Same LoC scan for 4 of 4 pages.

Scorecard

Each comparison starts from a snewpapers component. "=" means both systems drew the same article. Where they differ, a language model, shown only the text, was asked which is right, twice, with the two claims stated in each order.

Unsure: the verdict changed when the two claims were stated in the other order, or no valid answer came back. Neither: the model found both segmentations wrong. Page furniture: the text was a line or two that could be a title, section title or the like, which one system leaves out by design, so it decides nothing.

Over the 91 components of ours AS has text inside, the same text on both sides; words of 3 or more letters, a long s read as f allowed. Components where more of the text is real words: snewpapers 57 · AS 3 · the same 31. AS marked 7 boxes illegible over 7 of our components and read no text from them; snewpapers' text of those components is 99.0% real words.

How this was scored

Every comparison is anchored on a snewpapers component and the American Stories boxes inside it. Where those boxes belong to several AS articles (or several of our components lie inside one AS article), the model was shown the passage as the numbered pieces and asked whether it is one component, several or mixed, twice, with the two beliefs stated, unattributed, in each order. A verdict that changed with the order is unstable and counts for neither side. AS text inside none of our components was asked whether it is advertisements, terms or page furniture, which snewpapers leaves out on purpose. Where AS attaches text outside one of our components (text of an AS article our component otherwise has), the model was shown our component's text and the attached text and asked whether the text belongs to the component, twice, the two beliefs stated in each order: "separate" means snewpapers is right, "belongs" American Stories. Where two AS articles inside one of our components hold the same text (the shorter sharing at least 50% of its 4-word phrases with the longer), the longer is kept and the text counted as duplicated by American Stories; so is attached text another AS article also holds. Where American Stories has a line or two of our component (at most 12 words and 5% of its area) in another AS article while one article holds the rest, the line is no split: the model was shown the rest of the AS text and the line and asked whether the line belongs to the component, both ways; "belongs" means snewpapers is right and judges only the article holding the line wrong (lines in another AS article). One AS article counts as a match only when the two cover each other, both ways: AS text covers at least 90% of our component, and our component at least 90% of that AS article's text. Coverage is measured line by line down each column (how much of its height the other side's boxes span, so a centred headline narrower than its column still counts). Under 90% the first way, the component is partly captured by AS (the rest in no AS box, or marked illegible): not asked, an AS error by the geometry, its AS article judged wrong (AS articles missing part of ours). Under 90% the second way, the AS article runs on beyond our component into other text: that text is asked about as text attached outside, and "separate" judges the AS article wrong (AS articles running on into other items). Decisions are the unit counted above; the last table counts what they judged: an as_split decided "one" is one decision and every AS article inside our component judged wrong, an N ours : 1 AS decided "several" one decision and each of our N components judged right (an article or component judged both ways by different decisions counts in both rows). AS errors count what the decisions for snewpapers found American Stories got wrong, next to those decisions: an N ours : 1 AS is N errors, the N items of ours AS failed to separate (items AS merged), a 1 ours : N AS N errors, the N AS fragment articles. A component inside an N ours : 1 AS (its AS text a slice of the merged article) is counted in the components table by that decision's outcome. A component running over pages is one comparison across them (American Stories never links an article across pages): its AS articles on all its pages, labelled by page, are the pieces asked about, once; it counts once among our components, and a decision for snewpapers judges every one of those AS articles wrong, each a fragment article.

How to read this

Each group is the same crop of the scan twice: snewpapers' boxes on the left, American Stories' on the right. The group's own boxes are outlined in red. Groups are in page position order (column by column), not reading order. A component can appear twice: in its own case and in an N ours : 1 AS group. Text of a component's own AS articles printed outside the component is left out of the comparison and shown beneath the group as "American Stories also attaches: «…» (outside this component)".

1:1 match	the AS text inside our component (boxes, or the slices of boxes it overlaps) all belongs to one AS article (or to several that duplicate one another: American Stories duplicated the text)
1 ours : N AS	the AS text inside our component belongs to several AS articles: one component or several?
N ours : 1 AS	two or more of our components lie inside one AS article (80% or more of each, or 50% or more with a slice of the article): one component or several?
in N ours : 1 AS	all the AS text inside our component is a slice of an AS article that holds other components of ours too: no agreement (the slice is cut along our boundaries, not AS's); decided by that N ours : 1 AS
continued	a later page of a component of ours running over pages: compared, asked and decided once, across its pages, in the group on its first page
ours only	no AS box overlaps our component enough to give it a slice: not captured by American Stories
AS only	AS text inside none of our components (one AS article's): left out on purpose, or missed?
AS only, tiny	AS text inside none of our components, under 20 characters: not asked
AS only, no text	an AS article inside none of our components with no text at all (AS boxed it but read nothing, most often marking it illegible): nothing to ask, counted for neither side
1:1, AS partial	the AS text inside our component all belongs to one AS article, but AS has text for under 90% of our component, measured line by line (the rest is in no AS box, or AS marked it illegible): partly captured by American Stories, not asked; its AS article counts as an AS error
1:1, AS article wider	one AS article holds our component, but runs on beyond it into other text (our component covers under 90% of the article's text, measured line by line): the text it runs into is asked about, and decides it

TX IRSi0N TO HANGING.

to See MOrgans Execution.

PARKERsBURG, W. Va, Nov. 25. = Greens Hollow where the first hang ing in jackson county occurred in 1880, is being cleared of brush and underground, preparatory to the exc cution of John Morgan, the triple murderer, which is expected to take place there December Is. Sheriff Shinn has already secured the rome with which he proposes to hang Morgan, and is bnilding the scaffold upon the same spot where Green, from whom the place takes its name. was hung.

The Typography of the place is such that thousands can witness the exc cution, which all the country people for miles around will attend, regard ing it somewhat in the light of a county fair or public event not to be missed. Efforts will be made to in duce the Ohio River railroad to run special excursion trains to the nearest railway station.

A BAD COMMUNITY.

Crime Rampant in Doddridge County.

Many of the inhabitants of the settlement known as Robison Fork in the eastern portion of the county seem to be in a state of revolt. Crime and bickering and strife are rampant. In one school sub-district, known as the Cascara school, two school houses and two other buildings in which school was being taught have been burned to the ground, all of which is believed to be the work of an incendiary fiend, for whom $100 reward has been offered by the patrons of the school.

A lady teacher in another school has been indicted for cohabiting with a married man in the same neighborhood, and also, a damage suit is pending in the same matter and their transfer of property has been swift in the extreme.

A notary has been indicted on a charge of forgery, which was clearly proven to be a plain case of spitework. The case was tried in our court here Monday and the notary was acquitted.—West Union Record.

Some Rambling Thoughts.

"BY NEMO."

The wish of men to fly has never yet caused wings to bud, but the wish has been father to numberless thoughts about free movement over the face of the earth, and thus asses, camels, horses, and so forth have been broken to our use, and used until too slow for our hastening spirits. From them we have passed to steam, to electricity, to compressed air, and to other forms of propulsion. Even the flying machine is rapidly nearing a commercial possibility. Better than the birds who fly, yet needs must rest, our servants carry us, so that we skim the earth through proxy effort and eat or sleep or transact business while being flitted from place to place by tireless machinery. But I do not write this in order to minister to human pride; on the contrary, it is to point a moral for those whose hearts sometimes feel like bursting at being shut away in a narrow place. I know just how you feel; eager to do great things, sure that you could do them if you had a chance, and yet prevented by conditions that seem cruel in themselves, and more cruel when you see how they are hindering you. Have patience—at least for five minutes—and let us draw a little inspiration from poor wingless man, who being without powers of flight and yet desirous of such powers—learning that the boon does not grant him his wish, sets his brain to work. Its results we know. Like the traveler who scales a cliff by turning this way and that, the absence of wings is a limitation that has been set aside.

Apply this method to yourself, pining and eager one. Mere longing for different circumstances will never bring them. Opportunities are not forced by pulling wish-bones, nor do chances come by chiding fate. Since you cannot be in two places at once your place for the present is precisely the place you are in, and if viewed aright you will be loth to change it until you have done your all with it. The most seldom spot in the world for you, is the spot you stand on; for it is your testing place—not some one else's, but yours—it is your opportunity to show what a man with limitations can do and can dare. Transported suddenly from where you are doing less than your all—for that must be true if you are grumbling and fuming—to new circumstances that seem ideal, you will still find reasons for discontent. But if where you are, you made a wholesome blending of content and discontent,—content that you know your limitations and discontented to the extent of fitting yourself for wider scope, the time of fuller, more satisfactory life is practically certain to come. The waiting may be long, but even if long or the chance for ever deferred, you will have done well.

Overworked one, pressed with anxieties and harassed by those who ought to, but do not seem to co-operate with you, calm yourself. You are like a tangled kite, tearing yourself to pieces in a thicket, instead of the eagle you should be, soaring far above. You know full well that the work you are doing needs to be done; that it is laid upon you to do it; and in your heart you try to feel that the man and the task will surely fit. Believe this with your whole heart and little annoyances will assume their proper size. In your calm moments you are thrilled by the things you intend to accomplish during life; multiply your calm moments by sheer exercise of will and your belief in your own purposes will carry you far above petty interruptions. You are in a battle, fight it through. Would you in such a place pay any heed to nettles? When the smoke has rolled away and the dust of conflict settled you shall stand triumphant beneath the silent stars. All of life is not the present harassed moment; there remaineth an eventide for the solace of those who toil and triumph. At twenty-five, James Watt, who has transformed the world with steam, begged for the benignity of death, so troubled was he, yet he came to be the sweetest, sunniest old man you could wish to meet.

Questioning one, do you complain because God is a mystery? Would you have Him as visible as a tree and as tangible as a rock? Then He would be the one understandable thing in a world of mystery. Your inner details, your outer life, the two natures within you—these are mysteries. The workings of the mind of

(Continued on second page.)

(Continued from first page.)

the one you love, hidden as effectually as a stranger's from your own thought—this is a mystery. The impossibility of a man thoroughly understanding a woman and vice versa—this is a mystery. Clear out of your daily life, in its simplest details, all that is strange; fathom it all and understand it; then may you raise querulous complainings at a mystery that hedges around the creator of all mysteries.

The prisoner prayed that he might have some light; It came, showed him but his sorry plight. The savant prayed for power to pierce the sky: It came, and, dazed, he begged that he might die. So give us, Lord, such light as suits our mind, To know not over much nor wander blind

Bereaved one, weeping bitter tears beside the empty chair, you are not alone in your sorrow. Human woes have preceded you by ages and human woes will last long after time has taken the smart from your own wound. But these seem naught to you for they were not your sorrows. Yet dear one, tribulation has its place and its value you will yet live to see. In tears are great sorrows assuaged, in tears are great purposes born, in tears are noble resolves formed. Rise to live as the vanished one would most fondly wish! Thus will the dead live again in the deeds of good you do, consecrated to the memory of the lifeless.

Bereaved, I fall like wounded bird From happy heights, to limp along In gloomy vales wherein my song, I think, can never more be heard. And yet, perchance, though stricken sore. And robbed of all I held most dear, Some wiser hand has cast me here To rise to heights undreamt before.

LOVERING LASHED.

Judge Advocate Hunt Severely Roasted the Captain.

COMPARED HIM TO A SLAVE DRIVER

The Case Did Not Require Such Inhuman Treatment of Private Hammond—Neither Did the Rule Allow Such Action Damaging to the Army.

Chicago, Nov. 26.—In the Lovering court-martial at Fort Sheridan, Lieutenant Colonel Hunter of Fort Snelling, the department of Dakota, acting as judge advocate, severely arraigned Captain Lovering for his treatment of Private Charles Hammond. When the testimony was all in and Attorney Blair had addressed the court in defense of Captain Lovering's action, Judge Advocate Hunter arose. He reviewed the general evidence against Lovering, saying that the testimony showed beyond doubt that Lovering, as officer of the day, kicked Hammond, prodded him with his sword and cursed him.

"Gentlemen, I submit that in our military community anything in the nature of punishment should conform to law," he continued, "and that a general use of arbitrary power or punishment without trial is calculated to hasten our disbandment as an organization not restrained by law and in opposition to the spirit of our free institutions.

"Between the officers who exercise power in the manner the accused did and the enlisted men who are liable to become their victims there can be no other relation except that of master and slave. The exercise in the service of power and means, such as the evidence shows the accused to have employed in executing such an order and to have Private Hammond brought before the summary court, would necessarily result in our officers owning the enlisted men. There would then be little necessity for military tribunals and judge advocates, for our system of discipline would be a revival of the one in vogue before the civil war on the plantations of the south, where the right of the master to the obedience and submission of his slave in all lawful things was perfect, and the power belonged to the master to inflict any punishment on his slave not affecting life or limb which he might consider necessary for the purpose of enforcing obedience."

Colonel Hunter further said: "If you establish the fact that an officer may with impunity order any punishment he pleases to be inflicted on a soldier, you reduce enlisted men to a condition of servitude. That is what is meant by the false doctrine of being masterful. But it is the law that should be our master. There are rules published for the guidance of those who may command as well as those who may serve.

"That Hammond should have been produced in court I do not deny, but that his disobedience and stubbornness justified his being roped and dragged there, and in his prostrate, helpless condition kicked and prodded with a sword, I do most emphatically deny.

"The position in which the accused was placed by the disobedience of Hammond does not appear to have been a perilously trying one, for he had about him in the guard soldiers who were able to lift Hammond and carry him into court. The conjecture does not appear to have been so extraordinary as to justify a military officer either making a mistake of judgment or losing his temper. The law military makes no allowance for the infirmities of human temper. It perceives that loss by soldiers of self control is loss of power to command respect. No circumstances of irritation will justify a soldier in breaking from the established rules of discipline."

In concluding Colonel Hunter said: "In this trial I think there is something more than a serious accusation involved. I think the reputation of the army officers for good judgment, for command of self, for humanity and just consideration is also on trial here. This is a time of peril to your order and to your tribunals. I think the things which the accused has done tyrannically ought to appear to you who have heard them just as bitter and scandalous as they did to him that felt them. The finding rendered by this court will live long after taps have been sounded over the graves of the men composing the court."

The verdict has been forwarded to the secretary of war. The court held a secret session, at which the verdict was made and dispatched to Washington. It is the general opinion that Captain Lovering will meet with nothing worse than a reprimand. The finding is always a secret one, being forwarded to the commanding officer of the department. From General Brooke it will be sent to Washington, where it is discretionary with the military authorities to give it out for publication.

Atlantic City Man Smothered In the Mud Under His Horse.

ATLANTIC CITY, Nov. 26.—An awful fate befell Joshua Parker, better known as "Nick" Parker, of this city. Pinned down by his horse, which had fallen on him, he was smothered in the slimy mud at the bottom of a creek near Gardner's canal.

Daniel Headley, a boat builder, saw a horse in an odd position in the creek. He investigated and found that the horse was lying in the water quite dead. Headley then made a search for the driver, and in a moment more he discovered the unfortunate man, half buried in the mud beneath the body of his animal. Help was summoned and the body dragged out, but life was extinct and had apparently been so for some time. The body was immediately recognized as that of Parker.

It is supposed that Parker, while on his way home, fell asleep in his vehicle and that the horse wandered out of its way and fell into the ditch. Parker, awakened by the animal's floundering, probably got out to help the beast and was thrown into the mud with the horse on top. Unable to help himself, the poor fellow was suffocated and the rising of the tide soon covered him and his horse.

Nothing was left to be desired in the way of weather about Thanksgiving.

Grafton held an old maid's convention a few nights ago. There was no trouble experienced in getting a large attendance of home talent.

Everybody went hunting yesterday. The sound of firing was almost constant and the air was black with smoke. The few bunnies left alive are holed up and will likely remain in that condition for weeks to come so powerful was the scare given them.

A letter from Bennett S. White states that he expects to come home for a couple of days during the holidays. He is in Providence, R. I., with Brown & Sharpe. This firm has the largest, most systematically arranged and conducted plant of its kind in the world. Bennett's many friends will be glad to learn that he is doing very well in his position and is most pleasantly situated.

Butchering season is now on in the country and the poor swine is now learning why he has been fed so bounteously of late. There are a good many hogs this year and the farmers are beginning to brush up against each other in the contest for the “largest hog in the neighborhood.” The stories of big porkers will soon be flying around.

Recently a telephone inquiry came to this office from Dellslow asking if it were unlawful to kill wild turkeys. After telling the questioner about the law in question he was asked why he desired to know and he replied that there were a couple of flocks of turkeys where he was and that if it were lawful to kill them he wanted to know it.

Dennis is at liberty. He had no hearing and did not have any chance to keep himself comfortably fixed in jail. Sheriff Garrison opened the doors Wednesday and unfeelingly put Dennis out on the cold charity of an unfeeling world. The prisoner made a vigorous kick but it did not go. He thinks of appealing the matter to the mayor as he is not at all desirous of spending the winter out of his accustomed quarters.

The second team did not go to Fairmont yesterday to play the team of that place. The canceling of the game is due to the up-river boys. They did not play the game on account of Hess refusing to play. Without him they knew that they had no show at all. He was out of humor for some cause and would not play under any circumstances. It is a pity that the boys did not get a chance to lick Fairmont again.

The hypnotized man in Hirschman's window is attracting a good deal of attention. People are constantly stopping to look at him and speculate about hypnotism and kindred subjects. When Douglas was put under the influence Wednesday night several hundred gathered to see the performance. The curiosity is as great now as it was when the show first began. It is safe to say that a full house will attend the exhibition to-night.

Many literary societies have been started in the rural districts of the county, and to all we wish abundant success. Their meetings are not occasions of much social amusement but are of much value to the young. Many an accomplished orator received his first inspiration in a country debating society. We wish all the literary organizations of the county a flourishing season, and for all the orators may there be found the laurel wreath of forensic victory.
