A Curious Library.

In 1867 a rich collector of stamps.
coins, eggs, woods, ETC., presented the
town museum at Cassel, Germany. with
one of the most remarkable set of books
known to the bibliomaniac or botanist-
a library of 500 volumes, each book
made of different kind Of wood. The
book of each volume is formed of the
bark Of tree, the sides OF the wood in
its mature state, the top of the wood as
taken when young, and the bottom Of
the same wood after it has been dried
and seasoned. When opened tho book
is found to be without leaves, box
shaped, containing the flower, seed,
fruit and leaf Of the tree Of which the
box book is made. Australia is said TO
have over 1000 species of trees large
enough to work up into books after the
fashion Of those in the Cassel museum.
At the time of the Melbourne colonial
exposition of 1866 Col. Clamp exhibited
large collection of woods made into
books, each alphabetically arranged, and
labeled with both the common and the
scientific name Of the species Of wood
from which the dainty little wooden
volumes were fashioned. The collection
was gotten up TO show the wonderful
possibilities of Australian forestry. TAX
ing advantage Of the wooden library at
Cassel and the commendable efforts Of
Col. Clamp, the antipodean wood col
lector, Russia employed cabinetmaker
during the entire winter Of 1S77-7s at
making a library Of Russian woods,
which were classified and arranged for
the Russian exhibit at the Paris exposi-
ton of the year last named. AS with
the Cassel library, this Russian wood
collection showed the wood in its several
growths, as well as fruit, leaves and
seeds, either natural or initiated in wax.

With rumors that la grippe has ra.
newed its activity, and with reports that
cholera has secured a fast hold upon
eastern countries, hypochondriacs are not
now having a very comfortable time.
They ought, however, to be able to de-
rive some relief from the knowledge that
in communities where healthful climatic
and sanitary conditions prevail pestilence
in any form Is not much to be feared. In
this country we are, for the most part.
specially favored. Sections Of the south
are liable to yellow fever or cholera, but
other than that the United States has
every reason TO feel confidence in its i'm
munity from the terrible epidemics that
run riot elsewhere in the world The
vigilance of health boards and other au-
thorities is an additional element of
safstv.

BECOMING A sERIUs MATTER.

The objections of outsiders to Kansas
is that the people of the state are lawed to
death. In reading over the party plat
forms, county, district and state. of the
past two months, one would be led
TO conclude from the demands made for
new enactments that the present book of
compiled laws of Kansas is but a primer
in comparison to what it will be in the
near future. An assistant attorney gen
eral will be needed in each county and
at least three supreme courts, each pro-
vided with commission. The question
arises is all this acknowledging and ex-
pensive prosecutions the work of the peo-
pie themselves or do they come of the
hypocrisy and demagogy of political
leaders!

The most valuable part Of the alba

curled and elastic that the skin with the
plumage on ii is an inch or an inch and a
half thick. No finer material can be got
for muffs, cuffs, collarets, cspes or the
trimming or lining Of cloaks and robes.
1t is very light, yet exceedingly warm,
while for appearance Its dove like
smoothness and purity cannot be e1-
celled. 1t has the advantage, too. Of
being very durable, the natural oil II the

musky odor is easily overcome by cam

not only by its novelty but by its useful
ness. At the same time / hope il will
not be done, because II once the skin Of
the albatross acquired a commercial
value, and the ruthless hand Of fashion
were laid on its smooth, white neck. the

Senator Bentley, of Wichita, was a
member of the committee on resolutions.
The session of the committee lasted from
z until II o'clock last evening; a vigorous
protest was entered against the prohibit
ton plank in the platform. The protest
came from Sedgwick, Saline and several
other quarters. After some vigorous
discussion participated in by Mr.. Bentley,
Bond of Saline county, and others, the
resubmission plank introduced by Sena-
tor Bently was tabled. These gentlemen
did all they could to represent their con-
stituents who instructed them to work
and vote for a resubmisSion plank, but
the tide was all the other way and they
could not stem it. Being good Republi-
cans they will, of course, fall into line
with the policy of the party as outlined
in the platform.
