The east side city court had up a
negro man this morning for va
grancy. They found ia his posses
sion razor, testament and seve.
raj letters Of recommendation as TO
his character, The coon said to
recorder Murphy that he was here
looking for work, was a church
member and never looked to his
neighbors chicken coop as a base Of
supply for his carniverous appe-
tite, but instead, he earned his
meat and bread by the perspiration
that fell IN limpid cataracts down
his brow, The city attorney on
counting his beer checks found
that he had enough to run him
through the day, mol pressed the
case against the good negro and
laying his hands on the coon's
head said, Depart and vag no
more.

LOOSE IN A

Almost every lover of reading will re-
member the sensation of wishing he had
the run of a library all to himself. Even
with the wisest of us, however, it is
likely that under such circumstances we
should waste much precious time in
reading trash. For every thousand
books in a library it is probable that not
over fifty, perhaps not over twenty, are
worthy to be read. And even taking
these twenty, and considering the vast
accumulations of books, it is certain
that no one person could read them in a
lifetime. From this standpoint there
never was a more precious work than
Charles Dudley Warmers Library of
the Worlds Best Literature" now being
published in thirty elegant volumes.
This embraces the best in prose and
poetry of the most famous authors in
every language, dead as well as living,
during all the centuries of literary ac-
tivity and progress. Even Mr.. Warner,
with his splendid attainments, could
not be expected to know where all
these treasures were, but he was as
sisted by a large staff of eminent living
writer's, native and foreign, each of

William M. Springer and Hon. John r.

costs about $500, 900 a year to maintain
these courts, sessions of which are held
at Miami, Vinita, ~Tahlequah, Wagner,

whom took charge of the field or
the particular great author with
whom he was most familiar. In this
way it may be said that the libraries of
the world were ransacked to find the
best authors the authors were surveyed
to choose their best books, and finally
the books were studied to get the best
and most entertaining passages. Surely
this was getting at the cream of the
worlds literature, so that the possessor
of these thirty volumes may be said to
have to himself the freedom of the
worlds libraries as well as safe guidance
to their treasures. In addition to these
selections these volumes have other
features of supreme interest and value.
There is a critical and biographical es-
say on each author quoted furnished by
some distinguished living writer.
These sketches are alone worth the cost
of the entire work. This constitutes
the work a genuine and complete liter
airy history, for not only are authors
discussed, but all famous books, poems,
dramas, and phases of literature, sacred
and prOfane at the same time a living
interest is impaired to all by adapting
choice and treatment to the popular
rather than scholastic. The volumes
are adorned with over one thousand por-
traits, illustrations, full-page and Wig
nette, and there is an excellent biogra-
phical dictionary of the lesser authors
who are not quoted by selection. We
can hardly conceive of a work that is
at once SO valuable and so truly enter
tanning, it being adapted to an hours
recreation no less than to the study of
some great theme that has occupied
the foremost intellects of the world.
We would suggest that those inter
ested should send a card for full partic-
ulars to the Warner Library Club, Pax
ton block, Omaha, as we understand
special inducements are now being Of
fered.
