The Omaha Bee states that
contracts for next seasons beetS
are being circulated among the
farmers of Grand Island, Neb. and
are being rapidly signed. The
contracts are about the same as
those used here last year and
that will be in use here again this
year. The price is fixed at 81 a
ton for all beetS that contain II
per cent sugar and a coficient
purity of so. Provisions are
made for purchasing the low grade
beets at a lower price provided
they do not go below 10 per cent
sugar with 70 purity but they
are not to be taken until all the
others are worked up and all
beets must be kept free from
frost so this clause is not of much
benft. The company will have
no trouble in securing ali the
beets they want.

Chicago Society.

A correspondent of The Home Journal
says that the two most striking facts about
society in Chicago are that it is very small
and comparatively poor, 1t is this poverty
and the curious fact that society, while
small is not much assailed by outsiders
demanding admittance which allow real
ly remarkable democracy of spirit. "There
is no city in the world where young man
can be so poor and yet SO well received. He
must be properly introduced, but, this
done, els judged very fairly on his merits
and his good humor and entertaining pow
er win pay his social debts everywhere

Other Objectionable DOCTRINES.

NEW HAMPTON, n. H.. August 4-Rep-
resentative Joseph II. Walker Of worces-
ter. who is q member Of the board of trus-
tees Of Brown University, and to whose op-
position to the public utterances of Presi-
dent E. Benjamin Andrews on the subject
Of free silver the recent resignation OF DR..
Andrews IL attributed, admits that he start
ed the agitation about the matter. and says
that in his opinion there is no chance that
DIR. Andrews will be permitted to remain
or to reconsider his resignation.
In answer to queries by an Associated
Press correspondent, Mr.. Walker, who Is
spending the summer at his stock farm
here. stated today that he personally start
ed the trouble at Brown at a meeting o.
the corporation of the university last June.
This was done because the utterances of
PRESIDENT Andrews were at variance with
the views of the corporation on the ques-
ton OF national financial policy. Mr.
Walker said:
Nothing was said or done at the meeting
OF the trustees Of Brown in June that was
not clearly within the line of duty upon the
part of every member of the board. and
everything was said and done with feel
Ing Of the warmest friendship for DIR. An
drews- There was not in the mind of n
solitary member of the board the least idea
of abridging President Andrews i'm thought
or private utterances on silver or any other
question. The corporation did not demand
DIR. Andrews resignation. 1t sought a
friendly conference with its chief executive
officer.
THAT is all. In turning from the cor
poration every one of whom was his
friend to the public and taking the posi-
ton he has by himself and by the position
Of the faculty, 1 cannot see how. by any
possibility, the relations which must neces-
sarily exist between the president of the
university and the corporation can be re-
established"
Congressman Walker declared, in CLOSING
the interview, that DIR. Andrews has taught
other things than silver which were thought
to be detrimental to the progress of the
university. His position upon the wage
question, Mr.. Walker said, is bad.

Nearly 1000 applications for appointment
in the new Congressional Library have
been received ty Librarian Young. There
are just fifty-four places to be filed. Near
ly all the applications have been acknowl-
edged by letter. the papers have been
placed on file and Mr. Young has caused a
brief to be made of each application These

Young will choose from those that seem to
have the best qualifications list of per-
sons to be sent before the examining board
for examination as TO their fitness The
one receiving the highest marks before
this board will be appointed.
1t is said the qualifications of the maiori-

Women predominant in the latter class
Although the number of places to be filled
by women in libraries in this country is ex-
ceediEgiy limited, hundreds of young wo-
men take the special courses in library
work and graduate every year
There is one person at least who is not
afflicted with the Alaska gold fever That
person Is in Alaska already and wants To
get away. He has applied for a minor DO

letter would indicate that any place in the
library would be acceptable, il it would
just get him out OF Alaska.
There will be scramble for possession
Of the cid library quarters in the CAPITOL.
The law passed at the last session express
ly provided that no one should occupy the
quarters made vacant by the removal of
the library until authorized by Congress.
1t is understood that the Supreme Court
has a covetous eye upon the space, and
will try TO obtain possession of a portion
,of the room. The Senate and the House
can each find use for the rooms. and their
disposition will probably be settled by the

CONSTANTINOPLII, August 4.-The sec

Pasha, which sailed from the Dardaneiles
yesterday, has arrived at Sigri, island of

Referring to the fears expressed here
that the departure of the Turkish ships
might lead to collision with the inter
national fleet in Cretan waters. in view of
the announcement of the foreign admirals
that they have decided to oppose the land
ing of Turkish reinforcements in the Island
of Crete, the Turkish newspapers say that
the squadron has only been ordered to car
ry out evolutions in the islands of the
archipelago.
