HOW MUCH IT WILL COST.
The Public Library and Municipal
Expenditures.
Mr. Andrew Cannula has olfcicd u
public library to Caibotidale, iirovldcd
it will take care of it. This care will
be $2,500 yearly. Wo now pay SsOO
yearly for our library; MuO dlu-ct, $109
in pilntlng (binding) and the use of a
300 a, year loom. The added eNpcnso
will only be Jl.Tut) a jfitir, or about
one-half a mill on tin- ns&essed valui
Hon. What will It cost you"' If you
liuvc an occupation tax of 5K0, it will
i o.st about 6cvcti cc nts ti yeai. If j our
property Is assessed at .$M0 It will cost
:oti twenty-live cento, if u thousand,
then llfty cents, uud on only those few
whoso property is asso-sed at $2,000
will the tax bo one dollar a year or
tun tent. per week. One public-spirited
citizen, who has assessed to hint
some SO.OOO, will pay $2" yeaily, utid
jet he &ays have the llbraiy, anil ho
otters a fico slto for It. Und bless
Mm!
Now a littlo about tho city's expendi
tures. Last year there, was appro
piiated $3,n6j; this year the cominlt
tie have loconimeiiilcd nn oidliiancc
that cuts these uppioprlutlons to $41.
t'f'0. This cut Is made by tho reduc
tion ot $2,000 In lntei est and bonds to
ilet mod and $t!U0 in itBsesior's expenses.
This appioprlatlon covets all needful
eMuiibed nd the constltuanls of each
councilman ought to in bo that It bo
paused in Its piesent economical shape,
mid not loaded down with cxtiava
gant, unnecessary things.
Another year, by leason nf fewer
damage Mills, less Intvrobt and by tho
completion of fioino permanent woik,
it will be possible to lower this by
J3.000 or $1,000. This will make it
possible to use $2,000 or $3,000 In per
manent Impiovcments and still keep
our budget down to $10,000 a limit
that should not be exceeded until we
become a larger city. $10,000 equals
just about $:J for each Inhabitant. Tho
above figures keep in mind tho llbraiy
and all really useful expeiidltuies.
GILDY AT LIBERTY.
Released from the Hospital Yester
day Morning.
Constable Stephen A. Oilby, who
gave cveiy one mound the city build
ing such a scare on Monday night by
attempting biilclde by hanging, and
who nearly succeeded at bis tlllid at
tempt, was dlschuiged from the hos
pltal ycstenlay morning at 11.30 o'clock
and advised to go to his home, lie
piobably look the ailvke, for nothing
was seen of lihn mound town yestei
ilnv. The fall which Oilby got when ho
was cut down by City Tieasuicr Con
nor probably saved his life. In his
tumble ho struck tho back of his head
on a projt etlon, and the concussion
made a cut at the bails of bis head
lully two inches in length. This stint d
the blood to Mowing In his limp body
and, no doubt, hastened consciousness.
At the Iiosjiltal the matron took three
stitches In the wound. Whin he loft
the hospital jeslciday moiulug, the
attendants asked him how ho fill, and
ho said that lie was all light and felt
like himself, but be would like to know
who was mean enough to hit him in
tho back of the hind like that.
BEFORE THE MAYOR.
Two Cases of Helpless Di units Dis
posed of by His Honor.
Mayor Kllpatrlek had two cases be
fore his court jestetdny mosiilng. L'ach
of the hapless Indhidu-ils who raced

maritans in biass buttons and blue
clothes to prevent their coming to
barm, for wither of the twain was
cupublo ot taking care ot their in
terests. The flrat to answer the cnteihlsm
.was RIchdid J. Muiphy, who allege I
that he balled riom Seranton. Ho had
bcin arrcstid mound midnight on
Main stieet so drunk that he could

TALKING LIBRARY.
Tho Action of tho Councils Monday
Evening ITnlvcrsxilly Commended.
As lepoited In The Tribune jestpribiy
morning, the select and common ioiin
clls of tin- city of Cnibondulr, without
ii dissenting voice or vote, uiecptcd tho
gift fiom Andicw Carnegie of a library
building for this city. It was one of
the last acts of the present body and
one of the most Important measures It
1ms pasbed upon.
Major Kllpatilck Is much inleicwted
in this project and will approic of tho
resolution. There ato many details to
be auanged, but It Is certain that tho
new llbraiy gift will form an lmpoit-
nt tontine In the coining seinl-cen-Icnnlul
iclebratlon.
All over the city jestciday were
heard pialses of the rapidity and cllicl
cney with which the councils had done
their pait of this public hem diction.
Tho talk now shifts fiuin "Will tlu-v
accept It?" to "Wheie will it be
located?"
The Hon. V.. V.. Hi'iuliick, e-ma.or
of the city, when inuilcud by a in
poller, said: "I will gle si slip lor tho
building. I will donate a considerable
plot to tho city for tho put pose at nny
point along thu Spiing stieet fiont id"
my propci ly. CoiiirIIs may pet Imps
think this slto to be too much in the
residential poitlon, but it is the most
accessible X ian command, and 1 will
give It tieely to hae such n lino In
stitution located In this citv."
Spilng stieet Is a little up on tho hill,
but is within live minutes wall: nf the
crntliil purtlon of the cltj, and Mr.
llcndilik's offer Is one that should ro-
n'lve thoughtful i onslderatlon.
Tho majority of thu.-e who hivo been
interelewed seem to fnor the site
wheie tho old aimoiy is located, and
it Is said that piessurc will bo In might
to bear on the Pclawme and Hudson
company to bo as libeial as Ml. Heli
ihlek has been.
AN EXCITING TIME.
