Reference Work.

one of the least satisfactory parts
Of the library work is that of the ref
erence department. During the year
the department has been strengthened
by the addition Of a number Of sets of
magazines and of several important
raphies,cyclopaedies and diotion-
aries in various branches of knowledge.
Although there are some works which
it is still imperative to have and more
which il would be desirable to place in
this collection, yet the reference coll
lection is a fairly good one for a IL
brary OF this size. The unsatisfactory
part is that IL is possible to give so
small an amount OF aid and guidance to
users OF the library. SO far as the
multiplicity of his duties will permit.
the librarian does give assistance TO
readers in looking up special topics.
The children's librarian devotes con-
siderable time TO reference work for
the children and for the teachers in
connection with their school subjects.
All Of the desk attendants also. as far
as possible, respond to any calls for
books or articles on requested sub
jects; but the work which is done along
this line IS necessarily limited by the
fact that the time of the various as
sistants is almost entirely occupied By
the more imperative duties Of the cir
culation department and that thus far
II has been impossible to commit the
reference work 20 one person, who
should have special training in il. or

Card Catalogue.
The library has continued to cata-
logue its books, as far as possible, with
the help of the cards prepared at the
Library Of Congress. Every week we
receive a selection from the cards
printed covering books most useful for
college and public libraries, together
with cards for fiction and juvenile
works. These are filed away and it is
found that a large number OF the books
bought by this library are covered by
them, so that il is possible to order by
number cards enough completely to
catalogue them. During the past year
Il has been found possible not only to
keep fairly we'll abreast OF the current
cataloguing, but 10 recatalogue fiction
and some other books, especially those
in series. There have been 1852
cards added TO the catalogues for g.
$40 titles
Partly because the cards received
from the Library Of Congress are
thicker than those which form the
body of the catalogue and partly from
the fact that a greater number of
cards has been added TO the catalogue
than IN any previous year. the sixty
drawer cabinet has been outgrown. A
twenty drawer cabinet was first pur-
chased, but with the introduction OF

HalloWell High was not "outclassed"

as the game progressed.
The game opened with the visitors

Benncr's superb twirling and they went
down in one, two, three order. Lever
of Hallowell, landed safe one in the
outfiCld and took two bases with ease;
Bcnner went out. Dufresne made a
base hit. followed by one by Dixon
and Lever came home for the first
score.
The game progressed rapidly and

MARRIED A CHINAMAN.
Story of Ceremony in Which Bangor
Girl Figures as Bride.

Providence, r. l., May 29.-When the
friends of Miss Rosa Emclinc Marsh way
down in Bangor, Me, want to cOmmuni-
cate with her in future they must address
their letters to Mrs Wong zee Lee. Miss
Marsh was one of a happy mixed quartet
who came down from Boston to take ad-
vantage of the opportunities offered in
Providence by the presence of Rev
Charles H. Plummcr. who has performed
many marriages in which representatives
of the celcctal kingdom figured as prn-
cipalS. In this case the visitors were two
handsome American girls and two yellow

men.

Of the clergyman, accompanied by their
us How Cow and Wong zee Lee. and the
brides as Miss Mabel Annie Freeman of
New York, and Miss Rosa Emelne Marsh
of Bangor, Me The first couple to DC
united was How Cow and Miss Freeman.
1t was just an ordinary kind of a hitch.
Marsh became Mrs zee Lee, there was
something of a diversion in that one of
the witnesses while unmiStakably Ameri-
can bore an equally unmistakable Chinese
name. 1t was Maude zee Woon, another
white bride of recent vintage Charley
Loo offiCiated as the other witness
The ceremonies performed, the quartet
with their friends repaired to a Chinese
restaurant on Market street, where all
the dclicacieS known to the CclcCtial
cuisine were served. During the evening
they returned to Boston where both
grooms had fitted up cosy little fats in
the same block on Harrison avenue for
