REPORTER IS A HISTORIAN No Other la So True, and Few Ar* So Entertaining and So Uaaful. A police reporter, Indeed (or a pen-ny-a-liner, as he Is sometimes, witn too much levity, styled), is the truest historian of his age. And, as no other histories are half so true, so few are nearly so entertaining, or so useful, either, as those which he Indites; there only have we the manners of the time caught "living as they rise” — served up, as it were, piping hot —and human nature naturally delineated; everywhere else it is dressed up, varnished over, Idealized, perhaps, or otherwise sp metamorphosed or mystified as hardly to be recognized for the same thing that one is accustomed to see and have to do with in its orig inal condition of flesh and blood Nay. your penny-a-liner is not the great est of historians merely, but the most penetrating of philosophers, going to the root of the matter, and the most instructive of poets and dramatists, not only “high actions and high pas sions best describing,” but low ones quite as well. All this he is by reason of the matter-of-fact spirit in. which he works. For this is his distinction, that (to the shame of literature it must be confesed) he is the only description of man of letters who is not in some sort, as such, a systematic liar. All other writers set themselves to embellish, elevate, refine truth and Nature — some have gone the length of maintaining that this falsification, this lying. is the very soul and Indispensable, essence of the poetical. In all Its forms; he alone takes down and communicates what he hears and sees simply as he hears and sees ft — "among the faithless, faithful ones he." THIEVES OF PARIS CAUGHI Extraordinary Collection of Stolen Property Found In Their Camp In a Suburb. The Paris police force made a remarkable haul at the suburb of Mon-treuß-sous-Bols. Eighteen men were arrested, and an enormous heterogeneous stock of stolen properly was seized. The seizure was made in a camp of amateurly constructed houses, which was divided between two gangs of thieves and apaches Most of the members belonged to the chief band, commonly known as "Boers,” owing to their houses being 1 known as “Transvaal City.” Inquiries made by the police showed ] that every Sunday morning the inhabitants of “Transvaal City” sold stolen meat at 4d a pound, and organized penny lotteries with prizes such as clocks, stolen watches, bi cycles and stores of preserved groceries. The police seized a quantity of harness, saddlery, bicycles, sewing machines, typewriters, mattresses and bedding, and in a newly plastered ceiling they unearthed jewelry and watches enough to stock two or three Jewelers’ shops. The information on which the police teted was given by a poor woman who bad been kept in bondage by the hleves in order to do their cooking for them. Every one of them could steal with both audacity and cunning, but not one could as much as cook a potato. Latest in Newspaper*. The “animated newspaper” Issued by a French firm for display in mov-ing-picture establishments is said to be the most costly newspaper issued from the standpoint of the subscriber, i as one of these reels costs many dollars. These films are very popular with a certain class of patrons of the “movies.” They are edited in much | the same manner as the typical newspaper. A corps of operators is kept , ready and the editor is in constant ' touch with many sources of news. As ( soon as a promising tip reaches him, ; the editor sends one. two or as many men as he thinks necessary for the ' purpose. Frequently the three films are patched together to make one , complete reel. Correspondents are maintained at different points, and ' these are assigned by telegraph to go to certain points where their services may be needed. Mine explosions and railroad accidents are regarded as particularly attractive features, and men are sent at once to these whenever they are reasonably accessible Pictures of the debris and the work of removal are always objects of Interest to patrons of the “movies.” Catch Smelts by the Wagonload. A great run of smelt is now going up the Sandy river, the first one in about eight years. The little fish are to be seen In a solid column coming from the Columbia river. Hundreds of persons, attracted by the sight, are catching the smelt in i dip nets and buckets and hauling them away by the wagonload. Farmers are coming Ui by the score every day from every direction and from long distances to get. a supply of fish for pickling and smoking. The run probably will last for sev- | oral days, and then the season for the smelt will close until next winter — Troutdale correspondence San Francisco Chronicle. _ Trying to Decide.
