TURKS HAD OLD LIBRARY
(From the New York Times.

It appears that trere exists in Con stantinople curious and ancient IT. brary of which the people there had practically no knowledge until the foll of the old Turkish regime few years ago.
 This librarg. that of the Hagia So- phia, was founded by the Sutton Nah mud (1142-115S). and consists of but two thousand volumes. all manuscripts none of which. it is claimed, has ever been published in print They lay heaped up in big shelves behind a trel- lised gate in a small hall adjoining the mosque. This library represents an immense value. each volume being val ted at from sS,000 to Sf0,000.
 There is no catalogue of these treas tres. upon which the dust of centur- ies had been accommodating, and there ore very few savants able to decipher them. The ten rarest manuscripts are kept in a heavy trunk, which has the form of a mosque.
 Trunk Holds Treasure.
 This trunk itself more than two thousand years old) is covered with mother of pearl. It is worthy. recep- tacle for the manuscripts, all Of which have an age of nearly three thousand years. Only . few great scholars, who live in Khiv1, Turkestan. master the language in which they are written.
 In this library there is volume which many centuries ago was pre- sented to one of the Sultans by the Shah of Persia Despite it's consider able size (ninety eight by 40 inches it is bound in gold. It is a Persian manuscript Of the sDivan," poem written in 911 by Hussein Biscara, a celebrated Tartar poet. Every page has painted borders and. in addition geometrical designs cut out of gold foil and brightly colored parchment This precious binding contians fifty two sheets and 104 large illustrations

port on Subject.

Berlin, Tuesday, June 3.-(By.. the
Associated Press.)-Prof. Hans Del
brueck, General Count Max Mont
gelas and Prof. Weber, German ex-
perts at Versailles, have drawn up a
long memorandum on the question Of
responsibility for the war which will
be presented as a reply to the En-
tente commissions report on the SUBJ
ject.
The memorandum argues the ne
cessity of submitting the question to
an impartial commission for investi-
cation and denies there was any
secret plot between Berlin and Vienna
to destroy Serbia. 1t. says that the
German government could not accept
the efforts of Sir Edward Grey, the
British secretary for foreign affairs
in 1914, who offered to mediate. be-
cause it doubted his powers to check
the war-like aspirations of Russia.
Emperor Nicholas proposal to refer
the dispute to the Hague also failed,
it is said, because on the same day
that the proposal was made the mob.
ilization of 10 army corps was or

Representation Of .Minoritie<
In French Parliament
Is Assured.

Paris, May 4.-(Correspondence OF
ton of minorities is assured under
the new electoral reform law passed
by the French parliament which will
probably bring about considerable
change in the strength of parties in
the chamber Of deputies The most
recent enactment almost abolished
entirely the old system Of choosing
members, which provided for a second
( ballot in case candidates did not poll
an absolute majority OF n votes IN
their constituency.
An example Of what occurred I'M
der the old system during the cleo
tor Of 1855 in the department OF the
Var where h present Premier Glenn
enceau was one of the candidates will
serve to show how the returns will b
affected by the present scheme. The
Var department returns four mem
hers to the chamber of deputies. The
Conservatives, the O~pportunists, the
Radicals and the Socialists each put
up four candidates At the FIRST bal
lot no candidate polled an absolute
majority of the 53.7ss votes cast, to
,do which a poll Of $3.50 votes yog!e
have been necessary. The Conaerva'
tive candidates obtained N average Of
1888 votes each: the Opportunities

while there is a. farm labor shortage
of ten per cent, the cities are unable
to employ all the men from the farms.
In spite of this, it is said the unem-
ployment problem is not serious.
Bank deposits have increased from
s22S,154,528.14 in 1916 to $255,8S7,-
431.82. The assessed valuation of the
27S in 1915 to S1~,424,S11,2S8 in 1918.
The cost of farm labor has increased
from $35 and $40 in 1916 to $50 and
the price of farm land has increased
from ten to 100 per cent.
The increasing Importance of farm
industry is indicated in returns to the
immigration office showing an in
crease in the number of farms from
$1,000 in 1910 to $4,000 in 1919. LAST
year the sales of farm property reach
ed the highest total in the history of
the state.
In manufactures Colorado's output
increased from S136.S30,332 in 1914
to 1910, 000, 900 in 1918.
Contrary to general belief the min
ing industry as a whole obtained no
great material benefit from high pric-
es during the war. cad and copper
mining resumed a new importance.
but the fixed price of silver and un-
changed price CT gold with extreme
high prices of materials for mining
tended to decrease h output of the
rarer metals almost in proportion
with the increase in the more COM
mon metals. The production in 1918
was less thai during the year pre-
vious. The gold production was fly
million dollars below the average
Coal mining reached the huge pro
portions of 12.s5s.e55 tons the iarg
est output in the states hisior. TIL

ID KISS THE BI.ARNEY
 STONE PETER INQUIRE
 HAD A MARROW ESCAPE

London, Jan. 2-peter McGuirc, sometimes of San Francisco, now of the United States Navy, imperilled his neck for the right to tell his admirng friends at home I've kissed the Blar- ney Stone.' iMcGuire was member of party of American sailors con- ducted by the Young Mems Christian Association to Blarney Castle.
 "Its bit of drop" said Pete af- ter he had climbed to the top of the castle wall and looked down a sheer one hundred and ten feet. It's by way of adding little sport to the game"
 Peter watched other Yankee blue- jackets kiss the Blarney Stone. The approved method is for strong man to grasp the candidates left leg and arm, while another grasps his right leg and army, then they swing him out over the abyss as fas as they can reach and let the intrepid one bounce his nose against the scarcely attain able rock. call 1t kiss and let it go at that.
 Not so McGuire He knew he could reach out over the lerge and kiss the Blarney Stone across the way with out assistance As he had almost at taned his goal, he lost his balance, and started down the one hundred and ten feet straight through the air.
 The keeper descended by safer route intending tofpick up the dead American sailor. What he saw was Mcclure rubbing himself and pointing heavenward with a sort of sheepish grin.
 The keeper saw where Mcclure af- ter falling sixty feet hit we'll out on a tree limb and broke it off. Below that was another brough to which he had caromed and below still another, also breaking the fall that the last drop of fifteen feet was very minor.
 The custodian became very angry. "What do you mean?" said he break ing off the limbs of the trees Don't you see that sign? Do not injure shrubbery.'"
