SCHOOL LIBRARIES.

There is a plan on foot, embraced in
a Legislative bill, TIA have libraries To-
Gated wherever, there are Hawaiian
schools. The Star thinks we'll of the
scheme, saying, among other things:
The idea, is an eminently good one,
and If the Legislature will vote the
money, and the money is available, one
can have set of most valuable edu-
cational centers throughout the group.
The libraries, as projected, are more
than mere circulating libraries with lots
of novels and stories. They aim d rails
ing the taste of the reading commun-
ity. The libraries propose to have fic-
ton, the best of fiction, but those who
are working for them set their faces
strongly against ephemeral fiction. It
would be Ubiquitous to ask any com
munity to pay for detective and burg
lar stories What is wanted is an in
tellectual regeneration if one can
get it,
Assuming that no advocate OF the
library idea will find it necessary to
call IN the aid of the American Book
trust IN perfecing plans, we wish to
commend the policy of making each
schooi, particularly each rural school.
d library center for its neighborhood
But 1t must be admitted that an ade-
quate library for each school would
cost larger sum of money, perhaps.
than the Legislature or the taxpayers
would be willing to provide, and that.
If the literary centers" are to be worth
much they should each keep in touch
with the best new publications as ia ct
as they may appear. This implies a
heavy bill of costs, especially for du-
plication. However, there is a way out
IN the direction of travelling libraries
such as are used successfully in some
Eastern States.
instead of equipping fifty schools
with set of Dickens or Thackeray
apiece, and other standard works on the
same basis, a travelling library would
contne the purchase to say. two or
three sets, which would make the
rounds of the various schools at inter-
Vals OF perhaps month. To. illustrate:
Boxes of books would be made IN at
the Depository and shipped to each
school on the list. At the end of the
month these volumes would be sent
back, the boxes repacked with a fresh
supply of books, and the school again
provided with reading matter. Coming
down to figures, If each one of f1ftv
schools had five hundred books in du-
plicate, making. $4,000 in all, they would
be much worse off than If supplied
regularly from a central library of 5 600
books, while the taxpayers would be
much better off. The plan would per
init each school to draw on 5000 rather
than BOO books; the books would be
kept in account; they would be mend
ed when out Of repair; and one librar-
ian would serve the whole school svs-
TEN.
We have figured on fifty schools, but
there are 40 public schools on the Is
lands. No doubt the Book Trust would
take contract to install a big ubrarv
IN each one Of them.

The Destructive snowslide.

A snowslide in the Rocky mountains
is more terrible, almost, than Hood or
fire" said a Colorado man the other
day When a million tons or so of
snow start down a mountain side it
could be stopped about as easily as a
man could stop the rising of the sun.
And snowslide is a pretty thorough
workman, too. 1t doesn't leave much
standing in it's path. 1 have seen sew
eraI slides which were comparatively
small, but they were big enough to
make my hair stand on end. Immense
trees We're rooted up and giant bowd-
ers displaced with as little ceremony
as though they had been blades of
grass 1t is very rare, however, that
loss of life attends a snowsiide. People
have learned where they are apt to
occur and don't build their towns and
cities in the way" Us

G W.'s Laurel Wreath.

when Washington was proceeding
from Mount Vernon to New York in
1889, to be inaugurated as the first
President of the United States,'s recall
ed a Boston man the other day, his
passage through the several cities en-
route was made the occasion for mag
nificent demonstrations, the most nota-
BILE of which was at Philadelphia An
early historian tells us that. General
Arthur ST. Clair headed the local. nota-
bles who went out from Philadelphia to
meet and receive the President-ele
that the city was filled with people,
and that triumphal arches had been
erected over many of the streets. While
passing bareheaded beneath one of the
arches erected for the occasion, the
historian tells us, Washington was re-
quested to stop. He did so. and a
young woman placed on his brow the
laurel wreath of victory. Just imagine
some one stopping the inaugural pro-
cession' next 4th of March and placing
laurel wreath of victory.

Britain's out-of-Date Rail Service.

Kipling has found time to administer
some of his sharp pen pricks to the
Anticipated railroad accommodations of
Great Britain, and he winds up by sug-
costing that all those who have a
grievance against the railroad man
agement should write to each director
personally and keep on writing until
the directors became distracted. Next
he proposes that billboards be erected
by the side of the tracks and covered
with sarcastic placards in large let
tiers, and. finally, that when by acct
dent a train arrives on time the public
should overwhelm the company with
mock applause. 70

Death Of Vim. Bandle.

After very serious illness of over a
week. William w. Bandle, of Hesper
township, passed away at the home of
Mrs. j. Gold in this city last Thurs
day morning at $50 o'clock, aged SO
years. Mr.. Bandle had been in De-
corah for several weeks, doctoring for
an eye trouble, and went to Chicago
for few days. There he was taken
sick and went to a hospital for a week,
coming here Wednesday morning, and
being taken to Mrs. Colds, where he
died a week later. He leaves a wife,
two daughters and two sons. The
funeral services were held from his
home Friday afternoon, Rev. Thomp-
son, of Burr Oak, officiating, attended
by large number of friends. In his
life Mr.. Bandle was an honest, indus
triOus citizen, friend of all who knew
him, and he had lived in this county a
great many years. He was brave
soldier during the civil war, and it is
thought that the disease which caused
his death was contracted in the army.
His death will be monrned by many.
