An appeal for help has recently been
made by the Bodleian library at Ok
ford, which is the largest university
library in the world, and is surpassed
by only five national libraries, the
Bibliotheque rationale at Paris, the
British museum, the Imperial library
at ST. Petersburg, and the royal libra
ries at Munich and Berlin. 1t receives
for all purposes fortyfve thousand
dollars year, and needs money to sup
port its staff; touprepare its catalogue
which is now years behind the times;
to heat the portrait gallery; to repair
the building, the finest public ediice of
the time of James l., and to provide
shelves for books in the Ashmolean
museum, which has just been put at its
disposal. The Bodleian contains over
half million volumes, the separate
titles in the catalogue amounting to a
million and half; the new accessions
of books and pamphlets are nearly
sixty million year; it has the second
largest numismatic collection in the
British empire. Books and coins are
declared by the librarian to be in a
state of chaos owing to the lack OF
funds; the library needs at least
seventy-fve thousand to be kept eff
icient, and he calls on the public for
assistance, as Oxford, owing to the
agricultural depression, is too poor to
support its own library.

Los ANGELES PRESbYIERY
An Interesting Meeting in East
Los Angeles
EQUITY VS.. LEGAL RIGHT
Shall There Be Two Separate Church
Organizations !?
Number OF the nembers of the First
Presbyterian Church Of Los Angeles
Pray for Separation

A called meeting of the presbytery of
Los Angeles, comprising seventy-five
churches and eighty ministers. was held
yesterday afternoon at the Second Pres
byterian church. on Dowhey avenue. Ea st
Los Angeles. at which, considering that
it was called meeting only, a large rep
resentation was present. The meeting
was called to consider three propositions
the first of which was the dissolution of
the pastoral relationship of the Rev. W.
H. Macleod with the church at North On
tario; second, to recommend and act
upon the report of u committee appointed
to organize a Presbyterian church at On
tario; and. third, to consider the petition
of about $50 mem bers of the First Presby
terian church OF Los Angeles asking that
the said church be divided into two or
CARNATIONS. if the way be clear.
The last proposition was the one
around which the greatest interest gath
cred. To better understand the case it
may be stated that the property of the
First Presbyterian church, located at
Second street and Broadway, was recently
sold for the sum of $55, 600, and that it is
the intention of that church organization
to soon build at the corner of Figueroa
and Twentieth Streets Some three or
four hundred uf the church members
would be Inconvenience by attempting
to attend church so far from their
homes, hence the petition praying for a
separate organization and ultimately Il
church building nearer the center of the
city.
The Rev. J. H. Stewart of Redlands
acted as moderator.
The pastoral relationship Of the Rev.
Macleod with the church at North On
tario was dissolved by mutual and
friendly consent. A call was read from
the churc at Ontario asking for the
services of the Rev. Macleod, and this
was referred to the committee on home
missions. G. L. Day then presented the
petition of the $50 members of the First
Presbyterian church at Los Angeles,
praying for separation. The gentleman
backed up the petition with an earnest
talk, in which he urged favorable action
in the interest of the church. the choir
and central maintenance of the organi-
cation. Judge Mckinley replied, oppos-
ing the movement and the action tina
was asked of it, urging in support of his
opposition not feelings of the heart. but
legal difficulties. He thought that as the
church was an organization as well as a
religious order that a division could not
legally be effected at this stage of the
movement. The argument was closed for
the petitioners by the Rev. DR.. Hender-
son of Long Beach, who made strong
presentation of facts. The presbytery
then adjourned to meet at the same
place this morning at 8 O'Clock.

Double Duty.

A capital story was once told OF the
Rev. Thomas Hunt, the veteran temper
ance orator, who was we'll known IN the
early history Of the Wyoming valley.
He was a somewhat eccentric man, but
possessed of remarkably quick wits,
which stood him in good stead on many
occasions.
During the civil war he enlisted in
one of the regiments Of infantry raised
in the valley and served a chaplain.
One day in the very fercest of the bat
tie a major rode up in front of the regi-
ment, and seeing Father Hunt at the
head of the ranks inquired in great as
constituent:
Chaplain, what are you doing
there?'
What am / doing:' repeated the
stanch old minister quickly. I'm cheer,
ing the hearts of the brave and watch
ing the heels of the cowards!'
He was evidently performing this
double task so we'll and thoroughly that
the major could find no fault with him
and left him to his self appointed charge

BIG OCEAN WAVES.
Careful Data Show Them to He Not over
Thirty-twO Feet Zig

An article quoted in Current Litera-
ture gives this interesting information
on ocean waves. DR.. G. Schott, as the
result of studying the form and height
of the waves of the sea, claims that I'M
der a moderate breeze their velocity was
24.6 feet per second, or 1873 miles an
hour, which is about the speed of a mod
ern sailing vessel.
AS the wind rises the size and speed
their length rises to $50 feet and their
speed reaches SO or Sc. 4 feet per second.
Waves the period Of which is nine sec
onds, the length 400 or 425 feet, and
the speed 2S nautical miles per hour are
produced only in storms. During q
southeast storm in the southern Atlantic
he measured waves 600 feet long, and
this was not a maximum, for in latitude
80 degrees south and longitude 80 de-
grees east be observed waves of Is Sec
onds' period, which were 1850 feet
long, with a velocity Of 1871 feet per
second, or 461s nautical miles an hour.
DR.. Schott does not think that the
maximum helght OF the waves Is YER
great. Some observers have estimated it
at 80 or 40 feet in a wind Of the force
represented by IL on the Beaufort scale,
the highest number of which is ~, and
DIR. Schott's maximum is just SO feet. He
believes that in great tempests waves of
more than 60 feet are rare, and that
even those of 90 feet are exceptional. In
the ordinary trade winds the height is
or 6 feet. The ratio Of height to length
is about 1873 in u moderate wind, /. IS
in a strong wind and LII in a storm,
from which it follows that the inclina.
tion Of the wave is respectively about 6,
10, IL degrees. The ratio Of the heich,
Of the waves to the force Of the wine
varies greatly.
