Carnegie Library.

The annual report OF the secretary
of the library board, Hon. G. C.
Goodale, was made to the boad a;
its meeting this week and while we
have not room for a complete re-
port some of the figures win be very
Interesting to our readers. The ex-
pense account totals 31521.71. but
$36O.O6 Of this amount was for furn-
iture needed, and leaves the actual
running expense $1161.65. This is
within the amount guaranteed by
the city for the annual maintenance
OF the library. which Is $1,000.
The amount of 1144.90 was col
lected the past year for cards and
fines, and $767.53 paid out for about
800 books. In addition to this a
500 collection Of children's books
was presented by Mr.. T. T. Wood
ruff, the La Junta philanthropist.
There are now 1914 volumes in the
library and the board hopes to be
able to raise $1,000 during the coming
year for the purchase Of new books.
The report of the efficient hbrar-
tan, Miss Miller. shows what a pub

come, as there have been 8S46 read

BAR BANQUET.
Prq~ers County Bar Association
Meets With Judge Goodale.

On last Thursday evening the mem
bers of the Prowers County Bar As
ISOLATION were invited to a banquet
at the home OF Hon. c. c. Goodale.
and owing to the inability of three
OF the members to be present. three
outsiders had the great pleasure OF
being included in the list OF guests.
They were certainly thankful for
the business that called the others
away.
At the table each guest had a COM
plant and decree of court served on
him, which were unique and duly leg
al in form. but unlike most judicial
DEGREES were pleasant to take. Place
cards appropriate to each guest were
works Of art and furnished much
amusement for all the guests.
The banquet itself was one Of the
most elaborate ever served in our
city, and none has ever deserved or
received more evident appreciation
from the partakers. The guests here
whether legal or otherwise. were on
an equality and honors rested even
at the close. The weather was quite
warm but on this account the host

After the banquet Judge Horn as
toastmaster took charge in a neat
speech. and then introduced the var
ious speakers as follows: F. j. Nc
Carly, w. A. Merrill. w. B. Cor
don. r. C Goodale and J. X. Doughty,
who each responded to appropriate
toasts. Judge Horn then executed
the final decree OF the court which
was that each OF the others present
must tell story or sing a song.
Each took his choice OF the required
mandates until the host was called
upon at the last. Then followed the
ponded with highly pleasing rem
dition of one OF the latest operate

Lemon Psychology.

An actress OF some celebrity cofi+
tributed splendid little chapter the
other might to the psychology OF the
human aggregation whose penchant
for applauding heroes Dis eQualed only
by dts penchant for throwing lemons
at would-be-heroes. 1t happened I'M
Milwaukee, but 1T might have hap
pened In Chicago. and the experiment
would prove tremendous success
any time in New York. This actress
commands a big salary for singing
and mimicry. She made bet with
her manager, who dared her to Ego
on with her act at another theatre
ON amateur plight" ami a,asguising
only her name, she gave the same
sketch for which she receives a lot
OF mnr-iey every week. She was petit
ed with lemons, while the joyous mob
yelled. Get the hook! "and declared
she was the worst ever. What's In a
name? Nine of ten persons i'm that
theatre didn't know star was act
ing for them, and to them hers was
the ''rottenest' number on the pro-
gramme-'s so bad it was good" A
few knew who the actress was, and
0lluOJ was uIWJOulluON. -
they had not known they would have
hurled lemons in good faith with the
rest. The actress, whether she in-
tended to or not, proved this: When
an unknown or an amateur does his
on her best and a celebrity does his or
her worst, and the best of the one
exactly equals the worst of the other,
then the firstis ''rotten" and the work
of the other lis clever. You have to-
know who and not what it is you are
watching many, many times. Given
the environment, our greatest Shakes
pearean artists could prove the same
thing. The psychology of the lemon
and the arnlauding hand might be-
traced still father than the stage /
into amy field of human effort. The,
story cmcocted by the unknown COM
mands no attention until appropriated
by a celebrity, and them it becomes al
hit and gets copied into the back
pages OF all the magazines and week
lies. The person with name doest
necessarily have to be a genius, but
df he has the name he can't miss
making a hit with most everything,
while the other fellow must be gen.
ials to make hit with anything. TIL
moral lis: If you would avoid lemons
don't disguise yourself as an un-
known.-Chicago Record Herald.

1.-THE WOMAN TEMPTED"

s'The woman tempted me-" whined
''the Rev." Perry R. Campbell, who
deserted his church and his family to
run away with a pretty nineteen-year
old member of his flock When the
pair was discovered in st. Louis and
the former minister saw he could not
no longer escape punishment for his
crime. he unhesitatingly laid the blame
upon the poor victim of his own folly.
He did not even have that last YES
tige. of manhood which would prompt
thin to protect his companion and
stand responsible for his own doings.
"She tempted me, tried to do right,
but / could not resist her, and fell.
/ know that what we have done is
wrong. l have repented and will ask
for forgiveness. The utter selfish
ness of this wife deserter is shown
in the fact that he expresses no con-
Germ for the partner, of his wrong do
ing. He has repented and he will
ask for forgiveness, and if taken
back by his wife he will consider him
self lucky and will give no further
thought to the unfortunate girl. But
the wife may not be so willing to
take back this recreant husband AS
a matter of fact, he doesn't seem
to be worth taking back. 1t is re
freshing tc read from the dispatches
from Kentucky that the wife has no
sort of liberation for the 'sOul-mate'
phase of the affair, which she charac-
terizes as ''tommy-rot" Since Earle
gave SO much sensational notoriety
to the "soul-mate" and affinity bus
mess, this specious plea has become
very popular among a certain class
or social offenders. But in San Fran
