DUBLIN, April 29.--Amid the roar
ing flames which threatened to de
stroy the entire city, the troops and
rebels engaged in furious hand to
hand struggle until early yesterday
morning.
The rebels were routed, and it is
estimated that they lost over 100
dead and missing, in the four days
the fighting in the streets has been
in progress.
The military officers are now in
control of the situation, altho the
disorders have not been thoroly quell-
ed.
The rebels seem disheartened at the
failure of their attempt to arouse the
people of Ireland.
The troops extinguished the blaze
while the rebels sniped from the roofs
of nearby buildings.
The general postoffice and the Gus
toms house We're not destroyed.
The work of clearing the city of the
snipers is proceeding systematically.
The troops cornered the rebel force
which was estimated at from two to
ten thousand men, in the heart of
Dublin, and later besieged the post
office in which they had made their
headquarters. The light artillery was
trained on this building, but there
was only slight damage done to it.
Several hundred rebels were re-
ported killed when the artillery lev
eled liberty hall, their former head
quarters, but this report is not con-
firmed.
Disturbances have occurred at Kill
laney, Enniscorthy, Cory, Galocmel
and parts of Galway county, but at
other places calm prevails.
1t is unofficially reported that 300
rebels We're captured when the troops
stormed and captured Stephens Green
whore the rebels had entrenched and
barricaded themselves.
Several women rebels figured in
the early fighting.

THE LINOTYPE MACHINE.

1t may be Of interest to the busy
world to stop for a moment and re-
fleet upon the wonderful changes that
have been made in the newspaper
field in the last 30 years. 1t was
just 30 years ago that the New York
Tribune introduced the Linotype and
set the type for that foremost news
paper.
Thirty years ago just one news
paper used the Linotpe machine.
Today this most valuable machine is
composing type in 33 languages and
is performing great service for
mankind in practically every country
on the earth.
When we consider the slow and te-
dious method of setting type by hand,
one can get an idea Of the rapid
changes going on in this great busy
world. Down in Buenos Aires in the
Argentine Republic, ten Linotype ma
chimes are required to set the type
for the La Prensa. The Salt Lake
Desert News requires IL Lintoypes
machines to do its work. The Wash
ington Star uses 26 Linotype ma
chimes. The Philadelphia Ledger
employs 22 machines, while the Pitts
burg Press uses some 30 of these
machines to do its daily work. In
New York, still larger batteries of
them are used, one paper having 06,
4
est group of these machines in the
world consists of LOG.
The Linotype machine has revolu-
tionized the newspaper work in the
same manner that the steam engine,
the motor car and the airship have
reyolutionized the transportation
business.

IN the interior of Serbia, the tiny
kingdom whose political troubles
with Austria-Hungary were the
first widely advertised "eason for

sented to the chance visitor many
surprises Not the least are those
TO be found in the wedding ceremony.
When | was invited to witness the

During the ceremony the guests
Chatted loudly. pointing here or nod

to attract the attention OF some late

them. The wedding seemed to he a
social festival rather than a religious
rite. Every time there was the
slightest hitch in the proceedings
they laughed aloud. But no one
seemed to mind. The bride and groom
laughed equally as loud as their
guests.
When the ceremony came to an
end the groom faded into the back
ground. The best man stepped into
the spotlight once more, accompany
ing the bride through the church
while she greeted her girl friends
with a resounding kiss, and saluted
the hands OF the elder women.
But when this was over the bride
groom came into his own. Then IL
was that he took his rightful place
beside his wife, and they went out
into the world together.
