Some of the greatest men in letters, the arts and sclences have been somewhat in- significant {n personal appearance, although there have been notable exceptions. Nor has the character of a man's work given an accurate conception of his proportions. Bhelley, the poet, Instead of belng small and othereal, as his verse would suggest, was five feet eleven inches and had re- markable physical strength. Hawthorne was five feet ten and a half Inches, Thack- eray six feet four inches and Walt Whit- man six feet. Men of genlus well above the medium height were Blsmarck, Bunyan, Charle- magne, Columbus, Ben Jonkon, Dr. John- son, Froude, Corot, Faubert, Milabeau, Emerson, Goethe, Von Humboldt, Mollere, Taine, Sterne, Helmholty, Richelleu, Schopenhauer, Tennyson, Tasso, Words- worth, Tourgeneff and Jean Paul Richter. Among the men of genlus of medlum helght you find Byron, Beaconsfleld, Dick- ens, Gladstone, Dante, Gabriel Rosettl, Bul- wer, Bwift, Voltaire, Wellington, Zola, Baudelaire, Alexander the Great, Chopin, Sir Thomas Browne, Browning, Defoe, Haslett, Poe, Michael Angelo, Luther, Newton, De Mauspassant and Verlaine. The little fellows make a brave showing. You find Balsac, the novelist, who was five teet four; Willigm Blake, artist and mystie, barely five feet; Beethoven, that glant of muslc, five feet four; Napoleon, only fiye feet one inch; Nelson, the great admiral, five feet fgur; Caesar, Aristotle, Dryden, Calvin, Eghsmus, Faraday, Gibbon, Gar- rick, Goldsmith, Horace, Hogarth, Harvey, the surgeon who discovered the eclrcula- tion of the blood; Kepler, the great as- tronomer; Montaigne, Milton, Mozart, Wag- ner, Spencer and Turner, the artist be- loved of Ruskin. Shakespeare has been described as of middle height, spare and of sweet coun- tenance, but the height standards vary with each century. UNCLE SAN'S BlC PRINT SHOP A World-Beater in lin. Cost, Equipment and Oelerity, EQUAL TO FOURTEEN ACRES OF SPACE Modern Convenlences and Moderm Methods of Operantions—~Notable Records in Printing: of the Pajyroll. The magnificent $2,600,00 government printing office, which has been under erec tion for the last four years in Washington, is now practically completed, and is being occupied as rapidly as the plant, a great deal of which is also new, can be put in place. 1t the seven floors of the huge new print- ing office were spread out side by side in- stead of being one above the other, they would cover fourteen acres, or four ordi- nary city blocks. Each one of these floors is practically a single room, as there are few partitions. As printers need a good deal of light, one-third of all the wall epace is glass, there being 1,500 windows in the new bullding. 'In order that this light may not be lost, the interior walls are lined with white enamelled bricks which can be washed. The building Is fireproof, or as nearly fireproof as any building can be. It is also as substantial as possible. Its walls are bullt like those of a fortr as type 1s heavy and printing presses cause con- siderable vibration, and it would be unfor- tunate to have the roof and walls cave in and bury 4,000 American citizens under ma- terlal and machinery that is Intended for the dissemination of intelligence. The floors, 80 the engineers calculate, will sustain a welght of 8,000,000 pounds, which s, of course, much in excess of any weight which they will be called upon to bear. The out- side walls are three feet thick, and to con? struct them 10,000,000 red bricks were re- qQuired, enough to rebuild two-thirds of the Washington monument. Inclosed within them is a steel framework weighing about 12,000,000 pounds, which is heavier perhaps than the frame of any other bullding in the country. The steel columns, beams, girders and plates are not made of ordinary stock steel, but were forged to order, and the steel work is so protected that in case of heat belng generated by any cause its strength will not be affected by warping. Modern Methods of Operation, The most modern methods of operating the machinery have been provided. There will not be a foot of shafting in the whole bullding. Bach of the 300 presses will have its own motor, propelled by three of the largest dynamos in the country, each of 800 horse-power. These dynamos will also supply 7,000 incandescent lights and a most novel system of ventilating fans, which are placed in the loft and will draw the air from the different floors through shafts and expel it through the roof with such rapidity that there will be an entire change of atmosphere in thé bullding every seven minutes, and each employe will have 3,00 cuble feet of pure, fresh air an hour. Another novelty will be seventy-five drinking fountains placed at convenient lo- cations throughout the bullding, fed from pumps in the basement, which force the water through an ammonia freesing plant, reducing it to a temperature of 45 degrees in all parts of the bullding. A complete system of telephones has been Installed, 80 that the foreman of every department can communicate with the chiefs of di- visions, and by lifting a receiver to his ear Mr. Palmer, the public printer, may know instantly what is going on in any part of the establishment. Vaults have been con- strueted at convenient places on the differ- ent floors for the storage of “‘standing type,” electrotyped plates and printed doc- uments of a secret and confidential char- acter, such as messages of the president, Teports of his secretarles, treaties, reports of congress committees, and other docu- ments until it 18 time to give them to the public. There are enormous storerooms for the stock of material kept on hand, which is probably greater In amount than can be found in any similar establishment in the world. In the regular course of business the pripters use about fifteen tons of pa- per a day, and In the cases are more than twe million pounds of ordinary type. An inventory of some of the material in daily use in the printing offi in ordinary amounts on bhand tuclude 8,000 tons of pa- per, 37,000 pounds of glue, 4,000 packs of gold leaf, 75,000 square feet of Russia leather, 35,000 sheepskins for binding the statutes of the United States, 3,600 gallons of lubricating oll, 40,000 pounds of printer's ink, 20,00 pounds of roller composition, 11,00 Turkey Morocoo skins, 11,000 gallons of bensine, 6,000 pleces of book muslin and 8,600 yards of canvas. Payroll of the Shop. ‘There are 3,957 employes on the payroll of the government printing office, distrib- uted about the establishment as follows: Executive office, 42; main composing room, 885; bindery, 927; main press room, 25§; Job press room, $3; job composing room, 122; electrotype room, 85; specification room, 288; folding room, 721; “Congres- sional Record” room, 100; chlef engineer's room, 59; Treasury department branch, 62; Library of Congress branch, 70; Interior department branch, &; Navy department branch, 8; War department branch, 29; State department branch, 3; Department of Agriculture branch, 17; public document division, 40; miscellaneous, 165, With this force the government of the United States does more printing and pub- lishes more documents than any other na- tion in the world. Last year the cost of this branch of the service reached $5,848,- 458.08. The most remarkable job of print- ing ever turned out by the institution, and one which is regarded as the record- breaker of the world, was the publication of the report of the congressional commit- tee which inquired into the hazing incl- dents at West Point three years ago. The manuseript was delivered to Captain Henry Brain, foreman of printing, about 6 o'clock one Baturday evening, and on Monday morning three volumes of 2,00 printed pages were upon the desks of members of the House of Representatives, who wanted to refer to the testimony in the debate that was to take place that day upon the military academy appropriation bil. the presswork was limited, but 10,000 coples could as well have been printed, stitched and bound in the same time, Another record breaker in the printing line was the report of the court ef inquiry on the Maine disaster. The manuscript was recelved after ¢ o'clock one evening and a volume of 200 pages, with twenty-five illustrations, was delivered at the Navy de- partment at the opening of office hours the next morning. Twenty-four of the illustra tions were half-tone, one belng colored, which required two impressions, Record tu Book Making. Some years ago the revised statutes of the United States, a volume of 1,000 quarto pages, was put in type, printed and bound in sbeep between Wednesday night and Baturday noon. No other printing office In the world could have done the job in that time. Captain Brain declares that the ca- pacity of the plant has never yet boen tested. It has no lmit, he asserts, and If it was necessary the type could be set, the presswork and binding done and & book a5 big a8 Webster's dictionary or a set of four volumes of 1,000 pages sach could be \ Scotland, is H The edition was a small one, so that delivered in twenty-four hours. Captain Brain is anxfous to have some one ask the impossible of the government printing of- fice, and declares that It could produce the biggest book ever written In a single day. The largest annual publication of the gov- ernment is the yearbook of the Agricultural department, a volume of 800 or %0 pages, of which an edition of 500,000 coples is printed and bound every year; but that is an easy Job. The presses are capable of turning out an average of 100000 impressions a day. Among these presses are soms almost as large as those In the big newspaper offices, as well as some freaks. One of the latter Is & press which prints cards on both sides from a web of bristol board at the rate of 66,000 an hour. There are also four envelops presses Which turn out 10,000 envelopes an hour. Printing the Record. The printing of the Congressional Record is one of the most important tasks of the government printing office. This Record s in reality a dally newspaper, recording nothing but' the official sayings and doings of the national legislators of both houses. The officlal reporters ot the house and senate take down in shorthand every word that' is uttered during the session. They then dictate the matter to typewriters and this typewritten cop is sent to the print- ing office by mess. ers. The first of the py reaches the printer about & p. m., at which hour the compositors go to work, and, unless there is a night session in progress, all of the matter for the issue of Any one day is set up %o that a member may see the proof of his speech before he retires for the night, and find it in the Record at the first delivery of mail In the morning. The printing of the Record costs the government $125,000 annually. Congress furnishes more tasks for the government printer than do all of the government de- partments combined, and the charge is a long-standing one that much money is wasted by the printing of worthless and useless documents for the legislative body, a habit which is continually growing. It fs said that a company at Edinburgh, building a printing establish- ment more than twice as large s the gov- ernment office at Washington, and that it will cost $7,00,000, while Uncle Sam's print- ery represents only about $,000,00. The French government has the next biggest printing establishment, in a village near Parls. That of the German government is the third in size, while the Japanese is fourth. The firm of Spottiswoode & Eyre does the printing for the British gavern- ment under contract. The work is done in several large establishments, but if they were all placed together they would not be half so large as the printing office. There is now no private establishment in the world that bears any comparison with the government office; in fact, there is none one-half as large. The Clock Struck One, The head of the family, with his beloved sweetbriar and his favorite magaszine, had settled back In the rocker for a quiet, com- fortable evening. On the other side of an intervening table was the minfature counterpart of himself. the wrinkling of whose § year old forehead indicated that he was mentally wrestlin with some perplexing problem. After a while he looked toward his comfort loving parent, and, with s hopeless inflection, asked: i “Pat “Yes, my son.” “Can the lord make everything?" “Yes, my boy." “Every everything?* ““There is nothing, my sou, that He can- not do." “Papa, could He mak: ‘would strike leas than one?” “Now, Johnny, go right up stairs to your ma, and don't stop down here to lnnoy me when I'm reading.’ .
