GOTHAM'S ' GREAT LIBRARY Monumental Structure to Honsa tlio Astor , Lennox and Tildon Collections , 450,000 BOOKSj 52,5:0,000 , , EU1D1NG Another flrnrrutin ( lift from < hr > l > tntp ti > Cornell Xcv apnpcr l"und for llimioit'ii Mlirar- Kdiioiitliiiuil No ten. Tbo consolidated ( niullc library ot tbo city of Now York , founded oti the Astor nnd Lennox libraries and the Tllden library tnml , will occupy the llryant IMrk slto , fortieth street and Fifth nvemie. HvlH reprcecnt , when completed , art outlay of $8,000,000 , and wilt open with 450,000 books , on Its sbchvs. Plans for the building Imvo been approved , > \nd the sum of $2,500,000 appropriated for Its ccustructlon and decoration. The Astor library was founded by the willet ot John Jacob Astor , who died In 1848 , leav ing $400,000 for that purpose , nnd by William D , Astor's BOH , John Jacob Astor , who de voted $550,000 to the Institution. Its ca x\cHy la 300,000 volumes. ' The Lenox library , at Seventieth street and Fifth avouuo , Is known principally to biblio philes and literary men , U was Incorporated lu 18TO , and built on ground donated by James Lenox , who also paid for Its custructlon , amounting to more than $1,000.000. Mr. Lonox then endowed the library with n fund of $250,000. It conlalos a number of rare literary productions , together with sonio flue paintings and statuary , aud the private li brary which belonged to the founder. Tbe Tllden fund of $2.000,000 Is Intact. The architecture of the accepted plans Is renaissance. Although It Is based upon clas sical principles It Is modern In feeling , the uurouso ot the architects being to express the spirit of our times by following and carrying out the historical continuity of style wltLout slavishly following any particular period , or without endeavoring to Invent a new style. The Ionic order In columns , or pilasters , la used In the main Fifth avenue olovatlon. The columns are to bo forty-sK feet In height , Including the cstablaturo. The main entrance of tl.rco , great arches , each thirty-five feet high and fifteen feet wide , with deep icccsses , like three great triumphal arches , form the main entrance to this great vestibule or hallway. The same arches , as shown In the facade , go around all four sides of the hallway. Oa tbo west side onlv are balconies from tlio second floor. Between the court yards and centering with the main axis of the great halluay Is tbo malnkexhlbltlon room , which Is to bo devoted to the exhibition of bookbinding and orna mental book covers of historical and artistic Interest. Immcdlnely upon entering the building there will bo a large monumental hallway , eighty feet long and forty foot wide , going through ! two stories. According to the plans thn ceilings nrj vaulted with stone. Stair cases at both ends , twelve feet wide , ascend ono night to the main hallway on the second floor , and ( from tliero crossing this hallway another Illght of stairs leads to the third floor , arriving directly at the entrance to the great reading rooms. On Forty-second street , ut the center of this facade , Is an other Important entrance to the building , which will bo only a few steps above the sidewalk at that point. This largo vestibule goes through the basement and first story. It makes a direct approach to the lending and delivery rooms , which will occupy one of two courts eighty-five feet square. This court will-bo covered with glass under the level of the sills ot the ilrst-story windows. There Is a third and less Important entrance on Fortieth street communicating dUectly with stalra tnd elevutore for the service ot the building. All of this portion cf the building will bo devoted to. the admla- Istratlonj of the library. It will contain , the offlco ot the buslncos superintendent , the receiving and checking rooms , the catalogue room , the accession rooms and the ordering , printlcg , and binding rooms. In 'the ' roar ot the ibulldlnc Is thn main stack room , which will contain seven tiers of stacks "with " the main reading rooms Im mediately over them , thus giving direct com munication between the stack's and the readIng - Ing rooms. The location of 'the ' main read ing rooms on the top floor Is a novel but satisfactory feature , as It Insuics perfect light , quiet and convenience for the occu- pauts. There will be about 140 feet of ground between the "west elevation of the building and the present park. This -will be treated In an architectural -way In keeping with itho character ot the building. In designing the library the endeavor has been to make the building very monumental In character , with clesslcalproportions , and very iblg and linpresalve In scale. U will be built either ot white marble or .Indiana limestone. GIFT TO CORNELL. The two sons of the late Henry W. Sage of Ithaca , N. Y. , have tendered to Cornell university the family homo for a hospital and a fund of $100.000 to endow It. The tender was made on December 1 and was accepted 'by ' the trustees of the university. Speaking of the gift President Schurman says : "Wo have long been In need ot a hospital for filck students , and efforts to secure ono have been made In the past , though unavail ing. At present our students go to the Ith aca hospital , which Is small and greatly over crowded by city patients. Hereafter the young meir and women attending Cornell university will have a hospital for their own exclusive use. owned and controlled by the university. The building has ono ot the best sites In the city , and whllo elevated above the city and surrounding otrcet. It Is yet easily accessible by the electric road and not distant from the main thoroughfares , The house Is of stone and la solidly built. It Is understood that , with the grounds , Mr. Sage's homo originally cost over $80,000 , nnd since his eons propose to make alterations and additions to It and furnish and equip It com pletely , It will , when turned over to the uni versity , no doubt represent a coat not far from $100,000 , which , with the endowment fund , makcn the total gift about $200,000. " In regard to the endowment of $100,000 for the maintenance of the Infirmary , PresMrnt Schurman pointed out that Mr. Sage's f s had adopted the practice Invariably followed by their father. When ho presented Sagp college to the university ho also handed over an endowment of $100,000 to take care ot It. And when at a cost of nearly $300,000 ho erected the library building , ho also gave an endowment fund of $300,000 for the purchase of books , just as ho also provided $270,000 for the maintenance of the Sago School of Phi losophy , MH.

"I have always noticed , " continued Mr. Todd , In speaking of his gift to the lUston library , "that It Is Impossible to find papers from different cities And towns , unices It bo n very few of great prominence , when out- sldo the territory In which 4hc-y circulate , and strangers are always anxious to gel hold of iiowa from homo. I used to go to New York nnd call nt fcho Cooper Institutes There Is < i newspaper room Ihere and I wanted to got a look at rupors from this way. 1 found a crowd was alunjs present , sometimes standing ttirco or tour deep , waiting to get a took at ono particular piper. U set me to thinking. In 1STO I started a reading room at Newburyport , with newspapers a prom inent fcaturo. It was a great success aud I arranged for lie continuance. "Then I thought of HoMon's nenJ ot some thing ot the kind In a newspaper way. llos- ton Is a big city. It has visitors from all over the world. The old public llbra'ry build ing had nn room for a department for news papers , but when tbo new building was opened thei'o ' was and I started In to give $2,000 a year to carry out my Idea. After four > cars' trial -It was found to acceptable that two wcoks ago I gave $50,000 to the city , with the provision tint Interest at 4 per cctit be guaranteed. I did not put It Into a bank , as banks may fall , but the City of Boston never will , and the $2,000 a year will bo continued safely after I am for gotten. "Tho amount -mentioned as available gives itho reading room SOO papers. They are there from every part , of the world. All the lead ing dallies ot this country , In every langauge , and ma-ny weeklies are kept on file , and the same applies 'to ' foreign publications , There Is many a good citizen In llostcn , who came from a far away place , who can go to the II- bmry nd see his homo paper when he would not otherwise. Not many men feel as though they could blford to itakc more than the local papers , but If they live In Ucston or visit there they can find almeat any ono they wish.

The Nebraska Dairymen's association meets In Dairy hall at the State university farm Wednesday./December 22. In the afternoon addresses will bo mnilo upon the results of the experimental work of the year at the university experimental station. The hall Is so arranged that stock can bo brought Into the room to "Illustrate" the addresses The history department ot the university has just published a new book , the Joint -work ot Prof. Howard Caldwell and Prof P. M. PI Ing. The title Is "Studies In Eu ropean and American ! History. " It Is a volume - umo of about 300 pages and Is of Interest to the general reader , 'though ' especially BO tor teachers , giving the methods and au thorities used In the Nebraska university history department. The third Important advance Is In the schools of agriculture nnd dairying. This Includes a largo brlck-vonesr addition to the dairy school building , making room for about double U" number of students , and also a lecture room , and laboratory for practical work. In this connection also the board re solved to test the soil culture system Intro duced by Mr. Campbell In this state the last two seasons by making a detail from the Agricultural college force to record ex periments on an experimental farm near Holdrego. Three new and Important plans In uni versity work were determined upon at the regents' meeting last week. The first Is the practical transformation of the summer school , which was originally started as a teachers' institute , for advanced teachers. Into a summer term of the university , with tpe- cial provision for tmlnlng In mechanic arts , horticulture and agriculture. The demand for teachers thoroughly trained In these detri ments Is constantly growing. Maay of these who would llko to talto special training art employed during the school year. They will now bo enabled to pursue a course at the university during the summer vacation. This action ot the university Is preliminary to tli < - Introduction of Industrial training Into the common schools ot Nebraska. The second Important step WEB the adoption ot a plan for thoroughly testing different means of pre vention for hog cholera at the experiment station. Dr. Diy and Dr. Peters were au thorized to buy 100 head ot swlno for experi mental purposes. Those will bo divided Into four equal lots. The first will bo given the serum treatment , the aooand tlie sterilized culture , the third the attenuated culture and the fourth will not bo Inoculated , After treatment the Inoculated animals will be sent Into Infected herds. Regent Marrlll and Chancellor MacLcan were cooolnted a com mittee to confer with the Nebraska Science Breeders' association In carrying out this program. \otrn. Cincinnati's High school has a cooking class for boys. President McKInley has accepted an Invi tation to 'bo ' the orator at the commencement exercises of Ohio Wcelcyan university next Juno. A 'resolution ' protesting against "tho habit of male teachers parting their Qialr In the middle" has been adopted by a teachers' Institute In West Virginia. The 'two ' Indian schools at Carlisle and Hampden have now a total of over SOO pupils , and those in charge of them feel encouraged at thu results of their work. Near Whltcohopol , in ono of the poorest and most squalid districts In London , Is the Hothschlld school , tbe largest In the world , educating 3,600 children , belonging mostly to the poorest foreign Jews , and having a staff of 100 teadiers. It was founded fifty-five years ago < by a Rothschild of that time , and has always been presided over by ono of the family , the present 'Duron ' Rothschild now performing that offlco. Free breakfasts are given each 'morning to all the children who wlah them , no questions liclng asked. The story of the Rlrl who expended $10 of her hard-earned money for a pluma wherewith - with to adorn a 25-cent hat U recalled by the bequest by a St. Louis man of $40,000 to Brown university , In Providence , R , I. , for the erection of a clone entrance to the college - lego campus. This St. Louis capitalist must have had the Idea that the ornamental was better than thn useful for an Institution of learning.
