STATE LIBRARY COMMISSION.

The Delaware State Library Com
mission has reached point where
active, energetic aud effective work on
its part for the present season must
cease un less it receives more adequate
financial support from the philanthropic
people OF the State.
In November, gentleman who be.
lieves in the educational work of
libraries offered Sl0C to the commission
on condition that S400 be contributed
by others. The comm ssiun then made
an appeal through the press OF the
State and by means of circular letter
cent to a plumber OF people, for con-
tributions to this fund Subscriptions
have been coming 10 slowly, but the
total amount in hand has thus far only
reached 1891. These subscriptions in
the order of their recent are as follows:
j. Ernest Smith, $40: Mrs. Mary
Corbit Warner, SO: Robert L. Stuart,
$40: Charles Beadenkopf, So; Ii. T.
Scott, $40; Samuel Bancroft. Jr., $50;
Bishop leighton Coleman, So; Gov.
John Hum. SO; W. A, Pratt, 90; Col.
II. A. du Pont, $40; Edmund Mitchell.
81; Daniel W. CDrbit, $40; Manlove
HAYES, $40; Alfred ID. Warner, $40;
Orlando Owens $40; Jesse u SheE
herd 50; William George Hill, So; W.
M Dickson, So; Col. j. }. Ross, So;
Willard A. Fleming, 81; William
Beadsnkopf 50; A. q. Thatcher, 81.
1t will be seen that there is still
needed 5l66 in order to secure the SlC0
first offered, thus making the total OF
$500, imperatIvely required to carry on
the work of the commission. Unless
this sum is made UP without delay,
the active work must cease within few
DAYS. 1t is hoped that the commission
will receive financial support from the
Sta 9 at the next legislative session but
mean time it is necessary to call upon
the philanthropio people of this State.
10 carry on its work, the comm lssion
has employed Miss Florence Bayard
Kane She has organized the libraries
owned by the State and has devised a
complete system for the proper organi-
cation for Libraries which may here
after be secured to spread this work to
all parts of the State. Tbs members Of
the commission are very much grAtified
with the results thus far accomplished,
but ID lss Kane's attention has thus far
been largely occupied with tha work Of
| organization. What IS of even more
Importance perhaps is her function of a
library missionary who shall SPREAD the
| library idea everywhere through the
State. encouraging localities to secure
travelling Libraries and wherever pos
sible inducing them to organize
libraries for themselves. Miss Kane
hiss already visited number OF places
throughout thu State and has always
met with warm reception. In several
places visited by her, much interest
has been shown in the project of estab
fishing the libraries in those localities.
Unless more adequate support is given
to the commission and that, too, with
out delay, this work, highly important
to the educational interest of the small
towns of the State, must be inter
rupted.
Subscriptions to this fund may bt
sent to the chairman OF the commission,
Manloye HAYES, Dover, to whose ordel
checks should be made.

= There was lively discussion at Thurs
day meeting of City Council relative
to the matter of the SPEC al assessors,
who were employed by Council some time
ago and are still al work. Tbs subject
was hreached by MIR. Cannon, the mem
her from the Second ward who pointed
out that the special assessors had been
ma d by Council every month, hut had
made no reports He thought the people
should know what they are doing. The
assessment must be completed, accord.
ing to law, he said, by January I'd and
as yet they have not assessed one half
of the city. Tho people should know
what they are doing 1.-THE city's hand
is already deep enough 10 the peoples
pockets. 2 he said. Referring again to
the assessors, he said he had been in
formed that some properties in the out
ekirts OF the city had been assessed the
same as Market street properties. At
the conclusion Of his remarks he made
q motion that the former action of
Council employing the special ASSESSORS
be resoinded.
Mr.. Kane pointed out that the special
assessors are not acting under the law
which governs the regular assessors and
have until February Goth to make their
report
Mr.. Stewart asked whether the reeu !.
lar assessors had completed their work
and was informed that they had

MIR. Kane EXPRESSED suspicion tina,

owned by him had been raised, hut
Mr.. Cannon said such was not the case
He SAID he did not know thing about

So rich and sweet was the life he lived,

nearly 30 years ago until the day of
his death, in Newark, Del, where he had
lived, continuously, for AZ years, he bad

to know him, Was to love him; ano one
had but to stand in his presence to feel
that he WAS man who had realized the
meaning of "the fatherhood of God, .
and 1.-THE brotherhood of men," 1t Is
not strange, Therefore, that this man
should have had 80 many friends.
Everyone that had ever met him loves
to tell, to-day, of the goodness of dear
Father Shivler and of the kindly treat

hands But he loved God, as we'll as his
