History Of the Library.
Each of the colleges has it's own library
and some Of them are as old as the insti-
tuition itself. In 1890 Thomas Gotham,
bishop of Worcester laid the foundation
of a university library by presenting q
chest full of books for the Of the stu
dents of all the colleges. which were
chained to the wall In the university church
of st. Mary's so that they could not be
taken away. In 1857 the Duke of Glouces-

scripts, which were priced at a thousand
pounds. a the faculties 'beseeched" the

from the different colleges in turn, and
they. with the vice chancellor, compose a
court before which are tried all matters
of discipline and dispute. The bedels have
charge of all ceremonies, arrange all pro-
grams and, according to regulations
adopted in the middle ages ''expel intrud-

The office of bedel is one of the Oldest

dignity. 1t is now that of marshal or
policeman, but 1t used to be an influential
position in university politics, and you may
read in the history of the university in the
reign of Henry VII of a struggle between
the kings mother, the Lady Margaret, and

WAY TO THE POLE.
Wellman Has No Faith in Peary's
Over-the-Ice Method,

NEW YORK, December 7.-Walter Well
man, the explorer, sailed for France yes
terday on La Lorraine to superintend the
reconstruction of his airship America, In
which he expects to reach the pole next
year. Before sailing he took shot at
Commander Peary. who has expressed
doubts as to Mr.. WelImans success.
II see that Commander Peary has said
that he has no faith In airships for arctic
"Well, he and 1 differ on that subject. All
the things that Peary may say will make
no difference to me. believe that the air
ship is the only solution of the problem.
ut is not unnatural for one man to have
no faith in the scheme of another man.
but the difference in this case Is that am
acquainted with both the sledging and air
ship methods. Commander Peary Is prob
ably the most experienced sledger who has
started in quest of the pole. but he does
not know by actual experience the posi-
bilities Of the airship. Personally I have
no faith In the -the-ice method of
reaching the far north as 1t Is now carried
on"
= Discussing his plans. Mr.. Wellman said
that he would go direct to Paris, where
the airship Is being heightened and the
car strengthened. During the trials at
airship developed defects which made the
trip north impossible. and so the real work
of exploration was called OF until all de-
fects could be remedied. Mr.. Wellman be-
neyes that the work Is too important and
success too sure to be married by an I'M
prepared start

When the dukes books came they were
so numerous, that they could not be accom-

Bodelian Library, was erected to shelter
them. and It still bears the name OF Hum
phrey, Duke Of Gloucester. In 1850 the boy
king, Edward VI. destroyed this library in
the zeal of his Professionalism. He was only
sixteen years old, when under the inf1u-

religious emblems were ''papistical and
idolatrous," and for that reason commits
missioners were sent through the kingdom
to seize and burn ''all superstitious books,
missals. legends and the like" This was
before the days of printing when all lit
erature was inscribed upon parchment by
hand with artistic taste and illuminated
with initial letters. borders around the
edges of the pages, tail-pieces and various
designs in which religious emblems were
freely used.
The commission that came to Oxford did
its work thoroughly and destroyed every
manuscript which bore a religious emblem
upon any of it's pages without regard to the
contents Of the text 1t Is believed how
ever. that before the commission arrived
some of the most valuable manuscripts
were stolen by the professors, but when 1t
departed the library stood empty and the
authorities soon after appointed commit

In 1850. ten years later, boy of sixteen
named Thomas Bodley entered Magdalen
College as a student. His father had fled
from Devonshire to Geneva to escape relig-
ious persecution. and In that Swiss city of
refuge Thomas had studied under Calvin
Knox and other famous teachers and had
free use of the libraries Of the schools of
Geneva. The fact that Oxford had no IL
brary seemed to have made profound i'm
preston upon him and. thirty years later,
when he had become a wealthy merchant
at the port of Bristol, he wrote to the vice
chancellor Offering to supply the university
