THE PUBLIC LIBRARY. The Library Committee appointed by Council at its last meeting held its first eession yesterday afternoon. After a general survey of the premises and noting the eesential and immediate requirements of the building and grounds, the committee wieely and almost as a whole adopted the Miggetions of the Ledger a9 set firth in Ih columns several weeks ago. 1'nblfc Ledger. The above would be amusing were it not such a serious matter for the editor of a paper to make statements so entirely contrary to the facts in the case.

In the first place, the committee did not meet Tuesday to decide on plans for improving the Public Library, but to take steps to have the improvements made that were ordered by the City Council at its May meeting, which action of the Council was taken on the recommendations of the committee. Secondly, as to the committee's adopting any "suggestions of the Ledger, as set forth in its columns Beveral weeks or at any other old time, just the reverse is nearer the truth. Instead of the committee's adopting any suggestions of the Ledger for improving the Public Library, the Ledgei suggested improvements that had already been adopted by the committee, and which the Ledger writer knew had been decided on before he ever suggested them in his paper. In fact the Ledger never did suggest anything on the subject until after the vnjn-oiements had already been decided on by the committee and not even then until after he was told by a member of the committee of the committee's action and teas ailed to urge the improvement of the library in order to help create public sentiment in favor of the movement. That's all.

This much is said simply in order that the facts may be known. If the Ledger writer were as active in promoting public improvements, as he is in claiming credit for things done by other people alorg that line, what a rare old city we might have PERSONAL.

Outlook For Wheat Very Poor Corn Plant- ius; Progressing Rapidly Tobacco Plants in (lood Shape. I Weekly Bulletin Weather Bureau. May 10th Very favorable weather prevailed throughout the week.

Work was vigorously prosecuted, and growing crops advanced fairly well. Light showers at the close of the week were very beneficial. Wheat shows considerable improvement, but it had such a poor start and was so badly winter-killed that there can not be anything like a full crop. It is S3 thin in some fields that corn is being planted in its place. Corn planting progressed rapidly and was nearly completed.

A large acreage is being put in. The early planted corn is coming up bet-tar than was expected. Tobacco plants are in good condition in most localities and preparations for transplanting have begun; the acreage will sxot be quite as large as usual. Oats, rye, clover and grasses are more promising, but winter oats are rather thin. Gardens and potato crops are late, but are now doing much better.

Reports in regard to fruit vary greatly in the central parts of the State most of the peaches and a great many apples were killed, but in the northeastern and the extreme western counties the damage is not so great. A fair crop of strawberries is expected. Hiram Thomas Sloup, of this county, and Mies Nannie M. Rash, of LewiB, were married Wednesday by Rev. Charles Barnes.

To the foregoing tho Manufacturers' Record would like to add that in Oarne-gieizing the American people one more step is needed.

Now that men can no longer be heroea without having imputed to fhera a "Carnegie Horo" motive, now that "it will pay" to be a frero, why not go one step further and build a Carnegie church in every village in America and ofl'er to pay for every now member, varying tho amount in proportion to the wickedness of the member before conversion. Surely if men aro to be psdd to be heroes, they ought to bo paid to become Christiams. The revival conducted by Evangelist Ham at Dayton, has resulted in over fifty additions to the Baptist Church.
