The New National Library.
Many people have Wumlt‘rml what had
becomeof themagnificmi ncw National
library building at Washington. the one
which was ordered by congress more
than nine years ago. but which is not
nearly finished yet. A writer in Kate
Field's Washington uncovers some of
the dust that hnsaccumulatcd around
this subject and informs the world what
is going on inside the great board fence
east of the capitol building. On the
point most of interest to us all. however
-that is, when the work will be finished
-—even Kate Field seems unable to give
, information.
It is certain that the great and beauti-
ful building, when once it is done, will
bathe largest and finest library struc-
ture in the world. it will cover 111,000
square feet of ground and will hold more
than 4.000.000 books. At present in the
Congressional library, which will be
.,
_ ‘ " starred to this building when it is
finished. there are 700,000 bound volumes
and 200,000 pamphlets. The number will
be increased to 1,000.01“) before the new
Edifice is complete. Librarian Spofford
says it will hold all the books ncmlcd for
the National library for 1.30 years to
come.
France now coniuilh‘ in itsNationsl ll-
hrary the largest numberoi‘ books. Great
Britain comes next and after her (lor-
many. As to ourselvos, it will not be
flattering to our national vanity to find
that we are behind even Russia in the
size of our library. Sln- comes fourth,
and we are fifth.
Atlanta.
When a resident of Atlanta wishes to
compliment the most hustling northern
city in the highest terms he knows. he
calls Chicago the "Atlanta oi' the north."
, That expreswsit all to his mind. The
Chicago man, on tho othl-r hand. alludes
90 Atlanta its lllt‘ "('llli‘ligo of the south."
Both are satisfied. and no harm is done.
Atlanta is indeed different from the
supposed typoof southern city. Not any-

A remarkable bit of litmnture is the
pamphlet published in (Herdinnylivy Pro.
fessor L. Quiddc, who fills the chair of
history in the University of lllunich.
Professor Quiddc traces out vividly the
career of the Roman Emperor Caligula,
showing his early education, hill eleva-
tion tothe imperial throne belore he
had reached the years 'of ripe manhood
and the insanity of unlimited power
that gradually took hold of him. Final—
ly he became” a maniac who throw all
Rome into a state of terror, an insane
man whose yoke the people did not know
how to shake off. The gradual progres»
of y the Roman emperor‘s insanity is
traced with a master hand. While not

the guise of (,‘nlignln, Empl-ror William
of Gcrmany himself is indicnlcd, yet

moo Pleas. The sole aim ofthe accused
was. how cheaply they could get" 01!.
They were not desirous of having Judge
Walshpaesegein upon the question as
to whether policy playing is gaming.
George Iammsr got off easily. The
charge was nolled. It is not known how
much he paid. but the a‘ coat is equiva-
lent to fine and costs. '1' costs amount-
ed to a good deal more than the tine. The
bills, it is understood, were settled by the
backers of the policy agents. who fig-
ure incidents of this kind in their profit
and loss account. and can afford to drop
a roll of bills in the court now and then
out of the profits gleaned from their ver-
dant victims. As a matter of fect.policy
in Stamford very nearly received its
death blow when Judge Dawns decided
the Pinncy and Lemmcr cases in the
City court. The fight and blueter and
impatience of the men who went about
writing policy slips has since given way
to met-knees. What little business in
this town is going on now is done in n
sneaking sort of a way. and there is very
littly profit in it. Policy men who used
to write slips on the streets and in the
stores in open view of the public do so
no more. They seem to realize the p06-
eibility of a term in Bridgeport jail if
caught at it again, and they don't want
to go there.
That “’cstport Shooting Affair.
(\Vaterbury Republican I
l
The station agentlat Sliugatuck on the '
Consolidated road" was shot Sunday
morning by a fellow whom he was try-
ing to arrest. The agent has also a
constable. Thm‘c facts are apparently
wcll established, but other features of
the affair are exasperatingly uncertain
What was the name of the shcoter and
what the name of the shootec? We
learn from a casual persuai of our trust-
ed state exchanges that the name is
Allan Allen, Arthur Allen. Constable
Allen, William Allen. A‘r'thur Alen.
Allen Allen, Constable Edward Allen,
Albert W. Allen. We might extend the
list, but the versatility and variety of
his name are obvious. The name of the
fellow who pulled tin,- trigscr is Hook,
HOTIW, Hooks, William lJurck, Williaml
llirct, William lluclte, William Huck,
William Murick, William Strausc and
Strauss. We are also informed by our
veracious contemporaries that the vic-
tim was taken to Bellevue hospital and
to the Presbyterian hospital: that he
died there and that he is recovering
there; that the assailant is a German
and on Hungarian: that he was drunk
and sober: that he was bound over for
intent to liill and for murder and that
the shooting was intentional and acci'
dental. if you are it in some [latter its
not only so but a good deal more than so.
