P. D. Moore, present librarian, has been
circulating petition for re-appointment
by Governor McGraw. Without wishing
to cast any reflections on this gentleman,
we hope, if he be appointed. that he will
change his conduct very greatly while in
the library. 1t is fact known BY all who
are forced to study there, that his loud talk
and constant noisy discussions carried on
With any one he can find who will argue
with him, interrupts everybody, until you
might as well not try. We hope the gov

TWO hours day, anyway. l am too poor

be compelled to do less talking 1t might

ALVIN LENT DEAD.

Alvin Lent died shortly after 6 O'Clock
this morning at his home on Third street,
between Puget and Tullis streets, after a
lingering illness of over two months dura-
He was first taken down with an obstruc-
ton in his bowels, and from this source
arose complications that ended in his
death. His constitution had already been
weakened by the habitual use of morphine,
and during his illness it was necessary to
use morphine injections almost constantly.
The remains are badly wasted. Lent was
known as the manager of the Olympia
Trading company, and Just before he was
taken sick he closed out his business at a
reduced sale. He was especially promi-
nent in the search for the body of Observer
r. B. Olney when Olney disappeared and
was supposed to have been drowned in the
bay. Lent leaves wife but no children.
His life was insured for So, 900 in the Pacif-
ic Mutual Life Insurance company. He
was member of the EIks, Knights of
Pythias and had taken the second degree
in masonry.
Lent was Al Years of age abd has followed
clerical line of work most of his life. The
remains will be sent to Missoula, Mont,
tomorrow afternoon for interment. Mr..
Lent's parents live at Missoula.

feathers and a crown very artistically
mounted upon pin. This is one of the
latest designs in the jewelry art. This

Nothing Wasted.

In Paris nothing is wasted not the
smallest scrap OF paper; that which
every one else throws away here be-
comes a scource OF profit. Old pro-
vision tins, for instance, are full Of
money; the lead soldering is removed
and melted down into cakes, while
the tin goes to make children's
toys. Old boots, however bad, al
ways contain in the arch of the foot
at least one sound piece that will
serve again, and generally there are
two or three others in the sole, the
heel and at the backs. Scraps of
paper 20 to the cardboard factory,
orange peel to the marmalade maker,
and so on. The id"as suggested are
not always agreeable, and to see q
rag-picker fishing orange peel tout Of
the basket is enough to make one

worse than that. The most valuable
refuse-that which fetches two francs
the kilo--is hair; the long goes to the
hairdresser, while the short is used
