Guns of BattIeehlps.

In modern battleships the gun
is inside a barbette, turret, or
easement. and in that way is
housed all around. In other ships
there are guns mounted on the
upper deck and not surrounded
by steel walls. It is a mOoted
point whether the men serving the
gun inside the easement or those
working on the upper deck bat
terry suffer most from the effect
of the firing, for there are two dis
tinct factors to be taken into &C
count. First, the effect OF the eX-
plosion at the muzzle OF the gun,
commonly known as the blast
second, a violent shaking in the
breech of the gun at the seat OF
ignition of the explosive, which
shock is transmitted from the
gun TO the walls and roof Of the
easements, and thence to The
bones Of the head, ear, etc. 1t
is enough to remark. however,
that they are SO disturbed that
they would probably not damage
the drum OF the ear, although
hey do produce distinct concus-
cions OF the skull. spinal column
and the larger joints. and give
rise to headache, tongue-bites and

David Hutchinson, Superintendent Q
Reading Room at Library of Con-

Members of the Public Library Asso
citation of the District of Columbia, held
their last meeting of the year last night
in the lecture room of the Public
Library.
The feature of the evening was an ad-
dress by DR. Ainsworth r. Spofford, as
sistant librarian of the Library of Con
gress.
DR.. Spofford, who only recently return
ed from an extended tour of Spain ana
italy in the interest of the Library of
Congress. chose as his subject, Some
Observations on Spanish and Italian
Libraries" The observations cited by
him were made during visits TO hfteen
or twenty of the leading libraries in the
two countries
II found them all rich in the lore OF
antiquity he said, but nearly all poor
in modern science and literature In the
library of St. Marks, in Feulce, was
surprised to find that only 5000 volumes
out of its total of 4o5,00o, had been used
by readers in an entire year This was
only ~ per cent of the whole number
OF books. as against 80 per cent OF the
/, 900 volumes in the Library Of Con-
gress. which were called for by read
ers in a like period.
IN the national library of Spain
only one-tweifth as many books were
used annually as in the Congressional
Library The conclusion is inevitable
that the Oldest nations of Europe, in
spite Of their heritage of centuries Of
learning, are not a reading people, while
the newly developed American race,
whatever may be their choice Of books
lead the world In their of them.
The national library al Rome has
only $4,000 volumes, but IL dates back
only to 1875, being largely composed of
the libraries of monastic institutions.
whose books were transferred to Rome
when the government of United Italy
sook The place OF the temporal power Of
tbs papacy."
Dr. Spofford also described the rich
ness in books. manuscripts. and objects
OF art in the Vatican library
..Trayeing Students versus Travelling
Books" was the subject of paper by
DR. Ernest G. Richardson, president Of
the American Library Association DR..
Richardson discussed the great difficult
ties which beset the researcher in this
country, comparing the high postal
