Mr.. EDITOR The turkey supper

was quite a success. 96tbs.. OF
turkey, supplemented with Z
chickens and all the good things
which go to make up first class
supper, were disposed of in short
order, and everyone had an enjoy
able time.
Bro. Finnyfrock had a mishap
while enroute to the supper. About
a quarter of a mile south of Rock
Springs large dog jumped in the
road and frightened his horse,
causing the sleigh to upset, throw
ing the Bro. and his wife out and
dragging them quite distance. 1t
might have been a serious accident
had not a friend been near and
fastened to the rescue.
Another mishap occurred after
the supper. Miss Ella Jones and
her escort had an upset while cross
ing the run at Five Points. The
result was a SKINNED nose for
Miss Ella. This crossing is very
dangerous and should be bridged.
On Monday afternoon Dec. 31st,
while Chas. Maxwell was away

neighbors noticed smoke issuing

notified and repaired to the house

door they entered and after tearing
up a section of flooring succeeded
in extinguishing the flames before
much damage had been done other
than searching some bedding. An
overheated stove was the cause of
the conflagation.

AT TIL. LIBRARY.
Why OvercOats, Bundles and Wraps
Are I}0rred.


Are Bn rred.
One of the most rigidly enforced rules in
the Newberry library is: mo Overcoats,
bundles outside wraps can be worn or
carried upstairs says the Chicago Record.
Just at the left of the entrance Is a
large check room where bundles. wraps
and coats can be checked. Even casual
visitors must remove their overcoats and
have them checked with their hats and
bundles before they can examine the beau
tiful building.
Some persons who do not understand the
reasons for this rule have become indig-
nant when the man at the foot of the
stairs quietly and firmly insists that over
coats hats and bundles must be checked.
In the Newberry library are thousands OF
rare and costly books. Admission is free.
No one is barred from the pleasure Of the
greatest reference library in the country.
But men and women who are profess
sional book thieves nfest libraries. 1t is
an easy matter for them to slip a rare
volume under an overcoat or wrap, stick
it in a pocket or hide it inside paper
covered bundle Librarians know these
tricks, and the librarian of the Newberry
library, to guard his books, compels pat
rons to check their overcoats and bundles.
The young women in charge of the check
room are gOwned in black, all Of
the young women employed in the library.
They attend the check room in turn.
Whether they are afraid Of contagion or
plain Chicago dirt is not in evidence, but
before the young woman in charge is
fairly ready for the day she slips a large
easy glove on her left hand The mate
lies on the table and before she takes the
proffered coat she slips her hand in the
right glove and then places the coat in a
cubby hole. After she has given the owner
of the coat his check she returns TO her
table removes the right hand glove and
resumes her reading.
