Of ship which was commanded by a

the mate to use profane language or

Salem, July 13.-Perhaps the first
act which the secretary of state will
be called upon to perform in his Of
ficial capacity as the acting governor
of the state, in the absence of Gov
ernor Chamberlain, will be to issue a
call for a meeting of the Oregon IL
brary commission, which, under the
existing circumstances, he is likely to
do very soon.
The necessity for an early meeting
of the commission is made apparent
by certain provisions of the district
school library act, under which the
district school Libraries cannot be es-
tablished by the county superintend-
ents until the commission shall have
selected a list of suitable books for
that purpose and advertised for bids
for the furnishing of the same.
Under the act referred to it be-
comes the duty of each county having
a population of less than 100000 in
habitants to levy a special tax upon all
taxable property in the county for
school library purposes, which shall
aggregate an amount not less than
10 cents per capita for each and all
children in the county between the
ages of 4 and "a years. as shown by
the preceding census.
This money is to be apportioned
among the several districts in each
county by the county superintendent,
that is to those which have reported
to him according to law. This appor-
tionment must be made upon the first
Monday of July of each year, and a
report OF same, including the amount
and number of children in each dis
trlct made to the library commission.
Three counties in the state, Doug
las, Yamhill and Marion, have levied
special taxes of 10 mills for the school
libraries, but neither of these counties
can establish it's library until the COM
mission furnishes the necessary list of
books, together with the contract
price of the same.
The books must be selected by the
county boards, consisting of the di-
rectors of each district and the coun-
ty superintendent between the first
Monday in July and the first Monday
of August of each year, but such Sc
| lections must be made in accordance
| with rules and regulations prepared
by the commission and the aggregate
cost of the selection must not exceed
the amount of the apportionment to
| each district.
When the selection is made the
books are to be purchased through
the agency of the commission, which
is required to advertise the list and
secure the books at the lowest figure.
Secretary of State Dunbar has the
matter under consideration and VIII
probably call meeting of the COM
mission in few days and act upon the
J same in the capacity of the governor
| during the latter's absence from the
state.
Beside the governor the other
| members of the commission are the
| superintendent of public instruction,
| the president OF the state university
the librarian of the Library association
! of Portland, and w. II. Ayers, VINO
! was appointed by the governor.

A patient German scientist of a sta
tistical turn OF mind calculates that
the amount Of energy expended by a
person who coughs once every quarter
Of an hour for ten hours is equivalent
TO $50 units of heat, or the nourish-
ment yielded by three eggs or two
glasses of milk. Coughing is thus seen
to be an expensive luxury. The rea-
son for the waste in force entailed by
It, or one reason at least, lies In the
fact that, while in normal respiration
the air is expelled from the chest at
