Christian Science Monitor to end daily publication 
     The Christian Science Monitor said Tuesday it will become the first national newspaper to drop its daily print edition and focus on publishing online, succumbing to the financial pressure squeezing its industry harder than ever.
    Come April, the Boston-based general-interest paper�founded in 1908 and the winner of seven Pulitzer Prizes�will print only a weekend edition after struggling financially for decades, its editor announced Tuesday.
   The Monitor's circulation has fallen from a peak of 223,000 in 1970 to about 50,000 now, while its online traffic has soared. The newspaper gets about 5 million page-views per month, compared with about 4 million five years ago and 1 million a decade ago.
   The Monitor was one of the first newspapers in the country to put content online, beginning in 1995, when correspondent David Rohde was taken prisoner in Bosnia.
