and even course which will probably last until the approach of spring with perhaps an occasional spurt here and there There have been but few trans actions during the last few days and still less may be expected during the month opening to day In spite of a dull market property is being offered but still the noteworthy fact remains that it is rmt crying for a sale at sac rifice prices as already stated in the Evening Journal There Is considerable building going on In a small way This Is perhaps occasioned by the fact that building material Is cheaper now than at any time for a year past and small build ers and contractors are anxious to make hay while the sun shines or turn their mills with the passing tide Joseph Elsworth has sold to Harry Levy a lot on the northeast corner of Railroad Avenue and New Street A Iztnda has just contracted for the erection of a three story frame building stores and flats on the west side of Avenue between ifteenth and Sixteenth streets It Is estimated

general and local en thusiasm as the free library move ment now prevadlng the State It Is arousing the civic pride and energy of a dozen or more communities The beginning of the 'movement Is so hearty and 'spontaneonua that It augurs well for greater expectation during the early years of the twentieth century Newark Jersey City Tren ton Orange East Orange Madison Paterson Passaic City Bloomfield and Hackensack are all preparing for a campaign of reading and study The free library scheme has dragged In this State for years and New Jer sey acquired an undesirable reputa tion for tardiness and neglect in this particular The neighboring States were being rapidly dotted with free libraries many of them elegantly endowed but New Jersey clung to its small circulating libraries many of meanly supported and in consequence badly equip ped It Is sixteen years since Mr rank Hill the present librarian of Newark inaugurated the first free library tn connection with the Paterson library but It has only been within the past two years that the free lib rary spirit was awakened and Incited action throughout the State The most remarkable thing about the awakening Is not that municipal ities have cheerily voted the adoption of the State law and municipal sup port but that individuals have been pleased to make generous gifts to various libraries In response to the needs of tho communities In which they are InUretsed Andrew Carnegie gave East Orange $50000: Senator William Johnson of Bergen gave $50 (MX) for the new free library in Hackinsack: Congressman Charles Nelson owler of Union

appears that Bayonne Is not altogether rid of its alleged firebugs Detective oley says that there are at least two more of them In the city land that one or both of them will be locked up In Police Headquarters before night He says that very com plete evidence has been procured against them In connection with a re cent fire There were suspicions of arson Immediately after Its occurrence and Detectives oley and Griffin at once began investigations or various reasons which will de velop later they had an especially up hill Job on their hands but they stuck to It night and day and say that the result has been highly satis factory to themselves though it may not greatly please the accused individuals Max Sayers and John Braden who were arrested by the detectives on a charge of arson In connection with the burning of sev eral buildings seme time ago have been Indicted by the Grand Jury and are awaiting trial At the time of their arrest there was an epidemic of bam fires Af ter the

bud Jumped His Bail and Was Cap tured in Webster Mass Detectives Griffin and oley of Bayonna have caught Patrick Casey and that means that the officers have succeeded In capturing the man they were after hut he gave them a two and a half months run for It On September 15 last Casey was ar rested by the detectives upon the charge that he had systematically stolen from the clothing of workmen in the Tide Water OU Works Casey used to work In the works several years ago and during his stay there his fellow workmen constantly missed money from their coats and vests which were hung In a place prepared for them while the men were at work it Is alleged Casey the detectives charge ac cumulated enough money to purchas a couple of housee and he prospered so remarkably generally that It was determined to keep an eye on him Griffin and oley discovered they al lege that some time after leaving the Tide Water he began to visit the works especially on pay days and simultaneously the workmen again missed money from their clothing It was but a short time after that when the detectives brought Casey before Recorder Lazarus who held him tor the Grand Jury which subsequently Indicted him In the meanwhile Casey jumped his $500 ball He eluded all search for a time but finally Griffin and oley got upon his trail and lo cated him at Webster Mass This morning Detective oley telegraphed from there that Caaev was under nr meeting Rev Mr Tur er hur led home I rest and had consented to return to Hayonne witnour putting tne author ities to the trouble of obtaining ex tradition paptrs oley

M4 Bergen Avenue President William Bly was In the chair and when he announced that at the request of an executive commit teeman the executive committee of the County Committee liad decided upon a Joint primary there were objections from those members of the association who are ambitious to elect their own committeemen and some animated re marks were made The action of the executive oommitte of

member of the Legisla ture in 1884 secured the passage of the free library act which made it Impera tive on any city whose Inhabitants voted to accept its provisions to raise In the annual tax levy a sum equal to one third of a mill on all taxable prop erty for the support of a free library Many of the free libraries are work Ing under this act Paterson gets $15000 a year from the city Because they ac quire a surplus Intended for improve ments the Board of Aidermen held back $5000 last year which caused the trus tees to go to law for the balance The courts decided that under the law the city could do nothing else but pay the full amount so that the next appropria tion will he $20000 The Paterson library as it stands now cost $70000 It now has 33000 volumes on its shelves well

branch In the thickly populated part of the city It Is a well managed library and it has 8000 volumes available for use Its reading room is largely patronized Bloomfield Is to have a free library within the next six months Jar vie a prominent New York business man who resides in Bloomfield is going to inaugurate a free library In connec tion with the Presbyterian Church Montclair has a small free library which has 8150 volumes' but a move la being considered by some of the citi zens for a new bunding and the adop tion of the State law which will insure municipal support Hoboken has a new building erected within the past five years and sup ported by the people It has about 25000 volumes and the statistic of circula tions shows that the books are con siderably used Camden has a free library but not under the State law It Is under the management of the library association which pays annual dues and depends on donations It occupies the old Cooper mansion in the upper part of Camden The building Is ample for library purposes and is the most his torical old pile In the city but the library has not been as popular as It should be because it Is not in a central locality It has 3800 books on the shelves which Is a small number con sidering that Camden has a population of 102000 There is some talk about agitating the acceptance of the State law Ther nre seventy seven libraries In New Jersey nearly all of them so called free libraries many of them supported by dues and subscriptions The New Jersey Library Commission was appointed to encourage the for mation or munlttes of the i rti aai tton that Is available anl can do noth ing but build air castles for the future They are irolnx to make an effort to got some funds from the next session of the Legislature They consider that they have lots to do it having been as certained that there are 129 cities and towns In New Jersey having a popu lation of over 750 without a library of any kind Another positive Indication that the Interest tn books Is rapidly growing is shown by the demand for the traveling libraries which the ederation of Wo men Clubs was Instrumental In Inau gurating There are now forty eight of these traveling libraries going the rounds Th rty of these libraries have made the round trip of forty eight towns The demand for these libraries Is rapidly increasing and It would take another appropriation of about $20000 to secure sufficient libraries to meet all the requisitions that have been made on the State Library Commission Another evidence of the growing de mand for books Is shown In the large circulation that Is given books In small libraries Jersey City Is first In the matter of circulat'on Newark comes sec ond Hoboken i third and Patersow fourth Camden has tha largest circu
