More Sales Here Last Week, But Loans Were Less. Last week Norwich had six sales of real estate, to four a year ago, while the mortgage loans show the marked difference of 35,700 and $26,040 for the respective weeks. The number of real estate transac- tions in the state towns reported in the Commercial Record for the current week is somewhat less than for the same week of the previous year, the 307 sales for the week comparing with 325 a year ago, while the amount of the mortgage loans, $753,997, is about $35,- 000 greater than last y But one petition in bankruptey is reported for the week in this state, withliabilities several times the amount of assets. The record is not as good as previous years, the last week in September as a rule making a very favorable sowing In years past. The six new incorporations in the state for the week have average cap- italization of about $40,000, which com- pares very favorably with previous records.

Books, a Total of 108,042—Daily Av- erage 354 Volumes—Helpful Co-op- eration with Schools, Literary and Debating Clubs. That the Otis library is really the people's library is evidenced by the report for the year ending August 81, 1912, now ready for distribution. In his brief but forceful foreword to the citizens of Norwich, President Willlam A. Aiken directs attention to the fact that the circulation of books in Nor- wich homes during the year was 108,- 042 volumes, an average of 354 vol- umes per day. This, as President Alk- en makes the comment, though not the largest year as to circulation, is very large In proportion to the population, to the size of the library and to the average circulation of other free li- braries. The quality of the beoks circulated, it is belleved, hears fayorable compar- ison with that of free libraries in gen- eral, he declales. Cm1espondence with other libraries ind!cates the universal fact of the large preponderance of fiction, in spite of the unremitting efforts of librarians and trustees to extend the ecirculation of more serious reading. ° One of the prime efforts. of our val- ued librarian, President Alken adds, |dis has ever been fr this direction, not- withstanding the special care always exercised by Mm in the selection of works of fiction, bothi for adult and Juvenile reading.

Chicago, Oct. 4—The crusade against vice conducted by State's Attorney | John E. W. Wayman, late today took ja startling turn when, at the request |of “the state's attorney, Judge Henry C. Moran of the municipal court issued subpoenas duces tecum for the pro- duction of the key to the report of the vice commission, which was made pub- lic about two years ago. The key has since remuined in the archives of the commission. When the report was published it contained much Information of a start- ling nature regarding vice conditions. Many inmates and resort keepers fur- nished most of this information, their identities being concealed through the medium of numerals in place of names. In order to have the benefit of this information, the subpoenas were ls- sued agalnst Dean Walter T. Sumner of St. Peter and St. Paul cathedral, and Ward S, Sims, former United States attorney here, Mr. Sims was the sécrotary of the commission.

He continues: During the last two months of our flscal year—July and August—our purchases of books have been very small, owing to the enforced absence of the librarian on account of iliness. His presence has been greatly missed, and the value of his services has been the better appreciated by the trustees, because of their temporary loss. While ardently hoping for his speedy restoration to health and duty, the trustees will not lose sight of thé public interest in the present opera- tion of the library and of its on progress in the future.
