DANVILLE JOCKEY AND TROT- NEW ADVERTISEMENTS OWEtl, PIXLEY THECOl'JITl. HCDSOX. The Infant child of Chas. Kanute died on A HALF JTOVR IX A Interesting Medlsy of Information About Book, and Reader. "How long will popular book, ordinarily well bound, last?" asked a Paxtaoraph representative of Mrs.

Ganiner, the librarian, the other day, during a chat about library matters. "Really," she replied, "we have not re-plaoed fifty book lnc the library ws organized, twenty-five year. ago. Of course I do not say that more should not have been replaced. I have laid aside perhaps fifty book that are worn out, which we have not felt able to re-place." "Who reads the books?" "Well, young ladies are great readers, hut you would be surprised If you knew how many ladles, who are wive and the mother of families, a'e constant readers of valuable, enduring works.

The commou slander that woman reuses to grow mentally after murrlaife Is dally confuted In this room. Ladles with several children come here almostevery week, and select works of history, science, biography, poetry, the better classes of fiction, Ac, and keep pretty well up with the standurd publications of the day." "You eem to have a good many etudents?" "Yes, sir, the student class, probably, embraces a larger number than any other. It include young people from the Normal and Wcleyan universities, and very many who attend the High school and ward schools of Bloomlngton. They consult works of reference, as cyclopedias, gar.elleere, and the like, a great deal "What proportion of the books given out are works of fiction "Seventy per cent, History, biography and works of acleuce follow In older of popularity. Religion comes last.

About 5 per cent, of the circulation Is composed of religious works," THOSE WHO HEAD. "Speaking of those who read," said Mrs. Galliner, "there la quite a fuir sprinkling of young men who are steady readers. But they do not pome as a rule from the commercial classes or the wealthy families. It is surprising that so few clerks, book, keener, salesmen and so on, with 1 SVVS OF LACSSTOXl The Futurity of the (Iradaate of the Wesleyan Law Clara.

The fourteen young gentlemen member of the law class who graduated yesterday, will at once separate and seek lucrative) fields of practice, some remaining In the great commonwealth of Illinois, while others will launch their barks In the wild west. MB. WILLIAM rt. FULWIHR, who graduated with the highest honors of the class, being chosen as valedictorian, and who carried off the first prize of 50 leaves his home at Lexington and will start In a few weeks for the wilds of Arizona on a prospective tour, with the view of locating In the San Francisco mountains, about a hundred miles west of the terminus of the Atlantic and Pacific extension of the Atchison 4 Santa Fe railroad. Mr.

Kulwllcr Is ecre-tary of the law class society. MR. F. C. BLAND1S, who, being the second best In the class, had the honor ol being appointed salutntorlan, has not yet decided where be will locate.

His homo Is at Rutland, 111. He prefers to practice In Illinois If he can find a suitable location, and If not he wlil venture west. MR. 1. M.

MCAFFfcRTT, whose home is atTowanda, 111., will spend a few weeks recuperating in the rural districts of Tow anda, after which he will plant him-self In the city of El Paso, where he may be found many years hcuce. MR. P. W. BARNK, the youngest member of the class, conies from Sumner, Lawrence county, III.

He ex-peels to take a trip west with a viow of lo-eating, and if he falls to llnd a desirable place he will return and settle in some county scat In Southern Illinois, though the exact loca-tlou he has not yet selected. w. h. HUOVVN, the permanent president of the law class society, resides at Hoopeston, 111., and has a preference for the 111 luoia law practice.

The young men who do read here are, as a rule, mechanics and students." "How long havo you been librarian here, Mrs. Galliner?" "Fourteen years." "Do you meet any faces now that you irreeted then "Oh, yes, sir; quite a number. The boys and girls then are men and women now, and yet, they come.

Many have removeu irom tills eitv. who Invariably call when in town. A nunibur of the leading spirits in the library niHiine-enient to day have been prominently connected with the institution since It was founded." "Does reading go by families?" "Yes. sir: 1 think that is true." "You seem to have miiny 'society jouug ladies' among your patrons "I am happy to say that that is true, and they are studious ana luotigiiuui. me society young lady is often hotter informed than ber brother who is eniraged in business, for the reason, perhaps, that she has more time to read than he.

The conversation turned upon the ARI SES OF HOOKS AND MAGAZINES. "Some of them look as though thay bad seen hard usuge," the newspaper muu on. served. "Ves," Mrs. Galliner assented.

"Books are handled here with as much care as In other libraries, and we do not complain; but the carelessness is amnzine. Dirty finger-marks, leave turned down every few pages, pencil writing at frequent intervals these and a dozen other classes of mistreatment of books are of weekly occurrence. The boys and girl are easily taught how to care for books, but witi. the older folks it Is different." "How otlen 00 you put, new uuirer cuidh on books?" "With some readers new paper nas to ne put on every time they bring In a book. Vs.

ually we cover books after they are out twice." "How many paper covers do you put on in a year?" "1 never counted, but it cannot be fur from tivethousutid." MAGAZINES AND WORKS OF ART HOl'ND. Mrs. Galliner called attention to the elegantly bound volumes of art Journals of great value and beauty. Among those noticed were Six volumes of the "American Art Jour nal," two volumes "German Art 1 reasures," two volume Ol "Uore uanery miu vw volumes of "Picturesque America." These1 work cost the library thirty to fifty dolliirs, each, in magazine form. The bindins Is in keeping with the superior character of the work, and is from the Pantaorafh book biudlnir establishment.

Mrs. Gallintir also pointed out nearly onn hundred and fifty volumes of magizlnes and periodicals, the accumulations of several years, which have been bound In handsome, durable stylo by the Pantaokaph establishment In the last few months. The work Is very much admired ami places a valuable collection of matter In a permanent form. ENDOW THE LIBRARY. The workings of tbe Library Association of this city will bear the closest scrutiny.
