CONVINCING AnsWer.

There are many people who do not
care for libraries who pride themselves
on having "only the books they read"
about them, but the answer made by
a distinguished scholar to one Of those
persons very we'll illustrates how valu-
able is this idea as to what a library
should be. The scholar was connected
with an institution Of learning which
had been greatly helped by q liberal
man of the neighborhood. but the liber-
nj man vas not much Of a sympathizer
with the idea of increasing the library.
When appealed to in the matter, he re-
piled:
"More books? Dear me. it seems to
me you've got more than you can read
now. Have you read all you have al
ready?'
NO." returned the scholar. land J

''Then why do you want more:'
"Let me ask you." said the scholar,

Havana, November 2s.-Although there
has been a great deal of exaggeration with
reference to risings in different parts OF
the island, there is no doubt that, despite
the tranquility of the country, some appre-
hension exists lest within the next few
months some trouble should occur in the
event that the United States congress does
not give definite assurances respecting the
future of Cuba.
It is asserted that many of the police,
especially members of the rural guard,
have for several weeks been paying part
of their salaries to a fund intended for use
in case of an outbreak against the United
States. information to this effect has been
brought to headquarters by persons who
have usually proved reliable.
1t has also been reported that recruit
ing for future emergencies" is in progress

be any trouble before the beginning OF next

Washington, November 2S-(Specal)-
to my private affairs, I would prefer to be
defeated for election to the senate"
This was the terse language Senator Nor
gan used today when 1 called to ask if he
was going to Alabama and to inquire if he
would continue to debate with Governor
Johnston.
There never was a time when l had
more work to do for my state my section,
or my country than at this time" he con-
tinued, land l will not neglect it, no, not
for reelection to the senate. 1 am in
that body till 1901 at any rate, and much
can be done in that time. Much must be
done, too. 1t is of more Importance to my
own people In the south than my reelection
is to me. shall propably pay a visit to
Birmingham during the Christmas holidays,
but it is impossible for me to waste the
time given to work in running about the
state in joint debate that is no debate.
Governor Johnston has set speech,
which he has memorized, and there is little
pleasure for me or enlightenment to the
people to listen ITO that speech and to hear
me thrash my own straw. must rely upon
the people of my state for common sense.
Ny state must know that my place is here.

longer, we'll and good, but as long as hold
their commission / shall remain here at my
post of duty. Too much is at stake here to
get in a futter and furry because some one
wants to get your seat. If I were to talk
till doomsday I could not persuade the peo-
pie of Alabama that had done more than
they can see, nor do 1 believe that any poll
tician or organization of politicians can un-
derrate me. 1 do not believe that Governor
Johnston is making headway and if he Is, I
can't help 1t; that Is ALL"
Some congressional callers came in for an
hour. They sat about, seeking advice from
the distinguished Alabamian. All thoughts
of the senatorship seemed forgotten. For
an hour he seemed to trace the affairs of
the world on mental blackboard, the lines
of which stood out as IL sensible to vision.
