Library News

The matter Of supplying new" fic-
tion and plenty Of 1t and Of Just the
right kind that every fiction reader
likes, is quite problem in all pub
lie libraries.
AS so much worthless fiction is he
ing published every month by mer-
cenary authors whose publishers ad-
vertise it in large type and in super
lative terms, that 1t is often difficult
TO select only the best for public H.
brary purchases, The best policy is
not to overload the shelves with wha,
is merely new for much of it would
not last a year in the interest of read.
ers
Choice of fiction for the Pendleton
library is made from the consensus OF
opinion of honest reviewers and as
far as possible to suit readers Of vary
ing tastes,
Some time ago the Civic Club gave
a sum of money for the purchase of
new fiction to be rented from the IL
brary at seven cents a week. The
earnings from this source Is continu-
ally being put into new fiction.
We publish a list of the titles now
in the rental collection together with
the copyright dates of each. This
VIII show that there is always plenty
of new fiction for those who prefer
1t. These books are usually removed
from the rental shelves as soon as
they have paid for themselves ard
new ones are added in their places.
1t is interesting to notice that the
only old book on the list, copyright
ed in 1906, although recently bought
for the library, has proved so popular
that 1t has paid for itself three times
over Rental books which were pur-
chased last year and the year before
are now to be found in the main fic-
tiOn shelves as free fourteen day cop
les and are still as entertaining read
ing as when they were first purchas.
ed.
other library funds are also being
used for stories and the fiction shelves
as well as the classed shelves are be-
ing filled with fresher copies of the
books most worth while.

JEWS GET NEW
 RIGHTS IN RUSSIA

LONDON, Sept. 21.- Jews have obtained important new concessions in Russia for the period of the war, according to statement by N. M. Rothschild & Sons. based on a tele- gram from M. Electromagnetic. presi- dent of the International Commercial Bank of Petrograd, as follows
 Firstly, the Jews have received the permanent right to soiourn with right to purchase of property in all towns of Russia, capitals and imper- ial residential tows excepted, during the war.
 Secondly. rights of admission for the Jews to governmental scholastic instructions have been largely in- creased. These have been pointed out as being the principal deslderata by Jewish representatives who have been consulted. The public opinion in the legislative chambers and in the gov ernment are disposed favorably to- ward further extensions Of the rights of the Jews.'

 SUCCESSOR
 IS NAMED

WASHINGTON Sept. 21.-An ofi- cial dispOtch today from Budapest says that Kajetan von Marczymsh has been selected to replace Dr. Con- stantin Theodor Dumba as Austro- Hungarian ambassador to the United States. Dr. Dumba's successor for merly was Austrian ambassador to Italy and was a great favorite at Rome.
 It was learned today in private ad- vices from Lenox, Mass. the summer embassy headquarters of the Austri- an government. that Dr. Dumba had made plans to leave September 2S for Vienna and passports probably will be given him this week by the State De- pertinent. Strong opposition to giv- ing Dr. Dumba his passports was shown by administration officials but 1t is is-belieyed this will disappear since Austria has shown a willingness to comply with the demand of the Unit ed States for Dumba's retirement.
 President Wilson and Acting Sec retary Folk conferred on the Dumba case last night but what took place was not disclosed.

U. S. RESERVES MORE
 LAND AT ANCHORAGE

In accordance with an executive or. der made by President Woodrow Will son under date of August 21, the gov ernment has made reservation of sev- eral tracts of land adjoining the An- chorage townsite designated as fol- lows: A southern addition compris- ing 4O2.11 acres. an eastern addition comprising S44O2 acres a terminal reservation containing S9.O6 acres, and @ cemetery reservation of 16.9S acres.
 These reservations have been made in the first two instances to provide for cases in which it is necessary to have a larger tract than the size of the ordinary lot Several instances of such need have already arisen in connection with factory sites, and in one instance a dairy firm was obliged to purchase several lots in order to get enough land to carry on it's busi. ness, thereby making the initial cost almost prohibitive.
 The two additional reservations are being surveyed by Wilhelm and War ner at the present time an dwin be divided into tracts of 1, 2, 8. 4 and 5 acres each. They will be sold at auc. lion early in 1916

U. S. GUNS
 GIVE PERFECT TEST

NORFOLK. Va. Sept. 21.- Fifty new guns. larger than any ever built for an American warshap. have been tested at the Indian Head Proving Grounds and found to be perfect in every respect. The government was so sure that these guns would prove a success that an fifty of them were made before a single one was test ed.
 The guns are of 30 calibre and are fifty-eight feet and four inches long, They are more powerful than any guns now in use in the American na- wy and it is also said that they can shoot further and do more damage than the fifteen-inch guns on the Queen Elizabeth. one of Britain's greatest sea fighters.
 The guns will be installed on the dreadnaughts California, Idaho and Mississippi now under construction. The construction of the fifty guns at one time. 1t is said. will hasten the commissioning of the dreadnaugbts by six months.

The Dumba case has now brought a new feeling and has point ed the way to definite and positive action. The Dumba case has ex- hausted the patience of President Wn- son and no halcway measures will hereafter be tolerated, 1t is said
 Dr. Dumba is quoted as saying he did not believe Washington's request for his recall would disturb the friend ly relations between his government and the United States. Although the Austro-Hungarian government may support his position in spirit, it does not desire to voice it in official lan- guage.

THE eANeEs AND
 ITS TRADITIONS


 Yesterdays cable advices to The Empire told of floods in the Ganges Valley India. It was said that eighty thousand people were rendered home. less. and that at one point 1900 dwell lings collapsed
 The Ganges, a river of Hindustan, is one of the greatest rivers of Asia, rising in the Himalaya mountains in Carnival State. and formed by the junction of two head streams. the Bhargirath and the Alalmanda which unite at Deoprag, 10 miles below Sringar, 1,5OO feet above sealevel. The Ganges is navigable for boats Of a large size nearly 1,5OO miles from it's mouth
 It is an imperative duty of the Hin dus to bathe in the Ganges or at least to wash themselves with it's water, and to distdibute aims. on certain days. The Hindus believe that whoever dies on it's banks and drinks of it's water before death is exempted from the necessity of returning into this world The total length of the river to its mouth in the Bay of Ben gal is 1857 miles.

NEED
 OFFICERS AND GUNS

BERLIN, Sept. 21.-Travelers who have just returned from a trip to Russia contribute to the Neue zeitung of Zurich articles concerning their impressions of the conditions under which the Russian armies are fight ing. These articles are summarized by the Overseas News Agency:
 Russia has enough soldiers in the field and sufficient food supplies, but has no arms, officers or ammunition. The army units vary. Some of them are equipped excellently and make good impression. Others are just to the contrary. The men appear un- willing to serve and enthusiasm is seldom seen. The soldiers are inter- ested only in the prospects for peace.
 "The lack of officers is particular ly noticeable. Frequently large bodies of men may be seen marching with out single officer. In the new for nation there is only one gun for ev- cry 10 men. Such guns as arc avail able are mostly of old types and not repeating rifles"

 GET AWAY
 FROM TRAP

LONDON, Sept. 21.--Latest reports from Wilma, indicate that the Russian army there has escaped the coils General von Hindenburg threw about 1t by cavalry raids. AS brilliant as the famous coups of General J. D. B. Stuart and General Phil Sheridan dur ing the American civil war. a screen of German horsemen swarmed about both Hanks of the retreating Russians and stood astride of their main lines of communication but 1t now appears to be probable that the encircling fore es of Germans are too weak to stop the retirement of General RuzslSy's veterans.
 With the Rovno-Petrograd railway partly in the hands of the Germans, 1t is probable that the Russians will be compelled to make a further re- tirement, although their offensive in Galicia, which continues. might save them by compelling Germans to send endorsements to this region.
 The operations in the west are marked by the continuance of the great battle from Belgium to the Ar gonne. A duel between guns of all calibre along the entire front has now been going on for nearly month, and during the past two days has been particularly violent around Arras, in the Argonne and Champagne.
 An artillery bombardment in which both sides took part continued with violence to the north of Arras and to the east of Lorette. a Paris con- munication today said.
