COUNTY PAPERS FORCED TO CLOSE Rising Tide of Costs and Print famine Spell End. BOSTON. Nov. 17.—1n an article on “Newspaper Mortality” the Boston News Bureau In a current Issue, says: “The narrow margin of profit which exists In the newspaper business botween publishing cost and selling price has been wiped out in a very large number of cases by the steady upward march of contract prices for newsprint. Many publications are now retailing on the streets for very nearly the cost of the blank paper on which they are printed. “Naturally this rising tide has eaugrt and drowned many publishers who were cot strong enough either to climb above It by raising their price* or to k<*ep 1 themselves afioat on the earnings of more profitable years in the past. "The magnitude of this flood tide and the number of its victims Is indicated by the decline In registrations of sec- • ond-class publications with the Postoffics Department. “Decrease from previous fiscal year. 1919, 1,158; 1818, 1,183; 1917, 81. “These, of course, are not figures.' that Is, they do not measure the number of publications which wert out of bus!t ess without offsetting It with the new; publications registered for the first time. “The full measure of discontinuation : -of established publications is contatned In the figures of Messrs. Ayers & Son ] of Philadelphia. Their compilations show the following suspensions, net listings and net losses for the three years: "Publications suspended—l9l9, ■ 1.889; 1918, 1854; 1817, 1,(589. New publications listed—l9l9, 1,042; 1913. 773; 1917. 1.043. Net loss—l9l9. 646; 1818. 1,173. 1917, 616. “Only a few of the largest metropolitan dallies have their own print mills, only the largest publications—relatively few In number—contract direct with producing companies for the supplies at the published contract prices. “The greater number of publications get their newsprint through Jobbers and middlemen, and some of them do not even have contracts. These are the con- j turners whose need drives them to paj the “spot" prices for newsprint—some- : times as high as 12 and 15 cents a pound. A few years ago newsprint sold nndei S cents a pound. “The passing of the country newspaper will mean the loss of a unique American molder of public opinion, as well as the loss of one of the thing* which helps to keep the worker on the soli. When country newspapers go out of business, tne exodus from the farm, It Is feared, will reach even larger proportions.”

FAMOUS CAFE IN JAPAN ‘DRIED UP’ Becomes Tearoom During Sunday School Meeting. TOKIO (by mall) —The greet desert of America has cast Its shadow far across the Pacific Ocean In the sake-laden land of old Japan, penetrating clear Into the capital city of Nippon, In Toklo, there Is a spot where the Cocktail glass and the Kirin beer bottle are personae non grata. But a scant few nights ago there were few places In Toklo where the wine glass and the whisk-sods were handled with •neb dexterity as In the bar-room of the Imperial Theater. The beautiful oak bar on the second floor of the handsome white brick b>nldliig, said to be a copy of the Opera of Paris, was a place where the well-known man-about-town In Toklo might be found most any night. Ak-san. the barkeep, had mlx'-d drinks In America, he knew the knack of It and he boasted of his ability to please the taste of the keenest connoisseur of Toklo’s capital. Os a sudden came the fire of the b'g convention hall, where 1,000 delegates to the World Sunday School Convention, many of them from dry America, were about to begin their meetings. TheD came the hurry and scurry at the Imperial Theater In the domain of Ak-sau, the barkevp. Cognac bottles, private stock far down in the right hand corner of the bar, whisky, gins-they all were bundled together in pretty wicker baskets. The bar was cleared of the alcoholic properties and a sign was painted which read: “Tea, mineral water and cakes served here.” Needless to say, Ak-san. In high rag, left for a ten-day vacation. His mixing duties for a time were over. The Sunday school delegates came in hundred*. The beauties of the Imperial Theater were commented upon, long talks were made In which the evils of drink came In for their share of attention. One noon a regular visitor at the theater (trapped In for noonday tiffin. "A whisky and soda,” he suggi-sted to the waiter, i It was the thrill of the whole ten days I to the boy-san whose dut es had under- i gone a change end bis life had settled : Into a quiet, peaceful, sake-free existence. ■ On Oct. 16, one day after -he couven- ' lion crowds froir America had gone, the ! •emporary desert made In Toklo out of | -e*pect to the delegates to the Eighth j Bnndsy School Convention was wet • gain. The crew of "mixers." headed by Ak-san, returned, cleared away the empty mineral water bottles, ihe deserted teapots and started life all over again. KOKOMO MAN SENTENCED. KOKOMO, Ind., Nov.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.. Nor. 17.—The thrills in an ordinary William 8 Hart movie scenario pale into Insignificance before the real thrillers that have been reported to the police during the past few weeks. Hip pocket motions seem to be the order of the day. Early one Sunday morning a young man reported a weird tale of a shooting affray. He said he was crossing a lot near the Lincoln Institute, when a man to his left sod denly “rls” up from the weeds and began shooting. The young man dropped to the ground and played ostrich. The shots from the left were answered by shots from the right of him The antagonists emptied their revolver* at one another and the yonng man heard them us they whistled overhead. He remained a little while after they got through with their miniature Verdun battle and tben hastened home. Later In the week persona living on Clark avenue were aroused from their sleep by the roar of a shotgun. Two shots rang out Into the clear night and then everything was quiet To sdd to the general hubbub, a crazy woman was reported to be stalking the streets with an ugly looking revolver In her hand, evidently in the quest of a victim. Even grown folk are afraid to go out In the dark.
