New York, Sept. 4.-The market held
steady to-day, considering the fact that
a Sunday and holiday are to intervene
before the resumption Of trading and that
realizing has been on quite large scale
all week.
London bought quite freely in this mar
ket and buoyant tone was also reported
for Americans on the London exchange.
The motive assigned for to-day's adj
vance was the benefit to result to the
roads from the clause of the tariff law,
levying discriminating duty on foreign
goods brought into the country through
a contiguous country.
The market was under considerable
pressure after the opening on offerings

throughout the list. Market was raj
lied by the advance in the Northern

complaints Of shedding, rust and damage

while reports from Fall River dry goods

New York, Sept. 4.-The week closed
with quieter conditions prevailing in all
grades though the tone is well sustained
in both cotton and wooden goods. The re-
action coming after the first rush of early
orders is responsible for the retrogres-
sion in general interest. The quality OF
the recorders being already registered
shows that the general run Of later needs
will be of a liberal character. Staple cot
tons are quiet, print cloths show great

Prints are strong and active. Ginghams

loWay Died from Injuries,

Durham, N. c., Sept. 4.-(SpeciaD-
The corner stone of Durham's choicest
jewel was laid this afternoon in the
presence Of large and representative
audience and with all the solemnity of
Masonic rites.
The procession was formed in front of
the Banner warehouse at 5 o'clock in the
following order:
The Third regiment band
The Durham Light Infantry.
The two fire companies.
The Durham Lodge of Masons: car
riages with the speakers of the occasion,
and prominent citizens.
At the site on which the library is to
be situated, at least two thousand people
were gathered to welcome the procession
and witness the interesting ceremonies.
The program, as given in yesterday
correspondence. was entertainingly car
red out. The speech of Hon. George IL
Mebane was splendidly conceived, admir-
ably delivered. and enthusiastically re-
ceived. TIL eaddresses by Messrs. George
ceiyed. The addresses by Messrs George
ers and j. G.. Kilgo were all em:nently
adapted to the occasion and did much to
stir our people and arouse Il love for the
institution In fact, the greatness of the
step was appropriately marked by al
the exercises, and great step it is. Dur.
ham is the first town in the State to have
public library in it's own home, and il
means great deal for the spiritual life
of the town.

Mr.. MEBANES ADDRESS.

superintendent or PuDllc instruction
Mebane began his address with a clear
and interesting outline of libraries in
past ages and modern. He then took up
the libraries of the United States of
which he said there were about 1000
noting the most prominent. including,
of course, first the Congressional Libra
~.
Then the origin of the North Carolina
State Library was reached in his adj
dress. In North Carolina" said the
speaker. 1--WE find that a resolution was
passed by the General Assembly in 1888,
directing the Library Board to purchase
a library for the State.
'The first purchase was part of the
library of Judge Murphy
in October. 1885 Judge VIM CASTOR
purchased under the direction of Gov
Swain the first books for the Supreme
Court Library at a cost of $1,360.75 from
New York frm.D
at is evident from the amount of
money spent for Public Libraries by the
various governments of the world, that
it pays any government to establish libra
ries for the enlightenment of its people
Virtue and intelligence are the only
in proportion as a State ,nlightens the
minds. it adds new ince1 ives to virtue,
and diminishes the tempt. tions to vice of
its citizens; and in no way can State
do more to enighten and diminish tempt
alton than by placing good wholesome
books in reach of the people.
''We only have $500 appropriated an
nually to increase our State Library.
We now have sixty five thousand vol
umes in our State Library. We ought
to have five thousand dollars at least.
''Of the city libraries, the Boston Pub
lie Library is the largest and most sue
cessful in the United States. 1t was
established in 1852.
John Jacob Astor founded the Aston
Library Of New York
Lenox Library was founded by Jas.
Lenox, 1870.
Peabody Institute by Geo. Peabody,
in 1857.
The largest legacy ever made for
founding Public Library was made to
the citizens Of Chicago in the Newbery
bequest Of million dollars.
eve are glad to know that the leading
cities of North Carolina are esta blishing
Public Libraries. I hope the time will
come when every boy and girl in North
Carolina can read and write and will
have access to we'll selected library.
81 want to see first good public
school in every district, in North Caro-
lima and then good high school in every
township with good library open to all
the people. Then in addition to these
great blessings for the people want to
see the people appreciate and make use
Of these schools and libraries.
Opportunities used Alright make men
and women of our boys and girls.
This library will furnish opportunities
to a people that trust will use them for
their own uplifting and for that of those
about them"
He dwelt now upon the power and in
fluence of books, saying among other
things, "it>Yill pay the State and cities
of our Statesto spend more money for
well selected books" Closing he said,
'syour schools are a crown of glory to
