THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

Additions ,
The pnlllc library of Omaha Is an in-
sliltiUoa of incalculable benefit to the
canto o ( locil education. It Is largely
patronised , and txerclioi an Itllucnco for
; oed which cm only bo appreciated by
those Intitnataly acquainted with Its in-
aldo wet kings.
At present It has from 12,030 ta 15,000 ,
volntnoi. Tha circulation for January
1835 was G20G , as against C-143 for Jauu-
1831. The nvorngo ihlly circnlilha it
about 20 ! > . Miss Mary P. Allan la head
librarian , and la assisted by Miaa
McBrlde , In the ubsunco of Misj Jessie
Allan , now In Washington. The work is
jocGinloc BO onerous that it is proposed
very shortly to appoint a second assist
ant to help In giving out books and
cooping track of the routine details of
ha ay atom.
Now bcr ks arc constantly being added
: o the library by purchase or contribu
tor It ii foand that the i\c3ipts in the
way of Ones imposed , for transgressions
of rules , npon patrons of the library , are
about sulliclent to pay the costi ot rebinding -
binding and repairing old and wornout
books. The number of books rebound
in a year la very U'go and neatly all the
time there are abouc two hundred vol
umes la the hand ) of the binder. By
the almost pjrfoct system now in vogao ,
but vary few booko are over lost through
Failure of a dhhoaoat patron to rotura
the volume chirgod against him The
' 1 oiii or guarantee card" is the in tin
foaturjof the system. Kajh new appli
cant for library privileges is required to
present a bonl signed by some roaponsl
bio friend , who guarantees the library
against any loss through neglect or dis
honesty on the p rt tf the poraon pro-
touting the card. In case a book is not
returned , the lots ia made good by the
guarantor ; and in event of his refutal to
replace the work , the bond la placed in
the lands of the city attorney for col
lection by law. The latter step is raraly
or never necessitated.
"As for the classes of pcopln who
pntronizo the library , " eild Mi.si Allan ,
In response to the query of a BIE : re-
> ortor , "there is no limit. It seems as
hough all kinds of people como to in.
You can BOO that the room Is nearly al
ways full of persons who luvo come hero
either to look over the periodicals or * o
draw ont bok ) . At present wo are
crowded , but March I find without ex
ception , is the busiest month of the
"
year
"How do Jyou find the demand for
heavy literature ? " "
' 'It ia incraaaicg all the time , especiilly
among tli9 working men employes of
, ho ( hops whoaieUklng vary lirgoiy tj
rending norks oa sodaKtm and political
cience. The demand for lisht ; literature
uid fiction ? It , tco , h increaiing. The
ys , of courao , take very naturally ti
iich works aa thoio of 'Oliver Optic , "
frowbrldge , Eggleston nnd that claia of
iteraturc , as well as to the Jaloi Yorno
and. This CIKS of liUrituro wo keep ,
Because it ia interesting and gonetn'ly ' of
i moral and instruc ivo tone. The very
ijht and trathy ahaiea nf fiction are of
coune , rigidly excluded. "
"Du you have much demand for at ami-
ird English fiction the worlcs of George
illiot , Uickono , Thackeray among thoje
calling for books ? "
"Oh , yes , a very largo demand. Q {
Dickons' works , for instance , wo hava to
coap duplicate sots , and they are out all
ha timo. Do the girls take much to Io-
iltimato fiction ? Yes , many of thorn.
Dickens , for example , la devoured by
many girls not yet out of their teens , not
so much , I suppose , for the boauly of his
diction cr thought as for the general voln
) f the atory. I find , though , that
the young ladloa arc more
oatily suited thowithllghtergrado of novel
itoratura ; James' , and IIowell' # , too , are
jccomlng voiy popular. Such works aa
hose of Fleming , Soathworth , and that
pjclea of light and scinationnl novel
vrltera are rightly excluded. No , I am
orry to nay wo have very little call from
young ladles for solid Juoratuio , except ,
loihipa , for works cf history in counoc-
iou with their high school studio * . Most
if them prefer to devote themselves to
ight novel reading. "
'Do many of tli9 wealthy class people
plo who ought to own a well stocked libra-
y patronize the library extensively ? ' '
"Well , yes. I jam continually Burpriijd to
co people coming In whom 1 know to be
Mo to own a well xtocked ( election of
joakp , nnd ask for books of the ( standard
cinil , fiotioi or hlatory , which you would
think they aurely ought to have In their
own hoasos , for ovuivdiy reference. "
"Tholibrjry Ispattieularly well stocked
with cncvclopsd in , and wo find the
greatest demand for them ; so much
so in fact that Ihty are n nso all the time.
Wo also are making eapccial effort to
complete our files ot a andurd period
icals , anoli as the Scientific American ,
Qarpor'e , Tlin Century , Atlantic , Popu -
Ur Science Monthly , North Amuruuu
llavlew , Edinburgh Review , mi thu
clias of monthly magazines. Wo oxtjest
to BCOII have complete files , wire1) , with
a full index to til art.'is'oi ' of intgiziue
literature published , now in the horary ,
will greatly enhance the value of the ao-

ho is invested with his father's

is selected. Iho chief tancy , while
itis gem rjlly retained In a family , Is by
no means hereditary and the chcia Is
