question which n mrics of ovoiitu lmvo
brought to tho front In Washington.
Plrat, n utuuhor of tho ancient ntul
proper Hcmitont thought tho nownpapor
moil hurt no right to send out accounts
of tho proceedings of tho nonato In ax
ocutlvo session, ami tlioy hail mi invostl
gntion which cost a good deal of money
anil resulted In a fltio old furco. Thou
thoro camo up tho Clovolaiul-Dnnn
oplHOilo in Now York, which all tho
nowspapor moil and publlo men of Wash
ington took tho keenest sort of interest
in, Finally, tho press gallory commit
too, composed of newspaper men and
elected by nowspnpor nion, concluded to
dlaciplino a young correspondent who
hud inndo tho mlstako of sending out n
brutal dispatch about tho habits of a
distinguished statesman. Porhnpa noth
ing would lmvo boon thought or Raid of
HiIh incident but for tlio peculiar clr
cuuiRtauceH Ritrrouudtng it Tho rcouo
wtw laid nt tho funeral of Sonator Deck
in tho pcuato cluimhor.
Acconllng to thodlnpatoh thoHtakw
man in (nietlon, who was a mombor of
tho funeral cotnmitteo on tho part of tho
hoiiBo, fitnggurod into tho ohambor, foil
Into a wont, wvt thero in a dazod condi
tion, otjiggorod out of tho chamber when
tho coromonloa wore concluded, foil in
passing down tho Htopa, and fell again at
tho railway station in attempting to
board tho tralu. TIiIh would havo boon
brutal oven if true, but it wua falw.
Wlillo tho oommlttoo of nowHjiapor nion
in chargo of tlio proas gallery do not fool
called upon to piuw judgment on tho
truth or falsity of news Bent out by gen
tlemen who enjoy tho privileges of tho
gallery, nor to act iw pram censora in any
sort of wny, thoy havo felt it their duty
to inform tho publlo that tho corps of
corroso:idonta, of whom thoy aro tlio
oQlcial ropronontatlvo8, do not indorso
nowspapor inviwlon of private life.
Hero wo lmvo tho best of miswom to
tho queutiou and conclusive proof that
tlioro Ih ruoU n thing an nownpapor cthlca.
Jounialisin is n distinct profession, aa is
tho profession of law or medlclno. It
ought to havo its unwritton codo of
morals and practice. Its members are
brought into intimnto relationship with
Individuals daily .In connection with
important matters, and often with mat
ters of delicacy as affootlng reputation
nnd iwaco of mind. Tlio relationship
which a lawyor boars to his client, or a
doctor to his patient, is no moro inti
tnato or important than that which a
journalist bears to tho man whom ho in
terviews or of whom ho writes. If thero
nro codes of othlcs for tho lawyer and
doctor, thero Bhould bo similar codes for
tho journalist. Tlio journalist should
know tho morals of his profession, tho
tunouitios of his business, should always
fool his responsibility nnd nppreclato tho
dignity of his jiosltiou in tho social
fabric. Thoro is such a codo in journal
ism, nn unwritten codo as all laws of
professional ethics must necessarily bo,
but as yet it is indcAnitonnd not well
enough understood.
Hero in Washington, howovor, whoro
journalism is nt its highest state of devel
opment In America, and that means in tho
world, I nm happy to say that tho ethics of
tho profession, this unwritten law, is con
stantly Iwcoining lietter understood, nnd
year nftor year is hotter respected. It is
not enough that a Washington journalist
must bo a gentleman, as journalists every
where should bo ho must lmvo a boiiro
of honor that is keen and vigilant, not
simply as a matter of policy, but of tem
perament ami training. Tlio days of
bushwhacking journalism, of "fako"
journalism, of oxtremo partisan and per
sonal journalism, and abovo all of men
dacious 'journalism, aro at an end in
tho Capitol City. And being nt an end
hero means simply that thoy nro rapidly
coming to an end tho country over, for.
Washington journalism is a reflex of the
journalism of tho nation. It draws its
inspiration nnd its men from tlio prov
inces, nnd needs, moreover, constant re
nowal of tho energy that comes from tho
rami press and tho men that press has
graduated into tho widor field.
Journalism as soon at Washington has
Its ethics, but I do not feel competent to
tell what that codo of othlcs is. Prob
ably no two working nowspaper men
would describe it nliko. But thero aro
certain cardinal features of it known to
us nil, and of thoso wo may speak. One
of thoso was violated by tlio young man
who is just now feeling tho discipline of
his follows. Tho privnto lives of mon
nnd womon nro taboood subjects in tho
newspaper practico of tho capital. If
this were not so, and wo all felt our
selves licensed as freo lances, thousands
of hearts would acho. Probably thoro is
sc pisco in tlio country whero tho pri
vate lives of well known persons offer
such shining marks for criticism and ox
itoeitiou as hero. I can count at a mo
ment's notico at least a scoro of members
of congress who live in a certain senso
doublo lives mon who havo both wives
and mistresses.
If wo woro to tell what wo know nnd
make it a business to ilnd out tho things
which wo now only suspect, plenty of
gray heads now held high would bo hum
bled. Even womon of the fairest fiuno
would suffer. Luckily these aro not le
gitimate subjects of newspaper writing.
Tlio press is constantly growing moro
just and moro generous. It knows how
to shut its eyes as well na to keep them
opon. I doubt if in our timo anothor
publio man moot thofntoof poor Riddle
bergor. That senator was anything but
a drunkard, Ho was simply a drinking
man who occasionally lost his head.
When intoxicated ho was ugly and will
ful. Thero aro a dozen men in congress
today who havu tho saino fault, but the
press donls forbenringly with them. Had
it boon mora lenient with Uiddloborgor
ho might havo mot a moro happy fate.
But ho was picturosquo. Tho press soized
upon Ids first escapado, painted it in
lurid colors, gavo him n reputation which
nt that timo ho did not deserve, nnd ho
fell under tho weight of obloquy thus
thrust upon him. Being given tho name
ho went in for tho gamo and flnnlly died
of chagrin and a brokon heart.
Nowspaper men at Washington, as
clsowhoro, must keep confidences. This
is ono of tho unwritten Iiiwh which N
woll understood and almost universally
respected. Publlo men aro not afraid
to trust tho writers. For instnnco, I
called ono recent evening on the spenkcr
of tho house. Conversation aroso inci
dentally about Bomo publio men and
measures, and tho Bpeakor talked very
frankly, as ls his wont. Ho criticised
mon of his own party in his characteris
tic Bavngo fashion nnd without reserve
Ho mnrto no request that this conversa
tion bo considered a private ono ho in
stinctively know that it was privnto nnd
would not bo printed or repented. I
could havo created a mild Rort of sensa
tion by reporting what tho speaker said,
but of courso I did not. This brings us
to anothor phasoof modem nowBpapor
othlcs. A mau must know thnt ho is
being interviewed for publication. Tho
gontloman of tho modem press docs not
got his lutorviowB clandestinely.
All conversations not understood from
tho circumstances or by express agree
ment to bo for tyio aro private It is in
applying this rulo that ono of tho chief
sources of troublo arises. Tho nowsjiajier
man is often puzzled to know what was
intended for publication nnd what was
not. That was tho bone of contention in
tho Clovelnnd nrtlclo in Now York city.
It is often tlio Ixmo of contention in less
oelobrated cases. I am proud to say for
tho correspondents of Washington that
tho publio men hero ilnd little causo of
complaint in this regard. Tho political
journalist, as a rulo, not only roflticcts
coofldonco nnd is intrinsically honornblo,
but ho exorcises lino discretion in win
nowing tho proper and printablo from
ttio private.
Eavesdropping is also tabooed. Tho
self respecting journalist of thoso times
will not hldo himself away in closets, or
gluo his oar to koyholcs. Rnro stories
aro told of tho mannor in which big
nows lias boon obtained by theso moans,
but most of theso tales aro of tho old
days. Tho good Bonntors thought tlio
Washington correspondents must havo
Botno such means of securing oxecutivo
session secrets, but thoy woro ogrogious
ly mistaken. Tlio modem journalist will
not eavesdrop, but ho will deceive llo
will not opon anothor man's lottor, but
ho will play a trick upon tlio other man
if tlio mau does not watch out.
This matter of nowspaper otliics is
sotnotimcs very intricate nnd difficult to
understand. Tho publio may not bo ablo
to understand why a journalist, who
would condoinn listening nt tho koy liolo
of a committoo room door, could hiro an
employe of tlio government printing of
.ffco to steal a copy of tho president's
messngo for him, but I can understand
that, though I am not going to try to ex
plain it. I would not listen nt a koy
nolo, but I would bribo a printer to steal
a inossago for mo, providing tlio racssgo
was worth it and tho printer did not como
too high. Journalists havo gono out of
tho business of stealing president's mes
sages, but thoy aro Btill eagor for tariff
bills. Tho publio is already familiar
with tho manner in which tho McKinloy
tariff bill found its way prematurely to
tho press.
A Pacific coast correspondent borrowed
tho copy of a member of tlio ways and
moans committoo to write a paragraph
from, nnd copied tho wholo bill with n
forco of six typewriters. That, in my
my judgment, was fair journalism. So
was tho schemo set up by a couplo of
bright correspondents to get an advanco
copy of tho aiills tariff bill when tho
publio mind was filled with curiosity
concerning that measure Thoy knew
Mr. Mills had a copy of tho bill from tho
printing olllco, nnd thnt therefore tlio
bill was iu typo. Their plan was to tolo
phono tlio foreman of tho printing offlco
about S o'clock in tho afternoon by tho
Capitol telophono that Mr. Mifls wanted
a dozen more copies of tho bill sent to
his houso at 8 o'clock thnt evening.
When tho messenger arrived at Mr.
Mills' rcsidonco with tho pnekago of
bills ono of tho conspirators was to bo in
hiding near tho door. IIo was to havo a
small packago in his hand. Tho con
spirators thought that when tho mes
senger rang tho door bell and tho servant
camo and oponod tho door thero would
bo a fino opportunity to do business. Tho
mnn in waiting was to rush up just as
tho messenger loft, ring tlio boll again,
and when tho servant camo to tho door
tho second timo, no doubt with tho pack
ago in her hand, the conspirator was to
hold out his littlo packago and exclaim:
"I havo loft you tho wrong packago.
This is tho ono thatbclong8toMr.Mill8,',
and grabbing tho bundlo from tho ser
vant's hands bent a hasty retreat, aa if
trying to ovortako tho wagon, which by
this timo would bo rolling down tho
street. In tho packago which tho con
spirator was to leave in exchaugo for tho
aero precious ono was to bo somo bills
and reports, which Mr. Mills, oven if ho
woro in tho houso nnd looked them over,
would not bo suspicious of, as, of course,
ho hod not expected any copies of tho
tariff bill and would not bo suspicious of
trickery. Tho printing ofllco would bo
satisfied tlmt it liftd dono its duty, and
next morning two enterprising journals
would contain Uio Mills tariff bill in full,
telegraphed by their ugilo correspond
ents. Tlio schemo did not work, for tho
simplo reason that tho printing ofilco
could not print tho bills, nnd heuco could
not deliver them into tho hands of tho
unsuspecting servant girl. It was a
pretty plan, and I am sorry it did not
work, for it was good journalism. The
truo journalist will not look iu another
man's desk for tho biggest piece of nows
in tho world, nny moro than p military
commander will violate a flag of truco,
but yonr good journalist will lead his
enemy Into otnbush when ho can.

AN INFANT IN CUSTODY.
Why Pretty Littlo fictile Itudd Is m
Prlnonor.
Nolllo Itudd Is 0 years old, and n pretty,
innocent littlo child, yot sho Is an inmate
of tho Will county jail, at Jollot, Ills., nnd
must remain In custody of tho sheriff for
somo timo to come. A trial is pending for
hor possession iwtwccn hor mother, Kato
Nelson, nnd hor foster parents, Mr. nnd
Mrs. Itudd. Nolllo was born in tho poor
house Throo months nftor that event Miss
Nolson signed tho baby over to Mr. Van
XKLMK ItUDI).
Amlnle, superintendent of a Chicago
foundlings' home. IIo in turn transferred
his charge to tho Ruilils, who havo raised It
thus far nnd havo grown much attached to
thowlnsomo littlo thing. Nelllo's father
recently died and loft $1,600 to tho mother
for tho liencllt of tho child. Miss Nelson's
first move was to abduct Nolllo.
The foster parents with officers followed
tlio woman in niilrvum. Miminn tr IWnlrnnn
nnd Utlcn nnd back to the poor house,
wnoro uio cnuu was rccovcrcxl. Tlio claim
nnts then sought tho courts. Nolllo lay
ndmti Iti Mm. liiiflfPn nrm. wYinti f1inn.u4
ordered her into tho possession of tho sheriff
penning mo miu. wnon a deputy sliertu
took Uio child In his arms to carry It to tho
Jail residence both women burst Into tear.
Tho foster parents failed to get an order of
court when thoy adopted Uio cliild, relying
on tlio papers signed by both tho real
motlier nnd Superintendent Von Arsdale
IlaMe "Hoodooed" by Itaixirter.
"noodoo" Is a word that Is generally
thought to havo its origin In tho African
term "voudoo." At any rate, no mntter
what its genesis, tho expression implies tlio
iiossMwIon of malefic powors. A hoodoo is
llko ono endowod with tlio evil oyo what
ever attracts his attention meets disaster.
Tho latest phnso of tho hoodoo business
has to do with nowspajicr reporters, moro
particularly tlioso pencil experts living In
Cincinnati. Tho superintendent of the
zoological garden nt that place, Mr.
Stephen by name, recently asserted in ur
ambiguous lauguago that tho reporters
killed babies. IIo rccovcrcxl his listeners
from their shock of surprlso and horror by
tho supplemental statement that tlio
babies were not human, nnd that tho jour
nalistic method was ono of indirection.
Then ho continued:
A soon an any of our young animals get writ
ten up they tlio. Look at our glralTo. And when
tho grizzly boars wcro born wo said not a word
about them In public. Ono wo left with his
mother and Uio other I took and began to ratio
on a bottle.
Ono day ono of tho nowspapor men camo out
and saw tho grizzly baby getting Ita botUo. no
wrote It up at longth and tho littlo thing couldn't
stand IU It died at onco. And so when wo havo
moro babies out hero wo will keep them under
cover until thoy get big onough to stand tho hoo
doo of nowspaper publicity.
A riiynlcliwi' Estlmnto of Quinine,
Dr. William B. Clarke of Indianapolis,
I nd., woll known nn an alienist and author
ity on all matters relatlvo to insanity, re
cently prepared a paper which ho entitled
"A Study of Suicide" Ono paragraph In
tho articlo cannot fall to bo of gonoral in
terest. It Is this:
I foci confident that a frequent causo of sulcldo
has been gunorally, If not entirely, overlooked,
and so am Impelled to utter a word of warning
regarding it, viz., tho reckless uso of qulnlno,
especially Its uso unauthorized by a physician.
Any ono who knows tho pathogenetic ability of
qulnlno, or rather Its ability to causo symptoms
or perturbations in tho well or nearly well portion,
especially brain and norvo symptoms, cannot
deny that It possesses tho power to produce a con
dition nearly allied to insanity, If, indeed, It prac
tically falls at all Bhort of insanity. In largo
donas It U a doprcssant, instead of a stimulant,
contrary to tho popular belief, and It is tho most
tiopuUur and universal ovory day amateur remedy.
Everybody dooms to tako It, and for any and
every ailment. It Is reasonably cosy of proof
thnt many Insanities, suicides and murders can
bo traced directly to ttio ill advlsod and Inordi
nate uso of qulnlno.
