THE ARMY'S NAVY.

commenting on the great fleet of
transports commanded by the United
States Army, the New York Herald
says:
The regular transports are
ed by soldiers, under whom are placed
navigating merchant masters, engineers
and various other seagoing people, whose
mlsfltted parts are to obey orders even if
they break owners. The vissels have
been known to fly pennarts, to fire sa-
lutes, to take on the fine air of ceremony
that elsewhere in the world is vigorously
restricted to regular navies. They have
cruised and run ashore in many seas,
and are still, because of their anomalous
status, the wonders, the unsolved mys-
teries of the foreign warships into hose
company they may steer"

LIBRARIES IN MONTANA,
Marvellous Increase of Public, Society
and School Libraries.

Frank C. Patten, ex-librarian of the
Helena public library. writing on this
subject about a year ago, says that the
school district libraries are quite general
throughout the state. From 1895 to 1899.
the number of public misunderstanding the
term in the broadcast sense-had increas-
ed from % to nearly so. The number of
volumes in school district libraries had
increased from less than 5000 to 16, 800.
Including all libraries, the number of
volumes has grown from less than SO, 900
to more than 49, 600. The yearly issue
for home use from the Montana libraries
from 1895 and up to 1899 was about
10000. TIL annual loans or 1899 were
about 800, 900. Following are cities in the
state where public. society n other IL

There are a number of libraries in the
state supported by library associations,
clubs and other organizations. Many
other libraries are supported by the mon
ey of the state and are essentially state
institutions. Libraries in the religious
institutions named above are, of course,
supported out of their own funds. To
public libraries in the strictest sense,
supported by public money and free to
it's citizens, the cities of Butte, Dillon,
Helena, and Missoula each contribute a
tax of | mill on the dollar. The Hearst
public library at Anaconda is supported
entirely by Mrs. p. A. Hearst. Billings
and Livingston are talking about public
libraries.
The library building at Great Falls was
presented to the city by Mrs Paris Glib
son. The building at Helena was erect
ed by the city in 1892. 1t cost about $40
900, exclusive of library. shelving and
furniture. Libraries supported by local
taxation, together with the Hearst IL
brary at Anaconda, are the ones enjoy
ing the largest popular use. Montana
libraries contain the only Bile
collection of books between MINNEAPOLIS
and Puget Sound.

LIBRARx AND AUDITORIUM.

The library building cost about $S5. 600
and the furnishings Of library, auditori-
UNI and armory have brought the total
expenditure to over $100. 600. The building
consists of two floors and a basement, the
southern end of the basement being on
the level of the street. The Auditorium
in in frequent use for public meetings
and entertainments, being granted or
rented for such purposes by the city gov
eminent. The basement has been fitted
up for military drills, and is occupied
at present by the Meagh>r Guards.
The interior of the lrprary has been so
often described. it's area in feet and inch
es so accurately given, hat the present
writer will skip such uninteresting de-
tails as he would omit the schedule of a
chattel mortgage in a Christmas story.
Suffice it. 10 say hat every inch of area
that can be spared for the use of visit
ors and patrons of the library on the
main floor has been yielded to public
convenience and to make room for more
books. Atone time there was an art room.
and ladies of literary tastes met there
frequently, read essays, discussed his
torical and timely topics and conducted
the business of their society. 1t is no
longer known as an art room, and the
ladies' clubs which 6rmerly occupied it
Were obliged to seek other quarters,
much to the regret of trustees and librar-
ian. However, the space is utilized for
a reading room for ladies. 1t has been
nicely carpeted and furnished. The
artistic shield sent by the aides Of Butte
to the Worlds Fair at Chicago, in 1899,
is a conspicuous ornament at his end
of the library. 1t is made of copper and
silver from the mines of Butte, blending
a silver % with a copper shield.

4 very amusing incident occurred
last evening about $50 o'clock at the
corner of Pittston avenue and Alder
street; that is, it was amusing to all
but four conductors and four motor
men of the Scranton Railway COM
pany. A north-bound car and a SOUTH
bound car met at the corner of Alder
street and Pittston avenue. one three
blocks away from the switch and the
other five.
North-bound conductor said when he
left the switch there was nothing in
sight. South-bound said he was on
the switch first and had the right OF
way. And so they stood and argued
The crowd around grew larger every
minute until there were several hum
dred people around the car. The mo-
tormen in the meantime let the con-
ductors talk, and fell asleep.
I'm right" said conductor of north
bound. "I'll stay here all night be-
fore I'll bulge"
"Ah, go on, you fresh guy" re-
sponded the other, II was here first"
Garry them around" suggested a
bystander. Get together and push"
said a second, land see who can push
the other back to the switch"
In the meantime two more cars came
up, and several others We're waiting
at different switches along the line,
and the crowd was growing larger, and
the passengers more impatient.
The north-bound car was standing
on the crossing and Lieutenant Zang
suggested to the conductor that he
move back. He did SO, and this was
taken as a retreat, and he was greeted
with loud jeers. He was game, how
ever, and merely moved off the cross
ing and settled down again. BY this
time the block was crowded with peO-
pie "to see the fun" and traffic was
at a standstill all along the line. The
north bound conductor finally tired of
the game; had his motorman reverse
the power and ran back to the switch,
and as he gave in the crowd, to eX-
press it aptly gave him "a merry ha-
ha," much to his discontinue.
by actual time, the incident fur
nished sixteen minutes of fun to a
large crowd.
