VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
The Cossftt Library.

To the Editor OF The Appeal:
Will you pardon me for returning to
the important subject Of building the
Cossitt Library on the bluff? Undoubt-
edly the noises are less at night than in
the day time, but then Mr.. Holmes Cum
mins's railroad-bench and bar have al
ways held him responsible for this in
fliction-makes as much noise in the dark
as in the light, and as the business OF
the country increases night work on the
railroad becomes necessity, though 1t is
not so much in the way just now. More
over, the library is not 10 be built for a
few hours in the evening only. My expert
ence with public libraries is that they close
promptly at 8 or 10 O'Clock, and the custo-
dian Is generally memorable. Quite recently
have had one refuse to allow me few
moments to finish an editorial in THE APP
PEAL and to shut Oh the gas pituessly
when the long hand Of the clock marked
the moment OF 10 o'clock pm. My OBJ
servationis that public libraries are mostly
crowded in the late hours OF the afternoon,
and not at night SO much. There is al
ways noise enough on this bluff to inter-
fere with reading and thinking until very
late at night, and to put public library
building on il would be a very great public
calamity, and obviously the trouble in
creases us the city grows.

A Suggestion 90 Col. snowden.

To the Editor Of The Appeal:
Sir-I have read both Col. Snowden's
and Judge Hammond's objections to the
locating OF the "Cossitt Library" building
on the bluff next south OF the custom
house, and l recognize the force OF their
reasoning upon the subject Nearly all Of
the valuable corners" and vacant prop
erty east OF Second and south OF Madison
streets, centrally located, belonged TO the
original 0verton estate, OF which Col.
Snowden is probably one OF the chieiest
beneiiciaries.
Now, recognizing his high public spirit,
his home pride, his immense financial in
tercsts in the growth of Memphis, and
especially the rapid appreciation OF his
large real estate in the neighborhoods sug-
gested by the erection OF this large and
elegant library in its midst, may be par
doned for suggesting that no person could
80 appropriately, so probably and with
more credit to his public spirit than Col.
Snowden donate suitable corner for the
erection of this library building. The
many good reasons tot this are so obvious
10 your city readers, and the material
profit 10 him so perceptible, 10 say moth
ing Of the great honor that would attach
TO him for so wise benifcence, that do
not hesitate to offer the above suggestions
with the hope OF oliciting from Col. Snow
den favorable response. NEiGHBoR.

A RECEIVER ORDERED.
The Ball Estate to be Taken Out of the
Executors Control.

The BAH Estate to be Taken Out OF the
Executors Control.
Years ago Byron d. Ball, "A well
remembered and wealthy citizen OF
Grand Rapids, died and left an estate
valued then at more than $4,000. He
also left a widow and several children.
Mrs. Ball and Harvey Hollister were
named in the Will as executors. Sub
scquently Mrs. Bail married and be
came Mrs. Martha NJ. Tompkins.
Some time since one OF the heirs,
Ashley J.. Ball. filed n bill in the
United States Court, asking for the
appointment OF a receiver to take
charge OF the remainder OF the estate
and protect It from further waste. IL
appears that after Mrs. Balls marriage
To TOmpkins. who Is an attorney, she
practically took charge OF affairs her
self, and ignored or refused to act IN
harmony with Mr.. HOllister, her CO.
executor, and by reason OF her ex-
trayagance, and bad handling of the
property, it has been dwindiod away 10
mere fragment of It's original value,
whereas 10y judicious handling 1t might
have increased.
Judge Severens heard the case fully,
and decided Yesterday that an order
would be made appointing a receiver,
unless the parties could make some ar
Tangements between themselves that
would ObvIatc thenCcesSIty of one. The
parties are now endeayOrlng to agree
on some plan, but 1t j. most probable
that none Will bc reached.
