At present elTorts are being made to complete the set of American StUc Papers, especially those dealing with Indian afTnirs. as there is at present, no c implete ma terial on these subjects in tne city, tho Historical Society holding a large share. The objpc.t is to increase as much as possible the amount of ma terial for extensive historical studies Tor the uso ol students who wish to take advantage of it. In this regard it might be men tioned that a new ruling has been made prohibiting atmtying in the historical library alcoves exceut by those students who are engaged In the uso of historical books on special wrk. A vcr interesting and valuable collection of Indian relics and hints has been recently ieceived from Mr. Hopkins ol Oakr.ale, and they are now being unpacked and placed in position as rapidly as possible, caus ing the library to be generally torn up and disordered. The collection comprises about 1,000 arrow bends linely mounted, Indian corn grinders and other Implements ot Indian life. Special oak oases aro now being built for thorn and will be put In tho museum section. Owing to those and ' otlior continual additions the whole lloor space has been used up ai,d shelves are being built from the ceil ing down to allord additional loom. At present tho working force of the Society, besides their regular work, aro engagea in tho class! licatlon or trie books and pamphlets which have been gathering for some time, and also the gathering together and pre servatlon ol" county records aim clip pings. Proof is now being read for two now publications ol the society; Tip ton's "Forty Years ol' Nebraska in Congress and at Home" and the His torical Society reports. The former I is written by "Mr. Tipton who was one of Neuraska's first senators and is a resume ol the state from its in fancy, from 18f)i to 18JH Including conditions at various times', bio graphies of prominent men ol the state, public events and oxceliont half tones of popular men.
