VASsAR'S NEW LIBRARY.

A Model Institution That Is Conducted In
a Model Style.
The new library of Vassar college, called
the Thompson annex library, is as unique
among college libraries as Tassar is among
collegiate institutions. 1t is not poked
away in the darkest corner of a musty old
quadrangle, nor relegated to the most mac
cessible and worst lighted rooms in some
building intended for other uses. Neither
is it erected in grim solitude apart across a
campus that is either slushy, muddy or
dusty enough to forbid a visit according to
the season of the year. 1t is built in the
most prominent position possible, just as If
the college were proud of it, right in front
Of the main building, of which it forms an
imposing central pavilion.

The building is four stories high, of brick
and graystone, and beneath the front end
a stone porte cochere forms a much more
imposing entrance than the old fight of
stone steps that formerly served the same
purpose, A wide entrance hall opens from
the porte cochere, and from it two wide
stairways of notified Vermont marble, with
balustrades of gray and black marble, lead
mp to a loggia on the second floor. On the
right is the entrance to the main corridor of
the college and on the left the door of the
library. AT the other end of the room,
directly opposite the entrance, is a large
brick fireplace with heavy andirons, and
overhead a deep recess and a narrow win
dow through which a view of tbs noun
tains can be obtained.
The effect upon the visitor who enters the
library for the first time is surprise at the

Where the Presidents Family VIII Live
During tao Summer.
There is a pretty story about Bclvoir, the
house in the suburbs Of the national capt
tai which President Cleveland has leased
for his summer home. 1t is an old fash
Toned mansion, built away back in the last
century, and the story, goes that Washing
ton once stooduponi its steps and remarked
that the capitol should either be built
upon that spot or upon the spoS that was
afterward chosen. General Winfield Scott
selected the place as the site for the Sol
diers' Home, but it was not taken because
no agreement could be arrived at with the
owner. 1t was once the joint property of
Philip Barton Key and John Platter, who
were brothers-in-law, and Francis Scott
Key, author of the 'Saar Spangled Ban
ner,' spent most of his boyhood and youth
there. His name is scratched on of the
window panes in the front hall.

THE POLITICAL DEPARTMENT.

A Unique Position In the Reading Railroad
Resigned by John Russell Young.
1t was a peculiar position that John Rus
sell Young recently vacated when he re-
signed the fifth vice presidency of the Read
ing railroad. The position was created for
him about a year ago by President Mcleod,
whose administration of Reading was then
on the up grade, and that gentleman al
ways magnified the Importance of what he
called the political department" of the
road. He and Mr.. Young were warm per-
sonal friends, and the fifth vice president
was probably nearer to him than any other
of his official advisers.

The reader Of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation Of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors have
so much faith in its curative powers, that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list Of

THEY WILL BLOSSOM LIKE THE ROSE.
The sage Brush Land OF Yakima
Being Changed Into n Garden OF
Eden-keiso,s big Farm.

Walla Walla Union Journal: 1.-THE
exhilarating influence Of the boom has
full possession Of Kennewick and the
country in its vicinity, said w. A. Kelso,
OF Yakima, to Union representative
Friday. THE land around Kennewick
on the line OF the canal is selling readily
at $50 per acre. Two years ago u man
had settled on piece Of that land he
would have been advised to emigrate to
Steilacoom or Medical Lake. Water
makes nil the difference. The people re-
siding in the district bounded by the
canal are putting in the crops, some set
ting out orchards, others seeding their
land to alfalfa, potatoes or oats. Water
is now running in the ditch, and the set
tiers do not apprehend any scarcity Of
water during the summer--at least not
this summer. The company owning the
canal have submitted a proposition to the
district to sell them the canal tor the sum
Of s240, 600 and float the bonds for the
district, or s2l6, 900 and the district float
its own bonds. These propositions will
be voted on by the district residents to-
morrow. As there are about IL 900 acres
Of land in the district the annual interest
on the bonds, say at six per cent, will be
81. 20 per acre, but the district will be
able to reduce the expenses Of maintain
ing the ditch, which is now 81 per acre,
about one-half. The sentiment of the
community seems to be in favor of the
purchase of the canal"
Mr.. Kelso also has about 1000 acres in
wheat on his Horse Heaven ranch, which,
he says, is very promising. One great
difficulty in farming that country, the
scarcity OF water, will be avoided this
year, as the springs which usually go dry
in the summer, give evidence OF yielding
bountiful supply through the dry sea-
son owing to the rains which have been
very heavy this spring.

AWlSHNGTox CITIZEN AMONG PHILISryES
Or. Jameson OF This state Gees TO
Getha m and Celebrates the Col.
umbian Anniversary.

New York Herald: NJ. L. Jameson, NJ.
d., is or was a good looking and evidently
prosperous middle aged citizen of the
State Of Washington. When he arrived
10 this city last week from his native
western state his step was light and
elastic, his appearance was natty and al
together he looked like a well to do man
Of the world. His baggage included q
self.acting six chamber revolver. He
came here to witness the naval review
and take part in the attendant festivities.
The Doctor looked yesterday as il he
had been dragged all the way from his
home in the far west behind freight
train. His hair was unkempt, his cloth.
ing soiled and torn and his appearance
generally unprepossessing.
As far as the police are able to deter
mine it all came about through the
Doctors intimacy with an acquaintance
whom he started in to cultivate while on
his way to this city.
The Doctor was so assiduous in his at
tentions that he took this acquaintance
about with him wherever he went. The
acquaintance was carried in the Doctors
coat pocket 10 black bottle labelled "Old
Rye"
The Doctor saw the review, the flash
lights and the parade. Then, early on
Friday evening, he started out with the
evident intention Of doing some celebrat-
ing on his own account. lie arrived at
Sixteenth street and Fourth avenue at
balf-past one O'Clock yesterday morning
"Thish ish grea country" he remarked.
"Rah for C'lumbush. Fire s'lute twenty
one guns f'r C'lumbush."
Bang! bang! went the Doctors pis-
toll as he rushed down the street. A
policeman heard the fusillade and started
after the physician. Before the police
man reached him the Doctor had col.
lapsed.
He fell unconscious on the stoop OF No.
1903 East Sixteenth street. The police
man summoned an ambulance, in which
the Doctor was conveyed a prisoner to
Bellevue Hospital, where he was placed
under treatment for alcoholism.
The Doctor recovered sufficiently yes
terday morning to say that while travel
ling east from his native state he had fall
len among thieves on the train near
Columbus, Ohio. They chloroformed
and robbed him, but he managed to make
his escape to this city.
He met stranger on Friday night, he
said, who induced him to enter saloon
in University place. He took drink
there, but he knew at once that he had
been drugged. He then rushed out into
the street and began firing off his pistol
to attract attention.
Perhaps the Doctor will be able when
he has sufficiently recovered to convince
the police of the correctness OF his story.
The police and the hospital doctors, how
ever, have their doubts.

A wonderful Surgical Operation.

A story comes from London of won
derful surgical operation that promises to
be successful. Five years ago a workman
injured his right arm and a careless sur
geon so treated it that it withered and
became useless. Recently it was decided
to examine the arm, and it was accord
ingly opened and explored. The nerve
was found to be partially divided. Two
fresh ends were made and section Of
the sciatic nerve from live rabbit was
stitched in. The patient has now recov-
cred the power IN his arm, which is re-
gaining its original size, and he is follow
ing his former employment.
