. The tu ana the Sew Jvarnajist. The managing editor of a large daily newspaper, a fe n days ago,gave a would be contributor permission to prepare a two-column paper on a given topic for his journal. The editor's estimate was that the article could be prepared in one, or at most two days. But the writer declined the task, saying that it would require fix weeks' labor. The difference between the two es timates was the difference between tho old and new journalism. The contributor be longed to the old time when literary com position was thought to be some mighty and mysterious toil, usiDg up the pbos - phorus of i he upper regious of the soul. Iu that ponderous old school of thought it wa3 reckoned that a man's brain would blow up if be applied any sort of high pressure to it, and if a writer spent two hours in steady composition the proper thing was to go to bed and send for a . dector. Fine times the newspapers would have in getting nit if the old notions prevailed to-day I Lighting speed is the "word alike for wiilera, compoBiters and pressman. The . tpecd at which editors and reporters pre pare their matter for the modern news paper would indeed blow na the brain of the old fashioned literary and encyclo pedic person. Mr. Murat Halstead has been writing a column an hour of Dews paper mutter for nearly forty years: and 1 is powers have not failed in the slightest. His .former editorial assistant, the late " F. B. Plimpton, wrote at the same rate. . This is the regular standard speed which all newspaper writers aspire to reach. Some nther American editors have reached it. The local reporter whose work is in fine print can generally prepare a column in an hour and a half to two hours, Re porters are frequently paid by the column in the large cities. The one cent papers often pay no more than $3 a column. At that rate the reporter earns $30 to $25 a week and finds his own material. lie must or he could not get his living. It is not apparent that either the quality .." of newspaper work or the health of the writers goners from this electric speed Many newspaper editors live to be old men, and they are the voungest old boys of their generation. Modern newspaper work is not so encyclopedic as that of the past was, but it is far more readable and contains far more of the lite of the time. Story of a Diamond. ''There's the most beautiful diamond I have ever seen duriog an experience of - thirty years with sparkling gems," said a veteran diamond merchant to a Pbiladel- phia Inquirer man, as be held up-a stone that seemed to live in fire. From every facet radiated brilliant colors, and the hue ' of the stone was that steely blue whicii de- . lights every connoisseur of the precious gems. The diamond did not weigh over six karats, but it was eaiily worth $5000. "That stone has a tragic history," con tinued the man of jewels, as he laid the - diamond to rest amid a nest of snowy cot ton. "It comes from the De Beers mines in south Africa, and was discovered by a coolie employed by the company. His practiced eye saw that the gem was a mar velous one for beauty and color, and a de sire to steal it overcame him. Well, lie did steal it, and to conceal the diamond about his person for the coolies work al most naked in the diamond mines cut a hole in his fl&b under the arm. Bnt the wound did not beal, and the observant eye of the form an saw what was the matter. A few davs after he charged the cooly with having stolen a diamond, but the negro denied it. . ' "When Jack, the foreman, reached lor his sore arm the thief made a dash and ran toward the outskirts of the camp like a deer. The foreman followed Dim, but the fleet-footed negro outstripped him. lie knew that a severe punishment await ed him if captured, and centered all bis efforts on getting away with the stone, whose value would make him rich for life. But Jack was equal to the emergency, and drawing his pistol shot the. cooly though the back just as be was taxing to the bills. His dead body was dragged back into camp, bis arm cut open, aud this beautiful gem in the rongb was taken out Iron the insertion. It's a tragic story, but true as gospel, and only a sample of what bas happened more than a hundred times in the diamond mines of south Africa." A Hbn's Wabjuho. Tlie Dakota City Eagle exhorts the unprepared to . get ready, with the following ttorr : "One day last week the wife of John Proyancha found a soft-shelled egg on which was an illegible inscription, as though stamped from the inside of the shell. The egg by some mishap was broken. A day or two later an egg with a bard shell was ionnd in the same nest. The egg bore the following inscuption in raised letters: "Prepare to die. God will take you. Jesus win come soon." it is no boax and no trick. The letters are perfect, and appear ai though, they bad been at am ted from the inside of the shell. . Young Maid What is the best time to marry ?
