II will be seen that the names which
should occupy the blank space in the
body Of the bond as sureties are not to
be found. Then the question arises are
the names S. X. Shankland and JOS. T.
| Bliss at the foot of the document wit
nesses or what. We have the opinion
OF two attorneys that the document is
not such as required by law, and even II
30 the death Of one Of the sureties, JOS.
T. Bliss renders a breach in it.
Section So Of the laws Of 1883. page 81,
says "a new or additional bond shall be
required whenever the amount of mon
ey to come into the hands of such treas
urer shall be equal to three.quarters of
the penal sum of such boEd, or upon the
failure, death or removal from the coun
try Of any of the sureties, or for other
sufficient reason.
In this case the amount Of money in
! the hands Of the treasurer is over three
| times the amount Of the bond and again
one of the sureties, admitting that dec.
eased ever was SUCH is dead.
The treasurer cannot be censured fol
giving such a bond, the fault lays with
one elected by the people to guard their
interests and who lays claim to doing
SO. Whose duty was it to see to Ibis
matter? Is the law such that a person
able TO read the English language coulC
remain ignorant of his duties to the PEG
pie? Read the following and Judge 70,
yourself:
Section 81 Of the same law and page
"All such bonds shall be fled with tn
county clerk and in case Of the breach o
any condition thereof. the director shall
cause IN action to be commenced ant
presented thereon in the corporal,
name of the school township.
That q breach in the above bone
exists is undispu,Ab and is not deniee
even by the director OF anybody else
But II such a state of affairs existed ane
anybody else was thus derelict in hi
duties, what a howl and cry would be
made by the n now culpable. /
would be: "The people are being rob
bed, the money is going to the whiske,
ring, etc."
Or again, If some man less endowe,
with worldly goods than the presen
treasurer, though equally as honest
should give such a bond from necessity
how quick would this officer whose dut
it is to attend to the matter, discover tn
flaws or il not the officer Ia pass upoI
the paper, how quick would he say tina
the one, If any should allow such a stat
Of affairs to exist, was prostituting hi
Office for personal gain.
The fact Of the business would seen
to be that there exists a sort Of Mutua
Benefit and Admiration Society, draw
from the school board aud county dads
which is beyond the pale of the law, o
as the territorial superintendent Ia
said, governed by $40 law In heaven o
on earth"
This state of affairs calls for a remed,

Sudden and Sad.

Many in this city were yesterday
startled and saddened by the news that
spread from lip to lip that b. i. Keeline,
more Familiarity known as Frank Kee-
line, had been found dead in his bed. 1t
seems that Mr.. Keeline, who is largely
interested with his father in the cattle
business, intended to start yesterday
morning for the west to see about the
shipment of some stock. He was in
usual health on retiring for the night,
but having a tedious journey before him
and the baby being a little fretty, he
sought rest in an ad iacent room to that
occupied by his wife and child. Not
having risen early, as was his intention,
his wife, on going TO him to
awaken him, found that he was dead. A
greater shock and sadder blow can hard
ly be imagined. DIR. Hart was called,
and from examination it appeared that
during the night he must have been
taken off by heart disease. Death came
to him apparently without a struggle, his
form lying there 50 naturally as if he had
simply fallen asleep. Mr.. Keeline was
a young man who had a wide ~acquain-
lance, and held high rank in business
circles, while socially he was highly es-
teemed. Surrounded by everything TO
make life happy, with bright prospects,
before him, the audiences of the com.
ing OF death carries a strange, sad CON

n Buffalo Painter Proposes 20 Make
the Trip in a Rubber Ball.

| Special to the Globe Democrat
BUFFALO, n. V, September 1i.-Oli.
yer Wormald, of this city, by occupation
q painter, offers to so over the falls in a
rubber ball fifteen feet in diameter for
the sum of 81 600, to DO guaranteed by
the railroad companies or by private i'm
bursemont. The matter has been thor
oughly canvassed, and has enlisted the
cooperation of w. G.. Graham, of Cleve-
land, and Peter s.. Grams, a business man
of this city. Mr.. Wormald's ball, he
SAYS, will be fifteen feet in diameter, with
in which there will be sufficient space for
the adjustment of an apparatus which he
claims will keep him in an upright po-
sition while the ball is in motion. 1t
will consist of three-fourth inch rubber
covered with a close braiding of tarred
rope, so as to prevent injury to the rub.
Der should the sphere strike the rocks.
But this p%recaution is scarcely necessary
as Mr.. Wormald claims that the ball will
receive sufficient momentum to hurl it
far from the falls where he expects to be
picked up by boats. After having been
inoculated with a quantity ct air to keep
the occupant alive for fifteen minutes,
the ball will be Theoretically closed by
means of hot rubber applied with a brush
and the netting fastened by means of
snap springs. Mr.. Wormald is a man
of small stature, weighing about 1876
pounds and measuring about D feet &
inches. In complexion he is a blonde
with blue eyes of a merry, dancing tenn
permanent, and a mouth which bespeaks
determination. Being n fresco artist
ana sign-letteror, he is accustomed to
dizzy heights, and therefore the word
afraid" has no meaning for him. His
theories are clearly Expressed. The
plan devised by MIR. Wormald is not a
new one, but the man is, and that is
encouragement for the furthorance
of the experiment. WormRld also claims
as a hacker Geo. Doll, of this city, who
says he will stake 81, 000 on tho venture
alone. Wormald was born in London,
Eng, anu is about 80 years of age, at
which period a man ought to know what
he is about. His father is a prominent
machinist at Perth Amboy, and the in
ventor of Il street car motor, Oliver has
a wife and two small children, for whom
he displays great affection, but such con-
tidence has he in his venture hat he con-
siders it no sacrifice to his future. He
will again visit the falls with his man
ayers tomorrow afternoon.

old gentleman entering the parlor and
ordering Durham to leave the premises.
