In Rewey last week, being the fourth
section placed in Iowa county by him

is especially adapted to small com
munities, making available TO each
library of 1000 volumes, at u trtllng
cost. A section consists of 80 vol
umes, which remain In one commu-
nifty for three months; then it goes
elsewhere and another section takes
It's place, and so on until the whole
library Of 1000 volumes has gone the
rounds aud individuals Of each COM
munity have had an opportunity to
read every book. The list embraces
the latest aud most approved works
of the leading writers of history, BIZ
ography, science and romance, such
as Macauley, Trollope, Hopkins, Roe.
Alcott, Dickens, Reade, Dumas Scott,
Canon Doyle, }. Rider Haggard, etc.

striking him the electric current
darted through the floor and spent
itself in the ground beneath. Mrs.

which was explained on the ground
that the Columbian launch while tow

Pennsy Finishes First.

At this point Wisconsin was seen 10
swerve badly toward the western shore
and TO the surprise OF everybody main
tained this course. although Ii took the
boat inside of a number OF small pleas
ure boats and fully 500 yards.if il main
tained the angle, out OF Wisconsin's
proper course at the finish. The Penn
sylvania boat gained upon the Wiscon-
sin boat and as they passed into the
last quarter the noses Of the shells
were on a line. The Pennsylvania con-
tingent on the train was frantic with
Joy and yelled 20 the crew to win. The
Wisconsin hoat, unable to turn back
into it's line, had found dead water in
the new line which il had sought near
the shore. and though the crew pulled
desperately, the nose of the Pennsyl-
vania shell came out inch by inch until
it crossed the line a scant half length
ahead OF the Badgers boat. II was a
finish that set wild with delight every
lover OF good sport. The Cornell boat
was fully three lengths TO the rear OF
the Wisconsin boat. while the Column
bias finished gamely their stern chase
almost four lengths behind Cornell. The
Associated Press time, as taken very
accurately, was 20 minutes l So sec
onds. while the official time given from
the referees boat was 20 minutes sec

condition when they finished.

As they passed under the bridge Wis
consln had a lengths lead on Pennsyl-
vanta and one and a half on Cornell.
Just after they passed the bridge
Pennsylvania succeeded I'm tapping her
boat over the Badgers stern. but the
Westerners Immediately responded in
creasing their stroke slightly. Cornell
had evidently lost ability to put any
more power in the stroke and could
not keep up the pace set by the two
crews ahead: Her boat was fully two
and a half lengths behind Pennsylva-
mia, while Columbia was still struggling
on. three lengths TO the rear OF Cor
nell. Passing the three mile and a
quarter point, Pennsylvania hit up the
stroke to 80, and there began one of
the most exciting contests ever seen
in boat racing. Slowly the bow man
of the Pennsylvania boat lined up with
the coxswain in the Wisconsin boat,
but just as he had come on a line with
him the Wisconsin crew responded 90
the squirt and again drew away.

should also retire their opponent with

hits with a total OF is and one sacrifice.
and yet with ali this good stick work

In the first inning Hernon hit for two
bases, scoring on Walters two-bagger.
In the third Hernon went To first on

Dagger and singles by Nyce and Muir
ray were productive of run I'm the
sixth inning. In the seventh HernOn

Cassidy took Hernon home on two

was in the eighth inning. when Nyce,
having made clean hit, was sent to
