BOOKS THAT ARE READ. A Librarian on tlio Change in ,•" Literary Taste. Froaeriek P. Cruuden, President of the I fbrnrlans' A of the United Mates R ndl taarianof the Public Library of St loui' hintbte city, and was seen yester £?£ th Palace. Mr. Crunden is per- V-s one of the best informed men In Amer ica on the subject of the public taste in read ing. and ho chatted for some time with a C ii.i. reporter on that line. "There, is a constant change going on, he sow "so far as public taste is concerned, ami the classes of books that are now being read are vastly different from those which commanded attention even two years ago. The laboring class is turning to the great li braries for information, and.it is really sur prising to note their | references, liislorl ial,. philosophic and economic questions seem to interest them most, and it is almost Impossible' now to meet the constant grow ins demand for that class of works. f li«e mechanics of the great cities, I find, are fully alive to the importance of the advance that ■is being made id modern thought, and they are keepins abreast uf the times in that re "'"Viction, of course, is still in great de mand, but even in that there has been a wonderful revulsion of sentiment. The call tor Scott's novels . has increased until it has amounted almost to a craze, while Dickens, Thackeray, Hugo, Balzac aud Dumas aro read more than for years. In fact there has been a return to the old standard authors, while Ouida and writers of her class aro almost entirely neglected. Hawthorne, Cooper and Irving among the American witters are most read at present, especially the first named, whose books are selling as they never sold before, and the libraries find it hard to supply their readers. • "There i- also a great demand for poetical works, and the old standard cets are com ing into vogue again. Especially is tins the case with Keats and Shelley. Of modern verse-writers Kipling, perhaps, is most Widely read, while' Bret Haiti- lias lost ground. The same may be said of the latter sc far as His prose works urn concerned, while of the later novelists Lew Wallace holds his own more decidedly than any other," _ . COAST ITEMS.

The reinstatement of Harry Fredericks, the jirofrssioniil runner, to the amateur athletic ranks recalls an incident which happened ten years ago and resulted in the warm friendship now existing between Fredericks and "Lon" Myers. The iucideut referred to occurred at the Caledonian games held in Jones' Wood in 1881. "Jack" rrazer, previous to the games, had a di.s- Kgreeiuent with Myers about the latter'a Minn ins ability. The upshot of tlie dispute was that Frazer took Fredericks, who was then unknown, in band and trail., d film for the one-mile run at these games M as to beat Myers. Fredericks mid Myers bad never seen each other until the day of th« race. Both uieii faced the starter in superb condition. Fredericks ran a beautiful race and finished a winner, as he thought, by ten yards, but it was discovered later that he st ippeu twenty yards short of the finish. Before ho couhl again get under way Myers had passed him and won. Alter that race Myers and Fredericks became fast friends, and that friendship still exists to-day. Fredericks accompanied Myers i.n his tour to England and Australia, -the hitter being at that time a professional. In the latter place both men got stranded. Fredericks was then compelled to turn professional in order to live and pet home, his money being . all gene. As these were the only professional races in which he took part the union de cided to act favorably on his application for reinstatement ■ ' • ■WHAT IT COSTS THE IIAKVAUD BOYS. • Athletics cost the Harvard boys just 532.378 last year.

The team will be sent by the Manhattan Athletic Club and will be composed exclusively of athletes of that club.. This action was decided on at the last meeting of the Board of Governors, and the men will arrive in the Old Country in time to compete in the English cham pionships, which will be held in Manches ter.

A special meeting of the Uumaby Cricket Club will bo held on Thursday evening, at 8 o'clock sharp, at 334% Sutter street, to hear the report of delegates and to consider the question of joining the California Cricket Association. . This meeting will be of great Importance, and it is hoped all the members who can be present will attend. The best individual scorn ever made In a first-class match was Mr. W. G. Grace's 314 for M. C. C. in Kent in 1876. There will probably be a cessation for some years of an exchange of visits between, the cricketers of England and Australia. The Australian team of 1800 made an abso lute failure in England, and the general sentiment in both countries seems to be that international cricket has been overdone. Australia may very well have this opinion when it considers a record of 13 matches won, 10 lost and 5 drawn as the result of the work of the season of 18' JO. The game of cricket between the San Francisco and Oakland clubs that was an nounced to be played at the Klinknerville grounds; Berkeley, Sunday last, did not take place, owing to the wet condition of the grounds.- Should Hie weather be fine during the rest of . the week the postponed, game will take place next Sunday.

In realty circles yesterday the record of the day's transactions justified the usual criticism of " a quiet Monday."

Marcus I'allasky, the famous Chicago cor poration attorney who is at the head of the syndicate formed to build a railroad from Fresno to tap the timber belt, is at the Pal ace. Mr. I'allasky is still a very young man, being yet under SO, but largely through his individual efforts $'.2,000,000 has been sub scribed for the purpose of ccnstrnctiuE the road, and the management of the finances is in his hands. Associated with him is M:jor Osmun, the editorof the Detroit Times, who was private secretary to General Alger, and nt one time Secretary of Stato under Gov ermr Hull of Michigan. '• We have not, completed thfl survey ns yot," said Mr. l'alhisk>" last nijjtit, "hut our engineers— tlie best that could bo employed — are at work, and expect to liave about 100 ntiles of road constructed by summer, if you count March, Arril and May as spring months in this "state. In order to tap tlie timber belt about seventy miles of main liuo will be required, with about twenty-five or thirty miles of laterals. To construct and C(|iiip the road will require about $20,000 a mile, on which basin the road would cost, in tbe abrogate, about all we have subscribed. "We have already secured a. most satis factory traffic agreement with the •Southern Pacific and are assured of tueir friendship in the enterprise. We. are iiot opposing them at all, for with their SoUO,Ot>o,ooo we could ill .afford to do that, but on the con trary our line will prove a valuable feeder fur them. "In the district we propose to penetrato are billions of feat of timber, which can only reach the irarket at present by being tliimed down from the mountains, and as tlie sup plies cannfit.be tluined to l!ie lumbermen you Will have no trouble to realize that they arf working at present uuder great disad vantages. Iv addition, however, to the timber the new road will open up a most fruitful section of valley land, and we calculate that we will be able at ouco to earn a nice rate of interest on. the money in vested."
