THE SENATE
Concludes Its Hearings
on the Panama Canal
Questions - Will Hold
Executive Sessions.

Washington, April Hearings on
the question of whether lock or
sea level canal shall he constructed at
Panama, which has taken up the at
tention of the senate canal committee
for many weeks have been concluded.
The committee will now proceed to
hold executive sessions for the de-
termination of this question. wheth-
er the work shall be done by contract,
and what legislation is necessary Tor
the government of the canal zone.
Both the sea level and lock canal
advocates are claiming a majority In
the committee, by the narrow margin
of one VOTE. The committee is prac-
tically unanimous in favor of letting
out the work of digging the canal by
contract, but whether in one large
contract, or in several smaller ones
there is diversity of opinion. At the
first executive session of the commit
tee, held this morning it was practi
cally decided to take up first and re-

out to the stable to kill rat, taking a

VIRGINIA STATE LIBRARY.

Under an act of the last assembly the
efficiency of the Virginia State Library
was largely increased. Provision was
made at that time for the divisions OF
bibliogrsphy, travelling Libraries, arch
ives and history and the department OF
notes and queries. All OF these sections
are now in first class working order, and
the library board is prepared to assist
the public in any line of research under
taken for the advancement Of education
in this or other states.
Seventy five travelling libraries are now
located ia various sections OF the State,
and in addition to this number, twenty
five will be added within six months.
These libraries can be secured by any
community making application in due
form to the Virginis State Library, and
as the railroads carry books free, no ex-
pense results to those having the project
10 hand. The Libraries consist of fifty
volumes of assorted literature, and are
carefully selected in the interest of all
readers.
The purpose of the department of
archives and history is to collect, pre-
serve and publish valuable manuscripts
belonging to the State and its hopored
sons. The library board will be glad to
hear from any one having knowledge OF
valuable private collections OF manu-
scripts, and will assist in every way
possible to collect and preserve such
papers. The interest of the public gen.
orally is necessary, however, 10 perfect
the plans of the State in this direction.
Hundreds of valuable manuscripts have
been purchased by agents who have
been carrying on large traffic
in this material tor many years.
Papers sold to such collectors sell
dom find their way into public libra
ries, but are delivered to private parties,
who will neither permit an examination
to be made Of them or dispose of their
possessions. The Virginia State Library
has instituted an energetic campaign to
prevent this traffic which is rapidly de-
pleting the historical sources of the
State. The cooperation of any one in
this work will be greatly appreciated.
Attention is likewise directed to the
divisions OF photography and notes and
queries. The library is ready to assist
any student to perfect his study along
any line, and it is the privilege OF every
citizen of Virginia to use the various de.
partments of this institution for that
purpose. No charge whatever is made
| for information furnished, aud correspon-
dence on all educational subjects is earn
estly solicited.
10 addison to the travelling library
system, of circulating books for the bene-
fit of the publiG, the State also under
takes to assist all study clubs in research
work. 1t is also the privilege of any
person to borrow book or books (6ct'on
excepted for the advancement OF indi-
vidual study.
In order that the citizens of Virgins
may enjoy every privilege now possible
to them, / am directed by the library
board to say that the interest Of each
applicant will be most carefully consid-
cred, and, as far as possible, their de-
msnds granted.

 that aman's usefulness as a politician is impaired by marriage, and that the member for Edgbaston will not be so great a man after the ceremony at the church, but I am inclined to scoff at the idea. There are and have been so many great men in politics whose mar ried life bellies it. MT.

CAME IN THE ACKNOWLEDGES.

Deer Increasing Rapidly--Moose in Good Condition.
 Adironguides believe that both the deer and the moose liberated in the North Woods have passed the winter in good condition. So far as is known none of the moose have died. Then last winter was unusually mild; at no time was there more than two or three feet of snow.
 About February Sth there was @ fall of 20 inches, which did not last--rain melted nearly all the snow. The hill- sides generally were bare all winter, which is something very unusual.
 Moose, like deer, feed principally on twigs of trees and on bark during the winter. In the region about the Fulton Chain, where the herd was released, good-sized birch trees have been strip ped of bark and bent over by the anil mals. The question whether the Adj rondacks forest is big enough for the moose to roam in it still to be settled Compared to the woods of Main or Canada the Adirondacks are thickly settled This does not apply only to the summer resorts, such as Lake Placid, the Saranacs, or the St. Regis Chain, which contain comparatively large vil- lages, but also to the wooded region of the Fulton Chain. There are those who believe that the moose will get along as well under these conditions as in the. wilds of Canada or Maine, but look for change in the habits or the animal, brought about by proximity to civiliza- tion. A type of moose peculiar to the Adirondacks is looked for by these observers in the course of years.
 The deer in the upper Adirondacks are increasing at a great rate, not withstanding the immense number of hunters who spend part or the whole of the open season there, and one rea- son advanced for this increase is the great falling off in the number of lum- Der has been cut away. Formerly, the men in these camps lived practically on venison in and out of season, and thou sands of deer were kiiled each year to supply their wants. The camps being fewer, the slaughter has been great | ly decreased. Adirondack hunters say that the smaller ur-bearing animals in this State are growing scarce, and the buyers for the large fur houses are complaining that they can get few skins Our laws governing trapping are not strict, although for many years the slaughter of the little fur bearing animals was allowed to 20 on unimped- ed, and now a large proportion of them have gone the way of the beaver. The The latter were nearly exterminated, and a closed season was declared to save few, if possible, and the results have been rather satisfactory. The passing of smaller animals should serve as a leson and demonstrate that it is necessary to protect our big game more closely-J. P. Fletcher in Recreation.
