Faro and monte are the prevailing
games of fashion. Americans patron
ize the former, while the MeXicans and
Indians take the latter.
The monotony of frontier life is re-
ieved by an Indian hunt. News has
been received that the desert Indians"
as all tribes are styled by the frontiers
men, have murdered a miner. A num-
Der of the most desperate characters
start out to make good Indians" of the
first Indians they may meet. These
men are heavily armed with long-dis
lance shooting rifles, belt full of cart
bowie knife. A miner has been MUIR
dered, and an Indian must suffer,
though the murder may have been
committed by some paleface desper-
ado for the purpose of robbery. Ere
quently two prospectors go out on the
desert in company. They may locate
rich claim, and in order to get it
all one murders the other, and returns
to town with a hair-lifting story to
the effect that his partner had been
murdered by "Injuns," and he narrow
ly escaped. A posse goes out and
kills the first Indians they meet with
out questioning. They have SO little
regard for an Indians life that it
makes little difference to them
whether the Indian is guilty or not.
Frequently he is guilty of some other
murder. But this is not known to his
assassins. Consequently the relatives
of the murdered Indian take the war
path and kill the first miner they see.
The Indian will stealthily creep along
through ravine or under the lodges
of rocks and as the miner approaches

FOR SUNDAY READING.
A LESSON FOR THE NATIONS.

We said, says the New York Independent,
that the fragments received by cable of
Rudyard Kiplings poem on the queens
Jubilee, written as the pageant ended,
seemed to indicate something far better In
poetry and spirit than any of the loyal
verse that had been previously produced
by the occasion. We now have the whole
of 1t, and 1t is hymn, as well as poem,
fit to sing in the hottest moments of ma
TONS approach and prayer to God. 1t reads
as follows:
"God of our fathers, known of old;
Lord of our far-hung battle line,
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine;
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
1.-THE tumult and the shouting dies;
The captains and the kings depart;
Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice,
An humble and contrite heart.
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
''Far-called, our navies melt away;
On dune and headland sinks the fire;
10. all our pomp of yesterday
Is, one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Judge Of the Nations. spare us yet.
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
eff, drunk with sight of power, we loose
Wild tongues that have not Thee in awe;
Such boasting as the Gentiles use,
Or lesser breeds without the Law;
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget ffkFr. ~
Tor heather heart that puts her trust
2 In reeking tube and iron shard,
All valiant dust that builds on dust.
And guarding calls not Thee to guard:
For frantic boast and foolish word, e4sa q
Thy mercy on Thy people, Lord.

The removal of the national library
from the capitol to the new library
building will result in the charging of
the crypt under the great rotunda.
When the Toner collection was received
by the library about 16 years ago, brick
walls were built just back of the second
row of columns, in the crypt, thus con-
verting the outer circumference into
apartments for the temporary occupan-
cy of the collection given by DR.. Toner.
The building of these apartments COW
cred up the windows of the crypt, and
yesterday they were uncovered to the
gaze of the public for the first time in
16 years.
Now that the books of this collection
have been removed to the new build
ing, workmen have begun to tear down
these obstructing walls, and the vault
ed chamber will be restored to its orig
inal beautiful design. The crypt will
be not only beautified, but it will be
increased in space to nearly three
times that with which visitors have
been familiar. After the temporary
walls have been removed, the entire
chamber will be freshly painted. The
law especially provides that none of
the rooms vacated by the library shall
be occupied for any purpose whatever
until authority is conferred by con-
gress. The law library will remain in
its present quarters, on the ground
floor beneath the apartments occupied
by the supreme court.
The departure of the congressional
library from the capitol building marks
az epoch in the history of that struc-
ture, and it is an epoch which should
stand forth in future history. 1t is an
epoch which marks the growth of this
great republic. 81.
Mark you! The capitol building is
the greatest and most magnificent leg
islative building in the world. There is
no congress, nor parliament, nor reich
stag, nor other parliamentary body in
the whole world which has such a
palace. The congress of the United
States sits in the most roomy as we'll
as the most beautiful building of it's
kind in the whole world.
But the congressional library has
Sio"h 81 eiioe ~ lhoot NC tuhCil OuI Va
tie capitol building, and housed in
splendid editice erected for that pur.
pose alone. There is lesson of pa.
triotism in this fact.
The proper place for the COMPRESSION
al library is in the capitol building,
where the congress convenes and as
sembles. The congressional library
should naturally be placed in the same
building with the congress. Anybody,
even those who have never been in the
national capital, will sec that this state
ment is correct. For concreteness and
homogeneity the congressional library
ought to be close to the congress, for
the use of congressman; and therefore
it ought to be under the same roof with
the congress.
Well, that was thought of by the
original architect of the capitol; and
he set apart spacious quarters for the
congressional library. AS matter of
fact, in that early day, the architect
was criticised for having devoted SO
much space to the library. But he was
man of travel and of learning, as well
as one skilled in his profession, and he
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1897-08-26


foresaw the literary growth of this ma
ton. He also knew that the library of
congress would necessarily contain all
of the great works of the world; and so
he set aside ample space for the library.
But the world of letters grew more
rapidly than even that astute architect
could foresee. Moreover, Abraham Lin
coin appointed librarian who was
veritable book worm. He has read and
digested more books than any other Ii
brarian in the world. Therefore Lii
brarian Spofford has omnivorously
culled from the worlds literature the
best and most valuable children of the
brains of the greatest thinkers and
writers of all generations. Conse-
quently, the congressional library grew
and waxed strong, until it was finally
hampered for elbow room. Librarian
Spofford, for ten long years, begged the
congress to give him a new building.
At last, with the aid of two great men,
Senator Morrill,, of Vermont, and Sen
ator Voorhees,, of Indiana, he succeeded
in securing the new building for the
congressional library. The congress,
like the people of this country, may be
slow; but the congress, like the people,
does nothing by fractions. When new
library building was finally projected,
the congress was liberal and prodigal.
The congressional library is now being
moved into the most beautiful building
ever erected by mortal man. Not even
the hitherto peerless Taj-Mahal, of the
Upper Gauges, can vie with this new
building in magnificence and beauty.

The Right Kind of Fruit.

Some people judge human nature as a
man would who, going in the fall to an
apple-tree hanging full of apples, makes
diligent search. for all the mean,
.scrawny, corrupted, tasteless apples
there are, and then says: "Ahl'
these are the kind of apples that this
wonderful tree produces!" That is not
fair test for any tree; take the finest
apples it will produce under the best
conditions, and they are the apples
which 1t ought to productivity. John

The report of the commissioners on the
layout and extension OF Canal street does
not satisfy the residents of the section
north of Smith street any more than did
the report Of the same commissioners on
the assessment for the widening of

fair that the heavier assessment should be
placed on them and the much lighter one

owners of property in the vicinity of Ran
