LIBRARY ASSOCIATION An Interesting Mecting and Discussion Last Night ata Library Would Cost—Question Age Limit for Readers. The third monthly meeting of the Wash. ington Library Association, which has for its object the establishment of a free pub- lic library and reading room in this city, was called to order last evening in the Columbiah ~Upiversity building, corner of 15th and H; northwest, by the presi- dent, Mr. A. R. Spofford. While the at- tendance was only fair enthusiasm was prominent. After the reading of the minutes of the last meeting by the secretary, Mr. Oliver L. Fassig, the president announced the resig- nation of Mr. Prince as chairman of the committee on lending books, and the ap- pointment of Mr, Presnell in his stead. Rufus Thayer and Mary Boyd Cummings were then elected members of the asso- ciation. Mr. Spofford next called for a further report of the free public library commit- tee from its chairman, General A, W. Greely. General Greely stated that since the last meeting of the association he had seen as many persons as he conveniently could in relation to the library and had secured pledges amounting to a little more than $1,000, One person had promised to give as great a sum as would any other person, and promises of a liberal supply of books had been made by several others. Two lists are now being circulated for the pur- pose of securing subscribers to support the project. General Greely went on to say that he though a reading room could be opened by February 1 next, but he did not con- sider it advisable to appeal to the public through the press fer assistance until some time in January. If each librarian in the city would pledge $1 General Greely thought that would help out to a great extent. The majority of the persons spoke! to, according to General Greely, were heart: ily in favor of the project, especially after the fact had been pointed out to them that probably every library in Washington closes its dours at 4 p.m. daily, and then street corners and saloons are about the only places left for young people. General Greely suggested that the board of mana- gers for the library should be selected by the subscribers at large. He went on to say that when the idea was first broached he thought $2,000 per year should be se- cured to start the library, but since then the conclusion had been reached that $4,000 would be the proper amount, and that sum, it was thought, could be raised easily. As soon as the library is established the attenticn of the Commissioners should be enguged, said General Greely, as it is @ public corcern. The promoters are work- ing in a very modest way. They are not putting up a building, but intend merely to rent rooms in the central section of the city. General Greely closed by expressing the hope that by the next meeting the association would have organized and a termined upon the time for opening the library. Dr. Cyrus Adler of the Smithsonian Insti- tution volunteered his assistance to aid the project in any desired manner. He was of the opinion that the various districts cf the city should be worked up until the public is thoroughly informed as to the library. Gen. Greely asked for suggestions show- ing what could be done on $1,500 a year. Mr. Farquhar remarked that $1,500 is the sum now appropriated for the Patent Of- fice Library. According to Dr. Adler, that amount would be consumed alone in taking care of such books as might be given to the library. To keep the library open from 8 a.m, till late at night, he added, would require more than one attendant, and con- sequently more money. Things might be run in a very joyful manner, however, on $4,000, It would be a wise move, said Dr. Adler, not to supply magazines for the reading room, as a smail set of such would run away with $500, and that ought to be avoided. If Gen. Greely alone could. raige over a thousand dollars, stated Dr. Adler, the rest of the people in Washington ought to be able to easily secure the remaining sum necessary to make $4,000. Col. W. H. Lowdermilk was of the opin- jon that as the library bill has met with calamity in Congress, the District Com- missioners should be asked to co-operate with the association to secure the passage of a bill levying a tax on the people of the District alone to support a free library. Such a bill, he thought, would pass 1 House ard Senate at any time without op- position, if it provided to tax only the peo- ple of the District of Columbia. Gen. Greely suggested that the lMbrary might be run at the start on $1,200 a year. He asked those present what age limit for free access should be fixed. Mr. Cutter re- plied that age limit ts a fraud and that it is better to lose a few books than to adopt an age limit. In Denver, said Mr. Cutte! the libraries make a specialty of children’ books. Mr, Howard Clarke said that he had been on a committee in charge of a reading room for young men in Brooklyn. No age limit bad been fixed and the small boys took possession and raised such bed- lam that the older ones were driven cut. Mr. Clarke advised an age limit until a stronger following of older young people had been secured, when it might be re- moved. After considerable unimportant discus- sicn connected with the project, the elec: tion of officers to serve for the ensuing year was proceeded with. On motion of Mr. F. H. Parsons the old officers were unanimously re-elected. They are: Mr. Spofford, president; Dr. Adler, first vice president; Col. Lowdermiik, second vice president; Mr. Fassig, secretary-treasurer, and Messrs, Cutter and Darwin and Mi Kimball, members of the executive com- mittee. The association adjourned, to meet again on the third Wednesday in January. seat ca sceanasRe “Letting in the Jungle.” The conclusion of Rudyard Kipling’s story in next Saturday's Star, ee Indiana‘’s Congressmen.
