Following the general topic for the week of special lectures the speakers at the Bummer school for librarians at Karlham college, today, discussed the library andjta relation to the community, showing how It could be made more than a mere storehouse for books of reference and works of fiction. The speakers at the morning session, which began at 8 o'clock, were, Miss E. G. Browning, Indianapolis. Miss Henrietta I. Scranton, Elwood, MIsb N. W. Jayne, Bluffton, and Miss W. F. Ticer, Huntington. Miss Mary E. Ahern, Chicago, and Miss Elva L. Bascom, Madison, Wis., spoke at the afternoon meeting. The possibilities of the library as a social and civic center were discussed by Miss E. G. Browning, of the Indianapolis library. Miss Browning showed that the library had a place in th new movement for the establishment of social centers in all the cities of the country, and gave practical suggestions for the organization of the work in the smaller towns. Library Advertising. In her talk on library advertising, Miss Scranton discussed the bulletin to be used about town, and that to be used in the library, expressing the caution that they should not be given too much time and effort but should be simple and direct in appeal and 6hould have a definite use other than decorative. She considered also the annotated list, a most importar1 L r r.f advertising; the newr, which should appear w i V , ., I day; the new book shfli ; nr.-- uiiir .h of known books; complete s:ts of an author's works shown with portrait and sketch of life; letters to rural readers and annotated lists of books Interesting to them; the posting in the library from week to week poems of interest, and the use of the moving picture theatre to call attention to the library and to those books which the pictures frequently Illustrate. In conclusion, she gave as the two greatest advertisers a library could have, well stocked shelves and the well stocked librarian. "To make the library a moral and intellectual force in the community, to bring it In touch with the various

activities and interests of the town are

some of the duties of the librarian, according to the new conception," said Miss Nannie W. Jayne. Improvement of City.

It is no longer sufficient to do well '

the duties in the library, she said. The '

librarian should work in all movements for the improvement of the city. Educational exhibits may be secured and placed in it. Lists of books can be compiled and spread among the people, dealing with topics in which the town is interested. "The library may furnish amusements, to an extent, and should see that the town has lectures and other profitable entertainments." The talks this afternoon "On Beina; a Modern Librarian" and "What Everybody Wants," concluded the week of special lectures.

WASHINGTON, July 30. Having l-rctecte 1 .Van in Mulhall while he had bmk up a haze mound of accusations a alr.se the legislative activities of (he National Association of Manufacturers, the Overman lobby inquiry committee today began to pick this evidence to pieces for the purpose of finding out just what wrongful acts tho manufacturers committed. i "It Is not Mulhall, but the manufacturers who are on trial here," said a member of the committee today. 'Mulhall may have told many falsehoods, but if he convinced his employers that he could do certain things by the use of money, and they knowingly advanced him money to accomplish such ends, they are subject to criticism to what ever degree the ends to be attained were appropriate or i contrary to public policy." I J. P. Ralston, counsel for the Ameri- ;

the committee any questions in cross-

Mulhall today submitted a list of associations which he declared in 1909 were 'under the control of the National Council of Industrial Defense and an auxiliary of the N. A. M. Mulhall said the list was given to him by S. C. Schwedtman of St. Louis. The list Included the employers of Chicago, the Employers' Association of Indianapolis, the Illinois Lumber Dealers' Association of Chicago, of which Edward Hines was connected; the Citizens' Industrial Association of St. Louis, and the Citizens' Association of America, of which C.

Pennsylvania Freight Agent Issues Notices to Local Shippers.

Because of the teamsters' strike at Cincinnati, Freight Agent C. D. Slifer of the Pennsylvania offices at Richmond has notified local concerns and manufacturers through his assistants, that no less than carload shipments of

freight will be sent to that city. This includes Cincinnati delivery proper only and shipments of any size will be sent through to points beyond in any direction. The embargo placed on the company was issued by the general superintendent of the Pennsylvania railroad and notices were distributed to division superintendents and freight officials of lines entering Cincinnati. Bulletins announcing the embargo have been posted in all the freight offices of the Pennsylvania lines affected by the order. As many Richmond shippers as could be communicated with over the telephone were notified of the embargo. "When it is lifted they probably will be advised. Freight Agent Greenstreet of the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad here said that he had received no notice of an embargo on his road and could not state positively whether one would be issued or not. The teamsters' strike is the outgrowth of complicated labor difficulties and has been in progress for several days. The embargo placed on the Pennsylvania lines entering Cincinnati probably will not be lifted until the strikers have consented to re-

The wound is not serious, and did not require the treatment of a physician.
