the physicians that nothing could be
done for him, and yesterday he was
conveyed to his home once more.
He began to sink rapidly, and at 0
O'Clock last evening it was evident that
the end was fast approaching. Mrs.
Banks, with the generals daughter,
Maud, and his niece, Miss Sybil Banks,
were at his bedside constantly until
his death. About midnight the
general became Gaconsci0uS, and

Estimates of the actual length of the
cave vary. There is no doubt that III

| Hon. Blanche X. Bruce, eX-United
States senator from Mississippi, aud eX-
register Of the treasury, took a cOnserv-
ative view of the work of the lynchers
in Tennessee. Though. he expressed
astOnishment at the brutality of the
action, and deplored its damaging
effects to the South. he at first declined
to discuss the affair, but hnally said:
ut is certainly all appalling affair.
and | earnestly hope that the good citi-
zens OF the county in which it occurred
will not rest until the perpetrators Of
this crime have been brought to justice.
The effect of the lamentabe occurrence

good that is being done by
the Southern Development association,
which has just closed its session here.
This will be accomplished by prevent

The drought is without precedent.
Farmers mourn the loss of crops, and
fear havoc by fire and starvation of

''To Kalamazoo"

Yes"
Then he asked several dozen more
questions, and the drummer got tired.
Il s'pose you went to the Worlds

new deal.
"The Worlds fair?' repeated the
drummer questionaly. "What's that?'
"Don you know what the Worlds
far is:?" exclaimed the rustic in open
eyed astonishment.
"No, [ never heard of it."
Never heard of the Worlds fair at

"Never. Where is Chicago?"

"Betore Congress came to Washington
it had access for time to the books in
the Loganian Library in PHILADELPHIA.
The little city contained number of
scholars and there was not much trou-
bic in getting information. When the
Capital WAS moved to Washington, how
ever, Congress found itself in the woods
and there were no books of reference
or general libraries. When Jefferson
became President, the library was first
established and an appropriation Of
$1,000 year was devoted to il. In
1911 we had here about 8 600 volumes.
Then the British came and burned the
Capitol and the books went upin smoke
4 short time after this President JEFF
terson, who had gotten into financial
straits at Monticello, offered his library
for sale to Congres. He had, all told,
between six and seven thousand vol
umes, many Of which were valuable
and rare. Congress paid him $23,
for them, which was, it is said, just a.
bout half what they cost him, and they
were hauled in wagons from Monticello
to Washington. Parton, Jef1erson's 5
biographer, says they made sixteen
wagon loads Of books, and that Jeffer-
son was very sorry to lose them. In
1851 the library had increased to 55,-
600 volumes. Then another fire &C.
Cured and $4,000 Of these were burn
ed, including many Of the most valu-
able. The fire took place from defec-
tive flues, and only 10000 volumes
were saved from the ruins. By this
time Congress thoroughly appreciated
the need of a good library, and the
year fol owing $4,000 We're appropri-
ated for new books, and the appropria-
tions have gone on from that time to
this until We now have $4,000 vol
umes and 100000 phampiets. Last
year we added about $4,000 volumes to
the library and the copywrtes or now
increasing our stock at the rate of
$4,000 and upward per year.
The new library viii be one of the
| finest libraries Of the world, and it will
be as perfect as modern inyen'ioG and
| modern science can make it. The
| three great enemies Of books are dust,
heat and mois ure. As to beat and fire
We have prevented this by putting the
heating arrangements away from the
main structure, and there will be no
possible chance for anything to catch
| fire. There will be nothing in the
building that would burn except the
books, and | hope TO have the heat so
arranged that the whole building Will
never be at Il higher temperature than
GS. The windows are so fixed that the
bullding will be dust proof. It is stu
at-d in a park and surrounded by
streets which are not much used. The
windows save those of the top, will
never be opened and it will be one of
the cleanest bui dings in the word. As
to moisture we vert down fifty feet to
get the foundation in order that there
might be no dampness connected with
them, and our heating arrangem ents
are such that there will be no possible
danger from dampness. Another great
advantage will be having the vast a
mount Of work under one roof. As it
is now we send valuable books from
here TO the government printing office
to be bound. The dan ger of loss Is in
many ways great. and tremble when
| let them go."-Home JoHrnak.

WHEN FATHER CARyES THE DUCK.

We all look on with anxious eyes,
When f tier carves the duck;
Aud mother almost always signs,
" hen father carves the duck;
Then all OF us prepare TO rise,
And h, III our bbs before our eyes,
And be prepared for some surprise,
When father carves the duck.
He braces up and grabs fork,
Whene'er he carves duck,
And won't allow soul to talk,
Until he's carved the duck.
The fork is ,bbed into the sides,
Across the breast the knife he slides,
While every careful person hides.
From flying chips of duck.
The platter's always sure to slip
When father carves duck;
And how it makes The dishes skip,
Potatoes fly amuck.
The squash and cabbage leap i'll pace,
We set some gravy in our face;
And father mutters hindoo grace
Whene'er he caIyes a duck.
We then have learned 10 walk around
The dining room and pIuck
From oil the window -sills and walls
Oar share of fathers euck,
While father growls and blows and JAWS,
And swears the knife was full OF flaws,
And mothe, jeers at him because
He couldn't carve a duck.
