Il seems that they are yet disseminated. Some OF
them long for a 'rarlor" like the Assembly,
parlor, where they can lounge or smoke, ana
at times use for a committee-room. One OF the
latest schemes for this purpose is to slice on
some OF the finest rooms Of the state Library
which happen to be situated just beyond the
Senate Library. to the westward. and transform
them irto commiitee-rooms and s:noking-rooms'
It does not matter that this plan II carried out
would spoil the state Library; aLyhow' those

by the State Library School for cataloguins ana
