TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS. Many (irotesque and Ludicrous Oflon Fvuhd In Newspapers. 11- red (i. Xeuiftan in Fsad-ueah, Ken tucky' Evening Sun.) (Jrotesque unt! laugh provoking ? what i*s funnier than a typographical ?*rr??r in a newspaper? Some of the finest jokes extant come (through the fact Hint the printer's fingers slip. I'MMlly these mistakes or ''breaks" are funny a long, long time after ward?never at the time. For in stance, several years ago a newspaper was threatened with suit because an article was printed about a. prima donna being engaged as a screen star to aet In the movies. A typographical error made the heading road, "Scream Star Was Once Singer.'' To he sure, then* was considerable excitement in rlu? editor's sanctum before the vo t"<!i.sf eoufd be pacified- And yet. no "iic detests the sight of an> error more i!i:m the e<litor'himself. If some one rould invent or suggest a way for for ever doing away, with mistakes?could make infialliblo the columns of a news p.ijM'i- tbt' public itself would probably feel (imstrained to give that individ ual a loving cup and every communi ty would feel like namiiig streets in !.i ? honor. Suppose your nanje i* Haske. V\??uld you not feel <a bit jieeved should V" i find in a hK-al paper tliat an ''It" ?oi inadvertently placed it?self where an Jf' ought to be? You would cer tainly not 1m? able to extract as much niiiiNement from such an incident as >? iir neighbors; but your position ?uuld be no more embarrassing than that <>f . an American who lurid -been ot a tour around the world and found hims'lf much annoyed with a reporter who had written "Ills numerous f'.'rnds are surprised that, he Is un Iiiinsed !" He sped to the newspnp<?r "?ffiee and in his fury could hare, j nabbed tJie ulotriclxnis editor by his wooiv hair, but learned that the of- i fryider wa? the txji?j)osiU)r. who, In iiiji the rej)ort lwd omitted the ( :'er 'V" bus substituting the word, unhanged" for "unchanged,'' which, reporter had written. Only re-' "??ntly a somewhat, elaborated personal' tel'ing of a .young lady's visit and de parture said "she made many fiends while hero." the fact tlwit flu ?"r" fulled in the personal noun gives the sentence an entirely differ ent meaning than that Intended. A Buffalo imper, in describing the scene when Roosevelt took the oath of office as president, said it was a spectacle never to be forgotten when Roosevelt before the chief justice of the supreme court and a few witness es, took his simple bath?meaning oath, of course. Hut ]>erhaps the most unfortunate error (appearing re cently protruded itself from the col umns of a Bridgeport Connecticut newspaper last Angnst, in yie descrip tion of a wedding. It read "The bride carried an arm lnuiquet of ipunk roses.'* "Pink" was the word intend ed. but it seems the gods ar<* j>owor lesss in the lirinds of the printer. Klse, h<iw can one account for a display line in an advertisement rending, "We shot the entire family." when "shoe" is more -profitable and healthful? l/csw tnigic, but nearly as emlwirrass ing was the experience of a rej>orter who had been assigned to 'Vovcr" the outdoor end of a fashionable church wedding. He described the throng of uninvited guests that had clustered about the awning in hope of fining a glimi>se of -the bridal pair a<* they emerged from the church to enter a waiting automobile, and he recorded the result in the following words: "The comely bride was quickly sweipt from sight by the eager groom." Rut the pitiless tyj>e set it forth thus: "The homely bride was quickly swept from sight by the eager groom." One's sympathy for the reporter Is lessened, however, by the fact that he applied to a 'newly-married man a term that should be confined to a maid. Only those who have gone through an operation whicft is fresh in the memory can appreciate the gravity? and humor?of a ''break" in an Okla homa daily. Mr. Blank, who was op erated on for appendicitis," read an item In the western paper. " is rap idly recovering. Ills many friends hope to see him cut again soon." The same paper shortly afterward hit ended NOTICE! Before Buying Your Bagging and Tires, see F. M.

Imagine his eliagrln upon seeing the auuouuco ment In a daily that he would preach about "Tile Broken Neck!" Indeed, ' It became mvessary on one omuilon for a minuter to make explanation of an orror appearing on tickets for an entertainment, with which he was charged with having printed. "I wish It to he thoroughly understood," said the preacher to his congregation on Sunday. "that the .pulpit Is not respon sible for tho printer's error which oc curs on the tickets for the Sunday i school children's entertainment. The affair is for the entertainment <>f tho arch fund'?J\oi the arch fiend!" More than one Pfadueahan remem bers the write-up of a social event which occurred at Wallace Park sev eral years ago. It was proven in tills case that tlio err<\r was the fault of an excited eportcr- Of course, the op erator followed copy- In detail the reporter told of the evening's pleas ure, but iuarred the whole society lead when he wrote, that "a suspicious gathering \yas (present." Mvery one knew "auspiciou^" was tile word In tended. and laughed at the "break" knowing 'ithat even the good Homer sometimes nods. The story 1* told of the mixing up of two news items in a Washington paper many years ug<>. The announce ment that a minister was to he pre sented with a token of appreciation by bis congregation was printed. A write-up of a newly ipatented pig-kill ing machine whien had been demon strated appeared in the same Issue. This was the rather amusing result of the two.stories lictng "pled up," as the iprinters say: "Sever 1 of the Itev. I). K. Mudge's friends called upon him yesterday and after a conversation the unsuspecting pig was seized by the legs and slid along the beam Until ho reached the hot-water tank-" It t(?ok considerable explaining to set the edi tor right that day. though he was In nocent of Ihe mix-up. John fvocke, the Irish i>oot. was known as "The.Southern GhA" When lie died an obituary appeared in one of the Irish-American journals and re ferred to him as "The Southern (J<a!c." This was a-breezy transposition, to be sure, and changing the meaning <*>n siderably- The editor did not get ''in bad" because the two letters were transposed, though a .prominent. |s>li tician did "howl" when he saw Intel ligence of his resignation from pyblic office (printed under the heading of "Public Improvements." Hut the most startling ridiculous transposition on record i* probably that appearing on t'he first page of a Chicago dal'y. for ''breaks" are certain to be displayed in the most conspicuous iflnces. First there was an article with this eaptidn. tin* dash Septra ti??g the first- line of n tbree-Une heading: The Condor of the Andes?All>ert Seat?n "Berry, of Kentucky, Hears That Distinction." In another column, on the same i>ago of the pai>er In question, was this an nouncement : *T\allest Mian (in CVui gress?Soars Far Above the IOagfe and Reaches a Height of Six Miles." The insertion, omission or substitu tion of a single letter in a printed word, or transposition of letters and even whole lines of type as shown nlwve, is. then, the cause of much merriment and laughter?years after ward. "Our delicious canned meats from the* best houses," was the way the advertiser wrote tho line. "From the best horses" was the way It ap peared in the paper, and complaint was justified in becoming infuriated. "Thousands of our patrons are -wear ing trousers of our make," and the tailors who so advertised had reason to be angry when the printer made the fourth word of their announcement read "matron**." An Fnglish railway company advertl*ed requesting owners of unclaimed goods to remove same. "Come forward and pay the awful charges on your merchandise," were the final words of the advertisement. One "1" was missing In "lawful" and thus the apnouncemont became a ty pographical curiosity. A writer, in commending the ability of a lady prin cipal of a girls' school,' used this ex pression, 'The reputation for which she bears.'* But that horrid linotype operator omitted the word "Which" and the error created more than a gig gle- A theatrioal man not long since contemplated writing an artloie on '^Greenwood Cemetery's Dramatic Shrines."
