Michael Flaherty, chairman of the Pittsburg delegation, will direct the anti'Parks fight on the floor of the convention. The injection of Parka and his in- fluence has BO shaped affairs that the New York delegate is an issue as di- rectly opposed to the Buchanan regime and it has been decided to light it out on that lino by again attempting the re-election of Buchanan. At the caucus of Buchanan men It was figured that the presidont could count on 43 votes.

Tho most surprising thing in the his- tory of the title page la the fact that It was utterly unknown until a few years after the Invention ol? printing. In the dnys beforo that great era, when nil books were In manuscript, no scribe ever thought of prefacing his work with a separate page or leaf doveted to tho title. When printing took the place of writ- ing, changes enmo gradually. In many early printed books thoro was still scope for handwork. Initial letters were left for tho \rubrisher aa ho waa called, to decorate and Illuminate by hand. As books multiplied, this practice, of course, soon died out Occasionally wealthy and luxurious book owners would employ a BkUlful illuminator to ndorn tho pages and margins of a print- ed book Just aa in former days manu- scripts bad been illuminated. Tho manuscript practice of surround- ing the text with an ornamental border was also often applied to early printed books. The Introduction of the title page showed tho name mingling of old and new. Printing was Invented about 1450, but no title page, properly so called, is known befonp|H70. In tho earliest ex- amples the title Is either, as in manu- scripts, given In the first two or. three lines of the first page, to be immedi- ately followed by the printed text, or Is simply, as It has been called, a la- bel—that Is, It consists of a very brief title at tbe top of a blank page. There was one curious exception. A \Kalendnr\ printed by Rntdolt at Yen- lee In 1470 has a full title page In the modern stjle. Tills remarkable page consists of nn Introductory poem sur- rounded on three sides by omamentul- bordere, with, nt the bottom, the place 'of prfnting and date^—\Venetils 1470\ —and the names of the printers. But this Is quite an exceptional In- stance. Such a title page Is hardly found again for twenty yenrs and did not become common till about 1520, more than forfygrears later; * \ A particularly noticeable feature In many title pages of the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries Is the length of the descriptive titles. Con- troversial pamphlets and books of trav^ el and adventure especially have titled which are extraordinarily long winded! The whole page Is filled with small type, giving an analysis of tbe contents of book or pamphlet Then toward the end of the seven- teenth century and through its suc- cessor came the reign of the. bold and plain title page, and the plain title has lasted until thp Dresent dor. OTTuershtp of Stngre \Bnatneii.\ One of the peculiar things about a copyrighted play is that any little piece of business or any new lines which may be inserted in. the manuscript while a stock company Is playing the drama belong thereafter to the man who owns the copyright Every time a stock company rents n play for production from the owner of the copyright it is cut, Interlined and added to before it Is producgd. A stage manager, for instance, may interpolate some speeches ia order to work- up to the Introduction of a song or specialty, or he may strengthen the climax by putting In some new-and strong lines. Often these Interpolated lines prove to be the most striking in the play and make decided hits. If they are left in when the manuscript goes back to its owner, they, become his property ab- solutely and may not be used by the man who wrote them in any other pro- duction; therefore shrewd managers, before they return a play to its owner, always take great pains to erase every scrap of correction or Interlineation. In this way only may they keep what really LpIOngs to them.—Chicago Trib- une. in Persia., and : 4»: JaJ# 'pi&& about the size of ia.paby^ fllPbte7&re used, providing t^faraSs* ftj&eftt?\v:aste of thne.

The human heart is practically a force pump about six inches in length and four Inches in diameter; It beats 70 times per minute* 4,200 times per hour,'100.8QO times per day and 36,- 702,000 times per year and 2,575,440,- 000 times in seventy years, -which is \man's appointed threescore years and ten.\ At eae— of these beats-it forces 2V6 ounces of blood through the sys- tem, 175 ounces per niinute, 05O% pounds por hoar or 7©3 tons per day. AH the blood in the 'body, which is about thirty pounds, pnsaes through the heart every three minutes. This little organ pumps every day what is equal to lifting 122 tcmsono foot high or ono ton 122 feet.bSgh—that is, ono ton to tho top of a forty yard mill chimney or sixteen persons' seven score each to tho same height Dur- ing tho seventy years of a man's life this marvelous little pump, without a Blngle moment's rest, night or day, dtecJXargos the enormous quantity of 178,850 tons of blood.
