NANCY JOHNSON'S CABIN.
Log House a Century Old Erected
On the Grounds of the Pan
American Exposition.

The Village of the. Six Nations In
oians on the grounds of the Pan-Am-
erican Exposition at Buffalo, N. Y,
which Is Intended as an historical ex-
hibit of the aboriginal people of the
eastern part OF the United States, will
be surrounded by a f'tockade such as
the Indians built in olden times to pro-
tect their villages from the unexpected
attack of an enemy. Within this stock
ade these descendants of the Red Men
who once held within their sway all
that part of the country where the ex-
position is situated, will live Just as
their ancestors lived several hundred
years ago. Their dwellings will be
long houses" built of poles and bark,
and they will cook their meals and per-
form domestic duties as the Indians of
the Iroquois League, did in times long
since gone by. tf.
Just outside the stockade will be sew
eral log cabins which will have associa-
ton with Indian life. One of these will
be made to represent a cabin of the
white pioneers and another will be the
identical log house in which Nancy
Johnson, an aged Seneca squaw, has
lived for the past century. This cabin
was the Oldest house on the Tonawanda
Indian Reservation, which is situated
rear Buffalo and the grounds Of the Ex-
position. 1t was taken apart and trans
ported 10 tne site OF tne DIX NdtIohs
village and set up just as 1t was before
1t is in a clump of trees, where 1t looks
as If it might have stood for hundred
years. In this cabin the venerable
squaw, who Is said by those who have
examined the records to be 100 years OF
age, will live and receive her friends
during the progress of the exposition
| The rebuilding of the cabin has just
been completed, the work having beer
done by Seneca Indians from the
| Tonawanda Reservation The cabin Is
| composed of logs of red beech which
| were hewn in the forest Just after the
close of the Revolutionary war. They
are so well preserved that the cabir
would doubtless stand for another
half century. This cabin and the old
| lady who will live here will be one OF
the unique historical attractions Of the
Tan American Exposition.

DISCUSSION OF LIBRARIES.
Prog ram Observed at Monthly Meet
Ing of Washington Association.


The program at the regular monthly
meeting of the Library Association last
evening at the Columbian University was OF
special interest. An address was made by
Dr. Edward ]. Farquhar of the Patent Of
ice Library on some phases of library
work. which was based mainly on the per-
sonal experience of the speaker One of the
factors, he thought, in making a library
useful was good memory on the part of
the librarian, SO that he could have at his
command large part of the contents of
the library. In the discussion which fol-
lowed it was pointed out that I'm these days
the demand for the catalogue is decreasing,
while that for the trained library assist ant
is increasing. Attention was also called to
the relation Of the public to the library.
and the question was raised whether pco-
pie who did not know what they wanted
or who merely wanted to make use of the
brains and time of the librarian TO turn
out articles which they could sell, are en-
titled to the attention which they receive
at the hands of librarians.
An account was given by Mr. Allen B.
Slauson, superintendent of the periodical
department. Library of Congress. of the
been recently opened He stated that il
was the largest in the world, and that
with the present facilities. papers repre-
senting every state and territory in the
Union were now on file there. In spite of
this large number. there were represented
in this room only about one-third of the
newspapers that were received by the IL
brary.
Mr.. Charles Martei also made an address
on library work. which closed in an inter-
esting fashion the formal program of the
evening.
