UNCLE SANS LIBRARIES.

In an article from Washington
printed recently in the Chicago Inter-
Ocean is some decidedly interesting
information to the effect that in the
state, war and navy buildings are
three of Washington's oldest and most
complete Libraries. They afford in
terest in an inestinlable number of
ways other than the mere fact that
they contain books. They are archives
of the state, war and navy depart
ments.
Best known is the library in the
state department. wherein the original
draft and the original signed copy
of the Declaration of Independence,
the constitution of the United States,
and the articles OF the confederation
are kept. This library was founded
by Thomas Jefferson in 1889, and
consists OF $1,000 volumes and $500
pamphlets. The original draft of the
Declaration of independence is on ex-
hibition to visitors but the original
signed copy of that document and the
constitution and the articles of con-
federation are not. Corrections made
by Franklin and Adams can be seen
in the original draft which is in JEFF
ferson's handwriting. 1t is in a per-
feet state of preservation, and rests
in an open safe with an engraving of
Jefferson and his plan of his tomb be-
side it.
Washington's finest collection of
rare old engravings and naval records
is kept in the archives of the library
of the navy department as part of the
naval records. Thousands of valuable
engravings, paintings and photographs
are on file in this library. Most of
them include portraits of prominent
naval commanders in the history of
the United States, pictures OF vessels
that have flown the stars and stripes
and civil war photographs. This col
lection is equipped almost to COM
| pleteness. and will be invaluable in
time to come.
Last but by no means least, is the
war department library, comprising
more than 5000 volumes not inciud-
| ing duplicates. Most OF these are
cumbersome volumes. occupying much
space. This library is older than ths
government of Washington. 1t wa!
founded in Philadelphia In the early
! EOS of the Eighteenth. century. before
the seat of government had beer
moved to the District of Columbia
This library also has a large collec

FROM FAR AWAY AUSTRALIA.

An interesting newspaper which has
Just come to hand is the Sunday Times,
of Perth, West Australia, issued on
September 10, and at the time when the
great United States battleship fleet was
visiting that country. 1t expresses editor
tally pictorially and in every other way
high encomiums of the fleet, its Off
GERS and it's men, and says among 9TH
err things:
Apart from the spectacular stand
point, the visit of the feet promises to
have a lasting significance for Austria
ia. 1t is impossible to doubt that 1t
has cemented the ties of friendship be-
tween the commonwealth and the re-
public The unprecedented transports
of enthusiasm which attended the fleet
in Melbourne and Sydney were excited
by no mere display of force. They were
the tumultuous recognition of the rela-
tionship which unites America and
Australia; the reperception and express
sion of a common policy, common in
terests, and a common stock. Some
thing was needed to recall to our minds
the pregnant fact that Australia, in the
'fifties, at least, was largely colonized
from America. and that many of our
ed from the same country"
This issue of the Perth Times is also
of interest in showing that modern
newspaperdom has invaded such dis
tant land, although the paper is a
trihe unusual looking in comparison
with the general run OF newspapers in
this country. Its pages are almost one
third larger than those of the average
American newspaper and the paper on
which ii is printed is of a pale pink
color. There are "a pages in this issue
| of September 10. in three sections OF
eight pages each. These pages are pro-
fuse with half-tone illustrations of al
sizes and wonderful clearness. There
are many enlightening articles in them
on the wonders of West Australia as
an agricultural and mineral country
which are apt to make one think thai
it is really one of the golden garden
spots on the face of the earth, a few
of which, to be sure, are to be found
| in the United States. And by no means
the least interesting feature of the pub
| LEGATION are the excellent reproductions
| of the pictures of "a Australian in
fants, any one of whom would un-
doubtedly make things decidedly inter
esting for the other competitors in {

ID. A. II. DISTURBED.

Really there is a serious thing hap
pening in Chicago these days. 1t is
nothing less than a grave dissension
among the members of the Chicago
chapter of the Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution. Its disruption is
threatened. And the burning question
which is responsible for the disagree
ment among the fair ones who seek
distinguishment through the D. A. r.
in the Windy City is as to whether or
not card party is a legitimate form
of patriotic work. Or to put it more
concretely. is the playing of bridge
and euchre. officially, Of course.-con-
sistent with the dignity of a conserva-
tive patriotic organization? Some say
yes and some say no and there the
matter stands in a calm before a

imaginable.
1t appears that the Chicago chapter
OF patriotic danes has been hard put
to 1t for finances to properly admins
ter its affairs for some time past
This, naturally, was an unpleasant
condition of affairs which called fol-
treatment, heroic and prompt. In what
better and more pleasurable way could
funds be raised than through the hold,
ing of large card parties. with good
sized entry fee for every player and
suitable prizes to attract a multitude
to the tables? No better way, indeed
