Brought to public notice al Sun
day meeting of the Community Service
some few weeks ago by Or. Persons,
the need of public library in Annap-
oils, and the lamentable absence of
such an institution. has aroused pub
lie sentiment. and there is now every
reason to believe the tiny grain of
mustard seed has taken root and
Will bring forth abundaRtly.
Several communications have ap-
peared in these columns favoring the
establishment here of public library,
and over five hundred books were
pledged some days ago. The city
authorities have granted the use of the
large lower room for the purpose, and
it is expected TO have the library open
shortly.
Speaking of the needs in Annapolis
of a public library, today, William l..
Marcy had the following to say:
do we need a public library? Most
assuredly! for of all the animals, man
is the only one who has no gift of
what is known as instinct. he alone
must learn from the experience Of
others. BY way of explanation, let us
take a young hunting dog, puppy,
shut him up and keep him there until
fully grown. Then take him out and
try to hunt with him; heiwill be awk

stand his first covey OF birds like
veteran and in trial or two will hunt
as well for the same number of les
sons as his brothers and sisters.

OFFICE BILL GOES
TO IT'S 3RD READING

After rather rough shedding in the
Senate yesterday afternoon, Senator
Brady's bill authorizing an appropria
ton of 100000 for the erection of a
state Memorial and Office Building"
in Annapolis. in which all State Of
fees would be located, was finally
passed to the third reading file. As
indicated in yesterdays issue Of The
Evening Capital, several attempts
were made to kill the bill when it
came up as the special order of busi-
ness for the day. While these efforts
were unsuccessful, the ultimate fate
of the measure seems to be I'm doubt.
although the chances are still strong
for its passage by the Senate.

ed on bond for appearance before the
Circuit Court of Anne Arundel coun-

The local charge against Silber
was brought by Max Snyder, shoe
dealer of West street. by whom he
had been employed as a clerk.
Snyder was confined to his home
for a few days on account of i'll
ness. and when he returned to his
business he found that Liberty Bonds
to the amount of 5000 and pair of
diamond earrings, valued at $1,000 had

SEVERAL OTHER BILLS
OF GENERAL INTEREST

Members of the House OF Delegates
are in for what will perhaps be lho
warmest fight that has marked this
session OF the Legislature the wet"
and dry" legislation
There are a number of bills bearing
upon such legislation including the
measure recently introduced which
would legalize the brewing of 3 80 per
cent beer. The first round of the big
fight got under way at l o'clock this
afternoon, when the bill introduced by
Delegate Mcbride. which provides for
the enforcement in Maryland Of the
Volstead Federal law, prohibiting the
handling OF liquors having more than
one-half of one per cent alcoholic con-
tent, came up for it second reading.
The lines are tightly drawn between
the "wet" and dry" forces, and bat
tie royal is expected.
Both sides are claiming they have
enough votes to win out 1t looks
now as though the turn the race-track
situation has taken will have a ma
terial effect upon the strength of the
anti-prohibition forces, for the open
threat has been made since the refer
endum amendment 10 the racing leg
islation failed. that the liquor inter
ests will have a stiff proposition ON,
their hands
Scarcely had arguments got under
way after the bill came before tho
House, than a recess was taken until
$50, at which time the fight was re-
sumed with prospects of long-drawn
out debate.
After Small Taxpayers
Every person in Maryland owning
as much as 5000 worth OF personal
property, is interested in a bin intro
duced by Senator Mcintosh. This
compels all such persons to make
return to the county commissioners in
each county, which must be sworn 70
and based on this, tax is to be lev
led. The form is TO be prescribed by
the State Tax Commission This first
return must be made next September
and then every two years thereafter.
The Senator believes that when prop
erly enforced the States income will
be increased by several millions.
Against Tractors on Road
A bill introduced in the Senate so
amends the road law as to exempt
from the provisions in the section de-
fining the kind of motor vehicles from
using the state roads, tractors or trac-
tion engines whose driving wheels are
equipped with standard cleats used
exclusively for agricultural purposes
or for hauling threshing outfits, clover
hullers. hay balers, binders and other
farming implements.

CITY TO USE FUND
FOR STREET REPAIRS
Wiegard Bill Provides Utilizing
Unexpended Balance Of
1906 Bond Issue
AMOUNTS TO OVER S1,7o0

The bill which has been introduced
in the House of Delegates by Dele
gate Wiegard. of the Anne Arundel
delegation. will assist in material
degree in carrying on much needed
street Improvements during the
spring and summer
The Wiegard bill is more in the
nature of an enabling measure in
other words. to make doubly sure that
the Council is vested with ample au-
thority to expend certain funds now
on hand. Briefly stated. the bill au-
thorizes the Council to spend the un-
expended balance of bond issue of
$4,000, authorized by an Act of the
Legislature of 1906, for street inn
provements. Many streets were paved
or otherwise repaired and improved.

this loan. There now exists an un-
expended balance of $1.700 of these
funds, with accrued interest, on de-

frequently discussed at meetings of
the Council, and, finally, City Coun-
selor Rullman was asked to give his
opinion on the question. Speaking of
the matter, Counselor Rullman said
today that there is no doubt of the
city's authority to use the money on
hand, but that the Wiegard bill will
make this phase of the question
certainty.
Street Improvement Plans
The budget of street improvements
contemplated includes principally the
paving of Francis street. one of the
few city thoroughfares that have cob
BILE stone. and resurfacing of Charles,
Conduit, Market and Franklin streets
which were macademized a few years
ago. Franklin street is in an espe-
cialiy deplorable condition. and an
even stronger argument for placing
it in Al shape, is its proximity to the
Emergency Hospital. Cathedral street,
is another thoroughfare which many
have urged should have a better
grade of paving. This runs directly
past the hospital, and it's rubble
stone paving causes much noise. And
again referring to Franklin street the
paving of this. together with East
street, is strongly urged, because both
of them radiate directly from State
Circle, and the Capitol.
