Uncle Sam's Marine Band Is Now 116 Years Old WASHINGTON A recent writer, in discoursing about the Marine MM says that tt came Into being years ago. hi n President Joint Adatu approved an art establishing it as a permanent organization The or.gmal law provided for a fife and drum

Mediterranean when an Irresistible longing for MM real music came over him While ashoie lie uas delighted and pleased with the performance of a Sicilian regimental baud and at om conceived a plan for insuriug plenty of music during the remainder of the voyage. He at once blandly invited the musicians on board hia vessel for the ostensible purpose of playing for a ball Probably induced by the pros

pect of receiving a liberal compensation, the invitation with alacrity.

Soon after the musicians with their instruments had gone on board Tup tain McNeil suddenly found it necessary to hoist anchor and get under way for the United States. The Sicilians protested but in vain; the music loving captain carried them bodily off and was entertained by their plaing all the way No authentic record showing what finally became- of these Italian musi fans is now In existence as many of the Marine o.rps archives were destroyed in 1M4 It s shown. bfflfW, in official records that shortly after the organization of the Marine corps Lieutenant Colonel Henderson brouuht fn.rn Naples a group of 13 Italian musicians, whoso addition to the orgauiza citMi made of tt an instrumental uand

One of the Greatest

ALREADY one of the greatest of the libraries f the world and the large.-t and most important in the western hemisphere, it la apparent that the library of congress Is to become national in the broadest and moat inclusive I sense It is that already, but not to

the degree that will be true of it after awhile The policy with regard to the library of congress is briefly yet fully stated by Mr Herbert Putnam librarian since 199, in these words In each country there should be one library as nearly as possible comprehensive. This means indefinite ac--cumulation and preservation. In the United States that library Is the Na tional library at the national capital

Its possession of the unusual book, or tfcfl little-used book, may enable the local libraries to get along without them A book here is available to the entire country, and this means a great saving to the country as a whole Mr. Putnam points out that the w(,rd comprehensive as used by him. does not nifn the purchase of every tr.ing in prim If congress each year were to gle he library all the funds for which it asks, there would still be exercised in toe purcha 0f books that selection which has been the tiollcy of the past The work of selection if even carried into the copyright deposits, only a portion of which are placed in the library proper "Mere bookstarks coat little." adds Mr. Putnam. "A against the cost of the main establishment the cost of housing the accessories is a relatively small one At the present rate of increase, which is about eighty to ninety thousand volumes a year. It would not exceed one per cent ot the cost of the building "So far as the library building is for the reader, for exhibition purposes, and for the purposes of ordinary administration, it will be good for an Inden alte length of time, in spite of our annual additions In the a of volumes and pamphlets "
