The Public Librarian Needs to Be Active
and PNshtng as q Buniness Man.
The usefulness of public library to a CON-
munity is not measured by books and build
ing but by the ability OF its librarian and the
number OF its readers. Put good librarian
in a roomy shed with few thousand books,
says the Philadelphia Press, and he Will do
more for city and its real education than a
man who is not both an able and trained
librarian with half million books and
building which costs $l000,000, or, as in
Boston, four times the value OF the books 1T
houses A great public library today is sim
ply terminal facilities and distributing sta
ton for literature. The business of being a
librarian has to be learned just as much as
the business of being railroad man, and to
people in libraries the best librarians are
just as well known as the best railroad men
are to people about railroad Offices. good
librarian OF the first rank can get $4,000 a
at the price-a good deal cheaper than poor
man at $1,000. No man really equal to man
aging library with an income OF $50, 900 or
$40 900 year can be got for less than $4,000
or $4,000 though men can be had cheaper, and
cheap management, always the dearest, will
be the result.
librarian today is not man who can talk
about various kinds OF books in an interesting
way, or who can catalogue books, or who for
years has always been at odd library jobs, or
even is interested in miterature," and thinks
that his general knowledge OF books fits him
for the work of librarian. The new librarian
Is as active and pushing as any business man;
he studies city like a retail dry goods man;
he sees what people are going to read and he
uses the knowledge to turn them to what they
ought to read. He cassifes and catalogues
and arranges and distributes his store of 100,-
900 or 500, 600 books so that the rare books
which some specialist wants to see once in ten
years can be got just as easily and as quickly
as the novel which every one wants and of
which the library has to have 80 copies. Such
a librarian knows what schools are studying
aud he puts books in the way OF the pupils.
He knows what is going on and the delivery
desk is always ready with an answer to anv
question about the books or any subject up for
talk. lie is alive to the finger tips and he
makes all his books live. No big auction of
book rarities worth their weight in bank notes
which takes place from Berlin to San Fran
cisco passes without his getting what the
library needs and no ragged boy strays into
the public library wondering what it is like
but finds himself, he does not know quite how,
seated and reading an interesting book.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 27.-Old Boreas was on the
rampage today and all traffic between this
city and San Francisco, by way OF Dayisville,
was suspended in the afternoon owing the i'm
mense quantity of tule and other debris that,
driven by the high wind from the great basin,
has covered the track Tor miles to the depth
of four feet.
In the vicinity OF the sheep camp, some four
miles west of Washington, the water was dash
ing in sheets of spray over the roadbed, often
being thrown to the height OF IL feet in the
air. Until the track can be cleared OF the tules.
passenger trains will be moved by the way of
Stockton. The railroad company sent out a
force OF workmen today to clear the track, but
owing to the sheets of water that were driven
across the railroad gIade by the gale, they
could do nothing.
There is peri ct ocean OF water north and
south OF the grade and it was covered with
white caps and big waves that dashed with
great violence against the narrow strip of
roadway running through it. The roadbed is
very solid, or it could not have withstood the
terrific onslaught OF the waves Workmen
who were out there say the sight was grand
one. Driven by the gale from the north, the
great waves would dash against the rock
ribbed railroad grade, sending binding
sheets of water high into the air and over
the track. The men were drenched to the
skin, and, being unable 10 accomplish any
thing, were called back to the city. When the
wind subsidies the tules and other debris will
be removed and traffic by that route re.
sumed.
The river rose today to 90 feet inches The
rise was due to the driving of the water out OF
the overflow by the heavy north wind. The
levee has been somewhat weakened in the
vicinity of what is known as the Chicory
ranch, ON the Yolo side OF thu river, few
miles below Washington, and men are at work

From tho 'song OF tho BatDOa sea-
Grew once d rose within my room,
OF perfect hue, of perfect health
OF such perfection and perfume
II filed my poor house with its wealth.
Then came the pessimist who knew
Not good or grace, but overthrow
NV rose, and in the broken pot
Nosed fast for slugs within the rot
lie found, found with exultant pride,
Deap in the loan, worm, slug,
The while my rose tree died.
All. mel the pity IT'S It's true,
The fairest rose, the richest mould
The richer mould the ranker grew
Some lonely life within its fold
From first to last. Wouldst breathe the rose,
Or break the pot, and nose, and nose?
Nay, plead not for self at last;
The past have survived the past
My ruined rose, my wrecked repose;
But plead for that coming song,
The sweeter, fairer rose.
God is not far, man is not far
From heavens porch, where paans roll
And yet shall speak from star to star
In silent language from the soul.
Yon star strewn skies be but q town,
With angels passing up and down.

His seven wounds, the pleiades
Pierce heavens porch. But resting there
The new moon rocks the Child Christ in
Her silver rocking chair.
