THE OLDEST KNOWN
Some of our old journals of Eu
rope and America might take les
sons from the court journals of
China in being old. Translated it
means Court Gazette and was
founded twelve hundred years ago.
It is said never to have changed its
aame or type, and its editor only
>nce. The “devil” wa9 the first ed
itor and he committed hari-kari in
iess than a week ou account of fail
ure to explain what he meant by
his first leader. Since then all ed
itors have “declined with thanks”
and the printers set up whatever
copy was handed in by mysterious
iod invisible hands in the compos
ing room. Sometimes the paper
would come out 300 editions a day
til different and extras. Then again
it would lie silent and dead lor
many week?, while the emperor
md typo9 “hit the dream pipe” and
-vrote Arabian Night stories.
This is a true account of this fa
mous old journal; at least it must
be true, for it comes from a Shang
iiai correspondent of an English pa-
uer and ihe New York Yaller One.
