One of the finest library buildings possessed by any educational insti tution has lately been completed on the csimpus of the Harvard Umver ; sity. It has been erected at a cost of ! approximately $2,000,000 as a mem '. orial to Harry Elkins Widener, of the class of '85, who lost his life in the Titnntie tragedy. It is intended to be i used not only by undergraduates ' and research students of the institu tion, but as a place of special study for the students at large.

At the present time the building holds some 700,240 volumes and about 423,000 pamphlets, while with a number of special collections also included, the number exceeds 1,800,000 titles. Ex.

In order to escape the liability for $1,000 fine under the federal statute forbidding favoritism to passengers, the Pennsylvania Railroad has brought suit in the Orange, N. J., district court to recover 34 cents from Jules Jacobs, of 20 Wallace street, Newark. On a trip from Philadelphia to Wil mington six months ago Jacobs ten dered a ticket, the time limit on which had expired. The conductor accepted it under protest, with passenger's business card. Reference to the legal department of the road brought an opinion that the ticket had only a re Late value of 33 cents. As the Philadelphia-Wilmington fare is 67 cents, suit for the remaining 34 cents was ordered. The legal department took six weeks to gather evidence. Jacobs has hired a Newark lawyer to look after his interests. New York World. Shade Selling Chean. j We are overlooked with lamp ; .shades worth in 30c to $2 W, now ;;i selling for ir,o.

Mrs. I'.owuer was too astonished to say more, hlie had een times when Mr. liowser wanted to take her head off for far less, and yet he was as good as pie over this. Mr. Howser may boast that he Is a chef of the ilrst water, Dut It is only a boast. lie Is not eveu a seventh class cook wlieu it conies down to brass tacks. Without coat or vest and In his old slippers, he moused around the kit' lien until he found some cold potatoes and a dozen eggs In a box. Then he built a fire and started in on the coffee first. No matter how much water he used to half a cupful of the ground coffee nor bow lung be boiled It. he was satisfied with It, The frying pan was made red hot, a chunk of bacon put In to furnish the grease, and while three eggs were burning to cinders he sliced In four or Ave pota toes, und his morning banquet was ready, lie was devouring it ou the dining room table when there came a ring at the basemeut door, and he said to himself: "There's Magio now, and that let's nie out of a tlx.'' Hut it wasn't Maggie. It was a great big trump Instead, and he wanted something to break his morning fast. "See here, Willie," said Mr. Bowser as he stood in the door; "did you ever; do a family washing?" "Iid I? Did 1?" replied the trump. "Well, you cau bet your life I have thousands of them. Didn't 1 do all the washing for my Invalid wife, who Is now hi heaven, for twelve long years? Then her happy soul passed away, and I went to a laundry, and I would have been, there yet earning my $20 a week if au Infernal submarine had not tor pedoed the whole business." "My ttife is sirk and our cook has gone." said Mr. Hnwser, "and h-re Is a whole Monday wash to do. If you will help me through with it I'll give you your breakfast and lunch and a big round dollar In cash." "Say no more. I'm your man. Hreakfast comes first and then the easy work. It was always a Joy to me to do a washing." Mr. liowser told him that he would have to get liiown breakfast, and led 111 in to the kitchen. The tramp smiled as he saw the nine eggs In a box and the cold potatoes left over by Mr. How ser. lie took one smell of tin- coffee (nt and shook his bead In a doubtful way mid soon had a new supply steam ing aw.-iy oil the stove, lie used a lib eral hunk of forty live cent butter to grease the way for the whole nine eggs, and then he broke them all Into the frying pan. When his slk'ed cold po tatoes were warmed up he was ready for his meal "You took the whole nine eggs!" said. I i -.1 ( r, I i.

"A wninnn does the viMihliig one way and a (ramp anoth er. It all comes to the same thing in the end. Now, then, you net those duds Into the hist tuli. and we v IH give them (he final performance." Mr. Itowser did so. und when he had finished, if he had had a sJass to look Info, he would have probably taken that tramp by the neck then mid there, lie was a blue man from top to toe. Ills hair, what there was of It, was as blue as the bine Danube. Ills eye brows were blue. There were fifty streaks up and down Ids face, and each was bluer than the other, lie had Introduced a new style of caris't slipper to the marketa blue one. Cold water was let Into the tub and the clothes stirred around, and after a quarter of an hour things didn't look ipilte as blue under the tramp's orders, Kach garment was lifted up and put through the rinuer. The ringer had always been of a pearl color. It was now blue. As (he Inst garment was passed through Mr. liowser stood back and said: "I believe we lime made some thun dering mistake about the thing!" "it can't he," was the reply. "Hut look at the blue! Am I going to wear a blue shirt around after this and sleep between blue sheets and lay my head on a blue pillow'" "Voti simply don't understand up to date methods of laundry work. will now bang the washing on (he line, and you'll see that blue lade away like a scared rabbit before a hound dog." Together they had hung out part of the clothes, when two things occurred to Interrupt them. Hack windows went up, and heads and shoulders were thrust out, and the alley fence began to be lined with children. There were laughing and tittering and calling, and somehow or other Mr. How-er got the Idea that they were ikliig fun at those blue garment. Also the cook came along. She had fallen and hurt her knee the previous liight miuI was too lame to walk. She entered the kitchen and saw the blue floor, the blue tubs, the blue water, the blue tramp, the blue Mr. liowser. mid she looked out and saw the blue clothes on the line. Willi a shriek she ran up stairs, and live minutes later, when Mr How ser followed her, he found her and Mrs. Howser looking out of one of the back windows. They turned at his steps and looked him up and down. Then both sank to the floor and broke into hysterical laughter. "What is It?" Innocently asked Mr liowser. Hut they could not answer him. lie turned and walked downstairs, not an gered, but a little grieved. Vj take it out on the tramp, but Willie had de parted,. So had the silver butter dish and the sugar bowk lie could stay no leaner. A feeling of blue depression had come over him, and he thought Mr. Howser might be a hard hearted man if aroused. Half an hour later Mrs. Howser and the cook came down ami got that wash ing out of sight and then pitched In and got Mr. Howser a fine luncheon Mrs. Howser had laughed her illness away. Mr. Bowser kept his ro on her ana dis ears open, but n remarks were made. Uow could they be? Mr. Bowser had been good vscv. verv good. New Question. Let women ballot!
