will be Richmond. These cata-
logues list 5000 books, and com~
prise, VS. believe, as complete
and interesting a library as we
have seen. Inasmuch as the Ii
brary delivers exactly the books
that a subscriber calls for and at
the time he calls for them, to
supply 5000 titles requires fully
SO. 600 books. In fact, the head
library has i'll stock and in cir.
culation over 100, 900 books, from
which the members draw. That
means that if a sufficient mum Der
OF subscribers can be secured to
establish a station here, our city
will have weekly access to an
enormous library, such as the
very large cities enjoy.
In the public library a member
gets the books he wants-if "lr

No WAR GAME TUESDAY:
Wind and Rain at Fort Riley
Made Active Maneuvers by the
Troops Impossible.
GRAND REVIEW IN HONOR OF VISITORS,
Few of the National Guard Companies
Arrived During the storm without
Equipage and Would Have Suffered But
for the Prompt Efforts of Camp Quar-
termastsr Baker.


Fort Riley, Kan, Sept. 3O.-Last
nights heavy storm placed the
grounds in such a wretchcd cundi-
ton for field maneuvers that Gen.
Bates decided to call off the pro-
gramme for Tuesday. Instead of
the maneuver originally scheduled
for the day, il was decided To hold
general review late in the day in
honor of Assistant Secretary of
War Sanger and Brig. Gen. Carter,
acting adjutant general of the
army, and Gov. Stanley, of Kansas.
The attack on the convoy, which
was To have been the feature of
the day, was postponed until Wcdncs-
day. The morning was occupied by
a general discussion of the military
problems that have already been
worked out.
The storm which swept over Fort
Riley last night was one of the most
severe that has been experienced
here for several years. The wind
blew bowling gale, the rain fell
in torrents, and the cold was in
tense. Some of the national guard
companies that srrived during the
latter part of the evening came
Without equipage of any kind and
but for the efforts of Capt. c. Il.
Baker, the camp qnartcrmastcr,
many of them would have Jared bad
ly, Capt. Baker, with his assistants,
laborcd in the storm until long after
midnight and would not leave until
everything possible had been done,
The quartcrmaStcr's department has
looked after the comfort of the mem
bcrs of the national guard with the
same asSiduity that has been en-
ploycd by Gen. Bates, his stan officers
and the military unpires in rounding
out their military education.
Lieut.. Col. RaSpopoil, the Russian
military attachc, arrived last night
In the worst of the storm. He is Il
soldier who has seen much active
service and at once gave evidence of
his intention to see the bright side
of things. He looked around the
camp as well as he could, and in the
intense darkness his vision might
possibly extend ten feet, turned his
face toward the leaky clouds and
said: This is fine; il is always nice
to come to camp in rain" An in
fantry captain who heard it re-
marked: "a man who can say that
on a night like this and not choke
on it, is all right"

Strike Leaders AIlege They Fear n Strike,
But Companies Insist That They Are
Preparing to Move Large Quantities of
Coal-Attempts to Wreck Trains Con-
tinus-Won't Force Negroes Out.

Tamaqua, Pa, sept. 3a.-Aft r a
lapse of several days troops were
again sent through the Panther Creek
val ley Tuesday. This action was ia
ken because the turbulent element
has been acting in IA buiSterous man
ncr in their effort To intimidate nom
unionists On their way to work. The
presence of the soldiers had Il quiet
ing effect and although strikers and
pickcts were out in force there was
no disturbance. 1t is asserted that
the strikers in this vicinity are show
ing little interest in their union as
compared with few months ago
and that the distribution of relief
funds is far too small to meet the
demand made during the past few
days. Twenty-ScVen extra brakemen
have been hired for the Shamokin
division of the Philadelphia d Read
ing railway. Strike leaders claim
that the reason the company is hir-
ing so many men is in order to be
prepared in case some of their crews
refuse to handle the hard coal. Rail-
road officials say the extra force is
being hired because the company ex-
poets the coal traffic to gradually in
crease.
The situation at the plant of tho
American Iron Il Steel company at
Lebanon is unchanged. The troops
are still here and the ironworkers
brought from the south are help
ing to run the mills. II is said that
President Stcrnbcrg will not consent
to forcing the colorcd men out. Their
departure depends entirely upon
themselves and many say they will
stay as long as troops remain.
