The Opening Kxerclses The western half of the building was filled when promptly at noon, Mr. Dull called the meeting to order and introduced Benjamin M. Mead the first speaktsr. Mr. Mead, a former trustee told how the library building was made possible by the bequest in the will of Airs. Haly, and briefly gave a few facts concerning hor life. The new build ing. he said will be a "beacon light for the instruction and enlightenment of this and future generations in Har risburg. In closeing he expressed tno gratitude of the people of the city for the generosity of the donor. Governor John K. Tener, the next speaker, represented the State. He called attention to the good such an Institution does in a community and the fact that Pennsylvania is unusually happy In the number of Its libraries. He said Harrisburg Is fortunate In hav ing such an institution in such a building, "but it Is not the strength of the beauty of the building," he said, "that counts so much as the way in which It is used. It is a building that should be treasured by this city and this State." The "People's University" Thomas Lynch Montgomery, the State Librarian, pointed out the in creased value of public libraries in the present day of "social, mental and in tellectual unrest." Such institutions as this are needed to help the youth who starts out for himself at four teen, the present average age of leav in school. This is in truth the 'People's University' and the ideal of those who conduct such an institution must not be too high if the work of the library is to be well done. The likes and dislikes of the average person must be appreciated and sympathized with or the library will not be used by those to whom It means most. Mayor John K. Royal officially' re corded the appreciation of the city of Harrisburg for the bequest that "has filled a long-felt. want. He said the people of the city will use the new library and it will remain through the ages as a testimonial to the one .whose generosity has made it possible. Casper Dull, in Introducing Harry A. Boyer, president of the School Board, expressed the appreciation of the board of trustees of the library for the help given by the school dis trict in the maintenance of the in stitution. Boyer Points Out Its Value Mr. Boyer explained as the reason for the board giving this support the realization of the great value such a library would be to the teachers and pupils of the public schools. "The amount of use to which this institution will be put will, of course, depend altogether on the desire of the people for self-improvement. A task for us is to instill In the people of the city a desire for this self-improvement. We shall co-operate with the association in bringing about the greatest pos sible good from the use of this insti tution." Miss Alice R. Eaton, the librarian, who has spent the past six months in preparing the new library for the opening day. read an enlightening pa per on the history of libraries in this city since the first one was started by a group of men in 1790. She told of the lapse of Interest In public libraries in the middle of the last century and the growth of private circulating libraries; the beginnings of the State Library, which for years after its founding was used only by State offi cials, and the organization of the pres ent association. At 12.40 o'clock President Dull for mally declared the library open to fhc public. How Library Was Given to the People Harrisburg's new Public Library, which stands at Front and Walnut streets, one of the conspicuous cor ners of the miles of parked river front, was made possible by the benefactions of Mrs. SaraJ. Haldeman-Haly, widow of William Haly, a noted attorney, and a member of the Haldeman fam ily which has been so prominent In affairs of Harrlsburg and vicinity for over ISO years. Mrs. Italy died in 1896 and bequeathed $50,000 to es tablish a fund from whose revenue should be purchased books, periodicals and other articles necessary for the conduct of a library and SIO,OOO toward erection of a new -library building;. The executors were vested with certain powers and, knowing Mrs. Ifaly's great interest in securing a proper library for the city, added, on December 27, 1 897, the sum of SIO,OOO in addition to what was con veyed by the will of June 11, 1896. On May 14, 1900, the executors for mally turned over to the trustees of the library the lot at Front and Wal nut streets, which was the garden of the home of Mrs. Haly, for a librarv bulldlpg, which should be a memorial to her. On January 31, 1902, the ex ecutors donated SIO,OOO additional for the erection of the building on con dition that they approve the plans and that the memorial idea be carried out. This sum of SBO,OOO was invested in mortgages and about $4 5,000 was earned, so that when the building's construction was begun there was available about $125,000. Of this amount $40,000 was to be used for for building, SIO,OOO for furnishing, which was required to be of the best and most permanent character, the in come on $50,000 for books, etc., and the income on $2 5,000 for general ex penses. How well the i lea of a memorial building that at the same time will furnish the people of Harrisburg with a splendid free library has been car ried out Is apparent. The plans for the new building were drawn by E. S. Child, 29 Broadway. New York, and the contract awarded to J. A. McKelvy on May 22. 1912, by the building committee, Messrs. D. Bailey Brandt, HaldcnianO'Oonnor and James McCor mlck. Jr. On May 27 the removal of old buildings and the garden walls began and on May 29 tho building permit was issued by the city. The cornerstone was laid on July 17, 1912 with simple ceremonies. On April l! 1913, the building committee accepted the building and the trustees inspected it In the evening of that day. The first meeting of the trustees was held in the hew building on April 15. Since that time the Installation of the fur niture and books has gone on, the last permanent fixture, the marble clock, being added yesterday. Splendid Building of Colonial Design The library stands on a lot about 52 feet i nFront street by 210 feet, the buldllng being 40 by 170 feet. The architecture is from the Colonial pe riod, of the blue limestone so typical of building: in this part of Pennsylva nia. The beautiful main entrance is taken from the Colonial house at Homewood, near Baltimore, and the entrance to the basement, in accord ance with Colonial custom, Is under the front piazza. The main cornice of tho building was taken by Mr. Child from a design by James Gibb, the architect of famous St. Michael's Church lu Charleston, S. C„ while SHAMROCK COMPANY DEDICATES SEW CHEMICAL WAGON W Jrjr **4 f! •=• '>s ?* *fyT v<r " Another new piece of fire appara tus, the Shamrock ho3e and chemical wagon will be dodicated to-night with a reception and banquet to start at 8 o'clock. Owen M. Copclin, City Treasurer, the ornamental windows are adapted from Colonial structures. The wrought iron railing, the lampposts and swing ing lamps are all Colonial. The main floor of the building is lireproofed and the building Itself is stone and tile. In the basement are the assembly room, the trustees' room and the book stack room. The main library is on the second or main lloor and Is a splendid room with ceiling carried up through ,to the roof, fin ished In white and with mahogany furniturp. It is one of the most beautiful llbra,ry rooms In this part of the country. History of the Public Library in Harrisburg The Harrisburg Public Library As sociation succeeded library organ izations dating back in the early days of Harrisburg and revived about the middle of the last century. The present association was incor porated November 29, 1889, the char ter trustees being Charles L. Bailey, William K. Alricks, Maurice C. Eby, William H. Engle, L. O. Foose, John W. Simonton, A. Boyd Hamilton, Oscar S. Houtz, M. W. McAlarney, James McCormick and Ehrman B. Mitchell. Mr. Bailey was the first president; Mr. McCormick, vice-presi dent; Mr. Foose, secretary, and Mr. Alrlchs treasurer. The first library committee was composed of Con gressman M. 13. Olmsted, Judge Si monton, Dr. Egle, B. F. Meyers and Mr. McAlarney. On April 12, 1890, the Library was opened on the second floor of the Kelker building on Mar ket Square, the site now occupied by the Johnson building, where it re mained until it removed to the Locust street building in 1895. The presidents of the Library Asso ciation have been Mr. Bailey, Judge Simonton, Mr. Meyers, Mr. Eby and Mr. Dull. The late Ehrman B. Mitchell, who was a trustee from the beginning of the association, was very active In Its beha.l f. The present trustees are Casper Dull, president; D. Bailey Brandt, secretary: James McCormick, Jr.. treasurer; Hakleman O'Connor. W. S. Steele, George A. Gorgas. Judge George. Kunkel, William A. 8011, Arthur D. Bacon. William M. Donaldson nnd A. Boyd Hamilton. Miss Alice R. Eaton is the librarian. She was formerly connected with the State Library anil the library of Utica, N. Y. US BEGIN THEIR OTTICKIFEUS [Continued From Page 11 been killed and the wounded will' be far In excess of that number. Horrify ing sights were witnessed on the Amer ican side before daylight. The wound ed soldiers with shattered arms, legs shot off and injuries that later proved fatal, struggled through the river and pleaded to the American soldiers for help. All the physicians and medical supplies available here were placed at the service of the disabled federals. Before daylight more than 200 wound ed had sought relief on this side. Some of these were so badly injured that they begged the American soldiers to kill them. From the war-scarred little village of Ojinaga, back a mile from the river, there came what appeared to be an endless tide of wounded. The fight on the border here had the appear ance of being the most sanguinary con flict of the present revolution. Federal deserters also came to the river in great numbers, indicating that the bulk of Huerta's army was dis posed to give up. All the deserters who were not wounded, however, were disarmed on this side and sent back by Major McNamee, commanding the United States border patrol. Major McNamee has more than 300 guns which he took from deserters. During the night the groaning of the wounded | on the battlefield on the opposite side of the river could be heard by tho American cavalrymen. The firing In the darkness seemed to be heavier than It bad yet been. All women, children and noncombatants of Ojina ga came to the river and were taken to the American side. The little Bed Cross headquarters on this side where the federal wounded are being cared for now is as active as a Held hospital on a battlefield. nKTIUKS AFTER I.ONli SERVICE Chicago, 111., Jan. 1.

He said he would | devote his time largely to writing for "the cause." has been selected to be the toastmas -1 ter. Speeches will be made by Mayor Royal and the city commissioners, and George Tourney, a former Seventh , ward common councilman. The ar- HEALTH BOARD WILL IID COMMISSIONERS [Continued From l'nge 1] announced his intention of asking the commission to continue in office if the members would agree, and at the meeting last night the board consent ed to serve. Admirable Service "The Health Board kindly agreed to serve," said Mr. Bowman in speak ing of the matter this oiarning, "and I appreciate this very much. The men have served admirably prior to the changing of the syste mof government, returned splendid service to the City and guarded its interests well. So, naturally, I wished to retain them pro vided they would serve." Mayor Royal, it is understood, had hoped for the retention' of the board and the action of Mr. Bowman in ask ing that it be retained was pleasing to him. Commissioner of Streets and Public Improvements W. H. Lynch to-day discussed very briefly the reported ac tion of Mayor Royal as to possible mandamus proceedings to prevent the dropping of policemen. "As for the mandamus end of the matter, that X know nothing of," said he. "Anyway I would prefer to leave such a matter for Mr. Seitz, the City Solicitor, lie is the legal advisor for the city.
