PUiiTZER'S SCl TALKS
ON NEWSPAPER Mixing.
Heir Of Late Publisher Says latter's
Religion Was Truth.

Ralph Pulitzer, son of the late Joseph
Pulitzer, who endowed the Pulitzer
school of Journalism, received an en-
thuSiastic greeting from the Columbia
students when he addressed them in
the Earl hall auditorium. He spoke of
the ayidity with which his father seized
on all sources of knowledge.
Mr.. Pulitzer was scathing in his char.
acterization of the newspaper which ad-
mits that facts embarraSs rather than
please it, Such paper he put in the
class of monstrUsitics, while the paper
that prints inaccurate statements, how
ever innOcently. lac described as one
performing an essentially abnormal
function" He said in part:
Accuracy in newspaper writing was
with Joseph Pulitzer a religion. He had
a ravenous craving for information.
His intellect was positively leechlike in
the way il fastened on any other intel
lect with which it came in contact and
sucked from il every specific fact II
contained that he did not already know
He was intolerant of congratulations
and impatient Of conclusions. He would
draw his own. He hated an inaccurate
statement as another man would loathe
a lie He was inexOrable in running ii
down and tearing it to pieces. Scrupu
lOus as was his love of accuracy I'm the
news columns, il was nothing com
pared TO the almost painful conscien-
tiousness of his precision on the editO-
rial page. Among his intimates, in his
spoken words. glowing white hot from
the furnace of his convictions, he was
always vehement, often violent and not
seldom intensely Incorporate In his
statement of a case. These same quail
tiles therefore appeared In the first
rough dictated draft of an editorial
Paragraph by paragraph. word by
word, he would then sometimes for
days work his way through that edito-
rial, weighing each word 70 see wheth-
er Ii was ever so little Of en- overstate-
ment or understatement or a misstate-
ment of exact fact.
THE newspaper" Mr.. Pulitzer went
on, sis manufactured out Of the sub
tlest. most volatile. most elusive raw
material in the world-the truth"
He showed the difficulties with which
every newspaper had to contend In get
ting. writing. printing and distributing
it's facts, resulting often in unfortunate
but innocent inaccuracies. in order that
he might point out and criticise more
severely those other inaccuracies in
some papers which are not innocent
but are vicious. deliberate fakes.

"PUG" PRAYS IN PRIZE RING.
English Champion Also Touched Ro-
sary on Ankle and Won.

Johnny Summers, the welterweight
boxing champion of England, who re-
tanned Lord Lonsdale's belt symbolic
ing that distinction by defeating Sgd
Burns at the National Sporting club. is
a devout Catholic.
Just before the fight began Summers
knelt in his corner. bowed his head
reverently and made the sign Of the
cross. Then he sprang to his feet like
a panther. dashed at his man and with
both hands did his best to hammer the
sense out of him. At the end of each
round Summers turned down his left
sock and touched a rosary that was
wound around his ankle, and at the
call OF the time to start each bout he
dropped on one knee and passed his
right hand across his face.
When the fight was over and he had
conquered on points after twenty fierce
rounds Summers again dropped to his
knees In his corner. Although In such
place and at such time the actions
Of the pug" seemed utterly incongru-
Gus. there was not even litter from
the assemblage Of sports and fighting
men. Indeed. not a few present were
obviously moved by the simple faith
and courage Of the man.

RUSSIA TO HAVE STATE PAPER
Will Disclose Details of Passport Trou'
bic With United States.

News has been received from st
Petersburg that the Russian govern
ment is intending 10 publish state pa
per at the end Of the month on Rus
sian-American relations, In which il
will set forth the Russian standpoint
on the passport question, as well as the
circumstances leading to the Russian
American conflict, together with cop
les of notes exchanged between both
governments
At a meeting held recently at the
Russian ministry of commerce to de
eide upon the course to be pursued ON
the expiration Of the commercial treaty
With the United States IL was decided
for the present not to make any altera-
ton In the existing customs duties on
American imports unless such action
should be necessitated by American
discrimination against Russian exports.
One report says that the passport
question cannot be further discussed
because the manner and form in which
the question was raised by the United
States was a serious offense to Russia
as a great power Under other condi
tions-that Is, had America broached
the subject In a more diplomatic and
considerate fashion-the czar is report
ed to have said that the question might
have found a different and a favorable
solution.

WHY WILSON DROPPED ct"
Made President Elects Name Two
Spondees, Which Brought Success.


The mystery of the disappearance Of
the word Thomas from the name
Thomas Woodrow Wilson has at last
been explained. The president elect
was in 1890 a professor at Wesleyan
university. He was In the course OF
an evenings cali upon a fellow pro
fessor discussing the interesting sub
ject of names and their value.
For those who wish 10 achieve any
success in public life," said Professor
Wilson, ''the best kind OF a name is one
that consists of a dactyl and spondee.
For instance, Daniel Webster. The
next best kind OF a name is one con-
sisting of two spondees-Woodrow VII
son, for instance"
Which proves two things-first. in
1890 Woodrow Wilson was ambitious
for a public career; second, Woodrow
Wilson was perfectly willing that ev-
cry one should know II.
The spondaicai and dactylic anecdote
Of the president elect has only now
reached the light OF day. If Wilson
had failed Of election the story would
have died a natural death. But now
everything that tastes Of the memory
Of Wilson's days as professor Of history
and political economy at Wesleyan is
brought into the limelight.

FOOD ON SCIENTIFIC LINES.
Mans Provender May Hereafter Be In
Form of Tasteless Powder.

How soon mankind's food will be
limited to a tasteless powder Is the
question which scientists are endeavor-
ing to answer. The problem is due to
NJ Effront. the distinguished Belgian
chemist. who not being content with
having manufactured substitute for
meat, composed Of the refuse food OBJ
tanned from hotels, etc. has turned his
attention to the utilization of the nour
lshing elements which form the basis
Of hay and forage.
NJ. Effront's argument Is that 1t is
unnecessary that sheep and cattle
should transform these into the com
plex product butchers meat, which Is
only Of putritive use to man after 1t
has beth digested and split up into its
simple constituents.
Accordingly the investigator hopes to
replaGe these animals by composing a
chemical food from the simple elements
Of pssturage. The composite food has
alresdy been discovered. but whether
1t IL palatable has not yet been made
public. At any rate. NJ Effront conf

PARISIANS MOB THE REFEREE.
When Scottish Rugby Team Beat
French Trouble Starts.

For the first time in France a foot
ball riot occurred recently. 1t was at
the Pare des Princes, Paris, after a
Scottish Rugby team had defeated n
French team by a score of 21 to 3.
The mob broke down the barriers
and assailed the referee, J. w. Baxter,
with sticks and stones. 1t required the
united efforts of the players, police and
mounted officers to break up the dis
turbance and rescue the official.
On returning to Paris large crowd
OF the spectators of the game paraded
the boulevards, shouting "a bas lie ref
eree" Afterward they made a dem
onstration in front of the offices of a
sporting newspaper.
