rew Cnrneglo, In which ho dispose.!
of a story which has long been cur

"At Dunrobin, not at Sklbo, his
lato Majesty asked Mr. Carnegie to
tell him about a great banquet giv
en in Mr. Carnegie's honor at Pitts
burgh. Mr. Carnegie mentioned
that Joaquin Miller, tho American
poot, had recited a poem in which

NO TYPESETTING
ON TRADE PAPER
NEW YORK, Nov. 1. For tho
second time i,n the history of the
modern publishing industry, a maga
zine has been published without the
aid of compositors. The experiment
was first mado a week ago by the
Literary Digest, one of the scores of
periodicals forced to suspend type
setting by tho lockout and strike in
tho local printing trade.
Nugcnt's Weekly, a national mag
azine, devoted to the interests of
manufacturers of women's garments,
followed the example of the Liter
ary Digest with the' announcement
that publication would be maintain
ed by tho samo process every week
until the striko is ended.
Tho trade magazine claimed to
have made considerable advances
over Its literary contemporary in
mothods. Tho same process of type
writing and then photographing the
pages was used, but by the use of
a special typewriter the lines were
"Justified" or equaled in length. A
special process was also used in the
electro-engraving, said to bo a meth
od recently patented.

BARRAGE OF BLANKS
ROUTS PRANKERS
"Burglars bowaro!" cried a
volco from tho darkness.
"Boom I Boom! Boom!" roared
an automatic shotgun and a
dozen or moro Hallowe'en
prankcrs out on Conger avneuo 4
last night stayed not upon the
ordor of their going, whilo the
householder who had turned 4
the tables on tho visitors with-
drew tho remainder of tho 4
4 blank loads from his weapon 4
and went chuckling to bed. 4
4 Previous experience had edu- 4
4 cated tho shotgun wlelder as to 4
what to expect, so last night he
prepared heavily loaded blank
4 cartridges and when the ex- 4
4 pected raid developed be laid
down, a barrage which mado 4
up in noise what it lacked in 4
dcadlincss. x
No damage of serious pro-
4 portions was done last' night. 4
Police Chief Wilson said this
morning. One or two "Keep
to the Right" signs were re-
4 moved from their moorings in 4
tho middle of the street, bar-
rlcadcs were formed on some 4
sidewalks .and a few gates and 4
clothes lines were removed.
Ti
Hallowe'en pranks, passing the
prankinsh stage and entering the
realm of criminal offenses, were re
ported to The Herald this afternoon
by Manager Ludden of the Pacific
Telephone &. Telegraph company,
who says a number of telephone
lines on Ninth, TentJ and Eleventh
streets, toward Shtpptngton, were
cut last night, presumably by Hal
lowe'en mischief makers.
As a result, telephone service in
the neighborhood was considerably
hampered today. Linemen were re
pairing the damage this afternoon.
Apparently most of the cutting was
done on the service lines entering
houses. Five phones were reported
disabled and others were believed to
be cut.
An investigation is under way and
if the guilty parties are discovered
it Is probable that criminal actions
will be started against them.
