THE REPORTER.
Among the sons of men there I»
pone who really knows a great eity
except the man who has been a re
porter In it. He has sounded its
depths. He has come to know the |
house of crime, the house of worship, |
and the house of festival. He is fa
miliar with the church and with the |
nether world. He has seen the great
er and the lesser wheels of adminis |
trative machinery in motion. He has
learned how to reach that supreme po-
tentate, the police sergeant, behind
his desk, and how to unravel and knit
together the varying tales of bystand-
ere. The streets of the city are known
to him, bared in gray morn, when the
vast commissary of a great city is
converging on the markets, thronged
the rising and ebbing tides of
those who go to their work and re
turn from it jostling in the crowded
hours, suddenly empty in mid eve as
the tide sweep strips the estuary of
its water and full again when the the
aters empty, writes Talcott Williams
in the Columbia Quarterly. He knows
the streets of danger full of news, and
the streets of safety full of newspa-
per readers, comfort clogged. He
comes to have an instinct as to the
trail of news, and he discovers, as
perhaps no other man does, how often
the intelligent, the educated, the well
bred, and the advantaged are dull and
hackneyed by a safe life, and how keen
and swift and quick comes to be the
