Little "Old" News Now
In this day and age, there iS but
little bciatcd news. The telephone
ana the telegraph make It possible

few minutes from the time news ia
made. The strides that have been
made In this respect In the last hun
drcd years may be seen I'm that while

Newspapers usually have enough

newspapers know II.
The teleghaphic report which is
received by newspapers comes float
ing in from all over the world, and is
supposed to represent the important
news happenings Of the day. This
news is furnished by associations or
agencies, which have assembling and
distributing stations an over the
country A piece of news that might
bc Of comparatively great interest to
states bordering on the oceans mAy
not be Of much interest to the inland
states. Different news Is adopted to
different parts Of the country, and
therefore the same telcgraphic re.

graphic reports accounting for the

men, and all men have idiosyncrasics,
fads and eccentricitics that bctray
