ROOM OPEN
ON SUNDAY
MOVE TO AFFECT THE HOURS AT
THE CARNEGIE LIBRARY
PRESENTED TO CLUBS.
Browning Club at Its Meeting Last
Night Endorsed Plan, Also Plan
to Allow Gard Holder Two Books
Instead of One in Certain Lines of
Reading Matter.

At the meeting of the Browning
club last night, at the home of Rev.
and Mrs. A. C. Hogbin, Sixth and
Grand avenue, Mrs. Eta Roach, for
mer librarian of the Albany county
free public library, presented two pc
titions for the action of the club, ask
ing the board of trustees of he Car
negie library to keep the library and
reading rooms open Sunday alter
Moons and evenings until 10 O'Clock and
to allow the holder of a library card
to draw two books at one time-one
book of fiction and one non-hction.
Mrs. Roach will present the petitions
to all the other social and literary
organizations in the city. The
Browning club endorsed the move
ments, accepting both petitions.
1t is %contended that the reading
rooms should be opened Sunday for
the benefit of those whose duties will
not permit them the use of the books
of the library on other days of the
week. This petition, Mrs. Roach says,
has been presented to at least 500
men of the city, representing almost
every walk in life, and they have en-
dorsed it, with two exceptions so far.
One of these is a gentleman who is
oppose to the opening on the Lords
day as a violation of the unwritten
Sunday law of humanity. The other,
a prominent pastor, would not oppose
the opening of the reading room from
7 to 8 o'clock in the evening, but fears
that to keep it open longer would in
terfere with church attendance.
The petition to allow the holders OF
cards to take two books, Il OF fctior
and the other non-iction, is said tc
have been tried in many places an
to have increased the reading at leas
20 per cent. 1t is held that a reade

DECISION UNPOPULAR.
Ten-Round Fight at Denver Was De-
cIared a Draw.

Denver, Colo, Jan. 30.-At the
Eagles smoker last evening "Muggsy"
ShoeI of Cheyenne and kid" Seiger
of this city went ten rounds to a draw.
All through the bout the Cheyenne
boy appeared to have very much the
best of it and finished strong and
without a scratch, while his opponent
bore every indication of being pretty
badly handled. The decision of the
referee was unpopular even with the
Denver man, who admit that the award
should have gone to Shoel. The par
tisans of the latter are much wrought
up over the action of the referee and
declare that "Muggsy" was buncoed
out of the decision, as he outclassed
Seiger in every respect.

fell and he fell after it. He was taken
