THE third Biennial report Of the
State librarian, which lies on our ia
bic, makes painfully evident the need
of separate building, or greatly en-
larged quarters, for the books belong
lug to the State. The report shows
that it is impossible even to number
them accurately in their present
crowded condition, while anything
Ikea methodical arrangements of them
is altogether out of the question. 1t is
certainly high time that this state OF
things should be changed, for it has
existed long enough, and we hope to
see some steps taken by the legisla'
ture this winter that shall bring some
sort of order out of the chaos. Kansas
really has o. library that she may be
proud of, and it ought not to be crowd.

GAKBETTA,

The greatest Frenchman Of modern
times-a man who may be likened to
Richeliei and Mirabeau passed away
with the closing year. Leon Gam
betta's life was truly ''broken col
umn.n' At. fourty-four years of age,
his career had been brilliant, but it
promised greater things for the future.
Although he had just laid down the
reins of power, on account of his fail
ure TO influence the legislature to his
policy, he still stood first in the hearts
of the French people, strongest in his
magnificent courage and ability, and
the one to whom. all eyes would have
turned i'm crisis-an. event not at all
unlikely to occur in the present I'M
stable state of affairs in France.
Gambetta first, came into promi-
nence as the most uncompromising en-
envy of the arbitrary governmental
measures of Louis Napoleon. After
the surrender Of Sedan in the Franco
Rrussian war, be was the first to pro-
claim the republic, and since the death
of Theirs has been it's main-stay.
When the government under McMa-
hon was drifting to 9 military despOt-
ism, it was his unparalleled personal
power that checked the movement and
compelled Mcmahon to resign. And
YET to none other was the military
glory of France more dear. Never since
the failure of his tremendous efforts to
re-organize the shattered armies Of
France and save them FROM the igno-
miny afa German defeat. has he fall
tered ia his design of restoring the
prestige of French arms, and regain
ing the lost provinces Of Alsaee and
Lorraine. And in this design be was
the most aggressive representative Of
deep-seated, popular feeling that con-
tributed much to bis power and popu-
lsrity., But aside from being the req
resentative Of an aroused and progress
i've national feeling, he was man
whose very temperament commended
and endeared him to Frenchmen. He
was courageous, passionate and i'm
pulsive. One of the greatest orators of
modern times, his oratory, like Mira
beau's, was Of that overwhelming and
impetuous type that swayed the
French mind with almost absolute
power. 1t is true that he found him
self unable to enforce some of his re-
cent political measures-notably the
scrntfn de Aste-but he was fast re-
gaining his foot-hold, and at the first
MOnelt Of real trial.. all eyes would
have been turned to him. Only death
prevented an illustrious future.
1t Is difficult to estimate the char
scteT of Gswbetta. He begun as a
demagogue, and we are inclined to
think it was only his magnificent sue
cess that carried him out OF that cate
CORY. I'm measures and methods he
was audacious and INSCRIPTIONS. He
was ambitious, but one of those men
whose ambition is excused by the very
character Of its expression. By work
ing for the highest good of France he
COMPRESSED the highest good of Gam
beta, and hoy far he would have

NJ. G. Psscher states that the only sub
stance which really renders cements unslter-
able in the air is a cold solution of one part
of sulphate of iron to three parts of water.
The cemented articles are left in the solution
for "a hours. At the end of this time they
take on greenish black tint due to the
hydrated protoxide of iron. The absorbed
solution is decomposed in the interior of the
cement; the weight of the cement is in
creased 10 per cent; all the pores of the
mass are thus closed by the hydrats and as
this continuation is not attacked by the air
the cement itself becomes unalterable.
