CAPITAL NOTES,
State Library.

There is being added to the state
library the largest and most valuable
collection of medical books in the state
of Kansas. 1t is presented by Mrs.
Jane c. Stormont, Of Topeka, who has
donated $4,000 as permanent fund
for the purchase of medical books, to
be kept separately and named in some
appropriate way to distinguish them as
memorial to her deceased husband,
DR.. ID. w. Stormont. The sum of
$1,000 presented by Mrs. Stormont has
been permanently invested. State
Librarian Dennis in his report just is
sued. SAYS of this donation:
I'm addition to the above donation,
Mrs. Stormont proposes to purchase
and present to the 'Stormont medical
library new books to the value of
$4,000. These are being selected by a
committee of physicians chosen by Mrs.
Stormont, and consisting of Drs Reid
Alexander, G. II. Guibor, r. NJ. Phil
lips, John E. Minney and w. L.
Shenck. Two hundred and ten vol
umes have already been purchased. aud
arc now in the library, full list and
description of which can be found IN
schedule K.
1T is the intention of Mrs. Stormont
to continue to purchase and place in
the library similar books to the value
of $1,000, as fast as the selection can
be judiciously made, which will start
the Stormont collection with about
1000 volumes of standard medical
books, and which will at once make it
the largest and best selected collection
of medical books in the state of Kan
sas. or, in fact, to be found anywhere,
except in the library of a medical col.
lege.
1T has been thought best to leave
the accumulation of the permanent fund
in the treasury until this voluntary
purchase is completed, when the $500
now accrued and the subsequently ma
turing interest may be used to better
advantage in topically equalizing the
collection.
LET me say few words about this
donation. In the first place it is
