A Bad Breakdown

A Bad Breakdown
occurred on the electric line by the en-
gine of the first section tearing down
the guywires TO several trolley line poles
at the Allen Cannery. This broke the
circuit and it was after o'clock when
the line was repaired 20 cars could
move. Then the crowd had reached
Marion Square afoot, and in vehicles.
At the square the lunch was served 10
the guests standing. Ropes were drawn
80 as 10 keep the crowds back. Not be-
ing arranged by states, very few eastern
people succeeded in finding their friends
until the carriages were filed when
some had chance to greet old acquaint-
ances.

State Land Commissioner l, w. Colquitt gives the following warm ing to homesteaders Donation claimants who have made bona fide settlements upon state lands. and who are living upon, culti- vating and improving same in ac- cordance with law, with the inten- ton of acquiring title thereto, are permitted to cut or remove, or caused to be cut or removed, from the portion thereto to be cleared for cultivation, SO much timber as is actually necessary for that pur- pose, or for building, fences and other improvements on the land donated.

Violators will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

the town are anxious to read some of the late works in fiction; such as David IIarum, Richard Carvel. When knighthood was in Flower. Red Rock, &c., the Directors pro- pose to allow each member who pays the yearly fee of $I.oo to the Treasurer, Mir. Leo Bickart, the privilege of selecting one book, provided it not be too expensive for the library to purchase. Let those who wish to take advantage of this proposition, see the Treas urer right away, and the books will be ordered as soon as possible.
 The Directors acknowledge with much gratitude the great assist ance rendered the association by the Daughters ot the Twentieth Century, and they turn to them  in this hour of need, and ask their help once more in reviving an in- terest in the library. In some towns and cities literary entertain- ments, musicals, lectures, &o., are given for the benefit of the public libraries. Prof. ]. |. Erwin has been appointed d committe of one to confer with the T. C. Club in regard..to this matter.
 Contributions from public spirit ed citizens who wish to help along good cause, will be gratefully ae- knowledged.

Shall Our Public Library Die i?

A little more than year ago the people of our town with much enthusiasm inaugurated public li- brary, and invested two hundred and fifty dollars in books. These books have nearly all been read not only by the members of the library but by many outsiders as well. It has been clearly shown that such an institution is not only a great convenience, but almost a public necessity. Now this question con fronts us-"What are we going to do about the library;" Member ships in the library expired several months ago, and no new member ships have been sold. The library treasury is empty, and without the fees from new memberships, will not be able to buy any new books.
 With these facts confronting them, the Directors met last Satur- day morning, and authorized this statement to be made to the pub lie. They call upon the people of the town to come to the rescue of the library, and to perpetuate it for the benefit of the rising gener- ation. As many of the people of
