THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 1890. ID I NEWSPAPERS: SOME FACTS ABOUT THEM OVER 2,000 DAILIES IN UNITED STATES, THE Pennsylvania Leads tho List of 8tates in tho Number of Its Folded Multiples of Thought, and New York Comes Second Somo Note worthy Peculiarities in the Dis tribution of tho Press. From the New Yolk Hun. There are In the Unltml states about 2.U0 dully nowsimpprs the word "about" Is used In that connection In view of the fact that the able and persistent statistician who collect jmwspaper tlBurcs are not always to be relied upon, nl least, their IlKUies are not beyond the round-number limit. However, they nto nenr enough for the purposes of this article. It might be naturally and pardonably Inferred that New Voik h'ads this list, but it docs not. Pennsylvania having 196 dallies to m In New Yotli. Illinois comes next with 160, Ohio fourth, with 163, Indiana fifth, with 150, and Cali fornia sixth, with 112, and no other state has as hlcli as 100. The last in the strlnsr are the District of Columbia and AVyomlng, with 4 each. It may be noted.ns a sort of a sooth, that Mass achusetts, the educational center of Hie universe, with 81. Is llrst among those out of the hundred chins. PECULIAltlTlKS. A ctudy of the dally newspapei us herein set forth may be of Interest as showing the character and enterprise of tho people of a country. It also t-hows a few peculiarities, nnd prove- that reasoning by analogy doesn't al ways come out according to rule. Tor Instance. It might be supposed that If a elty of 13,000 people, ns Is tSuthrle, 'ilnhoma, had two morning papers, lty ten times that size ought to have enty morning papers, whereas. It not "nly does not, but It must crow to be larger than any city In the United States except New York city, when, with thlrtv mornlnc miners. Is elchteen to the cood of Chicago and Phlladel- phla, with n dozen each. It might also be inferred that It a city of 13,000 people had no evening paper, as Guthrie has, ! then towns of that size do not support evening papers, whereas every town of that size In the country, and mnr.y considerably less, have evening papers, unless they are practically suburbs of large cities. Therefore, the facts knock the analogy rule galley-west, so to say. And yet It would seem that as small towns can and do support dally news papers, the large cities ought to make a better showing In the same direc tion, though It may be allowed that the extra cost of the dallies In the large cities enables them to make It possible for the dailies to exist In the smaller towns, the bulk of the news In such papers being confined to the less expensive local matter. There are very few If any towns In this country of sufllclent size to support u dally paper which are not near enough to a Inrge city to receive the dallies on tha day of Issue, nnd all the small towns sub'crlhe liberally to the city dallies, thus enabllnc locni editors to save expensive telegraph tolls, und make their papers Interesting by pub lishing such local news in detail as tho city papers do not have. IN THK HlO CITIKS. Of the cities of the Imltcd States, New York city heads the list with 55 dallies, 31 morning and 21 evening, which includes a number of stock, law nnd other class papci which are not really newspapers. Of these all of the morning and 13 of the evening pupers are published in the borough of .Man hattan. This number for a population of about 3,700,000 Is smaller In pro portion than that of other large cities, for Chicago, with l.SOO.000 and Phila delphia with 1,200.000, have 27 and 20 dallies each. And here appears an other peculiarity, to wit, tho prevalence of the evening paper. New York hai 7 more morning than evening papers, and Philadelphia 4 more, while Chi cago has 7 more evening than morn ins papers. In other words, Chicago has 7 less evening papers than New York with Its much larger population, and 7 more than Philadelphia. Why this should be so is not altogether clear, for it is generally understood that the Chlcagneso are fond of amuse ments and gadding about, while the Phllndelphlans are noted as home bodies, and It Is a Known fact that tho people who stav home of nlirht i jikc tneir evening papers. Among New York dallies are 3 Italian, 1 French, ! German, 2 Pohemlan, 1 Arable and 3 Hebrew, or more dallies In foreign lan guages than any othei city In tho fnlon except Chicago nnd Philadel phia, has of nil kinds; and the snni' number. IS, that San Francisco lias. By the way, Chicago, uith 7 German papers, makes a better ccmparatlvo howlng than New York .loei. She has 11 dallies In foreign languages. 7 Ger man, 2 Bohemian, 1 Polish nnd 1 Scan dinavian, which is more than any oth er except San Francirco, which has C, 3 Italian, 2 German end 1 Japinese, having In this last regard n acoop on all other cities, oven polyglot New York, not being up to that Japanese starftard. VTIOS TO POPULATION. While no regular ratio of naner in population exlKts In towns which have but one paper or even two evening papers. It seems that a morning paper nnd tin, evening paper do not estab lish themselves In a town until it has ut least 25,000 people. But tills does r,ot mean that a city of 50,000 people will have twice that many, for Ilgures bhow that It is hard sledding In most cltks of 50,00(1 to carry two mornlnff DISHES WASHED HH2 i i i i t i Gold Dust does It Morninc, i noon and night.

Brooklyn Is the largest city without a morning paper. Its million or so peo ple having only evening homo papers, and only live of them. Jersey City, with a couple of hundred thousand people, more of less, has only two evening papers nnd no morning, but these cities are too close to New York to worry over a home-made paper ev ery morning. As a rule, the newer the town Is, the l"e more westerly it is, tno more news papers It Is supposed to have, but the rule doesn't work, for Seattle and Tacoma, with 50,000 population each, have only a morning and evening pa- per apiece, while Mobile, Ala., with 135,000, has one morning and two even ing, and Portland, Me., with 37,000, has two morning and three evening. Port land, Ore., with a claimed population of a hundred thousand, has only two morning and two evening papers, not an good a showing as her much smaller Kastern namesake. Denver which Is about the size of Indianapolis, say l2.",0OO. has the same number of morning papers, four, but its half dozen evening papers are double the number the Hoosler capital can sup port. New Haven, with only about 1)0,000 population and three morning and five evening papers, shows that Yale has had an Influence to the In crease of the reading public. All New York papers also have a large support In that town. Newark, N. J., Is tho only city whose entire morning out put Is German, and It has two papers In that language, with two English evening; it Is only nine miles from New York and it has a population of a quarter of a million. OTHEIt COMPARISONS. Buffalo, N. Y., with less than 300,000, has eleven papers, seven of them even ing, which give It a better showing than Boston, with seven evening pa pers to a half million people. Richmond, Va., Is a morning paper town, having four and only one evening to a popu lation of 85,000. Kansas City, Mo., nnd Cleveland, O., which had double tha population of Kansas City at the Inst census, run neck and neck with five evening papers, nnd Cleveland, with four morning, leads the Missouri town by one. Allegheny, Pa., has one paper, evening, to over a hundred thousand people, but Its supply comes from PlttPburg, which, with a quarter of a million people, has eight morning nnd two evening papers, just what Wash ington city has with six times ns many people and no other kind but represen tative people either, barring about 80,000 colored people.

If Chlcngo, with Its 1,800,000 people, had newspapers In the ratio that Pros cott, Ariz., has, that Is, a morning and an evening paper to its 1,800 people, or one to each 000, It would have 2,000 newspapers, an excess that would mako even Chicago think she had enough.

D., Secretary of American Society of Religious Education. CONTUXT. After the Interview with Nlcodemus, Jesus and Hl dlsclplei made a circuit In Judeu, round about Jcrusuloiu, preaching and baptizing. (John, ill 22.) At the same time John the Uaptlst was nt Knon, engaged In his usual pursuit, seeking to win men to righteousness. There thus sprang up certnln questions', because the two hud nequlred extended reputation and men desired to know their relation to each other. These question gave the Baptist occasion to bear testimony to Jesus anil explain his own mission as one of preparation for Hlin. Hut a Ut ile later the Pharisees began to quib ble on the question of his popularity (verse J) und about the sumo time Ilerod cast John Into prison. (Mat thew, Iv, 12.) These two clrcumstunces showed that opposition to the gospel had been nwakened and that It was destined to develop Into persecution. Hence Jesus determined to retlro from Judea and return to Gallllee, passing through Samaria, which lay between. (Verso 4.) I-OCAMTY.-The sun had reached the meridian, the sixth hour us the Jews computed time, when Jeeus und Ills disciples npproacheu a little city of Sycluir or Khechem (verse C), situ ated In the tinnow valley between Mount Kbal nnd Mount Gerlzlm. The place was one of historic Interest. There Abram halted as ho came out or llaran. (Genesis, xll, fi.) After the conquest it was made a city of refuge. (Joshua, xx, 7.) Not far distant was a parcel of ground which Jacob gave to Joseph (Gent-sin, xlvlll, 22), where that patriarch had sunk n well, which still remained, although seventeen cen turies had passed away. In Kastern countries, where water Is scarce, a well is highly prized, and the owners gen erally plant trees or build booths near by und erect a wall so that one may rest from the heat. Jesiw halted and sat down under tho shade thus fur nished, being weary, while Ills disciples went away to the little city to buy food. (Verse 0.) The Journey had been per formed on foot and this proved an ac ceptable resting place. REFRESHMENT. Shortly a Samar itan woman, a resident of Sychnr, drew near. She came for water to be borno away home. (Verse 7.) This was deemed to be proper service for women In those days. The customs had not materially changed since Itebekah, tho future bride of Isaac, came out with her pitcher to draw water, while tho servant of Abraham oat by the well In Mesopotamia (Genesis, xxiv, 17), neurly nineteen hundred years before. Nor was there any danger In exposing wo men to the casual meeting of stran gers. The simplicity of life and tho speedy execution of penalty upon of fenders were In themselves sulllcient protection. Accordingly there appears to have been neither surprise nor tlmiu ity when the woman arrived at the well nnd found Jesus there. With much gentleness and fredom He asked her for a drink. The secret of the request was that as the well was deep and He had no way of drawing the water He saw In her the only method of obtain ing refreshment. What could be more acceptable to the weary than a drink of water. (Matthew, x, 42.) . SURPIUSE. This request of Jesus astonished the woman. She took Him for a Jew, and such Ho was In all out ward appearance. Whereas, she was n Samaritan, one of a class greatly de W.

A very puzzling young person Is at present exercising the curiosity of Pa risians. She Is known to fame as Mile. Llna. Till recently she was an artl3t's model. Then Colonel de Rochus and M. Jules Hols discovered her strange capabilities, and Mile. Llna has since passed much of her time In hypnotic trances, a ntnte In which she performs wonders thut must be seen to be be lieved. Her sponsors, It will be well to remark, are men of high standing and acknowledged reputation, and not pro fessional organizers of rare shows. Col onel de Roehns Is at the head of the Ecole Polytechnlque, a government In stitution, anu one of the foremost edu cational establishments in France. M. Jules Hols Is among the most talented of tho young school of French'hypnot lsm and kindred subjects. Presented under these auspices. Mile, Llna cannot bo dismissed as a vulgar Impostor. Her pretensions at any rate deserve to be looked Into. They are wonderful enough. Mile. Llna, for In stance, is tho best subject Colonel de Rochas has so far come across for de monstrating tho phenomenon he terms the "exteriorization of sensibility." When In a tranco her sensibility leaves her body and can bo localized by tho operator In any object he desires with in a few feet of her. .. this object be pricked or otherwise manipulated, Mile. Llna experiences exactly the same sen sation as if the act had been performed on her own person, whereas her body while she Is In this state Is wholly In senfllble. It may bo objected that this sort of thing might be feigned. Col onel do Rochas, however, vouches for several cases In which deception would seem to be out of tho question. On one occasion, for example, the sensibility of Mile. Llna had been transferred to a photographic plate. Various experi ments were mude. and then the sub ject wns brought back, as It wa thought, .to her normal condition. Af ter the lapse of u considerable time Mile. Llna was suddenly seized with shivering, and then with violent sick ness. It was found that simultaneous ly with the appearance of these sym toms M. Euer, to whom the photo graphic plato belonged, hart Immensed It, unknown to the rest of the company, and In a dark room In a dlstnnt corner of the house, in a chemical bath, und was developing It In the usual way a process which had ufllleted Mllo. Llna 'With a sort of sea sickness. In another curious set of experiments music played on Important part. It was found that when a piano wan played within heurlng of Mile. Llna while she was under tho hypnotic In fluence she adopted attitudes sultRble spised oy the Jews. When the ten tribes were carried away captive Into Assyria people were bfought back and mingled with the poor of Samaria who were left behind, producing a low mon grel race. (II Kings, xvll. 21. l Where as, the Jews of our Lord's time were the posterity of those who returned from Ilabylon under Cyrus (Ezra, I, 3), nnd who brought with them the Insti tutions of their ancient religion. They regarded themselves superior In blood and character and would not penult their northern neighbors to nsslst thein In building the second temple. (Ezra, Iv, 3.) That feeling was perpetuated, so that no Intercourse that might de file Mas allowed between Jews and Sa maritans. (Verso Si.) Hence the wo man was surprised when Jesus asked for water. How Is It that He has broken over this prejudice? She did not hesitate to nsk Him the question plainly nnd bluntl.s. PROPOSAL,. There was an excellent opportunity for a protracted and per haps heated nisctisslon concerning the relations subsisting between the two people. Rut Jesus dismissed nil that und adroitly Introduced himself n8 a lUifllclent explanation of His conduct. (Verse 10.) He told her that she would not have raised the question; on the contrary, she would have been tho Becker If she had known who He wns, implying that she ..ad needs greater than Ills which He could and which He would gladly supply. In doing this He called himself "the gift of God," after tho manner of His conversation with Nlcodemus. (John, ill, lu.) That which ho proposed to give her upon request He called "living water," seeking to bring the truth to the level of her con ceptions. The expression was, how ever, highly appropriate and Scriptur al. (Isaiah, xll, 3.) It May be that He hoped to recall to her mind certain prophetic utterances (Jeremiah, II, IS), for the Samaritans were not wholly Ignorant of the word of God. (Kackn rlah, xlv, 1.) Figures of speech are al ways preferable in ucallng with those of limited cultivation. (Psalm, lxxvlli,2.) PERPLEXITY. The expression, liv ing water, used by Jesus, had a spiri tual meaning which the woman failed to grasp. It had another every day meaning which wuo intelligible to her, signifying springing or spring water, us opposed to standing water. (Genesis xxvl, 19.) This kind of water was sup posed to possess curative properties and It was ordered In certain ceremo nials. (Leviticus, xlv, C.) The Sama ritan naturally put this construction upon the Saviour's remark, thinking that He proposed to give her water from the very depth of the well, as they were springing clear and fresh from the earth beneath. At this she was perplexed, (Verses 11 and 12.) Tho patriarch Jacob had caused this well to be dug and he was satisfied to drink from It as the people had been elnce his time. Resides, the well wns very deep, and the sources could not be easily reached. Jesus had nothing with which to draw. How would lie make good Ills offer? Was He so gieat that He could do what the patriarch had not done, what none after him did? It was a strange proposal, and she itld not hesitate to express her per plexity. TEACHING. Everything now turn ed on the meaning of a single word as descriptive of the kind of water which to the music played. In every case the attitudes were so strikingly beautiful and npposlte as to excite tho admira tion of the operatic artists nnd painters who had been Invited to witness the ex periments. Here, again, the suspicion might arise of deception, though there Is no reason to believe that Mile. Llna has ever had any musical or dramatic training. Hut direct proof has been forthcoming of the genuineness of the phenomena. A Polish musical com poser who witnessed eomo of tho ex periments asked to be allowed to apply a test that would satisfy hlni thnt Mile. Llna was not merely going through a performance rehearsed beforehand. What he did was to play a Polish coun try dance that has fallen even In Po land Into almost entire oblivion. To his nstonlshmont Mile. Llna went through the dance exactly a It ought to bo performed, though It wns utterly CATARRH KILLS mnr rjmn!

There are several modes of definition by deriva tion, usage, etc. Like a good teacher our Lord explained H'ts term by de scribing the water and distinguishing It. (Verses lit nnd 14.) The water from Jncob's well wus Indeed good thoro wns no Intended objection to It, but It relieved thirst only for the time being. One must return again and again to obtain fresh supply. Where as, the water which Jesus offered would entirely quench thlist. because It would remain within, and become there a well of water (John vll. 38). springing up within the soul us this liquid does nt the bottom of Jacob's well. Fur thermore, this springing up would con tinue and produce everlasting lite. It will be seen that Jesus was still em ploying figurative language somewhat n He did on another occasion. (John, vl, S,").) He was endeavoring by means of familiar material things to lead His pupil to the conception of those Im mense truths that pertain to the spiri tual life In both worlds. REQUEST. It Is evident that this teaching was not successful. The wo man did not understand, and our Savi our did not lodge In her mind the ele vated thoughts which were needful to bring her Into right relations with Him. She still supposed that He ie ferred to some kind of beverage which might be obtained without the labor of drawing, whicn might be substituted for the water of Jacob's well. (Verse 15.) Sho was particularly pleased with tho suggestion tiiut she might be re lieved of all further effort, and that she might have a perennial fountain with in. Her desires were awakened nnd she boldly asked for the bestowal of the proffered gift. This shows how eager the human mind Is to obtain temporal und physical comforts, how slow It Is to apprehend and to seek the soul's highest good! (Matthew, vl. 31.) This condition Is th more deplorable because the less Is Included In the greater, and there Is a promise that they who eek the spiritual shall not lack the carnal. (Pslams lxxxlv, 11.) The latter being thrown In ns a gra tuity. (Matthew, vl. 33.) CONCLUSION. It Is a pity that the lesson committee closes our study at this point. What follows to the twenty-sixth verse shows the outcome of the Interview and sets everything to rights. On hearing the woman's re quest Jesus directed her to call her husband. (Verse 16.) Her reply en abled Him to disclose her bad life, and light began to break into her mind (verse 19), ns she perceived that Jesus was a prophet. She was then prepared to speak on the subject of religion, and In the course of the conversation she was Informed that Jesus was the Mes siah. (Verse 20.) That statement, supported by the evidence of Ills su perior knowledge, converted ner Into a messenger, and, leaving her water pot, she hastened Into the city to Invite neighbors and friends to tnrlst. As a result many Samaritans came and be lieved. The fragment which has been assigned for our lesson Is, therefore, valuable chiefly to show the patience and skill with which Jesus dealt with a sinful woman, leading her on step by step from what she knew toward what she did not know, and waiting until her mind was open to receive the great doctrine of Ilia Messlnhshlp. Little by little the light breaks In. (Isaiah, xxvlli, 10.) Impossible that she could have learned the proper gestures and measure. Such are a few of tho facts: as to their explanation, that I must leave to Colonel de Rochas or M. Jules Hols. When Love Is Young.
