A LIBRARY INSTITUTE AT ST.
JOHNSBURY.

The week of June 20-25 will bring
librarians from all over the State
and from other States to St. Johns
bury. Tuesday, the State Library
Association will hold it's annual
meeting for the discussion of bust
ness and of problems very vital to
librarians. The program includes
these subjects: The Need of Books
on Practical Subjects for the Small
Library; What Good Points to Look
for in the Selection of Fiction, and
the Art of Story Telling. There
will be lecture in tn evening.
Wednesday, the State Board of
Library Commissioners will open an
Institute for the free instruction of
libraries. The sessions, of three
hours each, will be twice daily for
three days. Mrs. Belle H. Johnson,
of the Connecticut Library Com
mission, will give lectures and prac-
tical instruction in various branches
of cataloging. Mrs. Abba D. Cham
berlain of Pomfret, Vt, will give
lessons in book mending. There
will be exhibitions of books and
pictures, of library systems and
bulletins, and of other interesting
material, to which all Librarians
are invited to contribute. Two
prizes will be awarded, of $40 and
IS for the first and second best
exhibitions of library advertising.
The State gives the instruction
gratis to librarians and teachers
and to any one interested in the
work. Applications for board and
lodging should be made in advance
to Mrs Ella S. Truax, % Summer
St., St. Johnsbury. The Commits
sion has made arrangements by
which lodging may be had for %
cents per day and board and lodging
for 81 90 per day.
In many cases the Library Trus-
tees put the expenses of the libra
rian to these meetings, believing
that the community is sufficiently
benefited by the increased efficiency
n the service of the librarian to
Justify the expense. However, the
aw provides that the expenses of a
librarian in attendance at the In
titute may be paid by the town,
.ity, or incorporated village in
which such librarian is employed.

Mr.. Pinchot is represented as in SYM

pointed out that since he has an am
pie private fortune he would be able
to meet the expenses which the Of

Washington. d. c.. July 29.-Auto-
mobilists undoubtedly will hail with
delight the invention of a former Ger
man infantry officer by the use of
which the running of an automobile
over a pavement curb would result in
the occupants the car feeling no
jolt. 1t is claiA hat cobblestones
and even country Ids may be nego.
taited in automobiles with as much
freedom from discomfort as is exper-
fenced by passengers on railroad
train.
A former German infantry officer
has apparently succeeded in solving
the difficulty. He has shifted the point
of elasticity. which formerly consisted
of metal spring plates under the body
of the wagon. to the axles of the
wheels by an ingenious lever system.
The result is astonishing The inven-
tor uses ship cable for hopping, but
even with wooden wheels he can main
tain complete elasticity over cobble-
STONES, country roads, etc, as the
wagon jolts are no longer up and down
but move in a horizontal plane for
ward and backward. He can cross
the pavement curb without the occu-
pants of the automobile feeling a jolt
as the body of the wagon is not to be
raised, as formerly, but drawn under.

The verdict is as follows:

find that he came to his death at E:20'

fired by his own hand. but whether
this was accidental or with suicidal
intent this jury is unable to deter

The verdict was so WOrded as to-
show that Mr.. Rawn was believed by
the jurors to have been responsible
for his own death, but the question
of suicide or accident was left to be-
fought out by the family and the in
surance companies. 1t took several
hours deliberation to reach finding
One of the chief points involved In
the long discussion was how to word
the document in such a manner as not
to deprive Rawn's family of any iegaE
rights the members might have under

Two of the six Jurors held out for

two others held to the accident theory

Beverly, Mass, July Ex-senator
Crane of Massachusetts, who occupied
in the senate position similar to that
of the republican whip in the house OF
representatives, was summoned to
Beverly today by President Taft and
had long talk with the chief magis'
trate at Burgess Point.
He was asked by the president to
make a trip through the west In the
near future, going as far as Seattle.
He will inquire into political condi'
tions in the states through which he
travels.
Mr.. Taft is anxious to have an i'm
partial survey made of the field and
believes an outsider can get and give
q better understanding of the situation
in the different states than the leaders
actively engaged in the politics OF the
various commonwealths.
Today's action is regarded as one
of the most important politically that
Mr.. Taft has made. The senator's
visit was surrounded with the great
est secrecy. He slipped into Beverly
ny uoA1A6 q AGAA sc NSSouA' A>oS N-As~-
the senator was seen was it admitted
at the executive offices that he had
been anywhere in the vicinity of the
presidents cottage. 1t was denied
that Mr.. Cranes visit to the presi-
dent had anything to do with the Bal
linger-Pinchot controversy. 1t is stat
ed with authority that the president
never has and never will consider ask.
ing Secretary Balinger to retire from
the cabinet.
Another significant move made by
the president today was the announce
ment that Mr.. Taft has cancelled all
of the engagements, tentative and 9TH
erwise, that he had made In different
parts of the country for this fall.
Important affairs of the administra
ton, it was said, would keep the presi-
dent engaged at Beverly and Wash
ington until November. 1t is expected,
however, that he will visit the Panama
canal in November, and go to Prov
incetown, Mass, on August 5, to re-
