Birthday of Great Newspaper Celebrated By a Bitter War.

London's newspaper war, which has been waged with great fury since The Times reduced its price to a penny last month. has attracted the attention of the entire world. Never before has Fleet street witnessed such a con- vu1sion. Claims and counter-clainns as to circulation are being made with all the Vehemence of the Arizona Kicker It is a. war to the death for suprem- acy in the penny newspaper field of the worlds metropolis. The princi- pal combatants are Lord NorthcIiffe's Times and Lord Burnham's Daily Tel egraph- Lady BathuEst's Morning Post is involved tq a lesser extent, for the fair journalist appeals largely to the readers of her own sex, who are faithful and true and not to be won away from their allegiance.

 Fleet street will celebrate today the birthday of one of the combatants, the Daily Telegraph. It was hfty-nine years ago today that the first num- Der of that journal issued from the press. For a. few months the Tele- graph sold for ''tuppence" but the year of its birth had not passed into history when the price was reduced to one penny, or two cents. On this side of the Atlantic the one cent press had made its appearance two decades before. but in England the newspape stamp tax made such a price impos- sible. Tn June of 1855 the tax of one

penny on each copy of a newspaper was abolished, and a. number of cheap papers were founded. They were cheap in every way, however, and most of them soon died. The Daily TeIe- graph was the first London paper to prove that really great Journal could be produced and sold for a pen ny the copy. At first the Telegraph was the target for 1eers and sneers. and it was considered little less than a discrace and g. scandal for anybody of 8 social standing to be caught read ing it. Read it they did, however, and within few years the prejudice against the revolutionary pioneer of British penny Journalism had been forgotten.
 Baron Burnham. the etghty-year- proprietor of the Telegraph, has lived to see the day when not single important newspaper in London sells for more than a penny. The old sIo- gan Of the Telegraph, of Largest Circulation in the World" ceased to be true with the advent of the half penny or one cent press. Lord North cline's Daily Mail, selling at this price, has gained a daily circulation of near ly a million copies, yet 1t has close competitors for supremacy. The half penny newspaper revolution began in

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY PARTY
China

The first step taken by China. in its march toward modern civilization was the treaty of Ten-tsin, which was signed by the Emperor ffty-six years ago today. The heaven-born did not in reality attach his signature to the memorable document. as that was considered beneath his god-hke dig nifty, but entrusted the task to one Keying Elepoo. The Emperor was averse to the treaty, which was wrung from him by force.s and afterward as serted that Keying had acted without the authority of his master. The un- fortunate statesman was condemned to death by suicide, but fear of Eng fish ships and guns caused the Elm peror, after various evasions, to ac- cept the treaty. Under it's terms there was to be freedom of trade, tol- eration of Christianity, and a revised tariff. English ambassadors were to be received at the Chinese court, and the term s1''-Meaning barbarianA was no longer to be applied to Euro peans. The Chinese long opposed the acceptance Of Occidental scivihzatio on, and several rebellions and uprisings had to be suppressed by the Euro pean powers before the Great Dragon finally bowed it's hydra-heads in sub mission. Now that China has at last been awakened. there are many Cau- casian statesmen who fervently wish that the dragon had been. left alone in its age-long sleep.

FATHER BARRETT'S FIRST MASS CELEBRATED IN
 HIS NATAL PARISH
Former Rector of Church of Sacred Heart Breaches Seamon-Ed1-
 flee is Crowded.

Rev. James F. Barrett, nephew Of Rev. James O'Brien of Saybrook, cele- brated his first solemn mass yesterday at Sacred Heart church at 1o:S0 He was assisted by Rev. R. IF. Moore, LHA h.. as arch-priest; Rev. Thomas J. Molloy, deacon; Rev MT. Coleman of Norwich, b-deacon; Rev. MT. Man ming of Hartford, master of ceremon- les; John Ronnelly, thurifer; Francis Adonahan of St. Johns Seminary Brighton and James Mccormick or St. Mary's Seminary, Baltimore Md'' aco1ytes. Those present in the sane tuary were Rev. Matthew Judge, Rev. Thomas Mooney, Rev James C.. O'Brien of Stamford; Rev. Maurice McAuliffe of St. Thomas Seminary Hartford. and Rev. Walter L,yddy of Southington.
 The edifice was filled to its capacity with relatives and friends who had come to join with the young priest in celebrating a joyful event.
 Rev. James SO'Brien of Stamford, for mer pastor of Sacred Heart, deliv- appronriate to the occasion. He oon- graduated the young levite on his sue cess and assured him that all the con gregation shared their joy and glad nesss on such a. gala day to be present at the offering of the young priests
 
 first time the altar of God.
 He told how the young priest, born and brought up in Sthe South End, made his first communion, was con firmed and now the crowning point of his career is reached, namely a priest appointed by God to offer up the holy sacrifice of the mass and to perform spiritual and meritorious acts.
 '-I consider 1t an especial favor to be present and speak about a young man whom I have known from his infancy and who has always been devoted to his calling.
 ''The priest is ordained to carry out the will of God, to offer up sacrifice. to heal the sick, to forgive sins,g to ad- minister the sacraments both to the living and the dying just as Our Lord exercised His powers during His, three years sacred ministry
 At the conclusion, he turned to Father Barrett and told him of his mission, its trials, hardships, joys and sufferings, but exhorted him to bear them patiently just as our Blessed Lord did when He was scourged, re- viled and mocked by the unbelievers. He asked the people to pray that the young priest perform his sacred duties piously and fervently and pray that God shower His choicest benedictions upon him.
 After mass, Father Barrett and Father MoIloy imparted their blessings to all the congregation.
 The singing of the choir under the direction of Mrs. Charles Qgren was excellent.
 Rev. Thomas J. Molloy. who is also a native of the parish. and who was ordained the same time as Father Bar rett, will sing his first solemn mass at the same church next Sunday al 10: so

1898, and soon spread oyer the United Kingdom.
 From its establishment in 1855 un- til 1876 the Daily Telegraph was Lib- eral in politics, but in the latter year it became a Conservative organ. When the Telegraph was launched, the Times had a circulation of a little ov- CT 5o,Oe0, but the Morning Adver- tiser, it's nearest rival, printed lesA than 5000 copies. The Telegraph quickly broke all circulation records. On a day in 1861 Fleet street was astounded because the Telegraph sold IA, 1000 copies in day. By 1877 the Telegraph's average daily sale was nearly a quarter of a million. The Telegraph had no really serious com petition in the penny field until 1881. when the Morning Post, founded in 1772, reduced it's price to a penny The Times, which reduced its price to a penny last month and thus start ed merry war, was founded in 1788, and originally sold for nine cents. A century ago, when a newspaper war tax of eight cents per copy was in effect, the Times sold for fourteen cents. The price remained at six cents from 1861 until Lord North cliffe became the controlling power in Printing House Square.
