is quiet gentlemanly appearing man
of perhaps 55, whose face and figure
show the years of hard, careful toll that
he has bestowed upon his life work. He
is one of the hardest working men In
official life in Washington, and, it may
be remarked, draws more money for
his work than does any officer of the
government except the president. He
gets 5000 per year for reporting the
Senate. He must out of this pay all his as
sistants, but it is estimated that he nets
about one-half the sum paid for their
services, perhaps more. he lives IN an
elegant brow nstone front, on & Street,
not far from the Capitol, keeps hand
some team, and enjoys life as best he
may when there is no session to take
his attention. When tho Senate is in
session his hours are very long and Ia
borious. He, with one assistant, MIR.
Shuey, reports all the debates of the
Senate after the morning hour has ex-
pired, turning over their notes to assist
ants who transcribes them. This of
its2lf is quite q remarkable matter, as
very few stenographers are able to read
the writing of others, though they write
the same system. Mr.. Murphy's brother
Mr.. E. V. Murphy, who has been with
him ten years or more, reads. his notes
readily, and in many cases reads to
other stenographers, who, taking them
in shorthand, write them out for print
ers. All this, however, Mr.. Murphy
himself revises after it is written out
in longhand, and as the reports of the
Senate often make as much AZ sixteen
pages of the Record, it is easy to see that
the task is a tremendous one. To
read, even in type, what would make
from ten to twenty columns in an or
binary newspaper is no small task, and
how much more so in manuscript hur-
riedly written as it often must be.

Comparisons are said to be odious, but
when made in the right spirit they often give
strength to facts, aid truth and efforts to
reform. In the free library, Germantown,
Philadelphia, there are no works of fiction
circulated and much praise is lavished on this
exemplary library for its efforts in resisting
the demand for fiction. In the annual report
Of the librarian of this Germantown library
made April 10, 1885, we find the total num-
Der of volumes without fiction to be l2,03l
and circulation OF l4,292. Now opposite
to this we place the annual report of the
Springfield, O., public library, made May l.,
1885, showing the total number volumes to
to be H., 1927 with q circulation OF S4,645, or
deducting the circulation Of fiction and juve-
nile from this total Of "a, CAS- there remains
circulation of 23, 900 from other departments,
an increase over the circulation OF the Ger
mantown library OF about 5000 volumes. The
tistics whether the restraining OF all fiction
increases the circulation Of more reading In
any community. That fiction should be
carefully selected is no doubt important and
true and is the course the Board Of Trustees
OF the Springfield library have pursued in
their purchases. But that all fiction should
be shut out is evidently unwise, as it confines
readers to heavy and often dry reading with
out any of the relief and relish which a spicy
or good moral tenor novel inspires. Right
reading can be taught not by excluding fic-
ton, but by leading young minds TO the very
best, and when once they have taste formed
for such novels as Scott, Cooper and Dickens
they will readily discard the trash.
