The Association Of State Libraries has isS"ed

for the advancement of the common veal by

unwsely, by imposing ll-conSdcred rcStrlc-

the leading State Librarians Of the country
formed this association. Their objects were,
as they themselves state them TO promote in
the public mind an appreciation of the proper

uniform laws in the different States for library
government and for the exchange of public
documents. 1t needs no argument TO prove

The singing Of 1.-The Iiuguenot,' In German by ths

How much sincerity there is among the Dem
ocratic members OF the NewJersey Legislature
in their alleged eagerneSS for ballot reform Is
made plain by their action yesterday regarding
bill which rules out the officials who super
yised the last election in Jersey City, and pro-
vides for the appointment OF nOn-parllSan
election boards for the April election The
effort to get this bill out Of the hands Oh the
committee where il has been buried was de-
feated by a solid array OF Democratic votes.
Every one of these votes was a vote In favor OF
the dishonest election methods in Hudson coun-
ty. which have lately been so eifectually eX-
posed.
The Two Dollar-a-Day bill, with the merits
OR. rather. the conspicuous dcmcrits-of which
/ TRIBUNE readers are perfectly familiar, was
the leading subject under discussion i'll the
Assembly Yesterday, and vote was reached
which furnishes good ground for hoping Tor the
,epeal of the obnoxious statute. As might be
expected, il was the Republicans who with a
few exceptions stood up in favor of repeating
a law which has taken 100000 from the
pockets of the taxpayers for no good purpose
while the Democrats almost TO man favored
continuing the policy Of extravaganza The
decisive vote was 53 to Al; six Democrats
voted with the majority and six Republicans
with the minority. Our Albany correspondent
reports that several Republicans refused to vote
mt all. When their constituents ask why, they
may find it difficult to make satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION.
Commissioner Giroy is altogether in the
right in reiterating in the most emphatic man
ner that, after new pavements have been laid
he will refuse to grant permits for opening the
streets on any pretext whatever. This is q
y commendable resolution in every way, and
ought to be adhered to infexibly. There is nc
reason why those who are contemplating sub
way work cannot arrange to do this in advance
of the laying of new pavements, which shoult
not be disturbed for at least five years afte
being put down. Public sentiment would no
be far astray if it should rise to the point o

Notes About Austrian Women

Aloys;t kirschner, or Schubin, unde.
which pseudonym she is known the world
over, is the best of living Austrian female
authors She is still young, but of a seri-
Gus disposition. She has seen much of the
world, Her writings, too, show great pen,
ctration and profound study Of the human
mind. Although original in her concep-
tions, she has adopted the style ana man
ncrs of Turgenieif ana the modern French
school. Her clearly cut features denote ut
once force and delicacy, and her whole ap-
pearancc is most attractive.
Philippine Wclser was not only a woman
of intellect, but she also devoted her
self to the noblest task OF wife-to be a
good mother and n good housckeepcr. She
even wrote Il book about cooking, "De re
coluinaria," which still exists.
It is hard to tell whether Austrian ladies'
now arc as experienced in the Kitchen
as they are in the drawing room. II
judged by the empress of Austria they
are, for that lady combines many acquire
mcnts in her person, even fencing and
acrobatics. But tho fact that they live In
an era in which the most exquisite dishes
will sooE become question Of mere chem
ical preparation may excuse and absolye
them fully if they are not.

Peanuts and the aIelodrau,

have sometimes thought that the de-
cline Of the melodrama here in Boston has
been due to the diminished influence of the
peanut in theatrical affairs. There was Il
certain inspiring influence exucted by this
edible which is wanting in the demonstra-
tons Of the theatre gocrs of today. 1t in
duced a contemplative attitude which was
favorable to the success of plays in which
the moral sentiments were appealed to to
counteract the effect of the situations.
The dropping of peanut shells accentuated,
so to speak, the applause which followed
the mouthing of uneyceptionable bits of
morality that served as n mnkeweight for
actions which had Il decidedly vicious if
not criminal tendency.
One misses i'll the gallerics--t4e pit alas,
has vanished from our thcatres-thc class
of patrons that gave peculiar Zest to the
lneloarama, which WAS coincident with the
reign of the peanut. There was certain
affinity between these old time theatre
soers and the plays which We're provided
for their dclcctation that accounted for the
success Of Il sort Of drama that it would
he impossible to revive today The de-
lightful unconsciousness OF conventional
propricty which was indicated by the con
sumption of peanuts and the dispersion of
their shells within the dramatic temple
was matched by the contiding reliance lly
theatrical managers upon vivid sentiments
and vigorous action, instead of upon SEN
sational mechanical effects, to win the ia
vor of an audicnce.-Boston Post.

in their far off Iuuian home. Everywhere
thcy became the fashion rs the years went
by, In the days of his power and supren-
ucy Cardinal Wolsey used an orange as a

priest at his palace of Whitehall to secure
his favor or appease his wrath and he, so
the old chronicle runs, would enter the
crowded audience chamber "lolding in his
hasid very fair orange, whereof the meat
or substance within was taken out and
filled up again with tho part of u sponge,
wherein WIS vinegar and other confec
