Leavitt, of Leavitt, Neb., the Transmississippl Gult vas in _the city yesterday enroute to Kansas City and 8t Lolfs, where he goes to make arrangements for fecuring two of the\ best amateur golfes |in each of these clties to participate the big golf tourney at Chicago on October 17, belween the ten best eastern pl and an equal pumber from the Transm s- | sissippl Golf assoclation. Mr. Leavitt suid that in a contest with the crack plavers at Chicago and other points further east the transmississippl players were golng u. against u stiff proposition. but that: 1 would doubtless acquit themselves with credit J. R. Maxwell, of Keokuk ia., who wrested the transmississipp! champlopship from T. R.

Guinand of the Wive. land club of Des Mol will also become the tr lusissippl team Guinand is but 19 years of uge and is re. arded as a wonderful golfer. 1n the qua'i- Fing round of the transmississippi tou ney he made the Waveland course twic covering thirty-six holes. in 164 in the midst of & heavy rain. This equals bogey for the course, and under the most fa able conditions would be: regarded a wonderful exhibition of golf, "but durin the conditions under which he labored, in the tace of a heavy thunderstorm. 'the exhibition is regarded as a wonderful bit of goif. and is credited with having equaled par golf under favorable conditions Mr. Leavitt is optimistic in his view of western golf and sald that a number of first-class plavers were being developed. It was his opinion that when the players have been at the game a few years they will be able to take high rank with those in the east where the game is much older and where & much superior article of golt is_played The Omaha Golf and Country eclub s | newotiating with the Golf and Country club of St. Paul looking o a tourney fn (hat city between the two clubs.

JOINT MEETING WITH WOMEN'S CLUBS J. C. Dana, L Delivegs a brarian of Newark, nteresting Address What a Library Should Be. £ on FREMONT, Neb., Oct. 8.—(8pecial.)~The Nebraska Library assoclation met at the auditorfum In the Library building yester- | Aay afternoon. There was a good attend- | ance of librariana throughout the state and | many of the women attending the state | federation meeting were also present. Ross | L. Hammond welcomed the delegates to the | city, speaking briefly of the increase in the | number of public libraries in the state and the extension of thelr inflience, especially upon the coming generation. Miss Edith Tobit of the Omaha publie library responded to the address on behalf of the associa- tion. The next on the program was a discussion on “Belection of Children's Literature,” by Miss Palmer, librarian at Lincoln, and Miss | Templeton of the Omaha public library. Miss Joanna Hagey of Beatrice took up the subject of “Preservation of Books, Binding and Mending.” The proper method | of opening and holding a book were con- sidered and the various kinds and methods of binding with reference to both wear and appearance were considered at some length. David Cardwell, foreman of the Tribune bindery, also spoke of the practical work | of bindirg and of the late improvements in that line. Both lamented the fact that} 80 many new books of the day, especia flction, were bound In such a way that the | covers, soon became loose and soon re- | quired new binding in which stfength rather than a fine appearance was most de- sired. No session was held in the evening, the delegates attending the reception ten- dered the State Federation of Women's | clubs at the Congregational church. Ofcers Elected. At the session this morning the commit- tee appointed to nominate the officers com- posing the executive board of the assocla- tion submitted the following report: Presi- dent, Miss Rachel Berry, McCook; first vice president, Miss Edna Bullock, Lin- coln; second vice president, Miss Fanny Geer, Columbus; secretary, Miss Ruth Mil- Uken, Lincoln; treasurer, Miss M. A. O'Brien, Omaha. The report of the com- mittee was approved and the above officers elected. Miss Geer of Columbus spoke on “Li- brary Organization,” which was followed by a general discussion. ‘A paper on “Prace tical Methods In a Small Library, read by Miss Belle Earl of Harve: Mary Urobol, librarian of Bellevue col- lege, traced the history and development of college libraries in Nebraska from their beginning down to the present time. This afternoon Miss Alice Tyler of Des Moines spoke on the subject “Do We Want | a Public Library? Yes.” The value of the | pubta library, its importance in the cult- | ure and education of the masses of people | were discussed and the growth of tho li- | braries throughout the country together | with the awakened Interest in good reading | caused by the benefaction of Andrew Car- negle and others. The paper was of deep interest to ‘all those Interested in books. Joint Meeting with Federation. The joint meeting of the Btate Federa- tion and the Library association at the Con- gregational church this evening was very largély attended. Mrs. Stoutenorough made a short report of the library work which had been accomplished by the women dur- ing the past year in establishing new li- braries and strengthening older ones. The general work and scope of the Ne- braska Public library \commission was then briefiy reviewed by F. F. Weyer. Its relation to the public school gave ft an opportunity to do needed work. Much money spent in school district libraries was wasted through an improper sel \m- of books and inability to use them propérly. The secretary of the commission had vis- ited the normal schools and many teachers’ institutes, explaining the workings of the libraries and much improvement could be expected. Traveling Ilfbraries numbering from forty to sixty books each were now in seventy-elght towns and fifty counties in the state, largely in the western part. The aim of the commission was to cause more good books to be read In Nebraska than in any other state In the unfon In proportlon to its population. The principe] speaker of the evening was J. C. Dana, Wbrarlan of the Newark (N. J) publie lMbrary. A lbrary bullding, he sald, should be simple, dignified and on fine lines, both internally and externally. Elaborateness and a tendency to ornament ation were out of place in a Ybrary, Classi- fications and arrangements were ¢nstantly | changing and improving. The problem of a library that wiil be of benefit to the people of a city was a different one in the west than In the east. The western city was complete and Independent within itself, not looking up to or dependent upon some other as is true in many parts of the east. A, leading province of the library, was its use in connection with school work and Interesting children in good books. Téachers should be invited, not urged, to take books to the school rdom, use them in their work and to place the right books in the hinds of the childgh at thie right times The speakfr pluced little value on the influence on the child of having the Amer- fean flag wave over every achool bullding.
