THE NEwBERRY LIBRARY.

tate for the founding of public library
to be located in the north division of
Chicago, and more recently Mr.. Crerar
bequeathed a goodly portion of his
wealth for the establishment of SINH
lar institution in the south division.
The city of Chicago has public library
second to but few in the country, and it
is a source of great pride to the IL
brarian and western people in general
that the circulating branch of this mu-
nicipal enterprise enjoys larger popu-
larity than any similar institution in
the United States. The new Chicago
university has, as everybody knows, re-
Gently purchased CHOICE collection Of
books, pamphlets and manuscripts in
Berlin; and the Northwestern UNIVERSE
ty at Evanston, a suburb of Chicago,
has for many years been gathering the
nucleus for college library which, in
time, under the able direction of some
of the foremost American bibliophiles,
promises to be the rarest and most COM
plete on the continent.
The Newberry library, to which ref
erence has been made, will, when COM
pleted, be the most perfect library build
ing in existence. When Mr.. New berry
died twenty-four years ago, he provided
for the erection of suitable building
and the purchase of books but his will
was so worded that the trustees could
not spend any money until after the
death of his widow, which occurred late
in 1885. Since that time some books have
been purchased-S5 900 books and IS, 600
pamphlets at an estimated expense OF
$242, 000-but very little has been done to
push the library building to completion.
The newspapers of the city have lately
agitated the matter. and the trustees
appointed under the will have at last
shown a willingness to comply with
the wishes of the public. which, it is
hardly necessary to say, clamors for the
rapid completion of the building.
Work on one of the sections of
the library is carried on as rapid
ly as the nature of the massive con-
struction will permit This section,
which was planned by Henry Ives
Cobb, will, when completed, be four
stories in height with frontage of 800
feet on Walton place and extend back
on North Clark street and Dearborn
avenue rs feet. The material to be en-
ployed is rough-faced red New Hamp-
shire granite. The front of the library
will be severely plain, the only orna-
mental feature being triple-arched
front arch. Above the arches the stone
will be mass of delicate carving.
The interior arrangement will be as
near perfect as possible. The base
nent will be devoted to book-binding,
the machinery, boilers, engine, lumber
rooms and the bedrooms of the janitor
and his assistants. The first floor will
contain an auditorium with seating
capacity of 600, two large administra-
ton rooms, a museum and offices.
The second and third floors will be
given up to fourteen large reading
rooms and fourteen small studies,
which are to be lighted by large plate
glass windows and will occupy about
81 200 square feet of floor space. The

To girls with slender allowances any
sudden emergency in dress occurring
just when they have supplied them
selves with stock of garments for the
coming season is often extremely en-
barrassing, and | wonder that no one
starts a provident dress society, to
which members would subscribe a
small sum annually, and which would
make grants out of its funds on such
occasions as having to go into mourn
ing; to go unexpectedly into climate
requiring quite different sort Of cloth
ing; to act as bridemaid, and in some
cases of marriage, when the relations
are unable to provide any outfit, also
in the event of a member being sud-
denly called to enter upon any new
position requiring an immediate outlay
in dress. Such a society, well and
honorably conducted, would be a help to

The committee appointed to award
the prize says of Mr.. Coolidge's plans.
The building proposed by Mr.. Coolidge
affords the greatest amount of light to
the interior; it is simple and economic
in construction; it is dignifed and inn
posing in style and happily indicates
the character and purposes of the
structure"
Lovers of good books the world over
will congratulate Chicago upon its
bright prospects and will be pleased to
know that this western city is the first
to undertake the erection of two hre-
proof library buildings at the same
time. When the Crerar library is added
to these structures-and that will be in
the near future-this city, once despised
by literary men and viewed with scorn
by eastern scholars, will have verita-
BILE treasure of precious books and
manuscripts and will become the Mecca
of students in every branch of science.

The means at the disposal of the
trustees Of the Newberry library are
enormous. When the division of prop.
erty was made, according to the wishes
of the testator, the library share
amounted to s., 149, 201. Instead of be-
ginning building operations without de-
lay, the trustees appointed a librarian
and rented small building for the stor
age of such books as might be picked
up by DR.. Poole and his assistants, C. A.
Nelson, formerly librarian of the Astor
library, and DR.. Carl Pietsch, the we'll.
known German philologist. Now, how

The Chicago public library, now To-
Gated in the city hall building, is, as has
already been indicated, one of the popu-
lar institutions of this great city. 1t has
for years been patronized by the repre-
sentatives of all classes and conditions
of citizens: by Americans, Germans,
lrishmen, Frenchmen, Italians, Rus
slams. Danes, Swedes, Norwegians,
Poles, Bohemians, Spaniards. Turks,
Hungarians and Japanese. know of
no more interesting place than the
lobby of the public library. Men born
under every European flag and speaking
all the languages and dialects of the
continent can be seen every day and
evening examining reference books or
borrowing standard works of fiction for
home reading. The management has
aimed to keep pace with the demand
made upon the circulating depart
ment of the library, and thousands OF
volumes have been added annually to
the original choice collection.
The want of more room at last be-
came so apparent that prize was
offered for the best plan for library
building, and this prize has recently
been awarded to Mr.. Charles A. Cool
idge, a Boston architect. The new
library is to be erected in Dearborn
park, near the business center of the
city, and will cost $1,000 exclusive
of machinery and fixtures. From the
specifications accompanying the draw
ings it is learned that the building will
be of the Roman classic style of archi-
lecture. An imposing arch, suggested
by the famous arch of Titus, is to grace
the main entrance. The exterior will
be built Of finely dressed blue Bedford

rooms and studies. The entire building
is, of course, to be lighted by electric
ity and heated by hot water. The cost
of the section of the library here de-
scribed will, according to the estimate
of the architect, exceed $500, 900.
Eventually additions will be made to
this building.
DR.. William F. Poole, who was for
many years director of the city's public
library, has complete charge of the
Newberry institution, and to him more
than to any other influence is due the
decision of the trustees establishing an
exclusively reference library, modelled

1t is not common thing for one city
to contain a number of libraries, each
extensive enough to attract the atten-
ton of bookworms and students in
every part Of the country. But, as has
been remarked before in this CORE

halves, and her enterprising and
wealthy citizens provide even in death
means to extend her fame and glory
