Narragansett Pier r, l., July AT the second
general session of the American Library Associa-
tion to-day. the report of the publicity committee
was that the system of indiscriminate Congress
sonal distribution TO libraries rs perhaps even
more disastrous than giving books away 10 Con-
gressmen. For the report said. lin addition 20
fostering the countrys enormous printing bill, each
library is little expense of its to house
and maintain these books. In the last ten years
500 900 volumes have been returned to Washington
by libraries as being undesirable. Year after year
the printing bill grows larger. and year after year
the smaller libraries being deluged with a mass

purchasing 1000 Krag-Jorgensens for use on ship
board-a rather unusual circumstance. considering
the fact that this type OF gun has been officially
declared obsolete in the army. The explanation is
to be found in lack of funds to supply the entire
navy with the new army rie-the Springfield OF
1903. Already there are on shipboard the krag and
the old type Lee rifle. and Il is regarded as mad
vIsabe To have in use at the same time three kinds
of small arms with all sorts Of possibilities OF
fusion in the handling Of ammunition for them.
Therefore not being able buy the $500 rifles OF
the 1903 pattern which would be necessary 70 arm

Wife and Son of Victim Called
Ont of Danger.

Mrs. Henry Marks and her twelve-year-old son
Harry, the wife and son of Henry Marks OF NO
S5s Glenmore avenue. Brooklyn, who died on Sat
urday from hydrophobia. were reported last even
ing at the Pasteur Institute practically out Of
danger Mrs Marks and her son were bitten slightly
by the pet dog, whose bite caused the death of Mr.
Marks. They were taken to the Pasteur Institute
for surveillance. Yesterday DR.. Wheeler adminis-
tered the third treatment to the patients, and he
said that no hydrophobia symptoms had appeared,
and probably would not.
The dog which caused the death Of Mr.. Marks
was killed. The case Of the victim was pronounced
at the Bradford Hospital OF the worst ever
treated there. Mr. Marks died in great agony.
Dr. Wheeler said last evening that in the last
year the number of hydrophobia cases had been
unusually large. II had amounted TO almost an
epidemic, which had affected alike the States Of
New York Connecticut and Massachusetts.
'I can account for it, said DR.. Wheeler. in no
other way than that there has probably been a
great increase in the number Of stray dogs"

PRAISED SUPREME COURT.
'Tt IL AstOnishImg How Much One
Can PTOAt Even By Unjust
CFiticism," Says the
Executive.

Washington, June Associate JUS
tice Henry Billings Brown of tho Unit
ed States Supreme court whose retire
ment from the bench was announced
in court Monday, was the guest Of hon
or at dinner given by the bar asso-
citation Of the District Of Columbia
at New Willard hotel Thursday night.
A notable company gathered, those
present including President Roosevelt,
Vice President Fairbanks and repre-
sentatives Of the executive, judicial and
legislative branches of the national
government
Following the dinner there was a
number Of imprmptu speeches, in
Guiding one from the president.
President Roosevelt said in part:
Mr.. Justice, we have come here to-
night to pay the Just homage due to
YOU for your work on the bench, to
hank you on behalf of the people Of
he United States for what you have
done and to wish you in your time of
well-earned and well-deseryed rest,
many happy years. There is but one
thing better than the right to do hon
orable service and that is the right to
rest after the honorable service has
been we'll done. And, Mr.. Justice, 1t
has been your great good fortune to
to earn the right to do both.
"In all the world, and l think, gen
tlemen, you will acquit me OF any dis
position to needless flattery, there is
no body of men Of equal numbers that
possesses the dignity and power COM
bined that inhere in that court over
which, Mr.. Chief Justice, you preside.
Owing to the peculiar construction of
our government the man who does his
full duty on that court must of neces-
sity be not only great jurist, but a
great constructive statesman. 1t mas
been our supreme good fortune as a
nation that we have had on that court
such. There has been at times criti-
cism of the court, but think 1t would
puzzle any one to name an office, oncer
or institution of whom there has been
nc criticism. And think that those
among us who have been in public life
will be the first to say that while the
criticism may not be always just, yet
that it is always a good thing that
the possibilities of 1t should exist and
that the criticism should at times be
exercised
ut is astonishing how much any one
can profit even by unjust criticism; and
so | am not going to waste sympathy
upon the supreme court, because 1t oc-
casionally in this manner shares the
fate of our common humanity"

BUILDING IS DELAYED.
DilatOry Tactics of Insurance Conn.,
panies at San FranciscO Causes
Work of Rebuilding to Stop.

San Francisco, May 31.-Building op-
erations in the ruined portions of this
city have received decided setback
owing to the dilatory tactics of the
underwriters. Almost before the ruins
had cooled the owners Of the large
buildings in the business section
which had not been destroyed beyond
restoration planned for their speedy
and complete rehabilitation. In few
days after the great fire throngs OF
men were engaged in strengthening
the shells and clearing away the debris
Of the great office buildings and ho-
tells in the downtown district.
Wednesday the men engaged on the
Crocker, Shreye, Mutual Savings bank
and on the st. Francis hotel in these
operations were given notice that all
work must cease because of lack OF
funds. Accordingly the army Of labor
ers and skilled mechanics were laid
off.
Owners and builders claim that they
have used every effort to persuade the
underwriters to advance insurance
moneys, but without avail and the
statement is now made that owners
are as much in the dark as to the
rate of adjustment and payment as
the day after the fire.
