A Wild Metaphor.

The mixed metaphor has for years
been considered what is technically
known as peach. but long ago an en-
bryo Henry Clay, contestant for
oratorical honors in the University of
Michigan, sprung one so much more
rapid in the metaphor race than its
rivals that it may be said to win in a
walk. Rising up on his tiptoes and
swelling out his chest like a pouter
pigeon, the young orator exclaimed as
though he would his words might 60

BY Librarians.
WARM DISCUSSION AROSE.
1T WAS IN REFERENCE TO THE
PUBLICATION OF STATISTICS
ON THE SALARIES RECEIVED
BY LIBRARIANS.

indianapolis, Oct 19.-After a hot
discussion on the question of printing
and distributing a report on the sub
ject of librarians salaries, the Indiana
Library association adjourned late Fri
day.
The report dealt with statistics from
the different libraries of the state as
to wages being paid librarians and
their assistants. The argument was
entered into rather heatedly by Miss
Mary Ahern of Chicago. former state
librarian of Indiana, and Miss Merica
Hoagland and Miss Eliza Browning of
indianapolis.
A sufficient sentiment prevailed
against the proposition to send the re-
port to the board of trustees and a
compromise was agreed upon. Chal-
mers Hadley. secretary of the public H.
brary commission, settled the matter
by suggesting that the report be placed
on file in the library commission of
flee. The suggestion was adopted.
The committee in it's report indi-
Gated that the Indiana librarians are
being underpaid. The committee
showed that the average wages of
trained librarians in Indiana is $710.G4
year.
The association adopted resolution
approving the suggestions Of State Ii
brarian Demarchus c. Brown that the
state needs a separate building for the
accommodation Of it's state library and
museum.
The association elected the following
new officers: Harlow Lindley, profes
sor Of history at Earlham college, pres,
ident: Miss Kate Chapman of Anderson
vice president; Miss Ella Corwin OF
Elkhart, secretary; Demarcus c. Brown
treasurer.
