LIBRARY BOARD
MEETS THURSDAY
To ADOPT PLANS

Bids will be asked for the con-
struction of the $4,000 addition to
the public library in November, it is
believed by members of the library
, board. The board will meet Thurs
day night TO pass finally on the
| working plans for the structure. The
Carnegie Foundation has approved
the general plans, which call for an
addition one and one-half stories
high. This is a departure from the
original plans, which included an ad-
dition of two and one-half stories.
The Carnegie Foundation, however,
would not endorse this idea because
the characteristic of the Carnegie
Libraries is to have but one or one
and one-half story buildings. The
Foundation has notified Mayor Gar
retson that the institution is ready
to donate the money at such time
that the progress of the work de-
mands same.
At the meeting of the Board OF
Library Commissioners Friday night
the erection of the new addition was
discussed and the matter placed in
the hands of the committee of the
whole. Miss Anne o. Shivers, librar-
ian, was asked to be ready to submit
her ideas as to the ground plans of
the building with the addition. and
Jensen & Brooks, the architects, re-
quested to submit sketches of the
front elevation and the ground plans.
Miss Shivers is today inspecting the
Elizabeth library, and with her as
sistant, Miss G. A. Bovine, will visit
Bayonne's library. Miss Shivers will
then be in position to make sugges-
tons to the board Thursday night.
Though the new addition will only
contain a basement and one floor,
as does the old structure, the one
story will reach an elevation about
aG high as the top of the third of the
four-story Y. M. c. A. building. The
commissioners seem to favor a tile
roof, as has the new Y. NJ. C. A., but
instead of being red the tile may be
painted dark green. The structure
will be of brick and terra Gotta.
There will be eight windows facing
Jefferson street. four one each side
of the entrance, which will be wider
than the present entrance, and be
embellished with a terra Gotta de-
sign. A terra Gotta arch may extend
just over the door, at the base of

Fear Name of Cossack,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
London, Sept. 25 (By mail to New
York; If you want to strike terror
to the heart of an Austrian or Ger
man these days, say "Cossack." The
very word seems to hold a horror for

Remembering their exploits against
Napoleon and their wild warfare
during the revolt of Hungary, Aus
trians and Germans shudder when
they think of the Cossacks invading
their countries. The Cossack's cruel
ty during the Russian revolution is
we'll known and their operations in
China in 1900 were criticized not
