Amherst, Mass, June IA unique
memorial of Clyde Fitch, the dramar>
st, is to be incorporated in the new
library of Amherst college that is to
pc built this year. This library has
peen made possible by an anonymous
gift of S250,000 to Amherst, which
was announced several months ago.
Mr.. Fitch graduated from Amherst
n the class of 1886, which included,
among other men who have since won
distinction, Secretary of State Robert
lansing. Upon Mr.. Fitch's death,
he contents of his library-decorations,
furniture, and the major part of the
looks, were presented to the college,
md they will now be installed as they
we're formerly in the playwright's

home in East Fortieth street, New
York. The room will be long and
narrow, of the same dimensions as
the original and will contain the
carved Italian ceiling, the Della Rob-
bia Madonna and Child" and the
great oak table at which the author
worked.
Another interesting feature Of the
new library will be vestibule dec
Grated with eight huge stone Assy-
rian bas reliefs which were presented
to the college more than half CEN
fury ago by the Rev. Henry Lobdell,
D. D., an Amherst graduate of the
class of 1849, who was missionary
in Mosul. These slabs were taken
from the palace of Assurnazirbal, the
last king of Assyria, and are covered
with the representations Of colossal
NEUROLOGICAL figures. Into the stone
are cut inscriptions in cuneiform char
acters, which record conquests of the
king during the ninth century B. G.
The new library is to be built on
the eastern side of the Common, oc-
cupying the site of the present Hitch
cock Hall, which was known to earlier
generations of Amherst men as the
Boltwood Mansion. The general style
of the library building is classic with
a leaning toward colonial in its pro-
portions. It is to be built of Indiana
limestone and brick. 1t will have a
capacity of about 100000 volumes,
and will be one of the finest college
Libraries in the United States.

Management.

SAFETY first" will be the policy this
year at the Fairmont Fair and every.
fthtng possible will be done by the
Officials and the trolley car company
to insure the safety Of the thousands
that will visit the local grounds.
In line with this policy Secretary
John s., Scott, of the Fair association.
held a conference with Commissioner
sof Streets Lerman, in regard to the
repairing Of the old speedway SO that
tRutomobile and carriage traffic to the
flair grounds could use this route to
the grounds and avoid the congestion
that each year heretofore has made
travel on Morgantown avenue tedious
fand dangerous. The repairs on the
Bpeedway will be made at once by the
ctty and by fair week this road will be
smoother and better for automobiles
than Morgantown avenue.
It Is planned to have all traffic to
The Fair grounds from the city to take
the Morgantown avenue route to the
tHpeedway, then out the speedway to
1.-THE Fair grounds. Returning traffic
will take the shorter and more direct
froute down Morgantown avenue to
lEast Park avenue following the car
track back to the city. Thus all Of
1.-The traffic on the two routes will be
travelling in the same direction and
lthe possibility Of an accident from
passing will be reduced to the mini
mum.
The service offered this year by the
Monongahela Valley Traction company
will be- even better than in former
years and cars every few minutes
Throughout the day will carry the
crowds that arrive in the city over the
t%nterurban lines and the railroads.
a superintendent of traffic will be In
charge of this line for the Traction
company who will see that every con.
yenience for the accommodation OF
the passengers is provided.
Atgthe grounds. which are this week
receiving the final preparations for
the Fair, courteous attendants at the
