 Fiction still forms a large per cent of books taken out, but as our classed books are increased in number, we find them much appreciated and used by those who wish library privileges for improvement along special lines; books on mining and agriculture, with a large call for books of philosophical research are much needed.
 We are under continued obligations to the local and several territorial pa pers for free copies of their issues. As a whole, the new building and it's added conveniences, though rather far from town, has proven a greater sue cess than seemed at all possible.

''tGO VOS BAPTIZO"
 SAID JOHN EARLE
His Assault Upon Three coIored Boys With Milk Shakes.

John Earle was found guilty in Jus tice Johnstone's court yesterday of having administered the rights of bap- tism without having been regularly ordained The defendant is associated with a confectionery stand at the cor ner of Second and Washington streets. The complainants wera three colored boys, James H. Robinson, Edgar Rob- inson and James Beck.
 They said that they drove by the stand on Sunday evening and sitting in a buggy in front of it ordered three milk shakes. They were concocted by Earle and the complainants asked him to bring the beverage to the buggy. The boys said that the horse was a nervous and uncertain animal. They could not leave the vehicle and there was no hitching place.
 Earle replied that he would not car " the drinks to the buggy. The com plainants replied that they would not go to the drinks. Earle closed the discussion by throwing the contents of two of the glasses over the complain ants who were arrayed in their Sun day best, consisting of clothing of a light color and white hats.
 There is a good deal of oleaginOus matter in a milk shake, and when a drop of the fluid landed there remain ed an ineradicable grease spot. The clothing was brought into court as an exhibit.
 Earle said that the baptism was en- tirely unintentional and that he threw the contents of the glasses toward the street without noticing who might be in the road. It was a busy evening with him and he had no time to see whether he had a clear right of way,
 The evidence was heard before a jury, which after some deliberation re- turned a verdict of guilty of assault. Sentence will be passed today.
 Thus it is judicially settled that The milk shake hitherto supposed to be a harmless beverage nay become an of fensive and unlawful weapons

CORDIAL RECEPTION
 OF MR. CAMERON
The Candidates Return From His Southern Tour.

Hon. Ralph H. Cameron republican candidate for delegate to congress ar rived from the south yesterday morn ing after a most satisfactory tour of the southeastern counties. He was ac- companied by Chairman Hoval Smith, of the territorial committee Joseph E. Morrison of Bisbee. Dell M. Potter of Graham, and Nott E. Guild of Pinal.
 The reception of Mr Cameron in Globe. Clifton, Bisbee and Douglas was much more enthusiastic than he and his associates had expected it to be. They are confident that in what has hitherto been regarded as the strong hold of Mark Smith great gains will be made and that at least a standoff will be effected. MT. Cameron created a most favorable impression in all whom he met and especially among the mineworkcrs.
 Many rock-ribbed democrats vOlun- tarily and without solicitation signi- fled their intention of voting for him, not only on account of his personality, but also because they believe that his election at this critical fime would further assure the admission of Ari- zona.
 In his southern tour MT. Cameron omitted nothing. MT. Potter says that he is the most persistent campaigner ever seen in those parts. He said, and the allegation was not denied by MT. Cameron, that while he was at Douglas a religious organization had organized services which for want of a more commodious sanctuary were to be held in a blacksmith shop. The minister had gone about the town and drummed up an audience When Mir. Cameron saw tine crowd thrOnging to the black smith shop he followed, for he was hunting crowds He had no idea of the purpose of the conclave until he entered the shop Seeing what. was going on, he addressed the minister and begged him to divide time with him. His request, says NIT. Potter, was granted, and after the minister had sent home lot of spiritual truths, MT Cameron took the stand and show cd how his hearers could benefit them selves in an earthly way by electing him delegate to congress.
 Chairman Smith is very hopeful of the outcome of the campaign. He says that the chances of MT. Cameron have grown every day since he went into the south.

? p, m. Instead of f and two hours from to D. m. were added.
 The reading room was also opened from until o'clock on Sundays to allow the public access to newspapers and periodicals. All of these added privileges have been appreciated and commended by those who patronize the library.
 The additional non-fiction card which was adopted on April 1st, has met with equal approval and many children, as well as more mature minds make constant use of the heavier books where many less you'd other wise have been taken out.
 The Building.
 The city council having previously turned over the new Carnegie library building to the library board, the rooms at the city hall were closed on January 18th to give time for moving books from there to the new stacks in the buildings at 11th avenue and Washington street On Saturday the 18th the public were admitted to the new building for the first time and as many people as the librarian and as sistant could serve were in attendance to exchange books or get new cards for the privilege of taking books The largest number ever served in one day took advantage of the opportunity to see the new quarters and take out books. The number of card holders has steadily increased until, on the 1st of July, we have 795, an increase since January IS of 474.
 Much work was necessary to orga- nize- the library in its new quarters and at the same time give satisfactory service under new and much changed conditions. The encouragement of the catalogue which was planned for au thor and title entry throughout took time and thought. The funds remain ing in the treasury after the most needed furniture was secured, were ex nended in several large orders of books sent to our regular book dealers. The preparation of these books for the shelves occupied all of the available time of both librarian and assistant until their summer vacation.
 Among the most notable purchases for the year are:
 Smiths Dictionary of Greek &,, Rom an Biography.
 Warmers Library of the Worlds best Literature, 31 V.
 "Reminiscences of Carl Schurz.
 Life and Public Service of William Pitt Fessenden.
