The Mathematics.

A com plete organization having been
effected, it is the determination of the
members of the National Club Of Los
Angeles to make it ono of the leading
and permanent institutions OF this city
and to make it an acknowledged factor
in bringing about the "New Social
Order" and to disband only when the
necessity of such an organization no
longer exists. Mr.. Larkin, of Azusa,
will address the meeting this afternoon,
and as he is one of the most earnest and
eloquent Of the local speakers, a large
audience is confidently expected. A
piano having been obtained for the use
of the club, by the courtesy of J. w.
Gardner Co., Mrs. Coan will resume the
charge of the musical part of the meetings.
Mr.. W. Fl. Stewart will receive at the
meeting today all contributions of books,
pamphlets and periodicals that those in.
terested may bring to form a circulating
library to be distributed to all inquirers
for literature of the movement,

ing will be delivered by Colonel J. j.
Ayers, of the HERALD. A poem, written
especially for the occasion, by A. F.
Kercheval, will be read. Each evening
during the week an attractive programme
of some sort will be carried out. The
admission fee, which has upon such occa-
sions usually been fifty cents, has been
placed at twenty-five cents, to secure as
large an attendance as possible. Chill
dren are admitted at half price, 10 cents.
The Directors had recently good deal
of trouble over the destruction of their
posters. ALI that we're put up we're torn
down, presumably because the work was
not given to those who had expected to
receive it. A reward of 500 was offered
for the detection of the guilty parties,
and the board is now confident that it has
the necessary evidence to secure the pun.

LIBRARY NOTES,
Gossip Collected There About Books
and Tn. fr Readers.

anu u ht IL ttCduCEbs
The elevator is now running smoothly
and ladies may ride to the library rooms
instead of climbing the stairs.
The first four parts of the Century
Dictionary received during the week
fulfill all of the announcement promises
Prof. Morris "Aryan Race; its Origin
and Achievements" will be an aid to
the history classes recently formed in
the city.
Marion Crawford's admirers have bis
new book, "Sant' Ilario" to console
them for their disappointment in his
"Griefenstein.
1t is probable that arrangements
will be made soon for lectures to ladies
on literature, to be given in the "Ladies'
reading.room."
There have been added to the library
during the past two weeks a number Of
books, among which may ba mentioned
new sets of the works of Dickens, Scott,
Edwin Arnold, Daudet and Balzac.
The class of German literature has
been reinforced by the addition of some
eighty volumes of miscellaneous works
by the best authors. They are fully
catalogued and ready for circulation.
The recent discussion of the Sabbath
question has created quite a demand for
Sabbath literature. Robert Cox's work,
Literature of the Sabbath Question, Il
recently added 10 the library, is one o.
the best books dealing with the subject
In spite of the fact that H. Rider
Haggard's popularity is said to be a thing
of the past, his new book, CLEOPATRA, /"
is in great demand, and the reading of
the novel has led to much inquiry for
and study Of the history of the period of
his heroine.
The new quarters have proved an at
traction to many ladies who had long
since given up all library privileges on
account of the disagreeable surroundings
at the old quarters. If compliments
were but books the usefulness of the
library would very soon bs doubled.
A call has been made for back num-
bers of all the principal magazines. 1t
is desired to have all the magazines, from
the date of their first issue, on the
shelves for reference purposes. Citizens
who have bound or unbound copies Of
Los Angeles daily herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1884-1890, 1889-09-22
magazines are requested to send them to


the library.
The demand for more in the matter of
copies of Edward Bellsmy's Looking
Backward is still unappessed, although
fifteen copies of the work are in constant
circulation. That after year and half
OF publication there should be such an
increasing demand is very unusua
fact. 1t is said that in the past year
5000 copies OF this work have been sold
in this city. That number, combined
with the library circulation, must have
put it into the hands of two-thirds of the
reading population of the city.
The reading rooms are extraordinarily
we'll patronized every day and evening,
young men and boys coming day after
day to continue some special "course''
which they have mapped out for them
selves. Their tastes in most cases
are better than those of one youthful
but ambitious reader who handed in a
slip for De Foes "Moll Flanders" When
asked why he chose that book, he re-
piled "Well, l read Robinson Crusoe'
and it was 80 good thought would
read all of his works right straight
through" 1t took but few moments
to Introduce him to Du Chaillu, whose
books OF adventure in Africa are proving
satisfactory substitute for De Foe.
The innovation of circulating current
numbers of magazines has met with
prompt appreciation, for, notwithstand-
ing the number Of copies of "Harper,"
Century" 'Scribner," Forum"
Popular Science Monthly" cloth Gem
tury," Atlantic" North American
Review" Current Literature" "Out-
ing" "Lippincott," Cosmopolitan"
"Nation," "Critic," "Wide Awake"
est. Nicholas" and "Harper's Young
People" that are furnished for home use
they are ''out" constantly. This class of
literature is eagerly sought by the Dor
rowers and in consequence the percent
age of fiction which is in all circulating
libraries 30 much larger than other
classes is greatly reduced. 1t has be-
come matter of pride with every Ii
brarian to reduce the tell-tale figures and
show progress toward better class of
reading.
