The little animal, which 1 was pursued over meadows and through streams by scores of dogs, was pro- vided by a Virginan who kept it in a box between scenes. When Director Bue1 announced that he would no longer require the fox the owner set it free. All stood back to see the animal make a dash for liberty. MT Fox,
