THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.
A Movement to Secure Catholic Books to
Be PI aced There.

Ex-Alderman MCGOWAN has of late
devoted considerable of his time to an
examination Of the books in the public
library and has failed to find single
Catholic book there. He foundsinIone Sec
ton 1440 religious and semi-religious
books and while he did not find single
Catholic book he did find many that are
notsonly anti-catholic, but in most cases
bitterly So He failed to find a single
book by Newman, Manning, Faber,or any
modern Catholic writer. 1t Is understood
that the library contains the writing of
the Nineene fathers and other Catholic
authors of that age. 1t is proposed by
leading Catholics to raise fund with
which to purchase Catholic books for the
library, and Mr.. MCGOWAN said the
movement had his hearty sypmathy and
will have his aid.
r. A. Noyes of the board of trustees Of
the library, said that the trustees will
receive the donation of Catholic books
lust they do the books of other church.
es. There is no money with which to
purchase the standard religious books,
but they are received whenever offered.
1t was, however, a surprise to him that
some at least of the books of Cardinal
Newman, especially the famous 'sApolo-
gia,' are not to be found in the library.
as they were ordered some time ago.
y The Caholic books will probably be
bought and presented to the trustees.
and will be gratefully received by the

water, however, and the articles in the

ST. M4RY'S BAZAIR
As Seen From the Mountain. .

Except on the occasion of the junior promenade the Second regiment armory has never looked as pretty as it does this week At the bazaar, as at the prom, hundreds of pretty girls are i'll evidence.
 Artistically draped booths are filled with the bright young faces of maidens representing different nations, but working as one in the interests of char ity. After climbing the mountain, which, by the way, takes the place of the ''stags' gallery" on looking over the whole scene no part of 1t is more pleas ing to the eye than the flower booth. From this bower of beauty roses, vio- lets, chrysanthemums and carnations are sold. This booth is in charge of the Misses Crevye and Klein, assisted by Miss Lilly and the Misses Hove, Miss Clark, Miss McGrail and the Misses Dill lon.
 On the opposite side of the hall the fair daughters of Spain are holding court in the choir booth. The candy booth, in charge of Miss Scranton, and the refreshment booth, in charge of the junior choir, are the favorite haunts of the young people. These two booths as seen from the mountain suggest the traditional rosebud garden of girls. In the junior choir booth young ladies in dainty costumes are seen fitting about serving refreshments with an ease and grace that is in itself pleasure to be- hold.
 In descending from the mountain the gypsy fortune tellers and "Rebecca at the Well'' present two delightful pie lures and lend a charm to the noun tain paths.
 Tomorrow afternoon there will be a childrens matinee The fair continues until Monday evening inclusive.

UNITED BAPTIST SERVICES.

At Calvary Baptist Church-Rev. F. W. O..
 Meyer Preached the Thanksgiving Ser
 mon-Various Baptist CIergymen As-
 sisted-A Large Congregation.
 The Baptist churches of the city yesterday forenoon united in holding Thanksgiving services at Calvary Bap- list church. A large congregation was present. Rev. J, A. Elder. pastor of Hope Baptist church, made the invo- cation, Rev. E. c. Sage, Ph. D., pastor of the Grand avenue Baptist church, announced and read the hymns, Rev. A. K. Foster, pastor of Olivet Baptist church, read psalm 1O7, Rev. J. H. Ma son, pastor of the First Baptist church, offered prayer, Rev. F. w. c. Meyer, pastor of the German Baptist church, delivered the sermon, and Rev. E. M. Poteat, pastor of Calvary Baptist church, gave the benedictton.
 MT, Meyer preached from Psalm 107:1, 70 give thanks unto the Lord" He spoke of the great sin of ingratitude, and said that it seems most contempti- hle. Thanklessness is a disease of the heart as we'll as defect of the head and places one in company with the nine Jewish lepers, bodily restored, but unclean because ungrateful of soul. MT. Meyer related the legend of St. Peter sending two angels to earth, one to gather up petitions and the other to gather up thanks. The former return nH with I1,n nf while the latter was able to get thanks from but three persons on earth. There Is cause for rejoicing in this country that one day in 365 is set apart to fill the empty basket of the thanks collect ing angel. If our food and other things which we need were on short allowance and were necessarily mindful of the least waste then we would prize the daily, common, constant, underestimate ed gifts of God more highly.
 We are cheered that the supremacy of righteousness and love is more than an ideal for which enthusiasts long. It is an idea realizing itself in every right eous and loving endeavor put forth on part of the people of God. Instead of ranting against the political evils let every publican enter the temple of pop ular franchise stand afar off in the ward of his political opportunity, not daring to lift up so much as his eyes around municipal corruptions, and smite his breast, saying, Lord be mer- ciful to me, voter. The cause of righteousness and love will triumph in the end.
 We owe God all we are and have. We have wherewith to pay Him. Lord help us pay our indebtedness.
