tial manner. upon the site of the ola
Spring Hotel in Newbury village, ana
will contain reading room, reference
library, and library for general clrcu'
lation. to be free to all the lnnapltants
of Newbury, under no more restrlc-
tons than are necessary for the care
and safe keeping of the books.
The conditions of this gift are, that
this building shall be called 1.-The Ten
ney Memorial Library" III memory OF
her father, the late Col. A, b w
Tennev, and that the town shall assume
the running expenses, and provide for
an insurance of not less than four
thousand dollars upon the building
and its contents.
Miss Tenney has made formal appli-
cation to the selec.men for their &C
ceptance of her gift in behalf of the
town.
But they cannot legally accept the
gift and assume the responsibility
without vote of the town, and it will
be necessary to call special town
meeting to act upon the proposal.
There should not be dissenting
voice upon the question of acceptance
The institution will be under the
control Of board of trustees, to repre-
sent the town, and the Village Library
Association. It is expected that the
present village library will become
part of the Tenney library.
The owners of the hotel lot will con-
vey to Miss Tenney as much of their
valuable site as will be needed for the
building and ample grounds, for the
consideration of one dollar. This act
of liberality on their part should be
seconded by equal public spirit on be-
half of the town.
The trustees will endeavor to make
the most convenient arrangement for
the benefit of people in the more dis
tant parts of the town that they may
avail themselves of the library with
the largest possible facility The
books will be especially designed for
those who read for instruction and not
for amusement.
The necessity for present action is
that the architect may prepare the
plans, and that the specifications may
be in the hands of the builder as soon
as NAV be.

Little Superxtitions.

II don't believe there is a man living
who is without his pet superstition, u
remarked a secondhand furniture man.
1--WE constantly have people who sell rs
articles of household use and come in
after few weeks-sometimes only days
and try to buy them back again, with
the explanation that they have had bad
luck ever since the sale was made and
never would have good luck again until
the bargain was undone.
Zone woman who had sold rs hel

cause it was gone before she could buy
it in again. This idea is not confined to
uneducated or ignorant people by any
means.
AT this very time I know Louis
Vile business man Of great culture and
refinement who is vigorously pursuing
an old wooden desk which he owned
many years ago-a desk ON which he
made an enormous amount of money by
q few lucky strokes of his pen. The
desk passed from hand to hand and out
of his possession. He is now earnestly
endeavoring to trace it and purchase it,
believing that recent business reverses
and hard times will flee away if he can
only stretch his legs once more under
that same old desk. '-Louisville COu.

Notes and Queries.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1895-04-30

The supreme court of the United
States will sit again May 6, in all
probability with a full bench, for the
purpose OF reconsidering the consti-
nationality of the income tax law.
Two counsel will be heard on each
side. What the result will be is diff
ficult to conjecture, but it is hoped
that a majority of the court may be
led to declare the law as q whole not
inconsistent with the constitution.
As the Freeport Bulletin argues, the
law is being opposed vigorously by
the rich people of the country only,
and on the pretext that it is class
legislation. On the same plea
class legislation-the poor people of
the country have had abundant rea-
son to feel aggrieved, for under the
republican rObber tariff 80 per cent
Of the expenses Of the government
were collected from persons owning
only 20 per cent of the wealth during
q period Of nearly 80 years. The
prayer Of every poor man should be
that the law will bear the scrutiny
Of the most rigid examination and
that it will ultimately be declared
constitutional.

Returning Prosperity.

The New York Tribune, one of the
most vociferous calamity howlers
during the campaign of last fall, has
changed its views since the repeal of
the Mckinley high tariff law and the
enactment Of the Wilson bill by the
democratic party. as will be seen by
the following clipping:
The general uplifting Of prices
continues. Cotton reaches 9 cents;
wheat rose above 81 cents Saturday;
Bessemer pig is quoted at $40 at
Pittsburg; leather and hides still ad-
vance. forcing manufacturers to ask
10 cents per pair more for shoes
instead Of q cents; coke is normally
higher, though it is claimed that
regular customers are supplied at
less than option quotations; oil has
mounted so wildly that sharp reduc-
tions for two days excite no surprise.
and stocks are mounting. the aver
age for railroads having risen $1.5O
the last week, and the average for
trusts having risen u cents. All
these are signs Of reviving conf
dence. and deserve attention none
the less for the apparently artificial
character of the advance in some
instances. If conditions favoring an
advance did not exist strong and
sagacious operators would not be
risking their money on that side in
SO many markets. Excess and
flightiness no doubt characterize the
rise in some articles and Give il n
fictitious look. but it is undeniable
that a much more hopeful feeling
prevails in nearly all quarters"
