Plans for the new organization and
management were soon formed Spa
cious quarters were secured In the
handsome new Red Men hall building
where. in the month Of May the COM
fortably furnished library, with the
books In their new cases, and the read
ing room, with Its tables well filed with
the leading periodicals, all under the
able supervision of the librarian, Miss
Lena Newman, was opened to the pub
lie. Steps were at once taken to en-
list the attention and interest Of Mr..
Andrew Carnegie In the matter Of a
library building. After some CORE
spondence favorable response was
received and a liberal gift OF $12,500
was placed at the disposal of the
board. Steps were also taken to Sc
cure the gift of a site. General w.
J. Palmer Of Colorado Springs, with
his customary liberality. gave the beau
tiful grounds upon which the new
building is now being erected.
That the people OF Durango appre-
ciate the advantages Of a public II.
brary. and make use Of the same, Is
shown by the monthly reports Of the
librarian, which are very flattering:
and It is a matter Of which the city
may be Justly proud. that the aver
age attendance in the reading room
and the number Of books loaned. sur
passes. in proportion to the population,
the records OF many larger cities. Dur
ing the month OF January the attend

A number of progressive laws touching
the defective and dependent classes were
enacted by the recent Minnesota Legisla-
ture. For the insane, detention hospitals
were ordered where a period of special
expert examination may be had before
patients are committed 30 the regular asy-
lums A State board of visitors was Gre
ated to inspect all public institutions. An
other law establishes an industrial school
for girls. Punishment for the parents
who by neglect contribute TO the Deepen
dency or delinquency of their children is
provided in still another act. The juve-
nile courts are extended and the proba-
ton laws are made more effective. A
hospital farm for inebriates is established
and it is forbidden to send drunkards to
prison for the first offense. Other laws
make education compulsory for deaf chill
dren render more effective the child labor
laws. provide woman factory inspector,
enlarge the scope of the bureau of labor
and change its name TO the bureau of
labor and commerce, establish free public
employment bureaus in st. Paul and Du
