er on Brother Jones' Bill Crow.

Kansas City, Mo.-When the Missouri
conference Of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South, meets at Savannah next
August, the Rev. H. r. Cooper, agent
appointed by the conference to raise an
endowment Of 100000 for the benefit of
aged preachers and their widows, eX-
poets to report the successful compile
ton Of his task He now has raised
about $4,000, and is diligently seeking
the balance.
When the assignment was made by
the bishop two years ago, Mr.. Cooper
realized that he had hard work ahead.
Mr.. Cooper knew that his appeal for
the poor preachers and the widows
would have to be something out of the
ordinary to reach farther down into the
pockets of his people. After he had
toured the state a little while some one
told him about Brother Jones' old mule
down in Adrian county. He went there
and investigated and came home with
a smile on his face. Then he began
telling about the fOuT-fOOted patriarch
in this way:
Brother Jim Jones was a Methodist

One morning Brother Jones hitched Bill
Crow up to the plow and started across
the field.

Bill Crow didn't move. He just
turned his head and looked kinder

down. His working days were over.
Brother Jones saw that, because it was
the first time Bill Crow had ever re-
fused to move when commanded. He
went UP and looked into the mules eye
and saw tears in them He knew Bill
Crow had done the best he could, and
that he hated to quit. There was no

out into the woods to die.

SCIENTIFIC LIBRARY WORK

that year that the American Library as

card index and all the other conveuiences
which make the materials of the library

United States was founded I'm 1888 by
Unitarian clergyman, living at Peterbor-
Ough, n. n. Since then there have been
several thousand established. The first
attempt 10 support a circulating library
by public taxation was in New York
state. Il was provided by the legislature
tnat any county or municipality could es-
tablish a library and levy taxes for its
support, but soon IL was discovered that
the smaller political subdivisions were not
willing to tax themselves for such pur-
poses. and thereafter the state took direct
charge of the matter
The wonderful range which the modern
card catalogue takes is illustrated by the
fact that in the classification which now
obtains there are more than 10000 sub
Jacts With even so great a range the
regular user of card catalogue Will still
discover other subjects which might ad-
Nantdgeously be Incorporated I'm the list.
the library of congress has lent its
hand to the movement for uniformity in
library practice, and one of its staff is
chairman of the committee that is labor
ing to secure absolute uniformity in cata-
logulng. The changes which have been
recommended by the library OF congress
have been adopted by it and. inasmuch as
it supplies cards to other libraries, it has
proved great factor in promoting this

correspondent of the Chicago Tribune,
who telegraphed from Washington:
As was To be expected. this is the
usual joker. In the old days. with much
more primitive machinery, planning mills

Nowadays. and for a long time past,
the modern planning mills have had ma
chinery which viii finish board on al
four sides at the same time. There is
no extra process which would justify
the additional rate of duty. The result
is that the tariff on the finished lumber
is excessive, while that on rough boards
is moderate. The result will be to en-
courage the importation of plain sawed
boards because it will not be profitable
TO bring in the dressed lumber.
Every effort was made on the floor
of the senate to defeat this incongruity

GEES GOOD IN The PRESS.

The newspapers have found an able
defender in President Harvey Pratt
Judson OF the University of Chicago
who declares that the work Of the press
is as important and useful as that of
the colleges. President Judson is con-
scious of the fact that the newspa pers
make errors, but he marvels that they
make so few. He then suggested these
principles:
That the province Of the newspaper is
70 print the news without prejudice
That the observer who wallows in filth
and the idealist who sees only the blue
sky and the sunshine are alike untruth-
tul, because they tell only half of the
truth.
That the muck rake is an agent of re-
form when the evils displayed may be
cured by the airing, ana not otherwise.
That the sensatiOnalism which sttmu-
lates the imagination by the publication
Of facts OF tremendous Importance repre-
sents the highest good
That the sensatiOnaiism which panders
to the morbid Imagination is an unmti-
gated evil, defenseless and dangerous.
For a time cheap sensationalism ap-
peared to be the order of the day. but
the pendulum is now swinging the other
way and the paper plastered over with
sensational and suggestive headlines is
contemptuously cast aside. In discuss
ing sensationalism, President Judson
continues:
In discussing sationalism the line
must be distinctly drawn between the
newspaper which appreciates news value
and the newspaper which regards vio-
ience as the mark of a good story /
