But to return to our own Library and
'the manner in which it was instituted.
In the summer of i877 thirty citizens of
South Norwslk met in the Council
charnberto take steps for the establish‘
ment of a freeBcading Room andLibrary.
Thepopulationof the city at this date
was a little less than 5 At this
meeting it wasagreedtha a free read-
ing room was greatly needed, and a
committee of five prominent citizens
was appointed to devise a plan. In No
vember the committee handed in its re-
port, suggesting the formation of acer-
' porntion and the raising of a fund. The
latter was for the purchase of a building
lotand the erection of a building for
the Library. January 1, 1878. the socie-
ty was incorporated. and dur-
ing that year $1,178 was raised
by subscription and in other ways.
The members of the original corporation
were shrewd business men, for the most
part. andthey did much to shape tht
destiny of the Library. Under their
management and through their diplo-
macyit was that the Library thrived
and becamsareccguized institution in
the city.
Fifty dollars was the fee to become a
life member of the corporation, and
, mnual membership was 81 per year.
The life members were C. W. Knudsen.
Nelson Taylor, Eben Hill. Charles J.
Hill, B. H. Rowan, Edward Beard.

After Mr. Taylor left South
Norwslk. George 6. North was elected
librarian of the corporation and held
that office for eight years, until the
corporation was dissolved. He gave to
thelntsrertr of the Library cemented
services. inspired by a genuine public
spirfl, and his faith in the ultimate
establishment of a free Public Library

and public sentiment seemed to deny its
possibility. Beamugedseveralcourses

It was supplied with three New York
dailies, twelve monthlies and twenty
one weeklies. The formal opening of
the Library occurred September 80.
1885, with a public gathering,‘rnusic and
speeches from prominent citizens.
About this time, several donations of
money and books did much to help
along the good work. The Mutual
Improvement society gave .200th of
valuable books and the Misses Dawson
donated 150 volumes. in 1887 the cor-

Mon received the‘geyneronr gift of

8550 from the Gander club When the
number of books on the‘shelves amount-
ed to 1.000 the that, catalogue was
primd; this was in June. 1880. The
work steadily increased in scope, and in
1889 it was deemed advisable to lit up
the whole first floor in a serviceable
manner for the Library and\reading-
room, and 3600 was expanded for this
purpose. In September of the same
year, the new arrangement was pom.
plated and it proved very satisfactory.

In 1890 the value of the Library pro-
perty was estimated at $12,000. In Aug-
ust of that year the voters of the city ac
copied the proposition of the corporation
to assume the support of the Library, and
it was forthwith made 6m to the city
This proceeding made the, Library legal-
ly free to every resident over twelve
years of age. It was astonishing how
quickly the people realiasdand made use
of their privileges. They seemed to feel
that now they had a than in the owner-
ship. Within swath, thenssof the
Library quadrupled. .

that hobbies should be encouraged. They

reached, intellectually, through their pet
fancies, when they cannot be‘ reaclwd' in
any other way. Therefore it is that
various methods are adopted in these lat-
ter days to induce people to read, just as
saloon-keepers use every attraction to
induce them to drink, and ministers dc-
viae various ways to get them into the
church. Exhibitions of painting, col-
lections of natural history, mechanical
devices, talksbynoted men—all these
and other expedients are resorted to, in
order to attract people into the Library.
with the hope that once inside. they
may find it a pleasant place in which to
pass their leisure hours and a taste for
reading may develop.

In our Library, finding lists of new
books are typewritten. as also of works
on special subficta, as printed lists can-
notbeafferded at mascot. It is to be
hoped that a brighter day may soon
dawn, when the city will feel able to
afford funds for other user than the bare
running expenses of the Library and
that its store of books may then be in-
creased. But the pmsent cry is "hard
times." The current numbers of thr-
principal magazines are bound and
leaned; the back numbers are preserved
unbound. The stock of reference books
is considered very Useful for so small a
library. Special mention might be
made of the Century Dictionary, the
three leading encyclopedias, Appletou's
Encyclomdis of Biography and Larued's
Cyclopedic History of Ready Reference.
The books recently purchased, of which
The Sentinel published a list a short
time since. have been placed on shelves,
to which the public has free access.

Among the men who have helped the
South Norwalk Library materially may
be mentioned A. Blanchard, who
has been identified with the work from
its inception until the [nesent time. and
the into C. W. Knudsen. who gave over
”00 in money and books.

Iprenzo Dibble’s grocery store, in
North Main street, has been entered
twiceby burglars this week, but they
muted hardly enough to pay them for
their trouble. In each case entrance
was effected by breaking out a glass in
the rearwindow,aud turning the fasten-
er. .
Tuesday night about a dollar's worth
of three and five-cent pieces were taken,
and lastnight a few pennies were stolen
from the money drawer. Half a dozen
silver-plated tablespoons, a like number
offerkr,;several bottles-of soda water,
und'rotns edibles were also, taken. Mr.
Dibble thinks hie loss will amount to
about .6.

Footprints in the sand along the rail-
road lead the police to believe that three
men were concerned in the robbery.
They ate the lunch they secured on the
stone wall near the old Congregational
church. The footprints then led to the
mainline of the railroad, where, it is
supposed, the men took a train east-
ward.

(liief of Police Vollmcr went to
Bridgeport this morning on the trail of
the thieves, but did not hear of them in
that city. on the return he walked
from Westport to South Norwalk. and
encountered about a dozen tramps on
the road. Every one of these he search-
ed, but could not find any evidence to

Sixty members and friends of the Nor-

“stacker" of the season, given last night
at the clubhouse at Hickory Bluff. The
affair was thoroughly informal and most
enjoyable.
Calvin T. Pnrdy rendered instrumen-
tal solos on the club's now 8100 piano,
received in tho Gazette's voting contest
for the most popular society, and he was
also the accompanist of the evening.
John W. Wehle, whose deep rich bass
was never heard to better advantage,
sang several selections. Other vmal
artists were Horace Hutch, Herbert l’cp-
per, Frank Nash. George Vundlstyne,
and Chester 1". Tollcs, Jr., of Armenia,
and they also gave tries, quartettes and
choruses of the old popular melodies in
a manner that called forth repeated on-
corerfrem the auditors. [Harry Croes—
bock,of New York, charmed with his
humorous reoitatious, impersonations
and songs. Professor George Yoorger
and members of the club gave several
exhibitions in the art of self-defense,
and created a fund of amusement.
A mint extensive luncheon was served.
and Dr. I". B. Baker took flash-light

“smokers" returned home in Senator

as a missionary to China, and expects to
start next November or Dccomlmr. It
will be seven long years before she can
return, if her health continues good, and
she has perfect faith that it will, as she
believes herself called to that field of
labor. She is the daughter of u clergy-

leave parvmts and the closest friends for
the mission work. She is a graduate of
Simpson's School for Missionaries, New

that her life-work lies in China. "()no

in conversation with a Sentinel reporter:
