The Palladium of this morning came near being a newsless paper. At ten o'clock last night, when in the midst of the work of getting out the morn-' lng issue, the Linotype machine broke down, .here was no way to repair the machine and a paper filled with An. . .. . , "plate was tne preaicament wnicn faced the Palladium news gatherers Through the kindness of J. Bennett Gordon, of the Evening Item, the Item's composing room was turned over to the Palladium and through work done partly in its own office and partly in that of the evening paper, this morning's edition was presented to tho public full of live matter. The demonstration of such good feeling on the part of the Item to the new management of the Palladium Is highly appreciated, and the Palladium hopes at some time in the near future to be able to return the favor.

SUBJECTS FOS STOHY BY VT. WHITE m SATUPJ3AY EVENING POST. WELL KIIOWII IN RICHMCII3 Bowers Once Worked in the Palladium Office Where He Set His , Own Obituary. "Buzby" Bowei-s, better known as ' Bugs", " the tramp or journeyman printer, is again in the public eye, but this time he appears as a character in a story by William Allen White in the Saturday Evening Post. "Bugs" has been living a widely varied, and more or less exciting life since the advent of the Linotype, and now rarely hits a city the size of Richmond, but iu the old days of newspaper work here, lie set many a stick of type for the Palladium. In referring to this old school of printers, the author of the story writes, "And there was Buzby- old Buzby, who went about from office to office leaving his obituary set up by his own hand, conveying the impression that the end 'had at last come to a misspent life." "Bugs," less than three years ago, drifted in to Richmond, and an extra printer befyig needed, hejhqn'gnp the Palladium officei1 Abe his boat in About a month later the old longing to go a little further came Over "Bugs," and he left leaving in type his own obituary, a touching bit of prose and poetry. This was printed with all due reverence for the departed. Last summer, the smiling countenance of old "Bugs" again appeared at the Palladium office, saying that the dead had arisen and was looking for a job. ! There was no place for him, however, and after obtaining permission to "carry the banner" in the store-room that night, he left ami has not been 'seen since in Richmond. In the same story, another "character" which is more, or less well known- in Richmond is mentioned. William Allen v White- says, "Then there was J. N. Free the 'Immortal J. N.' as he called himself, a guant, cadaverous figure in broad hat and linen duster, .with hai'" flowing over his shoulders, who stalked into offices at unseemly hours to "raise the veil" of ignorance and error, and "relieve the pressure," of psychic congestion in a town by turning on it the batteries of his mind." The "Immortal J. N.," so named by those who have known him since the first railroad, and have seen the years pass over him without any perceptible change in his make-up. often comes to Richmond and delivers himself of various and sundry learned discourses on the need of reform or on the need of non-reform, according to his mood. The "Immor al J. N." hns been in the habit of including Richmond in his annual tour, but with the difficulty that he may now experience in obtaining passes, it may be many a day before he is seen here again. Both of these men are of a class which is rapidly disappearing, and which can never be replaced. They saw and knew the newspapers in the olden days, and with their old time methods, they are but the ghosas of the past, and will soon disappear as have their out-of-date systems. CROOK (Continued from Pare 1.) reported the affair to the police, who at once began an. investigation which resulted in Ryan's arrest Saturday afternoon. Ryan sismed all of the forged checks under the name of Charles Peilly. ' ' After being tnke.-i into custody Ryan alias Reilly, frankly admitted to the forgeries and expressed a hope that he would be justly punished He talked freely , of himself and ad mitted that this was not the first time he had worked "bum" notes, but said that his family had always gotten him out of his escapades by putting up the money. "Do you think they will this time?', asked Suoerintendent Baily. Ryan said that he did noA know but there was a possibility of Wch an action. Tie said that he wa21 years of age and after leaving
