The Bins lainton Library Association formerly oc-
ouped much of the attention of the public and has iur
nirhcd 10 this city and vicinity some OF the oeS' enter
tainmcnts ever enjoyed here. As time wore away,
however the active workers of the association elmer
ed out of the city died and Tor the past two or
three seasons little has been heard OF the associate or
lie looks These however, have been carefully looked
after and when recently an inventory was maze pre-
parstory to turning the library over to the lonng
Mons Christian Association it was found that uou
volumes worth about - GOO were on the shelves ihe
work of transfer ring the property of the brary As
ISOLATION TO the lonng Mems Christian Association
was finally accomplished, and manly through the
EFFORTS OF G. W. Ioomis ID. H. Carver. VIII ELY and
a dozen others legislation necessary wa, 'ecured Inc
propeiiy of the Ii ry Association did not consist en-
tucly Of books. When Colonel Walton Dwight de'
he ;ctt TO il 50 800 for the immediate purchase OF
books and $1,000 to be funded for tie support OF
library The great suits still pending ana
this sum is as yet at hand. 1t is however ORA wing

al OoO all OF which the Young Mems CHRISTIAN AS
sociation Will probably have for its library.
