A Talk with a Man Who Writes Stories by the Yard , Ilollfflon find niooil and Turned Out from tlio Batno Shop Hew It Vnjrs. A well dressed , full boarded gentleman , with the fair round belly of nn nldormnn and the self satisfied carriage of n tnnti of the world , catno down from the Morcnn- tile library yesterday afternoon , says The Cincinnati Enquirer , hcsitntcd n mo ment tit the foot of the outer stops nnd then took his way down Walnut street to Fourth. At the corner ho WAS accosted by a brother craftsman , atthough in a different branch of the business , IIo was a writer of stories ; the latter was n reporter. "llow'a trade ? " said ho , in answer to a question. "Oh , BO , BO ; about as usual. Just enough to keep the pot boiling. But I can't complain to-day. 1 jiavo n couple of pretty fair orders in my pockota. " Ho plunged his right hand into the inner pocknt on the loft side of his coat and drew out n bulky leather memoran dum book , from which ho took a couple of loiters , which ho handed to the re porter. The first road : "New YORK , Deo. 15,1883. Mr. , Cincinnati Dear sir : Please forward nt once a rhymed humorous story of about forty four-lino stanzas , which from the tenth stanza onward shall advertise Blank's lialsamio bitters. Wo want something , of course , which will hold the reader's attention to the end , The arti cle is designed for use in the rural press , and perhaps u country topic would bo belt. Lot tin have this inside of ton days. ' 'Payment to bo at the rate of 5 cents per line , as usual , subject to approval of MS. Sincerely yours , The other letter contained seven small pictures , ouch as may bo found in the ordinary Sunday-school book , and wet dated at Boston , Its uubjcct-raattor was as follows : - "Within please find seven cuts , whicL wo want you to embody in a book for boyt from 9 to 112 years of ago. Don't ' lot youi manuscript exceed twenty-live thousand words. "Wo rely on you for something bright , with considerable snap nnd fire in it , ac well as an absorbing plot the first consideration sidoration , of course , to bo sound roligl ous teaching. "Wo want to issue this book by Fob. las the intention is to make it thofourtl volume of "Tho Good Boys' Sunday Book series. Respectfully , etc. "P. S. In case wp sell more than twc thousand copies nf this within fourmonthi after publication wo will remit you t bonus of $50 in addition to the origina payment of $100. Now lot us have youi bosk work. " The gentleman smiled slightly as ho replaced placed the letters in his pocket. "Those religious publishers are up U all the dodges"said lie. "You must noi for a minute imagine that there is an ] possibility of jny receiving the $50 addi tionally promised in that postscript. ] have no access to the man's books , and it consequence can not prove whether hi soils two or twenty thousand copies o my work in the first four months. " "I thought your work was mainly it the line of sensational stories' ! " "So it is. But popular prejudice i killing off the blood-and-thundor papers and the old field is not what it onoo was | Why , I have , soon the time when a son sectional story paper would pay men a much as Harper's Monthly , and accep every line that T wrote. " ' 'How much does Harper'n pay ? " "Ton dollars a thousand words fo average manuscript. When I got $4 i thousand now I am satisfied. The Century tury , St. Nicholas , The Youth's Gompan ion , Wide Awake , Peterson's Magazine The Continent , Tb New York Wookl ; and other eastern publications pay fror 80 to $10 a thousand words , cash on ac ccptanco of manuscript. Of course th minor journals pay loss than this , but so\ oral of the daily newspapers give the fin named sum regularly for special inattoi "Asa rule , the religious press is th very worst pay in the business. It nc only pays the smallest sum , but th money comes straggling in to the write very often nix months after the public ? tiou of the matter paid for. Take thi lost order as an instance , " and ho tappe his pocket wherein the letters had boo replaced. "It calls for a 25,000 wor story for $100 ; this is at the rate of1 thousand. The story must not only I something simple enough for a O.year-ol boy , but it must bo bright , crisp , racy , < absorbing interest , and above all tliiiif elsu , it must point n inorral. But this : not all , It must bo so written that tli seven pictures which came with the ord < may bo printed in the book , apparent ! as though they had boon designed to i the manuscript , instead of vice versa ; i a word , the story must bo about thoa seven pictures , us vrell as being a roa < able religious juvonlie. I will eund o the manuscript for tliis book in probabl two weeks. When do you think I wi got my payment for it1 ? ' "That is the idea , exactly. Bofoi Nasby took charge of The Toledo Blac he did literary hack work , and woul tuni out a moral story or a Sunday-scho hymn in the morning , and in the aftoi noon would write a blood-curdling artic for some live shoot , with more oxclaime and blankoty blanks in it than Br < LLarto ever put into Col.

If y < will take the trouble to look over a cut loguo of the half-dime novels that ha' taken the place of the old yellow-backi Boadlo's books , you will land his nan there also ; his latest story of this cla being called 'Hagar , the Witch,1 11 Hove. "Most of the 'Aunt Fannys' and t ! 'Uncle Johns's who have charge of tl children's columns in the religious pape write blood-and-thundor stories - - quite often aa these of nny other clasa. fact , thu very morning I nmilod a coup of articles to dilforont publishers. 01 titlml 'Tho Pornicioua Inlluonco of Exc ing Talcs , ' and the other 'Tho Rlad-Ilou Murder.1" " 1 suppose the competition of ornate Btory-writurs hurts your business mo thnn nnythini ; olso'l" The professional chuckled to himsoU "You do , oh' " said ho. "Well , I dor mind tolling you that tlo aiuatuor ttor writ or hurts nobody but himself and l ! editor who has to wade through hUslua Ho ia u , p. Ho doctn't rucognir.a t ! fact that this business needs to bo Irani like any other. Jlo uxpeota his first ute to bo printed , when , as a matter of fai a innn ought to bo satisfied if lie c print an article nftnr five years' trying. The order for advertising verses whi 1 thawed you iiut belongs to a now clt f worL in my liuo which t expect > \ presently roach the dimensions of a boom It will not bo very long before the first writers of this country will soil their pens to advertisers , Just now more attention in the newspapers and other adsto spnco and style of typo used ; but 1 BOO indications that before long the the matter itself will receive first atten tion. The idoiis being worked by some houses now who publish n few lines of interesting matter with a taking hooding , ahead of their ads. j but their ventures arc only the pioncpr/i. / You mark my words , the advertising columns of your newspapers will presently bn filled with storicn and poems from the first pens in this and other countries , which will hold the reader's attention to the end , and si ill bo ndvortiBomontfl. " "Do you think then that Alfred Ten nyson would write an advertisement for n clothing house ? " " 1 do. Ho sold Homo verses on'Spring' to an eastern juvenile publication last month , not because ho cared for the jour nal at all , but merely because they do- Hired the versos as an advertisement and were willing to pay him a still" price for them. Why , ono of our Cincinnati neap manufacturers has the first artists in this country at work turning but picture advertisements for him , and artists as n class arc ( [ iiito as proud as literary men , When the time comes the now departure will put money into the pockets an well of the advertisers as the writers. The vanes that I am to write will cost the advertiser ? 8. The spi.co which they are to fill will cost him nonio thousand * of dollars. If that space were filled witli an ordinary prose advertisement in nine t mos out of ton it would bo passed by , whpro now it will bo read in the same ratio. 1 must make the verses readable , or they will not bo paid for.

Isaac Madd waa n man aged thirty-ono years , highly respected citizen of Middlotown nnd a son of Andrew Maddy , an equall well-known and esteemed gentleman , an a nephew of Mr. James Maddy , of thi sity.About About oloyon moriths ago Mr. Madd became alllicted with a cancer on hi breast , and ho has boon teoublod with i ever since. About five months ago , however over , ho began to turn dark , until , ineid of thrco months , ho became as dark as negro , and , indeed , would not have boo luspoctod of being a white man save b these who know his history and family the purity of the latter being so wo known as to preclude all possibility ( natural causes.

Iloforo his death , however , ho was ser for by a prominent phynlcian in this citj who had seen him and who suspicionod very rare and mysterious malady , know to medical science generally throug medical reports only , and in the present of a few noted physicians ho was examii ed and his cose made the subject of dii cussion through prominent media works , when his disease was pronoum cd Addison's disease , from Dr. Addisoi of Guy's hospital , London , who discovo edit. This disease , according to the Suydei ham Lexicon of Medicine and the Allic Sciences , the latest and best authoril upon the subject , is a tubercular intiltr , tion of the supra-renal bodies ( which 1 just above the kidneys ) , usually chara tori/.od by discoloration or bronzing < the akin and progressive asthenia , whic is ultimately fatal , first described by D Addisou in 1855. The connection between the disease the adrenals and the discoloration of tl stein and the fatal asthenia is as yet profound mystery to the medical frato nity , as so few cases have ever bee known that n practical knowledge almost unobtainable.
