j The Linotype s Birthday j I
a———
The Mergenthaler linotype, that won
derful machine which put this article intc
type foe printing was 21 years old last
week. If newspaper men and printers
were not too busy to do anything but
work, they might have celebrated the day
as a great holiday, with thanksgivings
and burnt offerings and libations; for
without this machine the newspaper of
today could not exist.
The linotype was not born, Mlnerva
llke, from any Jovian brow, but as it
stands today is the product of the minds
of the many master mechanics who have
added Improvement after Improvement,
until the perfections and the perversities
of the machine make it seem a body of
metal endowed with a human heart and
brain.
The idea upon which the linotype was
perfected Was, however, the conception of
Ottmar Mergenthaler, whose name the
machine bears, and whose heirs collect
a royalty of $50 upon every machine sold.
This idea took shape in 1883, the first
Mergenthaler machine was built in 1886,
and the second one later in the same year.
Machines of the type of the second model
were used in many newspaper and job
printing offices, but there was yet some
thing lacking. In 1890 the shortcomings
of the older machines were recognized and
Mr. Mergenthaler perfected and patented
a machine which embodied all the essen
tial principles of the linotype of today.
That patent was granted on April 8, 1890,
and therefore the linotype is 21 years old
today—old enough to vote.
The difference between the machines of
1886 and the machine of 1890 was so radi
cal that the real reign of the Mergen
thaler may be said to date from the intro
duction of the latter t'’pe. Since that time
it is true that thousands of improvements
have been patented and applied to the
machine, but none of them has radically
interfered with the principle of the pat
ent of 1890. Perhaps other improvements
will yet be made—certainly some Inventive
genius ought to devise a system of bal
ancing the casting lever so that every
operator would not hang a tin bucket of
type metal “pigs” on the lever of even
the newest machine in the chop. But that
is a bit of technique.
The real reason why the linotype leaped
into universal favor as soon as it was
perfected in 1890 was that It was the first
practical machine to offer a substitute for
the slow and laborious process of setting
type by hand. Scores of Inventors had
tried for years, with more or less suc
cess, to construct a typesetting machine.
The reason Mergenthaler succeeded where
so many had failed was that he discard
ed the idea bf setting type and substituted
for it the Idea of casting type, a line at
a time.
HIb first machine was fitted with a num
ber of vertical, moveable bars, Into each
of which was cut the dies of all the let
ters of the alphabet, small letters and
capitals, the figures, characters and other
signs used In printing. By touching a key
on a keyboard, like that of a typewriter,
the bars would fall until the die corres
ponding with the letter on the keyboard
presented Itself exactly before the orifice
of a mould connected with a pot of molten
type metal. When a whole line of letters
had been assembled in this fashion the
metal was Injected Into the mould and a
line of type was cast—thus the name line
o’ type, linotype. The second machine of
1885 was constructed on the theory that
the long dle-bars were too cumbersome.
It had an independent matrix, or die, for
each letter or figure. These were forced
down through upright slots into the cast
ing box by currents of compressed air.
The machine was practicable, but It was
liable to get out of order and It did not
meet with universal approval. About 200
machines of this kind were built. .
The machine of 1830 obviated these de
fects by permitting the matrices to fall
by force of gravity from an inclined mag
azine. Mr. Mergenthaler also materially
improved the mechanism of the distribu
tion of the used matrices after the cast
ing of a line of type. The product of the
Invention of 1890 incorporated, as has been
said, every essential feature of the ma
chine as built today.
After the first machine of 1885 was con
structed a company was formed to make
anu sell the linotypes. This company was
bought out for $300,000 by a syndicate, of
newspaper publishers composed of White
law Reid, of the New York Tribune,
Walter N. Haldeman, of the Louisville
Courier-Journal Victor Lawson and M. E.
Stone, of the Chicago News, Harry Smith,
of the Chicago Inter-Ocean, W. H. Rand,
of the Rand-McNally company, and Stll
aon Hutchins, of the Washington Post.
The first machine to be used commer
cially was set up In the office of the New
York Tribune. In 1888 Mr. Mergenthaler
and the company suspended relations, and
the factory of the company was moved
to Brooklyn, Mr. Mergenthaler remaining
in Baltimore. The wedge-shaped justlfler,
a device Introduced In the second Mergen
thaler machine to "justify" the lines of
matrices (that Is to make them fill the
line by spreading the spaces between the
words) became the subject of litigation
and for years there was a quarrel In the
courts about a thousand and one details
now happily forgotten. In the «• nd all the
disputes were settled by purchase, and
when the perfected machine of 189# came
out arrangements were made by which
the company and the Inventor shared In
the profits.
The profits were soon to be very large,
for when the practical machine was pro
duced almost every newspaper wanted It
at once. For several years the factories
were behind -on orders and the linotypes
were to be had only for cash f. *. b.
While the litigation over the patents was
pending, Mr. Mergenthaler Invented an
other kind of justlfler, but It was aband
oned when the settlement was made.
The first machine of the 1890 type—the
modem and perfected linotype—was used
In the office of the Brooklyn Standard
Union. the next In the offlce of the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. The Brooklyn
Standard-Union also was the first news
paper to use the linotype with union la
bor. The Typographical union at first was
inclined to oppose the Introduction of the
machines, but its men soon bowed to the
Inevitable and hustled out of the dusty al
leys of the old hand-set composing rooms
to learn to operate the machines.
With the Introduction of the linotype and
the transfer of the newspaper print shop
from the realm of the handicrafts to the
dominion of machinery, It was said that
romance would die out of the printers'
trade. Of course It wasn’t the death of
romance that the printers’ union objected
to: It was the substitution of one machine
with one man for eight men. But as tha
newspapers, being assisted by the discov
ery of cheap processes for making spruco
wood pulp paper, at once expanded so that
the composing room now employes nearly
as many men as In the old hand-set days,
and at better wages, the union’s fears
were soon at rest.
The printers know, and the editors who
work with them know, that the Mergen
thaler has added to, rather than detracted
from, the glory of their Jobs. The man
wh8 sits at the keyboard of a linotype Is
by compulsion of necessity more stead
fast, more sober and more Industrious
than his prototype at the case in the hand
set days. It takes a man to run a lino
type. There Is a Joy in the rattle and
click of the composing room, a delight In
the odor of the hot metal, a thrill In the
whir of the motors that never had ltscoun.
ternart In the good old days. No man who
has once known the spell of the linotype
ever can escape its Influence.
The perfections of the Merganthaler
have been lauded In a dozen tongues, Its
shortcoming have been apologized for In a
thousand editorials, but no one but the
men who work with this machine have
any notion of how god-llke are Its virtues,
how human Its faults. In the old days a
tramp printer occasionally would fall from
the water wagon just when he was most
needed, but never was there man so per
verse as a linotype on a spree. All over
the country there are hundreds of well
behaved linotypes that never strayed from
the narrow path of virtue, that are model
machines, that never have stayed out
nights and that don’t know the first rules
of poker—but there isn’t a one of them
that isn’t waiting quietly and patiently for
that time when the whole shop depends
upon It to get out the paper and the ma
chinist Is out to lunch. When that time
comes, even the best and noblest linotype
will go on a spree. They a«e machines,
but they are printers.
The man In whose brain this machine
was conceived was Ottmar Mergenthaler.
He was born In Wurttemberg In 1854, was
brought up In the clock-making trade, and
came to the United States In 1872. His Idea
for the linotype was originated In 1883, the
first machine was built and patented In
1885, and the perfected principle was ap
plied, as has been said, In the machine
patented 21 years ago today. Mr. Mer
genthaler died at his home in Baltimore In
1899.
The linotype has revolutionised the busi
ness of printing and thereby has made a
new era In journalism. Without this ma
chine the huge newspapers of today, with
their wide variety of matter designed to
please the fancy of a wide variety of read
ers, would be utterly impossible.
Landscape Gardening
I*rederlck J. Haskln In Sioux City Tribune.
Landscape gardening as a profession is
one of the newer callings in America, but
during the past decade it has progressed
faster than any other. In communities
where the appearance of the landscape
has never before been considered, beauti
ful picturesque effects will be achieved
during the coming summer. After an
American business man has acquired a
comfortable competence his mind natur
ally turns towards securing beautiful en
vironments for himself. The American
landscape gardener Is prepared to meet
these demands, so that all who are able to
employ high skill In out-of-door art. can
And plenty of their own countrymen com
petent to produce the required effects.
America now rivals Europe both In the
number and beauty of Its large landed es
tates.
The competent landscape gardener must
be both a scientist and an artist. He must
have a scientific education enabling him
quickly to determine the chemical compo
sition of soil, the relative heat, and cold
of a locality from Its exposure lo the sun,
as well as the climatic conditions required
for the growth of the various trees, plants
and shrubbery. Then, in addition to pos
sessing the eye of an artist, he Bhould
have the ingenuity of an Inventor for he
must be ever ready to suggest original de
signs in compliance with some idea, per
haps absolutely Incongruous, of his em
ployer.
The work of a skilled landscape gardener
may be felt In its practical commercial
value In a year or two. A progressive real
estate firm In a New England village two
years ago employed a landscape gardener
to improve the appearance of three blocks
of ground for the site of several apartment
houses. The situation was carefully stud
ied. a practical plan laid C3it in which
certain hardy trees and shrubs were suit
ably placed. Proper attention was given
to tin parking and some plain, comfort
able apartment houses were erected. Al
though these were much less expensive
and elaborate In their construction than
other houses in adjoining squares they
were Immediately tuken at much higher
rent, the rental value In a single apart
ment averaging from $15 lo $30 a month
higher, all because of the attractive sur
roundings.
The value of the landscape gardener's
work is being recognized by the municipal
authorities and In consequence the present
season Is showing more active results
along this line. Skelton, la., appropriated
$10,000 lo be utilized this spring by a newly
appointed landscape gardener to provide
the proper embellishment of three open
squares which have been neglected eye
sores In the town for years. This Is the
beginning of a movement towards secur
ing a larger public park. The landscape
gardener In every city should affiliate
with the local Improvement erganlzatlons
and endeavor to unify the efforts In town
beautifying already under way,
In the high schools In many of the cities
landscape gardening forms a supplemen
tary part of the manual training course.
Illustrated lectures are given on the
growth of different trees and shrubs
showing the result of properly applied ef
forts. In the rural high schools, which
are becoming so numerous, especially In
the middle west, landscape gardening Is
taught In a practical manner. The Unit
ed States department of agriculture is aid
ing In this work, nnd this year Is putting
forth a greater effort than usual. While
even 10 years ago a landscape gardener of
any ambition felt obliged to go to Europe
to secure his education, quite as good facil
ities for studying this profession in his
own land are now being provided. The
best Ideas of Europe have been brought
to America and have been enlarged and
improved by the versatility of ths Ameri
can workman.
The result of landscape gardening is be
coming so widespread that within the next
quarter of a century Europeans will visit
the United States as much for the beauty
of the Scenery as for other reasons. This
year, miles of beauty will be created from
what nas been squalor and ugliness.
Every large manufacturing interest Is be
coming keenly alive to the need of beau
tifying their grounds. The great railroads
are employing landscape gardeners to re
move unsightly landmarks and make each
mile beautiful to the traveler. In railroad
gardening the planting of trees Is an Im
portant matter. Large trees serve as storm
breaks and are most effective In protect
ing the tracks. The Northwestern rail
roads are cultivating hundreds of acres of
trees which are being transplanted as rap
idly as possible along their tracks. As
these grow in size they will lessen the
destructive powers of the wind and shield
the roads from the heaviest snow falls
In this way their utilitarian value In la
bor saving becomes an economic feature
In addition to this, the long miles of tree
lesh prairies, which have been so monoto
nous to the traveler across the continent
will be greatly varied, for scientific skill
will fairly produce trees where they have
fsver grown before.
Louisiana produced more than half
the rice grown In the United State*
laat year.

j NO MYSTERIES TO BURNS.]
Detective Bums In McClure'*.
The finding of writers of anonymous
letters Illustrates only a little of what
I mean when I say there a»e no mys
teries. I don't care what the case may
be. every criminal leaves a track by
which he may be traced.
The criminal understands this after
you get him, though he has made his
plans ever so carefully; but he thinks
that the next time he will not be
caught. "The next time" he will Just
as surely leave a track—of another
kind, penhaps, but a track neverthe
less. It all seems so simple—afterward.
It always seems that the particr.lar
track left might have been avoided.
For example, there was a very Inter
esting feature In the land-frauds cases.
United States Senator Mitchell of Ore
gon was convicted of participation in
tlu.se frauds. Senator Mitchell’s law
partner, Judge Tanner, while being in
terrogated by Mr. Francis J. Honey,
who was at that time assistant to the
United States attorney general, and
who wa» conducting the investigation
before the grand Jury, stated that there
was a partnership agreement, drawt,
up at the time of the formation of th*
partnership between Senator Mitchell
and himself, which contained, a stipula
tion whereby all moneys received by
the Arm for practising before the de
partments at Washington were to go
to Judgo Tanner—It being, of course, a
violation of the federal statutes for
Senator Mitchell to accept money
earned !n this way. Here was the
track—wide, broad, and deep—and yet.
those two clever lawyers entirely over
looked it. Why the necessity of such
a clause? This suggested suspicious
circumstances, and, therefore, led me
to make a close scrutiny of the con
tract, which was produced by Judge
Tanner and was turned over to me by
Mr. Heney.
On investigation, I found a water
mark In the paper, and two misspelled
words in the document; I also noted
that a dark ribbon had been used in
Its typewriting. And how simple, was
the procedure that led to the undoing
of these men! My investigation dis
closed th« fact that this particular
paper had not been manufactured until
1903, while the date of the contract be
tween Senator Mitchell and Judge Tan
ner written on this paper was dated
1901. It was, therefore, a physical Im
possibility for this particular contract
to have been written at the time stated
by them.
Further Investigation disclosed the
fact that Judge Tanner's son was, at
the time of the investigation, acting as
the stenographer of the law Arm.
Therefore it was fair to assume that, I
tills contract was written as a detent-.*,
this young man had done the typewrit
ing. He was Immediately called be
fore the grand Jury. He denied
typewriting a partnership agree
ment between his father and Sen
ator Mitchell. Ho was asked then
and there to write a letter, dictated by
Mr. Heney, In which Mr, Heney used
the two misspelled words found in the
partnership agreement—the word “sal
ary” was spelled “aalery." and the
word "constituent" was spelled “cotv
Btituant." Judge Tanner’s son mis
spelled these two words just as he had,
written them In the partnership agree
ment. When Judge Tanner was con
fronted by this situation, he came Into
open court and confessed to perjury.
Again Interested In the psychology of
such a situation, I asked the Judge:
“How In the world Is it possible that
you walked Into such a trap—men as
learned In the law as you and Senator
Mitchell—especially In view of the fact
of the high place you have held in this
community, having been a Judge on the
.bench and one of the leading attorneys
of the bar?"
He said: “Mr. Burns, that question
Is easily answered: I was not a detec
tive.”
The Victory of Quinine.
From Harper’s Weekly.
In 1832, when the French were con
ducting a campaign of conquest lh Al
geria, the mortality among the troops
and colonists there was frightful.
France was being continually called
upon for fresh levies of men and
youths to supply this terrible loss,
chiefly from fever Incidental to the
climate.
At that time the practice of bleed
ing still prevailed. “Bleed them till,
they are white," was the Injunction
which Brousals, the head physician of
the French, gave to his followers,
when the condition of the soldiers was
reported no him.
At Bone, In one year, out of an ef
fective force of 6.600 men, 1,100 died oi
Illness In the hospital. Most of them
had been “hied to the white."
At this time the effects of sulphate*
of quinine were known, but few phy
sicians ventured to employ It. One
Malllott. had Interested himself in the
new remedy, and, going to Bone In the
medical service of the government, he
resdlved to see If It would not redueo
the frightful mortality, which was one
to every three and one-half men who
entered the hospital.
At first he employed the quinine
merely as an adjunct to the bleeding.
He soon found that bleeding was kill
ing the men, and that quinine was
saving them. Little by little he left
off bleeding, to the great scandal of
the medical profession.
Exactly In preportion as the bleeding
ceased, the deaths In the hospital de
creased. In two years the deaths fell
off from one In three and a half, of all
who entered the hospital, to one in
20, and finally to one In 46.
Maillot, quite naturally enough, be
came an earnest opponent of bleeding;
but he was so actively resisted and.
so ceaselessly vilified, that Ije became
embittered toward his colleagues.
Nearly 30 years passed before Mail
lot saw the complete triumph of his
Ideas. Doctors continued to bleed their
patients heartily for all manner of Ills.
But In 1860 Maillot was made com
mander of the Legion of Honor and
chief of the medical staff of the French
Army, and his influence, with others,
In bringing about a virtual revolution
In the practice of medicine, was fully
recognized.
