The first “daily” wae called ‘The Daily Courant and was pub- lished by E. Mallet, “against the Ditch at Fleet bridge”—close by the site of the present London Times office. The paper was only a single sheet of two columns. It professed to give only foreign news with the name of the foreign source. So keen was the publisher to steer clear of any responsibility for his news, and to hide himself and his views in the background, that he says in his firet iesue in #0 many words he will make no comments of his own, “anpposing other people to have sense enough to make reflections for themselves.” The Daily Courant, which lasted until 1735, may be said to be the first daily newspaper in anything like the modern sense. Yet! the Romans had a publication called “Daily Happenings” (Acta Diurna) which noted the movements of the armies and elections, | games, sacrifices or wonders of the town. These were written out by special officers, deposited in the state archives, and copies posted about the city. A few circulated privately.

'N presenting the report of the Domestic Relations Court of the Borough of Brooklyn for the year 1911, Magistrate Edward J. Dooley shows with interesting directness the purpose and ac-/ complishment of this comparatively new and unknown branch of the court system. The Court has been in cxistence only about 9 year and a half, since September, 1910. It has atmed to provide just and speedy relief for family tangles and grievances of wage earners. The underlying thought, according to Magistrate Dooley, “has been to impress upon the care- lems husband, negligent father and obligated relative” a compelling eemee of his duties—and this “not by ary sledgehammer method, but rether in the way of plain homespun truths in a sort of family council and in s friendly spirit, having always in mind the hope that in the near future the clouds may be lifted and the family reunited.” To judge from the report, both attitude and work of the court have been singularly optimistic, helpful and practical.

Consideration and correction are the motives behind the Court’s efforts, It is now advising a statutory amendment whereby convic- tion need not brand the defendant as a “disorderly person,” which tends to “degrade and lower natural pride,” but rather impose merely “probationary oversight.” In the year 1911 2,490 persona were arraigned in this Court. Of these 1,486 cases were dismissed and 401 are still pending. Cases of abandonment are most ‘numerous, numbering 553 in a total of 08, the other fifty being failure to provide. / Convictions run highest between the ages of 20 and 30.
