Capitol Officials Promise to Put
Up II Good Show.

After reconSidering the matter
further, the manager of the tracks at
kittsondale has decided TO allow the
officials at the state capitol to use that
course for the races of their horses.
This track had been originally selected,
but the manager decided at first not to
allow the races there. 1t is safe to
assume that these races will secure il
large %attendance,a as they are convenient

NOTHING TO WEAR,

The general desire expressed to see the

in some way uniforms can be at least in
part provided. Of course the engines and
other apparatus of the department. will
be in line, but the $50 fire-fghters of
Portland will not be. A meeting of the
captains and other leading mem bers of
the department was held this week, and
the matter was fully discussed. When
the department made it's last public
appearance several years ago, the citizens
contributed towards the cost of the
uniforms, and in nearly every case por-
tion of the unifom is in the possessi on
of the men. 1t was thought tn at about
all that would be absolutely necessary
would be coats, the mensin most cases
having caps. 1t has been suggested that
the men of the department should be
provided with a parade uniform. 1t is
needless to say that they are paid too
little for their valuable services to make
it reasonable to expect them to go to the
expense of such uniform as the well
paid fire departments of other cities have
for dress parade use, and the officers are
not without hope that the citizens gen.

1T is suggestive truth that the good
men do in this world lives after they have
| left it. A good deal does not die.
"Our meeting on this occasion is evident
to the act. We have assembled to lay the
corner stone to an edifice for public
library, devoted to the public good, where
the rich treasury of learning of all ages of
the world in history. biography, poetry.
science, general literature and fiction are
to be governed, preserved and made
available to public use for the full enjoy
ment of every citizen. We owe this privilege
to the public spirit of Llewellyn W. Lithgow

membrance by the countless beneficiaries of
his useful and wise beuuest, of the present
and future generations.
ssThe library was founded by him and it
appropriately bears his name, while liberal
and essential aid has been received from
others which is thankfully appreciated.
"Mr. Lithgow was q native of Maine, of a
family distinguished in it's early history,
He was born in the town of Dresden,
where he lived and remained in business
until 1889, when he removed to Augusta,
where he resided for more than forty years
valued and respected citizen until his
death, June %, 1881.
by his will dated January q, 1881, proved
and established by the court of probate
July IS. 1881, he gave to the city of Augusta
100000 in trust for creating a fund to be
known as 1.-The Lithgow Library and read
ing room fund.-" the interest of which is to
be used in establishing and maintaining a
public library in the city of Augusta. He
further provided that the principal must
never be diminished and If in any contin-
gency it shall be reduced, the city must
make it good.
"The city has accepted the trust, received
the $4,000 and given the obligation to pay
to the trustees of the library, perpetually,
$1,000 per annum. The permancy of the
library is thus secured. In addition to this
specific bequest Mr.. Lithgow, in the
residuary clause of his will, provided that
after paying all his specific requests, Au-
gusta and Dresden shall be his residuary
legatees. Under this residuary sclause the
library received about $4,000 some years
ago.

existed prior to organization had q
valuable selection of books costing over
S25OO, the sale OF which was ordered as the
association was running in debt, but
arrested by some personal sacrifice, and the
whole library, making material addition,
was transferred to ours at cost of few
hundred dollars.
ut has been the effort of the trustees to
provide notmerely bookssof fiction which are
in great demand from the younger patrons
of the library, but largely books of more
instructive character, designed to interest
the general reader, to develop a higher
standard of taste, and gradually as our
funds will admit, place on our shelves the
books of the best authors in every depart
ment of learning.
1.-TWO or three years ago there was a strong
feeling in favor OF the erection of a library
building; but after the payment for the lot
the funds applicable to that purpose were
much too small to meet the cost of suit
able one. In this exigency the trustees
made frequent appeals for aid and enough
was secured to bring the building fund up
to $4,000, including in it the balance from
the Lithgow estate under the residuary
clause. The library corporation now has
solid standing: Permanent fund. $40, coo;
general and building fund, $4,000 and a
library of over 5000 books. We now have the
nucleus of good public library. 1t has been
my hope that we could save enough from
the general fund to meet with the amount
received from the takers of books sour
current expenses, and thus leave the whole
| of the $1,000 to be expended in the purchase

have sometimes thought it is permitted
to those who have left us for the life beyond
to know what is transpiring here, land If our
friend, Mr.. Lithgow, could look into the
library room some afternoon and see the
groups Of young persons sitting around the
tables fntently perusing the books in the
earnest pursuit of knowledge. and the
crowd that press around the librarian for
books to take home and read, it could not
fail to fill his heart with joy to see that his
influence for good still lives.
From the library the procession and the
people proceeded to the site of the Masonic
