PUBLIO AUCTION,

A GREAT NEWS AGENCY.

How the Work of Router is Done.

Now that the public damande nows from all over the world, and demands that news right speedily, the newa agonoy has become

aulted. The sub-editor must havn all bla kauwledge, foreign, internal, political, and sporting, at his finger tips. He meat. not baulk at the spelling of " Arnim-Kriewon," the German ministar, he must know the whereabouts of the Tidis Kiosk and its relative position in Para and Stamboul, without glance at the map of Constan- Hinople; the next instant he must send out A recced golf scars, and not confuse Tum with Harry Vardon. There are many easier positions than that of sub-editor en a modarą nowo-agency.

IN THE PROVINOLA.

But the provinces nowadays are too up- to date to consent to be a couple of hours behind London with their news. · So the agencias bare stablished a telephone ayetem which là wonderfully simple and swift. In the Central London office there is a vast spacious telephone room with padded walla, double doors and windows, to exclude all sounds. By anob tunk telephone instrument-ren the tapes of the various sporting, financial, law, parliamentary and general news As fast as the telegrams are taped they are transmitted to the provincial olicoe where they are taken down' and sons out again over the local ticker machines, and telephoned to all the smaller outlying

services.
