A Tribune man consulted tho rccotds nt tho llbtary yesteiday and learned thcteftoni that the average dull) num ber of books taken out dining the month of July was 3S7 only, as com pared with 4St for Mutch, the latter being the highest tccoided tinting the j ear. The total number of books taken out dining July was !',!! t, of which 0,107 were fiction and l,fl7S young peo ple's woiks. The othet books taken out vvete classified as follows: Phllo soph), 63; theoloRy. fi.'j sociology, !I7: phllolog), :i: natutal science, 117, useful mts, isr; line arts, 125; llteta turc, '.'51; poetry and diama, I'll, travel, 02; blogtaphy, 17J; hlstoiy, 151; polypraphy, 34J. The total number of woiks of fic tion taken out In a "big" month like Mm ch Is SJTi, and the total number of books 12,230, the number of the more set Ions ilnss of works being nbout double the number taken out tn July. "What ate the works of llctlon for which theie Is the gieatest demand?' asked the Tilbunc man. HOOKS IN DHMAND. "Well, without looking up our lecotds, I might say In a Rcneinl suit of a way that there Is, 11 demand for evety new nnd popular or extensively ndvettlspd book," teplled the assist ant llbiatian. "It doesn't matter much whether ,1 book has much met it as long as It's new and talked about, especially ns long as it's now, theie will be a demand for It." The assistant llbratlan found, after consulting the list ot books for which cuds have been left, that Just now the greatest demand Is for Winston Churchill's "The CrMs.' This novel bus only been publshcd nbout two mouths, but theie ate no less than seventeen cauls on tile in the llbtary calling tor it. Theie ate but three copies of the woik nnd many of these seventeen pet sons who have sacil liced their ends will piobably have to wait lor two months betom they can get one of the copies. It isn't, as a tule, such a tenlble sactillce, however, for those bouowets who leave cuds. In the majority of instances where It is done, theie ate four or live catds in the family, with the set v ant gill's on the side. Chuichlll's "Hlchaid C.itvel," which Hist won him fame and which was published two jeais ago, is cowdlng Ills other book, "The Ctisls," for Hist place, as Im as locul populatlty goes. Theie Is a steady demand for it and theie aie now neat I) a dozen cauls waiting for It. Booth Tatklngton's "(ientleman fiom Indiana," which tan setially In Mi CI 11 re's Magazine, Mai Ion Onvv fold's Spanish lomance, "In the Palate of the King," und Hanlo's delightful "Tony and tirlyel," aie neck and neck for thltd place. TO HAVH AND TO HOLD. The populatlty of Miss Maty John son's "To Have anil to Hold" and "Pilsonets of Hope," those two stil ling tales of dating deeds done In the eatly Colonial days of Vitginla, still let.iln their popularity, as does Mau tlce Thompson's "Alice of Old Vin cennes," a book made doubly popular by its gifted author's death. Other books for which sevetal cards aie waiting 1110 Hei tint, Hunkle's "The Helmet of Nav.iue. ' Mis. Humphrey Wauls "Hleanot" and Davis' "Friend of Caesai." The assistant lllnailan said that theie Is .1 continual demand for Hope's "Zend.i" stotles, but said that tho de mand for Hud) aid Kipling's books had fallen off vv ondei fully. "We used to have cuds waiting foi Kipling's books, but they aie now taken out xety iiiegitlail), ' said she. This is in line with the statement leeentl) made in a llteiaty peilodl cal to the effect that the sale of Kip ling's woiks has fallen off hugely in the last eui, and that the Hngllsh nuthoi was losing his vogue. "Neatlj all the books foi which catds nte left are new," said the as sislnnt llbiatian," but thete Is one 1 enidi liable exception. This Is Paul Leicester Ford's "Hon, Peter Stilling" I've about iiiado up nt) mind that evetybody In tho city has lead that book. It was published oomii c.us ago and we've had It heie ever since, but people find It so haul to get that thete's neatly alwa)s sevcial catds left lor It.
