Wo are under continnod'obllgatlons to the publishers of the Nonpareil , Globe , Herald and Free Prosso of our own city , and to the BEE of Omaha and Council Bluffs for furnishing their papers to us gratuitously. The number of visitora to the library and reading room during the year was 26,667. The number of registered book takers Is 1,228 , an increase during the year of 22-1. The whole number of books taken from the library during the year was 19,847 , divided according to subject as follows : Theology 236 , philosophy 416 , natural science and art 845 , poetry and essays 3,331 , history and biography 3,328 , travels 1,123 , fiction 10,573. In view of the intense political excite ment which prevailed in the community during a largo part of the year we think the above results of the year's work both in the number of books read and vUitora to the library to bo a very favorable one. The whole number of purchased books registered during the year Is 504 , at an average cost of $1.26 per volume. The number of registered books donated was 108 , making the whole number added C72. In addition 59 volumes z > nd 12 pamphlets of United States documents were received ; also a number of volumes printed by the state. The official regis ter of the patent office is received regu larly , and kept on file for public inspec tion. No books have boon lost during the year. Sixty-two volume have boon . sent to the bindery , of which forty-eight , have been rebound. Forty volumes . have boon repaired in the library. The whole number of public documents in the library exceeds 2,000 , and nearly all are methodically arranged and easy oE reference. Donations have been made to the library during the year by Hon. W. H. M. Pusey , Hon. J. W. McDill Qoorgo Carson , Horace Evorell , Mrs. Sarah 0. Key , Rev. 0. Haralin , Mrs. W. H. Bradbury , Rev. P. B. MoMenomy Prof. J. J. Stattery , Thomai Bowman P. McPryor , and J. D. Edmundaon. In pucjhaslnj books an object has ota baeu simply to add to the aggregate num ber on our f.helves , which wo could eas ily have done at a greatly reduced cost but rather , after procuring the loading standard books , to aecuro the freshest productions of * ho best writers as theii works issue from the press. At the same time wo have aimed to exclude the morel iy sensational along with all those of doubt . ful moral tendency , so that no.boah it.ny be found upon our shelves which may not bo read with profit alike by the ayd the middle aged and the young. Eirly In the seasons the library was re moved Into moro spacious quarters 0at No. 14 Pearl street. This now room It CO feet long , 22 feet wide , with high lied ings and has been handsomely finished up and furnished. About one-third ol this ample npaco is devoted to' the read ing room and is well supplied with desks tables and' chairs and nicely lighted. Hero the magazines and newspapers we have mentioned above , together with any book that may bo called , may be read during the eoveu hours each after noon and evening while the library iem kept open , The remainder of the room is devoted to Horary purposes alone , and is well supplied with book cases and other conveniences for the arrangement and delivery of books. nty | ) ? l aoh reputable resident of the city abavo the ago of 12 years can obtain n book from the library and hold It for two weeks upon entering into on agreement with eatitfastory guarantee that it will bono properly returned. The system of con. tract and guarntco works wnll. No one complains of it as it can hardly preclude anyone from obtaining books and under its operation we lose no books. ; It is very dorirablu that the advantages and privileges which our library furnishes to the people of this city should bo made known as widely as possible. To that end wo invoke the assistance of the press of out * city. By frenuent mention it o m call attention to ( ho existence of the bnnnficiont institution in our city. We tliInk &i o that the moro than half him- died teachers in Council Bluffs should also direct the minds oi their pupils toward the library as a rich fountain of Intellectual culture and that they should nleo assist their numerous pupilfl by their advice and sug gestion in their reading. We have on our shelves n largo number of books fitted for the young , and wo are sure they would bo largely road by hundreds , who now remain away from the library , If their perusal were kindly and earn estly rocommoirded and the facility for procuring them properly pointed out. Wo earnestly call the attention , both of parents and teacher , to this important branch of our free system of popular education , to the end that the library may bo made a still moro Important auxllllary in the free development of knowledge In all Ha broad moaning and among all classes of the community. From the foregoing statement it will bo soon that the free public llbrory of Council Bluffs has been in successful operation during the year. Wo com mend it to the fostering care of the city council and the people of this city. Respectfully submitted , HORACE EVKKETT , President , D. 0. BLOOMER , Secretary. NOTE The terms of office of A. W. Stroat , W. R. Vaughan and Rov. P. B. McMonomy expire at the first mooting of the city council in 1885. GROSS7 CASE. Judge Loofbonrow Omles the Mo tion for a Coutinnaico. A OlmiiKO oiVcnuoXhon Tnlton. The case of Dr. Cross charged with the murder of Dr. McKuno came up again yesterday morning In the district court , The dcfonao doalrod a continuance. The claims sot up in support of this request wore numerous. Ono was the absence of John N. Baldwin , upon whom has fallen the burden of preparing the defense , Mr. Baldwin woo taken ill , while away at tending to a very important civil case , and Is now lying 111 at Richmond , Ky , Judge Hnbbard of Cedar Rapids , who i also engaged in the case was hero Friday , but returned to Cedar Raplaa , hlspartno being sick , and ho did not return ycstor torday morning , the reason for his nb sonco not being known. This throw the defense upon George F. Wright and Mr , Haldono , the partners of Mr. Baldwin , They claimed that knowing nothing o the defense , its preparation bolnf in other hands , It wan no justice to themselves or to the accused to bo forced Into trial. Another cause f oi a continuance was the Illness of Mrs Cross , the wife of the defendant. Sh was unable to attendai a witness am her testimony was very important. Mr , Wright , In an affidavit , stated some the facts that It was understood nh would testify to on the stand , but he condition was such that she could not in form counsel of nil that she know abou the case , and If the state admitted tha she would swear to the statement madi in the affidavit , yet this was not enough as she doubtless would , if able to apperfr. testify to other matters , not known , bn which might bo of equal Importance i thoao stated. It is claimed that Mn Cross is in such a nervous and feeble con dition that It would bo almost fatal to her to have Dr. Cross put on trial. She needed his dally attendance at her bed side , and the anxiety as well as the lack of hfs care would bo liable to cause her Illness to result fatally. With the feeling - ing that the physicians of the city were prejudiced very strongly again&t her husband , it was a great shosk In her low nervous condition to have any examination made by any of them , but she had submitted to examination by Dr. Lacy , and by Dr. Barstow , as well as by . an Omaha physician. Their certificates were presented , that of Dr. Barstow showing that she was too ill to permit of the abecnco of her husband , or the nervous strain of his being on trial. Tito prosecution claimed that the case had dragged along a year now. The In dictment was returned i josr ago last December , but it was thought there was not enough time left in that term to try It , and it wont over until last May's term. Then a continuance was granted on the motion of the defendant , who claimed that there wore some important depositions from the east which had not anived. It was thoroughly understood . that the caeo would surely bo tried at this term , and the agreement made that it should not bo called np until after the first of the year. That time having came , a special revise . for seventy-five jurymen had been in at , tendance since Friday last. A great ex . pense had been involved , and the attor . neys Instead of getting ready for trial had , boon spending their time preparing mo , tions to secure delays , and offering ilimsy excuses , The state had agreed to admit that if Mrs. Croaa was able to appear she would testify to such facts as were stated - In the affidavit of Mr. Wright , This did , away , therefore , with the necessity of continuance on her account. Judge Loofbourow In deciding the matter - tor reviewed the points at length. Ho thought the absence of Mr. Baldwin and Judge Hubbard was not a sufficient rea . son for continuance , aa the defendant's interests could bo well cared for and ably protected by remaining counsel. The , srato by admitting thut Mrs. Cross'would testify as claimed , did away with the no- - ceealty of her being present. As to her condition being such that she required her husband's prononco , ho said ho was not fully satisfied by the affidavits of the physicians , and that ho would not put much stress upon that unices a report to - that effect wes made by a commission of , physicians appointed by the court to ex : amine her. In view of all the facts the judge said the defendant must be put on trial , and over rated the motion for a continuance , The crowd in the court room at once broke out with a clapping of hands , showing that they ttvidtmtly had little sympathy with Dr. Crois. The judge told the sheriff that there must bo quieter or the court room must bo cleared. On the outburst of applauao Mr. Hal- dene arose and neid that , with such.an expression of feeling , it was evident what ought uow to bo done , and ho ( Hereford gave notice that a motion for a change of VPIIIID would bo filud and naked > for tirao topri'ptre tht same , The judge granted the time , adjourning - ing court until 1:30 : in the afternoon , thus affording an opportunity tj prepare tha motion. On the opening of court in the afternoon - noon a motion was filed for a change of vonno on the ground of the prejudice of the people hero against the accused. There WRB n little moro legal sparring , and then the judge let the whole matter go over until this mornlug to give an opportunity for the presentation of affi. davits and other showings to determine whether there was auoh a prejudice among the people as to warrant sending the case elsewhere.
